Game 34 - Clippers @ Spurs - Jan 4th 7:30pm (CST)

[weeks]

Clippers @ Spurs
Saturday 4th, 7:30pm

After an embarrassing 92-115 loss in LA, the Spurs look to regain some of their lost mojo against that 'other' Los Angeles team.

http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2011/1219/la_g_clippers01jr_576.jpg

The Clippers (23-12) have won seven of their last 10, and come to San Antonio after beating the Mavericks in their own building, 119-112.
However, their place as the 4th seed in the west is now in jeopardy with the loss of Chris Paul, who will be out until ASB for a separated shoulder.

The Spurs (25-8), on the other hand, have won 6 of their last 10, and are lusting for revenge against a team that embarrassed them December 16th.
Two nights after a disappointing loss against one of the worst teams in the league (New York Knicks), the Spurs should come out with some fire and energy. Or at least we sure hope so.

Let's go Spurs!

[RD2191]

Lose lose game. If we lose it's embarrassing, if we win it's because CP3 is out. Sit Parker. Start Patty.

[jeebus]

No Diaw. Maybe some Thomas tonight?

[r0drig0lac]

clippers without cp3 = far from elite, just saying ..

[Bruno]

No Diaw. Maybe some Thomas tonight?

Nope, he is still in Austin with the Toros.

[weeks]

thanks to whoever fixed the title and standardized it!

[jeebus]

Nope, he is still in Austin with the Toros.
Hm. Then that means BANE.

[weeks]

Lose lose game. If we lose it's embarrassing, if we win it's because CP3 is out. Sit Parker. Start Patty.
yeah, that's why i hate it when injuries happen. in my perfect world we always play everyone full strength vs full strength, i hate games like this!

[Kyuui-Musikq]

Hm. Then that means BANE.

I man can dream. I wanna see him play against the clips' bigs. I'll be mightily disappointed if I see either Ayers or Bonner with over 15 minutes tonight

[TheGoldStandard]

Bonner getting lot of rope tonight. Tiago will be on the bench a lot

[Kyuui-Musikq]

Bonner getting lot of rope tonight. Tiago will be on the bench a lot

I'm so fed up with Tiago. Honestly, at some point tonight, I hope Griffin or Jordan dunk on him so hard the ball flies at his face with such momentum he falls straight on his ass. Maybe a fracture in the nose area, idk.

[TheGoldStandard]

I don't hate Tiago but he will get pulled quickly for Ayres.

[TheGoldStandard]

Completely off topic Andy Reid is an incredibly horrible coach.

[RD2191]

Tiago gonna be on about 5 different posters tonight:lol

[TheGoldStandard]

Tiago gonna be on about 5 different posters tonight:lol

Tiago some night will have a big vaginal prolapse during a game, I hope during that moment no one is close to him.

[timmy2003]

Keep it up Spurs

[jeebus]

He was fat the last game too. He's definitely out of shape, the little butterball.

kyle korver 103 consecutive games with a 3

I was waiting for Tiago to get a three second call before Griffin came back down to Earth on that up fake.

[TXstbobcat]

Wow ayers lol

[313]

Danny Green looking like a clown lol what was he doing

[Spur-Addict]

Don't know who thought that was a good idea. Stick to open jumpers and aggravating people

[TXstbobcat]

Tony wow!!!

[313]

Tony heard yall

[Johnsyounger]

Clippers D worse than ours lol

[Expert]

defense by committee

[weeks]

31 points..

..two minute warning

[r0drig0lac]

it looks like 2012 spurs ball movement

[Johnsyounger]

Spurs shooting 83 percent HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[TheGoldStandard]

Clip look awful

[TXstbobcat]

Leonard!!

[Expert]

that was lemonade

[apalisoc_9]

Fools Gold win tbh....It's probably better if they lose today so we can see actual changes tbh

[ElNono]

Clip look awful

Coasting

[weeks]

i'm not sure how much of this is the clips really missing paul, and how much is the spurs finally getting their shit together
i mean, there's no way we should be shooting 89%, clearly that's gonna cool off. but they aren't bullshit mostly, it's a combination of good shooting + sharing the ball.

clips not looking very good at all

[Expert]

bad pass causes Leonard to turn the ball over.

[313]

Coastinghahahha

[TXstbobcat]

Ayers!! Lol

[313]

ERRORS

[Johnsyounger]

Errors listening still....

[r0drig0lac]

do not look now, but Spurs are putting +20

[ajballer4]

Wow. Just wow. Best quarter of the year so far IMO

[timmy2003]

impressive first quarter

[ElNono]

Hustle makes a world of difference, tbh...

[TXstbobcat]

Great spurs 1st quarter

[Budkin]

Glad to see the Spurs came to play tonight.

[timmy2003]

great offense and terrific defense

[313]

clips not looking very good at allClips defense is trash. I imagine it would be a bit better with CP3 tho ofc

[weeks]

this first quarter definitely felt like a statement. 37-17.

[Spurs Brazil]

great quarter, much more energy than last game

[timmy2003]

Pop got mad at home losses

[ElNono]

Also, FIBA play clearly affecting Tony... you can tell he's gassed already...

[timmy2003]

the best quarter of the season so far

[twincam]

Keep sharing.......stay aggressive. Do not let up

[TheGoldStandard]

Need to do this for 3 more quarters

[r0drig0lac]

this room was to balance, since in some of the rooms probably the clippers score 40 points

[Expert]

if we can go into the half up 25 or 30 the Clippers fold in the 3rd I think. If we lose 10 to them in the second quarter, then we struggle the rest of this game.

[jeebus]

holy fuck, Clippers only had 1 rebound in the 1st? were they sending the guards to get a rebound instead of the forwards?

[Johnsyounger]

Meanwhile Saints already with 2 TOs WTF

[bklynspursfan]

We were going to do this regardless of whether CP3 was there or not I think. Maybe not this soon in the game but eventually. This team has responded well to losses all year. And a loss like they had the other day, we could be in for a 8-10 game winning streak now

[r0drig0lac]

Hustle makes a world of difference, tbh...

[jeebus]

Meanwhile Saints already with 2 TOs WTF
avante

[313]

holy fuck, Clippers only had 1 rebound in the 1st? were they sending the guards to get a rebound instead of the forwards?
We're not missing much

[r0drig0lac]

holy fuck, Clippers only had 1 rebound in the 1st? were they sending the guards to get a rebound instead of the forwards?
1 rebound ..lol that is true

[Kyuui-Musikq]

Clips out rebounded 16 to 1

[Prime Time]

Ayres gets too much hate. I know he sucks, But damn some people really want B:lolynes over him...

[james evans]

this game is looking like one of my nba2k14 scores. the clippers without chris paul look like the clippers of the 80s, the spurs without parker move the ball around and still win. this says a lot but many will continue to ignore it.

[TXstbobcat]

Mills!!

[weeks]

holy fuck, Clippers only had 1 rebound in the 1st? were they sending the guards to get a rebound instead of the forwards?
hard to get a rebound when we shoot damn near 90% from the field

[KL2]

Leonard is an incredibly underrated passer.

[Expert]

every time Leonard gets a ball past to him it is at his feet.

[$pursDynasty]

like Clippers announcers just said, there aren't many rebounds to be had when your opponent is shooting 80+%

[313]

What was Danny doing lol

[Kyuui-Musikq]

We almost the best FG% ever for a single quarter according to the clips announcers

[Expert]

stop slinging long three pointers dammit.

[jeebus]

Ayres gets too much hate. I know he sucks, But damn some people really want B:lolynes over him...
I'd rather play nando than Airs

[TXstbobcat]

Manu!!

[r0drig0lac]

clippers missing due to B2B

[jeebus]

YES! Chuck those 3's!

[TheGoldStandard]

Danny can't buy a bucket

[Johnsyounger]

Pop furious as per usual

[ElNono]

need to go to the rack... Manu's layup... more of that

[313]

Danny can't buy a bucket
He's a scrub.

[Expert]

someone needs to hang a foot in Manu Ginobli ass for not driving the lane every single time. They have no defense.

[Staplepuffs27]

We were bound to cool off... still getting good looks. good timeout. time to regroup

[ElNono]

someone needs to hang a foot in Manu Ginobli ass for not driving the lane every single time. They have no defense.

Well, you would think Leonard can post somebody up too... but we're doing drive and kick -> 3 point ball

[twincam]

Green is the Jeremy Lin of the NBA. He's had his moment. He is done.

[Expert]

manager nobly always tries to bury the team with three pointers when it gets moving like this. It works about 70/30 that they end up coming back.

[r0drig0lac]

Green is the Jeremy Lin of the NBA. He's had his moment. He is done.
lin> green and it's not even close

[jeebus]

lol nando coming in. hopefully for Airs.

[ElNono]

digging those red warmups

[Prime Time]

Green is the Jeremy Lin of the NBA.
wut. Jeremy Lin is the Jeremy Lin of the NBA

[TheGoldStandard]

Uh oh a Nando sighting

[$pursDynasty]

here comes SJax look out

[Expert]

SJax really enjoyed that Clips win over us, time for some payback

[Johnsyounger]

SJax looking to bang someones wife tbh

splitter looks pretty good against teams that aren't trying.

[RD2191]

SJax looking to bang someones wife tbh

Nando out.

[313]

okay, who is Jeremy Lin of the NBA if not Jeremy Lin of the NBA?

[LakerHater]

Stephen Jackson just walked over to Pop and gave him a hug as he checked in.

[Expert]

I feel like the referee get the out of bounds calls wrong about 50 percent of the time.

[Splits]

Stephen Jackson just walked over to Pop and gave him a hug as he checked in.


did Pop steal his headband?

[ElNono]

time to Hack a Jordan(tm)

[jeebus]

time to Hack a Jordan™
fify

[Expert]

did Pop steal his headband?
no, pop let him go again.

[twincam]

So weak this guy

[timmy2003]

keep up the D

[timmy2003]

[Johnsyounger]

I live in LA so I'm watching local. Clips announcers are dumbfounded by whats happening. They can't believe it LMAO

[TXstbobcat]

Splitter!!

[ElNono]

robdiaz been surprisingly quiet, tbh :lol

[Johnsyounger]

Brees another pick WTF.

[TheGoldStandard]

Pleasantly surprised by all this effort.

[Expert]

[jeebus]

Brees another pick WTF.
Yeah that game isn't as fun as the previous. I lost interest in it tbh.

[Mikeanaro]

Why they let Jax walk away? WHYYYYYYYYY????????? :downspin:

[Staplepuffs27]

robdiaz been surprisingly quiet, tbh :lol"surprisingly"

[Expert]

if I am Chris Paul, I call these guys up and tell them if they lose by 40 points I am NOT coming back this year.

[weeks]

duncan straight stole that ball from griffin.
this is getting embarrassing

[313]

Didn't the Clips keep their starters in to pad stats in that first game?

We're getting revenge per par and we'll rest our starters

[RD2191]

I want 75 dammit.:pctoss

[KaiRMD1]

I know Chris Paul isn't playing but Jesus Christ........ol' sport

[ElNono]

CP3 is good, just not 30pt good... Spurs just didn't coast this one...

[Johnsyounger]

2nd time Clips announcers mentioned Bonner saying Pop ripped the team harder than ever....

[timmy2003]

I can't believe what i am watching

[Arcadian]

:lol all starters playing in this blowout

Not complaining though...team needs a decisive victory.

[Expert]

tale of two halves however, if we come out after the break and look like shit.

[ElNono]

refs with the late whistle goods

[weeks]

timmy: no way he was gonna make that!!

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy!!!!!!!!!

[ElNono]

Maun with the CP3 flop... nice

[TheGoldStandard]

Clips just mailing it in... lazy 3 and lazy transition D

[weeks]

gino really taking a hit. damn.

[TXstbobcat]

Tony making it look easy

[Johnsyounger]

whats most points in a half for Spurs this season?

[jeebus]

Clips just mailing it in... lazy 3 and lazy transition D
They need a real coach to call in in the 2nd half to motivate them, someone like Vinny Of The Black.

[ElNono]

They need a real coach to call in in the 2nd half to motivate them, someone like Vinny Of The Black.

Doc got this... "play harder, hardeeeeeer"

[TXstbobcat]

Manu and 1. !!!!!!!!

[weeks]

whats most points in a half for Spurs this season?
66 i believe against portland.
that's what bill said anyway

[Mikeanaro]

Green stinks

[Expert]

can we save some of these points for other games?

[ElNono]

plz Pop play Manu in the 2nd half... need another 20pt game

[r0drig0lac]

even all conspiring against clippers (B2B and without their best player) that has to be some kind of record

[TheGoldStandard]

Such a pleasing game from all aspects.

[Budkin]

From the worst game, to one of the best games. Ladies and Gentlemen, your San Antonio Spurs.

[james evans]

SJax looking to bang someones wife tbh
people up here keep throwing this rumor around, but if this is true that's the reason he was let go, then why is parker still with the team?

[Expert]

Such a pleasing game from all aspects.
not really. The Clippers did not even show up tonight so far.

[ElNono]

:lol doubling them at the half

[Johnsyounger]

Spurs clearly have something left in the tank. Lets hope we see it come playoff time...

[ElNono]

team clearly broken though

[Mikeanaro]

Green failed the Magic Johnson buzzer beater

[timmy2003]

Great first half

[timmy2003]

Just can't expect anything more

[apalisoc_9]

:lmao getting wet over this game...

[weeks]

35 points up.
we could make zero shots the entire quarter and keep the lead.

[TheGoldStandard]

Parker contributed to the ball movement

[Mikeanaro]

people up here keep throwing this rumor around, but if this is true that's the reason he was let go, then why is parker still with the team?
Because black dudes don´t do cunnilingus, Tony has no problem with that

[Expert]

this is a stat padding game for the Spurs.

[ElNono]

time to empty the bench

[Budkin]

Good game for the bench to get experience. Even if the Clips come almost all the way back.

[Johnsyounger]

people up here keep throwing this rumor around, but if this is true that's the reason he was let go, then why is parker still with the team?
SJax<Parker

[RD2191]

I fully expect for some Clipper scrub to go off in the 3rd.

[Expert]

35 points up.
we could make zero shots the entire quarter and keep the lead.
you need to remember that we have given up 40 point quarters more than once this season.

[Expert]

time to empty the bench
I would not do that until they do.

[ElNono]

I would not do that until they do.

you're not Pop though

[apalisoc_9]

Should have recalled thomas instead of decolo

[weeks]

you need to remember that we have given up 40 point quarters more than once this season.
true, true.
let's see if doc can earn his stripes and light a fire under their ass.

the wind, it tells me no.

[Spur-Addict]

They could at least try. Mailed this shit in quickly

[ElNono]

The only question is when Matt Barnes is gonna take a cheap shot and get ejected, tbh
