[ElNono]

yawn

[DPG21920]

Spurs transition defense has been atrocious.

[LakerHater]

Spurs parted like the red sea & he blew the lay up!

[itzsoweezee]

absolutely horrible D by Parker

[Darius Bieber]

[Libri]

[DapDaGenius]

No CJZero on twitter does

Thanks. I thought that was another name that you went by.

[RD2191]

Lol Portland gonna win by 30 to this joke team

[james evans]

absolutely horrible D by Parker
when dudes see him guarding them, their eyes just light up. it's as if he has on cement shoes when someone's coming at him. wtf at 6'0 tall, he should get low and be forcing guys into jumpers

[Juggity]

lol anyone who questions Tiago's defensive impact

[timtonymanu]

lol anyone who questions Tiago's defensive impact

Or Green's for that matter

[ElNono]

best team in the NBA beating the team they're supposed to beat... nothing to see here...

[DapDaGenius]

Please make both, Parker.

[bklynspursfan]

I guess pop is tryng to see how the spurs fair with no duncan and manu. Maybe this is a game "for the future"

[RD2191]

:lolallowing 100 to the Jazz

[Captivus]

Me gusta tu falsa calma...jaja. Me gustan esas conclusiones post partido que metes.

:lmaoBest team in NBA, gtfo

31-8 = best team in the NBA... fact...

[Juggity]

spurs better fuckin' win this. STdalamon is salivating :lol

[bklynspursfan]

The fact that Portland is waiting for us tomorrow night.

May have been said already since I'm replying late but spurs and blazers are off tomorrow

[RD2191]

This team is going nowhere fast, 2011 all over again. I love the Spurs but I ain't in denial

[Darius Bieber]

31-8 = best team in the NBA... fact...

To be the best, you have to beat the best.

[ElNono]

why is Utah even calling a timeout? they're tanking

[313]

:lmaoBest team in NBA, gtfo

Wizards blew out the Heat tonight

[ElNono]

To be the best, you have to beat the best.

Nah, you just need to beat more than the other guys... that's how the regular season works

[james evans]

this resting bullshit again ahahaha. luckily it didn't catch up with us tonight

[DatBoyGood]

Coasting...OR NAH?

[DapDaGenius]

This playstation commercial is ass.

[Darius Bieber]

Nah, you just need to beat more than the other guys... that's how the regular season works

I thought people on here say the regular season doesn't matter?

[timtonymanu]

:lol Darius Bieber per par

My nigga rob :toast

[Hoops Czar]

lol anyone who questions Duncan's defensive impact

Fify

[RD2191]

Wizards blew out the Heat tonight
Heat are back to back defending champs, tbh.

[bklynspursfan]

To be the best, you have to beat the best.

Not really. Miami struggled against the NBA's elite during their runs. That's just false. Playoffs are a completely new/different season.

[ElNono]

I thought people on here say the regular season doesn't matter?

it largely doesn't, but until the playoffs start is all we have

[ElNono]

Burke channeling his UofM days haha

[LakerHater]

Holy Shit!

[ElNono]

one has to wonder why that dude wasn't shooting 3s all game :lol

[RD2191]

National TV

[BatManu20]

Trey Burke did this often at Michigan too. Best late-game 3-point shooter in college last year

[Hoops Czar]

Can't guard the three!!!!!!!

[bklynspursfan]

Pop screwed up Duncan's chance to get another double double :td

[DapDaGenius]

Can't guard the three!!!!!!!

[DapDaGenius]

I forgot he n-word is allowed on SpursTalk.

[313]

I'm a UofM fan so I'm lowkey not even mad at Burke Prosper young nigga.

[LakerHater]

Tim on the court!?

[james evans]

Not really. Miami struggled against the NBA's elite during their runs. That's just false. Playoffs are a completely new/different season.
this is true. there has been many examples of teams not being able to beat certain teams during the regular season, but when they play them in the playoffs, they destroy them. playing a team every game for 2 weeks is a lot different than playing them once every 5 weeks

[Juggity]

all the pressure's on now

[313]

Big balls Belli

[Captivus]

I forgot he n-word is allowed on SpursTalk.

You mean "Neal"?

[DapDaGenius]

Damn....should've trapped them hoes at 90.

[timtonymanu]

:lol Jefferson

Anti clutch like always

[BatManu20]

Duncan and Jefferson showing each other love

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

lol Timmy just coming in to get his body a bit warmed up

[ElNono]

best team in the NBA beating the team they're supposed to beat... nothing to see here...

[bklynspursfan]

This "win" should grant some of our guys an earful from Pop which should equal an angry/motivated team against Portland.

[TXstbobcat]

31 - 8 :flag:

[DapDaGenius]

You mean "Neal"?

Yeah. I thought they locked him as a "HWSNBN".

[Bruno]

Will ST melt down after a W?

[ace3g]

at least I got Melissa to end the telecast

[loveforthegame]

Leonard: 15pts, 7rbs, 6as, 2blks, 3stls

[timtonymanu]

Hopefully Pop rips into their asses and makes them more motivated against Portland.

[ElNono]

god Jalen Rose is awful

[Captivus]

tied game Pelicans

[313]

I forgot he n-word is allowed on SpursTalk.

nincompoop?

[TheGoldStandard]

Bench looked really blah tonight but all these lineup changes is taking its toll.. Pop need to just stick with a group regardless of the injuries..

[DapDaGenius]

nincompoop?

:lol

[TheGoldStandard]

god Jalen Rose is awful

ESPN is full of Jokers and fools.. not worth watching there Spurs coverage after the game

[CGD]

Trey Burke has that clutch gene. Those threes he hit reminded me of that amazing game against Kansas. I like what the Jazz have in Kanter, and Alec. Favors is a bit overrated to me.

[Captivus]

Good game, good night!

[Mikeanaro]

Porky last minutes were awful, but a Win is a Win.

[CGD]

Add Hayward, and Gobert to the mix. We got a good core.

Yeah, though I think they move Hayward. He's not worth the money he's asking, plus the Jazz will have a decent pick to replace his production. Hayward got some bad advice on the extension talks I think.

[DMC]

What do you expect when we have CoJo, Ayres and Marco on defense?

Spurs were uninspired.

Look at the bright side: No longer is the bench bailing out the starters...

[Bruno]

Jazz have a good core of young players but they don't have this one or two great player(s) that a team need to be a contender. They'll need to strike gold in draft/FA.

[TampaDude]

Spurs build a big lead, and per par, Pop rests the starters, which lets the other team go on a late run.

ALMOST blew that one, though. Fortunately, Belinelli hit those CLUTCH FTs at the end to seal the deal. :toast

At least Pop will have something to bitch at them about between now and Friday night. :ihit

GO SPURS GO!!!!!

[TheGoldStandard]

These rotations are horrible, Manu and Beli need to stay on the 2nd unit especially with Kawhi picking up the slack in the starting lineup.

[Budkin]

That almost turned into another Memphis game... fuck this not being able to close teams out shit. At least we got the win but damn.

[DapDaGenius]

ESPN is full of Jokers and fools.. not worth watching there Spurs coverage after the game

Do you like Grantland? Well, the videos on Grantland with Bill Simmons and Jalen Rose?

[TheGoldStandard]

Do you like Grantland? Well, the videos on Grantland with Bill Simmons and Jalen Rose?

I can watch a few minutes before I get irritated.. Bill Simmons and Jalen Rose rub me the wrong way.

[Bruno]

I dunno dude, you saw Burke playing out there. We'll make the playoffs next season if we draft a top 5 pick.

So you think Burke can be your franchise player?

[CGD]

I dunno dude, you saw Burke playing out there. We'll make the playoffs next season if we draft a top 5 pick.

Burke is going to be good in 2 years. A top 5 pick to pair him with is critical though. I really like what I saw from Kantar tonight, but I'd make everyone not named Burke available for an all star piece. Jazz are going to be a nice team soon enough.

[TheGoldStandard]

I can see Utah taking the place of Dallas in the next year or two as a 7th or 8th seed team, the west is way too stacked for them to break through though.

[DMC]

Kanter looks good against shitty defense. He had some moves and shots tonight he normally doesn't get. Spurs play really piss poor most of the game and won it without much of an issue minus some flukey ass shots from Burke. Ayres can't defend for shit, and that's why Kanter went off. He'd be good on the Spurs, but it seems this Spurs team gives run of the mill guys career nights even though the Spurs still win. All that talk about KLove going for 42 and yet they lost. How many mid level bigs have the Spurs given career nights?

[cd021]

These rotations are horrible, Manu and Beli need to stay on the 2nd unit especially with Kawhi picking up the slack in the starting lineup.

Who do we start at 2 guard? Mills or Joseph?

[TheGoldStandard]

Who do we start at 2 guard? Mills or Joseph?

Joseph for the first 5 minutes, bring in Manu.. Mills comes in at the 1 with manu and beli handling the ball down the court with the 2nd unit.

[Tuddy]

The jazz should have traded Jefferson and/or Millsap and not let them walk. They knew they had 4 decent rotation bigs and couldnt pay them all. Could have got someone decent for them or picks at least

[Spanklin]

We're so lucky Burke played like shit. Luck is all a Spurs fan ever needed. Luck that we hit the lotto for David, luck we hit it again for Timmy, luck Westbrick went down last year, luck Cleveland could never form a team around Lebron in 2007, luck Robby Horry didn't get called for knocking Steve Nash into the bleachers in 2005...

We have destiny on our side and tonight is only more evidence.

[ElNono]

Which one of you said Burke was overrated? was it you Elnono?

Who is Burke?

San Antonio Spurs @spurs
(https://twitter.com/spurs)The Spurs shot at least 50% for the 6th consecutive game, the 1st time since the 92-93 season when they did it in 13 straight contests.

[TheGoldStandard]

Every bone in my body wants to just dislike Jeff Ayres but I just can't help but like his spirit, guy is humble and is playing well just needs to show up on defense. He's active just not really strong bodying people up or getting up to block shots.

I agree. I love his energy. He is improving, nice to see the early season minutes finally starting to payoff. Bobbling the ball less, finishing strong. He is still rail thin and can't protect the rim but he generally does a good job on the glass. For 10-15 minutes he is becoming a decent option.

[DapDaGenius]

I'd love to see some lobs getting mixed into our offense. Hopefully that turns into a good weapon for Ayres.

Ayres seems like a cool dude, glad to see he is getting adjusted.

[boutons_deux]

"Ayres joked he never knew hands were so bad before joining Spurs: "I never had to worry about anybody passing me the ball in my NBA career."

how about before the NBA? catching a ball ain't exactly an optional skill for any player at any level

[look_at_g_shred]

Any postgame interview videos?

[spurs10]

Who is Burke?
A crime writer out of Louisiana and Montana, James Lee Burke.

[Raven]

Which one of you said Burke was overrated? was it you Elnono?

i consider him the worst pg in the league. Basically i laugh at you every time you come here, how can you say this guy is any good when tony wasn't even trying and was still able to get to the rim at will.. shooting sub .400 isn't talent.
