Fri. Jan 17 7:30 PMParker is ? (Shin)

[313]

102-89 Spurs
:toast

[monkeypunk]

If Parker is hobbled or out then our chances tonight are minimal. If Parker is feeling good then Spurs by 8.

Either way, excited for some real competition!

:hungry:

[RD2191]

Spurs lose if they allow more than 100 tonight.

[Dex]

Aldridge gonna be channeling 2005 Stoudemire on us tonight.

[spurs10]

Patty needs to have the game of his life with Tony questionable. Still feeling good about our chances tonight. I think we will take it. Big game! Plus, Melissa is bound to bring us good luck!!! Thanks for the thread SA! :flag:

[timtonymanu]

Aldridge gonna be channeling 2005 Stoudemire on us tonight.

Portland has a lot of guys that can go off: Lillard, Aldridge, Matthews, Batum, Mo.

There could also be a scrub like McCollum or T Rob that has the game of their lives.

[timtonymanu]

Diaw on Aldridge please!

I'm gonna be ticked if Ayres/Duncan is the lineup tonight.

[bklynspursfan]

Diaw on Aldridge please!

I'm gonna be ticked if Ayres/Duncan is the lineup tonight.

Yea I agree, after the job he did on Dirk/Love I can't see any reason how/why Pop doesn't start him again. Though you never know I guess lol

[apalisoc_9]

Parker is going to play ( Hopefully not as this game means really nothing) but he's probably going to get limited minutes.

[slick'81]

Should be a good one lets c how Parker plays through this latest injury

[look_at_g_shred]

Parker has been ballin as of late. Well see if he's up for the challenge tonight. Even with a bruised calf.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Sucks that i'm gonna miss this one.... hope pop sits TP, tbh.

[DatBoyGood]

Mills and Joseph have got to come through tonight

[Budkin]

Would enjoy not having a meltdown tonight. We're due for another one though. :lol

I'd like to come in her.

[spurs10]

I'd like to come in her. Doubt she'd be interested in a Blazers fan that call himself Schlong.

god i hate most of the spurs reporters.
sorry but they're all awkward aspie types.
i think there's one normal one?
but the others annoy me, especially the one who can't seem to ask a question without speaking for thirty seconds
then they try too hard to chum it up and be cool with the players. hate it

:cry it still hurts brah :cry

[ElNono]

Spurs win in celebration of my return from extended hiatus tbh.

sup... hope the vasectomy went well, tbh...

[Baam]

TP seems to take it personnal, he's really annoyed by the Portland recent record vs the Spurs...

I can see a win, in a shootout because our perimeter D with TP-Beli-Manu isn't gonna magically become any good...

Boris vs Aldridge is key... Maybe Kawhi spends time on Lillard as well...

Also Mo Williams is a certified Spurs killer going up vs our weak backup PG defense (that let Rivers, Reggie Jackson and basically everyone go off)...

[spurs10]

TP in the house!

[spurraider21]

tony parker will play!

sorry lefty

[Beaverfuzz]

:flag: :flag: :flag:

Spurs by 8

[gnsf0946]

win-win situation, if we lose we can go with :cry parker was injured :cry reasoning

[Beaverfuzz]

We doing chat tonight or just hamming it up in this thread again?

[Beaverfuzz]

I will have the Blazers broadcast on because I'm cool like that...or it's what I get for free living here in Portland. :flag:

:lol don't know if i want to listen to Mike & Mike especially if the Blazers dominate us.

[hater]

Blazers by 15

[loveforthegame]

Go Spurs!! :flag:

[Beaverfuzz]

Have a higher 3pt %
Shoot 50%
Aldridge and Lillard for 50+

That's Mike and Mike's keys to the game. And yes I love listening to Mike & Mike

[timmy2003]

Go spurs go

[RD2191]

:flag:

[timmy2003]

Let's play great D tonight

[RD2191]

:ihit

[RD2191]

:makemyday

[Beaverfuzz]

Timmuh!

[RD2191]

:depressed

[RD2191]

I've seen enough, tank for Exum.

[Beaverfuzz]

Tony!

[Beaverfuzz]

Less being cute and more going straight up and drawing the foul.

[RD2191]

KAWHIIII

[Beaverfuzz]

Leonard Part VI...shut down Lillard.

[timtonymanu]

Fucking Aldridge!

[MeloHype]

How's that a foul?

[Baam]

Damn lots of missed opportunities but some encouraging D at times...

[RD2191]

Effin shoot that Kawhi

[Dex]

Good timeout by Pop. That D was pathetic.

I miss Boris 2.0. :(

[GB20]

i feel bad for leanard, he needs more touches

[RD2191]

:bang

[313]

Good timeout by Pop. That D was pathetic.

I miss Boris 2.0. :(
He does seem to have lost his aggressiveness. Saving it for the post season?

[RD2191]

There we go Kawhi

[Baam]

Boris can defend Aldridge...

[RD2191]

Kawhi what the fuck are you doing? FUCK

[$pursDynasty]

Boris is back but he needs to conserve energy, his ability to contain LA > him going off offensively

[Baam]

Kawhi what the fuck are you doing? FUCK

That kind of possession is not on anyone but himself...

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Manu on Lillard is a disaster. He can't guard Lillard at all.

[BatManu20]

Bad transition D

[Baam]

Manu doesn't look very good on any end of the court so far...

[RD2191]

:lol

[RD2191]

Terrible offense/defense

[RD2191]

:lmao

[Baam]

Mo Williams the Spurs killer doing what he does...

[timtonymanu]

Fuck Mo Williams!

[loveforthegame]

Manu looks like shit.

[loveforthegame]

Then he hits a 3 but still doesn't look good.

[RD2191]

Terrible defense

[LakerHater]

Everybody gettin haircuts now!

[LakerHater]

Travel?

[LakerHater]

WHOAAAAAAA!!!

[Spurs_Be_Beastin']

damn bon bons make thatttt

[LakerHater]

MANU With a strong block!!

[RD2191]

:lmaoBonner

[Beaverfuzz]

MARCO!



POLO! Good foul draw.

[LakerHater]

Damn Manu!

[Beaverfuzz]

You can't let Mo Williams beat you. Come on Spurs!

[Baam]

Bonner... Mo Williams on fire as expected...

[RD2191]

Someone please Tonya Harding Mo Williams

[LakerHater]

Mo killin Spurs per usual

[jyra]

What the hell is Ayres doing dropping that far down on those pick and rolls when you know all Mo Williams does is shoot coming off the pick...

[Baam]

The Spurs are really limited when it comes to perimeter D especially with Green out and Portland is just very strong offensively...

[apalisoc_9]

As I've said Ayres is a below average defender tbh...But then again, Manu, Patty, Belli all on the same floor.

[Beaverfuzz]

T up Robinson for delay of game!

[timtonymanu]

Spurs have to hit the open 3

[Beaverfuzz]

Ok Patty, tonight is not your night for 3's.

[Baam]

Mills chucking a bit too much tbh...

[RD2191]

lol Scrub ass Mills cant hit shit against good teams per par

[Beaverfuzz]

Leonard Part VI!

[DapDaGenius]

I thought Mills was Neal for a second there.

[boutons_deux]

Spurs missing uncontested jumpers, layups

why do our bigs backpaddle down the lane to give the driver an uncontested shot?

Tim hasn't stepped a number of times.

[Spurs Brazil]

That's a bad lineup for defense. Blazers got some easy baskets

[DapDaGenius]

LOL The Spurs mascot is so creepy.

[GB20]

:flag:

[SpurPadre]

Fucking Bonner, good for nothing piece of Shit.

[RD2191]

Fucking Bonner, good for nothing piece of Shit.
:lol

[Beaverfuzz]

Time to play smarter on offense, too many rushed shots and shot selection period.

[RD2191]

Boris is that nigga

[Beaverfuzz]

Diaw looked like Kareem there. lol

[bklynspursfan]

playing with fire leaving Mo like that.... can't let him take those 3's

[Baam]

Boris is that nigga

:hat

[ace3g]

One way to keep Diaw aggressive...pass him ball with shot clock running down

[RD2191]

Tim smh

[spurraider21]

if thats how we're going to defend the pick and roll they can do that literally every time

[Beaverfuzz]

ENOUGH HERO BALL TONY, Jesus.

[RD2191]

:wakeup

[RD2191]

:downspin:

[timtonymanu]

Spurs didn't scout this game apparently.

[boutons_deux]

spurgs gone cold cold

[01Snake]

Looking like shit

[Beaverfuzz]

Seriously, enough fucking around. Ratball and hero ball.

[loveforthegame]

:td

[Spurs Brazil]

another pathetic effort on D against a good team

[Sean Cagney]

Spurs didn't scout this game apparently.

Same old SONG vs this Portland team every fucking time. Excuse my french but it is getting really old.
another pathetic effort on D against a good team

They can't beat this damn team, just can't seem to do it.

[superjames1992]

Defense gets worse with Tim and Tony back in tonight, tbh.

[SpurPadre]

I fucking hate it when we make that sideshow Bob looking motherfucker look like an all-star

[Beaverfuzz]

The defense isn't helping but it's the offense that's killing the Spurs right now.

[Beaverfuzz]

AND1

[LakerHater]

& 1!

[Libri]

timmy

[Spurs Brazil]

Timmy and one!!

[GB20]

hopefully that shot keeps timmy going

[tlongII]

That was a ridiculous call.

[LakerHater]

Tim Fooled himself :lol

[RD2191]

Holy shit, has anyone ever gone down hill from 1 game to the next? Tim looks done.

[itzsoweezee]

Lol @ Tim claiming that was all ball.

[loveforthegame]

B2B turnovers then a shooting foul. Momentum killer right there.

[Baam]

Damn so many fouls and errors...

[ElNono]

Blazers getting all the calls

[RD2191]

:lolGame over

[ace3g]

bring in the back up SF...

[loveforthegame]

bring in the back up SF...

:bang

[Baam]

Not Tim's night...

[Bill_Brasky]

I love watching professional basketball players miss chippies.....

[Baam]

Why do they insist with Tim...

[SpurPadre]

Horrible play from td to close the half

[LakerHater]

wow!

[Baam]

THAT WAS CLEAN FFS

[ace3g]

Matthew R Tynan @Matthew_Tynan
(https://twitter.com/Matthew_Tynan)Spurs PR saying nasal fracture for Matt Bonner. Needless to say he’s out.

Injuries continue to mount up. SMH.

[Bill_Brasky]

NBA Reffing lol

[LakerHater]

Matt Bonner out the rest of the game, nasal fracture.

[Baam]

Boris is pissed now

[loveforthegame]

Too bad about Bonner. :td

How we're down only 5 is beyond me.

The Spurs have work to do.

[ElNono]

it was a good first half... Patty and Marco were just missing easy shots, and the Blazers were getting all the whistles, tbh... expecting Pop to pull a T if the whistle doesn't even out

[superjames1992]

Blazerrefs.

[crc21209]

Fucking injuries....:td

[tlongII]

Maybe if the refs call it fairly we'll win easily.

[Robz4000]

Spurs are dropping like flies, Christ.

[crc21209]

That call on Diaw was garbage BTW...

[ElNono]

tbh, I missed when Aldrige started to get superstar calls... that's new

[LakerHater]

8 TOs for Spurs

[spurs10]

That is ridiculous. Aldridge is a flopping pos.

[SpurPadre]

Injuries continue to mount up. SMH.
But this is Bonner we're talking about...addition by subtraction.

[RD2191]

So much for statement game.:lol

[Baam]

But this is Bonner we're talking about...addition by subtraction.

Malcolm Thomas probably still won't play...

[Sean Cagney]

But this is Bonner we're talking about...addition by subtraction.

Yeah but Splitter is already out, not a fan of Bonner but man he is atleast is a body out there right now. Oh well maybe Baynes gets some minutes now?

[Snaq O'Meal]

Too bad about Bonner. The other bigs (except for Baynes) will now have to play even more minutes.

[Baam]

Maybe if the refs call it fairly we'll win easily.

:lol

[SpurPadre]

Aldridge only with 6 points yet they lead by 5 on the road. Frustrating but this game really shows how much green means to our perimeter d.

[Sean Cagney]

So much for statement game.:lol

Nope, Spurs will go win the next game against some bum team by 20 now after they drop another one vs a good team. I hope I am wrong but it's the pattern this year so far.

[crc21209]

Maybe if the refs call it fairly we'll win easily.

:lol

[RD2191]

Tlong with the trolling goods.

[crc21209]

8 TOs for Spurs

If they can cut that # in half for the 2nd half they should be alright.

[GB20]

Malcolm Thomas probably still won't play...
and the same for baynes

[SpurPadre]

Yeah but Splitter is already out, not a fan of Bonner but man he is atleast is a body out there right now. Oh well maybe Baynes gets some minutes now?
This is a Baynes game. He can make things physical out there.

Green would be our best bet gaurding Lillard tbh

[SpurPadre]

Malcolm Thomas probably still won't play...
He's not even allowed to do mills former job of just towel-waiving.

[superjames1992]

Get the Red Rocket a mask!

[timmy2003]

Green would be our best bet gaurding Lillard tbh

Agree Green has been terrific guarding point guards

[HI-FI]

Maybe if the refs call it fairly we'll win easily.
:lol
good joke.

[EVAY]

ENOUGH HERO BALL TONY, Jesus.

let me see now…At the end of the first half. Manu is 2 for 7 shots, Tim is 3 for 7 shots, and Tony is 4 for 7 shots.

Now…what was that about hero-balling?

[Beaverfuzz]

let me see now…At the end of the first half. Manu is 2 for 7 shots, Tim is 3 for 7 shots, and Tony is 4 for 7 shots.

Now…what was that about hero-balling?

Tony should have been 4 for 6 and a slam by Duncan or whomever was inside the paint when TP wheeled around them and put up an awful shot. 1 on 3-4 = hero ball.

let me see now…At the end of the first half. Manu is 2 for 7 shots, Tim is 3 for 7 shots, and Tony is 4 for 7 shots.

Now…what was that about hero-balling?

That's because Tony dribbles, dribbles, dribbles then passes it at the last second for somebody else's prayer... these are the things we know...

[boutons_deux]

Matty got head-butted, League should review it.

[ElNono]

gotta start using blue these days when talking about Enrique, tbh

[SpurPadre]

Green would be our best bet gaurding Lillard tbh
He will never be as good as he was in the first 5 games of the finals but his d is dependable especially against curry.

[ElNono]

let me see now…At the end of the first half. Manu is 2 for 7 shots, Tim is 3 for 7 shots, and Tony is 4 for 7 shots.

Now…what was that about hero-balling?

Only one of them is "in his prime"

[AntiChrist]

What's with all the Spurs hesitating to shoot?

[LakerHater]

Thomas Robinson Lebron-ing broke Bonners nose!

[ElNono]

let me see now…At the end of the first half. Manu is 2 for 7 shots, Tim is 3 for 7 shots, and Tony is 4 for 7 shots.

Now…what was that about hero-balling?

Only 7 shots for Mr MVP conversation? He needs to stop hiding...

[Beaverfuzz]

Bring in Baynes/Thomas to shove around Lopez and Aldridge.

[ElNono]

let me see now…At the end of the first half. Manu is 2 for 7 shots, Tim is 3 for 7 shots, and Tony is 4 for 7 shots.

Now…what was that about hero-balling?

Yeah, but Manu and Tim at 31 were bullying ni**as

[ElNono]

you get the idea :lol

[Beaverfuzz]

MARCO!

[Beaverfuzz]

Polo

[AntiChrist]

Blazers really have a nice group of talented players -- too talented for the refs to be bailing out.

[RD2191]

marco defense LOL

[RD2191]

:wakeup

[Baam]

Marco makings 2s and giving up 3s... Tim looking off...

[timtonymanu]

Sigh

[LakerHater]

WOW Boris!

[ElNono]

we're just missing wide-open shots... then again the Blazers are a gimmick, tbh... jump shooting teams never win shit

[Beaverfuzz]

Make him jump Boris!! lol

[RD2191]

Fuk erryone but Diaw, tbh

[RD2191]

we're just missing wide-open shots... then again the Blazers are a gimmick, tbh... jump shooting teams never win shit
:wakeup

[ElNono]

:lol

[ElNono]

theyre not even guarding us... we're shooting airballs

[Baam]

Kinda discouraging at this point...

[Baam]

Brick brick brick...

[Beaverfuzz]

Play some damn defense, GO SPURS GO!

[Beaverfuzz]

Nice push off Aldridge. Diaw flopped though, and no one rebounding.

[LakerHater]

No Offensive call!?

[Darius Bieber]

lol Spurs

[01Snake]

Hooray..we suck.

[ElNono]

The Spurs play this team wrong... you need to penetrate and attack the basket, they're extremely weak down low... we're just taking jumpshots and playing right into their game

[timtonymanu]

This is ugly

[LakerHater]

Coach Pop ready to kill somebody!!

EJECTED!!

[loveforthegame]

Leonard needs to quit shooting. Oh wait.

[SpurPadre]

Td and marco are killing us right now

[crc21209]

Pretty frustrating game. Especially bescause I wish Green and Splitter were healthy enough to play this fucking game. Green would do better on guys like Lillard and Matthews than TP and Belinelli....

[Texas_Ranger]

Spurs playing good teams is fun to watch.

[Sean Cagney]

Kinda discouraging at this point...

SPURS SUCK against this team, that is about all there is to it and thats becoming a fact now. Oh well another loss to Portland coming.

[loveforthegame]

Parker 4-9
Marco 2-6
Duncan 3-9
Manu 2-7

Diaw 6-9
Leonard 3-4

[timtonymanu]

Pop ejected

[Beaverfuzz]

Nice job Pop!

[loveforthegame]

Pop ejected

It was just a matter of time.

[Darius Bieber]

lol Boylen. Gonna get even uglier.

[crc21209]

:lol Pop. Lets see how Boylen does as HC. Coach Bud always did a good job...

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

lol lets go boylen!

[timtonymanu]

Great and there's no Bud to go to

[Baam]

Boylen :lol, wonder what he's gonna do...

it was a good first half... Patty and Marco were just missing easy shots, and the Blazers were getting all the whistles, tbh... expecting Pop to pull a T if the whistle doesn't even out

MAMA MIA!!

MARCO!

POLO!

I wonder what would happen if the assistants did stop Pop from rushing towards the ref.

[loveforthegame]

About time they show some fire.
