[superjames1992]

Fight.

[ElNono]

nice! Ice it danny

[superjames1992]

King Belli coming up with the clutch jump ball goods, per par.

[RD2191]

Fight.

[timtonymanu]

Yeah honestly the Blazers are a bunch of pussies.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Please make your free throws!

[MeloHype]

Make your free throws

[timtonymanu]

Now if we lose this game in the same situation as 6 will 6 still be the "biggest sports choke of all time in any sport ever?"

White men can jump.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Or the Splitter missed layup, but if Spurs pull this out it probably won't be on there.

[KL2]

Game, blouses.

[Budkin]

Portland can't stop whining

That's because it's not possible for them to accept that they could lose a game to us.

[MeloHype]

That's game imo

[ElNono]

[ElNono]

[TE]

Okay, give up Portland

[TE]

[weeks]

does anyone still prefer neal to bellinelli? seriously.

[timtonymanu]

Portland can't stop whining

Very true. They're even more whinier than past years I guess cause of the winning record.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Now if we lose this game in the same situation as 6 will 6 still be the "biggest sports choke of all time in any sport ever?"
I know you're being sarcastic but consider the context of game 6 and anyone would put it in the discussion of all time greatest chokejob in sports history.

[TheGoldStandard]

2-0 against playoff contenders now..

[KaiRMD1]

Another clutch shot from Lillard

[MeloHype]

:lol Lillard

[SupremeGuy]

lol @ lillard stat padding

[TE]

Lillard stat-padding

[superjames1992]

KING BELLI - 20 points on 11 shots.
Patty - 29 points on 26 shots.

KING BELLI - 1.82 points per shot.
Patty - 1.12 points per shot.

You do the math.

[RD2191]

stat padding

[ElNono]

We win! :flag:

[Mugen]

Spurs win!

[Splits]

Green and Beli showing Manu and Kawhi how to shoot freebies down the stretch to ice games against contenders, tbh

[SupremeGuy]

Damn. Great b2b wins.

[Blizzardwizard]

Fluky 3 to end it :lol

[ace3g]

40-15

[Juggity]

Fuck the blazers. Good win.

[crc21209]

Great back to back wins!

[superjames1992]

Mills... 2 assists in 29 minutes. Yikes. Share the ball, son.

[timtonymanu]

Great b2b wins! This is the best I've felt about the Spurs since the start of the year.

[LakerHater]

Won back to back games shorthanded!

[RD2191]

KING BELLI - 20 points on 11 shots.
Patty - 29 points on 26 shots.

KING BELLI - 1.82 points per shot.
Patty - 1.12 points per shot.

You do the math.

[KL2]

Yawn, blazers just aren't as good as they think they are, spurs beating the teams they are supposed to beat, nothing to see here.

[superjames1992]

Green and Beli showing Manu and Kawhi how to shoot freebies down the stretch to ice games against contenders, tbh
:tu

[TheGoldStandard]

Our only challenge now it take one from OKC

[TheyCallMePro]

Bill Land had no idea what the score was for the last minute of the game...lol.

[KaiRMD1]

That's another "elite team" the ol' sports have beaten, onto the next game

[siraulo23]

Good win!

[BatManu20]

Another solid win. Feels good tbh.

[crc21209]

Hey robdiaz remember when you said Mills sucked against good teams? Well he's had two good games against two good teams on back to back nights...

[Spur|n|Austin]

2 very solid wins in a row while shorthanded on the road. Let's finish the trip 3-0 fellas!

[Spursfanfromafar]

Some people talking about Spurs not winning against elite teams? Take that, yo. 40-15

[Mikeanaro]

Fuck the refs, Spurs won :toast

[crc21209]

Great b2b wins! This is the best I've felt about the Spurs since the start of the year.

Same here. Two GREAT wins on b2b nights. One night without Tony, Kawhi, and Splitter. The next night without Tony, Tim, and Kawhi.

[SupremeGuy]

This team is going to be fucking scary if we get healthy and our role players play like they did tonight.

[Ditty]

Our only challenge now it take one from OKC

Kicking Houston's ass would make me feel good also.

[Raven]

good back to back, now with leonard back we can get even better. Splitter was invaluable btw.

[sexinthatsx]

Hey robdiaz remember when you said Mills sucked against good teams? Well he's had two good games against two good teams on back to back nights...

lol yeah I was going to call him out too

[dg7md]

Let's hope we continue to get these wins against legit teams, I feel like we're on the verge of another SPAM if this keeps up. Loving that Patty is going off in these games. If this keeps up, we've got our Parker replacement when he loses his efficiency.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

See Nono no moral victories. We win!

[TheGoldStandard]

Kicking Houston's ass would make me feel good also.

That would be gratifying but we have proven we can beat Houston but Portland always gives us shit and OKC

[SupremeGuy]

I think Green and Leonard have been holding back all year or something. It seems like out of nowhere Finals MVP Green pops up, starts draining 3s, and plays great defense.

[PingPong]

This team is going to be fucking scary if we get healthy and our role players play like they did tonight.

Just send CoJo, Ayres and Bonner to somewhere for a bag of chips. And get rid of Shannon Brown.

[RD2191]

Hey robdiaz remember when you said Mills sucked against good teams? Well he's had two good games against two good teams on back to back nights...
I'm glad he played well, but 13-26 shooting with 2 assist isn't what I wanna see from our supposed backup PG.

[ace3g]

Last game of the Shannon Brown era

[superjames1992]

Splitter was invaluable btw.
:tu

[superjames1992]

Last game of the Shannon Brown era
Thank God.

[Ditty]

Hopefully we finish Friday's road trip with a nice blow out win. Keep the second seed, and keep pushing for the number one seed to continue having OKC to play hard.

[SpurPadre]

Good win considering our circumstances but the blazers are almost like a headless chicken without Aldridge.

[SupremeGuy]

Last game of the Shannon Brown eraNow we know why he wasn't on a team, tbh...

[SpurPadre]

Thank God.
I don't think he did anything that egregious to warrant that reaction.

[timtonymanu]

:lol Batum

So lucky we ended up with Leonard instead. Batum looked like he was reaching his prime last season, but he's back to being the scrub he is this year.

[TE]

I'm glad he played well, but 13-26 shooting with 2 assist isn't what I wanna see from our supposed backup PG.
With the injury situation, we need the offensive aggressiveness tbh. 13-26 is actually decent, not great but it's aight.

[SupremeGuy]

Yawn, blazers just aren't as good as they think they are, spurs beating the teams they are supposed to beat, nothing to see here.LMAO someone had to do it...

[JonNOKC]

Mills... 2 assists in 29 minutes. Yikes. Share the ball, son.

Mills talent is scoring the basketball - not to mention there weren't that many guys on the court I would want to shoot instead of Mills - bottom line if he shoots 50% not sure why anyone would have any complaints as a backup guard. Mills has had more efficeint games but I only saw about 4 shots that were poor decisions he had alot of great looks that just didn't fall. Can he do it in the playoffs? Not sure but I see no reason to be negative concerning his play up to this point and he deserves at leaast the opportunity to show he can perform come PO time

[JonNOKC]

Double Post

[timtonymanu]

Good win considering our circumstances but the blazers are almost like a headless chicken without Aldridge.

Yeah but our 3 best players were out. Then again, Aldridge is always sure to score 25+ points every game against us.

[99 Problems]

KING BELLI - 20 points on 11 shots.
Patty - 29 points on 26 shots.

KING BELLI - 1.82 points per shot.
Patty - 1.12 points per shot.

You do the math.



Millsy 29 points in 29 minutes shooting 50 odd % . In LA they'd throw 40 million at ya. Lol

[RD2191]

With the injury situation, we need the offensive aggressiveness tbh. 13-26 is actually decent, not great but it's aight.
Yeah, he's good to have in the reg season and his offensive spark is nice. He was 2-8 in 6 minutes early on, I'm just glad they started going in.

[SpurPadre]

Yeah but our 3 best players were out. Then again, Aldridge is always sure to score 25+ points every game against us.
Yeah it's because of our injuries I consider it a good win. But Aldridge is the heart and soul of that team.

[downunder]

Is this really a spurs fan site ? Some blokes need to see a psychiatrist. The team won !! Some idiots think Mills took too many shots - boneheads. Mills to his credit created space to get his shots off ; that is a skill !!!. Look at Parkers hit rate. God look at John Stockton's stats. The skill is becoming free and backing yourself. All the team contributed even Ayres. Get OFF their backs and support the team !!! GO SPURS piss off the doubters

[Mikeanaro]

13-26 against an Elite team making the good shots on the 4th quarter and winning the game? I take it

non biased take

[Boomersgold]

Mills... 2 assists in 29 minutes. Yikes. Share the ball, son.
Wait, so you were expecting guys like Ayres, Bonner, Cojo and De Colo to score in place of TP, Duncan and Leonard? They're not offensive threats, and they never have been....

This is really lame, some users are trying to dig shit about Patty when he is doing it better than Porky Parker, did you see his face in the bench? he was dying... good for him

[crc21209]

So I need some advice from my fellow Spurs Talkers. I'm planning on heading to SA for Spring Break week (March 10th-14th). I'm thinking of going to the Spurs-Blazers game on Wed. March 12th. Problem is it's the 2nd night of a back to back. The night before they will be in Chicago. Any chance Pop rests some of the guys for the game at home? Before that Tuesday game their last game played will be on Sat. March 8th.

[crc21209]

Yeah but our 3 best players were out. Then again, Aldridge is always sure to score 25+ points every game against us.

Yeah. Spurs missing Tony, Tim and Kawhi is a bigger deal than the Blazers missing Aldridge. Tony, Tim, and Kawhi are arguably the 3 best players on the team (Along with Manu).

[SpurPadre]

Yeah. Spurs missing Tony, Tim and Kawhi is a bigger deal than the Blazers missing Aldridge. Tony, Tim, and Kawhi are arguably the 3 best players on the team (Along with Manu).
It is a bigger deal but clearly the blazers aren't the same team without Aldridge either.

[Mugen]

Neither the Clippers nor the Blazers are "elite" but both are solid. Great b2b victories, especially tonight tbh.

[crc21209]

Neither the Clippers nor the Blazers are "elite" but both are solid. Great b2b victories, especially tonight tbh.

2 of the top 5 teams in the West though, so it is kind of a big deal...

[Johnny RIngo]

Patty Mills in February:

17.3 ppg on 52%

Parker in February:

14.9 ppg on 42%

[tim_duncan_fan]

They are closer to elite than we are.

[SupremeGuy]

Patty Mills in February:

17.3 ppg on 52%

Parker in February:

14.9 ppg on 42%Is that Parker's Feb last year or this year?

[Splits]

Millsy 29 points in 29 minutes shooting 50 odd % . In LA they'd throw 49 million at ya. Lol

fify

:lol

[Johnny RIngo]

Is that Parker's Feb last year or this year?

This year. Parker was fantastic last year. His performance this year has been disappointing. It's like his game has regressed all way back to shitty mid-2000s Parker. Horrid to watch.

[benfti]

I'm glad he played well, but 13-26 shooting with 2 assist isn't what I wanna see from our supposed backup PG.
Honest question, what does he have to do to continue you? Because at the moment you seem to be cutting your nose of despite your face to stay on messsge

[TheGoldStandard]

Parker has been up and down this past season; started the season solid in November, dipped in December, numbers got better in January and then February fell down again... With rest I'm certain his game will come back.

[RD2191]

Honest question, what does he have to do to continue you? Because at the moment you seem to be cutting your nose of despite your face to stay on messsge
Why are you people so concerned about my opinion? It isn't going to change, he is an undersized SG. It is what it is.

[Harry Callahan]

Why are you people so concerned about my opinion? It isn't going to change, he is an undersized SG. It is what it is.

I recall your opinion on Mills was he is a "Scrub". That opinion was wrong. Your tepid attempt to back track (a little) is weak - "undersized shooting guard who will fail in the playoffs" now. That is a different opinion then your initial opinion. Perhaps your opinion did in fact change already. Mills has been a quality bench player for the Spurs this year regardless of a PG SG label someone may put on him. BTW FWIW, Allen Iverson and Calvin Murphy were "undersized shooting guards". They could play the game at a high level.

Rob, I'm afraid you are quickly becoming the Jeff Ayers of ST posters.

Just admit your original take on Mills being a "scrub" was wrong and move on to some other subject.

Of course you may very well be a troll/D-Bag based on what you throw out there sometimes. If that's the case, I won't bother setting you straight anymore. I'd prefer to converse with the more serious fans as opposed to a clown.

[eDizzle20]

It was great to have Splitter back last night. Watching guys like Ayres and Baynes out there struggling while Splitter was out really makes you appreciate how important Splitter's defense, pick n roll offense, and hands are to this team.

[Beaverfuzz]

Splitter is still out of shape and needs to hit the gym. Pretty weak arms for a center.
