Duncan missed a shot. He's done. Blow it up. Time to rebuild.

[egtonecity]

Daye goes for 15, becomes the reason spurs get 50 wins year after year.

[jeebus]

spurmraider, where's that sexy Ayres pic where he wears the sunglasses and shows off dem gums?

[timtonymanu]

Daye goes for 15, becomes the reason spurs get 50 wins year after year.

They need to replace him with Ayres on the inactive list first.

[spurraider21]

we should run the RJ play today

[spurraider21]

since when does the clock reset to 24? the shot clock was at 9 after the foul

Thanks Tim!

[DPG21920]

It's a critical shot for the Spurs offense long term.

[ElNono]

tiago gotta finish that.... he's scared

[RD2191]

:bang

[RD2191]

fuck off, jazz

[ace3g]

vintage Manu!!!

[ElNono]

bs call

[EVAY]

That looked like an offensive foul to me. What was the actual call?

[Chomag]

Manu getting red hot. Pop pulling the hot hand per par lmao!

[EVAY]

No one blocking out.

[atoyotagaspedal]

jazz making it look easy

[Captivus]

BOX OUT!

[Chomag]

Defence? We don't need no freaking defence!

[RD2191]

:frying:

[jeebus]

Tiago and Diaw are awful together.

[ElNono]

we're getting outhustled a bit... need to be more assertive on offense

[ElNono]

there we go... some D and 3

[RD2191]

starters aint fukin around

[DPG21920]

Love seeing Kawhi's 3 point shot falling more and more.

[ElNono]

crofl favors blocked by a 89 years old

[DPG21920]

Well done TP. He's looking better and better. Him and Manu getting to the line (plus our bigs especially Tiago) is huge with their improved FT shooting. Adds another dimension to an already potent offense.

[DPG21920]

:lmao Manu so smart

[crc21209]

Love the aggression on O. The Big 3 is doing a good job of being aggressive and getting to the FT line...

[ElNono]

diggin this smallball lineup

[ElNono]

Dallas up 8 on OKC...

[Cry Havoc]

At least we're not down 7 at home like the Thunder are. :lol

[Chomag]

Lol Jefferson

[EVAY]

If we were getting more than one shot per possession and they weren't getting so many offensive rebounds, this game wold be over already.

The rebounding is why they are hanging around. That plus our starters can't seem to take them too seriously.

[Chomag]

Manu getting red hot. Pop pulling the hot hand per par lmao!

[DPG21920]

At least we're not down 7 at home like the Thunder are. :lol

To be fair, Spurs have one of the worst home records of the top teams in the league. 8 losses already.

[RD2191]

dpg going full robdiaz

[Cry Havoc]

To be fair, Spurs have one of the worst home records of the top teams in the league. 8 losses already.

They've been hurt all year. Makes a big fucking difference. Plus, early season losses don't mean anything.

[DPG21920]

This is a lineup I expect to see a fair amount in the playoffs. This has to be the most likely small ball PF line up.

[crc21209]

TD off the bank :tu

[DPG21920]

They've been hurt all year. Makes a big fucking difference. Plus, early season losses don't mean anything.

Well, by that excuse, then OKC is playing a much better team tonight (Dallas) than SA is (Utah). Plus, it's early. Also, Spurs were able to win plenty of games hurt, so that excuse of losing at home doesn't fly for me.

[Cry Havoc]

Doesn't really matter who you're playing right now, if they lose and we win they're down 2 games.

[DPG21920]

It never ceases to amaze me at how TP can get into the lane and finish and create space like a big man. It's crazy.

[ElNono]

v3

[crc21209]

Gr333333333n!

[DPG21920]

Doesn't really matter who you're playing right now, if they lose and we win they're down 2 games.

Agreed - I'm rooting for them to lose.

[ElNono]

enrique reared his ugly head there... good pass to Verde on the next play though

[RD2191]

:bang

[EVAY]

It never ceases to amaze me at how TP can get into the lane and finish and create space like a big man. It's crazy.

And he virtually always gets fouled in the process, though often does not get the ball, like last time.

[ElNono]

turnooooobili

[Cry Havoc]

Mavs up by 9. Spurs up by 9. Not a bad situation to be in.

[crc21209]

Ugh...that Manu pass was shades of last years Finals Manu...:td

[Cry Havoc]

And he virtually always gets fouled in the process, though often does not get the ball, like last time.

Parker shoots one of the lowest FTA's of any PG in the league. That's absurd given the number of points in the pain he has.

[EVAY]

enrique reared his ugly head there... good pass to Verde on the next play though

bullshit. he was fouled on the drive to the basket and it wasn't called…but he was fouled.

[Captivus]

Gordon is great.

[ElNono]

favors with a silly foul

[DPG21920]

I know it's hard in the heat of the moment, but why leave your feet? Especially when you are running towards the baseline with nothing to stop you.

[timtonymanu]

Mavs up by 9. Spurs up by 9. Not a bad situation to be in.

Damn, hopefully Dallas holds on. We have a pretty good cushion over most of the contenders except OKC and Indiana.

[DPG21920]

Parker shoots one of the lowest FTA's of any PG in the league. That's absurd given the number of points in the pain he has.

I think part of it is because he's deceptively strong. He's able to take contact and still control his body/finish.

[ElNono]

bullshit. he was fouled on the drive to the basket and it wasn't called…but he was fouled.

I guess that's what he's explaining to Pop there...

[Cry Havoc]

I know it's hard in the heat of the moment, but why leave your feet? Especially when you are running towards the baseline with nothing to stop you.

Instinct, honestly. I get a little nervy just playing local hoops when I have a clear lane. It's just too good to be true and I expect this 6'7" dude to come out of nowhere and level me. :lol

[RD2191]

okc will go full ref in the 4th, no doubt about it

[Captivus]

Whats wrong with Westbrook? Injured?

[ElNono]

good job Manu... make them make the call

[EVAY]

I guess that's what he's explaining to Pop there...

Consider a quote from our friend Boutons...

[Cry Havoc]

Whats wrong with Westbrook? Injured?

You mean his head? That's not injury that's just how he is.

[ElNono]

Whats wrong with Westbrook? Injured?

no, just resting

[EVAY]

Whats wrong with Westbrook? Injured?

Coach says resting because of a b2b

[RD2191]

this is bullshit

[Cry Havoc]

Coach says resting because of a b2b

Shit, other coaches getting smart and resting their guys like Pop. :pctoss

[ElNono]

Manuuuuuuuuuu

[crc21209]

Manu 33333333!

[DPG21920]

Evans backed off wayyyyyy too much and Manu makes him pay :tu

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Whats wrong with Westbrook? Injured?

Is is hurt again?

[crc21209]

Damn it, Westbrook being out just benefits the Thunder and means no shots are taken away from Durant...:td

[Cry Havoc]

Bad half but I'll take it if we end the night up 2 against OKC.

[ElNono]

pretty good first half... Utah always plays physical, so we have to step up the physicality too

[timtonymanu]

Thunder only down 4

[Cry Havoc]

Marion for 3!!!!

[Cry Havoc]

Thunder down 9. :D

[timtonymanu]

Bad half but I'll take it if we end the night up 2 against OKC.

We struggle against Favors and tonight is no exception. It doesn't even feel like an 8 point lead, tbh.

[Captivus]

You mean his head? That's not injury that's just how he is.


no, just resting


Coach says resting because of a b2b


Is is hurt again?

THX! I dont even get this kind of attention in my own house!!

[Cry Havoc]

Holy shit I am the biggest Marion fan right now.

[Cry Havoc]

Dallas up 11 in OKC at half!

[EVAY]

THX! I dont even get this kind of attention in my own house!!
:lol:toast

[Captivus]

That missed 3 would have been BEAUTIFUL!

[Mugen]

Solid 1st half, Jazz made some real tough shots tbh.

[ElNono]

:lol favors stat padding, being a traffic cone on the defensive end, per the usual

[DPG21920]

Jazz are just a damn big team. They will get some offensive rebounds. Spurs could pick up their defense though - they are just a little late on everything defensively outside of Tim who's made a few good rotations to help. Both teams playing really clean ball though - hopefully the Spurs can continue to take care of the ball.

[Mugen]

imma name my first child Kawhi tbh, regardless of gender.

[atoyotagaspedal]

Is this the Dallas/OKC game thread? lol

[boutons_deux]

Jazz 30 pts in the paint at halftime

[313]

Anthony Davis with 38 and 15 and just made a jumper to give the Pelicans a 3 point lead

[ElNono]

but, but det core doe

[ElNono]

pretty play

[jimbo]

Tiago thinking he's a guard again

[DPG21920]

This team is so sick when healthy/playing well :lol

[ElNono]

tragic with the bounce pass

[HI-FI]

imma name my first child Kawhi tbh, regardless of gender.
:lol
i've had those same thoughts. such a unique dude and name. it's like Unisex glasses tbh.

[crc21209]

What a pass by Tim!

[Cry Havoc]

DIRK I FUCKING LOVE YOU

[DPG21920]

Man board.

[atoyotagaspedal]

THANK YOU BASED DICK

[RD2191]

:bang

[ElNono]

come on TP

[RD2191]

:bang:bang

[DPG21920]

Tim blocked det doe

[ElNono]

:lol tragic

[jimbo]

:lol Tim getting too confident

[EVAY]

Favors fouled Tim on that but didn't get the call.

[ElNono]

danny in foul trouble

[RD2191]

what a load of shit

[EVAY]

come on TP

Oh fuck it Nono, before that shot he had five assists and was shooting 50% for the night. What the fuck are you gonna do…pss every time he misses a fuckin'
shot?

[ElNono]

tony turnover making up with a nice jumper

[timtonymanu]

Come on now

[DPG21920]

TP needs to up the intensity/focus just a notch.

[EVAY]

Timely shooting again by Parker

[ElNono]

Oh fuck it Nono, before that shot he had five assists and was shooting 50% for the night. What the fuck are you gonna do…pss every time he misses a fuckin'
shot?

I'm cheering for him... it's just amazing that one of the best finishers at the rim misses a point blank layup... that's all

[jimbo]

wtf?? That was the most effortless dunk by Tiago I've ever seen

[DPG21920]

Tim, don't pass that up. You had one on one on the block.

[Mugen]

Get Whi Whi some touches tbhhhhhh

[EVAY]

I'm cheering for him... it's just amazing that one of the best finishers at the rim misses a point blank layup... that's all

because it has never happened to Manu or Timmy, right? And you always respond just the same way when it happens to them, right?

[DPG21920]

I love how they are bringing Tiago from the other side of the court to screen. It's creating a lot of openings considering he's one of the best screeners/finishers in the game for a big.

[ElNono]

need to cut down on the turnovers and box out

[RD2191]

lol defense, 1st round exit

[ElNono]

because it has never happened to Manu or Timmy, right? And you always respond just the same way when it happens to them, right?

yes, I do

[DPG21920]

Ima jinx Kanter

[DPG21920]

Too big, Tim.

[ElNono]

:lol Tim

[Mugen]

lmao Timmy

[DPG21920]

:lmao Tim Cutler

[BanditHiro]

lol fucking christ i hate the jazz

[RD2191]

:downspin:

[EVAY]

Oddly enough, the coaches, the announcers and the general public have all agreed that our problem this evening is about rebounding, but all we are talking about on this board is guard and small forward shooting attempts.

[ElNono]

Patty heating up!

[Captivus]

Parker didnt cut

[jimbo]

Was that Beli's pass? that was nice

[ace3g]

that passing!!!

[ElNono]

great play

[Mugen]

Marco with an awesome all around game tonight tbh

[EVAY]

Well done!!

[ElNono]

nice pep on that manu tres

[jimbo]

This passing :king

[DPG21920]

Baynes with a great catch there.

[ElNono]

come on son... BS call

[ace3g]

ref "waiting to see if ball goes in before making a call" foul

[EVAY]

Laaaaate call

[ElNono]

heat check... not a good shot

[crc21209]

ref "waiting to see if ball goes in before making a call" foul

This. Just because Kanter threw his head back dramatically is why the ref gave him the call...

shades of game 6

[DapDaGenius]

And 1 for Manu. Nice, but missed the FT.

Where is Ayres? He would have got that rebound for us.

[timtonymanu]

Nono gonna bump det thread soon

You're an idiot.

no son, I won already :hat

Patttyyyyy

Patty up

[Mugen]

what a dirty stepback tbh

[DPG21920]

GTFO Mills..

[DapDaGenius]

Swish-A-Roo!!

[ElNono]

Manu everywhere

[ElNono]

Boris 2.0

[Captivus]

Starting to like Baynes more and more.

[Cry Havoc]

Anthony Davis is the best player under 23 in the fucking League. If the draft was today and I couldn't draft KD or LeBron, I would pick Davis. Fucking monster.

[DPG21920]

Crofl that UTA defense.

[313]

padding stats on shitty team, tbh... see: Favorsit's a close game that's in OT. He hit a possible game winner with 1.2 seconds left, but Kris Humphries tied it.

[jkid12456]

PATTY!

[HI-FI]

some good shit right there. Manu has been gaining some steam, hope he stays healthy. Baynes and Mills are the Aussie goods, great to have both of them playing together.

[poeticism707]

Patty beast mode, fall away 3.

Keep it up Spurs.

[jeebus]

solid 2nd unit work out there.

[Mugen]

Really love that bench now that Jeff has been relegated to shoeshine boy tbh.

[Captivus]

Dallas up 16

[ElNono]

bench getting er done again
