Game 71: Denver McNuggets @ Spurs: March 26, 7:30 PM CT

[SpurPadre]

You know, we can't underestimate Denver's heart either. They've been playing tough lately and did beat OKC recently.

[Cry Havoc]

Well, again, my comments (can't speak for others) stem from this entire season's body of work. Tonight is a reminder (as you see, the Spurs did need him tonight) and he just hasn't been very good despite getting ample rest and limited minutes.

He's averaging 18 and 6 this season. Just turrible. How does this guy have a starting job?

[Cry Havoc]

He was addressing me. I am not hating at all.

He was, I wasn't.

[poeticism707]

:lol Tim still drawing double teams at 38

but no one ever double teams TP:rollin:rollin:rollin

[Amuseddaysleeper]

At least the Spurs will be better prepared in Denver and Pop will have their attention after tonight.

[Cry Havoc]

Nobody hates Parker. He's a top 5 spurs blah blah blah. We all fell for the mvparker bs.

A team goes as far as their defensive anchor in the post takes them... this is shocking to you?

[DPG21920]

He's averaging 18 and 6 this season. Just turrible. How does this guy have a starting job?

Don't be obtuse. Would you say, for TP's standards, this year has been a good one for him?

[PingPong]

Even the Denver anouncers talking about Splitter's 10 point.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Beautiful footwork by Timmy!

[Cry Havoc]

but no one ever double teams TP:rollin:rollin:rollin

:lmao Because so many guards draw doubles 30 feet from the hoop in the NBA. :lmao

:lmao Basic comprehension of basketball. :lmao

[Captivus]

TD is just incredible

[mclinejr]

This thread is cursed. Even the fucking coyote got hurt.

[SpursRock20]

That footwork tho :wow

[DPG21920]

Tim with a night. :wow

[RD2191]

This thread is cursed. Even the fucking coyote got hurt.

You are wasting your energy. We'll just have to wait until the playoffs (actually the second round) until this argument can be decided.

[Cry Havoc]

Don't be obtuse. Would you say, for TP's standards, this year has been a good one for him?

It's been good. Not great. 18/6 in 28-29 minutes on a fantastic team with our ball movement is actually very respectable. I'm concerned about his health just like everyone else. But you guys are already hammering nails into his coffin, which seems a bit premature given that we have the best record in the league by soon to be 3 games and Pop isn't even playing Parker 30 minutes per this season.

If Tony was going for 24/8 every game he'd be accused of statpadding, heroballing, ballhogging, because this offense is "SO EFFICIENT OMG WHY DOES THIS GUY TAKE 15 SHOTS PER GAME" etc.

[LakerHater]

Right time for GOAT to sit!

[SpursFan86]

Denver commentators right after that TD bucket: "Oh and a NICE push in the back by Duncan right there."

[LakerHater]

This thread is cursed. Even the fucking coyote got hurt.

Coyote LeBron-ing

[SpursRock20]

You know, we can't underestimate Denver's heart either. They've been playing tough lately and did beat OKC recently.
Agreed. Denver usually plays up (or down) to the caliber of their opponent. We are going to have to be ready to play in Denver if we hope to extend the streak.

[RD2191]

lol denver aint even close to making the playoffs and their commentators getting asshurt

[crc21209]

29/13/5...Wow! TD with a great line tonight!

[poeticism707]

:lmao Because so many guards draw doubles 30 feet from the hoop in the NBA. :lmao

:lmao Basic comprehension of basketball. :lmao

No, it's because TP is selfish, hero ball scrub, that maybe moves the ball 60% as much as he should, actually.

[BatManu20]

What an ugly second half.. really ugly.. but still found a way to win. Would've been easy to just say f*ck it and let this one go after winning 14 straight but they battled tough and pulled it out. Good win.

[LakerHater]

Duncan: 29 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals

[Cry Havoc]

No, it's because TP is selfish, hero ball scrub, that maybe moves the ball 60% as much as he should, actually.

Moving your goal posts now, I see. :lol

[ElNono]

smh Gino

[TE]

Fuck man. An injury to an integral component like Green disrupts whatever rhythm he was in. I hope he's back soon.

[RD2191]

Denver seriously needs to fuck off.

[Cry Havoc]

Holy shit.... George Hill just bricked 2 free throws at the line to give Miami a chance. Indy was up 4 with 8 seconds left and might lose. :wow :wow :wow

[loveforthegame]

Hill choked.

[Kool Bob Love]

A team goes as far as their defensive anchor in the post takes them... this is shocking to you?

Nope. Just hate that Parker didn't let Duncan finish 6. Fucking made me feel so type of way all summer.

Parker redeems himself in June all is forgiven.

[ElNono]

well, #15!

[SpursRock20]

Denver commentators right after that TD bucket: "Oh and a NICE push in the back by Duncan right there."
How can you hate on Duncan? Stupid ass commentators. They should be enjoying perhaps the best statistical game Duncan might put up in his career, but instead, they are blasting him.

[TE]

George hill just choked at the ft line

[ElNono]

:flag: We win!

[BatManu20]

George Hill about to lose the game for Indiana

[EVAY]

No, it's because TP is selfish, hero ball scrub, that maybe moves the ball 60% as much as he should, actually.

right. "He's a scrub". You really are proving your idiocy.

[japre8]

Pretty ugly win, but a win none the less.

[Cry Havoc]

Nope. Just hate that Parker didn't let Duncan finish 6. Fucking made me feel so type of way all summer.

So Tony told Pop to take Duncan out of the game? You're laying 6 on him? Are you serious?

[superjames1992]

Well, that was terrible but a win is a win.

[TE]

Ah, Pacers win.

[RD2191]

Damn, that was close.

[Cry Havoc]

Pacers win one of the ugliest games.... :wow It was worse than ours!

[FaM0us Skins]

Good win over Denver.

[mclinejr]

well, #15!

It was ugly, but I'll take it.

[EVAY]

Nope. Just hate that Parker didn't let Duncan finish 6. Fucking made me feel so type of way all summer.

Parker redeems himself in June all is forgiven.

If you tell him that I'm sure he will be soooo relieved.

[DapDaGenius]

I now have a couple of people to hate on the Nuggets. Brooks, Arthur, oh and that beotch Nuggets commentator.

[loveforthegame]

Ugly win but we'll take it.

[DPG21920]

Sure, the last part is really stupid from people. He's amazing when playing well. Again, my concern is that he was so tired or injured (coasting card was not really viable early on ) that Pop did a drastic move and rested him 3+ weeks. If someone is either tired or injured, 3 weeks should cure one of all ailments. Then he came back and still looks gassed. But, I am willing to wait and see, but I would not be at all surprised if if comes out that he's injured much more than the Spurs are letting on.

He needs to be able to go full speed in the playoffs and I really hope he can.

Manu trying to emulate 6 at the free throw line, tbh. :cry

[TheGoldStandard]

A good kick in the pants tonight, lol at the mini meltdowns. Spurs are in the drivers seat guys.

[poeticism707]

Moving your goal posts now, I see. :lol

Let me break it down for you, as you are newbie:

TP ain't 21. He's not fast. He's not even quick. All he is crafty.

His J is broke.

He's old and used up from playing selfishly over seas for ever DECADE WITHOUT A SINGLE BREAK.

All these 3 point shooters on the Spurs, TP should be averaging 13 points and 12-13 assists.

But he's always chasing stupid, empty hero numbers, instead of winning numbers.

[Cry Havoc]

I now have a couple of people to hate on the Nuggets. Brooks, Arthur, and that beotch Nuggets commentator.

Personally I LOVE salty commentating from the other team. It's so hilarious to listen to. The only weird thing is they actually get paid to be that unprofessional on the air.

[Mugen]

Spurs win!

also, ban OP tbh.

[Kool Bob Love]

So Tony told Pop to take Duncan out of the game? You're laying 6 on him? Are you serious?

Parker wants to be the superstar so he gets full blame last year. Lebron would have got it. So why not Parker? He's our MVP right?

[timtonymanu]

I'll take a loss if it meant Green didn't go down. :depressed

[Mikeanaro]

Horrible 2ndo half and I blame Pop for letting TP run the show with some dumb decisions, after the last timeout they started moving the ball and things worked fine.

[TheGoldStandard]

So Tony told Pop to take Duncan out of the game? You're laying 6 on him? Are you serious?

Tony: Hey Pop, I'll give you an expensive bottle of wine if you take Timmy out..

Pop: How expensive?

Tony: Oh it's expensive, it's french..

Pop: Tim come here a minute

[Cry Havoc]

[Budkin]

Moral loss tbh

[Captivus]

Good game, good night!

[DPG21920]

What an amazing streak and not every game should be easy. This one was for the most part but it slipped away. Still, impressive win on top LAC losing.

Let's just hope Danny is ok.

[Cry Havoc]

Tony: Hey Pop, I'll give you an expensive bottle of wine if you take Timmy out..

Pop: How expensive?

Tony: Oh it's expensive, it's french..

Pop: Tim come here a minute

Pop: Now what's all this here?

Tony: He called me a punto!

Pop: Tony, you're French. Not Hispanic.

Tony: Ach! Merde!

[rick1991]

I'll take a loss if it meant Green didn't go down. :depressed

What happend to him?

[Johnny RIngo]

So Tony told Pop to take Duncan out of the game? You're laying 6 on him? Are you serious?

6-23 shooting. Tony deserves some of the blame whether you want to admit it or not.

[TE]

I'll take a loss if it meant Green didn't go down. :depressed
Exactly. An injury hurts us more than a win.

[Cry Havoc]

What happend to him?

Sprained foot.

[crc21209]

Ugh, hope Green can come back in a week or two. I hate seeing him out. He and Kawhi make our perimeter defense great. Without one of them, we're left starting Beli most likely :td

[BatManu20]

Really hoping Danny's alright. He's integral to this team's success, whether you like him or not.

[Cry Havoc]

6-23 shooting. Tony deserves some of the blame whether you want to admit it or not.

Game winner in game 1. No Tony, that series is done in 5.

[SpursFan86]

A win is a win. This actually might be good in that Pop will chew the team out afterwards and have them focused for Friday.

I'm not concerned about the collapse against Denver tonight. I'm concerned with Green's foot. We're about to have a very tough stretch coming up, and the last thing we need is our 2nd best perimeter defender to be injured.

[SpursRock20]

Yeah guys. Tony Parker isn't quick.

[Johnny RIngo]

15 game win streak. 2 more wins and they tie the all-time Spurs record(1995-1996 Spurs won 17 straight)

[Kool Bob Love]

If you tell him that I'm sure he will be soooo relieved.

"I was lucky enough to win three times already. It's obviously going to hurt until I die. I'll be 95 years old and dying, and I'll be like, 'Oh, Game 6.' That's life." — San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker

[Cry Havoc]

I look for us to beat Denver by 30 on Friday.

[Johnny RIngo]

Game winner in game 1. No Tony, that series is done in 5.

Tony sucked ass throughout that series. Very Kobe-like Finals series for him. Take a lot of bad shots, miss the good majority of them. Get carried by your team for most of the games. Hit a clutch basket or two and take the credit for the win.

[crc21209]

Green has to be back by Monday. Sorry bro, you're not allowed to be hurt :lol. Next week is gonna be a bitch @Indiana, vs. GS, and @ OKC[/MENTION]...

[poeticism707]

Let me break it down for you:

Stop talking. :hat

What a moron. Can't read English, so doesn't bother to respond to facts.

But by all means, keep defending the scrub, because he came up SO BIG in the Finals last year, did he not?

Bon appetit for you and frenchie.

6-23. Like why? Is this the spurs system that won us 4? Than you would expect him to bring it for game 7. Nope.

[SpurPadre]

Is it a given that DG will miss a game? I mean, at most just Friday's game?

[ElNono]

Yeah guys. Tony Parker isn't quick.

I hope so. I'll be at that game making noise.

[playbonner15]

Denver's loss means they're out of the playoff picture. So there's a reason for the comeback, aside from Parker sucking. Spurs already eliminated 2 former playoff teams this season - Nuggets and Lakers

[TampaDude]

Once again, the Spurs were just out there shooting some shots...just beating a team they were supposed to beat...still no surprises there. :hat

GO SPURS GO!!!!!

[Sean Cagney]

OP F off with threads, you should not make anymore EVER and I mean it... Go jinx another team honestly. You just had to try your luck and make a thread HUH? WHY FOOL we are so close to the playoffs man :( DAMN YOU. You are the Madden curse it is real.

[Fireball]

Spurs really thought they were the Harlem Globetrotters, too many errant passes in the 2nd half that led to a comeback by the Nugs. But I am confident about Fridays game, because the Spurs play much more calm and collected on the road. They will not throw the ball around again this time ...

[EVAY]

i'd like to see someone photoshop Parker passing to an open shooter, but that might require Industrial Light and Magic tbh.

Well of course this is obvious! Take the first half of this game when Parker had a total of two shot attempts and 5 assists.

That's right, it would require Industrial Light and Magic.

And then people on this board were bitching because he looked like he wasn't trying. Oops!!

Brilliant.

[CGD]

Glad Spurs won, but what a sloppy game. Hopefully it will refocus the team for the game in Denver.

Also, Manimal is a stud. Love how he plays the game! Relentless.

[CGD]

Also OP must be banned from starting game threads. This is getting out of hand.

[MI21]

Spurs were clearly going through the motions and mucking around during this game. The hard cuts stopped after about 8 minutes, players were just half-assed. I take nothing from this game, except for some inexplicable reason Kawhi wouldn't take himself into the post with Randy fucking Foye guarding him.. Annoying.

[urunobili]

this dude is still allowed to open threads? WFT????
