Game 74: Spurs vs Pacers: Monday March 31, 2014 6:00 CT

[ElNono]

did Patty play in the D-League?

yes, when he was a Blazer

[superjames1992]

Why did CIA Pop take Manu out of the game late in the quarter? Then Indiana started to come back.

[BatManu20]

Would love an early run here to send a message.

[SpurPadre]

David West has the face of an asshole.

He would always talk shit when he was a Hornet with CP3.

[Captivus]

Ok. 10 Pts up starting the 4th.

[ElNono]

Not with the Spurs though. Patty has never suited up for the Toros.

correct. He was sent to the D-League with the Stampede when he was a Blazer

[RD2191]

wtf kawhi

[ElNono]

damn gotta hit those open 3s

[superjames1992]

Jesus, Kawhi... Yikes.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

This is what I was afraid of

[RD2191]

:lmaoSpurs play a good team and start sucking, rofl

[Captivus]

Someone moved that basket!!

[SpurPadre]

FUCK. two straight horrible offensive possessions.

[superjames1992]

LMAO, what was that, Patty? :lol

[loveforthegame]

Diaw!!

[ElNono]

Boris 2.0

[Cry Havoc]

Diaw so pretty!!!!

[EVAY]

Teams that possess a good offense and an uptempo playing styles are the one's most conducive to create big scoring runs.

The Pacers possess neither.

Well thank god for that!!

[BatManu20]

Role players shitting the bed tonight offensively. Refs making it harder with ridiculous foul calls on Spurs.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Another freaking foul, come on!

[RD2191]

:lmaorefs

[Captivus]

Refs want the Bonus!

[crc21209]

Refs sucking that Pacer dick now...

[313]

Refs are the only reason these clowns are in the game

[ElNono]

wow this bullshit

[Southwest Texas Fan]

No fucking way!!!:bang

[RD2191]

:lmao

[loveforthegame]

:bang:

[SpurPadre]

only 1 foul to give with over 10 minutes left.

[Captivus]

Nice Tiago!! NICE! More of that!

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Miss the second free throw.

[superjames1992]

LOL at clowns blaming the refs. :lol

[Darius McCrary]

Tiago barely avoiding a posterizing.

[loveforthegame]

Marco laying an egg.

[crc21209]

No wonder George is slumping now, does the fucker ever rest? Their coach is an idiot...

[RD2191]

marco choking when it matters

[ElNono]

come on Beli

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Spurs aren't doing themselves any favors missing shots.

[r0drig0lac]

lol belli

[jag]

Rasual Butler looks like he should be homeless

[ElNono]

make your freebies

[Hoops Czar]

Get Belinelli out of the game please!

[313]

MVParker in here to close this out

[313]

Tiago barely avoiding a posterizing.

[ElNono]

back to 10pt game

[BatManu20]

Pacers are gonna be shooting FT's the rest of the way here any moment. It's like playing OKC.

[jkid12456]

YO WHY DID PATTY MILLS GET SENT OFF???

[Southwest Texas Fan]

MVParker in here to close this out

:tu

[ElNono]

boris 2.0!

[Cry Havoc]

Boris stepping uppppppppppppppppppp

[rasho8]

Diaw... Yeah

[EVAY]

Nice. Diaw from Tony!!

[Darius McCrary]

The 1st Q is still the difference in this game. Tie game the rest of the way.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Don't bite on that!

[Captivus]

Tiago doing work!

[MeloHype]

:lol wtf

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Holy shit Tiago!

[ElNono]

golden boy!

[Cry Havoc]

Ooohhhh Tiago!!!!!

:lol Mahimi.

[EVAY]

Well done Tiago.

[superjames1992]

Tiago with THE SCOOP!

[Cry Havoc]

PG with the lowest IQ shot in the game. :lmao

[timtonymanu]

Why is the corpse of Rasual Butler hitting shots?

[RD2191]

Paul George traveled liked 3 times on that possession.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard making him work but he's still making it look easy.

[313]

The 1st Q is still the difference in this game. Tie game the rest of the way.
coasting

[BatManu20]

Paul George about to take over tbh

[SpurPadre]

Good D by Kawhi there but George made the tough shot.

[MeloHype]

That faggot George is making all these bs fade away shots

[rasho8]

Tiago realized Mahinmi isn't Hibbard.

[ElNono]

Kawhi is doing a tremendous job on PG, tbh... PG is just a shot maker

[ElNono]

you would think PG will tire out eventually

[Fireball]

I like how Pop keeps Leonard on the floor as long as PG is out there

[BatManu20]

Is Manu going to play again tonight tbh?

[RD2191]

Paul George is a fucking scrub, overrated because he plays in the garbage East. Fuck that dude.

[ElNono]

don't wanna hear how the Pacers suck or are not trying, tbh.... they're playing as hard as they can

[313]

Is Manu going to play again tonight tbh?Probably around 5 min

[ElNono]

Is Manu going to play again tonight tbh?

yes

[Darius McCrary]

George is so awesome. That was great D by Kawhi. Just an amazing shot.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

where's Manu?

[superjames1992]

PlayManu, tbh.

[rasho8]

don't wanna hear how the Pacers suck or are not trying, tbh.... they're playing as hard as they can

Yeah they aren't just lying down. They are fighting with all they have, they can't use their bench because it sucks.

[MeloHype]

Diaw > Lee

[loveforthegame]

Diaw. :tu

[Cry Havoc]

Holy shit, Boris taking OVAH

[ElNono]

[313]

Pacers on pace to score over 80 :(

[ElNono]

THAT dude with the thick long thing

[timtonymanu]

Lol its a weak season for the Heat but they are easily gonna make the Finals again. What a joke of a conference.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard!!

[RD2191]

Lol its a weak season for the Heat but they are easily gonna make the Finals again. What a joke of a conference.

[BatManu20]

Here we go

[Cry Havoc]

Duncan FLUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSH

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Nice assist

[ElNono]

clinic!

[EVAY]

This game shows why I see Diaw maybe replacing Green in the starting lineup in the playoffs against long teams.

[Captivus]

Ewing...NEXT!

[313]

Kiwi to Duncan!

[superjames1992]

Belli taking over, shutting up the haters, per par...

[MeloHype]

:lol

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Belli taking over, shutting up the haters, per par...

:lol

[ElNono]

Boris is a matchup nightmare for them

[Killakobe81]

Spurs just busting that Pacer ass sure its the 2nd of a back2back and maybe if it wasnt it would be closer ...
But they were outcoached, outworked and out played and Pop is the main reason.

[ElNono]

looks like Gino gonna get some extra rest :tu

[313]

Diaw stepping up this season has been huge

[DesertSpur50]

Lol its a weak season for the Heat but they are easily gonna make the Finals again. What a joke of a conference.

To be fair, we shitted (shat?) on Miami, too.

[Captivus]

Where my 3 pointer willbreaker!??

[BatManu20]

Hell yes!

[rasho8]

Everyone is playing well. This is exactly what we need to beat the contenders. Luckily our starters can get more rest than the other teams because our bench could beat some starters.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard with some key plays late. :tu

[boutons_deux]

wow, killing 'em every which way

[SpurPadre]

That's game. The Big 3 can rest and get ready for the Dubs.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Up by 20. And their fans are booing!

[superjames1992]

Pacers. :lol

Boris is being run ragged. :cry

[ElNono]

yeah!!!!....

:lol how the fuck do these guys give miami so much trouble?

[Brazil]

Boris is a matchup nightmare for them

Boris 2.0 is a nightmare for the whole league tbh

dat Frenchie :hat

[KL2]

Leonard for MVP!

[Uriel]

The Spurs are beating down the best team in the Eastern Conference on later's own home floor. I don't see how they can be playing much better.

[Fireball]

:rollin

[spurraider21]

yeah!!!!....

http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f255/wiggy2/south-park-randy-masturbation.jpg
:cry this reminds me of Manu's game 5 in the finals

[Splits]

Diaw just having a magnificent season, Spurs offense so pretty to watch when he's in the zone

[SpurPadre]

:lol how the fuck do these guys give miami so much trouble?

Styles make fights, tbh.

[ElNono]

Regular season champs :flag:

[Darius McCrary]

I hate Drake with every fiber of my body. I thought that Sprite commercial was finished.

[CGD]

I'm shocked at how bad the Pacers are offensively.

Not that they're related, but boy they look poor since the deadline trade.

[timtonymanu]

Impressive win if we pull this off, tbh. Even though the Pacers have been playing like a bottom seed as of late.

[wildbill2u]

Beating the team with the best record in the East on their home court by 20--and the Pacers really need this one.

Very impressive if they continue and win

[crc21209]

This team is amazing to watch :tu

[BatManu20]

Kawhi is so good. He does all the little things and defends their best player. Lucky to have this guy.

[superjames1992]

Enrique has been fairly nonexistent in the second half. Others have stepped up. :tu

[RD2191]

wtf happened? got up to nuke a hot pocket and now this

[Killakobe81]

Spurs are clearly the best team this side of South Beach and maybe even better than them this year heck one rebound and they are the defending champs ...
My only concern is last time the Spurs looked THIS good they got backdoor swept by OKC.
Hopefully that was just a bad matchup and besides dumbass OKC traded Harden to the same conference ...

[Fireball]

Still hate that we likely lose to OKC again thanks to the scheduling

[Uriel]

Why are the starters still in the game??

[BatManu20]

Nuts

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BkGSDOzCMAAEgAl.jpg

[Captivus]

good D Kawhi

[ElNono]

always good to bitchslap David West, tbh

[Darius McCrary]

Kawhi always becomes the difference-making rebounder against younger, athletic teams. OKC, MIA, IND, etc. 11 Rebounds tonight, leading all Spurs.

[SpurPadre]

FWIW, Marco's D has looked solid tonight.

[Cry Havoc]

Spurs are clearly the best team this side of South Beach and maybe even better than them this year heck one rebound and they are the defending champs ...
My only concern is last time teh Spurs looked THIS good they got backdoor swept by OKC.
Hopefully that was just a bad matchup and besides dumbass OKC traded Harden to teh same conference ...

Oh

We have much better defenders and a much better bench this year. This team is so much better than 2011.

[superjames1992]

Empty the bench, Pop. PlayDaye.

[jag]

:lmaoSpurs play a good team and start sucking, rofl

Dumb mexican

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Great game from Parker. He's turned it up this season when it matters (national TV).

[KaiRMD1]

Remember when the Spurs couldn't beat good teams?

[Captivus]

bench for Pacers!! REALLY?

[Arcadian]

18 straight! That's a franchise record! Woo!

[ElNono]

Indiana wins this one easy

:rollin

[loveforthegame]

Much deserved rest for Leonard.

[Nathan89]

Like how Patty is give everyone a formal handshake. Probably saying "good game sir".

[MeloHype]

Remember when the Spurs couldn't beat good teams?
:cry 1-11

[RD2191]

Dumb mexican
I don't understand faggot, sorry.

[rasho8]

White flag is thrown. See ya Pacers. Go ahead and beat Miami so we don't have to deal with them.

[Darius McCrary]

FWIW, Marco's D has looked solid tonight.

I disagree, he was in no man's land when Rasual Butler nailed a wide wide open 3.

[SpurPadre]

Now the Spurs have to make themselves a challenge just for fun. Can they hold them under 80 points?

[Captivus]

Spurs with 4 3point shooters

[RD2191]

Good thing I never doubted this team.

[r0drig0lac]

ayressssssssss

[Capster]

:rollin

I LOVE THIS QUOTE!!!! Thanks for re posting!!!

[ElNono]

How crazy would be Kawhi-PG together???? and it could've been...

[Brazil]

Good thing I never doubted this team.

:lol

[Hoops Czar]

Jeff Ayres shutting up the haters.... oh, wait!

[Captivus]

Seconded

[SpurPadre]

Fuck that shit. I want revenge.

[Uriel]

Errors.

[313]

Hoping we can hold them under 80 :lmao

[SpurPadre]

LOL. Daye was the one who really fouled but the refs gave it to Ayres, just cuz.

[boutons_deux]

DAYE REMOVED CHAIR

[Splits]

Jeff Ayres shutting up the haters.... oh, wait!

Did you see that dunk? Who's bumping the church thread?

[Arcadian]

Tied for 8th longest streak of all time

[BatManu20]

Are these refs new? You can't just fall down a a player. That's a travel. Happened 3 times this game and they called nothing.

[Captivus]

AND ONE!!!

[r0drig0lac]

daye urgently needs to gain some weight

[Capster]

LOVE the Spurs handing Pacers their butts on a platter!!! LOL!!!

[BanditHiro]

lol Ayres with the no sportsmanship shot

[313]

Errors SHUTTING UP THE HATERS

[EVAY]

Are these refs new? You can't just fall down a a player. That's a travel. Happened 3 times this game and they called nothing.

I noticed that too. Thought to myself…how do they not call that?

[rasho8]

Pacers. Not OKC

[313]

lol Ayres with the no sportsmanship shot
:lmao

[timtonymanu]

This team just continues to impress me.

[Captivus]

RAPE RAPE RAPE!!

[EVAY]

CJ with a dynamite reverse!

[Killakobe81]

Spurs clowning these dudes even the scrubs

[Fireball]

I fear the Pacers will kill themselves now ... they need help

[DapDaGenius]

Won by 26 points!

:downspin:

[SpurPadre]

I disagree, he was in no man's land when Rasual Butler nailed a wide wide open 3.

I'm not saying he's Gary Payton now but he had some good on the ball D for the most part tonight.

No they have not. Unless they go on a 8 game win streak to close the season tehy are playing their worst and they will not beat the Heat without HCA ...

[Capster]

Pacers. Not OKC

Sorri.....just waiting for Thurs. game against OKC! Ooops!

[Killakobe81]

Well Pacers were not beating the heat anyway.

[Darius McCrary]

This Spurs era team could be winning 70 games in the fucking Eastern conference.

On a side note, I want Indiana to have home court over Miami...

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Jesus what a shellacking that turned into.

It was a SEVEN point game in the THIRD quarter, for fuck's sake, Pacers :lol

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

So do Spurs throw tomorrow's game against Golden State and try to beat OKC?

[TMTTRIO]

anyone know if Manu got injured tonight?

[ElNono]

anyone know if Manu got injured tonight?

nothing reported

[Brazil]

French mafia with the 36 points goods on 15/26

[Capster]

So do Spurs throw tomorrow's game against Golden State and try to beat OKC?

I hope not!!!

[Brazil]

anyone know if Manu got injured tonight?

Coasting

[BatManu20]

Well Pacers were not beating the heat anyway.

Yep. Been saying it since the beginning of the year. Miami will cake walk the first 2 rounds and beat Indy in 6 or so to reach the Finals once again. Pacers aren't good enough, even with home court.

[ElNono]

French mafia with the 36 points goods on 15/26

Frenchies were the shit, tbh...

[LoneStarState'sPride]

So do Spurs throw tomorrow's game against Golden State and try to beat OKC?

Hell, we've TRIED to throw our last two games against the Dubs this year, and still won :lol

[SpurPadre]

Diaw on NBATV and Barry is interviewing him. I'm sure he's thinking to himself, "My boy fucked your wife, lol"

[rasho8]

Nah just see if the bench can beat golden state after the starters score 70 in the first half.

[Brazil]

Frenchies were the shit, tbh...

:tu the two were having a so so stretch they must have bet something over this game tbh

thats quite reassuring to see bobo and TP with a solid game

[SpurPadre]

Yep. Been saying it since the beginning of the year. Miami will cake walk the first 2 rounds and beat Indy in 6 or so to reach the Finals once again. Pacers aren't good enough, even with home court.

Nah, I wouldn't be so sure. Styles make fights and the Pacers present serious matchup problems for the Heat. That will go 7 games either way...if Pacers make it that far.

[Brazil]

Diaw on NBATV and Barry is interviewing him. I'm sure he's thinking to himself, "My boy fucked your wife, lol"

Boris probably fucked her too but he is clever enough to clean his SMS tbh

[Mugen]

Spurs win! Viva La France!!!!

[Killakobe81]

That's Harlem not really the site tbh fwiw

GTrue Harlem was the ringleader but when they won in SA people in the gamethread seemed impressed. I admit he has Lebron but Spo seems better than Vogel tbh I just think he would be better off if he rested Lebron a bit more a la Pop ...I know James is in his prime and cares for his stats but he may be wore down by the end good thing they play in the East (for Heat fans)

[Brazil]

Spurs bench could make the POs in the Eastern conference tbh

[ElNono]

:tu the two were having a so so stretch they must have bet something over this game tbh

thats quite reassuring to see bobo and TP with a solid game

bobo been killing it all season... it's TP that didn't break out the grey poupon until this game

[Pauleta14]

I knew Tony couldn't throw a game against Hill...

[Roger Freemason Jr.]

Spurs straight styled on The Pacers. That was impressive. OKC going down next, their athleticism won't be enough anymore.

[SpurPadre]

Boris probably fucked her too but he is clever enough to clean his SMS tbh

Yeah, they probably even DP'd her, too.

[Killakobe81]

Nah, I wouldn't be so sure. Styles make fights and the Pacers present serious matchup problems for the Heat. That will go 7 games either way...if Pacers make it that far.

The last game in MIa will tell me how that series will go ... Heat could of won the last game in INdy if Pacers dont make a statement I say Heat win in 6 or less if Pacers make ECF.

[Brazil]

Spo was quite terrible in his debuts but I have to recognize he is doing a good job since last year. He is not anymore a liability by far.

[Killakobe81]

Spurs bench could make the POs in the Eastern conference tbh

True story if Pop was coaching Definitely better than Knicks/Hawks

[Uriel]

Spurs bench could make the POs in the Eastern conference tbh
They'd probably by the 3 seed, imo.

[SpurPadre]

The last game in MIa will tell me how that series will go ... Heat could of won the last game in INdy if Pacers dont make a statement I say Heat win in 6 or less if Pacers make ECF.

If Vogel didn't pull Hibbert for some inexplicable reason at the end of Game 1, Pacers beat the Heat last year. Ironic how Miami seems to pull out wins when the other team takes out their best big with the game on the line.

[Brazil]

bobo been killing it all season... it's TP that didn't break out the grey poupon until this game

Bobo has been superb this year but had some games off lately that's what I meant. The TP suckage this year is a tad overrated to be fair.

[Mugen]

honestly, I think the Pacers could still beat the Heat in a series. They get a super hard on when they see Miami jerseys pretty much how OKC and their mongoloid players turn into the Harlem Globetrotters when they play the Spurs.

But, the way they're playing, the ECF looks like a long shot tbh.
