Leonard still out?

This will be televised on Miami's Sun Network. Might be blacked out outside Miami if you have the channel, but hopefully there will be some streams available.

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat
(https://twitter.com/IraHeatBeat)Spurs are listing Patty Mills, Tiago Splitter and Kawhi Leonard as out for tonight. Spoelstra had said no Wade or Bosh.


Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN
(https://twitter.com/JMcDonald_SAEN)Splitter and Leonard were both on the floor at the end of shootaround today, so I'd wager they're getting close(r). Will ask Pop tonight.

Green already has a baseline version of that curl (meaning that he starts at the FT line and curls to the short corner instead of the other way around). He was hit or miss on that. We'll see if he's more successful when he has a better angle at the basket.

[apalisoc_9]

No leonard again?

Is Green playing?

Might as well watch and see what Kyle is made off...

Have no idea how Cotton is just -2. Dude was hot garbage.

[ElNono]

They did it again. They probably will win game 7, but who cares? They've had to expend too much energy in the process for it to matter in the long run and if the Trail Blazers wrap it up tonight, they're probably gone in six games. Either way, a championship is no longer realistic, not just because of that, but because of the lack of a top ten player. It's been their Achilles heel all season and it's cost them in this series.

That and the fact that they're a bunch of mentally fragile (heck, post game six, might as well call it, broken) losers. The way they played in game four was beyond embarrassing. Literally were done from the start until Ginobili grabbed them by the scruff of the neck and willed them to survival. The rest all looked terrified from the jump, particularly down the stretch, when it was clear none of them wanted the ball. Then tonight, another predictable collapse down the stretch, filled with more laughable coaching.

This team never had me fooled this season.

:lmao... he should have his username revoked tbh. somebody like that isn't worthy of TD 21

[Chinook]

Kyle O'Quinn had a very solid game against Philly (14/11/4 with 3 blocks in 30 minutes). Really think he'd be a good pickup for anything short of eight figures per year.

[manufan10]

SMH all of these turnovers.

[Mikeanaro]

Too many FTs

Marco B is fucking garbage tbh

Joseph is actually a pretty competent PG when he doesn't have to play off the ball. He's not a good fit with Manu, though.

Okay, I'm on board the Daye sucks train. I saw some productive things in his games last season, but he has been terrible in summer league and preseason. Anyone can chuck it from anywhere. Guy is just streaky shooter.

[RD2191]

:pctoss

[Chinook]

Pop needed a timeout there. It wasted more time for them to play OT than it would for them to just set up a game-winner.

[manufan10]

:lol OT in a meaningless game.

[Seventyniner]

Kyle O'Quinn had a very solid game against Philly (14/11/4 with 3 blocks in 30 minutes). Really think he'd be a good pickup for anything short of eight figures per year.

Please tell me you meant seven.

[Spurs Brazil]

OT :lol

[Mikeanaro]

Miami had 43 freebies thats very Thunderesque.

[Chinook]

Please tell me you meant seven.

No. I mean anything less than $10 Million APY. He looks really good, and his rate numbers are tremendous. I wouldn't pay him a lot before striking out in the big free agency, but I would bid quite high to snatch him from Orlando.

[Prime Time]

Daye is just the worst.

[Chinook]

Anderson better not develop Diaw 1.0 syndrome.

[Mikeanaro]

Butterhands.

[Chinook]

Spurs should two-for-one this.

[Jack Hould]

Errors with clutch boards. Uh huh!
with his semen still fresh on your face, Errors fucks it up at the end :lol uh huh!

[Seventyniner]

No. I mean anything less than $10 Million APY. He looks really good, and his rate numbers are tremendous. I wouldn't pay him a lot before striking out in the big free agency, but I would bid quite high to snatch him from Orlando.

The biggest predictor of the size of a contract is a player's scoring average, and I'm not sure O'Quinn will score enough to get that kind of attention. Who would pay him $10M anyway?

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

GREEN WOULDA DIVED FOR THAT

[Mikeanaro]

LOL HE PULLED A DURANT!

[Uriel]

Wow.

I don't think he'll get anything near that. I think if he were a UFA, he's get an MLE-level deal. But since he's restricted, he may need another couple million per year. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Magic moneyball by keeping O'Quinn over Vucevic (who's expected to get a max offer sheet if he doesn't sign an extension). They're pretty much the same player, but Kyle is better defensively while Nik is better at scoring in the post.

[ceperez]

cojo with consecutive turnovers

Spurs should cut Joseph. Just too many turn overs for a PG. Unacceptable!

[Jack Hould]

thank Kirk Cousins that abortion is over

[tim_duncan_fan]

Bwahahahahahahahaha CoJo!

This is gonna be a good year and CoJo is gonna be somebody, but that shit was funny!

Wtf Pop... why no timeout down 3 with 4 seconds to go??? We could have had it at half-court and gotten a decent shot for 3.

Shameful.

[look_at_g_shred]

Nice Game by Anderson. Don't give a fuck what anyone says.

[Silver&Black]

We all need to say a prayer tonight for the speedy recovery of MVPatty....

[look_at_g_shred]

Wtf Pop... why no timeout down 3 with 4 seconds to go??? We could have had it at half-court and gotten a decent shot for 3.

Shameful.
Chill bruh.

[Chinook]

Should have given it to Anderson (though Cory was the obvious choice for a full-court sprint). Pop needed to call a damned timeout it doesn't help anyone for him to half-ass the end of a game. Hell, let Manu draw up a play like he did a few years ago.

[jhuan16]

Hope this is the last game we are going to see Daye on the court.

[Mikeanaro]

Kyle played his first overtime, I think he can be really good and his speed will translate to the NBA without problems.

[DapDaGenius]

Nice Game by Anderson. Don't give a fuck what anyone says.

Definitely had a good game stats wise. I didn't watch the game, so how did he do defensively?

[Budkin]

:lol Spurs

Do you honestly care?

[look_at_g_shred]

Not sure man. I'm sure that's the main part of his game that needs work. But out of all rookies who play big minutes and put up similar numbers. I'm impressed!! Love my dudes game forreal!

[Rito3d30]

Anderson's kinda developing into Diaw 1.0

And I'm praying Daye and Ayres will be inactive as long as they are in silver & black uniform

[Purch]

Anyone got Anderson highlights from this game?

[look_at_g_shred]

Anyone got Anderson highlights from this game?

[313]

Anyone got Anderson highlights from this game?

[FuzzyLumpkins]

I only saw the second half on that shitty feed but it looked to me that Anderson's defensive issues were more to overplaying things and not understanding position defense in different areas on the floor. He needs to develop his body and get stronger but he was far from overmatched physically against the Miami bench. He looks like he has the frame to grow into it.

He has the ability to break down defenses with the dribble. He is an offensive creator of an order better than Green, Mills, or Leonard already. He will help the offense flow on the second unit especially if Manu is not on the floor.

[TheyCallMePro]

Definitely had a good game stats wise. I didn't watch the game, so how did he do defensively?

I watched the game on a crappy online stream, but I did see Anderson get his hands on a couple of balls and force some steals. The ESPN box score doesn't credit him for any, but his length and long arms definitely helped him defensively tonight. Otherwise he looked slow and was blown by 5 or 6 times, and I don't know what you can do about that. The Spurs do help a lot on D, and if Anderson's beaten we'll always have Duncan/Splitter at the rim, but if it's Chris Paul or any good passing guard then it becomes a real problem. But Anderson should absolutely not be guarding 1 and 2's so it shouldn't be a big issue. Definitely excited about what he brings to this team offensively though, as he looked as smooth as advertised tonight and didn't make a single bad decision all game.

Ginobili had 6TO's, the worst +/- , and has looked like shit so far

I don't have a problem with Andersons speed, but instead his quickness. He cannot accelerate well defensively at all. Maybe the trainers need to work on developing the twitch muscle fibers in his legs.

It's a shame Anderson is such a bean pole. If he were big enough to play the four full time, he'd be a great future fit in the SL. The M3 could protect him. Anderson has the ability to funnel his man, but the rest of his teammates need to be able to help him. When the bigs were there, Kyle did well enough. But he can't defend on an Island like Lock-n-Lock can.

Anyone got Anderson highlights from this game?

Do you honestly care?
Of course not. :lol Preseason is preseason is preseason. Hence the blue font.

I don't see anything in Cojo tbh, failed in crunch time twice (end of the 4th and end of OT), doesn't run the offense well, still goes back to his hunchback stance, play hard on D but still gets scored on since he's not that big...

Thanks for posting the KA highlights. His offensive game is so smooth and he sets his teammates up so well. If he is able to improve his quickness so he can stay in front of his man he will be part of the regular rotation without question.

The Heat just won the preseason championship in San Antonio in OT, LOL. jk. It's just the preseason, your gonna have sloppy play by both teams. They didn't play Bosh, Wade, Deng and Spurs didn't play Parker, Spltter, Leonard. So it was all meaningless, but what I didn't like was all the damn turnovers by the Spurs, got to cut that down. If the shots don't fall fine, but the turnovers will kill you in a game everytime. It was really sloppy and ugly at times and way to many silly fouls. Though without LeBron, if the Spurs and Heat make it to the 2015 nba finals for a rematch, Spurs will beat them 4-1 again, maybe even sweep em. I don't think the Heat will even sniff the finals though.

Eh. Its alright. You'll live. When the regular season comes the Heat and the Cavs are screwed.
