[tony77]

so glad that wasn't Duncan throwing those free throws

[blkroadrunners]

Watch Tyreke hits the GW

[FaM0us Skins]

Clutch DG.

[Splits]

Thankfully Monty Williams is their coach

[hyhy]

will tyreke evans make his 3rd buzzer beater in a game?

[Silver&Black]

Get another HUGE stop!!!!

[manufan10]

:lol cheaters relying on shady officiating

We're stealing the Thunder M.O.

[spursparker9]

lol Timmy out agian?

[Malik Hairston]

:lol it's sad that I already know a shitty player like Evans or Gordon is going to make a fluke GW, tbh..

[milkyway21]

believe on Danny Green baby!!!

DEFENSE!!

[beirmeistr]

Keep the same guys if it goes ot

[RD2191]

Fuck

[Obi Juan Kenobi]

We still got time for this...

[ElNono]

Pop went back to the bench guys

[KL2]

He's been on the team for 4 years now and seems to have regressed a lot since his 2nd season. :lol

I thought he's played pretty well this season, he looks much more confident. He's been with SA for a long time but not really in late game situations like this.

[Silver&Black]

AD taking Big Banger to school.....

[Chomag]

That was a good move by Davis.

[timtonymanu]

Better Davis than some fluky shit by Gordon or Evans.

[manufan10]

Too easy.

[Budkin]

Always the same story

[spursparker9]

Too easy for Davis...

[Blizzardwizard]

Baynes :lol

[r0drig0lac]

this was the best defense we could do? really

[KL2]

Good d by Baynes, Davis just made a play.

[Splits]

:cry wish Tiago didn't have such a sore vag :cry

[spursparker9]

Big 3 is in

[justinandimcool]

taking out Tim :lol

[r0drig0lac]

inb4 alba berlin...

[hyhy]

parker iso again..

[Obi Juan Kenobi]

Almost!!!

[ace3g]

damn...

[RD2191]

Damn

[Silver&Black]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK!!!!

[loveforthegame]

Damn.

[Kool Bob Love]

Fuuuuuuuuu no max for Kawhi.

[rogues]

:lmao Spurs

[ElNono]

damn Kiwi had it

[TheGreatYacht]

Pulling Duncan on the last defensive play... Where have I seen that before

[timtonymanu]

Pretty impressive considering how ugly that game was. Reality check for Spurs fans. Get use to some ugly basketball for a while until our guys get healthy.

[Chomag]

Dammit! Well at least it got interesting

[FaM0us Skins]

Damn we came up short..

[spursparker9]

Kawhi hesitated too long when his shot was blocked

[daslicer]

Our max player came through at the end.

[Baam]

:lmao military nights are always shitty tbh

[DapDaGenius]

HAHA Wow...well, good try, Spurs. We almost had it. Maybe if they learn to stop the dumbass turnovers, we wouldn't be in that situation.

[Kool Bob Love]

Fuuuuuuuuu.....fucking bitch man.

[beirmeistr]

There is still a lesson for pop and tp. One player cannot beat five

[milkyway21]

Defense

[justinandimcool]

:lol putting Baynes in up by 1 :lol

:lol nice try max player


fun comeback though

[Budkin]

Fucked around too long and paid the price.

[Darius Bieber]

Spurs fans thinking Patty and Splitter are the answer... :lmao The Spurs are playing horrible, injury is not the excuse. They sucked today.

[DapDaGenius]

Fuck you tbh

Called it, just the wrong player. LOL Fuck you, too.

[crc21209]

Pop....why the hell did he put Baynes of all people on Davis? Why not Tim? Baynes is the slowest footed guy to cover Davis. Damn it...

[Johnny RIngo]

There is still a lesson for pop and tp. One player cannot beat five

Thought they learned that after the 2013 Finals when TP heroballed the Spurs out of a title.

[Reck]

Time to get that ass waxed again, spurs.

And waxed, it got.

[Roger Freemason Jr.]

The Spurs defense looks scary bad.

[spursparker9]

Pop....why the hell did he put Baynes of all people on Davis? Why not Tim? Baynes is the slowest footed guy to cover Davis. Damn it...

Yeah. At least put Boris on Davis rather than Baynes on Davis

[Chomag]

ball movment!!!! Hope they noticed

[hyhy]

parker had the reverse layup there. why did he decide to pass at the last sec?

[Ice009]

Pop....why the hell did he put Baynes of all people on Davis? Why not Tim? Baynes is the slowest footed guy to cover Davis. Damn it...

Don't know. Pop has a weird thing going for not having TD in there on some of the biggest defensive stands when the game is on the line.

[ElNono]

what a tease... the good news is that if we actually try to play hard for a bit longer, we should be winning these games

[r0drig0lac]

14-14-3 for kawhi

[Josh810]

Lol, 5th game of the season everyone.

[KL2]

Spurs will be very solid this year, very solid once everyone is healthy and they gain their rhythm, I'm liking what I see out there.

and fucking shit this fight is taking forever to start.

[Silver&Black]

Called it, just the wrong player. LOL Fuck you, too.

Well congrats on your Pelicans win tonight....at least you're happy.

[milkyway21]

TP could've done it to OT.

Well, if not for the TO that was one nice but thrilling game

[Silver&Black]

Go ahead and start the "We can still finish 79-3" thread El Nono.....we need reassurance.

[beirmeistr]

Thought they learned that after the 2013 Finals when TP heroballed the Spurs out of a title.

So did I

[timtonymanu]

Hopefully Pop gets rid of that beard. Don't need another 2009 type season. :lol

[Roger Freemason Jr.]

Well, just sucks for them that their superstar is a Jacob's Ladder.

[justinandimcool]

IMO CIA Pop move putting Baynes in to see how he'd react. Kid was given a test and he blew it.

[Budkin]

Hope we play the Clips healthy.

[Chomag]

Hero ball just does not work for the spurs. They are at their best when they have ball movement like we saw them in the last finals

[timtonymanu]

Ayres is shit obviously, but I wanted to see if he could shut down Davis again like he did that one game last season. :lol

[Baam]

IMO CIA Pop move putting Baynes in to see how he'd react. Kid was given a test and he blew it.

If Pop expected Baynes to stop a top 5 player one on one then he's the one who failed...

[timtonymanu]

Pop mad scientist game + the Pelicans playing like it's a title game (Evans and Gordon fluky shots :lol, Holiday looking like an all star).

Not worried here. We still nearly won.

[siraulo23]

last 6 mins with the 2nd unit played well, ball movement was PO mode like :)

ugliest spurs game in a while except the last 6 mins, everyone was forcing it particularly kawhi and manu in a couple of possessions, tp well we expect it from him so... and he played pretty well

[FlAVaK]

Hopefully Pop gets rid of that beard. Don't need another 2009 type season. :lol

As a posted earlier responding a question about the last time Spurs had a losing record, it was the 2009 season! Funny coincedence...

[FlAVaK]

IMO CIA Pop move putting Baynes in to see how he'd react. Kid was given a test and he blew it.

This.

[spursparker9]

Hopefully Pop gets rid of that beard. Don't need another 2009 type season. :lol

I swear I wanted to say this in the preseason.

Now its happening. Below .500 since 2009

[spursparker9]

How easily could have been 0-5.

The win over Dallas and Atlanta was pretty close.

[beirmeistr]

Can you imagine if we had played heroball against the Heat ? We would have been swept 4 to 0 and the Heat Would be intact this season.

[Malik Hairston]

How easily could have been 0-5.

The win over Dallas and Atlanta was pretty close.

They could easily be 4-1, too:lol..

[Mnky]

They could easily be 4-1, too:lol..

[loquats]

:lol it's sad that I already know a shitty player like Evans or Gordon is going to make a fluke GW, tbh..

If you think Eric Gordon and Tyreke Evans are "shitty" basketball players, you obviously need to watch more basketball. Evans has been hitting shots all year so far. Gordon has been in a slump, but he's never been regarded as a bad shooter.

I mean, be a homer and all but Jesus man.

:lol Evans and Gordon were ranked near the bottom in RAPM last year, they're both net negative, inefficient players that hurt their team..

Tyreke Evans is one of the worst perimeter shooters in recent NBA history, he shot 22% from 3 last season:lol..

Eric Gordon hasn't been a good player in 4-5 years..he's soft, doesn't play defense and can't stay on the court..

Sorry to break it to you..

[loquats]

:lol Evans and Gordon were ranked near the bottom in RAPM last year, they're both net negative, inefficient players that hurt their team..

Sorry to break it to you..

Again, watch more basketball. Evans numbers were skewed from when he had to come off the bench earlier last season. Never mind his first year with a new team racked by injuries. Towards the end of the year his numbers improved greatly. He also worked on his shot last summer and its paying off this year, not just against the Spurs

Gordon also came off injury but overall was solid last year, again, on a team suffering through injuries. Shot 39% from three.

Stats won't give you context. Get league pass and WATCH more basketball. No GM in this league would call Gordon or Evans "shitty." Not one.

There's a cancerous aspect to them too... hopefully the loser mentality doesn't rub on AD, he looks like a nice kid

[loquats]

Wow. Makes me glad they won tonight. Spurs fans....I tell ya. :downspin:

Later!

[Malik Hairston]

Gordon isn't really a cancer, he's just a pussy that shouldn't be starting for an NBA team, more of a bench player, tbh..

I agree about Evans, though..perimeter players that can't shoot and like to ISO have been cancer on the court from a historical standpoint..

[apalisoc_9]

Gordon couldn't take a shit without breaking a rib, and he raped them with his last deal... that dude gonna get $15m this year and the next one... they got lucky they landed AD, otherwise Gordon is basically another franchise killer...

[DapDaGenius]

Well congrats on your Pelicans win tonight....at least you're happy.

Nawh, I'm a Spurs fan, dummy. It was just obvious that it was going to happen. Very disappointed with the loss, btw.

[ElNono]

Wow. Makes me glad they won tonight. Spurs fans....I tell ya. :downspin:

Later!

congrats on the win

[Silver&Black]

Good win....you guys are going to give us trouble for the next decade.

[Sean Cagney]

Pop mad scientist game + the Pelicans playing like it's a title game (Evans and Gordon fluky shots :lol, Holiday looking like an all star).


That seems to happen quite a few times a year TBH.

[Silver&Black]

Nawh, I'm a Spurs fan, dummy. It was just obvious that it was going to happen. Very disappointed with the loss, btw.

I know man. You were just being a "Negative Nancy" at the time.

It reminded me of the movie "Major League". The Cleveland Indians come back to take the lead....and one of the Indians fans yells out, "They'll blow it in the 9th."

[DapDaGenius]

Oh, lol. Never saw that movie.

[Silver&Black]

Oh, lol. Never saw that movie.

I don't know what I'm more disappointed with....you calling for the Spurs demise after we took the lead...or the fact that you've never seen the movie "Major League".
