Spurs @ Warriors, November 11th @ 9:30 PM CST

[SpursFan86]

Everyone else is slacking apparently so I'll go ahead and make the gameday topic.

Tim and Manu are questionable for tonight. David Lee is still out for the Warriors, which is bad news or us because Draymond Green is actually much better for them due to his defense + ability to space the floor. Klay Thompson is questionable as well as he's dealing with a sprained right wrist.

If I had to guess, Tim and Manu will play limited minutes tonight. Pop will have them on a short leash and will be quick to pull them out if GS starts pulling away.

:flag::flag::flag::flag::flag:

[RD2191]

Are David Lee and Bogut ever not injured? Damn, and I thought Splitter was bad.

[SpursFan86]

Oh, Klay Thompson is questionable as well. He missed their last game with a sprained right wrist, but participated in shootaround today. He's overrated but it'll be nice if he's not playing.

[DesignatedT]

He's been petty damn good this year not sure how overrated he is.

[peacemaker885]

Klay Thompson is legit IMO. If GS starts to play good defense, which they will learn eventually with Steve Kerr, they are a serious threat.

[cd98]

He's been petty damn good this year not sure how overrated he is.

Spurs fan would apparently never trade Patty Mills and Green for him.

[Mel_13]

Still wouldn't.

Spurs fans post 1997 are seriously the most spoiled fanbase in the NBA. Worse than the Lakers even.

[pgardn]

Lets see if Leonard can perform a back to back and yank a weaker lineup along with him.
Ya wanna get paid, get us a W on your back. Make Baynes look like a player, I dare ya.

This is usually the game where the Spurs beat the Warriors without the big 3 on the back of Mills, Beli, Splitter types... :(

[Uriel]

Yup. My thoughts exactly. :depressed

[jhuan16]

Bonner need more minutes.

[SpursFan86]

He's been petty damn good this year not sure how overrated he is.

5 game sample size. He had a hot start last year too and then came back down to earth.

Don't get me wrong. He's a good player, but he's not as good as lot of people (mainly the media) like to make him out to be. He's a good defender, not great, and he's streaky on offense. He doesn't really put up any numbers outside of scoring. He did seem to improve over the summer offensively; he's looked more comfortable getting to the rim and creating for himself...but I'm still not sure he's this bonafide all-star that people claim he is.

Sounds like limited minutes for our seniors. Hope so.

[Chomag]

Isn't there now fines if you rest players without giving notice in advance?

[milkyway21]

Dallas is struggling hope they lose and Spurs will win tonight :ihit

[heyheymymy]

We list them as "questionable".....it's all good.

[Uriel]

Okay, since Duncan and Ginobili are playing, here's our new list of excuses for when the Spurs inevitably lose this game:

1. They're missing 3 key players due to injury (Mills, Splitter, Bellinelli)
2. They're playing on the 2nd night of a back-to-back and their 5th game in 7 nights.
3. The Warriors are well rested and playing at home.
4. The Warriors will be extra motivated to win since they're coming off their first loss of the season.

So obviously, if the Spurs lose, it'll be because of those reasons. But if they win, it'll just be a testament to how great the Spurs really are.

[benstanfield]

Let's see if Kawhi can continue his utter 1-on-1 domination of Klay Thompson.

Or maybe Pop will save that look for April.

[r0drig0lac]

great game

[spursparker9]

Start the game already and stop Webber and his crapping

[spursparker9]

Kerr for coach of the year.

[tim_duncan_fan]

Oh let's do it.

Kawhi Leonard, prove me wrong!

[Uriel]

I have a 2,000 word paper on the Euro Debt Crisis due tonight, and I haven't even started yet. So of course I'm going to watch the Spurs game first.

:flag:

[spursparker9]

kyle in

lol he is in for 5 secs so that Pop can fuck Danny

[RD2191]

Rofl refs

[tim_duncan_fan]

Want to see Tim do something tonight besides playing offensive lineman for Tony and being spoon-fed like a grandpa.

But I can tell already that I'm not gonna get my way. He's still scared to have the ball in his hands.

[spursparker9]

Timmy has really slowed down tbh. defensive end

[tim_duncan_fan]

lol Bonner surprised himself with that steal.

[Uriel]

For all the talk about the Spurs being a new-age, analytics team, the Spurs do take a lot of mid-range jump shots.

[DapDaGenius]

LOL Bonner with a steal

[ElNono]

Pop obviously not using the playoffs-pairs on defense... you don't want to give them a free practice

[Brunodf]

The defense could be better...

[r0drig0lac]

Just give the ball to kawhi and stay out of the way, please

[spursparker9]

The defense could be better...

heavy legs i guess

[RD2191]

Kawhi

[spursparker9]

Wow kawhi.

that's a Lebron move tbh

[capek]

wow, what a shot by Kawhi! :tu

[RD2191]

Make him inactive during playoffs.

[RD2191]

Cojo, fuck

[DapDaGenius]

Yes, Cojo.

[RD2191]

Kawhi

[Uriel]

Bogut vs Baynes. Battle of the Aussie bigmen. Should be an interesting matchup to watch.

[timtonymanu]

Joseph on offense :lol

[spursparker9]

lol Cory wtf

[Uriel]

WTF KAWHI.

[timtonymanu]

smh CoJo

[RD2191]

Faggot curry

[DapDaGenius]

Welp...Cojo about to get shit on. :lol

[spursparker9]

WTF KAWHI.

Learning from Gilbert Arenas

[ElNono]

ugh Pop... you can't play Cojo against Curry

[loveforthegame]

Leonard set CoJo up perfectly and he fd it up.

[spursparker9]

Come mon, put Anderson in for Cory

[TheGreatYacht]

Just ate some Taco Bell... Gonna go drop a Cory Joseph. Keep me updated :tu

[RD2191]

Just ate some Taco Bell... Gonna go drop a Cory Joseph. Keep me updated :tu
:lol

[spursparker9]

Kyle is in

[Mel_13]

ugh Pop... you can't play Cojo against Curry

You can in November, not so much in May.

[ElNono]

Cojo's "offense" is horrible... dribbles, doesn't know where.... pulls out for an iso... smh

[RD2191]

Diaw wtf

[01Snake]

These fouls are getting out of control

[spursparker9]

Bad bad pass Boris

[ElNono]

You can in November, not so much in May.

No, I know... but if you're actually going to use the big 3 this game, I assume he wants to win?

[testies]

BS touch fouls

[ElNono]

manuuuuu

[spursparker9]

lol Brazillian Blur is in the NBA?

[r0drig0lac]

nice play by kyle

[ElNono]

Charlotte 64 - Portland 46 :lol

[Uriel]

Question for Americans. Is San Fransisco considered a "big market?"

[RD2191]

Fuck

[DapDaGenius]

Baynes!!

[01Snake]

Gino!

[Uriel]

Ginobili. :tu :tu :tu

[ElNono]

manuuuuuu

[DPG21920]

Kyle Anderson reminds of a Jackovasaur from South Park

[TheGreatYacht]

This is reminding me of the Manu-Splitter chemistry from 2011-2012

[r0drig0lac]

manuuuu

[jhuan16]

Manu da man

[DapDaGenius]

Announcer called it. :lol

[Brunodf]

Good end of quarter

[DesignatedT]

haha manu

[pgardn]

Fkn Ginobili.

There is always something else he does to amaze.

[hyhy]

Good quarter tbh. Looking more like the spurs

[spursparker9]

lol giving PS4 to the veteran?

[RD2191]

Lol

[beirmeistr]

The Parisian Torpedo is back in the game

[spursparker9]

Livingston has gotten blacker

[lefty]

lol giving PS4 to the veteran?

:lmao

[DPG21920]

lol giving PS4 to the veteran?

PTSD4

[01Snake]

Score for Christ's sake!

[spursparker9]

Banes u got to finish against Barbosa tbh

[Uriel]

Spurs playing great. :tu Amazing how much better this team is when they play hard and aren't coasting.

[Ditty]

Baynes making me shut up

[lefty]

PTSD4

:lol

[024]

At least Baynes is rebounding

[r0drig0lac]

Spurs starting to look scary again

[Mel_13]

Question for Americans. Is San Fransisco considered a "big market?"

Most lists have the Bay Area as the 6th largest TV market in the country.

[RD2191]

Smh

[RD2191]

Green gtfo

[timtonymanu]

Green on one of his usual cold streaks.

[ElNono]

fuck verde... that's a 6 point turnaround

[beirmeistr]

Great ball movement right now

[loveforthegame]

Green playing like shit on both ends.

[RD2191]

All that work for nothing. Thanks Green.

[TheGreatYacht]

Let some retarded team overpay Danny Green... Dude is fucking trash, probably the worst 3pt defender on the team besides Duncan

[DPG21920]

Pretty sure Manu just missed that practice shot

[Uriel]

Most lists have the Bay Area as the 6th largest TV market in the country.
So I'm assuming that means yes. Thanks.

[DPG21920]

So I'm assuming that means yes. Thanks.

Mel only opens the door. You have to walk through it.

[crc21209]

What a stupid ass rookie mistake by Green. Why did he come all the way from the other side of the floor to "show" help. It was useless. Besides, TD was there to help KA anyway...

[SpursFan86]

Alright Spurs, you can break out of this 3-point shooting slump any time now.

[r0drig0lac]

the team is trying to wrap kyle on offense

[heyheymymy]

barnes vs leonard is a great matchup to follow

[timtonymanu]

The hell with that lob? :lol

[RD2191]

Fuck

[crc21209]

Good shit Boris, even if it was a foul..

[milkyway21]

32 pts tie game 8:42 2QT

[TheGreatYacht]

SOMEONE TELL DRAYMOND GREEN AND KENDRICK PERKINS TO WASH THEIR FUCKING NECKS

[jhuan16]

where is the foul?

[beirmeistr]

Who, snother athletic leap by Diaw

[RD2191]

Sigh bonner

[spursparker9]

Boris 1.0

[spursparker9]

Who, snother athletic leap by Diaw

not so athletic after seeing the replay

[timtonymanu]

Luke Walton is an assistant now?

[Old School 44]

Call me superstitious, but Green better put in a request to get his old number back.

[spursparker9]

lol Livingston is a veteran?

then what is tony?

[lefty]

Fuck u Enrique

[Uriel]

Green is ICE COLD.

[RD2191]

Parker Smfh

[timtonymanu]

Danny come on

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Verde is shit

[ElNono]

can't wait til Kawhi gets back into the game and we run some plays for him

[loveforthegame]

Leonard not even getting a touch? smh

[Uriel]

Since when was Alvin Gentry Steve Kerr's assistant? :lol

[timtonymanu]

Meh, Green was struggling like this to start last season. Just needs to bring the goods in the playoffs.

[spursparker9]

lol Bonner nice

[lefty]

Since when was Alvin Gentry Steve Kerr's assistant? :lolbizarro world

[RD2191]

Kawhi vet move

[spursparker9]

Iso for Kawhi!

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Since when was Alvin Gentry Steve Kerr's assistant? :lol
Affirmative Action

[DPG21920]

Watching the Spurs clear out and run iso for Kawhi is strange.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard in the post leads to good things more times than not.

[313]

Green on one of his usual cold streaks.

[DapDaGenius]

Ka y drawn da fawls lik yeh

[r0drig0lac]

kawhi just always doing the right thing

[cjw]

Since when was Alvin Gentry Steve Kerr's assistant? :lol

I was laughing when I saw Mike Woodson on Doc's bench last night. Always funny to see which recently canned coaches make it back to another team's staff.

[heyheymymy]

baynes looked pretty polished in his early mins

[TheGreatYacht]

Meh, Green was struggling like this to start last season. Just needs to bring the goods in the playoffs.
There won't be no playoffs if this bum and Bonner go 1/23 every game, they might as well be 22 turnovers

[spursparker9]

heard that Danny jammed his fingers on his non-shooting hand a couple of games back

[Spurs 4 The Win]

heard that Danny jammed his fingers on his non-shooting hand a couple of games back

I think he needs a visit from a whambulance

[Uriel]

Steve Kerr looks old as fuck, tbh. The guy isn't even 50 yet.

[$pursDynasty]

at least Danny can steal play D when his shot isn't falling why is Pop putting Bonner on the W's hottest player. The Red Mamba isn't hitting his shot and is a liability on defense.

[RD2191]

Green

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Green is in Cleveland Form

[Uriel]

heard that Danny jammed his fingers on his non-shooting hand a couple of games back
Link?

[spursparker9]

nice D by bonner

[spursparker9]

I wish there was help for Leonard and Tim...

[RD2191]

Kawhi telling cojo to gt fo

[MI21]

Link?

Trying to block a shot on a fast break against Atlanta, tbh

It was just a cut I thought, he wasn't out there for the final defensive possession for that game though... but that could just be Pop being Pop and putting out weird defensive lineups.

[Uriel]

CoJo shitting on SpursTalk. :lol

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Verde and Parker have been god awful the last few games

Ah, yeah, I remember that. But I haven't seen any official reports on a Green injury, so I'm guessing this is all just speculation at this point.

[testies]

Why do we still run Duncan ISO against elite defenders? Its stupid and never works

[beirmeistr]

Got to like yhe ball movement

[DAF86]

I wish there was help for Leonard and Tim...

Manu is playing pretty well, tbh.

[RD2191]

Bonner

[Uriel]

I'm surprised Pop is trying to push the pace of this game. And that it's working.

[RD2191]

Manu wtf

[Spurs 4 The Win]

HUGE

[ElNono]

mvparker

[timtonymanu]

Parker needs to keep working on that 3 point shot.

[Uriel]

MVParker silencing the Oakland crowd.

[DapDaGenius]

Is it impossible for us to not fall for pump fakes?

[ElNono]

we need to hit 3s...

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Tim is actually playing pretty shitty

[ElNono]

good steal

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Tim is actually playing pretty shitty

Duncan shitting on you :lol

[ElNono]

defense has been great

[Uriel]

Got damn, Spurs looking like the reigning world champs. :wow

[RD2191]

Nice

[024]

If Green and Bonner just hit their 3's, the game would be a blowout

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Whats funny is we are at 70% right now and we are still hanging with the so called contenders of the West on the road

[ElNono]

Only 3 turnovers (1 TP, 2 Diaw)... keep it that way, plz

[DPG21920]

Haven't really looked at the early advanced stats, but from an eyeball test perspective I'm pretty happy with how Cojo has played. He still has the moments where he's indecisive and that's when he looks like a d-leaguer, but other than that he looks solid.

[Brunodf]

Spurs played some good D in the 2nd quarter

[DAF86]

That yellow shit at the back of the shirt is because the Spurs are the defending champion or what is that for?

[RD2191]

Amazing how good they look when they aren't turning it over 20 times a game. And really Parker? Already putting the moves on Becky.

[beirmeistr]

He is 38, played 30 min last night

[Robz4000]

Corey is the Spurs' best PG tonight. If not for Manu he'd be the best guard.

[DPG21920]

That yellow shit at the back of the shirt is because the Spurs are the defending champion or what is that for?

Any team that has won a title has it.

I agree. The main issue I am seeing is the inability to hit open 3's.

I have been surprised by his ability to get into and finish in the lane.

[RD2191]

That yellow shit at the back of the shirt is because the Spurs are the defending champion or what is that for?
All franchises that have won a title have them.

it says 5x (champions). All teams that rang have it

[siraulo23]

Got damn, Spurs looking like the reigning world champs. :wow

not even close, but the offensive motion is there with a few plays for leonard called here and there, definitely 10x better already than the game vs the clips

pop's challenge is to incorporate leonard into the offense without disrupting the system offense too much

[testies]

When we have Diaw and Ginobili on the floor, we are a whole different animal

Duncan and Parker are so irrelevant comparatively... If we have Diaw/Gino, we can have Leonard/Beli/Mills/Joseph/Tiago/Baynes or any combination that we still are great

[milkyway21]

Halftime 50-44 Spurs

TP 10 pts.
Kawhi 9 pts
Manu 7 pts

Gotta be happy that we're up 6 here with 4 out of the 5 starters playing like shit. Hopefully some 3s start falling in the 2nd half and we keep up the good D.

[spursparker9]

http://www.si.com/nba/2014/07/16/nba-jerseys-gold-collar-patch-adidas
