Spurs vs. Pelicans: Game Thread 12/31/14

[FaM0us Skins]

:flag:

[apalisoc_9]

No leonard..

I'm expecting another L.

The spurs will fall 9th in the standings and that's when Kawhi will return and get carry the team..

Pop is probably gunning for that narrative.

It's obvious kawhi wants to play and he thinks he can.

[ElNono]

:flag:

[r0drig0lac]

GO SPURS GO

[Malik Hairston]

Not sure how to feel about this one, tbh..

Pelicans are very mediocre, but keep playing well vs. the Spurs..Vegas keeps over-valuing the Spurs, but 5 point favorite must mean something..

[Robz4000]

Pelicans in another close one, unless MVPatty finds his stroke.

[apalisoc_9]

Without Leonard..Pels by 9.

[Brunodf]

Pelicans by 30

[Nathan89]

19-14 ugh

[Nathan89]

Belinelli spot taken:lol

[r0drig0lac]

KA starter again

[Blizzardwizard]

Just hit 2015 here, and what else would I rather be doing than staying inside, watching a dodgy stream of a Spurs vs Pelicans game. God Damnit. Fuckers better win.

[01Snake]

UGLY!!

[FaM0us Skins]

It's going to be a low scoring game

[r0drig0lac]

#TankForOkafor

[moisaenz]

Spurs playing decent D but horrible offense.

[TheGreatYacht]

Kyle Anderson should've gone undrafted, tbh

[Nathan89]

This is pathetic basketball

[jyra]

More turnovers than points..

[Perry Mason]

How did the team go from one of the best shooting teams in the NBA with the highest eFG%, to one of the worst?

We need the guy that gets all the attention, Mr. Parker.

[TE]

This is just bad basketball. On that last possession Cory took too long to run loop. Too late into the shot clock and it doesn't help that Duncan didn't come out to pick Cory's defender. Cannot be indecisive like that.

[moisaenz]

tasmanian devil is free

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Green-led pick and rolls are utterly useless. When the other team knows that he's going to dribble once into the paint and pass back out to a popping Duncan, it completely defeats the purpose of a pick and roll. The opposing team has to think that you're a threat to score on the drive for the pick and roll to work.

[Hoops Czar]

CoJo has no idea how to run an offense. He's pathetic!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

How did the team go from one of the best shooting teams in the NBA with the highest eFG%, to one of the worst?

Look at the starting lineup tonight :lol

[TE]

Stop turning the fucking ball over. Either make a move to the basketball, drive and kick or layup.

[moisaenz]

tiago .....

[jeebus]

Spurs are playing like a team that has Cory Joseph as their starting PG

[moisaenz]

patty playing like a point guard..

[Harry Callahan]

Five TOs in six minutes? This is dreadful basketball.

[TE]

Great defense.

[TE]

More TO's

[TE]

Alittle hoomcooking but we'll take it

[01Snake]

Ferrari gonna save the day.

[Budkin]

The amount this team is turning the ball over is just killing me.

[moisaenz]

lol if bellinelli steals the ball from you

[TE]

Fuck cmon Patty.

[Harry Callahan]

Last years bench guys are now on the floor. Get it going....

[Perry Mason]

We could use Mills' shot now. Hope it comes back soon.

[TE]

The amount this team is turning the ball over is just killing me.
I'm pregaming for New Year's eve and this team is gonna kill my liver

[jeebus]

Fuck cmon Patty.
I don't mind the misses his first week or so back. He just needs to keep shooting to get his rhythm back.

[Robz4000]

:lol Man, Patty's shot is bad right now...

[milkyway21]

HAPPY NEW YEAR SPURSTALK !!! :D

:flag: :flag: :flag:

[moisaenz]

Mills needs to get his touch

[r0drig0lac]

wow 10-8 this is real life?

[TE]

I don't mind the misses his first week or so back. He just needs to keep shooting to get his rhythm back.
Neither do I. We know what he's capable of doing once on a roll.

[TE]

Damn jeebus 16,000 posts? I remember when me and you started posting here around the same time :cry

[Amuseddaysleeper]

8 points with just 3 minutes left in the first :lol

[milkyway21]

Boris Diaw for the tie :tu

[FaM0us Skins]

Tiagooo

[jeebus]

Damn jeebus (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=22786) 16,000 posts? I remember when me and you started posting here around the same time :cry
damn game threads really made it go up fast, especially in the NFL forum. though, I didn't post as much this year. it's been a little over 4 years, I think...

[timtonymanu]

Pop with his 2k lineup change

[01Snake]

Dat no call lol

[FaM0us Skins]

Good shot by Patty.

[timtonymanu]

Patty finally

[jeebus]

My nigga Patty

[r0drig0lac]

Tiago carrying these scrubs TBH

[TE]

The Spurs look like they're playing in a pick up game.

[milkyway21]

:cheer

Manu to T to Patty !!!!!! :cheer

[SupremeGuy]

Pop with his 2k lineup changeI said the same thing the last time he did this shit :lol

[Nathan89]

He's back!!

[TE]

LMAO Asik was clobbered on the other end.

[PingPong]

Finally, Patty!

The Frogging quartet & fagnelli.

[SupremeGuy]

Fuck, I can't wait for Kawhi to get back :cry

I hate the lack of information.

[Budkin]

Once Patty has some consistency all will be well!

[SupremeGuy]

I've noticed another big reason our offense can't get going is because Tim isn't shooting his 15 footer that much this year. Teams aren't respecting it and it's making it harder to drive and dish.

[SupremeGuy]

KA has moves, tbh. Work on his quickness and shot a little and he's going to be pretty good.

[milkyway21]

Kyle Anderson giving us quality minutes lately

[milkyway21]

That was a good AK1 pass Timmy :( :)

[SupremeGuy]

Are Kawhi and Tony even there? I haven't seen them but I wasn't watching earlier. Did they show them?

[PingPong]

KA has the weirdest style I've ever seen. But the kid will be good two years from now.

[Nathan89]

Davis inability to Shit on bonner:lol

[TDfan2007]

This starting unit is just painful to watch. Timmy is obviously running on reserve fuel right now.

[FaM0us Skins]

Let's go Spurs

[TE]

This starting unit is just painful to watch. Timmy is obviously running on reserve fuel right now.
Timmy is coasting...

[SupremeGuy]

Why doesn't Pop play Baynes anymore?

[milkyway21]

Another record for Duncan :clap:

LEGEND :worthy:

[SupremeGuy]

KA has the weirdest style I've ever seen. But the kid will be good two years from now.It kind of reminds me of Harden, minus the athleticism. lol

[r0drig0lac]

lol

[Hoops Czar]

There's no excuses for missed free throws. This is beyond pathetic.

[SupremeGuy]

Tim trying to draw a foul on Davis lol and then finally gets it a few seconds later

[milkyway21]

Duncan & Davis :lmao blooper

[SupremeGuy]

There's no excuses for missed free throws. This is beyond pathetic.:lol

[FaM0us Skins]

Ginobili!

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Manu feeling it :toast

[SupremeGuy]

Man, we really need our starters back so our second unit can go back to dominating other teams' second unit.

[Sean Cagney]

No leonard..

I'm expecting another L.

The spurs will fall 9th in the standings and that's when Kawhi will return and get carry the team..

Pop is probably gunning for that narrative.

It's obvious kawhi wants to play and he thinks he can.
Yep, back to back as well. This is another loss in the making. I won't let it ruin my New Years though, no way.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

3 3 3

[SupremeGuy]

Fucking Manu. :wow

[r0drig0lac]

manuuuuuuuuuuu

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Keep feeding it to Manu. He's got the touch right now

[TE]

Manu is feeling it

[PingPong]

Manu doing his favorite hobby: shitting on ST.

[TE]

More missed free throws. This team is doing it on purpose.

[SupremeGuy]

Wow, the bounces are actually going our way right now.

[SupremeGuy]

Manu going HARD for boards...

It's making a huge difference.

[SupremeGuy]

Dammit Bel!

[TE]

Dreadful basketball

[SupremeGuy]

FUCK FUCK FUCK

[01Snake]

Splitter, come on man.

[timtonymanu]

Splitter, you can finish that. Come on.

[SupremeGuy]

Seriously though why isn't Baynes getting any PT lately?

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

:bang:bang:bang

[r0drig0lac]

depressing, that's just too ugly

[TE]

Monty Williams calls a timeout for us to massage the eye sores quickly developing by viewers.

[AussieFanKurt]

Fuck splitter is one soft cunt

[Robz4000]

Both teams missing bunnies...

[SupremeGuy]

What a fucking injury filled year, tbh. From Tiago and Patty missing half of the year, to TP and Kawhi missing a bunch of time. All things considered, it's amazing we're still the 8th seed. lol And we fucking gave away a few games too.

[SupremeGuy]

Even Danny doesn't look like he's really going hard on defense... that's not good. Team is losing interest.

[SupremeGuy]

Dammit, would have been nice.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Good first half finish

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Tim is setting some awful (non) screens lately. Like there's literally 0 body contact.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

What a fucking injury filled year, tbh. From Tiago and Patty missing half of the year, to TP and Kawhi missing a bunch of time. All things considered, it's amazing we're still the 8th seed. lol And we fucking gave away a few games too.
Spurs should be able to edge up into the 5th or 4th seed if they can actually get consistent with winning games.

[Robz4000]

Green and Duncan are clearly gassed. If they pull this one out tonight I'd sit Duncan, Manu, and Green against the Wizso they get a week off.

[Malik Hairston]

This is the least energy I have seen Anthony Davis play with this year, tbh..both teams look dead and playing with no energy, ugly-ass game..

[apalisoc_9]

Man, Ryan anderson is a huge ballhog. :lol

[Cloud786]

belli +15 :wow

[DarrinS]

This is the least energy I have seen Anthony Davis play with this year, tbh..both teams look dead and playing with no energy, ugly-ass game..

New Year's Eve, tbh

[apalisoc_9]

Anderson and Evans are addition by subtraction players, tbh.

[Malik Hairston]

New Year's Eve, tbh

Yep + the early start time..

[100%duncan]

Green is streaky as hell but I still ove dat nigga

[SupremeGuy]

Spurs should be able to edge up into the 5th or 4th seed if they can actually get consistent with winning games.Yeah, I know, but I'm just getting antsy for our team to get healthy. lol It's annoying seeing teams get their little dicks happy after beating an injury-plagued Spurs team.

[Hoops Czar]

Anderson and Evans are addition by subtraction players, tbh.

You mean anti-Leonards.

[SupremeGuy]

Green is streaky as hell but I still ove dat niggaNah, I think he's become consistent enough to leave that moniker behind.

[100%duncan]

Nah, I think he's become consistent enough to leave that moniker behind.

As long as he Ds up I aint eveb mad tbh

[apalisoc_9]

Must be hard for Davis. I know he's not playing with energyy today, but playing with ballhogs is frustrating.

[TDfan2007]

Doesn't feel like Davis or Timmy are even playing. Danny isn't his usual self either. Fuck it, though. I just want a win.

[PingPong]

Stupid schedule... now is 11:15 pm in Brazil and Argentina. Splitter and Manu will be playing at the new years eve. and their families will be celebrating the new year.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

beautiful

[FaM0us Skins]

Bonner!

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

:lol

[r0drig0lac]

wow bonner

[Blizzardwizard]

[moisaenz]

New years eve game...

[TE]

[FaM0us Skins]

Awesome, awesome bounce pass from Tiago through lane to the cutting Belinelli on other side of the rim. Such underrated vision.

[100%duncan]

[Robz4000]

Didn't realize Ryan Anderson was Dominos Durant...

[milkyway21]

[Nathan89]

Joseph missing layups tonight.

[01Snake]

This damn December can't get over soon enough!

[r0drig0lac]

even scrub jimmer ....

[Texas_Ranger]

another pathetic game by the Spurs... nothing new.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Spurs please don't blow this, my god

[Robz4000]

Pelicans are about to sleepwalk to a win on the Spurs' home floor. New low imo.

[Nathan89]

What time is it in San Antonio?

We welcome our 2015 9 hrs ago :D7:42

[RD2191]

Nice lil run

[SupremeGuy]

Went outside to smoke and then I took a shit, how are we doing?

Quick question: Is Kawhi's booboo on his shooting hand?

[RD2191]

[RD2191]

Damn.

[SupremeGuy]

Sup vato? Getting buckwild in Mcallen?You know it! lol We were going to go downtown but scratched that idea, the weather is too fucking shitty. I'm going to a party with my girl and her friends. I hope the Spurs win so I'm not in a shitty mood. lol

[SupremeGuy]

Fuck, Tim needs to go back to shooting that shot.m

[SupremeGuy]

LMAO fuck we just can't catch a break :cry

[100%duncan]

Pop is still fkn around. Playing 2 separatenline ups and not mixing the best together. Motherfucker.

[timtonymanu]

:lol Joseph
:lol god awful defender these days

[moisaenz]

First to bonus wins

[RD2191]

You know it! lol We were going to go downtown but scratched that idea, the weather is too fucking shitty. I'm going to a party with my girl and her friends. I hope the Spurs win so I'm not in a shitty mood. lol
Yeah, the weather fucked up alot of plans. We need a win. Start the year off right.:lol

[Bartleby]

I keep waiting for the Spurs to pull away but NO is still hanging around. No more OT games this year, please.

[SupremeGuy]

Hey they finally showed TP and Kawhi! I wonder how pissed they get watching this team play without them...

[100%duncan]

Wow letting a dcrub lile fraggot

[SupremeGuy]

Bonner plz :cry

[RD2191]

Is that Larry Bird out there?

[timtonymanu]

Fuck this.

[Blizzardwizard]

Fredette :lol

The ultimate flukey scrub :lol

[SupremeGuy]

Ugh, we need some energy. Throw in Patty and Baynes.

[SupremeGuy]

I'm actually surprised that asshole didn't make it :cry

[01Snake]

We're fucking garbage.

[timtonymanu]

Hey they finally showed TP and Kawhi! I wonder how pissed they get watching this team play without them...

Pop: I know we're the 9th seed but I think these guys need another game out.

[RD2191]

Darius Bieber was right.:depressed

[SupremeGuy]

We just can't pull away without a full team, fuck.

Kawhi should wear a Jedi coat for his introductions first game back. lol

[tholdren]

Bonner is a shit face.

[Darius Bieber]

Pelicans playing like absolute shit and still beating the Spurs. Absolutely pathetic. This game is over.

[703 Spurz]

Jimmer Faggette has scored more points in this game than any all year. He's also never made 4 baskets in a game until tonight.

The Spurs fucking suck.

[SupremeGuy]

Pop: I know we're the 9th seed but I think these guys need another game out.It's really annoying since we've heard that TP's injury isn't that bad and apparently Kawhi is telling people that he wants to play.

[Darius Bieber]

Darius Bieber was right.:depressed

Hows it going homie? Having a good New Year's Eve?

[01Snake]

Danny going into a slump.

[703 Spurz]

Danny Green continuing to miss shot after shot

[TE]

This is depressing

[timtonymanu]

make a shot, pussies

[TE]

Pop: I know we're the 9th seed but I think these guys need another game out.
CIA Pop

[100%duncan]

This is patheti

[SupremeGuy]

LMAO goddam Spurs what the fuck

[703 Spurz]

37% shooting and these queers lead by 3. Awesome.

[SupremeGuy]

And I've lost faith in the injured Spurs winning close games... so I might as well start getting trashed now. :cry

[Blizzardwizard]

That chuck would make Westbrook proud.

[RD2191]

Hows it going homie? Having a good New Year's Eve?
Not too bad. Been taking it easy. Just watching the game. Weather is toops shitty to do anything. How's yours going?

[moisaenz]

Pop trying to win game last three minutes

[TE]

This fucking blows. Thank god I stopped giving a shit about regular season basketball when it seemed obvious Pop didn't give a fuck about winning every other game.

[milkyway21]

Lol@ Manu haters :D

[TE]

And I've lost faith in the injured Spurs winning close games... so I might as well start getting trashed now. :cry
I have a head start on you

[100%duncan]

They should really not 4 down with a tired team
Motherfuck

[moisaenz]

Hopefully patty gets some range

[RD2191]

Relax, fellas. This is nothing compared to what it's going to be like once Tim and Manu leave.

[TE]

Not too bad. Been taking it easy. Just watching the game. Weather is toops shitty to do anything. How's yours going?
No kidding. We can't even pop fireworks like rowdy drunk Mexicans :cry

[Brunodf]

Time for MVPatty score some points

[Blizzardwizard]

Relax, fellas. This is nothing compared to what it's going to be like once Tim and Manu leave.

Patty Ginobili

[moisaenz]

Mills doing his thing

[TE]

Asshats here shoot rounds up in the air. Can't even feel safe outside.:lol
I forgot you're in La Villa :lmao

[Darius Bieber]

Not too bad. Been taking it easy. Just watching the game. Weather is toops shitty to do anything. How's yours going?

Same here. Bunch of fire works but nobody here wants to go outside. Pretty shitty, so we're just watching the Spurs.

[timtonymanu]

Relax, fellas. This is nothing compared to what it's going to be like once Tim and Manu leave.

Feels more like how it's gonna be when Kawhimvp leaves. :cry

[703 Spurz]

The bald fuck made both of them. Who knew?

[Robz4000]

Great...

[100%duncan]

Green cant shoot sad

[RD2191]

I forgot you're in La Villa :lmao
Yeah man. Couple more months and I'm getting the fuck out of here.:lol

[timtonymanu]

Danny is fucking gassed.

[RD2191]

Feels more like how it's gonna be when Kawhimvp leaves. :cry
Shutup. Just shutup.:depressed

[Blizzardwizard]

Good god :lol

[100%duncan]

Goddamnit

[timtonymanu]

Giving away another game again. Same script.

[RD2191]

Same here. Bunch of fire works but nobody here wants to go outside. Pretty shitty, so we're just watching the Spurs.
You in south texas?

[703 Spurz]

Relax, fellas. This is nothing compared to what it's going to be like once Tim and Manu leave.

The good thing about that is my expectations for success will be gone when Tim and Manu retire. They're still here and this is still a championship team.

[RD2191]

Oh come on man.

[TE]

Welp. Another one possession loss. Another game that should've been won.

[AussieFanKurt]

nice possesion manu

[TE]

Giving away another game again. Same script.
This team is flirting with failure.

[100%duncan]

And they have a 2 for 1 good lord

[timtonymanu]

Davis/Evans/Tom Rivers Jr will make the game winner.

[daslicer]

Just going by odds since the spurs have lost a ton of these close games I'm going to say they will win this game.

[Robz4000]

Missed freebies telling the story again...

[SupremeGuy]

I have a head start on youIt's a marathon, not a sprint tonight. lol

:cry Spurs pls :cry

[Nathan89]

Woman security behind refs is annoying. She isn't protecting Shit.

[100%duncan]

Lmfao refs

[TE]

Yeah that's a foul. It shouldn't come down to that. Fuck.

[Blizzardwizard]

Green flatout blows.

[SupremeGuy]

With our luck, Timmy just broke Verde's hand. :cry

[tholdren]

Fuck Danny green

[703 Spurz]

Green with as many fouls as shots made. Terrific.

[RD2191]

Serious, will the Spurs make the playoffs?

[daslicer]

Spurs will win this game on a 3.

[TE]

Losing sucks

[SupremeGuy]

Kawhi with his phone in his hand lol nigga if you can text, you can play :cry
