Game Thread: Spurs @ Paper Clips 7:30 p.m. PST on TNT

[itzsoweezee]

uh, how is that a foul on Duncan?

[timtonymanu]

Miami gave up nothing, OKC got rid of a locker room cancer, and the blazers gave up nothing.

Reggie Jackson is still a more talented player than whatever scrubs we have on our team. Miami gave up pretty much half their roster for Dragic. I'll give you the Blazers, but TRob and Barton are still young players.

[RD2191]

how was that a foul on tim?

[spursparker9]

Should be offensive foul

[crc21209]

So it's Tim's fault that this idiot almost killed himself on that attempt huh? Stupid..

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!

[SpurPadre]

Rely on our senior citizens to carry us to the playoffs
Yep we're gonna have to and Kawhi needs to find that magic again.

[look_at_g_shred]

TP :tu

[spursparker9]

Nice enquire

[loveforthegame]

Pop. :lol

[milkyway21]

Shit that dunk over Duncan might injure TD

[RD2191]

Pop is a dick:lol

[ElNono]

great pace to this game... helps our older guys :tu

[BatManu20]

We're going to be in foul trouble by the end of the 3rd at this rate

[look_at_g_shred]

Clips fan should be booing how bad this nigg is at the line :lol

[itzsoweezee]

I thought you couldn't intentionally foul within two minutes of the end of the half?

[TDfan2007]

Tony is playing really well tonight.

[NASpurs]

:lmao missed both

[Spurs 4 The Win]

WE HAVE ZERO FREE THROWS, FUCKING RIGGED

[BatManu20]

MVParker

[Ditty]

Tony is tearing shit up!

[RD2191]

nice aggressive tp

[hater]

MVP! MVP! MVPARKER!

[100%duncan]

MVParker....

[spursparker9]

Splitting da double team

[TheGreatYacht]

Short bus is salttttttttttttttyyyy :lol

[bklynspursfan]

Tony looking good.

[NASpurs]

[hater]

:lmao Cock rivers :lol

[timtonymanu]

Tony doesn't look as shitty as he did against Toronto and Indiana. Promising, but I need to see more before I believe he's at least going to contribute this season.

[ElNono]

MVParker showing DJ how to shoot dem freebies

[look_at_g_shred]

Manu :tu

[spursparker9]

Tony looks gassed already tbh

[Cry Havoc]

Tony Parker looking like his old self for once.

[100%duncan]

Diaws defense wow

[BatManu20]

Smh Manu

[RD2191]

lol manu

[loveforthegame]

Manus pass at Timmys ankles. :lol

[NASpurs]

Timmy doing the splits, scary

[RD2191]

:lmao

[timtonymanu]

Oh look, blowing another lead.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

REFS ARE FUCKING US

[RD2191]

All that for nothing

[100%duncan]

Shitty game

[daslicer]

Hawes is a clumsy mothafucker.

[ElNono]

be careful timmy...

[itzsoweezee]

These refs fucking suck.

[BatManu20]

Chris Paul is flopping like crazy out there

[Godbama]

Is Tony looking better though?

[crc21209]

This reffing is inconsistent as fuck. Tony or Manu get bumped off a screen, nothing. Paul gets a little contact off a screen, and its a foul..

[SpurPadre]

They didn't. They're the defending champs. Same team that had that amazing run last year

That's what we have to hope for, but this is a different year with older players and 7th seed. A trade shouldn't have been out of the question. Oh well, well see what happens.

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy slam!!!!

[BatManu20]

Eat it DeAndre

[loveforthegame]

Timmy!!

[ElNono]

thats how you dunk DJ

[NASpurs]

Timmy Hulk Smash

[100%duncan]

Duncan carrying scrubs since '98

[Cry Havoc]

This is officially the most biased reffing game of the fucking season.

[FkLA]

six point lead gone in like 30 seconds smh

[ElNono]

if DJ is in there, hack him

[crc21209]

Timmmyyyy!

[hater]

:wow Parker saved that Evita TO and turned it into a Duncan facial :wow

genius

[HI-FI]

we're not worthy.

[look_at_g_shred]

Wow Timmy fucking duncan

[spursparker9]

Duncan carrying scrubs since '98

You forgot about 2009,2010,2011

[Johnny RIngo]

nice TD

[crc21209]

This is officially the most biased reffing game of the fucking season.

No shit..

[timtonymanu]

We got the lead, which is all you can ask for.

Just need guys to get their heads out of their asses and we should win this comfortably.

[NASpurs]

3 point lead while playing like shit, sure I'll take it.

[TheGoldStandard]

Timmy with the facial http://i58.tinypic.com/kf2k2v.jpg

[milkyway21]

Best game from Parker since his return

15 pts 6 assts NO turnover


banged up Duncan :(

[itzsoweezee]

Parker looking great. Now just need Kawhi to get on track.

[ElNono]

it's been a putrid half for those not named TD, TP, Marco and Baynes, tbh.... hopefully one or two more guys show up in the 2nd half

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Refs are fighting hard for the clippers, this is unfuckingbelievable

[look_at_g_shred]

it's been a putrid half for those not named TD, TP, Marco and Baynes, tbh.... hopefully one or two more guys show up in the 2nd half
Green is 1/1

[phxspurfan]

Spurs lucky to have a HOF coach who isn't too proud to hack a Jordan. Otherwise they'd be down by 7

[look_at_g_shred]

Best game from Parker since his return

15 pts 6 assets NO turnover


banged up Duncan
Banged up?

[TheGreatYacht]

Is Tony looking better though?
:lmao rest in piss, Short bus. Tbqh

[pgardn]

Is Tony looking better though?

Its hard to tell as most of this game is watching the Clippers miss FTs.

This is really an awful game. We have seen more commercials than actual basketball.

[Cry Havoc]

Spurs up 3 despite the refs doing everything they can to hand this game to the Clips. They aren't even trying to fucking hide it. I hope someone goes Breaking Bad on their car while they're calling this game.

[ElNono]

Green is 1/1

Yeah, but he had a few defensive miscues and well... he only took 1 shot... Manu also took just 2 shots...

we're not finding them and we're not scoring...

[hater]

Parker looking great. Now just need Kawhi to get on track.

cosign

[Fireball]

the ageless one ... really :wow

and I do not understand Doc .. why take DJ out after the Spurs had the first foul under two minutes?

[TDfan2007]

Defense has been atrocious. Nobody seems to know what they're doing while defending the pnr. On the plus side Timmy and Tony look great.

[SpurPadre]

Ugly half but great to see TP looking more like himself.

[Pound the rock]

Glad we're up at the half

[moisaenz]

Not changing the rules about hackajordan is the only sane thing Miller has said

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Spurs up 3 despite the refs doing everything they can to hand this game to the Clips. They aren't even trying to fucking hide it. I hope someone goes Breaking Bad on their car while they're calling this game.

This, something is up, these refs have an agenda tonight, its beyond just poor officiating

[hater]

TONY PARKER!!!!!!! - Barkley

[spurraider21]

Parker looks spry as ever :tu

Duncan's hammer to close the half was awesome


Kiwi/Bobo/Manu have underwhelmed. Patty was invisible

[SpursFan86]

Very lucky to be up after that half. We need to come out stronger in the 2nd. Hopefully Kawhi can hit a shot.

[bklynspursfan]

That's what we have to hope for, but this is a different year with older players and 7th seed. A trade shouldn't have been out of the question. Oh well, well see what happens.

I mean, we are just getting our team back from a "variety of maladies" I think they'll turn it around. 24-5 last year post all star break. Not expecting that, but definitely better than what they were. It'd be unfair to judge them on the first half of a game after having 7 days off of competitive basketball.

[FkLA]

What's up with over emotional faggots blaming it on the refs? The Spurs just look uninspired, like they have for the past 1-2 months.

[spurraider21]

:lmao terrible queen "tribute" halftime show

[hater]

What's up with over emotional faggots blaming it on the refs? The Spurs just look uninspired, like they have for the past 1-2 months.

:lol uninspired. Duncan + Parker brought it. Evita + Kawhi are 2-12 :lol

[Fireball]

obviously Baynes rode Splitter during the rodeo to solidify his starting spot ...

[cjw]

despite the refs doing everything they can

Hawes was tackling people on several possessions with nothing being called. Baynes and Duncan both. Not to mention CP3 with a faux and one (+1) and the travel backing into the basket on a dish off (+2).

[FkLA]

:lol uninspired. Duncan + Parker brought it. Evita + Kawhi are 2-12 :lol

Exactly, shortbus. It's been one or two guys carrying the load for the past two months. Rarely have we seen complete team efforts.

[spurs10]

Refs are fighting hard for the clippers, this is unfuckingbelievable That's why Pop is hacking. If they are going to put us in foul trouble just keep putting Jordan on the line.

[BillMc]

Our team has the lead on the road against a good team. Our standards are so high that some are disappointed? Kawhi has a normal night and we've got a 10 point lead at halftime.

[hater]

Exactly, shortbus. It's been one or two guys carrying the load for the past two months. Rarely have we seen complete team efforts.

tonight you can't call the "team" being uninspired. When Duncan + Parker are having probably their best games of the season. and Kawhi and evita their worst.

you call it how you see it. Kawhi and Evita are shitting the bed tonight.

[Darius Bieber]

struggling against Clips without their best player lol

[spurs10]

Need to come out with a kick butt attitude!

[moisaenz]

Haha Durant is half alpha

[SpurPadre]

Barkley with his obligatory "Spurs are too old" Shit that Shaq and EJ clearly think is stupid, lol.

[hater]

LOL spurs have 2 FT vs 24 in the Clips. I know hack a Jordan but still :lol

[Darius Bieber]

Barkley with his obligatory "Spurs are too old" Shit that Shaq and EJ clearly think is stupid, lol.

To his defense, though, the Spurs have played all season like they are too old.

[moisaenz]

Barkley with his obligatory "Spurs are too old" Shit that Shaq and EJ clearly think is stupid, lol.

He is been saying that for 8 yeara

[pgardn]

Our team has the lead on the road against a good team. Our standards are so high that some are disappointed? Kawhi has a normal night and we've got a 10 point lead at halftime.

I like winning.

Its just that no one would watch the Spurs if they won like this. It's good to win, but it's really hard to watch. This game is a rythmless mess imo. Just sayin...

[FkLA]

tonight you can't call the "team" being uninspired. When Duncan + Parker are having probably their best games of the season. and Kawhi and evita their worst.

you call it how you see it. Kawhi and Evita are shitting the bed tonight.

One or two guys bringing it isn't an inspired team, shortbus.

Either way it's not the refs fault everyone outside of Timmy/Rique are shitting the bed.

[spurs10]

Barkley with his obligatory "Spurs are too old" Shit that Shaq and EJ clearly think is stupid, lol.
Easy call....they are old, but it ain't over yet!!

[pgardn]

He is been saying that for 8 yeara

I think Sir Charles picked the opposition in every playoff series we had last year.
This TV gig, it's gambling money for Barkley.

[MI21]

- Not to worried about the 1-10 for Kawhi, bad nights happen, but some of the shots he was taking were complete forces, Westbrook style. Gotta stop that shit, though could be Pop's direction.

- Parker looks great, hopefully he can keep it up. Amazing what a difference actually making his layups makes.

- Not understanding why Marco has more minutes than Green. Haven't seen a Timmy post up yet, wouldn't mind throwing that wrinkle in there whenever Hawes is guarding him.

- Boris is looking awful, that's the most worrying part of the season for me at this stage

- Defense has been pretty bad, have to make the Clippers do something they don't want to do, at the moment they are taking what they want

- :lol DeAndre Jordan

[DarrinS]

tonight you can't call the "team" being uninspired. When Duncan + Parker are having probably their best games of the season. and Kawhi and evita their worst.

you call it how you see it. Kawhi and Evita are shitting the bed tonight.

Manu has only played about 9 min and taken two shots, but he's shitting the bed?

[BillMc]

I like winning.

Its just that no one would watch the Spurs if they won like this. It's good to win, but it's really hard to watch. This game is a rythmless mess imo. Just sayin...

Yes, I'm really missing last year's offense too, the "beautiful game" too. But there's still time. :toast

[hater]

One or two guys bringing it isn't an inspired team, shortbus.

Either way it's not the refs fault everyone outside of Timmy/Rique are shitting the bed.

2, guys havng their worst game of the season is not uninspired team shot bus. It's 2 guys shitting the bed

[SpurPadre]

To his defense, though, the Spurs have played all season like they are too old.

True but he needs to give it a rest because it's a broken record. The guy is clearly an inarticulate moron who's grossly overpaid for what he does. Have you heard the stupid non-basketball stuff he's been saying in news outlets?

[RD2191]

Baynes

[loveforthegame]

Baynes. :tu

[TXstbobcat]

Baynes slam!!!

[MI21]

Will Kawhi ever actually go hard to the rim in the half court ever again? :(

[ElNono]

Manu has only played about 9 min and taken two shots, but he's shitting the bed?

shhh... he's getting it off his chest....

[RD2191]

Fuck

[loveforthegame]

Butterfingers Green.

[RD2191]

shhh... he's getting it off his chest....
The shit?

[FkLA]

dribble dribble dribble dribble

[ElNono]

The shit?

you can characterize it anyway you want, tbh

[RD2191]

:lol

[ace3g]

#baynesdunkcount

[TXstbobcat]

Parker to Baynes!!!

[loveforthegame]

Baynes smooth.

[ElNono]

Baynes playing inspired ball

[TheGoldStandard]

Tony Freaking Parker showing up

[NASpurs]

Good to see Baynes not fag it up like Splitter with soft layups.

[SpurPadre]

Baynes, the anti-soft Splitter.

[RD2191]

Good to see Baynes not fag it up like Splitter with soft layups.

[NASpurs]

Baynes making things happen :tu

[james evans]

wtf has gotten into parker? did the trade deadline scare the hell out of him? he's fighting thru screenes, he's driving and kicking to the open man under the basket, he's not forcing shots... wtf!!! this is the parker we all like. THIS IS HOW WE WANT HIM TO PLAY!!!

[ElNono]

Much better than the 1st quarter... ball movement, good finishes at the rim, getting to the line... less 3 point shots :tu

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!!

[RD2191]

Parker killing it. Good to see.

[beirmeistr]

best I've seen tp play this season.

[TheGoldStandard]

Hey, when Did Parker show up?? Good to see him back.

[timtonymanu]

Enrique has been nice tonight, I'll give him that.

[ElNono]

great start to the half... everything looks perfect, except Reggie Miller calling the game

[RD2191]

Hit ft Kawhi

[spursparker9]

lol kawhi

[TheGreatYacht]

Kawhi needs to stop asking for the ball...

[TheGoldStandard]

Kawhi needs to learn how to dribble

[hater]

Kawhi being exposed tbh

glad we didn't give him the max :tu

[SpurPadre]

I think Kawhi is just looking ahead to tomorrow's game and thinking about how he's gonna school Thompson.

[TXstbobcat]

Enough of these fucking cliff Paul commercials

[ElNono]

rough game for the future of the franchise

[RD2191]

I think Kawhi is just looking ahead to tomorrow's game and thinking about how he's gonna school Thompson.

[Robz4000]

God damn Leonard, if you weren't playing so shitty this would be a 20 point lead...

[FkLA]

Pippen Jr. is going through his adjustment phase. Non-issue.

[hater]

I think Kawhi is just looking ahead to tomorrow's game and thinking about how he's gonna school Thompson.

:lmao that would be stupid because Pop is resting Duncan tomorrow.

[pgardn]

Paul and Parker made a deal to not play D on each other.
They have negated each other.

The help on both has not been adequate as well.

[Fireball]

did Kawhi run a marathon during the All star break? his legs look mega heavy and he is very slow overall

[cjw]

Baynes, the anti-soft Splitter.

Tiago would have dropped at least half those passes that Baynes finished, and put up weak reverses with the other half. If only Baynes brought the same on the defensive end talent wise.

Time to see what the bench can do.

[ElNono]

Everything is back to normal, tbh.... Tony carrying us in the regular season... hopefully it's here to stay...

[loveforthegame]

I can't wait to see the meltdown when Leonard gets his max this summer. That's going to be some fine entertainment.

[313]

rough game for the future of the franchisehopefully he developes some offensive moves in the offseason

[ElNono]

now we're getting the calls

[milkyway21]

Nice Parker almost double double 19 pts 9 assts already :tu

[ElNono]

hopefully he developes some offensive moves in the offseason

He could while he counts the max money he's gonna be gettin...

[TheGreatYacht]

Everything is back to normal, tbh.... Tony carrying us in the regular season... hopefully it's here to stay...

[NASpurs]

Everything is back to normal, tbh.... Tony carrying us in the regular season... hopefully it's here to stay...

:tu tbh

[Pound the rock]

Fouls starting to even out

[SpurPadre]

:lmao that would be stupid because Pop is resting Duncan tomorrow.

That doesn't mean he won't make Klay his bitch like he usually does.

[FkLA]

The good thing about Kawhi is even when he is 1/10 he's a net positive since he's the best perimeter defender in the league. Wish the same could be said about some of the atrocious defenders on the team tbh.

[RD2191]

Too bad parker chokes in the playoffs. Kawhi shows up when it matters.

[BatManu20]

Our D has been pretty shitty overall all game.

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy and 1

[NASpurs]

Holy shit Parker, that was nice determination.

[ElNono]

would be nice to have a complete 3rd quarter for a change

[cjw]

Please don't foul out, Hawes!

[SpurSwag]

This Tony parker is the difference between us getting deep into the playoffs or not. Perfect balance between scoring and passing, wish he was always like this

[ace3g]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B-Q53CoCYAA_Z7V.jpg:large

[RD2191]

Dunk that shit tim. Wtf man. Fuck.

[NASpurs]

Our defense :lmao :lmao

[loveforthegame]

Leaving Crawford ope.

[BatManu20]

Timmy cheeses it and they splash a 3. Smh 5 point swing

[100%duncan]

Lol

[RD2191]

Rofl choke

[NASpurs]

:lmao Leave everyone open, sure

[RD2191]

Fucking garbage

[ElNono]

would be nice to have a complete 3rd quarter for a change

smdh

[SpursFan86]

And just like that...:lmao

[NASpurs]

These guys don't know whether to switch, stay with their man or who to pick up on the perimeter. Fucking sad.

[KL2]

Baynes looking like he smelled shit or something

[FkLA]

Rique: go 1-on-5 on one end, leave JJ Redick wide open for a three on the other end

[TDfan2007]

Where is the D?

[loveforthegame]

Where is the D?

He went to the bench.

[RD2191]

Lol manu

[NASpurs]

:lol Becky's cleavage hater

[Johnny RIngo]

Clippers making every bullshit shot now

[timtonymanu]

Stop letting this undermanned team hang in the game. smh lazy Spurs.

[ElNono]

fucking Paul hitting from everywhere

[RD2191]

The faggotry is strong with this team right now.

[daslicer]

They are jacking up 3's and they are falling right now such bs.

[NASpurs]

How about you guys communicate on defense and have a game plan whether to switch or not. Jesus

[hater]

:lol where's the future of the Spurs :lol

[TDfan2007]

I don't think I've seen our guys this lost defensively all year...wow.

[SpurPadre]

Clippers making every bullshit shot now

Well, TD did hit a three today...

[Horse]

Bonehead self inflicted bullshit

[TE]

Lol I've never seen a team suffer from an opponent's fluky shooting almost evey night tbh

[ElNono]

You gotta have one of Green or Kawhi with this many shooters

[BatManu20]

Our D has been so bad. Feel like I'm watching the 2005 PHX Suns tbh.

[timtonymanu]

Rique is back to being trigger happy. smh.

[NASpurs]

When you take out MVPLeonard, this shit happens.

[MI21]

Such basic miscues defensively, almost laughable. How many wide, wide, wide open 3's have the Clippers had in the last 5 minutes? Of course the bullshit will start falling after they have got there groove hitting wide open shots.

[TE]

Fucking terrible. We can't contain anyone.

[RD2191]

:lmao

[BatManu20]

:lol fat baby davis

[spursparker9]

lol i rather see westchuck celebrating after a basket than big baby tbh

[TheGoldStandard]

Oh shit Splitter is in the game..

[FkLA]

The bad thing about Rique going off is that he thinks it means that it's ok for him to start going 1-on-5.

[100%duncan]

Lol

[TE]

We got a call

[NASpurs]

MVPatty!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ElNono]

patty with the flop

[timtonymanu]

When you take out MVPLeonard, this shit happens.

:cry But he's 1-10.

[Johnny RIngo]

Patty taking the charge

[timtonymanu]

Pathetic

[TE]

Lmao

[TXstbobcat]

Fuck!!!!!!

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Gosh I hope these punks get thrown in jail.

[ElNono]

:lmao Marco

[NASpurs]

Holy shit Jordan :lol

[RD2191]

Lmao b ahahahahahaha haha hahaha

[cjw]

DJ just killed Marco

[TE]

Lmao Beli

[Darius Bieber]

Spurs literally getting raped

[100%duncan]

The bad thing about Rique going off is that he thinks it means that it's ok for him to start going 1-on-5.

Parker was the one who gave us the lead. Stop hating this game, it's stupid.

[spursparker9]

lol poor Macro. assisted from turnobili

[loveforthegame]

Wow. That Manu pass and Marco defense.

[RD2191]

Turning this shit off.

[timtonymanu]

Spurs back to loser ball again. smh. That Pistons game was a fluke.

[100%duncan]

The bad thing about Rique going off is that he thinks it means that it's ok for him to start going 1-on-5.

Parker was the one who gave us the lead. Stop hating this game, it's stupid.

[MI21]

Hopefully Pop is saving the Green on CP3 defensive switch for the last quarter also. Don't understand why he isn't getting minutes, hopefully saving his legs..but I doubt it :lol

[TheGoldStandard]

Great pass Manu... smh

[NASpurs]

Ferrari on a poster... just not the one Ferraris are normally on.

[TE]

Jordan think's he just won a championship

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Team went away from Duncan and this happens. Duncan is the only player on this team that is mentally tough enough to handle it if Pop were to say the team goes as he goes.

[FkLA]

Parker was the one who gave us the lead. Stop hating this game, it's stupid.

It was. Going 1-on-5 is also why it disappeared so quickly.

[NASpurs]

:cry But he's 1-10.

What do you expect from 'tards who only focus on one side of the ball :lol

[Darius Bieber]

Stick a fork in it, this game is done. Tomorrow will be a loss too.

[spursparker9]

No matter what happen this game, guaranteed a loss tomorrow at GS

[timtonymanu]

Clippers are such faggots.
