I get the feeling this is going to be rape, one way or the other. Hopefully it's the Spurs giving it to Lollard and Co.

[Robz4000]

Both teams on multi-game losing streaks. Expect the home team to break theirs unfortunately.

[r0drig0lac]

then...

[Darius Bieber]

Portland has been the Spurs weak point in the past couple of years.... 30+ point loss.

[Russo21]

Usage of the 'word' rape gets thrown around a crazy amount on this site. Time to quit it and grow up?

[cjw]

Why do we keep having to play nationally televised games? I'd rather just listen to the train wreck than stay awake until an ungodly hour watching it.

[Budkin]

Not watching any more games until these guys start playing like they give a shit. Complete waste of time and just frustrates the fuck out of me.

[Silver&Black]

Tonight is the night we turn the season around....

[in2deep]

I see Spurs winning this one. and while many fans here will say "spurs are back!" I will say it was just Spurs hitting the snooze button.

I know what you are saying. Utah game was the first game I turned off with 10 to go in the 4th

Green's comments really make it seem like he is passive aggressively calling someone out tbh. But as much as everyone shits on Parker I really don't believe that he is the end all be all for what's happening. Spurs haven't looked that good with or without him

[silverblackfan]

I know what you are saying. Utah game was the first game I turned off with 10 to go in the 4th

I shut it down in the 3rd quarter. They were just not showing effort. Second or third game this year I have not finished because the team was so sloppy. Seems a waste of NBA pass to watch if they are not going to show up. I watch every game, but now am thinking of alternatives.

[MI21]

A Spurs machine rolling along at a 60 win pace has always struggled in this arena.

Expect somebody like Batum to play a great game, probably Afflalo as well.

Wes Matthews will make 1 3PFG in the first quarter at which Pop will get extremely mad and drag LDN for Belinelli. Splitter will see 9 minutes court time defending Aldridge.

Spurs will hang around and then have the lead extend in the 4th and go on to lose by between 8-16 points.

[Cry Havoc]

Win or lose, I'd like to see our guys play like they want to be on the court tonight. Outside of Duncan, CoJo, and Green, they're sleepwalking. A W would be sweet, but just getting back to ball movement and solid defense is the important thing here.

I would say Duncan, Cojo and Baynes are the only ones I have seen give consistent effort on every play.

[HI-FI]

well this should at least be an entertaining game. maybe Pop will bench Parker if he keeps putting the Spurs in a hole. I doubt it though. Hopefully CoJo will get a lot more burn, he's more than earned it.

Danny Green didn't open the door for Marco, he's not going to start the game.

Hope to see some urgency, inspired play, also hope they win the 50 -50 balls

:lol Come on Budkin, you sound like a fairweather fan, tbh... I know you're better than that

[Legacy]

I might watch the first half, if I don't like what I see-- *click*...

[look_at_g_shred]

Spurs will start off sloppy as expected and be down 6-8 points before pop calls the first timeout of the game. Then the Spurs will come back and play better and tighten up. At the half the Blazers will be up 6. Entering the 4th Spurs will be down 5. Spurs will get hot in the 4th primarily the bench and win by 6.

[Seventyniner]

I was thinking the same thing, but it's kind of worrying to hear it from Pop himself tbh.

[RD2191]

Need a win tonight and both clips/mavs loss.

[Legacy]

Okay, since I wimped out on the Utah game (and I'm very glad I did, tbh :lol), I'll try to watch the whole game. Those quotes have my eyebrow raised as well.

[Budkin]

:lol Come on Budkin, you sound like a fairweather fan, tbh... I know you're better than that

Just the opposite, I care too damn much about it. Seeing them play so poorly hurts my soul! :lol

I do agree this is a big game in terms of standings; however, I believe there is no regular season that depicts your playoff fate.

Doc river overrated fucking coach :lmao

[phxspurfan]

I do agree this is a big game in terms of standings; however, I believe there is no regular season that depicts your playoff fate.

It's not the regular season thing; it's how this team will respond, on the road, to a losing streak, with locker room questions. Basically, will they fold under pressure, or will this be the turning point? It can't get much worse than losing to the Jazz if you're the world champs.

[dabom]

Fuck the national feed tonight. I'm going with the local feed.

Jon Barry is a douche. Sitting just to the young sidekick's left (right side of tv screen)

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

I kid you not, I literally made out with a hot girl before this game, and I'm harder from watching Duncan than I was from making out with her...

[KL2]

Pay attention to how damn long it is taking TP to get shots for guys and the quality of shots he's getting guys.

Green wtf was that.

Green misses a shot, Manu immediately going in for him. Parker misses three and he's still on the court.

Tim Duncan, the only Spur who cares.

Don't worry Manu will come in and get 3 assists, for Portland

[in2deep]

[baseline bum]

Damn, that shit looked like me shooting a 20 footer tbh

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Disgusting. Poor Timmy is yet again carrying the whole team while everyone else shoots bricks and does rainbows around the court. Tony Parker needs to just sit out for a few games, cause he's been practically worthless the past four games.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

I'm not a big Parker hater like the rest of the posters here, but I'm not delusional, he's killing this team right now.

[Cry Havoc]

What the fuck Danny.

[Uriel]

I feel like this game is make or break for our season. If we win, it will be the start of a long winning streak that will signal to the NBA that the sleeping giant has awoken (a la 07). If we lose, realistically speaking, this team will be consigned to irrelevance.

[MI21]

Parker couldn't have started any worse, fucking hell

[ducks]

green did not miss the shot he was not even close
he is not having fun bench him

[TheGoldStandard]

Danny Green chucking up a poor shot because he knows he won't get a shot unless he forces it

[manu]

BRING IN COJO!!!!!!! Get TP out of there!!!

[baseline bum]

Recipe for disaster when the Spurs need Duncan to score a lot of points early. Hell, it was bad when Tim was in his prime.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

I feel like this game is make or break for our season. If we win, it will be the start of a long winning streak that will signal to the NBA that the sleeping giant has awoken (a la 07). If we lose, realistically speaking, this team will be consigned to irrelevance.

I completely agree, this feels like their last chance of gaining much needed momentum, and only Duncan is trying.

[Robz4000]

Is Pop really about to bench Green?

[Cry Havoc]

I'm not a big Parker hater like the rest of the posters here, but I'm not delusional, he's killing this team right now.

Everyone not named Tim is killing this team right now. If Parker was playing like shit and everyone else was stepping up we'd be rolling over teams.

[Silver&Black]

Damn, I wish I hadn't missed it. :cry

Actually, they basically said that you only have to look at TP's play to see why the Spurs are having a lack of success.

Not in those exact words.....but something close to that.

Those who cannot deliver should be ashamed of themselves..

Please don't mention Tony and Isiah in the same sentence. IT was an awesome playoff performer while Tony's been a choke artiest in May and June.

[hater]

well I'm for putting in Cojon-less and see if he can do a decent job. Parker looks like he's not for this game :lol

[shingo_318]

This is embarrassing. Blazers are shootin lights out, but we look awful. Kawhi can't dribble, Danny can't shoot, and Tony can't do anything.
