Game Thread: Cavs at Spurs. 9:30 EST (8:30 CST. 3:30 Riga Time)

[hater]

Wow, Irving is going Sandusky on Parker, tbh..

And Parker going Colorado on Irving dummy

[NASpurs]

Pop's just waiting until Irving gets going and it's too late making Green or whomever is on him the scape goat.

[ElNono]

now the entire offense is ISO shit, and we're trading baskets...

[Horse]

How much fucking trash can Irving throw up and keep getting rolls.

[Uriel]

Watching Tony Parker play now compared to a couple of weeks ago is like night and day. He's a totally new player.

[hater]

Parker and Kyrie just can't guard each other.

Truth bomb. That's why I said d key is green vs kylia

[NASpurs]

Put Parker on J.R. Smith. That faggot will shoot teams out of a win.

[BillMc]

What can we do to slow Irving? Put Green on him?

[Silver&Black]

And Parker going Colorado on Irving dummy

Yeah....he left that part out.

hater...

My nigga.

[coachmac87]

This is such a good game so far....I love it

[ElNono]

It's perfectly fine that Tony can abuse Irving... he should... on defense though, we need stops. At least try somebody else, jeez

[SpurPadre]

For fucks sake Pop, TRY GREEN

Nah, he'll stick Bonner on Irving, tbh.

[hitmanyr2k]

Watching Tony Parker play now compared to a couple of weeks ago is like night and day. He's a totally new player.

Maybe he took a trip to Lebron's clinic in Miami :lol

[MI21]

I'm posting this for later...

:lol @ Irving so far in the 4th since LDN has switched on to him

[Uriel]

Put Parker on J.R. Smith. That faggot will shoot teams out of a win.
He can also shoot teams out of a loss, though. Risky.

[BillMc]

Watching Tony Parker play now compared to a couple of weeks ago is like night and day. He's a totally new player.

Yeah. Great to see him healthy.

[Beaverfuzz]

:lmao

my nigga.

[$pursDynasty]

At least Parker is scoring... guess that negates the damage a bit.
a bit??? aren't he and Kyrie basically equal in points. That's the Cavs 2nd best scorer by a mile, if MVParker matches Kyrie I like the rest of the Spurs chances of outscoring Lebron and the rest of the Cavs. Cut the man some slack. I am sure the Cavs sight isn't lamenting Kyrie getting torched on D.

[Chinook]

For fucks sake Pop, TRY GREEN

Nah, because he couldn't justify playing Beli over Danny then.

[Horse]

Honestly Irving is chucking

[NASpurs]

He can also shoot teams out of a loss, though. Risky.

If he's taking all the shots, then who cares. You live with it.

[Uriel]

Anyone remember when Pop stuck Splitter on Wade in 2013? :lol

[hater]

Pop baiting them niggas

Love it. If he can avoid tiring kawhi and parker....

[timtonymanu]

"We need stops. Tony, cover Kyrie."

[Beaverfuzz]

JUMP BALL!

Jesus how late was that call?

[ElNono]

come on Danny

[loveforthegame]

Timmy D.

[Silver&Black]

Jump Ball....

:worthy: Timmy

[Malik Hairston]

And Parker going Colorado on Irving dummy

The Cavs play an ISO system with limited options, Irving is asked to hog the ball all the time..he can do this all night with Parker guarding him, and they don't mind..

Parker hogging the ball on a team full of weapons and the best system in the league is irrelevant when he's getting killed on D, it's just going to ice the rest of the team, tbh..Spurs aren't winning an ISO battle vs. Cleveland..

[Raven]

damn what a block

[KL2]

Switch Green on Irving, let Smith go retard

[RD2191]

tf parker

[Beaverfuzz]

Tony is trying to draw contact but they're not giving him the benefit of the doubt for the most part.

[Uriel]

Great hustle Tony. :tu

[RD2191]

det fucking core better not choke

[hater]

Pop dismantled the Cavs game plan and rhythm. Problem is he fractured the spurs ones too.

[SpurPadre]

"We need stops. Tony, cover Kyrie."

Or worse, "we need stops." Plays Bonner.

[Raven]

The Cavs play an ISO system with limited options, Irving is asked to hog the ball all the time..

Parker hogging the ball on a team full of weapons and the best system in the league..

not really tbh, it's hard, clearly, but from what i have seen from cleveland the last few months, they are keeping the ball away from him most of the time, making him the true playmaker mostly with the second unit..

[ElNono]

verde just been off

[hitmanyr2k]

Tony is trying to draw contact but they're not giving him the benefit of the doubt for the most part.

He flails too much and refs start swallowing their whistles on that shit after awhile. I remember Kobe's "HEY" flail combo was money in the early 00's. Then the refs wised up in the later 00's and stopped calling it so much. I think they're doing the same to Parker now.

[Silver&Black]

Danny hot early...now not so much.

He'll get it going though.

[BanditHiro]

lol what a bunch of shit.

[timtonymanu]

Chuck is jinxing us. Stfu fatty

[RD2191]

lmao at that bullshit

[unleashbaynes]

Danny just owned Irving

[NASpurs]

:lmao everybody just scores on Parker

[Beaverfuzz]

KIWI

[ElNono]

:wow TD slam

[TXstbobcat]

[$pursDynasty]

well TD handled that one, lol

[Beaverfuzz]

THROW THAT SHIT DOWN BIG MAN ONE TIME!

[Silver&Black]

:worthy: Timmy

My. Fucking. Nigga.

[hitmanyr2k]

Grandpa Duncan turning back the clock!!

[Uriel]

TIMYYYYYYYYYY

[Silver&Black]

Who was the Tech on?

[Raven]

what a poster

[Beaverfuzz]

Who was the T on, missed it since C-Webb and Chuck are yelling.


JR SMith ok.

[TheGreatYacht]

Parker schooling this overhyped faggot :lmao

[RD2191]

lets get a stop fellas

[itzsoweezee]

Shitty officiating is the only reason this game is close right now.

[Beaverfuzz]

Who was the Tech on?

your nigga JR Smith.

[hyhy]

finally danny on kyrie

[Darius Bieber]

GOAT

[SpurPadre]

Smith with the knucklehead Technical per par.

[loveforthegame]

Irving just shit in Green.

[$pursDynasty]

no one blasting Green for his defense though?

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!!!!

[unleashbaynes]

Fuck yeah parker.

[NASpurs]

He should had been on Irving since the start. Now Irving is feeling it.

[RD2191]

lets get a stop fellas

[Silver&Black]

your nigga JR Smith.

:lmao

[unleashbaynes]

That was clean

[loveforthegame]

Leonard just shit on Irving. :tu

[Silver&Black]

Kawhi DPOY....just give it to the guy.

[TheGreatYacht]

DPOY

[KL2]

MVP!!!!


irving dominating everyone, MVP steps in

[hitmanyr2k]

Kawhi looks hyped :lol He has that look in his eye like he wants to talk a little trash but he held back.

[ElNono]

finally kiwi with the block... get a stop here

[Baelzar]

Apparently Parker owns real estate under the basket.

[Raven]

kyrie getting on plenty posters on both ends today :lol

[hater]

Kawhi beasting imo

[pgardn]

KL and Parker are huge so far.

[SASdynasty!]

Kawhi with the D

[RD2191]

in b4 fluke 3

[itzsoweezee]

This game has been really entertaining to watch. Really high level of play from both teams.

[024]

Leonard and Parker waking up in the 2nd

[SpurPadre]

Leonard just shit on Irving. :tu

And Manu just Shit on the bench.

[loveforthegame]

Terrible end.

[Beaverfuzz]

Dumb, should have pulled up for a J there...

but lead at the half is good.

[timtonymanu]

I really didn't like that first half at all. We're scoring but that's it.

[Raven]

should have shot the 3ball..

[unleashbaynes]

no one blasting Green for his defense though?

Literally 2 possessions ago danny didn't let Irving get within 30 feet, stripping him twice. If a spur had been near the ball it was an easy Spurs bucket, but JR smith swished a bullshit 3 instead.

[TXstbobcat]

Damn good game so far!!!!!!

[Beaverfuzz]

And Manu just Shit on the bench.

Liquid poop, there's a difference.

[Uriel]

Wow.

[crc21209]

Damn. Best regular season game so far or what? Wow
Still not loving the damn defense though..

[Brunodf]

6 point lead cut to 2 :bang

[itzsoweezee]

Kawhi looks hyped :lol He has that look in his eye like he wants to talk a little trash but he held back.

Yeah, he's going at these dudes like it's personal.

[Raven]

well, can't be satisfied with a 62 points alowed half. not at all.

[ElNono]

tough game, good 1st half... we need to hold them under 25 in a quarter if we want to win this, tbh

[james evans]

finally danny on kyrie
he has to remain on him. We got to make Jr smith beat us. At this rate, Kyrie was on his way to 45 points. I aint gonna shit on parker completely cuz he's killing kyrie too.

[RD2191]

I really didn't like that first half at all. We're scoring but that's it.

[MI21]

Gobert shitting all over Houston right now, Utah look like they will probably get the W, big second half for the Spurs coming up!

[KL2]

No more Belli, hope Pop doesn't bring him back

[TMTTRIO]

Why is Manu even there if he's not playing? He should still be at home. Hope he doesn't get anyone else sick.

[Malik Hairston]

Should keep Parker on JR Smith in the 2nd half, let him keep taking stupid ISO shots, tbh..

The bench should be the difference, the Cavs bench is pretty weak..hopefully they exploit the Diaw matchup more frequently, they didn't go to it enough IMO..

[Beaverfuzz]

Yep, time for some actual D guys....

[RD2191]

plz dont choke jazz

[BillMc]

Damn. Best regular season game so far or what? Wow
Still not loving the damn defense though..

Yeah. Really entertaining game. Playoff style. Fascinating matchups. The sort of game you absolutely love.....as long as your team wins.

[milkyway21]

What about Danny Green on Irving in the 3rd? He's got 22 pts@ halftime already

[SpurPadre]

That D isn't playoff-ready yet, tbh. It'll be there when the time comes, though.

[Johnny RIngo]

Damn. Best regular season game so far or what? Wow
Still not loving the damn defense though..

Nah, Spurs-Griz 2OT game in Dec- too bad we lost that one though

[SupremeGuy]

Kawhi vs. Lebron... holy shit

[james evans]

no one blasting Green for his defense though?
he hasn't scored 22 points on danny green. stop it please

[timtonymanu]

Definitely need more bench production. Only Patty has stepped up.

[01Snake]

http://i.imgur.com/D7OQxue.gif

[RD2191]

irving is too fast for green and parker. need cojo out there but then we would be 2 small

[scanry]

DK's Gatorade commercial is a classic.

[KL2]

What about Danny Green on Irving in the 3rd? He's got 22 pts@ halftime already

Parker was guarding him, Green didn't switch on him until the end

[pgardn]

I hope we can get Kyrie and Lebron to take things personally like Barkley stated. Personally for these two means no passing.

[Johnny RIngo]

Gobert shitting all over Houston right now, Utah look like they will probably get the W, big second half for the Spurs coming up!

so disappointed we couldn't draft him - went one pick just before us in 2013. We ended up drafting the French bust and Utah got the stud.

[Silver&Black]

http://i.imgur.com/U16zdni.png

[Capt Bringdown]

Definitely need more bench production. Only Patty has stepped up.

It'd be nice if Diaw realized there is a game tonight.

[PingPong]

Fuck, Gobert with 22 rebounds, 19 pts.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Spurs shooting 62% and only up 2.

That's not a good sign.

[HI-FI]

Nah, Spurs-Griz 2OT game in Dec- too bad we lost that one though
Yeah I was at hooters, on vacation, and I couldn't leave the joint because the game kept going. Great game.

[milkyway21]

plz dont choke jazz

I am hoping too..71-90 Jazz

Memphis lost

[spursparker9]

Houston getting routed by Jazz

[KL2]

Could've had Gobert+Leonard+Green defensive combo :depressed

[PingPong]

http://i.imgur.com/D7OQxue.gif


Well deserved Pay attention to the game, not to the fucking cellphone.

[RD2191]

lets hope we dont have one of our patented shit 3rd qtrs tbh

[BillMc]

Trust Pop to out adjust Blatt. Wish Manu were healthy though....

[Malik Hairston]

Duncan's D has been pretty bad outside of those blocks, too, btw, it's not all on Parker..the help has been way too slow..

Really hope they let JR Smith try to go at Parker and win the game, and that the Spurs exploit the Diaw mismatch more often..

Hopefully Cleveland doesn't realize Bonner is on the floor, too:lol..

[Robz4000]

Spurs shooting 62% and only up 2.

That's not a good sign.

Only one's shooting well are Kawhi and Tony, and most of their shots have been in the paint. D has to get better tho.

[TheGreatYacht]

576214674963873792

[hater]

Pop is tiring parker and kawhi but he's doing it by bating roids and kylia. Hopefully his strategy works out. Looms iffy

[NASpurs]

Can you imagine if Diaw actually showed up?

[Raven]

Could've had Gobert+Leonard+Green defensive combo :depressed

please don't hurt me.

[Robz4000]

Duncan's D has been pretty bad outside of those blocks, too, btw, it's not all on Parker..the help has been way too slow..

Yop. Spurs actually have looked their best with Splitter in and Duncan out.

[spursparker9]

Can you imagine if Diaw actually showed up?

probably because of the playoff atmosphere lol

[Malik Hairston]

Pop is tiring parker and kawhi but he's doing it by bating roids and kylia. Hopefully his strategy works out. Looms iffy

Parker and Irving aren't tired, neither of them played any defense in the 1st half:lol..

[BillMc]

Could've had Gobert+Leonard+Green defensive combo :depressed

Didn't Gobert get taken like 1 or 2 picks before we were up?

[Budkin]

lets hope we dont have one of our patented shit 3rd qtrs tbh

You know it's coming. We'll have to rally in the 4th.

[Johnny RIngo]

Could've had Gobert+Leonard+Green defensive combo :depressed

we drafted this scrub one pick after gobert:

http://airalamo.com/2014/12/11/spurs-draft-stash-prospect-livio-jean-charles-struggling/

[Raven]

joseph-green-leonard-tiago-gobert

would get 20 steals/blocks per game :lol

[SupremeGuy]

http://i.imgur.com/D7OQxue.gif:lol

[TXstbobcat]

Didn't Gobert get taken like 1 or 2 picks before we were up?

Yeah Spurs would have to have traded up to get Gobert.

[SnakeBoy]

http://i.imgur.com/D7OQxue.gif

:lol

Watch the fucking game bitch!

[SupremeGuy]

lets hope we dont have one of our patented shit 3rd qtrs tbhWe better not fucker! lol Hopefully Manu took all the shits for the team.

[hater]

Parker and Irving aren't tired, neither of them played any defense in the 1st half:lol..

Neither pg can't guard each other. Neither the SFs. Don't mean they didn't expend energy out there

[Johnny RIngo]

http://i.imgur.com/D7OQxue.gif

:lol love the half assed block from the guy next to her

[hitmanyr2k]

http://i.imgur.com/D7OQxue.gif

:lol :lol :lol

[Malik Hairston]

Neither pg can't guard each other. Neither the SFs. Don't mean they didn't expend energy out there

Of course they did, but offense is the least tiring aspect of basketball:lol..rebounding and defense takes a much larger toll..

Parker will be fine in the 2nd half, hopefully he drops 35 tonight:toast..

[SpurPadre]

Don't play Fuckhead Bonner another second and we got this.

[TheGreatYacht]

Of course this dumb broad checks up on JR, and not Manu smh

[Silver&Black]

Double-foul?

[SupremeGuy]

Gay call, tbh.

[hitmanyr2k]

Didn't see Kawhi do anything wrong there.

[TXstbobcat]

Splitter!!!!!

[Silver&Black]

Nice pass Timmy....Tiago with the finish.

My niggas.

[PublicOption]

does anyone have this sinking feeling that the knicks are gonna try and take kwahi away from us?

[loveforthegame]

Leonard is a fucking boss.

[SupremeGuy]

I've never seen Lebron get so rattled by a player... thank you Kawhi!

[hitmanyr2k]

Lebron is pressing trying to take Kawhi. That Finals loss last year clearly damaged his ego a bit.

[Silver&Black]

Kawhi....:wow

DPOY

[$pursDynasty]

KingSlayer!

[RD2191]

Kawhi....:wow

DPOY

[ElNono]

Blood drawn

[itzsoweezee]

Kawhi is dominating this dude. DPOY, no question, right?

[ElNono]

here comes the fluke JR Smith 3

[Texas_Ranger]

lol Kevin love thinking he is a post player

[SupremeGuy]

does anyone of this sinking feeling that the knicks are gonna try and take kwahi away from us?We can offer him the most money/years, he's not going anywhere. Especially with NY state tax? :lol What a shit take man.

[SpurPadre]

Of course this dumb broad checks up on JR, and not Manu smh

Well, I wouldn't wanna be smelling farts and shit, either tbh.

[loveforthegame]

Hope Leonard doesn't pick up another cheap foul. Can't afford to sit him.

[RD2191]

:bang

[timtonymanu]

Someone has to shoot

[ElNono]

fucking Tiago

[SpurPadre]

Why didn't splitter kick it to a wide open Kawhi?

[Silver&Black]

mozgoz killing us on the offensive boards...

[Raven]

we should go with the parker pick and roll on every possession, they have no fuckin clue how to defend that.. not surprising since... you know, love.

[Silver&Black]

:lmao Splitter fast break

[loveforthegame]

Splitter. :bang

[KL2]

Tragic

[ElNono]

fucking Tiago

[NASpurs]

:lmao Shitter

[SupremeGuy]

LMAO Tiago wtf?

[SpurPadre]

[loveforthegame]

Great pass, cut, layup.

[Johnny RIngo]

[TXstbobcat]

[Silver&Black]

TP floater is looking good again....

My nigga.

[ace3g]

[RD2191]

wtf spurs

[MI21]

:lol @ Love's defense on the Danny Green backdoor cut

[ElNono]

[KL2]

So close to blowing this open

[Silver&Black]

Great defense Verde....terrible fucking turnover follows.

:pctoss

[hitmanyr2k]

Love got hammered on that second shot :lol

[NASpurs]

:lmao Love

[ElNono]

lmao faggot Love

[Johnny RIngo]

finally some great d

[Cry Havoc]

Parker 10-13. :wow

[PingPong]

Love with the Splitter moves.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard making a couple mistakes but he usually makes up for it.

[ElNono]

finally playing some D

[Uriel]

I wish Kawhi played against LeBron everyday. He really brings out the best in him.

[davemaniscool]

Kawhi doing a nice job cutting off Lebron's bully drives

[Silver&Black]

Irving en fuego...

[ElNono]

they sure know where they bread is buttered

[Cry Havoc]

:lmao Love throws himself into 3 defenders who don't even move then bitches for a foul. Really, kid? And you say you're a "post-player"? That was some Westbrook type shit. :lol

[RD2191]

fuck off irving

[hitmanyr2k]

Did they call a jump ball on Duncan's ankle?

[peacemaker885]

I wish Kawhi played against LeBron everyday. He really brings out the best in him.

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!!!!!

[Silver&Black]

Finally playing some good D....TP gets the paint basket.

My nigga.

[timtonymanu]

Irving throwing up all kinds of bullshit. Of course it's going in.

[RD2191]

put that lame ass bitch on his ass, fuck

[loveforthegame]

If it wasn't for Irving we'd blow this open.

[ElNono]

Tony is playing great, tbh.... but smh.... SMH....

[Brunodf]

:lol How many points in the paint have been in the paint lmao

[Robz4000]

Fucking guard Irving

[RD2191]

FUCK that really pisses me off

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Fuck, we should be up more

Damn Kyrie

[crc21209]

Fucking Irving again...

[SupremeGuy]

So can we stop giving up Irving 3s? Thanks!

[TheGreatYacht]

There's always one motherfucker carrying Lebron, every time..

[hater]

:lol Pop has Kylia chucking. Good strategy imo

[Johnny RIngo]

Kyrie's unstoppable tonight - fucker's preventing us from blowing this open

[hitmanyr2k]

Kawhi is winning his battle. Right now Irving and Parker are going at it like Rocky and Apollo in the 15th round.

[Cry Havoc]

TONY FUCKING PARKER

[ElNono]

you have Danny out there shadowing JR fucking Smith... come on Pop

[itzsoweezee]

Damn, the Spurs are totally outplaying these guys. They should be up more.

[Silver&Black]

Did they call a jump ball on Duncan's ankle?

The shot clock was at 0.5 seconds for that jump ball. I may be wrong....but I thought they changed the rule this year to reset it to 5 seconds?

Anybody know? Does the shot clock reset or not?

[TheGreatYacht]

Well, I wouldn't wanna be smelling farts and shit, either tbh.
:lmao true

[SupremeGuy]

Is there anything more annoying than scoring a hard fought basket just for some dick to nail 3 on the other side? FUCK! TP needs to step up his d, tbh.
