[Robz4000]

Fitting end

[RD2191]

:lol

[Cry Havoc]

Hey, how's this game going? You know... The one you said the Spurs would win by 20+...

Remind me, how many championships are won in March? Just curious. You'd know, since you give up on your team on a daily basis.

[Brazil]

Of course :lol

[Raven]

of course he'd miss..

[NASpurs]

:lmao :lmao :lmao

[timtonymanu]

:lol Spurs
:lol choking every other game
:lol Pop's beard
:lol throwing away another opportunity

[Beaverfuzz]

just lose already... no need for the second OT. Also cant wait for the loss against the Bucks tomorrow.

Well at least Boris is good for something...fouling.

[loveforthegame]

So Duncan is a choker now too?

[bklynspursfan]

oh, hi tiago.

[BatManu20]

In the 4th qtr, that rim shrinks to half it's size for us at the FT line.

[Silver&Black]

FTs....smh.

It's our achilles heel

[Kool Bob Love]

That was some weak shit by Duncan. Lucky he got bailed lol.

You get thoese kind of calls when you got 5 at home in south Texas.

[r0drig0lac]

Spurs are weak mentally this year, unfortunately

[spurtech09]

free throw woes

[KaiRMD1]

Get ready to rebound muthaeffer!

[Budkin]

FUCK THIS TEAM.

[Darius Bieber]

Remind me, how many championships are won in March? Just curious. You'd know, since you give up on your team on a daily basis.

lol you honestly think this team will win a championship? They can't even beat fucking New York.

[TheGreatYacht]

Pop has to be the worst coach in history at the end of games. It's literally Manu FTW, an illegal screen for a 3, or that Duncan fadeaway

[Chomag]

Fuck this team loves to choke

[100%duncan]

JUST GO FOR THE FUCKING WIN YOU DIPSHITS

[hitmanyr2k]

Double OT coming up. The Knicks suck too much to win this game.

[KaiRMD1]

All right, what the fuck are they going to do now?

[FaM0us Skins]

Dammitt

[Beaverfuzz]

SCORE

[Silver&Black]

Lane violation....

[timtonymanu]

Alright who else is up to choke? Duncan, Leonard, and Green have already done their share.

[100%duncan]

Kawhi for the 3 tbh.

[spurtech09]

here we again

[spurtech09]

Lane violation....yeah

[r0drig0lac]

watch the other team leave Kawhi free

[RD2191]

[KaiRMD1]

There it is, holy cow

[Kool Bob Love]

Fuuuuuuuuuu

[NASpurs]

[$pursDynasty]

scved destroyed kiwi tonight

[resistanze]

:lmao Duncan

[hitmanyr2k]

Shitty pass by Duncan tbh.

[BatManu20]

Duncan can't stop turning the ball over in big moments :lol

[Raven]

well that was one fucking awful play

[FaM0us Skins]

:bang

[bklynspursfan]

duncan :lol

use your head man. NY was expecting that.

[Kool Bob Love]

Big hand Kawhi can't catch a simple pass. Smh.

[r0drig0lac]

ok ..game over

[shingo_318]

Both team don't want to take the W......WTF

[DAF86]

:lmao :lmao :lmao

Should have gone for the handoff, tbh.

[Cry Havoc]

lol you honestly think this team will win a championship? They can't even beat fucking New York.

Jan 2, 2014 Spurs vs. New York Knicks L 101 - 105 lost 1

Not that you'd remember, since you clearly root against the Spurs and thus have had to purge last season from your memory. :lol

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Spurs are so unclutch so far this year.

[ffadicted]

How the hell did Kiwi mishandle that

[Robz4000]

Please miss the playoffs so I don't have to watch this abortion in the postseason.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Lol on a night Memphis loses....

[timtonymanu]

Spurs keep shitting away every opportunity to move up. That rough schedule is gonna kill them.

[Silver&Black]

Ball game....

[spurtech09]

so many chances lol.....spurs are wack

[NASpurs]

Even Clyde Frazier is saying that Duncan has been bad during clutch time this year, which is true.

[boutons_deux]

lose to the fuckin 13 - 53 knicks

[KaiRMD1]

We need an OKC miracle shot

[Beaverfuzz]

NAH NAH
NAH NAH NAH NAH
HEY HEY HEY
GOODBYE!

[HI-FI]

just need to draw up a 4 point play here.

[vander]

Derek Fisher takes down the Spurs again

[RD2191]

faggots dopping to 7th. 1st round exit.

[Beaverfuzz]

We need an OKC miracle shot

Where's McGrady when you need him?

[bklynspursfan]

green was wide open. a pump fake and you get an open corner 3. tim.... seriously

[spurtech09]

Lol on a night Memphis loses....
I know.....spurs don't want it

[HI-FI]

fuck it, 5 point play, go for the win.

[TheGreatYacht]

scved destroyed kiwi tonight
I don't get it

[hitmanyr2k]

How the hell did Kiwi mishandle that

Stop. Duncan just put on a clinic of how to throw a shitty pass :lol

[resistanze]

What a weird gimmicky play to run while down 2

[cd98]

That's how you make two free throws to seal a game.

[$pursDynasty]

who didnt see that coming? tim always fucks up on these plays.
yet Pop called it

[KaiRMD1]

Spurs are fucking lazy, these are just lazy lazy plays. Even that inbounds was fucking lazy

[BatManu20]

We can't even inbound the ball tbh

[024]

Duncan and Leonard choking so hard. Parker and Diaw not helping either.

[TampaDude]

We are literally the worst inbounding team in NBA history. LOL.

[spurtech09]

All I can say is the Knicks lol...the freaking Knicks lol are you kidding me

[Silver&Black]

:lmao sperms

[ElNono]

well, that was a waste of 2 hours

[HI-FI]

Thank God that didn't go double OT, Spurs would've blown that.

[ironman2886]

Pop, all smiles.

[Beaverfuzz]

[AusSpur]

The Spurs end of game foul shooting has lost them multiple games this year.

[Raven]

shameful, very shameful.

[timtonymanu]

Terrible loss. This team keeps suffering shitty losses and they never learn a damn thing.

[Cry Havoc]

Good lord. This is an embarrassment.

[Silver&Black]

Going to kill myself now....

Nice knowing you all.

[dav4463]

Embarrassing

[daslicer]

Stop. Duncan just put on a clinic of how to throw a shitty pass :lol

Duncan has thrown a lot of shitty passes this year in these type of situations. I remember he had that one pass where he threw in the Detroit game that lead to the Spurs losing the game.

[RD2191]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4jGSvxCRp4
:lol

[spurtech09]

Duncan and Leonard choking so hard. Parker and Diaw not helping either.
agree all around poor game from everyone

[Cry Havoc]

The Austin Spurs would have put up more of a fight.

[KaiRMD1]

Credit to the knicks, Spurs were hella lazy. They did not deserve to win this game at all

[unleashbaynes]

I don't think I'm gonna watch NBA basketball anymore when Tim is done. I let this shit get me too worked up.

[dav4463]

I'm going back to the NIT.

[Beaverfuzz]

We are literally the worst inbounding team in NBA history. LOL.

and rebounding...I think anything that has to do with "bounding" the Spurs stink at right now.

[RD2191]

Going to kill myself now....

Nice knowing you all.
Mah nigga

[milkyway21]

FREE THROWS !!
This game shouldn't gone to OT ! :cry

[TampaDude]

SOS. 49-23. The cliff falls to death game season gone. Bye Bye.

[noles1983]

spurs suck this year, oh well last year was great

[Silver&Black]

Mah nigga

Especially going to miss you rob.....:depressed

[timtonymanu]

Credit to the knicks, Spurs were hella lazy. They did not deserve to win this game at all

I'm so sick of these kind of losses though. The Spurs just keep losing cause the effort isn't there. Pathetic.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

What a shame to lose to a team as disgusting and pathetic as the Knicks. Spurs are now 1-7 in overtime games this year :depressed

[weeks]

"this is the most embarrassing loss of the season"
every time i say it, i like to think it's the last time
but i keep saying it

[itzsoweezee]

Probably the worst Spurs loss I've witnessed in terms of importance of the game versus quality of opponent what a pitiful display.

[BillMc]

Okay, the magic is gone.:depressed Lost 2 of 3. Who wants to do game threads for a while?

[Chomag]

A D-league team can beat the knicks are you kidding me!

[KaiRMD1]

Where's McGrady when you need him?

In China

[Darius Bieber]

Spus wont get 50 wins. They'll get swept first round. Should have just tanked for the lottery.

[pgardn]

Well.

That was a mediocre debacle.
Seems we want that 7 seed.

Tim has got to have some help against mobile bigs.

There will be another night.

[BatManu20]

St. Paddy's day ruined, TBH.

[Chomag]

Are Spurs just expecting the NBA to just hand them a championship this year?

[Silver&Black]

Spus wont get 50 wins. They'll get swept first round. Should have just tanked for the lottery.

Congrats on your L tonight....

[TampaDude]

At least my Bolts won tonight.

[pgardn]

Spus wont get 50 wins. They'll get swept first round. Should have just tanked for the lottery.

Hey Eeoyre, hows Pooh?

[ironman2886]

Never seen Kawhi play so soft of defense. He couldn't post up these scrubs. He looked bored and uninterested. This MF needs to be motivated before every game. He's not max material. Way too inconsistent.

[Chomag]

oh well at least the bars have good specials going for ST Patricks day tonight.....going to need it.

[Cry Havoc]

Hey Eeoyre, hows Pooh?

He said that last year too. :lol I bet he was more upset about them winning it all because it meant he was wrong. :lol

[timtonymanu]

Are Spurs just expecting the NBA to just hand them a championship this year?

They just look content with last year's run, which is fine. Still, this is the worst regular season we've had to endure as fans. :lol Too many shitty losses to good and bad teams.

[spurs10]

So sad....

[SASdynasty!]

Pop has to be the worst coach in history at the end of games. It's literally Manu FTW, an illegal screen for a 3, or that Duncan fadeaway
This is a good observation. Parker is our best player at getting his own shot, but we almost never give him that opportunity.

[Legacy]

SOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOSSOS.... :bang :madrun :pctoss

[ironman2886]

I don't want to see Duncan or Kawhi with the ball at the end of a game ever again.

[BillMc]

Gotta admit I'm kind of worried about our road performance this year, especially as we'll need to win series afters series on the road.

[pgardn]

Manu.

Loose balls not gathered, playing soft... his game immunizes us against this crap.

We win these types of games with Manu.

[pgardn]

Wow.

Pop laying it out.
Its good they won, they played harder.

Justice served.

[InRareForm]

Spurs were 15 point favorites tonight.

[Budkin]

Pop pulling the "pathetic" card.

[pgardn]

Wow.

Pop laying it out.
Its good they won, they played harder.

Justice served.

Oh and he gave props to Fisher.
They really did play hard.

[RD2191]

Especially going to miss you rob.....:depressed
don't do it man, not worth it. we will...we will survive!

[milkyway21]

Forget about the stat sheet, forget about ppg %, but man without Manu Ginobili
This team has no KILLER INSTINCT.
:hang

[SpurSwag]

silver lining could be this really wakes us up, but then again why the fuck would you need to lose to the knicks to be fully woken up...

Idk i think this is just a blip in the road, but a somewhat costly one as every game counts and you pretty much circle this one as a guaranteed win as a fan. Oh well, I don't really think 50 wins is in question but the Clippers and Mavs are always vulnerable to losing bad games too so hopefully it'll balance out

[timtonymanu]

The thing is the Spurs have gotten these "wake up call" losses before and the trend is still continuing. The playoffs will determine if this team is really engaged. I'm expecting the ugly regular season losses to keep happening unfortunately.

[downunder]

The game against the Cavs has weakened both teams in the following game. Spurs and Cavs just tired.

[pgardn]

Forget about the stat sheet, forget about ppg %, but man without Manu Ginobili
This team has no KILLER INSTINCT.
:hang

Manu was indeed missed.
Its good for us to have him around because he gets so pissed off.

[SpurPadre]

WTF, I just came home from work to see we lost to the Knicks in late March?! Am I back in time to the '99 season when the Knicks were a Finals team?

[ElNono]

Forget about the stat sheet, forget about ppg %, but man without Manu Ginobili
This team has no KILLER INSTINCT.
:hang

Gino is a different kind of player. Hopefully he can recover soon, this team clearly needed leadership tonight...

[Mikeanaro]

Lame game lame team lame loss this is so fucking unprofessional.

[HI-FI]

Gino is a different kind of player. Hopefully he can recover soon, this team clearly needed leadership tonight...
pretty much. least he never gives up, for better or worse. Parker's body language is usually terrible imo.

[SpurSwag]

Realistically if we win tomorrow night I'll be OK with this back to back. I won't be happy, but 1-1 going into this back to back wouldn't have shocked me

[Sean Cagney]

The game against the Cavs has weakened both teams in the following game. Spurs and Cavs just tired.

If you want to believe that then it's fine, honestly that was a few nights ago and they just sucked tonight overall. No excuse to lose to the Knicks man, NONE.

[RD2191]

sean dropping nukes

[pgardn]

I have never seen a guy grab his head so much after contact.
Its a big round head.

[milkyway21]

Gino is a different kind of player. Hopefully he can recover soon, this team clearly needed leadership tonight...

Yeah that's the right word.

And also we were cruising hot last year because of the bench, Manu"s crew.
The Spurs were on top of the 3-pt % not only because of Danny Green but because of the emergence of Diaw, Mills + Bellinelli from that area. And Manu's leadership with helped a lot.

[Venti Quattro]

:lmao :lmao :lmao

[Budkin]

Never seen Kawhi play so soft of defense. He couldn't post up these scrubs. He looked bored and uninterested. This MF needs to be motivated before every game. He's not max material. Way too inconsistent.

Agreed, when fucking Smegma blows by you every single time you have problems. Kawhi is simply not stepping up. Plus he's a choker.

[RD2191]

Settle down. Kawhi is far from a choker.

[Legacy]

Even Kawhi himself can admit when he is responsible for a game loss (i.e, the Cavs game). Now, if only certain fans/posters on here could actually admit that he has his flaws just like every other human being on earth. :rolleyes

[look_at_g_shred]

Cliff jumping after losing to the Knicks :lol then what are yall going to say when we beat the bucks ?? Will this loss still matter when the playoffs start? When we are in thr third round, are you guys going to say..fuck I wish we would've won that New York game!!

[Sean Cagney]

Cliff jumping after losing to the Knicks :lol then what are yall going to say when we beat the bucks ?? Will this loss still matter when the playoffs start? When we are in thr third round, are you guys going to say..fuck I wish we would've won that New York game!!

For seeding it could matter later, this and every loss like this one this year. They could be in the 5th seed right now but keep giving away games like this to keep sliding back to 7th. If they are in the third round of course nobody will care about this game here, that is if they make it that far first. The way they are playing this year I can't see it but hey they might wake up and play consistent one of these days.

[Sean Cagney]

Agreed, when fucking Smegma blows by you every single time you have problems. Kawhi is simply not stepping up. Plus he's a choker.

I agree but dude has had some great games in big series in the playoffs to lead to a title or near one (The 013 missed FT I know but he did so much those last two games to help the team when hardly anyone but Tim showed) that prove he is not a choker all the time. He can choke at the line yes, but dude comes up HUGE in some big games.

[Legacy]

Cliff jumping after losing to the Knicks :lol then what are yall going to say when we beat the bucks ?? Will this loss still matter when the playoffs start? When we are in thr third round, are you guys going to say..fuck I wish we would've won that New York game!!

[look_at_g_shred]

:lol Guess you're in love with that 7th seed just as much as the Spurs are.
Your right man! The Spurs shouldve won so we could've taken that number 1 seed!!! Shame on me for being content.

[Legacy]

Your right man! The Spurs shouldve won so we could've taken that number 1 seed!!! Shame on me for being content.

:lmao Who said anything about the number 1 seed? It's common sense that you have to win games to move up in standings. Especially against scrub teams like the Knicks. Everyone knows seeding matters. The Spurs need to be aiming for the 4th seed. God, you're a shitty poster.

[Legacy]

Your posts are the same regurgitated, repetitive shit, fatass.

I guess you haven't been on this site lately to call me a shitty poster :lmfao we all know the Spurs are better than getting beat by the Knicks. My point is when the Spurs want to turn it on we are a far better team than the Knicks, and when we do play like a better team going forward, no one will give a shit about losing this game. I love this team. Win or lose. No bandwagon here. So shut the fuck up you stupid fuck. #spursnation

[Legacy]

Eh, go back to eating your jumbo-sized nachos, ******.

That nasty back pedaling tho

[Ginobili3]

Meltdown is on point :lol

[Johnny RIngo]

One loss against the Knicks isn't the end of the world. In fact, Spurs have been dropping games to NYK for a while now. They're like 4-5 against them in the past five years. The team played a shit game and Pop's awful rotations didn't make matters any easier. Splitter was the only one that showed up it seems.

The Knicks starters all had some flukey good performances too - Amundson's career night on the boards, Bargs looking like Dirk out there, D-Leaguer Galloway outplaying Parker, Shved having a Manu-esque performance. Weird shit all around. Guess you have to expect the best from your opponents if you're the champs but these guys aren't that good.

Three point shooting has been a concern for the team all year. We're incredibly reliant on Green to carry us in that area. We look near unbeatable when he has a great shooting night and pretty awful when he doesn't. Leonard too. When he struggles, the team struggles. Hopefully, these two get it going come playoff time. When they're both on, we're a destructive force. Just gotta hope Parker's heroball doesn't get in the way.

[$pursDynasty]

Bill, are you going to start the next game thread or did this debacle give you pause? That loss was NOT your fault besides you do always supply Melissa pics which is a positive that cannot go unnoticed or denied.

[BillMc]

Bill, are you going to start the next game thread or did this debacle give you pause? That loss was NOT your fault besides you do always supply Melissa pics which is a positive that cannot go unnoticed or denied.

Thanks my friend. I'm 8-2 as a game thread starter, but only 1-2 in the last 3 games. I think I should let someone else have their turn with the game thread. Though I'll be happy to add a Melissa shot or two when its up.

[PingPong]

Do you folks forgot who is the Knicks head coad?

The f*** Derek Fisher!
