[SanDiegoSpursFan]

LMAO

[NASpurs]

The big 3 get all together after that Timmy play. Gotta love it. :tu

[PingPong]

Quietly, Timmy made 29 points. Is it one more the oldest player to...?

[tim_duncan_fan]

Seriously, Tim, why not just make the point blank shot and seal the game? We're lucky these refs are retards.

Great game from him overall though!

[Cane]

:hat:flag:

[703 Spurz]

Parker and Green 1 for 14. Cocksuckers need to do better than that.

[Robz4000]

Duncan is a God

[Silver&Black]

Harden with game winning lay up coming up. Or a foul and 2 fts for the win.

Sorry for your loss tonight Bieber....

[ViceCity86]

Timmy the legend

[SupremeGuy]

HE GOT NOTHING BUT ARM :cry

[barakz21]

Tim, you the real MVP.

[cjw]

There were three MVPs on the floor tonight. No, not the ones in silver and black (21, 9 and 2). The three in gray. Thank god they didn't call that last foul.

[HI-FI]

holy canoli. Timmy, never stops even after a mistake.

[The Reckoning]

perfect ending to that game

[Nathan89]

Gif of Tony getting pumped for Timmy's block. I don't like Tony's contribution but some idiots on this board take shit to another level and nitpick everything.

[neboat]

how come kawhi kept on letting harden drive left??

[SupremeGuy]

Damn. Sucks that we won't get postgame reaction and shit. :lol

[Beaverfuzz]

[james evans]

great block. 3rd place

[vander]

I thought Tim got some arm on that block, but whatever.

[ViceCity86]

This is one of many reasons why NBA tv sucks.Why dafuck are you showing the Lakers Wolves game?

[Budkin]

Tim Duncan. :hat

[Cry Havoc]

Reddit servers just shattered because of that ending. :lol

[The Reckoning]

seriously though how can you be a professional and not make a majority of your free throws. pop going in raw on players without fundamentals.

[milkyway21]

switching to Jazz vs Memphis
Who is leading?

[phyzik]

50+ FT for the Rockets.... Fuck them and their fans with a splintered baseball bat if they bitch about this loss. Dont care if we were hacking them, make your freebies, its the fucking NBA.

[TXstbobcat]

Just switched to the Jazz game! Down by 2 against the Grizzlies

[SpurPadre]

lol needing @ needing hack a smith and a no call foul at the end to win.

What about when we ass raped your team Wednesday?

[james evans]

Drexler's commentary tonight was fucking awful

[cjw]

switching to Jazz vs Memphis

Nah, I need Wolves vs Lakers. A bit more relaxing.

[Warlord23]

Once he got the ball and altered the shot,it didn't matter that he got some arm later

[Horry Hipcheck]

clutchfans must be exploding :lol

Oh, they are. A few acknowledge that the Rox missed almost half of their 50+ FT attempts and Harden finished with 14 points, but most are calling this the great train robbery.

[CP48107]

Rocket announcers drove me crazy with their comments, especially drexler. He talked as if Rocket has won the last 10 championship.

[Steve-O-Matic]

I just freeze-framed it on DirecTV with my Genie and it CLEARLY shows Duncan tipping the ball with his fingertips before he hits Harden's arm. Absolutely no doubt about it.

[Agloco]

TIM FUCKING DUNCAN

This x 1000000000000000000000000

[Fireball]

lucky to win the game ... Pop killing all rhythm for the 2nd unit with that hack job and Kawhi ball hogging in the 4th

[Sense]

I love that nbatv cut the commentators as they were talking shit about the ending of that... it made the ending even better.

[NASpurs]

This was fucking insane.

Usually I like to rewatch games later or the next day... yeah I'm not watching this one. :lol

[FromWayDowntown]

It was a foul. But that officiating crew was guessing most of the night. Guessed wrong on that one.

[hitmanyr2k]

I thought Tim got some arm on that block, but whatever.

He got ball first. That's all that matters.

[mclinejr]

Shame on spurstalk for giving up on our guys.

[spursparker9]

Nah, I need Wolves vs Lakers. A bit more relaxing.

Finish Memphis vs Jazz and you can catch Lakers vs T-Wolves at start of 3rd Q

[703 Spurz]

lol needing @ needing hack a smith and a no call foul at the end to win.

Because Wednesday didn't happen two days ago huh?

[SASdynasty!]

Tim is such a GOAT

[beirmeistr]

even tho I could not see the game, that guy Shoeining sure made it exciting on the radio. Ill enjoy the replay on NBATV

[Horry Hipcheck]

Shame on spurstalk for giving up on our guys.

I thought most posters did a pretty good job of shrugging off the early deficit and stuck with it.

[Fireball]

Drexler's commentary tonight was fucking awful

he is the worst of all ... surpassed Tommy from Boston easily

[spursparker9]

Who is leading?

Memphis by 2.

1min left in 3Q

[BatManu20]

Working late tonight so didn't get to watch the game.. But been watching the gamecast and sweating my tits off. What a Win. Love this team. Sounds like there was some controversy as well. Gutsy performance by Timmy. Now got to take care of business the rest of the way. No time for a let down.

[SASdynasty!]

Shame on spurstalk for giving up on our guys.
If this forum was a pro team, it would be the ST Cliffjumpers.

Jazz only down two late in the third.

spurs finally win a close one, phewww

Jazz is playing like play-off basketball against Memphis.

They're a classy franchise.

If it was a foul I'm sure Harden would've bitched and moaned tbh.

[Silver&Black]

On a whole new planet of homerism, tbh. It was horrible and funny and sad.

What I don't get is this...

Normally when a game is on NBATV...they tell the commentators that this is a national audience....try to cut back on the homerism. Guess they didn't get the memo...

[milkyway21]

Let's just be happy..Parker won for the Spurs the other night.

GO SPURS GO!!!!!

:turn agree

[ViceCity86]

Need Grizzlies to lose twice,cuz I'm not convinced at all the Rockets are running the table.

That last game is gonna be a bitch vs Pelicans,if they need the win.Davis came back in that game.

Should crush the Suns.

[ViceCity86]

Jazz up 5

[TXstbobcat]

Jazz by 5 over the Grizzlies

Even though we went 3-1 against them, I still wouldn't mind avoiding the Rockets in the playoffs. I think we'd win, but it would be an exhausting series.

Yep, it would be tough. Every match up 2-7 could be exhausting, but I'd rather face McHale vs Carlisle.

Jesus Christ Clyde Drexler was unbearable that game. And I thought Sean was bad.

[lofds]

Jesus Christ Clyde Drexler was unbearable that game. And I thought Sean was bad.Fucking hell, I was about to smash my screen listening to his bullshit. Sean's got nothing on Clyde and whoever the hell his friend is. Most league pass games give home and away options but not this one. It was damn painful. I felt like I was in the arena with the homer commentary.

That was the most intense game I've watched since the NBA finals I reckon. Glad to get away with that ugly win.
