Game 2 Thread: Spurs at Clippers 10:30 EST (9:30 CST) Wednesday, April 22

[Budkin]

If we just hit FTs we'd be up 6-7

[Malik Hairston]

These fucking rotations are such garbage, tbh..

[Johnny RIngo]

We have a lead? Here comes Parker to choke it away

As long as Kawhi is in to offset Tony's neg impact, we'll be fine

[Budkin]

finally. clippers are playing terrible defense, san antonio has simply been missing wide open shots.

They can't hit shit on the road tbh

[bklynspursfan]

Gotta finish this quarter spurs style. And not the shitty spurs way.

[Silver&Black]

Bellinelli 4 3333333333333333

[TheGreatYacht]

i rather have ayres on griffin than f'n bonner jesus christ
No

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Did Kawhi sleep with Pops daughter?

[milkyway21]

OMG Duncan doing the damage. Is he going to play 38 min to get us a win?

Come on Spurs!!! DO your part!!!

[TheGoldStandard]

As long as Kawhi is in to offset Tony's neg impact, we'll be fine

Gotta be weary.. If Kawhi hits a few shots Pop may bench him again

[KaiRMD1]

I'm too old for this shit

[KawhiLeonard]

Tim is carrying this team.

[beirmeistr]

What wine is Pop drinking this year? He's lost brain cells.

Thunderbird

[lofds]

We're getting looks from ball movement we didn't have the first game so even though they're not dropping, I'm liking the process.

[Nathan89]

Kawhi should play damn near 40 minutes. Pop is a fucking idiot.

[crc21209]

I am stunned as to how Green and Kawhi arent playing 40+ mins a game.

[SpurPadre]

Ayres is not even an NBA player.

And Bonner is?

[Malik Hairston]

Spurs just need to steal this game and the series is over, tbh..

Clippers' D is awful, they're leaving open shooters on every possession, Spurs just can't make on the road, as usual..

If they go back home at 1-1, where Danny Green shoots 48% from 3 and everybody else makes them, too, it's over..

[Silver&Black]

Did Kawhi sleep with Pops daughter?

No....I heard he did turn her down for an autograph though.

[Slippy]

Hit an open 3. YES!

[TheGoldStandard]

Pop told Kawhi to shave his sideburns... he didn't listen

[DPG21920]

The Spurs offense is slowly but surely wearing the Clips defense down. They are creating much better,cleaner looks. They will start to hit those 3's if they keep gaining momentum there and moving the ball.

The defense is really concerning though. They look way out of sync, keep botching switches (while switching more than I have ever seen) and giving guys open looks or dunks. Clean that up and we are gold.

Spurs are taking care of the ball, getting to the line (please make your damn FT's). They just need the good looks to fall and to clean up things on defense. Concerned about the defense though.

[cjw]

paul hit halh his point when spurs switched on d but yeah watch the box score it tell you every things about the game

He forgets that Paul is -7 and Parker is +6. He relies on one flawed box score line, I'll rely on one flawed box score measure.

Kawhi got some good rest. Plays rest of the half and he's still only at 17 minutes through two quarters.

[pgardn]

Griffin is a matchup nightmare without a fully fit Splitter.

[ElNono]

it's that fucking beard...

[100%duncan]

Gotta be weary.. If Kawhi hits a few shots Pop may bench him again

Tbh

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Kawhi needs more minutes.

[CGD]

We're getting looks from ball movement we didn't have the first game so even though they're not dropping, I'm liking the process.

[100%duncan]

Gotta be weary.. If Kawhi hits a few shots Pop may bench him again

Tbh

[RD2191]

0 pts 1 ast. Best option at PG according to some here.:lol

[Johnny RIngo]

They can't hit shit on the road tbh

Hence why homecourt advantage is so valuable. So many on this site underrate it's importance

[DPG21920]

Just my two cents, but by having Kawhi chase a runner like JJ, my guess he's saving minutes for big 2nd half.

[SpurPadre]

Spurs just need to steal this game and the series is over, tbh..

Clippers' D is awful, they're leaving open shooters on every possession, Spurs just can't make on the road, as usual..

If they go back home at 1-1, where Danny Green shoots 48% from 3 and everybody else makes them, too, it's over..

It would still be nice to get some semblance of TP and Manu to show up at some point, though.

[ontheraise]

After 300 years it s still duncan' s tim no matter what....

[Holden_Caulfield]

that bonner defense :lol

[beirmeistr]

keep the ball moving and hit some shots

[Beaverfuzz]

Another foul on Crawford...this is good!

[Slippy]

Kawhi on bench for extended periods is puzzling. Look how mins paul and blake playing in comparison

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Griffin is a matchup nightmare without a fully fit Splitter.

He looked gassed.

[TDfan2007]

There you go, Kawhi.

[RD2191]

Nice Kawhi

[ElNono]

make freebies, Van Horn

[ontheraise]

If kawhi could have a little defensive impact it'll be great, were is the fuckin defensive player of the year

[emanueldavidginobili]

KL needs to take over

[Brazil]

:lol duncan still carrying his team at 70 y/o tbh

[100%duncan]

Spurs just need to steal this game and the series is over, tbh..

Clippers' D is awful, they're leaving open shooters on every possession, Spurs just can't make on the road, as usual..

If they go back home at 1-1, where Danny Green shoots 48% from 3 and everybody else makes them, too, it's over..
That thought is so sweet and so damn true at the same time. Fuck cmon.

[Baynes]

cant watch. Update me guys with your rants :lol

[Beaverfuzz]

MARCO, what a steal and layup!

[100%duncan]

Spurs just need to steal this game and the series is over, tbh..

[spurraider21]

MARC:lol

[ElNono]

thats an and1!!!

[hitmanyr2k]

Scapegoat!!

[Silver&Black]

Marco. Fucking. Bellinelli.

My nigga.

[RD2191]

Marco baby

[SupremeGuy]

BIG BALLS!

[TheGoldStandard]

Marco playing better D than Green??

[r0drig0lac]

Marcoooo

[TDfan2007]

What a play by Marco!

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Belli actually making 2 good defensive plays in a row WOW

[KaiRMD1]

Beli getting hacked like a motherfucker out there, geez

[Silver&Black]

thats an and1!!!

smh....I know.

[beirmeistr]

beli? wow

[SASdynasty!]

Beli D

[cjw]

MARCO!!!

[spurraider21]

on the previous clips possession leonard did a great job to tip the rebound away from Jordan

[TheGreatYacht]

Ferrari shitting on y'all's five heads :lmao

[Johnny RIngo]

0 pts 1 ast. Best option at PG according to some here.:lol

Unfortunately we have no option at point guard. Tony's a pussy in the post-season, Cojo just sucks, and Patty's in foul trouble

[BatManu20]

Marco's fired up and playing D :wow

[milkyway21]

Pop might be giving less minutes in the 2nd qtr he needs him in the 2nd half in case TD will be in foul trouble

[ontheraise]

beli steppin up and displaying the middle finger to haters

[Cry Havoc]

MARCO!!!!!

[SupremeGuy]

Big Balls throwing the shoulder bumps! No fear!

[ElNono]

Spurs in the bonus, attack the rack

[100%duncan]

Marco gets no respect from the refs.

[cjw]

Marco's fired up and playing D :wow

Except forgetting to close out on Barnes on his bricked 3.

Hack a DJ time?

[313]

The defense is way better this game

[Silver&Black]

Kawhi....

My nigga.

[RD2191]

Kawhi baby

[Johnny RIngo]

Tony lost Paul there

[BatManu20]

Goddamn Tony's defense is awful

[TDfan2007]

Love that Kawhi hook.

[loveforthegame]

Empty stats Leonard. :(

[Kyl3]

nice move Leonard. I like the shot into Jordans gut

[hitmanyr2k]

Kawhi is scoring. Better take him out before he gets in a rhythm.

[Budkin]

Put a hand in Pauls face

[RD2191]

Lol bonner

[RD2191]

Fuck

[milkyway21]

KAWHI !!!!

[Budkin]

nice pass TP

[Kyl3]

Duncan too good

[Silver&Black]

Timmy everywhere....

[BatManu20]

Wtf was that Kawhi,, smh

[TheGoldStandard]

Kawhi smh... just shoot the fucking ball

[KaiRMD1]

These threes just will not happen tonight for us

[RD2191]

Son of a bitch

[ElNono]

fricking Kawhi.... go to the rack!!!

[Budkin]

WTF was that Kawhii?

[SASdynasty!]

Duncan is unreal

[bklynspursfan]

Paul pulled another 360 flop. Hahaha

[100%duncan]

FUCK KAWHI YOU HAD THE FLOATER. FUCK...

[Budkin]

They have no one to guard Kawhii... take it to the fucking hole!

[KawhiLeonard]

BENCH PARKER. He is absolutely useless out there atm

[RD2191]

Kawhi settle down

[spurraider21]

damn... that turnover just lowered Kawhi's fanduel total :depressed

[Nathan89]

Timmy carrying scrubs tbh

[01Snake]

Get TP out. He is bringing NOTHING

[TheGreatYacht]

Kawhi's still learning, he good

[timtonymanu]

Beli with a nice stretch there, I'll give him that.

[itzsoweezee]

I can live with that turnover. Kawhi's been awesome otherwise.

[ElNono]

Time to ISO Tony, see if we can get him going...

[RD2191]

11 pts. Settle down

[loveforthegame]

Van Horn dragging the team down. Better sit another half quarter.

[Texas_Ranger]

lol at the CP 360 flop when Tim set the screen

[TheGoldStandard]

Time to ISO Tony, see if we can get him going...

NO.... No....

[RD2191]

I can live with that turnover. Kawhi's been awesome otherwise.

[Silver&Black]

Want to see Kawhi shoot that.....

I know Timmy is hot right now. But shoot the damn ball...you're the man.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

When's the last time Bonner made a three?

[100%duncan]

That 2nd girl in the kiss cam... id do so many bad things to her

[Nathan89]

Get TP out. He is bringing NOTHING

What's new?

[313]

Get TP out. He is bringing NOTHING

Lol at the thought of cojo out there losing our lead

[look_at_g_shred]

Beli with a nice stretch there, I'll give him that.

[milkyway21]

That's twice DUNCAN has stolen the ball from Griffin tonight..old man river :lmao !!

[look_at_g_shred]

Want to see Kawhi shoot that.....

I know Timmy is hot right now. But shoot the damn ball...you're the man.

[cjw]

BENCH PARKER. He is absolutely useless out there atm

Not really. Offense is running effectively with him out there tonight. Only three TOs in total.

Paul's the best PG in the game, so not fair to compare TP to him.

[Mugen]

please get Bonner out of the game

[Johnny RIngo]

Time to ISO Tony, see if we can get him going...

:depressed Parker isos

[PingPong]

The three PGs with 0 points.
:lol

[TDfan2007]

Tony needs to gtfo. As for Kawhi, he either needs to make that pass earlier or just take the shot. Too much hesitation.

[TheGreatYacht]

Time to ISO Tony, see if we can get him going...
Your game plan is working bruh, a stretch 4 will kill those faggots

[Malik Hairston]

Can't believe Belinelli is playing well in a West playoff game, tbh, never thought I'd live to see the day..

[ElNono]

None of our PGs have scored... we're almost at halftime

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Del Negro is in the game bro

:lol

[crc21209]

TD doing leadership things encouraging Kawhi :tu

[Silver&Black]

:cry Bud :cry

[Beaverfuzz]

Gotta box out a little bit better.

[TDfan2007]

Rebound!

[RD2191]

Can't believe Belinelli is playing well in a West playoff game, tbh, never thought I'd live to see the day..
Has anyone checked on Raven?

[100%duncan]

Reboumding.

[milkyway21]

Parker is running the ball effectively...no pts but ok

[Beaverfuzz]

TIMMUH!

IT'S PRETTY, IT'S SO PRETTY!

[RD2191]

Timmy

[KaiRMD1]

Fucking Timmy!!!!!!

[Silver&Black]

Thanks for the bailout Timmy....

My nigga.

[Johnny RIngo]

:wow playoff Timmy

[BatManu20]

Duncan carrying us. Other guys better show up in the 2nd half.

[Juggity]

If the spurs win this series it will have been entirely because of Tim

[313]

Timmy hanging with the young Fellas

[hitmanyr2k]

Shut up Reggie. Blake hardly ever hits that shot lol.

[RD2191]

Dammit. get stops

[KaiRMD1]

Reggie treating Griffin like he's Kevin Durant, the slurp fest is ridiculous

[Beaverfuzz]

Thanks for the bailout Timmy....

My nigga.

What is a quiche?

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Why does Griffin always make those?

[beirmeistr]

I cant stand thethug barnes but I must admit he hustles like hell

[spurraider21]

duncan's destroying DJ :lol

[Kyl3]

He throws it up, it goes in... always

[01Snake]

TD is fucking BEASTING!!!

[RD2191]

HO LEE SHIT DAT LEGEND

[Silver&Black]

Timmy.....

:worthy: :worthy: :worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

[loveforthegame]

Timmy!! :worthy:

[BatManu20]

Timmy the Gawd :wow

[ElNono]

lol father time

[SASdynasty!]

OMG Duncan

[tmtcsc]

GOAT gonna GOAT.

[100%duncan]

TIIIIIM!!!!!!! CARRY US HOME YOU

[tim_duncan_fan]

Holy shit, Tim Duncan!

Fucking God Mode right now and I love it.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Will we see Kawhi on CP3? Maybe in the fourth?

[milkyway21]

Duncan telling his crew WAKE-UP !!!!

[Pound the rock]

Captain Timmy came to play

[pgardn]

TIMMY
FKN
DUNCAN

[beirmeistr]

feed the old beast

[313]

If the spurs win this series it will have been entirely because of Tim

[Nathan89]

Where's that faggot that wanted to never post Timmy?

[TheGoldStandard]

TD the only one with balls to play... If our defense wasn't shit we would be up 20

[Beaverfuzz]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtE67_Gcilc

[KawhiLeonard]

GOAT

[Johnny RIngo]

Like usual, Timmy steps his game up in the playoffs.

It's too bad we can't say the same for poor Tony.

[TheGreatYacht]

Stat padder on an average team like Kevin Love, tbh..

[Silver&Black]

What is a quiche?

:lmao It's a food that starts with the letter "Q".

AND I GOT 6 MORE BILLY!!!!

[PingPong]

Why is Parker pissed at Manu?

[313]

lol father time

[Budkin]

TIm Fucking Duncan

[lofds]

Fucking love you Timmy!

[Mal]

:wow

[baseline bum]

TD doing leadership things encouraging Kawhi :tu

And Enrique doing shit the bed things like post Achilles Snitch.

[Beaverfuzz]

Oh Tony, well that was a much better shot from you so I'll give you that.

[ElNono]

go back to Tim... fucking heroball

[Budkin]

TP sucks. PERIOD

[Kyl3]

Why does Tony insist on doing that???

[100%duncan]

Wow parker

[01Snake]

WTF Parker???????????????????????????

[ontheraise]

tony need to make those jumper

[Beaverfuzz]

GREAT HALF!

[CGD]

Vintage Tim, loving this. Shows Jordan is a glorified pogo stick

[Johnny RIngo]

:lol Parker jumpshot - less efficient than a Deandre Jordan free throw

[hitmanyr2k]

Whatever happened to the Parker teardrop?

[RD2191]

Crofl piece of shit PG

[TDfan2007]

That was an atrocious shot by Tony. Horrible clock management.

[01Snake]

Why does Tony insist on doing that???

Because he's a fucking idiot.

[baseline bum]

lol father time

Father time turned Parker into Van Exel though tbh

[loveforthegame]

More floaters from Green and long jumpers from Parker. We got this.

[TheGoldStandard]

:lol Parker jumpshot - less efficient than a Deandre Jordan free throw
Or a danny green layup

[Cry Havoc]

I love Ernie, but he's starting to look like a Tim Burton creation.

[BatManu20]

591084543819513856

[ace3g]

TP long midrange jumper...

[FlAVaK]

Where's that faggot that wanted to never post Timmy?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOoEmVvJR48

[timtonymanu]

Parker is such a winner in the playoffs. - Short bus

[resistanze]

Parker is terrible but he's been fairly good at minimising the impact of his terrible play.

[Nathan89]

Tony thought it was a good time to take one of his 38% mid-range shots? Fucking POS.

[noles1983]

why is parker even out there? dude is fucking useless

[r0drig0lac]

completed the first step

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Tony is taking a lot of long jumpers and it really looks like he could get a bit closer. Just a bit too trigger happy at any open looks.

[Perry Mason]

Those shots are open and TP should take them and make them.

[ElNono]

Whatever happened to the Parker teardrop?

buried with his head down his ass

[Texas_Ranger]

Parker just stay in the locker room.

[Kyl3]

Seems like he's afraid to drive and penetrate.

[milkyway21]

If the offense ran through Duncan in game 1 the sane thing, but they tied when he had to sit due to foul trouble...then, Clippers made a run.

[CGD]

Why does Tony insist on doing that???

It was an open shot in a two for one situation. It was the right call.

[TDfan2007]

I don't get it. Timmy runs hard and seals Griffin, then Tony decides to jack up a pullup.

[Cry Havoc]

Tony Parker needs to remarry Eva or something. I mean gawd-dayum.

[ontheraise]

tony has to attempt this one, if he can start hitting those jumper it'll make it a lot easier for the rest of spurs offense

[TheGoldStandard]

2nd half.. Shots need to start falling for Diaw and Green.. Kawhi needs to play less tentative.

[hyhy]

We gotta break the trend of 2-0 series..

[hater]

Tim Duncan

Jesus Christ if we lose this game.

Fuck. If we lose this game for timmy

[Mugen]

solid defense. Keep it up, knock down open shots, and rebound the F'n ball tbh.

[ElNono]

It was an open shot in a two for one situation. It was the right call.

It wasn't anywhere near a 2 for 1, which is why it was puzzling

[milkyway21]

If only they made all of those 3s :(

[baseline bum]

Whatever happened to the Parker teardrop?

Dude is done. This is the Parker we have been watching all season. I thought he regressed badly last year, but this year he has become a liability at least half the games the team plays. The Spurs are really going to have to look hard at salary dumping him this summer.

[Johnny RIngo]

16/4/3/2 - Duncan
11/4/1 - Leonard
7/2 - Manu

Big three doing work.

[HI-FI]

Parker is such a buttfucking quitter this time of year, it's uncanny.

Duncan....words don't do it justice.

[Silver&Black]

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

:td Parker

:tu :tu Timmy

[TheGoldStandard]

Doubt Tim every really gets mad in the locker room but if he just called out some players right now imagine the reaction..

[TDfan2007]

Timmy post-ups, Kawhi post-ops, and motion for our shooters. Anything else is ludicrous.

[apalisoc_9]

16/4/3/2 - Duncan
11/4/1 - Leonard
7/2 - Manu

Big three doing work.

Just look at my sig brah

[timtonymanu]

Good time for Parker to pretend he's hurting and sit the 2nd half.

[lofds]

Good half and missed all those open looks. Even if we don't hit them, they're good shots we're taking.

Seeing so much more penetration and drive and kick.

[DAF86]

Tony's idea of being agressive is settling for 20 foot jumpers?

[313]

Tim Duncan

Jesus Christ if we lose this game.

Fuck. If we lose this game for timmy

Man, it'd be up there with 6

[ontheraise]

you can shit all you want on parker but still we play better when he's on the floor

[Keepin' it real]

I hope Duncan can continue the dominance in the 2nd half, but if he can't, who steps up?

[Nathan89]

Parker is absolute trash but some idiots are going to excuse this because of his "injuries".

[pgardn]

Parker
Boris
Green

Engage. The game has started.

[Nathan89]

I hope Duncan can continue the dominance in the 2nd half, but if he can't, who steps up?

Everyone except Tony has the potential.

[Johnny RIngo]

Dude is done. This is the Parker we have been watching all season. I thought he regressed badly last year, but this year he has become a liability at least half the games the team plays. The Spurs are really going to have to look hard at salary dumping him this summer.

That $45 million extension looks like the worst contract in Spurs history. Going to be even worse when Tony plays for France this summer and comes in tired and fatigued next season,

[phxspurfan]

Leonard, pay attention to how the real max player plays. TD should be getting 30 mil per year

[RD2191]

Parker is such a winner in the playoffs. - Short bus
Lmao

[313]

Tony has played a lot of bad halfs this year, but he had a solid first half tonight

[Pound the rock]

Need some steals from Kawhi

[ElNono]

Don't forget Tony is hurting, tbh.... plus he has to spend a lot of energy guarding Paul

[baseline bum]

That $45 million extension looks like the worst contract in Spurs history. Going to be even worse when Tony plays for France this summer and comes in tired and fatigued next season,

Not even close to the $40 million extension for Jefferson. As shitty as Parker is, he's not Dick by any stretch of the imagination.

[hater]

Tim Duncan.

Jesus Christ if we lose this game for him.

Fuck if we lose this one for timmy
