Game Thread: Spurs @ Sixers -- Mon. (12/7) - 6:00PM CST (2:00AM Riga Time)

[steeledl]

Now we know what it is like to be the Warriors.

[Silver&Black]

Boban's slam.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CVqxE67WwAE_idF.jpg

I wish that guy's head wasn't blocking his foot....

:lol Did he even jump? :lol

[TXstbobcat]

Red rocket!!!!!!!

[spurs10]

Airball # 5...

[SAGirl]

What I remember is him getting fouled....missing both FTs. Then the next possession getting fouled again...and missing both again.

What game was that?


:lol I'm not calling for a KA trade or anything.
I don't know. I personally only remember the New Orleans game bc it was a close margin. Misses in games like that kind of stay with you.

Games like this you don't remember the next day.

[spurs10]

Boban's slam.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CVqxE67WwAE_idF.jpgGreat picture!!:flag:

[Silver&Black]

That shot is the 6ers season in a nutshell.

Wide open corner 3 airball.

[SAGirl]

Boban should stop fouling to stay on court..he just got his 4th..
Boban's issue is just the TO and yea fouling.
Probably the same as most rookies and new guys.

[r0drig0lac]

Now we know what it is like to be the Warriors.

haha true

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Sean Lee finally got a sack!

[steeledl]

Does your chain hang low does it wobble to the flo? Does it shine in the light? Is it platinum? Is it gold?

[ceperez]

Airball # 5...

Only 5? Thought it was more than 5. Is this Sixers team real??

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Cassel fumbles the snap :bang

[TXstbobcat]

Simmons!!!!!!!!

[r0drig0lac]

dat block

[Silver&Black]

Butler...get that weak shit outta here.

My nigga.

[SpurPadre]

Boban's issue is just the TO and yea fouling.
Probably the same as most rookies and new guys.

Still would never trust him to sniff a second against the Dubs, Cavs, or Thunder.

[FaM0us Skins]

Simmons!

[Raven]

damn :lmao

[SAGirl]

They are so low IQ.
Anderson defending Okafor and they throw a shit shot blocked by RAsual.

[steeledl]

Who yall think has the longest dick on the team tbh?

[Lostwingman]

Well shit, seems I missed the brutal rape.

[sasaint]

Boban back in to pad the stats!

[SAGirl]

Still would never trust him to sniff a second against the Dubs, Cavs, or Thunder.
Small ball will kill him.
76ers don't know how to take care of this issue.

[r0drig0lac]

Pop loves Simmons

[Silver&Black]

Hold em under 70

:wakeup

[Silver&Black]

This is turning into a snuff film....

[dbreiden83080]

One of the local high school teams in Philly might be able to give the squad a run for it's money.

[Lostwingman]

I see I'm not the only one that confuses Butler and Simmons :downspin:

[spursistan]

we are going to pad that point differential pretty good..

[Darius McCrary]

Never seen a team so bad

[SpurPadre]

Small ball will kill him.
76ers don't know how to take care of this issue.

76ers barely know how to tie their shoes. Poor Brett. At least he still has Team Australia.

[TXstbobcat]

Boban slam!!!!!!!!!

[Silver&Black]

:lol Boban giving Bobo a run for my current favorite Spur

[SAGirl]

Pop loves Simmons
As do most of us I think.
I haven't seen a Simmons hate thread yet.

[SAGirl]

Boban!

[weeks]

ANOTHER BOBAN SLAM

[TXstbobcat]

Boban!!!!!!!

[resistanze]

Boban just eating dudes

[Silver&Black]

This is too funny....

Boban with Hakeem post moves.

[vander]

wow these Phila announcers really do love the Spurs

[SAGirl]

Wow Boban this game has been unreal!!!!!
:wow

[steeledl]

Boban is fun to watch but I fear a lot of idiots on here will look too much into this and think he can play against athletic, skilled, good teams..... he would be too much of a liability on defense and offensively those teams would swipe the ball away. Still a nice player to have at the end of the bench.

[TXstbobcat]

Boban and the Spurs putting the Ike Turner beatdown on Philli tonight

[Raven]

damn stauskas with the -40 bads :lmao

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Boban is awesome...



Don't let Skins get in FG range here

[TXstbobcat]

Philli announcers showing Timmy love

[SAGirl]

This is turning into a snuff film....
Been that way since the 2nd Q.

I am only watching to see the guys at the end of our bench.

If I was only interested in the stars of the team (Kawhi, etc.), this game wouldn't be worth watching for its entertainment value.

[elemento]

Man Boban is beasting, it's so much fun to watch.

[steeledl]

Boban is awesome...



Don't let Skins get in FG range here


Bro, we want to lose.... fuck this season, it's over. We aren't beating the Packers. Let's draft as high as possible.

[Silver&Black]

:lol Philly fans wanting Boban to shoot

[Raven]

Boban is fun to watch but I fear a lot of idiots on here will look too much into this and think he can play against athletic, skilled, good teams..... he would be too much of a liability on defense and offensively those teams would swipe the ball away. Still a nice player to have at the end of the bench.
yeah having your opponents shoot over a 7-3 guy is clearly a bad defensive idea

[TXstbobcat]

That airball!! :lmao

[Silver&Black]

I want to win by 50+....call me greedy...I don't care.

[weeks]

wow. i've never seen a team airball so many times in a single game.

even a fan in the background: "oh my god..."

[SpurPadre]

Still a nice player to have at the end of the bench.

THIS. Then again, we've endured years of Bonner against athletic, skilled, good teams so I can't blame the enthusiasm for Boban, tbh.

[steeledl]

Simmons is an attractive dude tbh. Him and Kawhi take away the ugly that Boban and Anderson bring.

[Lostwingman]

AHAHAHAHA THAT AIR BALL

Did you guys hear the guy go "oh my god..." in the background? Brilliant.

[Robz4000]

Fitty

[Darius McCrary]

Simmons is so obviously one of the fastest people on the court

[SAGirl]

Kyle giving a pat in the back to Okafor.
Anyone would feel bad for Okafor this game.

[SpurPadre]

Hope Pop and RC get Brett drunk tonight, tbh.

[Silver&Black]

:tu Simmons

[TXstbobcat]

Simmons!!!!

[elemento]

I usually have a lot of fun reading the comments of the Spurs opponents.

Some quotes from 76ers fans

"Who gave big foot a Spurs jersey?"

"oh god Boban the destroyer back in"

"Man this "Donovic" dude is schooling Okafor lol."

"Boban for OK4, who says no?"

:lol

[Silver&Black]

Hope Pop and RC get Brett drunk tonight, tbh.

I'm good with it...

As long as RC isn't driving.

[TXstbobcat]

Boban!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Silver&Black]

Boban the GAWD

:lol Sixers fans cheering

[Darius McCrary]

Philly crowd loves Boban

[Raven]

great finish..

[weeks]

god damn marjanovich. god. damn.

[vander]

lol the phily fans cheering Boban

[Lostwingman]

BAHAHAHAHA
I fucking love Boban!

[From Downtown]

So we just won a game by 51...nothing to see here

[sasaint]

I want to win by 50+....call me greedy...I don't care.

With that Boban block, you got your wish.

[FaM0us Skins]

Boban

[TXstbobcat]

18 - 4 :flag:

[ceperez]

Sheesh... what a beat down!

[Robz4000]

:lmao Boban feasted on the Sixers

[Lostwingman]

lol the phily fans cheering Boban

How can you not cheer the guy?

[From Downtown]

Everybody loves Boban

[resistanze]

Pop's face after the Boban fadeaway :lmao

[james evans]

i think I need to get a Marjonovic jersey.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Finally got a first down.... Witten

[Silver&Black]

Spurs win by fitty1...119-68

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

[weeks]

we just set a franchise record with our third stringers on the backs of that poor team.

[james evans]

Pop's face after the Boban fadeaway :lmao
i need a gif of that haha

[Silver&Black]

With that Boban block, you got your wish.

:danceclub

[ceperez]

wow. i've never seen a team airball so many times in a single game.

even a fan in the background: "oh my god..."

I have never seen an NBA play this badly.

[steeledl]

yeah having your opponents shoot over a 7-3 guy is clearly a bad defensive idea

Having a tall guy ≠ being good at defense. 6'10 skilled defender > 7'3 guy who is not a good defender. The reason he fouls so much isn't aggression.... it is offensive players getting him out of position and off balance.

[BatManu20]

Boban is a legend

[ace3g]

I guess we should send Boban up to Austin for 2 games more often...

[Silver&Black]

LAKERS LOST TO THIS TEAM
:lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao

[UNT Eagles 2016]

1,000 receptions for Witten!

[BatManu20]

Largest victory in Spurs' franchise history.

[ninjaskrzypek]

Soooo glad I bought the League pass for the first time this year. I just love this team from top to bottom. Boban is becoming legend already. That Sixers crowd was screaming for him every time he had the ball. And that last shot to put them at 51, my god. Mom asked me what I wanted for Xmas and like every year I say nothing. It is now going to be a Maronovich jersey. That I will be wearing when they visit Milwaukee.

[SAGirl]

we just set a franchise record with our third stringers on the backs of that poor team.


I guess we should send Boban up to Austin for 2 games more often...

I have to look up the highlights of the game where he allegedly broke the backboard.

[bluebellmaniac]

Is there an online replay? PM me if so.

[Arcadian]

This shall go down in history as... The Boban Game

[r0drig0lac]

Boban for president ....this 76ers team it is the worst team in NBA history

[vander]

wow. i've never seen a team airball so many times in a single game.

even a fan in the background: "oh my god..."

and I think I heard the Philly announcer chuckle, followed by a couple seconds of silence

[ceperez]

I guess we should send Boban up to Austin for 2 games more often...

Need to send him down to Austin again, so he can score like 50 points.

[BatManu20]

LAKERS LOST TO THIS TEAM
:lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao

[cjw]

For all the good Boban does on the offensive end, he's a huge work in progress on defense. I know +/- is overrated, but there's a reason he and Bonner were the only guys in single digits vs. everyone else +17 or better. He fouls like crazy and isn't a rim defender. Only two defensive boards in 17 minutes for a giant against the worst shooting team in the league.

[Johnny RIngo]

:lmao Boban feasted on the Sixers

To be fair, everybody has career highs against Philly. I remember Austin Daye looking like Klay Thompson against the Sixers two years ago.

[TXstbobcat]

LAKERS LOST TO THIS TEAM
:lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao :rollin :lmao



Kobe :lmao

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Boban had 18 points!! :lmao

[Lostwingman]

and I think I heard the Philly announcer chuckle, followed by a couple seconds of silence

Yea I heard it too. It was like a second or two after the guy behind him went "oh my god...".

[weeks]

LMA had 26 points in 22 minutes. that's pretty impressive.
hope he brings this confidence going forward when we go back to playing NBA teams

[SpurPadre]

I'm good with it...

As long as RC isn't driving.

Also gotta make sure Drake isn't there.

[HI-FI]

I gotta give Philly crowd props, that was great they were cheering on Boban.

Weren't there mostly Spurs fans in the stadium?

and simmons continuing to play well, after a bad pre season and a couple of bad regular season games, other than his jumpshot this guy is ready to contribute now imo

[HI-FI]

quite a few Spursfan there and I'm sure they were the most vocal but Bill said Philly fans were cheering as well.

yep, he can certainly drive, if shooting is his only problem that's fine we have Chip for that. Important thing is he has raw talent and a knack for getting to the rim and hustles on defense, too. :toast

[Kawhitstorm]

Boban will be fine since he will at best be playing against 2nd string big men in garbage time. His job is to hold the lead so the starters don't have come back in to close the game, tbh.

[Lostwingman]

Boban will be fine since he will at best be playing against 2nd string big men in garbage time. His job is to hold the lead so the starters don't have come back in to close the game, tbh.

I'll be content if he's our Enes Kanter with better defense and slightly worse offense.

[BatManu20]

I gotta give Philly crowd props, that was great they were cheering on Boban.

Not since Rocky has the City of Brotherly Love been so inspired by an athlete.

[Kawhitstorm]

I'll be content if he's our Enes Kanter with better defense and slightly worse offense.

Kanter can't even pass:lol, he's just a better PnR player/offensive rebounder.

Mah nig.

Thanks for that, S&B :toast

[SnakeBoy]

lol I stay out of the personal on these boards.
Too much trolling.
But since you asked nicely: I will oblige, maybe a little bit. lol
He looks like such a nice kid that I am endeared to him a little bit. I think everyone hates him too much, maybe that is how he got on my soft spot.

But he hasn't looked good in this game at all, I will give you that. When even Bonner is driving to the rack you know Kyle is stuck in some twilight zone of hesitation and indecision.

I would like to see him more aggressive offensively but even in this game Pop probably would have pulled him for it. I don't know why Pop has him on such a short leash offensively, maybe he just wants him to develop his defense. Anyway Pop just said he thought Kyle played a "fantastic" game so Kyle's giving Pop what he wants, whatever that is.

[still.focused]

I watched the PHI feed for this game to not hear endless Spurs praise for beating up on chumps
The announcers opened the 3rd qtr interviewing Jerry Colangelo whom Philly just hired
They didnt talk about the actual game that was going on until like 7min left in the 3rd qtr
How is it that the Sixers are so bad their announcers find better things to do than call the action on the floor
I was truly baffled

Sidenote: Johnathan Simmons has tunnel vision & a putrid jumper

[SAGirl]

I would like to see him more aggressive offensively but even in this game Pop probably would have pulled him for it. I don't know why Pop has him on such a short leash offensively, maybe he just wants him to develop his defense. Anyway Pop just said he thought Kyle played a "fantastic" game so Kyle's giving Pop what he wants, whatever that is.

I am convinced offensively Pop just wants him to distribute, and to work hard on the defensive end, and he's done both things well enough.
Thanks for sharing Pop's perspective. I will look it up.

[Mel_13]

They'll have his early Bird Rights.

Sorry, that's not right. The Gilbert Arenas rule will apply, like with Jeremy Lin, and the Spurs will be able to make Boban a restricted free agent.

[ElNono]

I gotta re-watch the game... we had such a blast... Philly is always special for some reason (besides they suck). Chatted with Gino briefly before the game, he signed a ton of stuff for all the fans.

Really, really good time. Plus we won by a bunch :D

:flag:

Pop's interview on the game:
http://www.foxsports.com/southwest/video?vid=581841475948

He thought both Simmons and Anderson were fantastic on both ends.
We all know how cryptic Pop is.
A few other tidbits there about Boban and Lamarcus.

[Robz4000]

I gotta re-watch the game... we had such a blast... Philly is always special for some reason (besides they suck). Chatted with Gino briefly before the game, he signed a ton of stuff for all the fans.

Really, really good time. Plus we won by a bunch :D

:flag:

Y'all talk about anything interesting (nothing personal of course)?

Thanks for sharing these pictures ElNono

How impressed were you with Boban?
To have seen that live from such seats?

"Boby"

Someone needs to get taken out back and beat with a switch.

Not much really, it was very brief, we had a couple Italian fans in the crowd wanting to jump in and get some pictures with him (which he obliged). Just that we're hoping to see him next month in San Antonio and hopefully next year again...

We had really nice seats, but not as good as previous times, tbh... It was nice he came around to where we were and said hello.

He looked great, but I gotta rewatch the game, tbh... there were some Sixers fans next to us who were really impressed, but then again, they've been struggling for a while.

Obviously not.

Shit just trying to do a good deed and get my hitch on. My bad.

Was thinking of driving up from Virginia but its finals week. Watched the Spurs broadcast on League Pass but definitely sounds like this one is worth a rewatch with the 76ers broadcast.

[Fireball]

Just was able to watch the game ... one of the most enjoyable games ever ... Spurs totally annihilated the trap game sixers

LMA dominating
TP dominating
Boban dominating

one minor point though: Kawhi did not get the ball :cry

[Fireball]

and did Manu give a salute to Nono there in the last few minutes of the game?

[ElNono]

Lots of Spursfan in the arena, per par.... place erupted when Boban threw down that dunk

[Fireball]

yeah the buzz in the arena when Boban had the ball is just crazy

:tu Thanks

Got a Pop interview by any chance?.....can't find it.

EDIT: Nvm Bill..I found it:

http://www.foxsports.com/nba/san-antonio-spurs-team

I don't know why it didn't show on your link when I first clicked on it..............

[popdagreat]

bobby ftw

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Lol Spurs jumped from 9th in offensive efficiency to 3rd after this game.

[ceperez]

Are the Lakers a team that the Spurs should embarrass like the Sixers?

[travis2]

Sidenote: Johnathan Simmons has tunnel vision & a putrid jumper

Noticed that too. Like clockwork...pass to Simmons, Simmons drives to the basket, regardless of traffic or open teammates. It's like he is still in summer league trying to score his way on the team.

Thanks for posting that. I didn't get to see it. I liked it when the reporter said that "Boban was a crowd favorite out there", and Pop just gives him that look. Also liked Pop's comment about Brown - "He's a hell of a coach. It just isn't a fair contest, talent wise. It's ridiculous." For his sake, I hope the Sixers will actually do something with all these draft picks they've piled up.



"Boby"

Maybe you don't know it, but those guys didn't make up "Boby". That is his nickname in Europe, and has been for years. They were just repeating it. No need to beat them with a switch.

That's his strength and the Spurs need his driving ability. I love that type of player. I am happy that he is getting to the rack while also handling the ball a bit better now. That's exactly what I wanted Kawhi to do more of, but it doesn't seem like Kawhi is anywhere near the penetrator Simmons is. This team needs more of that. Getting to the rim and drawing fouls. That is a great thing IMO. He just needs to work on his defense first (to stay on the court), jumper and keep improving his ball handling. If he does all this, then I think he could be a real good player off the bench for us.

Speaking of his jumpshot - his form kinda looks different to me compared to how it looked in Summer League. I think he's been working on his jumper with Chip as I think his form looks a little better. Hopefully Chip can help him become a decent shooter.

Yup, he was driving in traffic and picking up the fouls. He took 8 free throw attempts.

Spurs rookies will have their jump shot as a work in progress. That is what they pay Chip to do. Take a guy like Leonard and make him into a 50% 3P shooter.

I don't have a problem with his aggression and picking up fouls. And he is a good penetrator, something the Spurs are in sore need of.

What I am concerned about is him becoming a black hole. Many of those drives were right into traffic. Some of them he made work, others he didn't. In those cases I think he needs to think about moving the ball instead of auditioning for a spot.

[Dex]

Lol Spurs jumped from 9th in offensive efficiency to 3rd after this game.

That's bonkers. :wow Their efficiency rankings are through the roof right now.

Spurs 2nd in Assist Ratio, 1st in Def. Rebound Rate, 2nd in overall Rebound Rate, 2nd in Effective FG%, 4th in True Shooting %, 3rd in Offensive Efficiency, and 1st in Defensive Efficiency by a good margin.
