Game Thread: Spurs vs Suns -- Wed. (12/30) - 7:30PM CST (3:30AM Riga Time

[BatManu20]

Last Spurs game of 2015. At home to take on a struggling Suns team who sits at 11-21 and have lost 5 in a row. Timmy is listed as questionable with a sore right knee. Everyone else is expected to play tonight. Let's get it.

Batmanu has a high win % with his game threads, it would be nice if BillMc or other ST enthusiasts could post some more pics of the hot Spurs announcer, dig up some Melissa classics or maybe some of the hotter current Silver Dancers.

Spurs can win by 50 but if Kawhi only gets 20 shot attempts, blow up the team.

Agree, after that Delladova debacle. Jesus

[DPG21920]

Preparing myself for the Bryce Cotton game accordingly, then.

Yup - It wouldn't be a total shocker either. He had a few really good games with UTA so he's proven he can do it in spurts.

Pop buying Timmy a random week rest while he can..he will be needed more when the schedule takes a tricky turn starting mid-January..

[TheGreatYacht]

Bryce Cotton will shit on Paddy, sadly. PJ "nacho cheese" Tucker is a scrub, Kiwi better go off

[rasuo214]

Pop just secretly wants to see more of Boban while also giving Timmy some rest.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Love the Timmy rest and PT for Boban.

BOBAN SMASH!!

[Canyonero]

Go espuelas. Start Boban.

[Spurtacular]

I usually watch all the Spurs games the full way through. But with this being a gimme win and GS at Dallas; I'll be checking that out some.

Curry is out..Spurs with chance to pull one game back from GS..

I'm not that high on Dallas; but they're usually tough at home. I'd give them odds if Curry is out.

[Mel_13]

No Timmy in the layup line.

So Boban!

[Mel_13]

Looks like Butler is the second inactive.

[DPG21920]

Calling it now: This is the Danny Green breakout game. He hits 5+3's IMVHBVIO

[GSH]

No Timmy in the layup line.

So Boban!


You don't usually get that emotional about players - especially bench guys. :tu
It's hard not to like Boban, huh?

Yeah. The place goes nuts when he gets in. With Timmy out we don't have to wait until garbage time.

[From Downtown]

GO SPURS GO

[Nathan89]

Yeah. The place goes nuts when he gets in. With Timmy out we don't have to wait until garbage time.

Yeah, I was at the last game and every time he scores the place reacts to like it Vince Carter just dunked on someone. I can't blame the crowd because I partook in the over reactions.

Were you at that game? He was just crushing it for a while. It had to have been fun to be part of that crowd.

[DPG21920]

Devin Booker vs Danny should be fun. Booker hasn't done much this year with a lack of PT, but he's had some eye popping moments where he looks like he could be damn good.

Very interested to see him play a full game.

[100%duncan]

Lma fucking sucks

[GSH]

LOL... LMA the brick mason to start the game. Those two FTA's would make Dwight Howard cringe.

[TXstbobcat]

Tony and 1!!!!!!

[Ron Swanson]

Nice job, Tony.

[timtonymanu]

LaMarcus Splitter with those FTs

[From Downtown]

MVPARKER

[FaM0us Skins]

Good job Tony

[Ron Swanson]

So, we're not making FTs tonight?

[timtonymanu]

Lol free throws

[LarryDavid]

So is TD's knee really hurt or is Pop just getting him some extended rest?

[sasaint]

The rim hates Danny.

[Ron Swanson]

With that raise, you'd think Danny could buy a few buckets.

[SpursFan86]

For the love of fucking god, hit your FTs

[GSH]

That's not fair to Danny. He got stuck with that, and that shot looked like it was down. How the hell did that climb out of the net?

[TXstbobcat]

LMA!!!!!!

[SAGirl]

Active hands by everyone.
What a shot by LmA! lol

[GSH]

WTF... they didn't give LMA the and-1?

[Ron Swanson]

The Queef is in for PHX

[FaM0us Skins]

LMA!!!!!

[TheDoctor]

LMAO at PHX feed: "danny green with a rare miss as usually he make those".

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!!!!

[GSH]

Horseshit! In the NBA that's always an and-1.

[From Downtown]

Tony playing really well :bobo

[DPG21920]

Sean is right: TP is engaged tonight.

[SAGirl]

Love this team!

[100%duncan]

Yrah that non and 1 call was bs

[SAGirl]

That's not fair to Danny. He got stuck with that, and that shot looked like it was down. How the hell did that climb out of the net?

TBH I actually like Danny going for that midrange if there is nothing else. Much better, and good adjustment. That might as well have gone in. No dribble/gasp! or TO.

[Kawhitstorm]

I usually watch all the Spurs games the full way through. But with this being a gimme win and GS at Dallas; I'll be checking that out some.

Meet too; we'll see if Walton can hold his own against Carlisle now Curry is out.

[RGMCSE]

Were you at that game? He was just crushing it for a while. It had to have been fun to be part of that crowd.

I just want to say that I was at that game and I can confirm boban is a star at the att. I cheered the loudest when boban went off!!!

[loveforthegame]

If only Leonard would stop chucking.

[pgardn]

Oh Danny...

[Kawhitstorm]

So is TD's knee really hurt or is Pop just getting him some extended rest?

Pop is slowing phasing him out now that Boban has emerged:lol

[SAGirl]

That backdoor cut is getting Danny, twice now, just the first one the guy missed it.

[emanueldavidginobili]

KL the only spur not to shoot yet

[FkLA]

smh Enrique in stat pad mode, Kawhi aka the best player on the team with 0 FGAs

[TXstbobcat]

West!!!!!!!

[FaM0us Skins]

Airball lol

[SAGirl]

D.West!!

[TXstbobcat]

LMA!!!!!!!

[GSH]

Man, you really have to hate DWest. I mean, so what if he has a mid-range game?

[TXstbobcat]

Verde from Leonard!!!!!!!

[100%duncan]

Im fine with kawhi not getting any now as long as LMA gets going.

Kl to Dg!

[Ron Swanson]

Green makes one!

[From Downtown]

A DANNY GREEN DUNK

[sasaint]

What a play at the rim by Kawhi!

[DPG21920]

Perfect by TP. The first opportunity for that was a little off spacing wise with a defender close. He did it again, drew the defender and did a perfect pass.

LMA, no hesitation (which is key) swish.

[GSH]

That backdoor cut is getting Danny, twice now, just the first one the guy missed it.

Danny fell asleep on that one, no doubt. I was just about to comment that he was playing well, too.

[TXstbobcat]

LMA!!!!!!!!!!

[100%duncan]

LMA :tu

[KenziE]

Can somebody pm me a link pls im on my mobile tho appreciate any help tnx tnx

[SAGirl]

Leonard block leads to a Danny throwdown lol
that has to be connection/play of the game!

smh Enrique in stat pad mode, Kawhi aka the best player on the team with 0 FGAs

If we win who cares...

[loveforthegame]

Best player without a shot attempt. :lol

[Ron Swanson]

lol Chandler

[GSH]

Green makes one!


Oh, holy shit I'm glad Danny didn't miss the dunk. The meltdown would have been painful.

[Uriel]

Holy shit Verde :wow

Yes. I hate that fucking commercial.

Spacing seems much better when Timmy and LMA are not on the floor at the same time. Looks good this game.

[SpurPadre]

Ah, it's always fun watching our Spurs fuck the Suns in the ass.

[Diego20]

link to watch it online?

[FkLA]

If we win who cares...

Yeah who cares if the development of the present and future of the franchise is stunted. :rolleyes

[Ron Swanson]

Free throws not so free tonight.

[100%duncan]

Spacing seems much better when Timmy and LMA are not on the floor at the same time. Looks good this game.

Yeah cos west is a threat on the midrange. No one respects TDs shot anymore

[GSH]

Yes. I hate that fucking commercial.


By the fourth quarter last game we were beating our heads on the coffee table. And they've started with it again this game.

[DPG21920]

Whewww, that move from Knight on Patty

Kawhi with 2 unlucky rolls, glad he got the 3 finally.

[FkLA]

Enrique out and the best player on the team finally sees the ball. :lol

[$pursDynasty]

Great game except for FT shooting

[FaM0us Skins]

KL!

[Ron Swanson]

Boban!

[emanueldavidginobili]

KL 4 FGA two minutes after TP sits down lol

[100%duncan]

Atleast kawhi dont brick them freebies

[Mnky]

The spurs are looking so smooth right now. They're going to be a force come playoff time. No one is going to want to play them.

[SAGirl]

Suns get ready for Boban!

[GSH]

How does Aldridge only have 3 boards? When he took down that last one I thought it must be at least 6. Nice 8 points already, though.

[DPG21920]

Pretty much one screen and SA gets anything they want.

[100%duncan]

Gday mate

[$pursDynasty]

Enrique out and the best player on the team finally sees the ball. :lol
I love the Kingslayer, but if TP took 3 shots in a row the knew would howl even if he hit them all

[TheGreatYacht]

Kawhi needs to learn how to fall tbh :lol

[100%duncan]

Very very good defense tonight. Wow.

[From Downtown]

That steal...

[timtonymanu]

Domination so far. Loving it.

[FaM0us Skins]

Great play by Patty

[SAGirl]

Spurs really active hands and defense.

[loveforthegame]

Manu active hands. :tu

[Ron Swanson]

Manu with another steal

[r0drig0lac]

what a defense

[FkLA]

Kawhi must hate playing with that fatass PG. Clearly holding him back.

[100%duncan]

12 pts :lmao

[GSH]

All right. I want to see Boban shoot a 3 tonight. I don't care - I just want to see him shoot one.

Did you see that clip of him knocking them down in the pre-game?

[SAGirl]

Wow, what a blitz.

[From Downtown]

Not bad,not bad...:lol

[Diego20]

KL with a +20 :lol

[sasaint]

All right. I want to see Boban shoot a 3 tonight. I don't care - I just want to see him shoot one.

Laying odds he makes it - especially tonight!

[FaM0us Skins]

Manu!!

[Vokun]

BEST 1st quarter of the season tbh :flag:

[Mnky]

Spurs winning 32-12, spurfan complaining about shot choice. :lol
No way these are all adult accounts.

[SpursFan86]

Spurs winning by 20 at the end of the 1st but Kawhi only has 3 FGA :madrun

[FkLA]

I love the Kingslayer, but if TP took 3 shots in a row the knew would howl even if he hit them all

His PPG and FGAs have gone down considerably in December. Enrique needs to chill the fuck out and help develop the future of the franchise.

Maybe it wasn't a joke.

I read that. I thought to make a thread about it, but I had already started two, and din't want to seem like I was spamming.

I had heard that before from TP. It is a real thing. I remember last December when everyone was extremely overplayed in those triple OT game, there was a Dec. game against the Mavs that Pop played only 8 guys, including the rookie Anderson, the scrubs Ayers and Daye.... Guess who was the one guy leading that crew? Diaw, played like 30 mins.

At that point I thought, yea Pop is keeping Diaw in a real work-out schedule.

[Horry Hipcheck]

How long before the Mavs collapse and blow this lead they've opened up on GSW?

Mavs trying to avenge their 2007 loss to the Warriors:lol
What's going on? Mavs winning?

[sasaint]

I have to think this Suns team is tanking at this point.

Yeah, Hornacek's is gone. Bet we see more of Ray this game than the entire season to date. We don't have enough scrubs to play to keep this respectable for Jeff.

[keeferob25]

I have to think this Suns team is tanking at this point.

Agreed

Bobo :bobo

[cutewizard]

Borissssssss

[Darius Bieber]

What's going on? Mavs winning?

Curry's out

[Kawhitstorm]

What's going on? Mavs winning?

Mavs killing them 1-on-1 & Warriors look out of sorts offensively without Curry. To be fair, no Barnes/Curry/Ezeli/Barbosa for the Warriors.

[cutewizard]

Incredible boris

[Nathan89]

Were you at that game? He was just crushing it for a while. It had to have been fun to be part of that crowd.

Yeah it was great. I was hyping every basket of his to my brother. He just kept making good plays so it just kept building throughout the night. Especially because I said I can't wait to see Boban before the game.

[GSH]

I love watching Boban move to avoid the defensive 3. So many guys just get sloppy and hope it doesn't get called. His presence in there is disruptive, even when he's not filling out the box score.
