Game Thread: Spurs @ Heat -- Tue. (1/9) -- 7:00PM CST (3:00AM Riga Time)

[NASpurs]

Blackside :lmao

[Ron Swanson]

Whiteside is outta here.

[RD2191]

Lol Whiteside

[Silver&Black]

He Gone!!!!

[SAGirl]

Despite the rationalization, you are still excommunicated. :lol. I am not a Kyle fan, but a Spurs fan. I want us to keep better players. If you want to trade Kyle and help the Spurs, at least get better value than MCW.

I have never proposed he be traded. Others have been trying to trade him away all season for a guard. The whole thing is purely academic though, bc Spurs really like him and pop will not bench Tony or Patty so it's pointless.

If Kyle is traded though I can think of worse franchises for him to go to, so it's fine. That is all I was saying. Never said let's do it.

[BatManu20]

Whiteside is a mental midget

[steeledl]

lol Whiteside is a soft nigga.

[r0drig0lac]

lmao whiteside is a idiot

[DPG21920]

[SpursFan86]

Boban in Whiteside's head :lmao Piece of shit.

[sasaint]

Yes, he is. He has played like shit all year.

No, the first two months, Diaw was great! He just went down the toilet in December.

[SPURt]

Wow! Way to get pull Whiteside into the dumbass zone Boban.

[808]

[vander]

[BatManu20]

Whiteside is a mental midget

[808]

Reminds me of when Baynes got Howard ejected. These mental midgets...

[benefactor]

Blackside :lmao

[sasaint]

Good call - just too reckless.

Don't think it was recklessness.

[SAGirl]

I have had distractions at home saw the Whiteside ejection. How has Boban been I really wanted to pay attention but been unable.

[TXstbobcat]

Leonard!!!!!

[loveforthegame]

Damn Leonard. :worthy:

[r0drig0lac]

Kawhi Jordan

[Ron Swanson]

Kawhi is so deadly with that move

[NASpurs]

Welcome back Kawhi

[SupremeGuy]

Kawhi's turnaround is sick.

[Silver&Black]

B:wowsh

[DPG21920]

Jack Reacher - geez Simmons.

[SPURt]

Bosh just got on Sports Center

[Silver&Black]

Jonathon "Errors" Simmons

[loveforthegame]

Kawhi with the steal!

[BatManu20]

Simmons lucky there.

[DPG21920]

Don't think it was recklessness.

What do you mean? I think it was intentional and reckless. Even if he didn't hit him, it was emotional and reckless.

[NASpurs]

[EmantheSpursFan]

Immediately when Boban was hit the only spur to stand up on the bench was David West! Gotta love that guy!

[cutewizard]

We need this Danny for the playoffs!!

That Gunn commercial with LMA is so fucking bad. :lol

[DenialTwist]

Jonathon "Errors" Simmons

Simmons wasn't prepared for that pass from Kawhi. It would have been an easy bucket if he didn't fumble it.

[gambit1990]

green did exactly what ginobili did. against miami, in the 4th.

[cutewizard]

Used to be true until Warriors.

Kawhi to LMA!

[r0drig0lac]

oh god!

[sasaint]

What do you mean? I think it was intentional and reckless. Even if he didn't hit him, it was emotional and reckless.

Just in my lexicon reckless and intentional are different. I thought it was intentional not merely reckless. No need to split hairs, though. Guy needed to go.

[808]

This is nice

[loveforthegame]

Leonard. Damn. :worthy:

[DPG21920]

LMA/Kawhi combo is really coming together

*birdman hand rub gif*

Got ya - reckless can imply accidental.

[ironman2886]

Bully ball.

Interesting to note... our guys seem to be starting to have fun being on the court with each other. Good signs going forward.

[Silver&Black]

Gotdamnit Diaw 2.0....

This is what we need from you every game. I need 3-4 of those a game FFS.

[Robz4000]

:bobo

[DenialTwist]

Bully Ball! Nope. It's called Tea Time for Bobo

[SPURt]

Ever since that Finals lost I still don't feel comfortable with a lead in Miami.

[steeledl]

Husband demanding attention with all sorts of stuff ... let's keep it private.... Boban reviews? After the game?

He has played pretty well. This is one of those teams he matches up well with because Whiteside isn't really going to challenge us with his offensive skills/ PnR.

[ironman2886]

They missed a shot.

[DPG21920]

Bad Kawhi. Very choppy handling of the double.

[RD2191]

Lol refs

[HBK]

D-Wade still makes his living at the FT line, just like Harden

[SAGirl]

He has played pretty well. This is one of those teams he matches up well with because Whiteside isn't really going to challenge us with his offensive skills/ PnR.

Butler. Mr. Reliable.

Makes me regret we didn't have this guy his whole career. Gets a week's worth of DNPs then comes into a game and plays like he has been playing all along. Real pro preparation and concentration - like a skilled Bonner, tbh.

[Kawhitstorm]

He dunks with more frequency than Splitter, tbh.

He also doesn't insist on reverse layups when he's wide open & doesn't shoot airball hook shots while be defended by a guard:lol

[wildbill2u]

Very workmanlike game with a good margin of victory using lots of bench.

[SPURt]

I totally forgot McBob was playing for the Heat. What happened there?

[SAGirl]

green did exactly what ginobili did. against miami, in the 4th.
Silver lining. The team was relying too much on Tim and Manu. They needed to gel as a team of their own and sprout their own wings and make their own legend. At the rate we were going the younger or new guys were not going to be ready and the vets would have broken down. It wasn't something they were going yo do voluntarily, step back, but they had to.

Hopefully when the vets come back these guys keep rolling.

[BatManu20]

Not gonna get that 20+ point win after all. This lineup gave it away real quick :lol

[SAGirl]

I totally forgot McBob was playing for the Heat. What happened there?

I'm here tbh, though I didn't say it'd be a sure loss. Verde pleasantly surprised me though, without his play they do lose.

[loveforthegame]

Love seeing Leonard and LMA getting more comfortable together. Future is bright.

[SPURt]

I didn't check the box score till after the game and I would never have guessed Boban scored 11 pts by watching the game. Maybe it's because he gets to the line so much.

[Ron Swanson]

Danny on the 4 point play: Luckily the 3 went in because I probably would have been subbed out.

Husband demanding attention with all sorts of stuff ... let's keep it private.... Boban reviews? After the game?

Boban played pretty well, especially considering his minutes were very meaningful. It seemed like he played more minutes than he did. And it seemed like he didn't shoot the ball as well as he usually does, although I just checked out his stats, and they show he was 3 of 5 from the floor and 5 of 7 from the line. I think the two shots he missed from the floor were shots he usually makes. Hassan hit some athletic shots against him which is to be expected. He showed some good hands, IMHO. Got called for a couple of fouls that I thought were bogus - one on a blocked shot high and one on a steal low. I have just started to understand that as big as he is, Boban is not particularly strong. I mean body strength, although his hands are not as strong as I imagined. He got the ball slapped away from him when he had both hands on it a time or two. He is starting to lose a little of his luster with me. While I still like him, I think he is pretty much at his ceiling. If we did work a trade at the deadline, he would be a guy that I would favor trading over our younger prospects.

Totally aside: I just saw a Simmons highlight when he drove to about 6 feet, pump faked and drained the shot - over Gerald Green, IIRC. A good move for Simmons to use more. He is usually committed to taking it to the rack. A little variety and his game could skyrocket.

LMA is going to feast on Vucevic's turnstile defense & Tony/Patty should be fine since Payton/Napier can't shoot along w/ West not having to hack against Aron Gordon.

Thanks for sharing this!!!!!
Very much appreciate it since I.missed the meaningful part of his minutes (also Simms, but I expect him to do his usual, Boban has been a topic of debate specially bc if his role and possible pay, an issue we don't have with the younger guys.

Also, as an aside you know I am maybe too high on KA, and sometimes I do wonder ultimately about his destination bc playing behind Kawhi he won't get much chances bc Kawhi is a star. He's still a bit of a tweaner but a good kind of tweaner bc he can situationally play both forward spots, unlike other tweaners who are the bad kind bc they cannot play either.

He might be flipped in the future like George Hill but as you say, if you are going to flip him try to get a prize, not MCW. I don't see him traded this season though bc he hasn't reached a point where you think ok this is all he is going to be and no more. He's still getting better and playing inconsistent minutes at different spots and sometimes just filling a role that is not the best suited to his talents. We shall see with him in the future. I'm just saying I am not opposed to him getting traded per second just bc I like him bc I can always catch his games anyways and of the young lotto teams he could go to the Bucks are not the worst.

If you are expecting to get a bonafide rotation player for Kyle then good luck.:lol If you go back & look at his playoff career, CoJo played a total of 301 minutes including just 87 in 2014. MCW is basically going to be asked to play spot minutes just like CoJo.

So, you want to trade one player with plenty of upside in the years ahead that PATFO clearly values for another bad, one-dimensional player when neither one will get more than spot minutes this post-season? I am not expecting to get a rotation player for Kyle at all. I want to keep him because I probably wouldn't get a rotational player for him. But, apparently because you don't like Kyle or because you really like MCW, you want to swap warm bodies who will not play anything but spot minutes. I am saying improve the team if you make a trade. If you want to acquire a rotational player, then at least suggest that we package Kyle with another player or pick to acquire a player who could play more than spot minutes. Neither Kyle nor MCW can put us over the top this season. MCW will never help do that. But Kyle just might in the seasons ahead. Some of us see him as a player that has Boris-type qualities.

Thanks for sharing this!!!!!
Very much appreciate it since I.missed the meaningful part of his minutes (also Simms, but I expect him to do his usual, Boban has been a topic of debate specially bc if his role and possible pay, an issue we don't have with the younger guys.

Also, as an aside you know I am maybe too high on KA, and sometimes I do wonder ultimately about his destination bc playing behind Kawhi he won't get much chances bc Kawhi is a star. He's still a bit of a tweaner but a good kind of tweaner bc he can situationally play both forward spots, unlike other tweaners who are the bad kind bc they cannot play either.

You are welcome. :toast HOWEVER, I am still inclined to excommunicate you (from your own church, isn't it? :wow) LUCY! you got some 'splaining to do:


I am ok with that. I like Anderson, but I can always watch him on the Bucks. I think he would help that team they are struggling something fierce... but to get MCW you have to ship out a PG to open up time for him. Personally I hope we do get a defensive PG. Puzzles me what Pop is doing with Ray when we are getting killed and he doesn't give him a chance.

:nope. Kyle has a lot of potential while MCW has crashed against his reasonably low ceiling.
