Game Thread: Spurs @ Rockets -- Sat. (2/27) - 7:00PM CST (3:00AM Riga Time)

[SpurPadre]

I wanna see Simmons have a solid game tonight. I don't see him getting much playing time w/the way Anderson is playing.

And it'll be even less if Manu comes back and if we still get Martin.

[100%duncan]

Good lawd

[BatManu20]

Spurs getting bored with the blowout, getting sloppy

[loveforthegame]

:td

[BatManu20]

Call a timeout. Spurs getting complacent and playing stupid

[100%duncan]

embarassing :lmao

[Arcadian]

Harden: more FGAs than points
Leonard: 2x more points than FGA

[sasaint]

Not a good sequence for Kyle.

Nope. But I always liked Ariza. Could never understand why Lakers let him go.

[100%duncan]

Kiwi cold thanks you fucks

[RD2191]

Come on Kawhi

[Ron Swanson]

Sloppy

[UNT Eagles 2016]

West is just too much of a pushover on D.

[sasaint]

Spurs getting bored with the blowout, getting sloppy

Predictable, tbh.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Gift wrapping them too many easy ones...

[FaM0us Skins]

8-0 run by the Rockets.

Oh we'll we're still up by 23 :lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Nope. But I always liked Ariza. Could never understand why Lakers let him go.
to get Artest.

[Robz4000]

Comeback comin'

[UNT Eagles 2016]

And it'll be even less if Manu comes back and if we still get Martin.
What if we get Martin and cut Ginobili? Who will be the 3rd/4th wings then

[sasaint]

to get Artest.

:lol

[spursistan]

Get the Simmons off the court..Dude has hit the rookie wall pretty hard..let's put this away first..

[BatManu20]

D-West!

[SAGirl]

Wtf! Lack of ball movement ended up in bad possessions by both Kyle and Kawhi.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Rockets arena playing pre 9-11 pop music by P!nk :lol

[timtonymanu]

Get the Simmons off the court..Dude has hit the rookie wall pretty hard..let's put this away first..

Maybe it's why the front office is so interested in Kevin Martin.

[loveforthegame]

Kyle hesitating now. :td

[BatManu20]

Shoot with confidence Kyle. Pop will pull you for that shit

[TheGreatYacht]

Jesus Fat head... "We don't need Martin tho"

[NASpurs]

Anderson is so much better when he plays with instincts.

[sasaint]

Get the Simmons off the court..Dude has hit the rookie wall pretty hard..let's put this away first..

Danny was in foul trouble. That's the only reason he got in this early. Imho.

[SAGirl]

Boris telling Kyle to shoot!!!!!

[100%duncan]

Bobo 0.2

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Nick Van Mills fouling >80% shooter while in the penalty... ugh

[DeRozan m8]

Kyle :bang

[SpurPadre]

What if we get Martin and cut Ginobili? Who will be the 3rd/4th wings then

You're kidding, right? Manu is a made man. He isn't going anywhere, of course.

[loveforthegame]

Why did they go away from Leonard in the post? :pctoss

[Darius Bieber]

Danny was in foul trouble. That's the only reason he got in this early. Imho.

Then put Butler in the game instead. However, he might not be playing since he's getting cut.

[Silver&Black]

MVPatty to Bobo...

My niggas.

[sasaint]

Kyle hesitating now. :td

Hard to understand after his start in this game.

[Ron Swanson]

You're kidding, right? Manu is a made man.

No shit. Manu's not getting cut.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Defense not good in the 3rd quarter after the 9 minute mark... particularly by the bench. :td

[RD2191]

Fuck!

[UNT Eagles 2016]

You're kidding, right? Manu is a made man. He isn't going anywhere, of course.
then who do we cut?

[100%duncan]

No foul for kawhi. Seriously

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Boris -2.0 ...

[100%duncan]

then who do we cut?

Possibly not your best wing off the bench

[sasaint]

Bad fast break turns into FTs for them. Smh!

[RD2191]

Still a game.

[BatManu20]

Kawhi's gotta give that ball up to D-West on the fast break. Should've been a lay up. Instead got nothing

[SAGirl]

Shoot with confidence Kyle. Pop will pull you for that shit
I do believe he got pulled just for that, has to let if fly.

[loveforthegame]

Great. Now Leonard is cold. :pctoss

[FaM0us Skins]

then who do we cut?

I think the Spurs will cut McCallum or Butler

[RD2191]

Gawd dammit

[UNT Eagles 2016]

D-Worst fouling a guard 90 feet from the basket while in the penalty :bang

[spursparker9]

Spur killer

[spursistan]

pathetic collapse by the team..

[BatManu20]

17-3 run by the Rockets

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!!!!

[Silver&Black]

Harden thinking the whistle was coming....

Out of Bounds. Spurs ball.

[SpurPadre]

then who do we cut?

Ginger and Ray.

[BatManu20]

Damn Kawhi

[100%duncan]

Kawhi didnt go for it smh

[sasaint]

No shit. Manu's not getting cut.

Manu getting cut. :lmao

[SAGirl]

Tony!!!

[r0drig0lac]

Harden ..hahaha

[mudyez]

lol harden

[spursistan]

Kawhi should have taken that layup..smh.....terrible execution..

[timtonymanu]

Predictable. Spurs were gonna let up at some point. We'll be fine.

[RD2191]

Feels like a Spurs choke coming tbh.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

SA Shits LOST the 3rd quarter per par... the bench sans Manu is a bunch of mental midgets :pctoss


Gave up a whopping 26 points in the last 9 minutes of the 3rd quarter... :(

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Feels like a Spurs choke coming tbh.
Yep. Rockets outscored Spurs in the 3rd, 26-25.

[sasaint]

I do believe he got pulled just for that, has to let if fly.

Yessir! Don't know why he didn't. Started the game strong and already hit one. His confidence has to be at a high level.

[Robz4000]

What a shitty close to the quarter.

[Silver&Black]

Spurs lead 76-57 going into the last Q...

http://i.imgur.com/9Ib4p1D.png

[SpurPadre]

Possibly not your best wing off the bench

And heart and soul of the team and eventual HOF.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Ginger and Ray.
Bonner isn't going anywhere, if Pop has anything to say about it.

[kuato]

Put freaking Boban in!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spursistan]

So can we infer from Butler lack of minutes in last 3 games that he's getting cut ..if so, then Pop has gone senile and his lovefest with Bonner is worth a private investigation..

[SAGirl]

pathetic collapse by the team..
Agree. Kyle played poorly bc he wasn't aggressive after a failed post up. Has to brush that off. Kawhi also got swarmed and didn't pass, but b4 that, the lineup with TD and LMA was also playing poorly. Overall a meltdown. Lots of film for Pop to show guys. They got lazy I think.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

What a shitty close to the quarter.
worst quarter closing team in the last 15 years, I swear. But good in the other 9-10 minutes

[100%duncan]

Cant blame them for being bored with these fucks

[HarlemHeat37]

It's crazy how badly Montejunas fell off in just a year, tbh..looked like a promising player prior to the back injury, now he looks like complete garbage..

[UNT Eagles 2016]

don't like Hard-on getting rewarded for that flop... :td

[BatManu20]

Great hustle play by D-West

[100%duncan]

Someone tell me. Please someone. Why are they not posting up Kawhi on harden?

[RD2191]

Lol Spurs. Choke incoming.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

So can we infer from Butler lack of minutes in last 3 games that he's getting cut ..if so, then Pop has gone senile and his lovefest with Bonner is worth a private investigation..
Why can't we cut Ray Mac instead?

[spursistan]

Feels like a Spurs choke coming tbh.

[mudyez]

wow...curry injured

[SAGirl]

We need to go to Kawhi more what is this?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Someone tell me. Please someone. Why are they not posting up Kawhi on harden?
there's a guy with the number 9 in the game

[Silver&Black]

Starting to get a little worried tbh...

[mudyez]

ankle...probably not too bad

[Kawhitstorm]

It's crazy how badly Montejunas fell off in just a year, tbh..looked like a promising player prior to the back injury, now he looks like complete garbage..

This is his first game in a couple of months:lol

[FaM0us Skins]

703775035152949249

[BatManu20]

Curry walking gingerly back to the locker room against OKC. Looks like an ankle injury

[sasaint]

worst quarter closing team in the last 15 years, I swear. But good in the other 9-10 minutes

It's the NBA. It happens.

[TheGreatYacht]

Where the fuck is Rockets killer LMAlpha?! Poop gotta stop that shit

[UNT Eagles 2016]

That shot should count

[100%duncan]

703775035152949249

[FaM0us Skins]

Wtf Patty

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Curry walking gingerly back to the locker room against OKC. Looks like an ankle injury
Don't get my hopes up... PLEASE... :nope

[Silver&Black]

Drexler and his buddy have been bitching about that blocking call at the end of the 3rd for about 10 minutes now...

[BatManu20]

Alright the lethargic, shitty play was cute for a while. Time to wake up

[TheGreatYacht]

GTFO kawhi

[RD2191]

Ahahhahaha choking faggots

[100%duncan]

Kawhi bailing harden out what the fuck

[TXstbobcat]

Mills3333333333333

[SAGirl]

Wow,Patty! WTF was that?

[sasaint]

Someone tell me. Please someone. Why are they not posting up Kawhi on harden?

Shooting fish in a barrel. We like to practice other parts of our game. Right now we need to practice making shots.

[loveforthegame]

Kyle!

[TXstbobcat]

Slomo and 1!!!!!!!!

[100%duncan]

Pop has gone senile. Kiwi hasnt gotten a rest this half

[r0drig0lac]

Curry walking gingerly back to the locker room against OKC. Looks like an ankle injury

[ElNono]

[Ron Swanson]

Fathead +1

[RD2191]

Maybe Kawhi wouldnt be cold had a fat french PG passed him the ball.

[FaM0us Skins]

KA!

[r0drig0lac]

Kyle!!!

[resistanze]

What a horrendous stretch of basketball

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Needed that little run

[Silver&Black]

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Lots of open shots for Rockets, they're missing a few... this D wouldn't fly against the Dubbies and Curry

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Dray Fag airballed a FT :lol

[RD2191]

HarDone locking up Kawhi:lol
Your mother should of locked up her vagina.

[sasaint]

What a horrendous stretch of basketball

It's much better when we get our horrendous stretch out of the way in the first quarter, tbh.

[Kawhitstorm]

Draymond Green :lol

[100%duncan]

703776716343226368

awesome

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Rockets arena dabbing... LOL.


Thunder up 11.

[MoSpur]

:lol Steven Adams' beard

[01Snake]

Draymond Green :lol

What was that sideline reporter lady saying about him? Something he did at halftime??

[SAGirl]

Although it's a comfortable lead Danny with those 5 fouls has to be a concern bc our transition D has been bad. Butler in. We are not waiving him TBH. Has to be Bonner.

[Silver&Black]

Your mother should of locked up her vagina.

Don't talk to "Sugar Walls" like that

[UNT Eagles 2016]

The answer to that question is Caldwell Jones, tbh.

[RD2191]

Don't talk to "Sugar Walls" like that

Lmao

[Kawhitstorm]

Pop has gone senile. Kiwi hasnt gotten a rest this half

He heard Curry turned his ankle & is trying to let Kawhi pad his stats.:wakeup

[sasaint]

Remember when free throw shooting was our bane? This season - second in the league 79%. :toast

[BatManu20]

There you go LMA

[RD2191]

Wtf Spurs.

[MoSpur]

The Spurs' fast break is one of the worst in the the NBA. Has been for a long time now. :lol

[RD2191]

Spurs playing like faggots

[kuato]

Spurs without Manu = {ñ_ñ} Zzz ZzZ

[r0drig0lac]

LMA!!!

[sasaint]

Worst fast break in the history of basketball!!!

[01Snake]

:lol Steven Adams' beard

That's a mustache, lol

[spursistan]

First terrible decision by Butler..

[RD2191]

Smh at this faggotry.

[BatManu20]

Rockets exploiting the Spurs biggest weakness: Transition defense

[Silver&Black]

:lol Dat Fastreak

[100%duncan]

Rockets exploiting the Spurs biggest weakness: Transition defense

u mean transition offense

[01Snake]

Here comes Drama Queen Curry back in.

[NASpurs]

:lol fuck this

[Kawhitstorm]

What was that sideline reporter lady saying about him? Something he did at halftime??

He was held scoreless so his teammates/Kerr told him to be aggressive & he snapped then started yelling "I'm not a robot", "I won't shoot if you don't want me to shoot"......etc:lol

[Ron Swanson]

Doing some stupid shit out there.

[Robz4000]

:lmao Spurs

[MoSpur]

What kind of defense is that on Harden? :bang

[BatManu20]

FFS Spurs... Lead cut to 13 points

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the fucker is back in the game playing. Thanks for getting my hopes up, assholes. :td :(

[spursistan]

we are playing like pussies..tbh

[TheGreatYacht]

Fat head and Mills are literally allergic to defense :lmao

Also that Rasual entry pass... What a joke. Literally let Lamarcus get doubled

[resistanze]

Pure idiocy

[Kawhitstorm]

Rockets exploiting the Spurs biggest weakness: Transition defense

That's why the Rockets have given the Spurs trouble & Brewer is a one man fastbreak

[SAGirl]

Damn Butler we needed the rebound! ... no sooner do I sing him praises that wtf moment happens.

[RD2191]

2nd round exit. Classic Spurs choke job.

[100%duncan]

CIA POP GON PUT KIWI TO PAD HIS STATS

[UNT Eagles 2016]

OKC turnovers killing them...

[sasaint]

Problem is, once you lose your edge it is much harder to regain it than play all-out like the Rockettes now.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Yep, Butler sealed his fate there. :(

[TXstbobcat]

LMA!!!!!!

[Silver&Black]

:lma

[Darius Bieber]

Not sure to root for... Hate OKC and the Warriors equally bad.

[100%duncan]

Spurs fans are worse than Rockets fans tbh. Imagine the meltdown if we had their record

[spursistan]

Plenty of time to choke this..The Spurs have one of those mind-numbing losses pretty much every year..

[MoSpur]

Our fast breaks suck

[NASpurs]

:lmao Spurms

[RD2191]

Gtfo butler

[ElNono]

so many missed bunnies

[100%duncan]

Butler gon get waived

[UNT Eagles 2016]

The answer to that question is Caldwell Jones, tbh.
CALLED IT!

[Silver&Black]

Simmons had Verde for the layup. His fastbreak game needs work.

SMH.

[Ron Swanson]

Butler should have kicked that over to Danny

[ElNono]

This is where we need Andre Miller...

[100%duncan]

Kawhichael gonna close this up. Chill you fags

[TheGreatYacht]

Rasual trying his hardest to get cut. Fucking retard. Now Bonner is for sure staying

[MoSpur]

Simmons had Verde for the layup. His fastbreak game needs work.

SMH.

Think you meant Butler

[sasaint]

Man, Rasual blowing another break. Is he volunteering to get cut?

[resistanze]

Waive Butler

[NASpurs]

This is where we need Andre Miller...

:lol

[Silver&Black]

Think you meant Butler

My bad. The Butler Did Do It.

[01Snake]

That Fruit of the Loom mascot, lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Not sure to root for... Hate OKC and the Warriors equally bad.
I hate OKC worse but we're 8 games up on them

[timtonymanu]

Butler comes back down to earth. Pop killed his confidence by signing Ratface

[gilmor]

Butler is really really bad..

[EVAY]

This is where we need Andre Miller...

A sentence I never expected to read on a Spurs board...lol!!

[MoSpur]

:lmao those Rockets fans dressed as the Fruit of the Loom characters.

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy to LMA!!!!!!

[timtonymanu]

This is where we need Andre Miller...

:lmao

[RD2191]

I cant believe this shit.

[Ron Swanson]

This is where we need Andre Miller...

This is where I need more whiskey.

[FaM0us Skins]

12 point game

[100%duncan]

Kiwi

[loveforthegame]

Leonard got that call. :lol

[FaM0us Skins]

Good job by Kawhi

[100%duncan]

[BatManu20]

Butler picked the worst possible time to have a bad game with Martin waiting in the wings tbh :lol

[SAGirl]

:claw

[BatManu20]

This is where we need Andre Miller...


:lol

[Darius Bieber]

Thank God T-Mac isn't there to score 13 points in 30 seconds.

[MoSpur]

I'd laugh at the free throw line if I were to see them Fruit of the Loom guys

[Silver&Black]

:cry

[UNT Eagles 2016]

so unfortunate #30 never gets injured for realz anymore... :(

[loveforthegame]

Leaving 3 point shooters open. :pctoss

[BatManu20]

The Rockets are suddenly moving the ball like the Spurs should be

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Dion Butters :lol

[SAGirl]

Butler picked the worst possible time to have a bad game with Martin waiting in the wings tbh :lol
I thought the same thing. He's been rock solid all season and then screws it up this game.

[NASpurs]

Terrible fucking shot TD

[BatManu20]

Why are we posting up Timmy right now :lol

[timtonymanu]

:lol fucking Spurs. Always gotta pull shit like this.

[Kawhitstorm]

Butler has tunnel vision when he sees an open lane ala Cory Brewer :lol

[100%duncan]

People really think we're gonna lose this? Some of you are dumbfucks for real

[sasaint]

A Timmy ISO?!?!?!

[RD2191]

Spurs are pathetic

[EVAY]

I thought the same thing. He's been rock solid all season and then screws it up this game.

Had the same reaction.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Damn Dubs tie it :(

[Ron Swanson]

Not this hacking shit. Goddamn it.

[100%duncan]

FUCKING STOP HACKING I NEED TO GO SOMEWHERE

[Silver&Black]

Hack-A-Dwert

[Darius Bieber]

Would suck if Simmons were to get cut and he has an HEB appearance tomorrow.

[SAGirl]

Patty didn't have a good game this one either.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

That same shit happened last year :lmao

[100%duncan]

Kawhi getting food stamps. Me likey

[r0drig0lac]

Pop trolling

[UNT Eagles 2016]

:lol
Well he did come through huge in game 7 2010 finals so there's that.

[FaM0us Skins]

Lol Hack-A-Dwight

[sasaint]

Would suck if Simmons were to get cut and he has an HEB appearance tomorrow.

:lol but it won't happen. Simmons is safe; he has just had a bad stretch. Pop likes him.

[spursistan]

Butler picked the worst possible time to have a bad game with Martin waiting in the wings tbh :lol
my thought exactly..:lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

fucking fuck Kirry... gotta make someone else shoot!

[100%duncan]
