[keeferob25]

They really don't want to blow the whistle for us. It's incredible

Spurs reputation has always fucked them!

[Mnky]

"Keep working hard and the basketball gods will reward you." Popovitch, March 12, 2016.

I loved that.

[Leetonidas]

Leonard just waiting for the 4th quarter for effect :lol

[Strategic]

BAM!!!!!

[NASpurs]

Spurs making a run with Parker on the bench.

[RD2191]

:pop: Time to bring back "3rd option"

:lol

[Mugen]

Don't bail them out, gotta keep outworking them and getting those 50/50 balls tbh

[100%duncan]

:claw


Max player

:wow :wow

[hater]

Leonard just destroyed spurstalk :lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

:pop: Time to bring back "3rd option"

Duncan? Seriously... Parker sucks. 0 points and 22 points scored against, :lol

[01Snake]

:pop: Time to bring back "3rd option"

LOL

[bklynspursfan]

Take it to them... They've been giving us open shots all night

[HI-FI]

I heart Kawhi.

:pop: Time to bring back "3rd option"

:lol

[HarlemHeat37]

Haven't went through the thread yet, probably a lot of melting down, right?:lol

OKC is nothing special, tbh, 2nd-tier team..it would be pretty disappointing and a little embarrassing if the Spurs lose to this team at home..

They have Kyle Singler in their rotation:lol

[FkLA]

If MVPaddy plays the majority of the 4th the Spurs win easily tbh.

[hater]

Spurs making a run with Parker on the bench.

And evita

[NASpurs]

And evita

True that

[loveforthegame]

Good thing Pop didn't bench Leonard like the haters wanted.

[DPG21920]

What a shocker. Shots from 3 falling and lead to SA. SA really has played a hell of a game. If their good looks had fallen earlier it would be double digit lead.

Sometimes the results aren't there despite good process. Keep it up SA.

[RD2191]

Damn.

[Silver&Black]

Gotdamnit....KD is a handful.

[Brian Windhorst]

OKC could play much better :lol

:lol Nope, this is about standard for them this year other than when KD or Westbrook go supernova. \

As I said.

[hater]

True that

And Duncan :lol

[MoSpur]

An actual call on the Thunder

[ElNono]

[EVAY]

[313]

Wow, didn't even notice lol wonder if declined so they didnt air it

[loveforthegame]

Leonard-LMA connection again. The future. :tu

[SAGirl]

[MoSpur]

Good foul by LaMarcus

[RD2191]

Give kawhi the fuckin ball!!

[100%duncan]

Can we let Kawhi facilitate. Idk maybe guys?

[MoSpur]

Meanwhile Parker is on the bench

[FaM0us Skins]

Every time an OKC shot goes up, it's like a cage match under the basket.

[Silver&Black]

Good foul. He only made one freebie.

[313]

Scotty Brooks 2.0

[EVAY]

Meanwhile Parker is on the bench

as is Duncan and Ginobili

[Ron Swanson]

Det hustle by Kawhi

[Silver&Black]

Gotdamnit...I love me some Kawhi.

[313]

GREAT D by Danny

[01Snake]

Fucking Durant!

[ElNono]

can we score plz?

[RD2191]

Fuck fuck fuck

[r0drig0lac]

Durant is so good

[100%duncan]

Wtf aldridge didnt even contest

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

I think if the Spurs get to 91, they win the game.

[urunobili]

Crap

[loveforthegame]

My nerves are shot. Damn this game. :lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Shit... can't get any fucking separation to save our lives... :bang always a brick whenever we have a chance to open up a bigger lead...

[Robz4000]

This would be over if the Spurs could hit a jumpshot...

[Darius Bieber]

Crowd is actually semi-decent tonight.

[Spurtacular]

Refs not calling hacks and Spurs offense running like shit through LMA.

[Mugen]

Gotta run it through LA

[NASpurs]

Watch Pop make a change in the lineup coming out of the timeout...

[beirmeistr]

please don't kill the rally with tp, pop

[100%duncan]

Gotta score gaiz

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Kawhi pulling a Curly Neal.

[EVAY]

Wtf aldridge didnt even contest

He looks pretty gassed right now.

[Capster]

How bout guarding Durant?

[Strategic]

Crunch time! Come on Spurs

[Spurtacular]

My nerves are shot. Damn this game. :lol

I'd be having a hard time if this were a playoff game.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

this is big-boy basketball. give it to aldridge snd leonard

Instead, West chucks and misses... :depressed

[hater]

:lmao evita porker and jim. Watching from the bench

[TheGreatYacht]

That has to be our closing lineup

[UNT Eagles 2016]

He looks pretty gassed right now.

Bring Duncan back in.

[Trainwreck2100]

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Aldridge

[Splits]

TP???????????

[NASpurs]

:lmao Parker

[MoSpur]

Parker back in???? Why Pop? Why??

[Capster]

What the hell is wrong with Parker? Toe???

[EVAY]

Psychologically, I think this is an important game for this team. Granted it is probably more important to OKC than us, but I think we really need it going forward.

Wish Parker wasn't back in, tbh

[FkLA]

Enrique in :pctoss

[TXstbobcat]

[SAGirl]

KAWHI:claw

[Spurtacular]

Does the NBA give a second grace period on the 8 second call? Cos Parker just got away with one.

[100%duncan]

[Mnky]

[FaM0us Skins]

Good block by West

[BatManu20]

Why is Parker on the floor...

[loveforthegame]

Give the ball to your best ft shooter Parker. Got damn.

[01Snake]

TP avoids the skunker

[Silver&Black]

That should do it....

:lol All you non-believers thinking we'd lose this game

[Strategic]

Crunch time up comes the cream

[HI-FI]

[313]

Pop yelling at Parker to give Leonard the ball.

[TXstbobcat]

Parker scored a point!!! :rollin

[313]

MVParker closing this shit

[jeebus]

Poop forcing people to give the ball to Lizard is fucking retarded. Why give the ball to a career choker?

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Pop yelling at Parker to give Leonard the ball.


And then Kawhi takes a bad shot. Senile Pop.

[01Snake]

Someone please gif pop screaming at Tony to give Kawhi the ball.

[TheGreatYacht]

Aldridge
West
Leonard
Green
Duncan

this win is on them, just them.

[FaM0us Skins]

Parker has 2 pts lol

[CP48107]

Enrique look like he is ready to retire after this season tbh + 1

No kidding.

[RD2191]

Kawhi missed those shots but still good practice for when it matters.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Parker finally got a point... :lol


Love the 4th quarter defense, and Kawhi.... :ihit :tu :tu :toast

[100%duncan]

Porker cant even make 2/2

[Vokun]

That one point from Parker was HUGE. Dude contributed a lot this game.

[SPURt]

Terrible game and still win against OKC. That's encouraging.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Parker has 2 pts lol

1

[TE]

Gritty win. Still the offense needs to be more sharp against a team like Golden State.

[FkLA]

:lmao Pop telling Rique to stop being a ballhog POS

[313]

Poop forcing people to give the ball to Lizard is fucking retarded. Why give the ball to a career choker?

[TheGreatYacht]

MVParker closing this shit
:lol...

[TXstbobcat]

That should do it....

:lol All you non-believers thinking we'd lose this game

someone owes someone $100. :rollin

[FaM0us Skins]

Nvm Parker has 1 pt lol

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Parker scored a point!!! :rollin


Funny thing is he has two points less than Mills in far fewer shots.

[SASdynasty!]

Leads the team in assists and closes out the game. Typical MVParker.

[SAGirl]

T9 struggled heavily this game. Good sign for Kawhi and LMA that the two teamed up for this win.

Possibly in th play offs we see reversal in roles between TD and West for stretches bc TD had to reinforce the bench's rebounding.

Edit + spacing= West was taking a,lot of midrange shots to close out.

[BatManu20]

Despite the last 2 missed shots, D-West has been HUGE in the 4th qtr.

[Darius Bieber]

Don't get too excited Spurs fans... OKC has been sucking of late, losing to the Timberpups in OKC last night....

[pgardn]

They clearly are wearing down in the 4th.
This game to game trend is not a statistical blurb for OKC

If West could hit some shots this would have ended in a blowout.

[01Snake]

We'll get buried playing like this by GS. I can't see us shooting this horrendous at home again.

[HI-FI]

Parker has 2 pts lol
"We go as far as he takes us."
--Parker Shortbus

[313]

That one point from Parker was HUGE. Dude contributed a lot this game.
Most assist on the team last i checkeed

[EVAY]

Kawhi has had an overall bad shooting night, but thank god he made them in the fourth.

[RD2191]

While I love ripping on Parker I really am worried about his play. We are gonna need him if we want to beat the Dubs.

[01Snake]

Despite the last 2 missed shots, D-West has been HUGE in the 4th qtr.

He got us to the tie. D-Catalyst.

[SpurPadre]

Enrique look like he is ready to retire after this season tbh
Unless Vivid Entertainment signs him to a ridiculous contract, not happening.

[Splits]

1

Pay me my $100

[MaineSpursFan]

We'll get buried playing like this by GS. I can't see us shooting this horrendous at home again.

Yeah, Need more Kmart.

[PopTheGOAT]

Can't believe we won this game:lol

[NASpurs]

You better make them porky

[spursistan]

Why the fuck Parker is holding the ball :lmao

[pgardn]

"We go as far as he takes us."
--Parker Shortbus


Who said this?

[spursparker9]

lol enrique.

[Silver&Black]

P:lolrker at the line...

[Ron Swanson]

Not so free throws

[AZK619]

Parker :lol

[NASpurs]

Fucking fat piece of shit

[loveforthegame]

Fuck off Parker. Give the ball to Leonard.

[313]

Funny thing is he has two points less than Mills in far fewer shots.
Damn! :wow

[Capster]

YES. YES. YES!!!

[100%duncan]

MVPARKER CLUTCHHHH

[Robz4000]

Fuck Porker

[BatManu20]

Fucking Parker :lol

[SAGirl]

Despite the last 2 missed shots, D-West has been HUGE in the 4th qtr.
:tu love his competitive fire

[Mugen]

Absolutely zero reason for Porky to be on the court right now when we need defense and FT shooting.

[DPG21920]

Spurs didn't get anything offensively from DG/TP or anyone on the bench other than West really, but still won. Great defense and if shots would have fallen would have been a huge lead.

Have to feel pretty confident about SA vs OKC. OKC defense isn't good enough to prevent SA from getting good looks throughout a game/series.

[Spurs9]

4th quarter mvp

[ElNono]

:lol...

come on, you slipping my nig :lol

[100%duncan]

Pay me my $100

Have some mercy dude

[TXstbobcat]

Pay me my $100

Good luck collecting that from him. :lol

[sasaint]

He got us to the tie. D-Catalyst.

Scored 6 in a row at one point.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Pay me my $100

:toast you got this one right... I didn't see it tonight. Have a great weekend!

[Kawhitstorm]

Porker, it's getting sad at this point.:depressed

[DPG21920]

People shouldn't be surprised SA won. I know it's hard not to live and die with every missed shot but SA really was much better than OKC tonight. Not surprised at all that SA won.

[loveforthegame]

That was a clean block.

[ElNono]

thunderrefs

[Chris]

Thunderef puttin in some overtime

[Silver&Black]

Hold on....forgot about the Thunderefs, tbh.

It's not over yet.

[RD2191]

Tf refs

[313]

Kawhi has had an overall bad shooting night, but thank god he made them in the fourth.
Him and Danny were sensational on D though. Great effort all night. If Danny hits some threes, we win in a blowout.

[BatManu20]

Fuck these refs man seriously

[100%duncan]

:lmao

[urunobili]

The officiating has been so bad it's not even funny...

[SpurPadre]

One thing I learned in this game is that West needs to play in crunch time in the playoffs.

[Mugen]

Absolutely zero reason for Parker to be on the court still :lmao

[TE]

I don't know what to say about Parker.

[01Snake]

Pop's calling the TO to yank TP

[AZK619]

Give it to Kawhi

[spursistan]

giving the ball to Parker to brick FTs :lmao..I'm done with Pop..

[100%duncan]

Pop calling a timeout so that he can avoid tp shooting fts :lmao

[pgardn]

Porker, it's getting sad at this point.:depressed


Your takes are abysmal.

[Texas_Ranger]

get parker the fuck out!!!!!

[NASpurs]

Absolutely zero reason for Parker to be on the court still :lmao

[FkLA]

While I love ripping on Parker I really am worried about his play. We are gonna need him if we want to beat the Dubs.

Nah hes a huge defensive liability against them (and basically every elite team). I'd love to see MVPaddy be our closer at PG tbh.

[Robz4000]

Game not over tbh

[vander]

If Chip Engelland could maybe teach Green how to shoot 3s, Spurs would be pretty good

[spursparker9]

Pop calling a timeout so that he can avoid tp shooting fts :lmao

:wow :lol

[EVAY]

Him and Danny were sensational on D though. Great effort all night. If Danny hits some threes, we win in a blowout.

True. Danny really did have some great D plays tonight. But man that shooting was awful

[sasaint]

Spurs didn't get anything offensively from DG/TP or anyone on the bench other than West really, but still won. Great defense and if shots would have fallen would have been a huge lead.

Have to feel pretty confident about SA vs OKC. OKC defense isn't good enough to prevent SA from getting good looks throughout a game/series.

We are not likely to have everybody shoot this badly in a series against OKC. I like our chances. We played with heart if nothing more. :toast

[MaineSpursFan]

that was a clean block by The Kingslayer....
