Preseason Game Thread: Spurs vs Suns: 10/3/16

[tonight...you]

He had some good plays but it seems like the Spurs PGs always will be an issue with him...

Kawhi steals the ball, run the fast-break, instead of dunk it, he passed the ball...because Pop asked it -to involve temmates- before the game? Or Kawhi is a good teammate O he's very stupid...But he passed the ball, and the white guy Lapro/Garino? missed the bucket.


DON'T FUCKING PASS THE BALL KAWHI to those white guys when running the floor!!!! They make Kyle look so fast!

Lapro's shot is sloooooooooooow.

[NASpurs]

That works, thanks! It just stops randomly though

"then set loop to 1"

[ElNono]

That works, thanks! It just stops randomly though

Hit the Loop button on the bottom until it shows a "1"... that will cause the stream to restart every time it stops automatically... you'll get hiccups every 10 secs, but it works

[TheDoctor]

Those Jr Mercury Suns kids already better than Fathead

[Solid D]

Suns not very good. Kyle has played 10+ minutes but not much impact on the game offensively, so far.

[raybies]

That works, thanks! It just stops randomly though

this is where I'm at. just need to find the loop

[apalisoc_9]

They need to trade simmons for someone decent...Been saying since last year to trade his ass

[Flawless]

"then set loop to 1"

Nice, works thanks!

Lee is hot garbage.

The "loop play" button

[SAGirl]

lol I guess the good thing about listening in and not seeing is the broadcasters are so enthusiastic and the bad play they don't mention anything unless it's egregious.

[dabom]

But it freezes. For fucks sake. :lol

[apalisoc_9]

Murray offball defense is bad..Just like Summer league, he hasnt improved his off ball defense at all..He doesnt know when to help and when not to..

[jyra]

Lee just has no chance guarding a stretch 4 like Dudley. Wide open threes all game long.

[TheDoctor]

That Dijon's defense tho'. Attrocious

[Hoops Czar]

Murray offball defense is bad..Just like Summer league, he hasnt improved his off ball defense at all..He doesnt know when to help and when not to..

But, apparently he's strutting around like he owns the joint.

Slomo offense just sucks..

So far, no one has impressed me to a point..Every guy fighting for a spot or not to get sent down to austin have been Meh Meh..

My God man! You need to get the hell out of there stat!

[Chinook]

Not loving Anderson and Murray playing together so far. I think Kyle is handling himself well at both positions defensively, but he's not attacking offensively. The passing his there, but he needs to score for it to really be effective. Murray is trying to do good things on offense, but without any important guys, he should attack more. Dude's getting swallowed up on screens. Saw no Bertans, and only like a minute of LJC. Hope they play more in the second half. Not loving Simmons, but until I see Arcidiacono or Forbes, I'm going to assume he's the best of the bunch.

In general you can see the rust and lack of chemistry. Once they get their regular rotation established and oiled up, they should be fine. The deep bench will probably be very inconsistent this season, though.

He gonna grow out of it. It's like playing a new game. You try stuff to see how far you can stretch it. that's what he's doing. He's gonna get it quick.

[SAGirl]

?!?!?!?!? lol I had been just listening in on the radio with the announcers typically making it seem like its a huge game, getting listeners excited.... anyways, from what I could tell Kawhi was dominating... then I turn the vpl, just in time to see guys throwing away the ball, not rebounding and things look sloppy. lol It sort of creates an image. but the other thing is the vlc stream keeps coming in and out. Its frustrating to watch, at least with the radio I use my imagination and everything looks so better in the imagination... you don't see all the sloppy plays, everything is exciting if you just listen to a radio announcer broadcast a game.

You're right... One bucket, One TO and 1 personal foul in 13 minutes. With all those Phoenix clanks, you'd think he would have had at least one rebound.

[Chinook]

not sure what's the issue there, but it's working great here...

Imagine she's talking about the restart period after 15 seconds. It takes some getting used to, but it's better than most Ravens streams I have to use.

Make sure to hit the "L" key until it says "Loop: One"... otherwise you gotta hit play every 15 secs when the streams stops

The only saving grace is that the deep bench is flashing pretty well. The second-unit guys are struggling but guys like LJC, Murray, Bertans, Garino and Forbes are showing evidence that they could be bit players.

[dabom]

You need to click the "loop button". Like how iTunes has.

[apalisoc_9]

Something to note though..Anderson hasnt played as a big.

We all speculated that hed play some big minutes but this is the perfect time to see if that would ever work..But nothing.

Most likely, hes just going to play as kawhi backup.

wow Dedmon is not looking so good. I had never seen this guy in real games. ...

Sean would be lecturing Arci about being able to see man and ball. Crawled right up his back, and he didn't even know it.

How has Forbes been? He has better ballhandling than I thought?

Are you not watching anymore? I think he's been about as good as Neal was his first year. A little smaller, though.

Forbes efense :lol

[John Petrucci]

I'd honestly just rather watch Murray put up 25 shots than a lot of this mess. It'd be much more entertaining, he's fun af to watch.

From what I can see the game is too fast for some guys, considering they are most of them rookies I am not surprised. Sad I missed the first half. the announcers really had me stoked lol

Certainly a step up from that shitshow we witnessed to start the half.

[MaNu4Tres]

First pre-season game but....

Dedmon looking lost. He needs more strength in his lower body. It's like his legs drag around like young Mahimni. Lee is looking done, like needs to retire done. Carl Landry? Trade Kyle Anderson + 1st for Noel?

Worried about the benchs' front-court.

Arci is not a NBA player.

Forbes has a chance to stick , if not this year then next year.

Bertans hasn't been impressive. Young Danny Ferry w/ out the awareness or IQ.

Murray has to improve his awareness on the defensive end, especially off ball. He needs to learn how to keep his shirt tucked in tbh...

[BillMc]

Dead man walking is suppose to be Duncan's replacement?

Not impressed in the very small sample I saw.

[apalisoc_9]

Garino has had active hands... also taking charges... some people will say I have a bias, but I think that's the kinda stuff Pop likes to see

Hes been the best defender by far out all the new guys and guys trying to make a spot..Made the same post a few pages back..

It would be smart to wait and see if he can get a shot off playing with better offensive talent..

because playing with these guys is awful for an off ball player..Kawhi struggled to get any open space at all with offball..Dude had to dribble otherwise no opening.

[SAGirl]

Garino has had active hands... also taking charges... some people will say I have a bias, but I think that's the kinda stuff Pop likes to see

Really haven't seen much so I appreciate the review. I did notice the charge he took. I agree Pop likes those dudes.

Dedmon or Anthony haven't impressed...

[GSH]

LOL... We're all going to have to start calling KA "Iceberg", so someone else on the bench can have "SlowMo". Brandon Knight turning guys into pylons just about any time he wanted to.

[BillMc]

So who will be the first 2016-17 cliff jumper? :lol

[wildbill2u]

OMG, they just called KA "a slightly smaller Tim Duncan"!

Are they crazy. Duncan last year was much faster and could jump higher.. (Sorry SA Girl, just had to pull your chain.)

[apalisoc_9]

The depth is going to be a problem this year if dedmon is this bad and Anderson has shown zero improvement and simmons is garbage..

Might force Pop to play the starters more

And Murray puts up a high floating shot from....18 ft??????

[Hoops Czar]

A KA special right there.

Murray never met a shot he didn't like.

I mentioned this... still early though....

[Chinook]

Anderson needed to keep running after that turnover. Simmons was going to undercut Goodwin, so Kyle needed to go over the top. It's a classic Parker/Green transition defense.

[raybies]

pop being extra hard on Murray first game in. I like. Everyone else and he's just sitting it out. He must see something. And as I predicted in the summer Arci is there to push him by just playing solid.

Nice shot by Garino...Needs to take those shots. Would have been smarter to move outside to the three point line or one dribble and closer the midrange..

[Splits]

What game is Murray playing?

[GSH]

So who will be the first 2016-17 cliff jumper? :lol


Right now I might jump off a cliff just to make this go away. The only good thing about tonight is knowing that it's going to get better.

[SAGirl]

pop being extra hard on Murray first game in. I like. Everyone else and he's just sitting it out. He must see something. And as I predicted in the summer Arci is there to push him by just playing solid.

good observation, he's very young and has talent. Just needs to polish it.

[ace3g]

PG with another 50/50 ball

[ElNono]

nice garino

[apalisoc_9]

Garino moving without the ball really well..Finding open spots. Impressive.

[SAGirl]

I like Garino, I must say.

[gambit1990]

spurs needa cut anthony and arci asap.

[TheGreatYacht]

Arcidiacono is allergic to stats. Lmfao

[ElNono]

Manu will make a bunch of these guys look a lot better, tbh... that's why a game like this where he doesn't play is interesting...

[BillMc]

I understand. Preseason game 1 with so many new faces, wasn't going to be pretty...

[apalisoc_9]

to be fair to Anderson, hes the most talented player in the court..I want to see him playing with more talented guys to properly evaluate any sign of improvement

[MaNu4Tres]

I like Garino, I must say.

He looks better than Bertans, Lappro, and Arci.

[Splits]

Pop needs to get Kawhi back in there to finish this game. Important to start the season with a win.

[SAGirl]

Anderson needed to keep running after that turnover. Simmons was going to undercut Goodwin, so Kyle needed to go over the top. It's a classic Parker/Green transition defense.

I expect Pop will be tougher on those guys how they botched it. Simmons fouled the guy...

Thanks apalisoc, I noticed the bone you threw my guy lol :tu.

/hide
/whistles
Now I am going to act like nothing happened lol

[ElNono]

LJC gonna foul out in the preseason

[raybies]

good observation, he's very young and has talent. Just needs to polish it.

yeah. this kind of coaching so soon... shows he's coachable, many variables here. is he trying to break him already, is he gonna treat him like the next tony, who was notoriously pops whipping dog

I'm also sure he wants him to take more quality shots instead of settling and relying on talent. Maybe to be more fundamental... :(

[apalisoc_9]

joel Anthony :lol

[Hoops Czar]

Manu will make a bunch of these guys look a lot better, tbh... that's why a game like this where he doesn't play is interesting...

How anyone can sit here and tell jokes at a time like this is beyond me.

[SAGirl]

Livio hook shot

lots of things are beyond you, tbh...

[wildbill2u]

LJC foul after foul

Well, the stupid MF goes way way out in 3 point land to try and pick up a faster player and then looks pissed because he gets beat.

[John Petrucci]

Wow Garino looks awful

[SAGirl]

I need to apologize to Kaji. Of the guys trying to make the team Garino is the most sound on defense. He stands out. He communicates, he knows what to do. I like him.

[apalisoc_9]

OMG none of these guys know how to layup or shot the basketball :lol

[SAGirl]

Wow Garino looks awful

on offense needs work. He's a roleplayer.

[FuzzyLumpkins]

GArino needs to add core strength.

[gambit1990]

He looks better than Bertans, Lappro, and Arci.
garino was better than lappy and arci before this game. he isn't better than bertans though.

[Darius Bieber]

Tank for next year's draft.

[apalisoc_9]

Cut Arci Already..What a scrub

[BillMc]

Didn't see much from Bertans so far.

[raybies]

if pops not gonna care, I'm not gonna care. he's here for one mission and thats to make an example out of Murray.

[ElNono]

nobody can't run offense for shit... makes me miss Tony Parker... ugh

[FuzzyLumpkins]

I'm starting to hate Paul Giamatti.

[Chinook]

There's just no IQ out there right now. Even the summer league teams look smarter than this squad.

[John Petrucci]

I think Bertans will be valuable once he gets used to the NBA 3 shot shooting over NBA height/athleticism/recovery ability.

[Splits]

Can't believe these scrub euros Bertans and LJC are on guaranteed contracts. We're so fucked, need to start the tank ASAP

[GSH]

joel Anthony :lol


Anthony looks like he's wearing lead shoes. They got those offensive boards, and he never left the floor.

[raybies]

b-town for three!!

[raybies]

turd towers 3.0 tbh

How anyone can sit here and tell jokes at a time like this is beyond me.

Why can't we all just get along?

[SAGirl]

Who feels like they want Dwest back at the minimum? lol

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Why can't we all just get along?

Who wants to suffer fools?

[ElNono]

Why can't we all just get along?

can we all be mad, tbh?

I have 14 million reasons why I didn't reply to his post.

[SAGirl]

Aricidiacono intangibles off the chart.

[gambit1990]

:lol

[ace3g]

Archy 3!!!

[Spur|n|Austin]

don't call it a comeback!

[GSH]

Who wants to suffer fools?

LOL... this place is salty. It's never pre-season on SpursTalk.

[apalisoc_9]

Bertans is nice...

[Spur|n|Austin]

I'm starting to hate Paul Giamatti.

:lol it's a mildly funny commercial, but 10x is enough.

[John Petrucci]

We'll also see Bertans do some nice throwdowns when Kawhi or others get steals and all he has to do is run the correct lane and dunk. He's got great hops off of one foot.

[ElNono]

I have 14 million reasons why I didn't reply to his post.

why does it matter how much he got paid? it's a one season deal.

[Solid D]

Arch is a gamer.

[ace3g]

nice effort by Bertan, goaltending , but nice

[Hoops Czar]

why does it matter how much he got paid? it's a one season deal.

He cost the Spurs Boban and while I wasn't one of his biggest fans, watching Dedmon go 1-5 from the field with 2 rebounds, 4 turnovers and 6 fouls in 22 minutes makes me sick to my stomach.

[Emperor]

Who takes the last shot if it comes down to it?

[apalisoc_9]

Video Replay on a preseason game..

Fuck off NBA refs

This has been the worst reffed game I've seen in a long time.

let's see how Boban does before barking... he was barely playable with us last season... I'm no fan of Dedmon or LJC either, but we got Gasol, Aldrige... they can play some minutes...

[Spur|n|Austin]

Who takes the last shot if it comes down to it?

Bertans, but it doesn't come down to it tonight..

[SAGirl]

I missed Laprovittola completely, but Arci is solid for 3rd string guard, can't say on Murray I really, really didn't see enough of him.

[siraulo23]

Game over

ty for sharing dem links

[apalisoc_9]

Need to watch the first quarter of the game. I completely missed the first quarter...
