Game Thread: 1/17 Spurs vs. Wolves 7:30 PM CST (8:30 PM EST, 3:30 AM Riga Time)

One hundred & twelve in our own gym!!


Not bad when you give up 71 in the first half

[bklynspursfan]

Well, those guys play hard. Effort matters.

For sure. Plus, not giving up 30FT's that half helped. But they were just far more aggressive and assertive defensively

[cjw]

Kawhi has 133 points on 66 shots over the last four games. Unreal level of efficiency.

[BillMc]

Lee +20 in 15 mins.

[sasaint]

The defense is still a problem. You think we're coming back against a team like the dubs of we allow 71 in the half? I don't think so.

We "limited" the T-Wolves to 71. How many do you think we can limit the Cavs to? :wow

[TheDoctor]

Fathead should make himself useful and headbutt a ref
:lmao

Meh. That's not how it works tho. We held the rockets to 45 first half points last game. They're far better than the Wolves offensively. These nights happen. We could turn around and do the same to the Cavs.

[BatManu20]

Good Win. Game ball goes to Kawhi. Onto the next.

Yeah, I liked that Dedmon and Lee combo.

Sure. I just don't have a blue font.

[GSH]

So, 41 more of these shitty threads with premature freakout? :lol


Give up 71 first half points to a good team, and it won't turn out this good. In the playoffs, they're all good teams.

Gotcha :)

Danny's airballs are so pretty, tbh



If Manu keeps taking these charges, that's all he'll have left.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

did you move to toronto to go to school or?

i've actually been thinking about move up there.

Yup, that's right I majored in film at York University. I was a Canadian citizen because of my parents and it was significantly cheaper to do school in Canada than the States at the time since I wasn't a US citizen.

[wildbill2u]

There were at least three tonight. I don't know how a 39 y.o. guy can purposely keep taking that punishment at this stage of his career. None of the other players even look like they want to emulate him occasionally, much less in every game.

great stat.

imagine if he had a PG that could get him easy baskets.

[DPG21920]

Do you realize what you just said :lol? He's getting those points playing with TP.

kawhi isn't putting up numbers because of tony parker.

Just wanted to say that Eva Green is L I F E.

:lma would disagree, he gets tons of easy baskets from MVParker

[gambit1990]

brandon jennings is averaging more assists than tp :lol

[cjw]

To add to the other stat, Kawhi is tied with Davis with seven 30+ point games on 60%+ shooting. Only other player with more than four is Derozan. Kawhi has four of them in a row (four players each have four total).

it's astonishing tbh. davis gets his from playing so close to the basket.

if kawhi had a real starting PG he'd get an alley oop once every two games.

Gambit wants nothing more than to see TP fail - what a shit fan.

[DPG21920]

Gambit wants nothing more than to see TP fail - what a shit fan.

It's not just that, but he's so annoying. He bumps his own posts more than anyone I have ever seen. Most of the time they are terrible posts too.

He is always looking for confirmation and just screams for attention over and over and over.

I bet he's the guy that when people are having a group convo and he walks up they all just disperse. If he's like this in real life he's probably very tough to hang around.

Sucks because he seems like a nice enough person.

[Spur|n|Austin]

They must be selling all the leftover nachos at half price. The damn stands are nearly empty.

Concessions all close midway through the 4th, so no.

:lol

never ONCE have i said i want him to fail. as long as he's in a spurs uniform i want him to do good. even said i hope he plays good in the olympics.

people like you and dpg have no idea what you're talking about in terms of me. i don't put words in either of your mouths.

[gambit1990]

tp will play the way tp will play. i have no control over that whether i love him or hate him. i will damn sure point out the numbers. they're objective.

unlike the posters bitching about me :lol spend your energy elsewhere losers.

[DPG21920]

If this don't beat it all^

[gambit1990]

make no mistake, i want parker off the team in favor of a real PG. while he's on the spurs i certainly hope he can average more assists than brandon jennings :lol

[spurs10]

Gambit wants nothing more than to see TP fail - what a shit fan. Interesting that Kawhi mentioned Tony by name as a major reason he has had four 30+ games in a row. :wow

[Kawhitstorm]

Kirby meanwhile 60 points on 50 shots.:lmao

DeFrozen is also one of those players who scored 30 on 24 shots b/c he doesn't shoot 3s.:lol

Spurs win!

Bet on the Spurs in this one; it was the first time the Spurs had failed to cover a game I bet on them. The continuity was really good and the Spurs were rollin' and lookin' to blow it open; but with all due respect to Cry Havoc (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=7256) 's feelings, every time that they were going to, Parker came in and forced two or three stupid plays that stalled the momentum.

Nonetheless, the Spurs battled and made a late run and had a play set up for Green in the final half minute to take the lead to 13 to beat the -12 1/2 spread. Green curled around a screen and set-up for the open three; but he then catapulted the ball over the rim by about a foot.

Green played very good in that game. It was hard for me to stay mad at him. But I was just like, fuck Danny! Wide open three to beat the spread and you heave it!
