lol

[tonight...you]

I still got to see Manu doing some drills, Kawhi was out here , etc... I've been coming since the Nets came to brooklyn, and got the honor of watching Duncan work out pre game by himself. I feel like everything else now is just money in the bank after that tbh

It was worse a couple years ago when the big 3 + more sat out and we weren't this deep lol

I haven't been able to go see them live in a couple months of Sundays.
My wife got me tickets to see them on my birthday, in March. We're spending the weekend on the Riverwalk. Total surprise by her. I don't even care who they're playing, or who's playing. I'm excited as hell!

The seven hour drive will feel like seven minutes.

[TheGreatYacht]

We'd be up 30, rigth now
Fap86 also believes Real Madrid are better without the Ballon D'or winner, Ronaldo.

[wildbill2u]

Only with dildo or tongue, tbh

the problem with you young guys is that you have no imagination.

[tonight...you]

Don't even know what you're trying to say, tbh.

No worries bud. Spurs would be losing with Parker in. Gotcha. 'Nuff said.

[TheDoctor]

:lol today's football fans

[r0drig0lac]

Kyle 2.0 is good

[GSH]

Lopez just keeps holding his arms out like he's doing crowd control - and no whistles.

[tonight...you]

:lol today's football fans

Take your foreign interest off this thread. There is no need for that shit here.

[ace3g]

slomo dunk

[r0drig0lac]

goatyle anderson

[beirmeistr]

KA channeling KL

[Cry Havoc]

This might be the slowest rotating defense I've ever seen.

[GSH]

LMA and Lopez making it personal.

[BatManu20]

Slo-MVP

[GSH]

This might be the slowest rotating defense I've ever seen.

[TheGreatYacht]

:lol today's football fans
:lol

[unleashbaynes]

Lmao, the Nets are so fucking terrible. What an embarassment.

[james evans]

How in the hell is anderson just walking thru the lane for layups? Those are the slowest layups I've ever seen in my life.

these are the type of games that people watch and call the spurs boring because I'm having a hard time staying awake in this one myself

[Vokun]

Fathead stringing together 2 straight good games

[tonight...you]

#BrooklynNets

[wildbill2u]

The Nets are really really bad when Slomo can "drive" past the defenders into the lane for a slo-dunk. If they tried to show that in slow motion, the film would start burning.

[r0drig0lac]

Kyle on fire

[lilbthebasedgod]

Kyle Leonard

[tonight...you]

Kyle playing great.

[james evans]

They got Anderson looking like Dr J out there

[tonight...you]

Kyle Leonard

Kyle playing like Leonard on rufies... but it work against the Nets.

[timtonymanu]

Lmao nets giving away draft picks to get 40 year olds Pierce and Garnett 3 years ago

[james evans]

Dammit man, the nets really are horrible.

[BanditHiro]

ugh so god damn slow

[GSH]

Kyle has had a good night. He's still the same speed on defense that he is on offense. Transition just isn't kind to him.

[Robz4000]

Is Jeremy Lin going through trans-op tbh?

[ElNono]

Is Jeremy Lin going through trans-op tbh?

I thought that was a girl fan?

[DPG21920]

Kyle is a very good player. He'd be a top 3 player on the Nets.

[GSH]

Is Jeremy Lin going through trans-op tbh?


LOL. How would we know if he did?

[tonight...you]

Kyle=Leonard wilding out on the roofball.
That's his ceiling.

[TheGreatYacht]

Trade Kyle for a Nets 2023 second round pick before they check his film

[TheDoctor]

THIS IS HOW WE DO IT

[tonight...you]

LOL. How would we know if he did?
Aww...
I kind of dig the little Asian. Dude's got some game...

I root for Mexicans and Asians doing things in the NBA. They make for good stories.

Too bad they make for no stories, IRL.

[dabom]

Kyle is a very good player. He'd be a top 3 player on the Nets.

D league team. :lol

[GSH]

Simmons isn't chewing gum? I think that's the first time I've seen him not chewing gum. Even in interviews.

[sasaint]

Sweet crossover by Simmons, who is looking good tonight.

[tonight...you]

D league team. :lol

'Bout time you showed up...

[DPG21920]

D league team. :lol

Lol. I like BKY secretly. They suck but if you watch them they play damn hard. Just don't have a good foundation at the moment.

[wildbill2u]

Release the Latvian!

[r0drig0lac]

wtf dedman

[TheDoctor]

Lol. I like BKY secretly. They suck but if you watch them they play damn hard. Just don't have a good foundation at the moment.

DPG = Sean Marks.

There's no other way.

[tonight...you]

That was actually a great, fundamentally sound double team.

[sasaint]

Shocked that Pop left PG Deadman in the game.

[DPG21920]

What a play by Kilpatrick. Danny with a great contest too.

[wildbill2u]

Dedmon Shaqtin a fool?

[james evans]

popovich's look was hilarious. I need a gif of that immediately!!!

[lilbthebasedgod]

Dedmon fast break:lol

[TheDoctor]

LMAOOOOO Deadman

[DPG21920]

:lmao Sean calling out Magic for his comments

[Vokun]

Whitehead a ugly ass nigga :lol

[DPG21920]

DPG = Sean Marks.

There's no other way.

I would not have taken that job :lol

[Strategic]

Nets making an argument for attrition

[spurs10]

Yeah who was it Sean was referring to that said 'the Cavs were just toying with us.' Magic?

[GSH]

Lol. I like BKY secretly. They suck but if you watch them they play damn hard. Just don't have a good foundation at the moment.

I meant to comment when you said that earlier. They do play hard. This is a team that could just give up, but they keep bringing it. With 3 of the starting 5 out, the Spurs have played well to have this kind of cushion.

[beirmeistr]

MVPelon in attendance

[TheDoctor]

HAHAHAHAHA
omg I'm still laughing
maaaah nigga Dedmon, thanks for this moment tbh

[spurs10]

:lmao Sean calling out Magic for his comments There ya go! It was Magic! Lord...

[tonight...you]

I love that Dedmon has such active eyes and movement. They garner fouls and awkward moments, but he's reacting quickly and always watching everything.

[DAF86]

Was that Mills running that pick and roll for Dedmon? It couldn't have been, folks here tell me he can't do that... Ever.

[thiste]

Yeah who was it Sean was referring to that said 'the Cavs were just toying with us.' Magic?

Yep, said that in the first half

[dabom]

'Bout time you showed up...

Been watching since the game started. Posted in the 3rd 4th page..

[tonight...you]

Been watching since the game started. Posted in the 3rd 4th page..
Must have missed you...

[DPG21920]

Damn so many fans ohhhh'ng and ahhhhing at Spurs

[Cry Havoc]

You gotta feel bad for announcers who describe the opposing coach as using your team as a tune up game.

[DPG21920]

I meant to comment when you said that earlier. They do play hard. This is a team that could just give up, but they keep bringing it. With 3 of the starting 5 out, the Spurs have played well to have this kind of cushion.

Yup. BKY has taken it to many teams for long stretches. This is a dope performance by SA.

[GSH]

Damn so many fans ohhhh'ng and ahhhhing at Spurs


Nets fans like good basketball too.

[tonight...you]

That's why I ;liked Simmons being brave with his shot earlier...

[lefty20]

ridic ball movement doe

[james evans]

I hope mills doesn't shoot himself out tonight

[DPG21920]

Was that Mills running that pick and roll for Dedmon? It couldn't have been, folks here tell me he can't do that... Ever.

We going to do this every time? No one is saying he literally can never do it. We are saying he has not shown the ability to consistently do it especially vs starting caliber players.

[Cklbmk]

Man I want to see more Murray. 23 pts up put him in shit

[r0drig0lac]

bertans!!!

[beirmeistr]

Lol. I like BKY secretly. They suck but if you watch them they play damn hard. Just don't have a good foundation at the moment.

they have to play hard or their Russian ownrr will send them to Siberia

[tonight...you]

Was that Mills running that pick and roll for Dedmon? It couldn't have been, folks here tell me he can't do that... Ever.

Hold on to that dream buddy...
Hold tight! Like a teddy bear, yes?

[dabom]

:lol

[wildbill2u]

Davis showed some good defense on that guy driving.. I like this kid Why did they take him out?

[DPG21920]

LOL Mills coughing it up trying to run an offense.

[BatManu20]

Bertans has 5 fouls in 6 minutes...... Lol

[ace3g]

Lets go Heat as well.

[DPG21920]

Pop like "Nah Mills, give it to Simmons to run the offense now"

[GSH]

Man I want to see more Murray. 23 pts up put him in shit


They came at the rookie hard tonight. Not that surprising. He'll learn from it and get better.

[Splits]

Can't believe that the Nyets got Whitehead after his breakout seasons in Miami. Makes me long for George...

[TheDoctor]

Pop humbling Joel Anthony tbh. Up 22 and zero mins

[DAF86]

Hold on to that dream buddy...
Hold tight! Like a teddy bear, yes?

Who the fuck are you, tbh? :lol

[tonight...you]

Pop humbling Joel Anthony tbh. Up 22 and zero mins
It's true...
Joel Anthony needs humbling.

You heard it here first, from TheDoctor.

[ElNono]

Pop humbling Joel Anthony tbh. Up 22 and zero mins

He's big time. He played as many minutes as Kawhi and Manu tonight...

[tonight...you]

Who the fuck are you, tbh? :lol

The guy laughing at you. You can't hear me?

[DPG21920]

They came at the rookie hard tonight. Not that surprising. He'll learn from it and get better.

Ya - they got up in him and he did not handle it well. Good learning moment about being ready. Some of it is just reading when things will happen and knowing what to expect. Plus, when you're new teams test you. No one bothers pressing TP because it's pointless - he wont cough it up like that.

[tonight...you]

Who the fuck are you, tbh? :lol
The clueless makes me smile...

I like you.

[DPG21920]

Murray not even looking to try and turn the corner. So tentative and has not blown by anyone tonight. Need him to collapse the defense.

[BanditHiro]

Murray not even looking to try and turn the corner. So tentative and has not blown by anyone tonight. Need him to collapse the defense.

it has Pop written all over it.

[DPG21920]

Time to sell Murray while his value is high tbh..

[TheDoctor]

It's true...
Joel Anthony needs humbling.

You heard it here first, from TheDoctor (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=49616).

Pop teaching him to get over himself after this

http://blacksportsonline.com/home/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Joel-Anthony-Barbados.gif

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I'm surprised with Murray. I know a repeat of the Cavs game is a bit much but I figured against the worst team in the league he would look a little better. Oh well, growing pains.

[tonight...you]

Time to sell Murray while his value is high tbh..
You better stop... lol

[DPG21920]

Man the scouting report on Murray from college was dead on :lol.

Talked about how he just loves that floater even when it's erratic a lot of times.

[tonight...you]

That woman looks like beat up mummy meat.

[BatManu20]

Murray not being aggressive at all after being very aggressive the entire game against the Cavs. Puzzling.

[DPG21920]

Why the F is LMA out there?

[TheDoctor]

That woman looks like beat up mummy meat.

ROOOOFL

[BanditHiro]

just shoot the open shot LMA

[DPG21920]

Come on LMA! So greedy. You saw the triple team and got greedy. Move the damn ball.

[GSH]

Ya - they got up in him and he did not handle it well. Good learning moment about being ready. Some of it is just reading when things will happen and knowing what to expect. Plus, when you're new teams test you. No one bothers pressing TP because it's pointless - he wont cough it up like that.


It's like football teams will blitz a rookie QB when he finally gets on the field. They come hard until he proves he can beat the blitz. Murray just tried to do a little too much himself. There's nothing wrong with not being able to beat a double team. (Or triple team like they just brought - at least he didn't cough it up that time.) I like his body language, though. He's not hanging his head, and he def doesn't look scared.

[Cklbmk]

Time to sell Murray while his value is high tbh..


Time to trade you for a top 55 protected 2nd tbh

[BatManu20]

There's Dejounte

[DAF86]

The guy laughing at you. You can't hear me?

How do you want me to hear you? Over the keyboards? You fucking moron. :lol

[Strategic]

Lin going for the WNBA?

[Cklbmk]

Murray not being aggressive at all after being very aggressive the entire game against the Cavs. Puzzling.


He seems nervous AF

[tonight...you]

Time to trade you for a top 55 protected 2nd tbh
Love deeps.
One of the best on this place and has been for a long, long time.

[DarrinS]

Lin going for the WNBA?

:lol

[ElNono]

Lin looks like he needs his safe space, tbh

[GSH]

Man the scouting report on Murray from college was dead on :lol.

Talked about how he just loves that floater even when it's erratic a lot of times.


That floater wasn't erratic in SL - it was just consistently bad. Not much better in preseason. But he's throwing it up pretty well now.

[DPG21920]

Time to trade you for a top 55 protected 2nd tbh

Well that's a losing trade for you.

[wildbill2u]

First time tonight I got the picture on Jeremine Lin. Now I know what the conversations were about.

[SAGirl]

Davis showed some good defense on that guy driving.. I like this kid Why did they take him out?
He's in foul trouble..

[ElNono]

Love deeps.
One of the best on this place and has been for a long, long time.

What about me? I'm offended. You're dead to me.

[tonight...you]

How do you want me to hear you? Over the keyboards? You fucking moron. :lol
Yeah... you play that card while saying Patty is a real PG and effusing over every basic pass he makes.
You look so damn smart right now...

[TheGreatYacht]

Lin looks like he needs his safe space, tbh
He wearing a red hat?

[DPG21920]

That floater wasn't erratic in SL - it was just consistently bad. Not much better in preseason. But he's throwing it up pretty well now.

:lol - He's obviously going to use it so I hope this 3 games are more indicative than his entire career thus far.

[DPG21920]

Love deeps.
One of the best on this place and has been for a long, long time.

*dap*

[ElNono]

He wearing a red hat?

No, but he definitely drinks lattes and drives a Prius

[Strategic]

Scola

[ElNono]

oh shit, they're bringing the bigs guns... Scola in the house

[thiste]

lol scola

[GSH]

That was sweet ball movement. Murray finally took advantage of the pressure, great swing by Lee, and Kyle finished from the corner. I love it when a plan comes together.

[ElNono]

smh Kyle, everything right except having a toe on the line

[SpurPadre]

Come on Miami...BEAT THOSE FUCKS!!! You too Giannis AnteCOOKOOFORCOCOAPUFFS beat those fucking rocket assholes!

[tonight...you]

What about me? I'm offended. You're dead to me.

I married into a Juarez Mexican family. True roots.
You and me primos now. I need not speak about my unconditional loyalty to you... I would shoot anyone who had the balls to cut in line, in front of you, at the Golden Corral, homie!

No joke!

[DAF86]

Yeah... you play that card while saying Patty is a real PG and effusing over every basic pass he makes.
You look so damn smart right now...

Smarter than the guy that thinks "I'm the guy laughing at you... Can't you hear me?" is a good trash talk line, tbh. :lol

[ace3g]

alright Dejounte??? lol

[GSH]

Q4: Dejounte's Revenge

[thiste]

what a shitty game lol

[beirmeistr]

Come on Miami...BEAT THOSE FUCKS!!! You too Giannis AnteCOOKOOFORCOCOAPUFFS beat those fucking rocket assholes!
score?

[tonight...you]

Smarter than the guy that thinks "I'm the guy laughing at you... Can't you hear me?" is a good trash talk line, tbh. :lol
rawr...
So you want Patty to start for this Spurs team from here on out? Like for the next several seasons?

[ElNono]

I married into a Juarez Mexican family. True roots.
You and me primos now. I need not speak about my unconditional loyalty to you... I would shoot anyone who had the balls to cut in line, in front of you, at the Golden Corral, homie!

Dijon quickness is undeniable

[SpurPadre]

Miami up 90-84 with 7 minutes left. Bucks up by 3 late in the 3rd quarter.

[r0drig0lac]

Heat playing well vs gsw again

[Strategic]

smh Kyle, everything right except having a toe on the linea big toe to go along with his big head

[wildbill2u]

Even the Net's dancers look like bench dancers. Franchise is a piece of shit TBH

[tonight...you]

no mames cabron, y tratete unas chelas bien heladas
No worries there.

[r0drig0lac]

Well Anthony looks like he knows what he has to do. That's a start.

[thiste]

[DPG21920]

Harden has 23 points on 6 shots :wow

[GSH]

Harden has 23 points on 6 shots :wow


Let me guess. Three 3's, three misses, and 14 FT's?

[TheDoctor]

Miami up 90-84 with 7 minutes left. Bucks up by 3 late in the 3rd quarter.

We all know that game will end 102 - 117 GS

[rasuo214]

Pelicans without AD are beating the Cavs right now 83-71.

[r0drig0lac]

what a pass by dedman

[100%duncan]

I still got to see Manu doing some drills, Kawhi was out here , etc... I've been coming since the Nets came to brooklyn, and got the honor of watching Duncan work out pre game by himself. I feel like everything else now is just money in the bank after that tbh

It was worse a couple years ago when the big 3 + more sat out and we weren't this deep lol

Yeah best time of my life was when me and my sis watched 3 games denver gsw rox back in march of 2015. Gott a pic with everyone relevant except tp and pop

[spurs10]

what a shitty game lol :lol Well sometimes a good old fashion beatdown is good for morale!

[sasaint]

Deadman showing the complete game!

[TheDoctor]

HaHa, if only...

Deadman showing the complete game!

At least he's having fun

[spurs10]

Go Heat and Bucks!!

[ElNono]

this 4th quarter is more boring than dabom meltdowns, tbh...

[DAF86]

rawr...
So you want Patty to start for this Spurs team from here on out? Like for the next several seasons?

Never said that, tbh.

"Rawr"? :lmao The fuck is this guy? Can somebody tell me with what kind of individual I'm dealing here? :lol

[GSH]

LOL at Anthony trying to shove Forbes out to contest that 3.

[tonight...you]

It's not nice to beat your mummy
Lol...
I've been to Hamunaptra, and all I found was sand and blood...

[sasaint]

At least he's having fun

Yeah, and me, too. I love watching our bench players get a lot of playing time.

[ElNono]

Never said that, tbh.

"Rawr"? :lmao The fuck is this guy? Can somebody tell me with what kind of individual I'm dealing here? :lol

He's pretty social when you don't actually have an ongoing feud with him, IMO

I was just about to agree with you, Nono. And then that gif. WTF, Tonight..you? Seriously... WTF? :lol

[SAGirl]

Yeah, and me, too. I love watching our bench players get a lot of playing time.
Forbes didn't show much... but at least he was more confident and did some ball handling this time...

[SpurPadre]

[DAF86]

He's pretty social when you don't actually have an ongoing feud with him, IMO

I don't have any ongoing feud with him, tbh. He somehow thought that me shitting on the overblown "lack of PG skills of Mills" shtick, some have here, means I want Patty to be the full time PG starter of the Spurs for the future.

[dabom]

this 4th quarter is more boring than dabom (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=47543) meltdowns, tbh...

Pretty exciting then. :tu

I asked a question, I made no statement. You make your own statements.Savvy?

[SpursIndonesia]

Forbes about to break the backboard tbh

Good Lord he sucks at shooting for a supposedly player groomed to be a shooter.

[NASpurs]

Come on Miami! You can do this!

:lol

You know the Spurs are going to lose tomorrow if the Warriors lose tonight. It's just how it always is.

[spurs10]

Alright another nickname Kyle "Style" Anderson aka "Finger Breaker" doing the post-game interview!

[DPG21920]

I don't have any ongoing feud with him, tbh. He somehow thought that me shitting on the overblown "lack of PG skills of Mills" shtick, some have here, means I want Patty to be the full time PG starter of the Spurs for the future.

Overblown :lol. It's not overblown - it's just truth. Mills is a damn fine player. He's not a good PG. Especially if you are judging him as a starting PG in this league.

[GSH]

It's going to be hard to afford to keep Patty, TBH. No matter how much people here dump on him, he's still gonna get paid. Gasol is going to opt in. They need to keep Dedmon. And Manu will have to get at least a 5% cost of living increase. :D

[thiste]

And that wasn't a D-League game?

It fucking was

[timtonymanu]

Smh Miami will fuck this up per usual.

[TheDoctor]

LETS GO HEAT!

LETS GO HEAT!

[spurs10]

And Manu will have to get at least a 5% cost of living increase. :D Manu is a walking money machine! :lol

[SpurPadre]

:lol

You know the Spurs are going to lose tomorrow if the Warriors lose tonight. It's just how it always is.

Yeah but GOD Leonard is playing tomorrow.

You think Ginobili will have to get a 5% increase on his 14 milly next year? Whoa...

[r0drig0lac]

WAITERS!!!!!!!!!

[DAF86]

Overblown :lol. It's not overblown - it's just truth. Mills is a damn fine player. He's not a good PG. Especially if you are judging him as a starting PG in this league.

You guys act like he can't even drible the ball up the court. He's a shoot first PG? Yeah, just as 99% of the PG's in the NBA today. If anything, I like the fact that he can be effective without the ball on his hands and be a 3pt threat.

[ace3g]

Waiters serving g up the 3!!!

[SpurPadre]

It fucking was

Or it was against the Sixers who didn't give a fuck. Maybe that game spurred them to how much they've improved now.

[BillMc]

Victory!

[DPG21920]

Sure, but that doesn't have anything to do with the point you are trying to make. No one is saying he isn't good or can't play off the ball.

But he pretty much can't dribble the ball up the court against pressure :lol. I've literally seen him pressed multiple times in the playoffs and cough it up. He is not a shoot first PG. He's a shoot first small SG. He's nothing like 99% of the starting PG's today.

Forbes didn't show much... but at least he was more confident and did some ball handling this time...

Forbes got time - that was the big thing for him. I wish Dijon had performed better when it mattered, but he did bounce back in the 4th quarter - even if it was garbage time. He will benefit from every minute on the floor, too. Simmons and Kyle looked particularly good. I was happy and excited for them.

Kyle gave a great post-game interview - very relaxed and genuine without a bunch of cliches. He is extremely likable. I hope Pop figures out how to optimize him next season.

[NASpurs]

Yeah but GOD Leonard is playing tomorrow.


Doesn't matter, it never fails. :lol

[timtonymanu]

Yeah run iso plays against the best team in the league. Smart move, Miami. :rolleyes

[Snaq O'Meal]

Shit... Warriors are now within 1 point from the Heat.

[thiste]

You couldn't manage this end game worse than Miami is doing now

[SpurPadre]

NOOOOO, don't blow this one Miami!!!!

[SpurPadre]

You couldn't manage this end game worse than Miami is doing now

Uh...Game 6, tbh.

[GSH]

You think Ginobili will have to get a 5% increase on his 14 milly next year? Whoa...


Heh. See the big grin. That's a clue. I'm just stirring the pot a little.

I do think Patty is going to get paid. And I think he's going to move on if he isn't going to be the starter here. And with another bump in the cap coming, he really could be hard to keep.

[timtonymanu]

And then Dragic misses the free throw. Pretty annoying how many lucky breaks the Warriors get

[DPG21920]

MIA has a good defense - so they can get a stop

[SpurPadre]

Curry is gonna hit a three, isn't he?

[SpurPadre]

well, that was easy, thanks Waiters!

:tu
Agreed with Dijon. He was bound to regress some.
Good games by Kyle and JSimms too. Despite the fandom rivalry we make up between guys, I think there's absolutely no drama with them and they enjoy being in the same team. For Kyle I thought he looked tired at the end. I just hope he built up confidence in this stint and is readier than he was to start the season. He's shooting that 3 more too. To me all the young Spurs are very likeable. I totally expected Davis to play more too.

[ace3g]

Waiters serves up another!!!

[tonight...you]

I think you're absolutely right and it makes me sad, but bidness be's bidness...
I'm of the opinion that he's going to make the team that signs him to a bigg'un is going to be sorry.
Not Bismack Biyombo sorry, but not too far off.

Not far at all.

Dion Wadeters

[GSH]

He is not a shoot first PG. He's a shoot first small SG. He's nothing like 99% of the starting PG's today.


And he's too short to be a SG. But, to be fair, Patty's AST rate is up substantially this season, and his FTA/36 is down. I actually think he's a great backup PG. I think becoming a starter is going to expose him too much.

[timtonymanu]

Alright, Waiters. Finally not torching just the Spurs.

[r0drig0lac]

WOW!!!!!!

[TheDoctor]

LMAOOOO DION CURRY!

[dabom]

:lol

[GSH]

NOOOOO, don't blow this one Miami!!!!


Up by 3 with .6 seconds left. Just don't put Fathead on Curry.

[TheDoctor]

:lmao

[DarrinS]

:lol

[SAGirl]

Victory!
Lucky fans are we still winning games!
:flag:

[SpurPadre]

Now it's time for Giannis AnteCOOKOOFORCOCOAPUFFS to put in his end of the bargain.

[DPG21920]

I'm talking more about skillset than positions, but yeah, I agree. He's already a great back up PG overall. He's not an unwilling passer or complete ball stopper, it's just he's not a PG (skillset wise).

[thiste]

Klay shitting the bed

[TheDoctor]

Welp Kyle Lowry's 52pts game tomorrow confirmed.

[timtonymanu]

Spurs are gonna lose at Toronto tomorrow now since they love taking losses after the Warriors do. :lol

[SpurPadre]

Up by 3 with .6 seconds left. Just don't put Fathead on Curry.

Agreed 100%

[DPG21920]

Great job MIA! Now go Pelicans! Terrence Jones is going OFF.

[BatManu20]

Damn. Good shit Miami.

[timtonymanu]

Now it's time for Giannis AnteCOOKOOFORCOCOAPUFFS to put in his end of the bargain.

I'm going for Houston on this one. Keep the Clips away from the 3rd seed.

[dabom]

can cle and houston lose too? :lol

[SpurPadre]

I'm going for Houston on this one. Keep the Clips away from the 3rd seed.

Houston still too close for comfort though, bro.

[HarlemHeat37]

Horrible defense by Klay Thompson there, tbh..

[GSH]

Also... I'm sorry about the 1st gif... let me make it up to you:


That seems like a genuine act of contrition. I think. :lol

[TheDoctor]

And Terrance Jones said...NO !!! :rollin

[ElNono]

Horrible defense by Klay Thompson there, tbh..

Your boy DPOY Raymond played the same D on his previous 3, tbh... sometimes scrubs just go off, IMO...

[Dex]

Spurs win, Warriors lose, Houston loses....Cleveland about the pull the quarterfecta?

[DPG21920]

can cle and houston lose too? :lol

2 for 3. Possibly all 3.
