Game Thread: 1/6 Spurs @ Grizzlies 8:30PM CST (9:30 PM EST, 4:30 AM Riga Time)

[HI-FI]

:pop: (sanctimonious baritone) "they made more shots than us."

[bklynspursfan]

They haven't gone 2/21.

Yea. But they have 21 wins. Is that equal?

Maybe suns? Lakers?

[Nathan89]

StartLee!

[xellos88330]

Aldridge played like ass. Pretty much everyone did. Disgusting basketball IMO. I would rather have had the rookies in for a majority of the minutes.

[pgardn]

I almost can't wait until we suck so frontrunner fans like yourself leave the forum. :tu

Fan?

Thats a whimpering coward.

[bklynspursfan]

Their play of the game was a bogus call on Dedmon against VC. Lmao

[DPG21920]

Serious - APO was supposed to do game grades but had to bail last minute. I said I would try and fill in. This is a burn the tape game, does anyone care about grades tonight?

[BillMc]

A Spurs-Clippers and Dubs-Grizz second round would be scary for the top seeds. And it could happen.

[GSH]

:lmao Actively rooting against his own team.

You're going to go to your deathbed someday having spent THOUSANDS of hours hating a person you'll never have met so much that you start wishing bad things on your "favorite" team. My god that's beyond fucking pathetic. I feel sorry for you, basement kid.


He has to tell his mom he's watching porn down there, so she won't worry that he's getting weird.

[$pursDynasty]

James does more then that
And Westrbook and Harden

[pgardn]

:pop: (sanctimonious baritone) "they made more shots than us."

They clearly did.

Check the FTs.

[Robz4000]

Spurs are out in the first round regardless of opponent. This team outside Kawhi just doesn't have it. They're marginally better than the 08-10 teams but only just.

[Darius Bieber]

[Ice009]

What's the score now? I turned that rubbish off. I still think Spurs need to try and make some trades. Too many trash players on the team. Try and trade 2 or 3 guys for one decent player and sign some d-league guys to fill in.

[bklynspursfan]

Keeping them under 100 :tu

[DPG21920]

I will take that bet regardless of opponent. $500?

[HarlemHeat37]

Why the fuck did Manu sit out for so long, tbh?:lol

[spurs10]

Anderson stop shooting the ball. Murray ..lord.

[spurtech09]

This Memphis team does not scare me....

[Mikeanaro]

I hate disinterested basketball, its like a spit in the face of all us fans.

How can you say that w/o knowing the opponent. Doubtful regardless

[ElNono]

Why the fuck did Manu sit out for so long, tbh?:lol

Pop was enjoying throwback-Vince Carter, tbh

[$pursDynasty]

Pop always harps on respecting the game and opponents but he still tanks games.

[Strategic]

Spurs drank a little too much RRT coolaid. They'll bounce back from this humble pie.

[bklynspursfan]

I will take that bet regardless of opponent. $500?

I second this

[sasaint]

SEVEN POINTS in the 4th quarter.

[BatManu20]

Time for the knee-jerk reaction threads. This should be fun

No. Just start a thread where you shit on LMA.

[DPG21920]

Keeping them under 100 :tu

Under 90. And that is with not making shots at all and having to play way more transition defense than usual. MEM had scored 100+ in 7 straight games.

[spurs10]

Has Murray turned it over ever possession?

[$pursDynasty]

Dijon not even ready for garbage minutes tonight

[Cklbmk]

LMA F-

[Cry Havoc]

Synopsis of this thread: FkLA hasn't left his basement in so long that he thinks if I order cable in the Bay Area, I can watch a broadcast of the Spurs play the Grizzlies in a non-primetime game. :lol

[Robz4000]

I will take that bet regardless of opponent. $500?

:lol not that confident in that prediction; I'm just pissed at this team's play the past month. Let's see where they're at come late March. Not looking good though.

Official

[bklynspursfan]

We scored!!!!

[spursgu]

It was a pretty bad performance offensively. They competed hard on defense but man, lot's of terrible garbage offense (just straight up missing shots and FT's).

I agree with all this but I'm responding to those who posts their "fire Pop" or "1st round exit" nonsense

[Cry Havoc]

whining about first round exit

I'll put $500 on it too. You gonna actually put your money where your pussy is?

[mexicanjunior]

Yep...

[DPG21920]

Jesus christ, y'all sound like groupies. Embarrassing.

If they sound like groupies you sound like a social awkward serial killer with how much you go on and on about TP.

[SPURt]

Missing freebies and LMA playing like a just used butt plug equals balls

[sasaint]

Keeping them under 100 :tu

:lol

[BillMc]

Worst game by our rookies in a long time.

[bklynspursfan]

Under 90. And that is with not making shots at all and having to play way more transition defense than usual. MEM had scored 100+ in 7 straight games.

I just assumed they'd hit another shot haha. But yea. Their defense was pretty good considering they played without Kawhi.

Nobody hitting shots, (outside Lee), FT shooting, and some odd officiating.

There's no reason to overreact to this, but you know how it goes here

[Cry Havoc]

If they sound like groupies you sound like a social awkward serial killer with how much you go on and on about TP.

Watch out dude. Voodoo dolls are no joke.

[Mikeanaro]

This kind of inconsistency is stupid and ridiculous, like those toxic relationships, next game they will win killing their opponent, and the game after will lose in a pathetic way.

[FkLA]

Other people uphold their commitment after shitty games. What makes you special? Grow up, dude. Seriously. Smh.

[DPG21920]

:lol not that confident in that prediction; I'm just pissed at this team's play the past month. Let's see where they're at come late March. Not looking good though.

Haha - I know. It was my subtle way of walking you back a little

[SAGirl]

Simms stat padding. He can smell that contract already.

[Spurs9]

We need Melo :cry

[Cry Havoc]

Worst game by our rookies in a long time.

Kawhi's totally absent defense in this game really exposed our rooks.

I thought Deadman deserved better.

Brah - I'm short remember. So when you constantly hump my leg like this you are actually hitting my belly button.

[spurs10]

[Darius Bieber]

We need another team.

[SAGirl]

They didn't have that leadership though.

I guess it helps in their growth,
pressure situations and all but I don't think Pop will be take it easy on them. Still when Lamarcus has such a bad game...

[FkLA]

If they sound like groupies you sound like a social awkward serial killer with how much you go on and on about TP.

What does that make you for slinging insult after insult on a message board? A napoleon complex infected little guy?

[Cry Havoc]

We need another team.

No? You don't want to put money on the Spurs losing in the first round with all the shit you talk?

[pgardn]

We need another team.

YOU need another team.

Just leave you sack o depression.

[BillMc]

Is that you RodNic? :lol
:lol

[DPG21920]

Nah - it makes me a short guy who tries to contribute to this site and enjoy spurs games that gets annoyed at people like you from time to time when I should just know better.

That's on me though, not you.

[HarlemHeat37]

The lack of explosion at the PG position was painful tonight, tbh..virtually every team in the league has at least a 1 PG that can consistently penetrate and create, while the Spurs don't have anything close..

[DPG21920]

No man I think bailing on this pig show is quite understandable. Burn the tape!!

:lol Thank you - there is no point in doing game grades and that is why APO only bailed after he read Kawhi was out.

[FkLA]

Brah - I'm short remember. So when you constantly hump my leg like this you are actually hitting my belly button.

I'm pretty sure you've quoted me more times than I have. Nice try though. :lol

:lol Funny stuff again. You are on fire tonight Bill!
Thanks for the grades... I la there anything below F? Not since playing the Clippers early in the season has I seen a game like this from Lamarcus. (There was one Mavs game he only scored 5 points but Kawhi and Patty were able to win it. They really needed Lamarcus.

[FkLA]

:lol Thank you - there is no point in doing game grades and that is why APO only bailed after he read Kawhi was out.

lol you lazy ass bum

[DPG21920]

He makes such little money, but man SA should really consider moving Mills if they can get back an attacking guard. I would not move him for a draft pick (unless it's just a stupid offer like Hill) because he's still a very good player, but SA needs another slashing option.

[Ice009]

Sean said Tim was out pig hunting. lol, I think I would have rather have been doing that then watch the Spurs play without Kawhi in the lineup. Timmy is a smart guy not wasting his time on this trash.

[GSH]

lol you lazy ass bum


FkLA ....Head Of The Dick.

[Mikeanaro]

Nah
I think you should, you have been depressive since the beginning of times and that brings negative shit around here.

If Tony were 10 years younger this team would be so unstoppable. :pctoss

[FkLA]

Get rid of the back-up PG, who's main skill has always been shooting, because he can't slash. Let's leave the PG who get's paid $15 mill to slash alone though. Makes sense. :tu

[Cry Havoc]

Nah

Pussy. Scared to put your money where your shit talk is.

If this isn't a "switch off social media" game I don't know what is. In fact, shut down all modern forms of communication. Smoke signals and carrier pigeons for the rest of the season for LMA.:lol

[RD2191]

You need cable money or what bruh? I'll spot you but you gotta pay me back.

Kawhi likely saves them but he's still underrated by even some here... they have to be some Lakers troll tbh.

I mean that can't be a reason they had their worst game. Our vets have struggled before and young guys stepped up. Everyone outside of Lee and probably Manu were just not efficient and played very poorly. Dedmon was pretty good too in other areas

It happens . Just usually not to everyone at once lol

[FkLA]

You can just quote me - don't be a child.

I'm operating under the assumption that 1: TP is still the best PG and knows the offense. So losing him is a non-starter & 2) That SA wouldn't trade him anyways so you have to look elsewhere.

If you disagree with either of those 2 things, I would love to here you explain why specifically.

[Darius Bieber]

I agree.

PATFO should really draft a player like Dejounte Murray.

[Cry Havoc]

Please let me know what Bay Area cable providers will broadcast non-primetime games from Memphis and we'll talk.

:lol piggybacking on FkLA's shittalking. Could you be more of a follower?

Laughing at money when you're too poor to bet $500 on the Spurs after talking shit about them your entire fucking life.

[HarlemHeat37]

Kawhi likely saves them but he's still underrated by even some here... they have to be some Lakers troll tbh.

Tonight doesn't concern me, I was speaking more regarding the long-term outlook..Memphis isn't a concern, they don't have the type of players that give the Spurs problems(which is why the Spurs have owned them since the 2011 series), probably wouldn't be a long series if Kawhi and Gasol(Memphis is one of the few playoff teams that wouldn't be able to exploit him, defensively) are healthy..

:lol thanks

[spursistan]

Since NYE the team has looked terrible for the most part. Before it they were pretty good.
they have been on a mini slump as early in the season masked by: soft schedule, Kawhi going on tear, Lee playing way above his heads, and LMA stepping up his defensive effort....

[TampaDude]

It's obvious why we lost. Not worried as long as Kawhi (and the Spurs in general) stays healthy.

[GSH]

It's obvious why we lost. Not worried as long as Kawhi (and the Spurs in general) stays healthy.


Well let's see. 48 minutes per game x 16 games needed to win a Championships. Kawhi just needs to play 768 minutes in the postseason, and we've got a chance.
