Lee is starting tonight

[itzsoweezee]

This geezer is so fucking predictable.

[Robz4000]

Spurs actually got off to a good start last game with Lee in the SL. As long as he utilizes Bertans if scoring becomes a premium/Lee becomes unplayable it's fine.

[Darius Bieber]

"Pop's secret weapon". God our coach sucks, getting outcoached by rookie ass Fizdale. Meanwhile, the rest of the actual contenders are enjoying and lolligagging through to the second round.

[spursistan]

I'm afraid he is going to be West 2.0. Lee truly has no business playing more than 20 minutes-- more so since he's been slumping for the past month..

If you're giving up defense, might as well play more Pau who has a height advantage and has better range..

Yea I thought the same, it was more the issue he played Lee for a bunch of defensive possessions and 33 minutes that was the issue. They actually had a good start with Lee.

[spurraider21]

starting bonner turned it around against okc in 2014 tbh... you never know

I am afraid of that too... hopefully he plays well/better than West was for Pop in 2016 and Pop doesn't stretch the minutes... like I said above.

[SAGirl]

Let's root for Lee.
:flag::lol

Actually, Apalisoc heard those rumors Bertans was in the conversation to start as well. I got to think Becky or someone in the coaching staff was advocating for him and Pop went with the veteran over Bertie ... Let's hope Lee takes advantage of that and doesn't make Pop regret it.

He at least hustles for boards and what not. He shows far more passion and fight than West did. Wasnt that long ago, he would finish around the rim with ease and dunk all over guys. Need more of that

[TheGreatYacht]

Again. It wasn't the starting lineup that was the problem last game. It was the putrid bench. Everything they touch turns into shit.

Free Simmons, Bertans, and Murray

[ducks]

Maybe Denmon off bench will bring energy

[jermaine]

I love David Lee... fuck yal talking about!?!

[jermaine]

Maybe Denmon off bench will bring energy

Maybe Bretans off the bench with Gasol

[hater]

:lmao 40 point blowout loss

Lee can grab a rebound, so I'll take him over West. Gasol is wasted in the starting lineup since he and Aldridge get in each other's ways. Is it really a surprise that Gasol's offense game has blown up ever since being made the sixth man? I have been wanting Gasol as the Spurs sixth man since 2014.

Bingo. Did anyone really think Pop was gonna start a rookie in a pivotal Game 5?

Do want to see Davis get a good chunk of minutes, though. Should be the 4th big off the bench, assuming Dedmon is still under the weather.

West was very good in the regular season last year and collapsed in the playoffs. I sure hope the same doesn't happen to Lee.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

You guys really rather have Bonner 2.0? :lol

Currently a -9 and easily the worst impact for any Spurs player

[jermaine]

Maybe Bretans off the bench with Gasol

[timtonymanu]

Aldridge you fucking loser

[jermaine]

They're praising two people.... Kawhi an Lee!!!

He sucks. Of course the worst poster on this site loves David Lee.

[MultiTroll]

Cold beers and then one of the SpursTalk women to give Lee a massage

Fabulous game. :toast

[cd98]

Lee played well. Played with a spark that was needed in the starting line up.

Clutch too.
102-97 after yet another Connoley basket. At the Spurs end Lee had a great zip pass for the assist to Kwa for the extended lay up.
Next trip up floor and Fat Gasol had ball. Strip by Lee another zip pass to Kwa who got two FTs off the cheapy wrist pull by Connoley.

That's a 4 point swing and you know Pop is fully capable of choking off a lead.

[TheGreatYacht]

Excellent floor positioning once again. Always at the right place under the rim.

Lol deadman

Idk why you say Lol Dedmon.... Lee is a proven champion an was a hugh part of GS' s championshchampionship team! He only lost his spot to Draymon Green due to injury. Dedmon started playing hella late.. there's nuttin to Lol about.

[Robz4000]

Lee was amazing in the fourth. Not so much starting, but that's mostly due to Conley destroying everyone on the Spurs outside Kawhi. Lee was solid on ZBo, which is more than enough.

[stu scotts eye]

I think those timely double teams (or even the flash/fake double team) was huge in throwing off fat, dark, ninja turtles rythym.

[tholdren]

people forget how great lee and dedmon were the entire season. come on man

[timtonymanu]

David West would have missed those rebounds. It wasn't always pretty, but Lee stepped up huge today.

[spurraider21]

lee always manages to dunk on bigger guys :lol... no clue how he gets the ball through every time

[tholdren]

He sucks. Of course the worst poster on this site loves David Lee.

like I said... ban
