Game Thread: Spurs @ Pelicans -- Wed. (11/22) - 7:00/C (3:00am Riga Time)

[BatManu20]

In N'awlins tonight as we take on a 9-8 Pelicans team who are winners of 6 of their last 9. This team always seems to give us trouble, especially at their place. Brow and Boogie are playing well. Will need to limit their role players tonight. Tough game but definitely winnable. Let's get it.

I think Pelicans will get the win tonight. The pelicans with Davis always tends to be a tough match up.

Sooner rather than later...

Can't see Pop playing him on this two-game road trip. Generally you wanna bring players back from a long absence at home, especially when it's one of your franchise cornerstones.

Damn, Pau.

[bklynspursfan]

Nice start

[SAGirl]

wooot that alley oop

[r0drig0lac]

Lamarcus!!!

[RD2191]

Pels will come back but nice start.

[Ron Swanson]

17-0 run

[bklynspursfan]

Early big lead... Hope they keep their foot on the pedal.

For the cliff divers, a N.O. run should be expected.

[SAGirl]

nice start.

[Ron Swanson]

Rondo :lol

[sasaint]

Rondo's shot. :lmao

[Chinook]

Mills screwed that up some how

[Ron Swanson]

Not this Gay!

[bklynspursfan]

That ball movement..

Murray got himself trapped in a corner, gotta keep that dribble alive in the corner

[SAGirl]

I don't like Rudy passing up on his shots. Part of the reason he's not doing well lately is that.

[bklynspursfan]

Joff is battling Cousins. Not a great shot, but he got the board so he earned it lol

[Chinook]

Rudy and Joff being awful so far.

[SAGirl]

Rudy has been a fuck up machine lately.

[SAGirl]

bad defense from Rudy too.
:vomit:

[bklynspursfan]

Manu still sacrificing his body. Idk if people realize the degree of difficulty that takes, especially against a guy like Cousins

[Chinook]

Bad call on that charge. One of the things that's wrong with basketball.

[sasaint]

Man, our second unit is cold and flat.

[r0drig0lac]

my man Bertans in

[SAGirl]

nice shot Dijon

[Chinook]

nice shot Dijon

Really sad that that's the highlight of the bench unit so far.

[Ron Swanson]

Manu with the patented buzzer brick. :lol

[sasaint]

Kyle stuffing Jameer. I love it!

[SAGirl]

I am going to jump on that bandwagon... I don't see minutes for Joff, play Bertans right now until Kiwi gets back, then figure stuff later. some nights I also prefer Bertans to Gay, since Gay shot selection is :vomit:

[hater]

Manure turding it up

[r0drig0lac]

great play by Aldridge

[bklynspursfan]

Great pass from Manu and finish by LMA

[sasaint]

LMA!

[SAGirl]

Dijon good decision making. nice sequence.

[bklynspursfan]

I am going to jump on that bandwagon... I don't see minutes for Joff, play Bertans right now until Kiwi gets back, then figure stuff later. some nights I also prefer Bertans to Gay, since Gay shot selection is :vomit:

I think a Gay regression was expected. But he can still be a game changer. Doesn't give the 3 point shooter Bertans does, but still able to get himself to the line, back guys down, etc...

Joff I agree about, tho I think he'll still get some minutes. Pop values blue collar guys who battle the way he does

[SAGirl]

I liked that rebound by DAvis... good to see.

[bklynspursfan]

Freaking turnovers

[Chinook]

Two shitty plays by Kyle there.

[sasaint]

The refs do NOT call any other player in the league for traveling on that LMA shuffle.

[Robz4000]

Bench really killed momentum.

[bklynspursfan]

The refs do NOT call any other player in the league for traveling on that LMA shuffle.

Cousins has done it twice, no call. Same shit

[Chinook]

Damn it. I don't like this time-out. Third one already.

[KDKSpurs24]

I’m in the building tonight. Better not lose!

[bklynspursfan]

Dam Pau lol

[Ron Swanson]

This game got ugly in a hurry.

[bklynspursfan]

Another obvious travel smh

[sasaint]

Spurs screw up a great Kyle steal.

[SAGirl]

Kyle 3, damn toe on line?

[Robz4000]

Manu should be benched the restimate of the way.

[bklynspursfan]

Kyle 3

Long 2 :/

[Robz4000]

Another large lead choked away, what else is new?

[bklynspursfan]

That's on Murray. Rondo shot it and he wanted to leak out instead of boxing out Rondo. Fundamental stuff

[hater]

Manure es basura

[SAGirl]

starting to hate Joff. its like there is not big protecting the rim at aall.

[SAGirl]

That's on Murray. Rondo shot it and he wanted to leak out instead of boxing out Rondo. Fundamental stuff
agree Murray was out of position both times.

[sasaint]

Spurs have scored like 11 points this quarter. :rolleyes

[bklynspursfan]

Officiating has been garbage

[TheGreatYacht]

Wtf?!?! I thought you couldn't get and ones on tip ins?!?!?!

[hater]

Cant believe pop keeping manure in

[DAF86]

Game will get out of reach in this minutes remaining. :lol

[sasaint]

Manure es basura

Estamos de acuerdo.

[bklynspursfan]

Game will get out of reach in this minutes remaining. :lol

Out of reach? Did u miss the OKC game?

[SAGirl]

Pop has to spare manu this. live with someone else's mistakes. IF its Dijon or Kyle, they hopefully learn from it. Manu not having a good game.

[sasaint]

Cant believe pop keeping manure in

I have been on vacation, missing the last few games. What happened to BP3?

[Robz4000]

Lauvergne is fucking awful too.

[hater]

I have been on vacation, missing the last few games. What happened to BP3?

Needs to get over himself - pop

[NASpurs]

Wtf?!?! I thought you couldn't get and ones on tip ins?!?!?!

I was thinking the same thing. I guess that only applies if the front of your jersey says "Spurs".

[r0drig0lac]

Manu sucks today

[TheGreatYacht]

What is Manure bringing to the table?! :lmao

[LittleCriminal]

Anderson getting shat on is what's happening per usual... Gah Please Leonard come back!

[Budkin]

Another epic choke job

[DAF86]

Out of reach? Did u miss the OKC game?

I'm getting tired of these over the top homers, tbh.

[Chinook]

Manu's been god awful.

[TimDunkem]

Manu's clock awareness has been bad this season.

[NASpurs]

Going into the half almost losing by double digits while you were once up by 15+ points. :lol

[Darius Bieber]

God this team is trash

[sasaint]

Pels wins the quarter 31-13. Spurs with the meltdown on offense AND defense.

[TheGreatYacht]

Our starting backcourt with 2 points in 24 minutes combined

[bklynspursfan]

I'm getting tired of these over the top homers, tbh.

I guess you're an over the top drama queen? Seriously the game is gonna get out of reach in 1:30 at a 6 point lead?

Hilarious man

[timtonymanu]

Fucking predictable choke as usual.

[SAGirl]

Lauvergne is fucking awful too.
hes bad. I cant remember anything good he has done this game. (or the last one, or the one b4, you get the point)

[sasaint]

Needs to get over himself - pop

Like Peloton?

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Bench's been beyond awful.

[SPURt]

In a season chocked full of assy quarters, that was one of the assiest.

[cjw]

Surprising that Murray, Manu and Joffrey are all -15 and Gay -11?

That plus/minus tells you everything you need to know about the first half. They’re all trash.

[timtonymanu]

They got lucky our two bigs got in foul trouble because they were getting dominated by Gasoftdridge

[TheGreatYacht]

Anderson getting shat on is what's happening per usual... Gah Please Leonard come back!
Him running the point is cringeworthy. Got bailed out by a foul and then left Joffrey in an island

[timtonymanu]

Lauvergne is fucking awful too.

Dude is trash. He makes David West look better.

[NASpurs]

In a season chocked full of assy quarters, that was one of the assiest.

Speaking of ass, I think the Pels have some shit on their dicks after that quarter.

[TheGreatYacht]

Typical Spurs not showing up against above .500 teams :lmao

Signs of a paper tiger team that feasts on rodent bottom dwellers

[DAF86]

I guess you're an over the top drama queen? Seriously the game is gonna get out of reach in 1:30 at a 6 point lead?

Hilarious man

No, I'm not. Just look at my posting history.

And of course an 8 pt game is not out of reach. I was fucking around, I don't know why you have to have a stick up your ass and quote every cheeky comment literally.

But these type of runs do tend to set the temperature of the game. Is very unlikely that the Spurs will come back from that second quarter meltdown.

[Robz4000]

hes bad. I cant remember anything good he has done this game. (or the last one, or the one b4, you get the point)

:lol people have been saying he was great before his injury but in reality he's done next to nothing positive at all this season

[TheGreatYacht]

No, I'm not. Just look at my posting history.

Don't waste your time with that rim licker.

:cry don't criticize muh team :cry
:cry I bitch more than the people I say bitch about everything :cry

[NASpurs]

Rudy's nosedive has been alarming. I hope it's due to conditioning and hitting some kind of wall instead of the signs of a player not being in the league anymore in the next few years.

[bklynspursfan]

No, I'm not. Just look at my posting history.

Cause a lot of these panicky end of the world posts are posted seriously lol. I simply referenced the OKC game cause it's not like these guys aren't capable of a comeback, let alone an 8 point game.

I wouldn't say it's very unlikely either. The fact that they played sooo bad, I think it's very unlikely they play that bad again and do come back in the 3rd. 13 point quarter isn't exactly normal for these guys despite how up and down they've looked

[NASpurs]

:lol people have been saying he was great before his injury but in reality he's done next to nothing positive at all this season

At this point, I rather have David Lee unretire.

[bklynspursfan]

:lol people have been saying he was great before his injury but in reality he's done next to nothing positive at all this season

He battles in the middle for rebounds and is a good passer. He's struggling to finish tho, that's something Lee was great at. He's like Lee without the offense. There's some positive, but he's gotta get better finishing

[cjw]

Our starting backcourt with 2 points in 24 minutes combined

Deflecting or completely uninformed comment by someone who’s watching the box score and not the game. They’re not the problem tonight by any means. They’ve only taken four shots and aren’t turning the ball over (1 TO) while creating turnovers + rebounding without fouling. Way more than can be said about Murray and Manu. They’ve been atrocious.

[TheGreatYacht]

Rudy's nosedive has been alarming. I hope it's due to conditioning and hitting some kind of wall instead of the signs of a player not being in the league anymore in the next few years.
Needs to start. Don't care if it's over Fathead or Green. He's wasting his talents ball watching Ginose and Deounte

[Robz4000]

At this point, I rather have David Lee unretire.

I wanted him back from the get go tbh; even with his limitations on the defensive end he fit in great with the team.

[hater]

Rudy's nosedive has been alarming. I hope it's due to conditioning and hitting some kind of wall instead of the signs of a player not being in the league anymore in the next few years.

Lol so what does that make of Hamburger Mills, gasoft or manure? :lol

You do realize that the OKC game is the complete opposite (from the Spurs point of view) of this one right? The visitor team jumps to a big lead early, and then the home teams comes from behind and getd in control. The OKC game is the least example you would want to give when arguing in favour of the Spurs chances of winning this game.

[RD2191]

:lol this team is predictably pathetic without kawhi.

If they end up losing the game, it was on that Q...
There was a game this season on the road against the Wolves... the Spurs had an awful 2nd Q and lost it 39-19. They competed hard the 3rd and 4th Q, even won the 3rd Q, but they really lost the game in the 2nd Q. Never could quite make a comeback.

The team has too many guys making mistakes.

[TheGreatYacht]

Worst starting backcourt in NBA history.

[boutons_deux]

Spurs can't shoot

[duncan2k5]

Pop has to spare manu this. live with someone else's mistakes. IF its Dijon or Kyle, they hopefully learn from it. Manu not having a good game.

Completely agree... We have to set up our future... Playing Manu accomplishes nothing when he is like this... He won't magically get better... He is 40

[r0drig0lac]

lmao Pop

That's fair , but it also just happened, so it's fresh in these guys minds. And this deficit was no where near the OKC deficit. So who knows, anything can happen. If it's close in the 4th , that's a great sign.

[SAGirl]

Pau is having a great game. Earning those mills .. Go Pau

[bklynspursfan]

Completely agree... We have to set up our future... Playing Manu accomplishes nothing when he is like this... He won't magically get better... He is 40

He won't get better of course. But he also has games where he is a difference maker. Much bigger difference than some 'younger' guys who play similar minutes.

If someone else is playing better, they should play his minutes , but he's going to get in the game again .

[sasaint]

C'mon, Sean... Cousins and Davis the BEST?!?!?!

[SAGirl]

bad foul called on Rudy Gay.. he just can't catch a break. Spurs in trouble if the bench continues this trend.

[bklynspursfan]

Can't blame Manu this time lol

Also they would've called a travel on LMA on that Davis drive

[NASpurs]

:lol Jesus... almost time to bail on this shit. I'll give it to the end of the quarter.

[TheGreatYacht]

Fatty Mills is a god damn joke :lmao don't care how many times the forum midget spams the forum with him

[RD2191]

:lmao spurs

[Amuseddaysleeper]

This team is so god damn sad to watch

[duncan2k5]

Why is Bryn and Patty in at the same time? Worst defensive backcourt you could possibly have

[SAGirl]

That's just pitiful.

[TheGreatYacht]

Gasol get fouled during a tip in, and it's called on the floor :lmao

Swear to god these rules only apply to us

[Darius Bieber]

This team is barely the tenth best in the league. Trash ass team.

[r0drig0lac]

ugly offense game over

[sasaint]

Embarrassing.

[TheGreatYacht]

Why is this ginger with no shoulders and 6 fingers on the floor? :lol

[NASpurs]

:lol happy Thanksgiving, that's game

[DAF86]

L incoming.

Predictable, tbh. Pelicans are always a pain in the ass, even with Kawhi available.

[Robz4000]

What an embarrassment

[SAGirl]

This is going to be a loss... at least let the young players learn, and for Pop figure out the bench problem.

[NASpurs]

At least the Dubs are losing by almost 20... I guess... shrug.

[Leetonidas]

Another game spurs will fail to hit 100 points. Our offense has been a complete dumpster fire recently

[daslicer]

I expected this game to be a loss. The last few years the Pelicans have been a tough match up for the Spurs.

[TheGreatYacht]

Crazy what happens when this paper tiger team doesn't beat up on the Mavs, Bulls, Suns, Hawks and Hornets....

[SAGirl]

Joff -27 in 8 minutes. You can't make that up... wow:wow

[TheGreatYacht]

Crazy what happens when this paper tiger team doesn't beat up on the Mavs, Bulls, Suns, Hawks and Hornets....
Oh shit, Hornets and Mavs coming up on the schedule. Expect the hot takes about how great we are

Yea... specially at their home.

I have been watching the Thunder-Warriors game. Always pretty entertaining to watch the Warriors get blown out. Hopefully the Thunder can hold the lead. I like the intense hatred both Durant and Westbrook have for each other especially after they got into it a few minutes ago.

[bklynspursfan]

Back to the starters even tho they've been no better since the 1st. See if they have some fight left

[TheGreatYacht]

Starting backcourt with 2 points in 37 minutes :lmao cjw

That's true. But this game has been entertaining so far watching Golden State lose their composure.

[spursistan]

Fuckin pathetic performance...

And Fatty Mills still starting while Forbes gets DNPs :lmao

[TheGreatYacht]

That fella with the gigantic cranium is pretty useless when he's not wide open under the rim

[SAGirl]

I like that Kyle hasn't given up in this game.

[Darth_Pelican]

:lmao

[SAGirl]

Fuckin pathetic performance...

And Fatty Mills still starting while Forbes gets DNPs :lmao
Not going to rag on Mills that much bc truly the bench crapped this game away, but Forbes should be a regular part of the bench. Ginobili is heroballing too much and at 40 that is a bad thing.

[Budkin]

This team is a fucking mess right now.

[timtonymanu]

Lol “chill guys we’re only down 8.”

[TheGreatYacht]

I like that Kyle hasn't given up in this game.
Unfortunately at the cost of any potential comebacks.

[spursistan]

I'm officially for trading our 1st round pick to jettison Mills.

[TheGreatYacht]

Lol “chill guys we’re only down 8.”
:lol bklynspurmsfan

[LittleCriminal]

Anderson is trash as a starter..I understand why he's playing starting minutes but four years into the system, I'd say it's a lost cause already. Trade this scrub asap.

[Darius Bieber]

I was wrong... it was actually supposed to be Pelicans by 30+.. where are all the delusional Spur homers now?

[NASpurs]

I have been watching the Thunder-Warriors game. Always pretty entertaining to watch the Warriors get blown out. Hopefully the Thunder can hold the lead. I like the intense hatred both Durant and Westbrook have for each other especially after they got into it a few minutes ago.

Yeah I hope they hold the lead too because we know how prevalent choking is with them. Is possible to choke away a 22 point lead late in the 3rd quarter? :lol

[Robz4000]

Mills makes me want to stop watching basketball.

[Darius Bieber]

:lol bklynspurmsfan

[TimDunkem]

[Robz4000]

Oh shit, Hornets and Mavs coming up on the schedule. Expect the hot takes about how great we are

Hornets ain't bad tbh; don't see the Spurs winning Saturday at any rate.

[SPURt]

Speaking of ass, I think the Pels have some shit on their dicks after that quarter.
I’m afraid to know what there dicks look like after this awesome 3rd

[SAGirl]

Boogie is such a nice passer out of doubles.

[NASpurs]

Holy shit, I just checked the Spurs/Pelicans score. :lol

At least Ma Touches got his 14 shots. All is great in the world with him.

[TheGreatYacht]

This is the worst officiating crew since Scott Foster and that faggot Bill Kennedy were in the same game

[SAGirl]

Rudy continues to be bad. legit I am hoping he doesn't pick up his player option for next season.

[bklynspursfan]

:lol bklynspurmsfan

https://youtu.be/q0tnCdJQwTE

[NASpurs]

I’m afraid to know what there dicks look like after this awesome 3rd

Probably some blood on their tips and a full rectal prolapse by the Spurs.

[TheGreatYacht]

Rudy continues to be bad. legit I am hoping he doesn't pick up his player option for next season.
He better. He's the best SF we have since Kawhi is gone.

[sasaint]

Rudy continues to be bad. legit I am hoping he doesn't pick up his player option for next season.

6-7 games ago, it was a different story. Streaks... I hope we see his play stabilize at a good level for a 6th man.

[Mikeanaro]

He is not really gay you idiots.

[KDKSpurs24]

Definitely not an exciting game for me to be at anymore. Was great to start the first and then... man we need Kawhi back. I don’t feel like we have any structure. Different rotations all the damn time.

“Stay ready” :pop:

[spursistan]

By the time the schedule balances out this team will be hovering just above .500 as long as Kawhi is out..

[SAGirl]

6-7 games ago, it was a different story. Streaks... I hope we see his play stabilize at a good level for a 6th man.
not sure really. He had maybe 3 or 4 good games, and from them on it's been a free fall.
what I hate about his game is bbiq on offense is terrible. It really took many games of this for me to say anything, but he's been terrible. Sure some game he can get hot and look like a star making a lot of bullshit contested shots but for now, I don't approve of his shot selection.

[tholdren]

Watching thunder warriors... the nba is just shitty. Between how in the hell are these guys considered talented, nick young, its just shocking to watch a generational superstar, melo, look like a rec league hero baller. The best player on the court is a pg who has 25 shots at the end of 3 qtr. Its all just a media hyped facade. Ps dion waiters is a star, and best player, on an nba team. Boycot nba

Mills is such a worthless sack of shit. Might be the biggest blunder patfo has ever committed.

[Mikeanaro]

Lauvergne stinks, not even a third of Dedmon´s left ball.

[cjw]

Starting backcourt with 2 points in 37 minutes :lmao cjw (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=42093)

God is Mills awful. But team has played fine with Danny out there tonight despite the lack of scoring.

[spurs1990]

Just saw the boxscore.

They got outscored 38 points in the 2nd/3rd quarters.

How does Popovich not get some blame for that shitshow?

[DAF86]

Definitely not an exciting game for me to be at anymore. Was great to start the first and then... man we need Kawhi back. I don’t feel like we have any structure. Different rotations all the damn time.

“Stay ready” :pop:

Tbh

[hater]

Sadly we have now one of the worst coaches in the nba

Pop is beyond washed up

[Darius Bieber]

All you idiots who think this team will be magically fixed once Kawhi comes back. It doesn’t work that way. We still have soft bigs. We still have an abysmal backcourt. This team is trash.

[SAGirl]

By the time the schedule balances out this team will be hovering just above .500 as long as Kawhi is out..
This is all about staying afloat, winning the games you are supposed to win, give experience to the youngins and do some early season evaluations on players.

[Trill Clinton]

Can I get a non troll response as to how we're losing so bad? I stopped watching in the 1st qtr.

In past years Pop could play the mad scientist and still win. But without Kawhi and Tony, Pop should be trying to stabilize the team not pull his usual military deconstruction gambit.

This team will compete for a ring. The nba is full of bums.

[cjw]

Can we please play the Hawks or Bulls again?

[LittleCriminal]

Lol hating on Rudy gay...
Man the lengths these sorry ass trolls will go to.. talking lip about an elite scorer who is coming off a serious injury.. then turn around and say Anderson is better player.. lol

[spursistan]

Mills is such a worthless sack of shit. Might be the biggest blunder patfo has ever committed.
The sad thing is that he got actually rewarded despite stinking up on our way to a sweep..Can't remember any role player to getting +10 millions salary despite ending the playoff on such an ugly note....

Mind boggling shit..

[SAGirl]

nice pass Gay to Dijon has to be said. :tu

Exactly.

Odds of winning games are 100xs better with Leonard in the lineup as opposed to Anderson. But whatever.

[SAGirl]

Rudy finally getting hot. its garbage time, but it's a good outcome... Dijon has had some nice plays too.

That would still be the Scola trade tbh.

Just like it's been the last few years. Experiment the regular season, see what you have, then tighten it up post all star break/playoffs.

Injuries obviously haven't helped with having somewhat consistent rotations

[LittleCriminal]

What did you expect?

Mind boggling how some people have no logic. I guess I'm just tired of reading shit takes

[Trainwreck2100]

That would still be the Scola trade tbh.

there were outside factors there, Scola buying his contract out with money he got from a chinese shoe company being the biggest.

[tholdren]

That would still be the Scola trade tbh.

2011 draft

[daslicer]

Didn't watch the game but it seems like Murray and Gay played well in garbage time.

[TheGreatYacht]

With Simmons gone, Rudy is the biggest threat to Giant Cranium. Connect the dots :lmao

[ElNono]

det 3rd quarter... smh

[superbigtime]

Mills makes me want to stop watching basketball.

[Arcadian]

:lol Spurs and Warriors both lost by 17

[SAGirl]

nor having young guys who need the experience, or the fact there are guys who are new to the team like Rudy and Joff.
