Game Thread: Nuggets @ Spurs -- Saturday, 1/13/17 - 7:30CT (3:30am Riga)

OK. Let's start with the facts. Losing to the Lakers sucked. They are one of the worst teams in the West, and they made the Spurs look like chumps in the fourth quarter.

Yes, the Spurs are beat up and scrambling for rotations that work...but that's not an excuse for the team coughing up the ball 21 times and floating passes to the Lakers in the 4th quarter.

Fortunately, the team is back at home where they have been spectacular, so hopefully that will help them to stabilize against a Denver Nuggets team who are trying to put themselves in the mix of the playoff hunt.

Tony, Green, and Kawhi have been upgraded to questionable...which means nothing, apparently, until you see their sneakers hit the hardwood. It would be great to see at least one of them back and looking some semblance of healthy, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Either way, the team needs to stop fucking around and start executing. I don't expect them to be beating the Warriors or Rockets in their current state, but they need to stop giving up these gimme-games if they don't want to fall in the bottom end of the playoff bracket. Time to get the back on the winning track and start turning this ship around.

Shit, should be 1/13/18 in the title.

Well, that's the first of many times that will probably happen this year.

If a mod could fix that, that would be greeeat.

[phxspurfan]

Didn't the Dubs lose to the Lakers as well? Seems like they've snuck up on plenty of teams this year. Doesn't help that we have a G-League roster atm

[John B]

After that “pathetic” comment by Pops, Spurs take this no less than 10 pts. Pop will clear bench at 4th. Go Dpurs Go :flag:

[BatManu20]

The Nuggets are a .500 ball club and have lost 3 straight, with 2 of those losses coming to two of the worst teams in the league (Kings & Hawks). No reason we shouldn't win this one handily, especially coming off of our embarrassing loss last night. Spurs win by double-digits.

They have a chance if these two guys play better:

After that “pathetic” performance last night they need to come out on fire! :ihit

[dabom]

Not a faggot thread. :tu

[ace3g]

I'm getting a bad feeling Murray might have a case of the "Nando De Colo" w/ his inability to finish at the basket.

[spurs10]

Robert Johnson sang he had “Hellhounds On My Trail.” We’ve got “T-wolves On Our Trail.” If we want to at least keep our third spot, we need a win!

[Robz4000]

If everyone but Gay plays Spurs win. If Kawhi + anyone else is out, Nuggets win.

[szkorhetz]

Robert Johnson sang he had “Hellhounds On My Trail.” We’ve got “T-wolves On Our Trail.” If we want to at least keep our third spot, we need a win!
With the Warriors having a deeper bench and as we have the older team, with constant injuries, I would actually prefer to play them in the semis, rather than the WCF, TBH.

[TheGreatYacht]

Spurs blowout if Parker and Murray are the only point guards that see the court

I'd always prefer to go as far as possible in the playoffs. You can't discount the amount of experience the young guys gain going deeper into the playoffs.

Too many stupid turnovers so far. Defense looks solid at least.

Davis hit that shit from New Braunfels.

This Spurs team plays so much better without Kawhi, tbh... controversial take, tbh, but truth so far

Anderson always has a toe on the line from the corners it seems lol

I'm glad he took that shot tho. Has to do that anytime he has space

[ElNono]

How many 3s with a toe on the line did Kyle had this year? smh

[bklynspursfan]

Best start we've had in a while

[bklynspursfan]

Manu!! Wow :wow

Kawhi with that elite defense

Should've let LMA block it, he prolly secures the ball for the Spurs.

[bklynspursfan]

shoot the damn ball, fathead

He just hit from there before, idk why the hesitation now. Got up in the air undecided

[ElNono]

If that's Raymond Green, it's a foul AND1, even though the ball didn't go in

Bertans can't miss at home

Should be a 20+ point lead if not for Pop.

he has to start hitting, tbh... there's no on-off switch... he wasn't this bad in '14.... the worst part is that if he doesn't show up, we don't have a PG...

[dabom]

He played better than manu's disappearing act for 2 series minus a block. :lol

[SAGirl]

We got nothing from Fatty and very little from Kyle... it's gonna be our achilles with that unit
Kyle.. let's say he made 1 of 3... (the one with the toe on the line) ... that's as many 3s as he has taken all season in a single game. I think eventually they will fall. He should have been taking them all season, so that he continues to shoot even when they don't go in... Manu at one point was shooting something like 31% or something from 3. If he didn't keep shooting, he wasn't going to break through.

I don't criticize if he passes up one of his own so that a better shooter than himself takes that shot but if they are giving it to him he has to take it... I even think he got benched for passing up one. middle of the season is when you work out rhythm and stuff.

Patty continues to be a TO prone PG, reckless passing and he's not a Manu wizard... just passes in traffic, passes to the feet of guys, etc.

[ElNono]

He played better than manu's disappearing act for 2 series minus a block. :lol

Nah... Manu was actually the only guy that showed up against the Dubs...

Like I said, the Spurs bet on Patty, hopefully it pays off... right now, he looks like last year Horry, tbh

[dabom]

Nah... Manu was actually the only guy that showed up against the Dubs...

Didn't see him in game 1 after Kawhi went down. Any games after that was meaningless. :lmao

The passed up shots don't help, but he also plays too passive, and that play between Fatty and him that ended in a TO was awful on both of them, tbh

[ElNono]

Fatty was awful that series, tbh... better than Porker, but still awful

It's alright. Manu was shit when it mattered. He only had 1 block. :lol

If they are looking to waive someone to get another player in... or a trade... he's the obvious choice. Unless they have someone who will take Joff (who is signed for 2 years basically), Joff is going to remain in the team.

[spurs10]

Yes, you could say it was a "Crossroads" for the season. :lol
Yeah I’m glad all my “Love’s (not) In Vain!”

Nailed it. :lol

Poor little Kayleigh is having a rough post game.
Her gums have gone numb.

Just smile dear.

David in today’s nba would be a better play was great though.
He was constantly tripled team in playoffs because they had no talent around him

[LittleCriminal]

Fathead = Garbagetime Player

finally someone who understands my pain..
still missing layups, wide open 3s in garbage time..lol

I'm hoping once RGay comes back, Pop keeps the Gay/Bertans rotation and burys that garbage ass player Anderson near the locker room..

someone in this forum described him as a giannis antetoukumpo with a jumpshot.. just taller, but that athletic... I never saw him though... and those youtube films from his time are so grainy.

[Mr. Body]

DRob would be incredible in this league. No one would be able to guard him.

In other news, Tony Romo just said Tim Duncan was a Top 5 player of all time in the Titans-Pats game.

I heard that and he also said Duncan was the best player in the league for a while.

[wingster]

Why were they talking about Duncan/NBA during a playoff game?
I mean I know it was the Pats blowout of Tennessee but still.

Patriots/Spurs comparisons..pretty sure that Romo is a big basketball fan..

OT but Sam Rockwell just dropped the F bomb on SNL, lol

He thinks he is on a playground.
He gets all loose, carries the ball off a high dribble, and needs to go to Rucker.
NBA Dejuante...

He's definitely got some bad habits he has to shake loose. Just low bbiq stuff man

[duncan2k5]

This Murray is a terrible PG, Plumlee wanted to post up Davis who was fronting him... instead Murray... nope looks him off, chucks up a contested jumpshot.

meh...ive seen many point guards look off ppl....murray doesnt take enough shots to show that he consistently looks off ppl...shoot, i think he needs to look for his own shot more often...dude plays too passive out there...like he is afraid of making mistakes (hmm...i wonder why)

I wasn't talking about Dejounte but Jamal Murray, the alleged PG from the Nuggets. He's really a shooting guard. They didn't really run offense at all when he had the ball, he was terrible. That is why I said "this Murray"... Dejounte didn't get in the game until garbage time basically... my comment was when the game was contested.

The Spurs looked good but the Nuggets really don't have a PG.

[BillMc]

Nailed it. :lol

I'd lose money as a bookie. :lol

[duncan2k5]

yea... what can I say?
Those are things he should know by now. So much talent yet... :huh:huh:wtf sometimes the light isn't on.

overreacting...he is 21...wont be 22 till the year is almost done...in the past he wouldn't even be a rookie yet...he will make mistakes...we are so accustomed to having old as sh*t point guards that we arent accustomed to seeing a pg make young player mistakes...but for the most part this season he has slowed the game down when he needed to...but for whatever reason ppl hold him to a higher standard than they hold other players...ive seen every player on the spurs take ill advised shots, but they dont get called dumb or garbage because of it...shoot against us several years ago kobe took a three pointer when they were UP by one against us with like 18 seconds left on the clock...all he had to do was hold the ball and time would have run out, or we would have been forced to foul, but he was feeling it and missed horribly...we then hit the game winning shot...moral of the stort, if vets take stupid shots, expect that a 21 year old who hardly plays will too...the guy had 11 minutes today...

didn't read the whole thing...
but... it's not an overreaction. Management of the clock and controlling the pace of a game is a very, very basic PG task.

I knew that he only made one recording but I forgot it was in SA. Legend. :toast

Kawhi looked much better out there, so I guess we are heading in the right direction ... Davis was on ... now lets get some consistent lineups out there. Patty needs to got the end of the bench so Murray continues to get some minutes

[r0drig0lac]

Kawhi is so ridiculously good, that even playing at 60-70% you can see his impact on the court

[8FOR!3]

If Davis continues to play like this he could be vital for our success we have lacked fearless shooters like playoffs Gary Neal/Danny Green since them and Belinelli left. He’s the kind of shooter that can be effective in the playoffs, kind of everything we wished Matt Bonner wasn’t, he’s got the quicker trigger and he’s a better athlete. Still wish Bertans moved a little better than he did but he’s getting where we need him to be as a player.

Five years ago, Manu would've been a half foot higher and not stressing / looking so far up, though.

:lol Dick Jefferson

And dribbles too high. He gets picked spinning inside. Why not workout with Tony instead of Jamal? I mean Tony is the best at going in between trees, spinning, hiding the ball, and getting his shots up playing below the rim. Tony at his prime had one of the highest pg% and he’s a freaking guard. With Murrays physiques, I mean we expect more! The D, he got it. and he’s going to be better as a lockdown defender, and it helps to be playing with Kawhi and Danny. But offensively, especially protecting the ball. There’s Manu, one of the best going in the lane with his eurostep, freaking pioneered that shit. I mean Harden, Westbrook and all these players copying it. Murray has to be constantly working with Manu to learn that shit. I mean he’s very fortunate to be playing along with these great players. I like Murray. I think he can be the difference guarding Curry with his freakish wingspan. I wish Murray develops fast as Spurs will need him in June.

Absolutely. Situational awareness is so important to this team. And this is basketball 101 here...
