Game Thread: Spurs vs Nuggets -- Tue. (1/30) - 7:30/C (3:30am Riga Time)

[SAGirl]

Kyle to Danny oop

[DAF86]

There's Manu. No way Pop finishes a game without him these days.

[DPG21920]

Manu has to hit those open ones. Big miss. Let’s get one here.

[Leetonidas]

Warriors are getting shat on right now too. Spurs better pull this out

[sasaint]

LMA with the sweet pass to Manu :wow who blew the open trey.

[DAF86]

And there's the closer

[DPG21920]

Kyle Anderson!! What a game! Manu competing so hard.

[Robz4000]

Pop with the shitty subs, per par.

[DAF86]

The fuck? Why is Kyle out?

[$pursDynasty]

Why take Kyle out?

[DAF86]

LA can't miss that shit.

[Robz4000]

LMA ready to choke

[SAGirl]

Pop benching Kyle to close this game after the game he has... he’s had enough of him scoring :lol

[BatManu20]

Manu’s effort at 40 years old is ridiculous

[phxspurfan]

ok so without Kawhi we're basically as good as Denver. lol

[BatManu20]

Christ Aldridge get Big and finish the layup over a guard smh

[gambit1990]

Manu’s effort at 40 years old is ridiculous

[DAF86]

Pop benching Kyle to close this game after the game he has... he’s had enough of him scoring :lol

He's back. I had a feeling it was a breather, but there was no need for one, IMHO.

[Ron Swanson]

Patty does something good

[sasaint]

Manu’s effort at 40 years old is ridiculous

Yep. He only knows one way.

[DAF86]

the motherfucking closer

[DPG21920]

Help/Team defense been bad tonight but interior protection from LMA/Guards has been beastly

[BatManu20]

Patty!

[Robz4000]

Really worried that missed layup by LMA will be the difference tonight.

[ElNono]

Manu in the 4th <3

[sasaint]

Thankfully we got the big boy LMA tonight.

[Spurtacular]

Must be crunch time. Aldridge missing layups.

[BatManu20]

Kyle’s inability to shoot the 3 really hurts our spacing tbh. He’s been solid, but teams sag off him big time from distance.

[Robz4000]

What the fuck Manu?

[DPG21920]

Why foul there?

[sasaint]

Manu is suddenly a foul machine.

[DPG21920]

Big shot to make up for a really bad foul Manu.

[Robz4000]

Made up for it there at least.

[DAF86]

Best guard on the team doing best guard on the team things.

[phxspurfan]

omg Manu

[ElNono]

:pop: He's Manu Ginobili

[ElNono]

What the fuck Manu?


Why foul there?

:lol chill fellas, and enjoy the W, tbh

[boutons_deux]

He's Manu Ginobili

[Robz4000]

Great.

[daledondale]

That was close..good win.

[Robz4000]

Really worried that missed layup by LMA will be the difference tonight.

Starting to look like it.

[DAF86]

Great play call by Malone there.

[Spurtacular]

That three sh**s on my bet.

[daledondale]

That was close..good win.
Fuck. I must stop talking.

[DPG21920]

Oh my god.

[Robz4000]

Denver choked the fuck out of that there.

[DAF86]

That was close..good win.

How is the future like?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Spurs dodged a bullet, ASB can't come soon enough get Kawhi back ASAP

[ElNono]

:lol chill fellas, and enjoy the W, tbh

[timtonymanu]

Jesus fuckn Danny League

[pgardn]

Never a doubt...

[Trainwreck2100]

:lol not going for two there

[BatManu20]

Jeezus

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Warriors are getting shat on right now too. Spurs better pull this out

They aren't catching the Warriors in the standings buddy :lol

[SAGirl]

Down to the wire... that was a quality win...
:flag: Victory

[Spurtacular]

Nuggets passing up on easy 2's to go for the win. No respect.

[DPG21920]

They aren't catching the Warriors in the standings buddy :lol

:lmao Minny losing to Atlanta then Toronto

:lmao OKC losing to Washington with no John Wall

Are they a dumpster fire?

[sasaint]

:lol not going for two there

I liked it.

[SpurPadre]

Eh...I'll take the fucking dub any day, no matter how shitty it was, tbh.

[Leetonidas]

They aren't catching the Warriors in the standings buddy :lol
No shit but most of the Spurs foes are losing tonight, always nice to see the Dubs lose as well tbh

[Spurtacular]

That three sh**s on my bet.

Machine not letting me get -1.5 in play :(

[LakerHater]

Fuckn Danny Green

[Robz4000]

Spurs dodged a bullet, ASB can't come soon enough get Kawhi back ASAP

He's not coming back this season.

[daledondale]

How is the future like?
I almost shit my pants. :lol

[daslicer]

Murray with the Dennis Rodman numbers tonight.

[Budkin]

That was what you call a bullshit win! But I’ll take it.

[DAF86]

:lol not going for two there

Murray knew Manu would fuck him up someway.

[TheGreatYacht]

Green was god awful. 0/6 from three. The flashy blocks he had will hide the really poor defense he played tonight

[Spurtacular]

Machine not letting me get -1.5 in play :(

Took Jazz -5.5 consolation. Hope they don't choke away a 20 pt lead at home.

[8FOR!3]

Nuggets passing up on easy 2's to go for the win. No respect.

Maybe that's why they're a .500 team

[DAF86]

I almost shit my pants. :lol

Why the fuck did you made that comment? I honestly thought my TV transmission was delayed or something.

I thought: "if we miss here and the Nuggets miss a three at the buzzer daledondale has a faster feed". I shit you not.

[Keepin' it real]

Hurray Spurs!!!

[Spurtacular]

:lmao Minny losing to Atlanta then Toronto

:lmao OKC losing to Washington with no John Wall

Are they a dumpster fire?

Luckily I sidnt know that when i bet on the wizards.

[SAGirl]

Murray with the Dennis Rodman numbers tonight.
Needs a jumper...

[gambit1990]

loving that tony only played 17 minutes. hoping it's 0 when kawhi and rudy are healthy.

[sasaint]

Anybody know when Tony's last stint was?

[daslicer]

Needs a jumper...

Yeah I have said that for awhile. I made that Rodman reference because Rodman had a lot of games where he could have 0 pounds but would have 10-20 rebounds.

[gambit1990]

Anybody know when Tony's last stint was?
he was benched 17 seconds into the 4th quarter. if that's what you're asking.

[sasaint]

he was benched 17 seconds into the 4th quarter. if that's what you're asking.

That's it. I couldn't remember seeing him in the 4th. Thanks.

[bklynspursfan]

Minny lost to ATL. OKC losing to a John Wall-less Washington. For all of those Spurs fans that give SA crap for losing without Kawhi.

It's only us who has bad losses accoding to the cliff divers

[SpurPadre]

Green was god awful. 0/6 from three. The flashy blocks he had will hide the really poor defense he played tonight

Don't worry...TP noticed, tbh:

It's reasonable looking it from the perspective that it is a team conformed almost in it's entirety by role players.

958550256681209856
It was tough for that one fan that paid to watch the 76ers game... They have only lost 4 games at home in spite of injuries or rest games and I think that 76ers game was their worst loss at home.

Spurs need much more than 12 points and 5 assists from a starting point guard. I like him, so let's hope he can get up to 18 points 12 assists per game by the playoffs.Those stats seem unrealistic, especially if he still can't shoot.

[SAGirl]

958562372301606912
Manu has posted in La Nacion and mentioned in interviews the team is still finding an identity. This is another comment that reflects it.

If/when they get Kiwi and Rudy back they will still have to go back to the drawing board again and adjust. That’s the main reason I have doubts about postseason performances even if Kiwi and Rudy are 100%. There might not be enough time to figure out all the kinks, and build cohesion, rhythm etc. It’s getting late.

[SAGirl]

I'm sure this play will be forgotten as the season wears on but that is one of the most ridiculous passes Manu has ever thrown. Having the thought is one thing but having the ability to make that pass on NBA court in one motion is absolutely amazing.

[spurs10]

[Fireball]

weird win ... why was Aldridge pissed at the end?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

:lmao Minny losing to Atlanta then Toronto

:lmao OKC losing to Washington with no John Wall

Are they a dumpster fire?

Toronto is a top 5 team not sure what you are laughing at.

OKC and Minny could go 7 games against SA, probably even win. I'd take either of those teams top 4 players over the Spurs top 4 players any day of the week.

[Rocalcio]

Anderson with a career high under 20. :lol


I heard that several times but it's wrong since he had 20 against Warriors during last PO. You can laugh if you want but he's been the most productive player last night.

[BillMc]

Victory!:flag:

[NameLess Scrub]

Nice stat line by Kyle.

How did Pau get a -18 +/- with those stats?

[daledondale]

Why the fuck did you made that comment? I honestly thought my TV transmission was delayed or something.

I thought: "if we miss here and the Nuggets miss a three at the buzzer daledondale (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=49520) has a faster feed". I shit you not.
:lol
Because we were up 5 points, and left 50 sec or something to finish. I said "that's a game", but then they made an instant three and i said Fuck!. :lol

[TXstbobcat]

Fun game to go to and tickets were cheap on stubhub!

[Fireball]

Nice stat line by Kyle.

How did Pau get a -18 +/- with those stats?

Pau against young small ball guys is a net negative most of the time ... even when he packs the stat sheet like this

[monkeypunk]

Here's the summary:

- he raised the stock market
- he protected you from north korea
- he invented the internet
- now you better support his wall and other bills to benefit his rich ceo friends

[TXstbobcat]

weird win ... why was Aldridge pissed at the end?

Was at the game and remember LMA upset about getting a tech called on him. Not sure if that was the reason he was pissed at the end of the game.

[NameLess Scrub]

Got it

[Pavlov]

weird win ... why was Aldridge pissed at the end?Probably wanted a foul call on his last offensive rebound attempt.

[spurs10]

Fun game to go to and tickets were cheap on stubhub! Gave my tickets to a friend and they had a blast! Talk about a close one!

[DPG21920]

OKC and Minny could go 7 games against SA, probably even win. I'd take either of those teams top 4 players over the Spurs top 4 players any day of the week.

:lol You’d take the top 4 players from a team that is worse than SA without Kawhi and that loses to ATL fully healthy over SAs 4-top players who are better than MIN. You would be a very bad GM tbh..

[Spurtacular]

I heard that several times but it's wrong since he had 20 against Warriors during last PO. You can laugh if you want but he's been the most productive player last night.

:lol Even the announcers not counting fathead's garbage time points vs. Warriors.

[gospursgojas]

I actually think that pass from Manu was off the mark. He should have hit Bertans for a 3, instead the pass was ahead of Bertans and Davis turned it into a move to the basket.

[Rocalcio]

:lol Even the announcers not counting fathead's garbage time points vs. Warriors.

Did you read the last part of my message ? :rolleyes

[Spurtacular]

Did you read the last part of my message ? :rolleyes

Yea, he was the best loser you said.

[tholdren]

Nice stat line by Kyle.

How did Pau get a -18 +/- with those stats?

Because plus minus doesnt mean what you idiots think it does

[NameLess Scrub]

Because plus minus doesnt mean what you idiots think it does

Well, plus minus is just a stat. It needs to be interpreted properly. I didn't watch the game so I asked for someone to interpret it for me.

Calm down.

[Rocalcio]

Yea, he was the best loser you said.

That's something...

[TheGreatYacht]

:lmao DAF86

1 rebound as the starting Center and was absolutely cancerous all night until he got Pity garbage time free throws

[DAF86]

lol starting "center"

[tholdren]

Calm down.

There isnt a way to interpret it correctly. Other than you were on the court and x points were scored. Thats it. It means nothing
