GT Grizzlies @ Spurs: Monday 7:30 PM CST, 3/5/2018

[Hoops Czar]

You rang?

Literally the only team the Spurs can beat lately are teams trying to lose.

[$pursDynasty]

Grizz are tanking hard
JayMychal ain't

[TheGreatYacht]

No reason Danny and Tony shouldn't be starting. Pop needs to get over himself
Completely agreed.

[MoSpur02]

Gasol has range

[sasaint]

That's a basket!

[TheCultOfPersonality]

That's an and-1. Why that's not an and-1?

[TheGreatYacht]

Sorry, Kyle. The Spurs aren't allowed to get and-ones. It's in the rule book.

[TE]

Refs suck tbh

[MoSpur02]

Should've called a timeout

[Robz4000]

:lmao Spurs desperately trying to find a way to lose

[Chinook]

Sean needs to shut the hell up. You don't play not to lose up two possessions with three minutes to play. Way too many possession regardless.

And he's STILL misleading people about the continuation rule.

[sasaint]

That's an and-1. Why that's not an and-1?

Didn't gather. :rolleyes

[TheGreatYacht]

Tony was open, Kyle. You were too busy pointing for Bertans to cut smdh

[Leetonidas]

Choke in progress

[Darius Bieber]

Holy fuck, we are the least clutch team in the league.

[TE]

Foul on Aldridge very ticky tack, TP got fouled driving, Kyle's suppose to be an And-one.

[ElNono]

The tank is real

[Rito3d30]

wow dramatic

[Bill_Brasky]

You gotta be fuckin kidding me

[NASpurs]

I wonder who Pop is going to rest for the Warriors game. Don't want to show them your full deck of cards. Hopefully he rests HOTS, Mills and Joff.

[Budkin]

Holy shit they’re gonna tie.

[sasaint]

:lmao Spurs desperately trying to find a way to lose

Refs helping them, tbh.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Why Spurs Why?!

[Bill_Brasky]

Make one and gtfo

[Budkin]

How did he miss??

[TE]

Patty was in for a defensive assignment. Just unreal

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Thank goodness.

[DPG21920]

:lmao Mills getting tossed like a rag doll.

[hater]

I wonder who Pop is going to rest for the Warriors game. Don't want to show them your full deck of cards. Hopefully he rests HOTS, Mills and Joff.

:lmao full deck of cards???

These fucking scrubs??

[bbarry]

:lmao if we lose this.

[NASpurs]

LMA missing clutch free throws? YOU DON'T SAY!

[TE]

Lol

[davi78239]

Dammit. Lucky

[MVPCues]

Dude just threw Mills to the floor like a doll.

[Chinook]

Fuck.

[bbarry]

pop looks relieved :lmao

[Bill_Brasky]

Worst you could ever feel about a W.

[Budkin]

LMAWFUL

[Robz4000]

:lol how was that not an And-1?

[NASpurs]

Too bad for the Grizz, they ran out of time. Could had this game.

[SAGirl]

Spurs still trying to choke this. :lol

[davi78239]

I'm rooting for losses.

[SPURt]

Prime Marc > Prime Pau

[TE]

Sweet baby jesus. This is what Spurs fandom has been reduced to. Happy for the win but how times have changed...

[HI-FI]

Thank God we could beat the Grizzlies.

who will it be?

:lmao

[timtonymanu]

LaSoftus and his dumb IQ play that almost happened there :lmao

[MoSpur02]

Letting JaMychal Green go was a mistake. Wish they would have resigned him when they had the chance.

[SAGirl]

Well I learned that Marc Gasol is still worth trading for. He still wants to win and the Grizz are wasting him this season.

[NASpurs]

We beat the worst team in the NBA. Fire up those barges!

[tholdren]

Im better than mills murray and pau. If you are reading this, so are you

[Budkin]

Part of me was rooting for the choke there just for shits and giggles.

[timtonymanu]

3 straight losses coming up.

[Bill_Brasky]

Kyle should have had an and 1 near the end there. No question. He had clearly gathered the ball. Fuck that ref.

[BillMc]

Victory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:flag::downspin:

[TE]

We beat the worst team in the NBA. Fire up those barges!

SPAM motherfucker!

[Darius Bieber]

3 straight losses coming up.

Each by 20+ tbh

[John B]

Almost lost to the worst record team at home?? What’s up with the turnovers the the stretc? I mean really this team has lost its composure

[TheCultOfPersonality]

:lol how was that not an And-1?

If you're talking about Marc's last shot it wasn't even a foul. It was so obvious even the Grizzlies' commentators said it wasn't a foul.

[$pursDynasty]

We don't win this game if HOTS doesn't close it out. Dijon looked like crap against crappy pg's

[SAGirl]

Kyle should have had an and 1 near the end there. No question. He had clearly gathered the ball. Fuck that ref.
I agree that was a 3 pt play he was screwed out of.

[Robz4000]

3 straight losses coming up.

Shit, I don't think they win another game until SAC in April.

[TheDoctor]

Good to see Mills back to his duty of towel waver. Know your role bitch.
:lol

[Mikeanaro]

THEY WON THE RING!

[$pursDynasty]

HOTS drug the scrubs

[SAGirl]

We don't win this game if HOTS doesn't close it out. Dijon looked like crap against crappy pg's
That is true... Tony came to play.
Props to Pop recognizing hot hands and who was having a better game. Team still nearly lost this game.. but hopefully Pop learned some things.

[NASpurs]

SPAM motherfucker!

Spurs Plummet After March?

[K...]

What if that's the last win in San Antonio ever?

[BillMc]

Tony, Kyle and Davis....:bobo

[MoSpur02]

dabom needs to start the next three GTs coming up. No offense to anyone else.

[tholdren]

We don't win this game if HOTS doesn't close it out. Dijon looked like crap against crappy pg's

He fucking sucks just be real

[Mikeanaro]

LOL MURRAY OVERRATED SCRUB! ITS ALL ABOUT HAVING FUN!

[$pursDynasty]

Dabom picking his spots

[BillMc]

Would really like to see White get a shot in there. Especially on days DJ struggles.

[SpurPadre]

We can't even tank right, smh...

[MoSpur02]

Props to Parker for leading the team. Props to Anderson and Green for stepping up as well.

[SAGirl]

Unfortunately it seems as murray has got into loyalty territory w pop. Sad.

[SAGirl]

970864562374369282
fired up entire team with that play.

[$pursDynasty]

This version of MVParker, is what Pop was trying to not use until the playoffs, just like last year. Remember how Tony played in the playoffs until he was injured? Desperate times called for desperate measures since LMA was a shadow of his typical play.

[sasaint]

Kyle should have had an and 1 near the end there. No question. He had clearly gathered the ball. Fuck that ref.

If Pop really wanted to incur fines, he should be complaining about getting reffed in a few obvious instances like that obvious non-call.

[Robz4000]

We can't even tank right, smh...

Eh, they prolly only win one more game this season regardless of this game. Still looking like they could fall as far as 11th in the West if the Lakers keep playing well.

[sasaint]

Has Pop backed the wrong horse?

[tholdren]

Except pau and kl who were crying

[sasaint]

White has never had an opportunity to compete with Murray for minutes, and I doubt he will going forward, either.

[Budkin]

3 straight losses coming up.

I could see us possibly beating OKC because they really aren’t that good.

[BillMc]

Has Pop backed the wrong horse?

White sample size is too small to know, but I've liked everything I've seen of him. He seems to be a more natural playmaker than DJ, but Pop taught Tony to be a playmaker so who knows.

[sasaint]

I posted similar sentiments about White in another thread. Especially after BP3 got benched for good, I just haven't understood why Pop has refused to give White any minutes. As for sample size, I posted in yet another thread how little time White is getting compared to other Spurs first round picks. Unless White suddenly gets a load of minutes he is going to log less than half as many as his predecessors.

[SpurPadre]

Hard to fathom that but in this season, anything is possible.

[BillMc]

That's a real shame. Guard logjam should clear out a little next year (I guess) if Manu retires, we lose Forbes and maybe Danny. Not sure I want to lose Danny for Patty but that's another discussion.

Gross just thinking about it tbh.

[BillMc]

Agreed Doc.

[LakerHater]

So Tony Parker says Pau Gasol hurt his shoulder and will probably miss game vs Oakland Warriors

[K...]

Jof jof jof the last survivor

[DPG21920]

So Tony Parker says Pau Gasol hurt his shoulder and will probably miss game vs Oakland Warriors

According to most here that is a good thing.

[spurs10]

Also heard Rudy Gay has a busted eardrum and that’s why he exited the game. The hits keep coming!

[Spurtacular]

Missed this one and the Lakers game, too. Will have to see if I get around to watching them or not.

[daslicer]

So Tony Parker says Pau Gasol hurt his shoulder and will probably miss game vs Oakland Warriors

Pau always tends to be MIA against the Warriors. He won't be missed for that game.

[SAGirl]

How did that happen? I missed that.

[dabom]

dabom needs to start the next three GTs coming up. No offense to anyone else.

[spurs10]

How did that happen? I missed that.
I didn’t see it either. Heard someone on Spurs Rewind, not just a fan, but someone with WOAI saying it and also saying Pau had hurt his shoulder. Pop in the postgame just said he was ‘banged around a little’ and didn’t mention Gay’s ear. I hope it’s not true. Sounds painful.

[LakerHater]

yeah they say Rudy blew out his eardrum, will have test tomorrow

[NASpurs]

970879082522128384

So Gasol fucked up his shoulder and Gay blew out his eardrum? Yeah dabom (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=47543) should definitely continue making the game threads. LMA went down in his last GT with the ankle injury. :tu

[Fireball]

shutting down Spurstalk is probably the safest option for the team right now

[tbdog]

A blew ear drum? How does that happen.

[Chinook]

A blew ear drum? How does that happen.

Sure wasn't from the fans cheering...

[r0drig0lac]

shutting down Spurstalk is probably the safest option for the team right now

[duncan2k5]

Ppl blaming 21 year old Murray for not playing well (ignoring the fact that he has been playing much better than Parker recently), but completely overlook veteran all star Aldridge playing really bad and soft... But I guess Murray is the scapegoat for the team when we play badly nowadays

[Chinook]

I don't think people gave two shits about Murray last night, and most understood Aldridge is injured now. If you mean the season as a whole, Aldridge has been WAY more impactful than Murray to the point that they shouldn't even be in the same conversation.

[SAGirl]

Just turned it on. Saw Mills in the game. Turned it off.
Winner of Post of the year in gamethreads...
:lobt2:

[Rocalcio]

fired up entire team with that play.

Except Kawhi...

[SAGirl]

Except Kawhi...
He appears to be there only bc he has to.
If he's not going to play, he'd much rather be at home with his family. :dizzy:hang

Does anyone know what's up with Rudy?

He sucks

[Slippy]

Kyle Anderson was huge on both ends. Picking off guys using his length for a steal is becoming a common trend. Lead to a highlight play that should be top ten.On offense he avoids shooting but aint afraid to take on a rotating defense off the dribble albeit in the slowest fashion. Hes stil effective . With the aging of manu, no Kawi & Simmons gone, attacking from the perimeter is a lost art on spurs offense.. Kyle showing how its done.

Thanks! Gay is day to day.
