Game Thread: Spurs @ Clippers (11/15, 9:30pm C) on TNT

[Robz4000]

White is killing the Spurs.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

We are gonna get blown the hell out

[Mirrornick]

This is like the 5th time being down by 8. Why is dd not getting touches anymore wtf going on

[Leetonidas]

:pctoss

[NASpurs]

About to go down double digits for the third time this game.

[Indianman]

As long as it wasn't a dunk and he wasn't hitting his chest afterwards, he's good, tbh.

Doubt it.

[YoungbuckMurray]

They get close then let it get away game after game after game. Would be really nice if LMA could do something positive tonight

[SuperCam]

spurs on pace to give up 115+ again :lol

[Ragamuffin]

derick white fuck the game again... go out

[FkLA]

Save us, MVPaddy.

[J_Paco]

Pretty layup followed by 4 straight terrible possessions. Fuck!

White, Aldridge and Cunningham's shit play are going to lead to a loss.

[Mirrornick]

Demar should just shoot it every time

[Das Texan]

I dont even know what he fuck White is doing out there. Holy fuck that's bad basketball.

[Kawhitstorm]

White is killing the Spurs.

Midget Fathead: 0-5, -28 :lmao

[HarlemHeat37]

Is Aldridge still on the team?

[Chinook]

Thought that first time-out after the three by Pop was so stupid. He compounds it by taking another. Whatever he told the team to focus on clearly didn't work.

[Indianman]

Remember the time when we were all excited about D White's return?

[Budkin]

God this team SUUUUUUCKS.

[DAF86]

DeRozan is very very bad on defense.

[timvp]

I said the Spurs would be down ten when Pop went away from the Cunningham lineup disaster. They were only down 8.

Improvement :tu

[NASpurs]

lloli/spycei

[J_Paco]

Thought that first time-out after the three by Pop was so stupid. He compounds it by taking another. Whatever he told the team to focus on clearly didn't work.

Had to stop the bleeding somehow, pull White/Cunningham and tell the players to get DeMar the ball.

[Ron Swanson]

4-12 shooting this quarter.

[JakeCuenca]

White is bad. Just bad.

Sad.

I miss tim and tony.

[DAF86]

Remember the time when we were all excited about D White's return?

He's gonna be good. You gotta remember he's basically a rookie. Manu averaged 7 ppg on 40% shooting on his rookie year.

[NASpurs]

DeRozan is very very bad on defense.

You know who should play with him? Patty and Bryn to compound the fact that DeRozan isn't very good on defense.

[Robz4000]

At least we should get a moral victory tonight...

[SpurPadre]

Forbes takes some mind numbingly stupid shots sometimes...

[Mirrornick]

Dekobe

[Leetonidas]

DeMVP carrying this sad team

[DAF86]

Why didn't Forbes just take that open three instead of going for that awakard fadeaway? :lol

[SuperCam]

He's gonna be good. You gotta remember he's basically a rookie. Manu averaged 7 ppg on 40% shooting on his rookie year.

that doesn't mean anything in today's league. 19 year old rookies come in now especially guards and average 17/5 with regular 25+ scoring games with today's rules. White's a bonafide backup at best

[DAF86]

Rudy is a fucking machine.

[Leetonidas]

This defense is beyond pathetic

[anon]

Hey, Portaletl's young legs just altered that fastbreak lay-in

[SuperCam]

damn DeFrozan gonna cry in the lockerroom for 2 hours after that block

[DAF86]

What a shitty ass team.

[BatManu20]

Need some stops pls.

[Chinook]

Fucked up a two-for-one again. Seriously leaving points on the table.

[Budkin]

This defense is beyond pathetic

Main issue this season.

[Mirrornick]

Can't guard the pick n roll without a foul. If you cant out a hand in a player then you're screwed. Clippers are exploiting it perfectly

[Mugen]

The GOAT defensive coach of all time everybody.

[DAF86]

Fucked up a two-for-one again. Seriously leaving points on the table.

Manu would never fuck those up. This team would have 1 or 2 more wins with Manu, tbh. Not even being a homer.

[Indianman]

I noticed that Poeltl needs to get over the Butterfinger Syndrome first if he wants to be successful. Dude can't hold a ball or catch it for his life.

[DAF86]

Of course he wasn't going to make both.

[SuperCam]

can't believe this bobbleheaded euro fuck was part of the centerpiece of that trade :lol

[anon]

damn DeFrozan gonna cry naked in the Staples shower for 2 hours after that block as Rudy tries in vain to coax him out
:lol ftfy

[Mugen]

Team quitting on Pop 15 games into the season, can't even blame them when Pop clearly doesn't give a fuck and won't even make a simple adjustment on a Tobias Harris PnR :lol

[J_Paco]

that doesn't mean anything in today's league. 19 year old rookies come in now especially guards and average 17/5 with regular 25+ scoring games with today's rules. White's a bonafide backup at best

That is a bunch of bullshit. Most young guards struggle with efficiency and the speed of the NBA. He's no different but he has a much lower ceiling because his "advanced" age (for a 2nd year player).

Anyway, I'm pretty sure they envision him as 6th man/combo guard that can spell or play with either Walker or Murray.

They need to come out with fire in the 4th because that was a terrible defensive performance in the 3rd quarter. SMDH

[Mugen]

Clippers gonna easily push this to 15+ by the 7min mark. Easily.

[rasuo214]

How long until LMA demands to be traded again?

[Mirrornick]

Clippers can run the pick and roll all night and spurs can't do anything

[NASpurs]

Clippers gonna easily push this to 15+ by the 7min mark. Easily.

The best bench in the NBA against ours. Only a matter of time.

[timvp]

DeRozan will need to go for 40+ for the Spurs to win this.

[wildbill2u]

a minute or so ago Poertle got a rebound and was standing virtually alone about 6 feet from the basket with no one near him. Instead of driving to the rim he stood around looking for someone to pass to until a Clipper got him to lose the ball and fall down. If I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have believed it. He has to go to Austin asap and learn how the game works.

[HarlemHeat37]

Derozan and Gay should take every single shot in the 4th:lol

[SuperCam]

wtf are you talking about? there's a reason the scores are now 130-120 on the regular, because the refs are letting guards score as easily as ever :lol

if white played for another team no one on this board would even know his name

[cjw]

I thought his advanced stats rated out well!

[DAF86]

The fuck was that Poeltl? I think I can put up a better attempt. :lol

[Leetonidas]

Just can't get over the hump. Can't play any semblance of defense

[Keepin' it real]

Playoff atmosphere.

[SuperCam]

i didnt think anyone could make me miss pau but this austrian piece of shit is doing a good job :lol

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Are we even running an offense out there? I can’t believe these shot attempts

[KimmyGib]

Belinelli sucks

[BatManu20]

It’s slipping away.

[Spurs fever]

Bad shot selections

[DAF86]

Mills, Forbes, Bellinelli, Cunningham. Explain me how those 4 guys together are suppossed to win NBA games.

[loveforthegame]

How long until LMA demands to be traded again?

[Spurs fever]

Beli you sack of shit

[NASpurs]

Beli :lol

[Mirrornick]

Get up demar no rest

[DAF86]

Bellinelli isn't a good shooter, tbh.

[SpurPadre]

Making Harrell look like Shaq, smh

[YoungbuckMurray]

That play just shows they want it more. Harrell gets the rbd while 4 of our guys watch him

[moisaenz]

this team is trash..maybe spurs are tanking?

[DAF86]

Mills, Forbes, Bellinelli, Cunningham. Explain me how those 4 guys together are suppossed to win NBA games.

Seriously, somebody fucking explain to me how this fucking old fart expects to get something good out of this unit.

[YoungbuckMurray]

Again pathetic defense

[Indianman]

Aldridge is a pussy this season.

[Mirrornick]

Lma has knock knees I think

[NASpurs]

Did Patty just get mad at LMA for allowing Harrell to dunk or was it at a ref? :lol

[BatManu20]

Zero fucking defense

[ducks]

Mills has to go to

[DAF86]

this team is trash..maybe spurs are tanking?

This team isn't as trash as Popovich is handling them.

Playing the best guys you have is coaching 101. And Popovich can't even do that. He's clearly a liability right now.

[manning20]

throw away poodle and aldrige fucking soft

[anon]

Clippers gonna easily push this to 15+ by the 7min mark. Easily.
Yeah. I think Tom Rivers is just being a good buddy to Pop by trotting out his own bullshit lineups to make it look like a game. But when closing time comes, there are no more friends, all the playing around stops.

[timvp]

LaMarcus couldn't look more disinterested if he tried.

[Spurs fever]

Watching this group play defense is daunting

[hater]

:lmao Sperms making Lou Williams look like prime Chris Paul :lol

[Ron Swanson]

This team has no idea what they're doing to my liver.

[SuperCam]

:cry LaMelo aldridge :cry

[ducks]

Lma needs to dunk it and scream

[duncan2k5]

I keep telling ppl LMA was the problem... Not Kawhi... This is who LMA is and always has been... Trade immediately

[Dex]

LaMarcus couldn't look more disinterested if he tried.

Just thinking the same thing. He didn’t have any aggression defending that play and didn’t even seem to give a shit that he gave his man a wide open lane for a dunk.

[Mugen]

Great call by the front office to not blow it up after Kawhi, being a playoff team was the right call for Pop to get his farewell tour :lmao

[NASpurs]

LMA has been checked out for a week or so. THe dude is just going through the motions.

Rewind it back to that dunk and tell me that Patty didn't get mad at LMA.

[HarlemHeat37]

Aldridge has completely quit, never disliked a Spur as much as I dislike him..so soft..

He has a physical AND talent advantage virtually every game..

[SpurPadre]

They show glimpses of being a good team but then crumble in a matter of minutes. Quizzical rotations, bad shot selections, poor clock management, bad defense, but more than anything, just not good enough players all around.

[DAF86]

LaMarcus couldn't look more disinterested if he tried.

Pop doesn't seem much more interested, tbh.

[marinoman]

Aldridge is so bad man

[J_Paco]

wtf are you talking about? there's a reason the scores are now 130-120 on the regular, because the refs are letting guards score as easily as ever :lol

if white played for another team no one on this board would even know his name

Rookie/young guards, idiot. Of course veteran guards will exploit the continued emphasis of perimeter scoring (minus the Spurs). They struggle with the speed of the NBA and being efficient offensively. You claimed, falsely, the young guards put up good numbers as if there is any truth to that statement.

But, I forgot you are member of the "Peanut Gallery" so I'll leave you be.

[Dhbsr555]

Give props to derozen to playing hard

[NASpurs]

Missed 2 fts, a corner 3 and a fadeaway all in a row in less than 30 seconds.

[Kurgan]

LMA airball lmao

[Spursfanfromafar]

Wow..Aldridge..what was that? Air ball from a post up play.. amazing.

[DAF86]

I don't think I saw LA hit rim since the second half started.

[SuperCam]

only reason spur aren't down 20 is b/c this is a low iq clippers team tbh

[BatManu20]

LMA Getting pushed around by Harrell down low is pathetic. Get big you pussy! You got 3 inches on him FFS

[Degoat]

Such a poorly built team

[Mirrornick]

Lol dejavu

[Chinook]

This game is such a fucking roller coaster.

[NASpurs]

Another run from being down 10+.

[BatManu20]

Ferrari

[Leetonidas]

Spurs cut it to 2 again. Back to back three pointers for LA incoming

[Spurs fever]

Beli!

[Mugen]

I'd rather run Rudy at fucking Center than trash ass Lamarcus and Poetl

[J_Paco]

only reason spur aren't down 20 is b/c this is a low iq clippers team tbh

Sure, because they didn't just beat two of the best teams in the NBA......

[anon]

Haha holy shit 3ball finally bailing them out

[Mirrornick]

Demar won't let us down

[Mugen]

Pop must be really racking his brain during this timeout trying to figure out how to defend the inevitable wide open 15 footer for Lou Williams coming up

[bklynspursfan]

LaMarcus couldn't look more disinterested if he tried.

He had Harrell on the block, backed him down and settled for a fade. I'm glad he's somewhat fighting for boards, but he should be punishing Harrell, he's way too small.

[ducks]

Pop doesn't seem much more interested, tbh.

Ditto

When was his last tech

[Dhbsr555]

Either trade Aldridge or bench him he has a combined 26 over 3 games we’re paying him to much for this crap

[marinoman]

Even if we win by some chance, lma can’t do shit, I can’t stand it, especially after last years play

[TheGreatYacht]

Trade Derrick White and lamarsha for a late first

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Demar won't let us down

He just bricked two ft’s

Need him attacking the rim instead of settling for contested jumpers, hopefully he had enough gas left in the tank

[timvp]

Cunningham goes to the bench. Run commences. Part 3.

[Kurgan]

LMA's field goal percentage for the month of November: 37%

[hater]

Damn my stream is slow as shit

Nigas dont post any spoilers ok?

[marinoman]

He had Harrell on the block, backed him down and settled for a fade. I'm glad he's somewhat fighting for boards, but he should be punishing Harrell, he's way too small.
He keeps missing open 18 footers, all season just wtf

[J_Paco]

Either trade Aldridge or bench him he has a combined 26 over 3 games we’re paying him to much for this crap

Not sure Pop can afford that when the alternatives are Poetl and Metu.

[NASpurs]

Patty just took out Marco on defense :lmao

[SpurPadre]

Demar won't let us down

Those missed free throws were bad, tbh.

[bklynspursfan]

Of course they call that

[BatManu20]

Lmfao Patty taking out Ferrari’s legs from behind after being fooled by a simple fake entry pass

[SuperCam]

low iq team vs extraordinarily unathletic midgets.

[Xx_SpursNation_xX]

Patty fucking with his own guys

[Dhbsr555]

Aldridge for manu

[marinoman]

Damn my stream is slow as shit

Nigas dont post any spoilers ok?
Spoiler alert, Aldridge sux

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Too many stupid fouls, clippers about to be in the bonus

[Dhbsr555]

Aldridge ball watching get the damn rebound

[DAF86]

Remember when we used to run that hammer play with Manu and Green? :cry

[BatManu20]

Rebound the damn ball gentlemen

[bklynspursfan]

Finally. Go to the f'ing basket

[NASpurs]

They probably told Aldridge to fucking do something during a timeout.

[DAF86]

Why can't Aldridge do that everytime?

[FaM0us Skins]

About time LA does something on offense

[SuperCam]

some clutch boards for LMAlpha this quarter tbh

[Xx_SpursNation_xX]

Derozan is soft as fuck, what a bad trade.

[BatManu20]

Shots rimming out now

[bklynspursfan]

They probably told Aldridge to fucking do something during a timeout.

Maybe Pop needs to punch him in the chest like he did nephew

[SpurPadre]

DeRozan choking this quarter. Come on, man, we need you!

[BatManu20]

Derozan is soft as fuck, what a bad trade.

He’s literally carrying us this season and tonight you stupid fuck :lol

[BatManu20]

Rudy Gay to the locker room... sigh

[Ron Swanson]

Rudy went to the locker room.

[Mirrornick]

Please don't break our hearts demar.

[marinoman]

Rudy hurt again

[Dhbsr555]

Rudy hurt again he’s a piece of glass

[SuperCam]

He’s literally carrying us this season and tonight you stupid fuck :lol

carrying to a .500 record at best

[Leetonidas]

Spurs make it one possession, clippers score. Every. Single. Time. Get a fucking stop already

[Robz4000]

Rudy's back on the sideline.

[Spurs fever]

DeMar!

[Mugen]

Really sucks that the FO put all of their eggs into the Rudy Gay basket. He's been pretty good during his time here but he's just broke down at this point.

[Kurgan]

DeRozan choking this quarter. Come on, man, we need you!

Already in playoff form

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Remember when we used to run that hammer play with Manu and Green? :cry

Fuuuuuuck

It still hurts

[NASpurs]

Rudy Gay probably only has a handful of games for the team this year.

[DAF86]

Why can't Bellinelli take a fucking jumper jumping straight? He always has to be fading somewhere. Sideways, backwards, forwards, downwars.

[Chinook]

Really think the team needs more Aldridge-White when DeRozan is on the bench. I do think Derrick has been the best player at finding LMA and getting him good shots. DeRozan is okay at that too, but he hasn't been as good at specifically seeking Aldridge out. The bench needs offense; DeRozan needs to be the undisputed leader of the first unit. As soon as it becomes possible, subbing out LMA and White early for Gasol and Beli makes sense. Then bring Derrick and LaMarcus back later in the first to play off each other.

[hater]

He’s literally carrying us this season and tonight you stupid fuck :lol

:lol not last few games but yeah this game hes carrying us

[FkLA]

Seems like this team can never get over the hump.

[Dhbsr555]

Typical kahwi fan would only say this go back to Toronto

[marinoman]

4 guards and lma?

[hater]

Why can't Bellinelli take a fucking jumper jumping straight? He always has to be fading somewhere. Sideways, backwards, forwards, downwars.

His favorite player is Manu :lol

[Leetonidas]

Right on cue fatty gets scored on

[Spurs fever]

Mills hurting us on defense

[HarlemHeat37]

Gallinari shouldn't be doing anything but taking spot-up 3s, terrible:lol

[Spurs da champs]

Rookie abusing the midget.

[NASpurs]

The possibility of a moral victory is super strong in this one.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

That’s game

This team is finished

[Ron Swanson]

LMA is 0-9 since the 1st quarter. JFC.

[Dhbsr555]

Mills it’s called defense try it for once in your life

[Leetonidas]

God dammit I fucking hate Patty Mills worthless piece of shit either bricking or getting scored on

[DAF86]

Mills, Forbes, Bellinelli, DeRozan. There's just no way you can win with that type of lineups. Come on now.

[BatManu20]

Ya we need a score here it’s prob over.

[Spurs fever]

Rebounds....

[YoungbuckMurray]

Rebound the damn ball

[Leetonidas]

You've got to be kidding me

[DAF86]

DeRozan your power forward and you expect to get stops. :lol

[BatManu20]

Our lack of length is killing us on the O-boards

[anon]

Forbes might want a trade faster than LMA

[NASpurs]

LMA shooting fts during the clutch. Ruh roh

[Spurs da champs]

DeRozan your power forward and you expect to get stops. :lol

Any lineup having Mills, Forbes, & Bellinelli ain't getting stops. Regardless of the 4 & 5.

[SuperCam]

these retards cant make fts, spur can win this tbh

[Spurs fever]

LA!!

[BatManu20]

Knock em down LaMarcus

[NASpurs]

:wow

[Dhbsr555]

Damn

[Amuseddaysleeper]

What the fuck!!!!!

[NASpurs]

Sweet Lou :wow

How can we trade for him?

[Spurs fever]

Can't get a rebound

[J_Paco]

4 guards and lma?

The only quality wing with size is Rudy. They literally have no one else of quality to go to that is 6'7" - 6'9" and is a wing player.

Ridiculous shot by Sweet Lou. Damn...

[YoungbuckMurray]

Again we can’t rebound. Same old damn story

[SpurPadre]

Second fucking chances...

[Robz4000]

Game. Det moral victory tho!!

[DAF86]

lol trying to get rebounds with this lineup. :lol

[Mirrornick]

Lou is deadly

[Leetonidas]

Pop is a fucking moron. How the fuck do you expect to get a rebound with this midget ass lineup

[BatManu20]

Lou Williams. Spur killer.

[ducks]

Forbes and mills hit the road

[Spurs da champs]

Lou is so good when there's nothing to play for.

[Dhbsr555]

What’s Aldridge shooting percentage

[DAF86]

Again we can’t rebound. Same old damn story

5'11, 6'0, 6'4 and 6'6" and you expect to get rebounds? :lol

[Mugen]

Guarantee Pop leaves Beli, Patty, and Forbes all in for this defensive possession.

[Mirrornick]

DeFuck3s

[ducks]

That was a and one damn

[Leetonidas]

Should have been an and one. That's at least three times derozan got hit at the rim with no call and scored

[Dhbsr555]

I know he’s killed us over the last 5 games

[anon]

Something Demar I wish I had Lou Williams' shot selection Derozen can't answer. Wonder if Engelland can make any headway on DD's stroke from the corner.

[duncan2k5]

Murray would have blocked that

[Ron Swanson]

This team is straight up blown-out Adriana Chechik's ass on defense.

[DAF86]

Watch Pop not make any defensive substitutions on this possession. :lol

[KobeScored81]

Smh come on SA you beat us but cant beat these fools ?

[Xx_SpursNation_xX]

Lou is so good when there's nothing to play for. We got a few of those.

[YoungbuckMurray]

Pop is a fucking moron. How the fuck do you expect to get a rebound with this midget ass lineup

In his defense who else is he gonna put out there? Cunningham? Rudy our best wing with length is hurt once again

[SuperCam]

spur is going to win this tbh, these retard cripper players cant make fts

[Spurs fever]

DeMar doing his thing.

[Leetonidas]

This team is straight up blown-out Adriana Chechik's ass on defense.

:lmao

[J_Paco]

Lou is so good when there's nothing to play for.

Regular season games mean absolutely nothing?

He's never been on a team good enough to prove if his clutch play translates in the playoffs.

[Degoat]

Man other then DeRozan this team blows!! So many black holes on this team

[surgical]

Guarantee Pop leaves Beli, Patty, and Forbes all in for this defensive possession.
lol it's sad but true

[Dhbsr555]

Dd gonna have to make up for Aldridge faults

[NASpurs]

Guarantee Pop leaves Beli, Patty, and Forbes all in for this defensive possession.

2 of the 3 are in. :lol

[Robz4000]

:lmao Cunningham is pure fucking trash

[Mugen]

Holy fuck Pop actually made a defensive adjustment. Didn't work out of course but holy fuck.

[TheGreatYacht]

Cunningham :lmao

[Spurs fever]

Ugh

[DAF86]

Watch Pop not make any defensive substitutions on this possession. :lol

My bad, he got Dante Foullingham in the game. :lol

[ducks]

Damm

[duncan2k5]

Murray would have also gotten that rebound... But some idiots on here don't get the importance of guards rebounding in today's NBA where bugs are pulled out the paint... This isn't 1990

[Mirrornick]

Last time out smh

[SpurPadre]

Mills and Forbes on the court at the same time now is just as bad, if not worse than taking out Duncan in 6, tbh.

[Mugen]

Tonight should be a win already considering Pop actually made a fucking defensive adjustment, just wow. What a call by Pop there taking Beli out.

[Texas_Ranger]

This team is straight up blown-out Adriana Chechik's ass on defense.

I see u re a man of culture.

[J_Paco]

This team is straight up blown-out Adriana Chechik's ass on defense.

I get the analogy, but I'm scared to ask how you know what that looks like...

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Spurs will lose this game by one point

[Mirrornick]

Lol

Cream?
Which one is you

[ducks]

What pop draw play for Lma three

[Mugen]

Pop drawing up some shit for Bryn right now lol

[Ron Swanson]

I see u re a man of culture.

:lol

[Dhbsr555]

We should clone dd

[Degoat]

This might be the worse loss of the season, I know the clippers have solid players but we have 2 all stars and even though it’s close they’ve completely out played us
