Game Thread: Spurs @ Timberwolves — Fri. (1/18) - 7:00/C (3:00am Riga Time)

[Mugen]

crofl

[SAtown]

:lmao

[Ron Swanson]

:lol

[bklynspursfan]

Patty checks in, Teague immediately gets a bucket and then a wide open 3 point shot.

The fucking myth about Pop giving a shit about defense when it comes to rotations :lol

Now a great pass for an easy 2 and drew a foul. Can't only mention the negatives lol

[Cry Havoc]

These Minny announcers are sooooooooooooooo angry.

[RD2191]

Wolves fans melting down :lmao

[Mugen]

These refs bailing Pop out, thank god

[Cry Havoc]

"Fuck you Bellineli!"

[ducks]

Wolves are mentally weak

[Dancelot]

Spurefs?

[bklynspursfan]

These refs bailing Pop out, thank god

They're just balancing out after that pathetic first half

[SAtown]

Refs just shitting on Minny now

[Robz4000]

Most of these are the right calls, but these refs are garbage.

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

Wolves have legit ref problems here. Sheesh...

[GreekSpursfan]

Rotations are not a problem, you have to keep your players fresh and as i said before White will probably finish the game.

[ducks]

Wolves got a tech

[Mugen]

Now a great pass for an easy 2 and drew a foul. Can't only mention the negatives lol

Straight trash, homie. 12mil a year for a backup PG, his fatass doesn't even wave the towel anymore :lol

[Rosewood]

Wolves getting punked by the refs. Those were bullshit calls tbh.

Total meltdown though so far. Glad to see it from the other side for once :lol

[bklynspursfan]

Rotations are not a problem, you have to keep your players fresh and as i said before White will probably finish the game.

Of course he will finish the game, but people gotta have their moments

[Mugen]

About time that Jakob started not playing charmin soft.

[Spurs da champs]

The officials have been terrible but lmao at Dieng & Towns, low IQ players.

[RD2191]

Wolves getting punked by the refs. Those were bullshit calls tbh.

Total meltdown though so far. Glad to see it from the other side for once :lol

We were getting the shaft early tbh

[bklynspursfan]

Teague got a T i think (at least that's what Yahoo Sports tells me)

[dbestpro]

No doubt in my mind they calls against the Wolves are in response to their behavior to earlier calls by the refs.

[XDT76]

Bertans should be starting tbh. What a shooter.

No he shouldn't, with LMA, Gay and DDR in the starting lineup Bertans would be wasted in the starting lineup

[bklynspursfan]

Straight trash, homie. 12mil a year for a backup PG, his fatass doesn't even wave the towel anymore :lol

I don't think you know what straight trash means lol that ain't it.

[playbonner15]

Teague used to torch the spurs. What happend

[GusT15]

Wolves are lucky they haven't gotten 5 techs so far in game.

Complaining after every call like little bitches,a nothing team led by millennial divas in KAT and Wiggins.

[GreekSpursfan]

Of course he will finish the game, but people gotta have their moments

Agreed

[RD2191]

I don't think you know what straight trash means lol that ain't it.

If you look up trash in the dictionary there's a picture of Patrick Mills next to it.

[SpaceCoast Spursfan]

Hopefully LMA can get going to close this game... Good run with this last group, Patty and Bryn did a good job not taking bad shots last few minutes. And getting a lot of help from refs (every 50/50 call going Spurs way this quarter, but opposite was true 2nd quarter)

[bklynspursfan]

Ball don't lie

[emanueldavidginobili]

Get White in there

[Rosewood]

Lol Teague.

[skin27]

Lol people here bitiching while we’re leading

[RD2191]

Spurs choking

[Play Boban]

50Mills literally shooting us out of the game tbh.

[XDT76]

Damn in a night that DDR is resting White is only playing 25min and 7 FGA

[Mugen]

DWhite chilling on the bench while absolute trash players like Forbes and Patty in.

[bklynspursfan]

If you look up trash in the dictionary there's a picture of Patrick Mills next to it.

:lol I checked, but can confirm this is not true.

[playbonner15]

Teague just fishing for fouls now every drive

[RD2191]

:lol I checked, but can confirm this is not true.

My bad, we get bootleg dictionaries in Mexico.

[Robz4000]

Spurs bitch to the refs, they get worse calls. When other teams do it they start getting all the calls.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Mills flips more then trying to stay in front of his player

[RD2191]

Teague is a huge faggot tbh

[bklynspursfan]

Aldridge was fouled tbh

[RD2191]

LMA :LMAO

[Play Boban]

Dorris Burke literally dropping Truth nukes out there about Wiggins.

[GreekSpursfan]

refs doing an 180 again.

[Spurs fever]

Now Wolves getting calls again.

[bklynspursfan]

Please foul out Towns. I need to see that tantrum in my life

[BlackAndWhite]

smh the results are so manufactured

[emanueldavidginobili]

Is white going to try to attempt a shot in the second half?

[Ron Swanson]

Refs going full retard back to Minny now.

[bklynspursfan]

Aldridge with no box out. Lucky it didn't lead to a 3

[bklynspursfan]

Is white going to try to attempt a shot in the second half?

Just did lol

[SAtown]

Whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite

[GreekSpursfan]

fresh White as i was saying.

[RD2191]

DWhite!

[Ron Swanson]

Is white going to try to attempt a shot in the second half?

Yes.

[RD2191]

MVWHITE

[emanueldavidginobili]

There you go!!! Holy shit. Be aggressive Derrick

[GreekSpursfan]

fucking refs again

[RD2191]

Refs :lmao

[SAtown]

Shoulda been 6 on that mentally retarded feller

[bklynspursfan]

Took 2 points from us

[Robz4000]

Refs have completely gone 180.

[Mugen]

Pop needs to get Derrick out of there, Patty looks like he's ready to go again.

[Play Boban]

Is white going to try to attempt a shot in the second half?
This aged well.

[Barfunk]

Refs ain't worth a fuck. Complete miss on that Aldridge offensive goaltend

[Mugen]

Hope Pau and Patty are ready to go, culture on 3.

[GusT15]

Stfu Dorris Burke,just call the game,you're not the Wolves color commentator

[Mugen]

This aged well.

He should have shot more but his head coach is having him just throw the ball into Lamarcus and Rudy every time down the court.

[bklynspursfan]

Hope Pau and Patty are ready to go, culture on 3.

Pau hasn't closed a game in forever lol. He plays his little stint to start each half and never sees the court again.

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

That offensive goaltending going to be a big.missed call

[Dverde]

Both teams played hard. Well except Wiggins.

[Mugen]

Pau hasn't closed a game in forever lol. He plays his little stint to start each half and never sees the court again.

Oh I know. I just hate that Spanish fuck even when he's chilling on the bench.

[RD2191]

This is going into OT tbh

[Play Boban]

Stfu Dorris Burke,just call the game,you're not the Wolves color commentator
:cry

[Ditty]

Please beat us Minnesota

[GreekSpursfan]

Oh I know. I just hate that Spanish fuck even when he's chilling on the bench.

:lol

[SpaceCoast Spursfan]

He should have shot more but his head coach is having him just throw the ball into Lamarcus and Rudy every time down the court.

Rudy has played pretty well but definitely too many slow developing post plays called by Pop tonight, also Rudy has made nice passes out of the motion offense while getting good looks - in the post he definitely becomes a black hole more often than not

[bklynspursfan]

Oh I know. I just hate that Spanish fuck even when he's chilling on the bench.

:lol I def hope they can move him . The team flowed much better with LMA/Yak getting the mins.

I believed TP could still be impactful when he felt he had some left. Pau isn't the same. He can't move out there.

[Larry O]

Softridge sighting, SMH...

[timtonymanu]

Damn Towns is such a softie lol

[Ron Swanson]

Bye KAT

[RD2191]

:lmao gtfo towns

[bklynspursfan]

Dammit they might be better with him gone now

[timtonymanu]

Please foul out Towns. I need to see that tantrum in my life

There you go

[Cry Havoc]

bye byeeeeeeeee

[SAtown]

Aldridge :lmao

[bklynspursfan]

Dammit White

[RD2191]

Wtf white. Dumbass pass.

[Play Boban]

White choking down the stretch.

[bklynspursfan]

There you go

:lol it wasn't as glorious as I'd hoped for

[Play Boban]

:wow Ferrari slam :wow

[Ron Swanson]

Ferrari

[GreekSpursfan]

LMAAAAAAAA

[RD2191]

LMA

[SpaceCoast Spursfan]

Shocked Beli didn't pull up for 3

[Mugen]

Jesus how much are they paying Wiggins?

[Ron Swanson]

:lma

[Strategic]

Now is when it matters

[Spurs fever]

They gave Wiggins 140 million dollar contract. Wow...

[JPB]

Remember saying when they brought Marco back he was a good insurance and would make you win a few games here or there with a couple smart plays :tu

[Ron Swanson]

Jesus how much are they paying Wiggins?

4 yrs for $147 million

[GusT15]

Jesus how much are they paying Wiggins?

You don't wanna know.You really don't

[RD2191]

Y'all gonna watch boogie?

[GreekSpursfan]

Refs giveth, refs taketh back

[bklynspursfan]

No replay for that one?

[Spurs da champs]

Jesus how much are they paying Wiggins?

He honestly looks like he is throwing, there's no way he's that bad.

[Mugen]

Run something for Davis.

[SAtown]

Weak ass calls

[RD2191]

:lmao

[skin27]

LA is the alpha!!

[bklynspursfan]

Lmao! Refs holy shit

[Play Boban]

4 yrs for $147 million
Damn, hope he can feed his family on those crumbs tbh.

[timtonymanu]

Why are refs this stupid?

[bklynspursfan]

Gay!

[RD2191]

Gay!

[bklynspursfan]

If that's not Spurs ball holy crap

[Robz4000]

T-Pups win on a Derrick Rose uncontested layup.

[RD2191]

Spurs ball

[Ron Swanson]

Horseshit, refs. That's Spurs ball.

[Mugen]

These refs are straight fucking trash. Both ways tbh.

[ducks]

Should be spurs ball

[Chinook]

4 yrs for $147 million

Pretty sure that's his five-year total. If he opts out, it's just under $120 Million.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Spurs ball

[timtonymanu]

Why hasn’t Ken Mauer retired yet?

[RD2191]

T-Pups win on a Derrick Rose uncontested layup.

:lol

[skin27]

In before T’Wolves game winner

[emanueldavidginobili]

Yeah refs have been bad on both sides both teams have had shitty calls

[SAtown]

Really glad Pop had 2 timeouts to use on the most important possession of the game

[Spurs da champs]

Whites defense on explosive pgs is pretty bad tbh.

[Rosewood]

Lmao these Wolves announcers. Obviously Spurs ball you pieces of shit.

[RD2191]

This is gonna hurt. What a terrible loss.

[bklynspursfan]

Get the ball to belinelli

[RD2191]

Who's bricking free throws?

[bklynspursfan]

Whites defense on explosive pgs is pretty bad tbh.

It's decent, but yeah. Once he and Murray are there , they'll a nightmare for teams

[Mugen]

Beli is gonna miss 1 and that fucking loser DRose gonna win it at the buzzer lmao

[Play Boban]

Really glad Pop had 2 timeouts to use on the most important possession of the game
He knows Saunders would outcoach him during the timeout, so he might as well just keep the play running tbh.

[SupremeGuy]

The fuck is up with this broadcast? Everything against Spurs. These bitches. That was an easy call and they tried to convince themselves it was off the Spurs. Smh.

[SAtown]

clutch

[Mugen]

please keep Forbes off the fucking court on this defensive possession.

[JPB]

Beli is gonna miss 1 and that fucking loser DRose gonna win it at the buzzer lmao

Smart jinx :tu

[SupremeGuy]

Big Balls Beli, baby.

[bklynspursfan]

Who's bricking free throws?

Not this guy

http://i.imgur.com/Sm8guTB.gif

[Robz4000]

Foul them after the inbounds please.

[RD2191]

Foul Pop. Foul!

[RD2191]

Not this guy

http://i.imgur.com/Sm8guTB.gif

:lmao

[Spurs fever]

Please no 3....

[Mugen]

As long as they don't make Pop draw up an out of timeout play to win it, i think they'll be okay. I really don't want to see Quincy Pondexter get the last shot.

[bklynspursfan]

Foul them after the inbounds please.

They never do, don't hold your breath lol

[bklynspursfan]

As long as they don't make Pop draw up an out of timeout play to win it, i think they'll be okay. I really don't want to see Quincy Pondexter get the last shot.

Like the one to get the ball to our best FT shooter? Haha

[Spurs da champs]

It's decent, but yeah. Once he and Murray are there , they'll a nightmare for teams
He's a smart defender, he defended Kyrie & his poor man counterpart in Jamal Murray well, just cant handle the Westbrook/Rose types it seems. I'm sure he'll get better at it tho.

[GreekSpursfan]

Spurs wiiiiiiin

[Play Boban]

Bertans master defender........

[bklynspursfan]

Davis got that D

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

Crowd the line. If they hit they hit.

[RD2191]

Terrible attempt by the wolves

[Mugen]

lmaooooooo, Ryan Saunders with the Pop play to tie it

[SupremeGuy]

Bertans shitting all over DRose :lol

[RD2191]

lmaooooooo, Ryan Saunders with the Pop play to tie it

:lmao tbh

[Cry Havoc]

Good fucking win.

[JPB]

Fugly win but they'll take it.

[Spurs fever]

Win!

[Ron Swanson]

Nice defense by Davis.

[playbonner15]

:flag: VICTORY

[emanueldavidginobili]

Big win on the road without DDR

[DAF86]

Hopefully this teaches Pop that he doesn't need to play DeRozan 40 minutes per game.

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

Every win on the road is like five wins..

[RC_Drunkford]

player of the game should definitely go to the referees. They saved our ass

[GusT15]

Lmao Allstar Derrick Rose.

[SpursDynasty85]

First post tonight. I'm sure it's been mentioned but that was the worst reffed game I have every seen in an NBA game. Left and right bad call after bad call. Whistle fest, no consistency. Made watching the game very frustrating. I'll take the win though.

[playbonner15]

This is gonna hurt. What a terrible loss.
:bobo

[justinandimcool]

fuck yeah!!!!

[TDomination]

Yay spurs! 2 wins in a row on the road, I'll take it after losing to the dumb hornets.

[RD2191]

:bobo

For the wolves obviously. Smh

[playbonner15]

That last call giving the Spurs possession sealed it tbh

[BillMc]

Victory.

Davis looking better and better.

[Larry O]

WHEW!!! Whatta win, baby!!!

[JPB]

Spurs must be 5th now... :lobt2:

[dbestpro]

If you look up trash in the dictionary there's a picture of Patrick Mills next to it.

One man's trash is another man's treasure.

[GreekSpursfan]

Not a big win but a solid one.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Man Bertans rebound has gotten so much better

[ducks]

Bertans nice d

[BatManu20]

Good road win :tu

[RD2191]

Not a big win but a solid one.

That's what she said.

[Kobe'sAchilles]

I don't know what was worse, the refs or the annoying dude constantly sucking up to the Wolves for some reason and making it seem like they are all amazing players. On one hand, the refs did their best to lose us the game, on the other hand I don't think that dude ever really mentioned the Spurs unless he absolutely had to. Even when we scored he would go on and on about the Wolves.

[Beartrucci]

Towns really rocked the baby on Jacob and took the L right after being Butler's bitch...Doris told him "stop it"...she knew :lol

[GreekSpursfan]

That's what she said.

:lol

[emanueldavidginobili]

Spurs need to fix the early shit show. Honestly it’s because of Pau. Did anyone notice when he never played a second again this game the Spurs were fine. Father Time is undefeated, he’s a HOFer for sure but dude is done.

[DAF86]

Rudy you da real MVP.

[BillMc]

Is DeMar really injured or was this just a rest game?

[Mr. Body]

Bertans with great defense at the end. T-Wolves suck, but still are dangerous, especially without DDR. Moving on.

[GreekSpursfan]

Pau just gives breathers to certain players, a necessary evil. I'm guessing Milutinov will get his place next season.

[wildbill2u]

Is DeMar really injured or was this just a rest game?

Nobody knows. His uncle won't let him talk to anybody but doctors in NYC.

[RD2191]

Nobody knows. His uncle won't let him talk to anybody but doctors in NYC.

:wow uncle Dennis part deux

[skin27]

Great win!!

[TDomination]

Bertans with great defense at the end. T-Wolves suck, but still are dangerous, especially without DDR. Moving on.

Yup solid win regardless of how you look at it.
Nice to win back 2 back road games.

[SAGirl]

I couldn't watch this one. Glad to take the win tho.
:toast

Whatever happened to Demar? REst game?

[BillMc]

Nobody knows. His uncle won't let him talk to anybody but doctors in NYC.
:lol

Team meeting incoming.

[GreekSpursfan]

Rudy G. was our best player today, good to have him back.

[bklynspursfan]

Now we need OKC to lose in Philly tomorrow

[GusT15]

Now we need OKC to lose in Philly tomorrow

We also need Portland to lose to the Pels and they are playing right now.

[SpurPadre]

One of the better wins of the season aside from our revenge game against The Devil, tbh.

[bklynspursfan]

I couldn't watch this one. Glad to take the win tho.
:toast

Whatever happened to Demar? REst game?

Yeah, he'll play Sunday per Pop

[paperboy77]

Somebody said it on this board a while back but I couldn't stop laughing anytime KAT was in a play... he does kinda look like a drag queen. :lol Way overrated by the way.

[sananspursfan21]

Nobody knows. His uncle won't let him talk to anybody but doctors in NYC.

O JEEZ NOT AGAIN

[cjw]

Somebody said it on this board a while back but I couldn't stop laughing anytime KAT was in a play... he does kinda look like a drag queen. :lol Way overrated by the way.

If my team’s two “stars” were KAT and Wiggins, I’d grow disinterested in the team pretty quickly just like they’re completely disinterested. Rose actually gives a damn.

[Jsmoothexpress]

Somebody said it on this board a while back but I couldn't stop laughing anytime KAT was in a play... he does kinda look like a drag queen. :lol Way overrated by the way.
I don’t think he’s overrated. Dude just fouls much. Which limits his productivity of course.

[Dverde]

I think he is overrated. Seem nothing that says he can be the top player on a championship team

[John B]

Gay playing good puts Spurs on another level tbh.

[Mikeanaro]

Refs were shit, Teague getting Harden calls.
Gasol should retire ASAP.

[Mikeanaro]

Also fuck Rose, fucking cripple trying to stir the pot with those stupid shots.

[Mr. Body]

KAT is badly overrated. Just a nothing player, empty stats, impacts maybe every third game. He's another Anthony Davis. All these John Calipari players, few of them ever learn how to play actual winning basketball. They just skate around looking mystified.

[TimmyBuckets]

Nice win on the road without DDR.

[Degoat]

Not that it really matters but I was curious on how the all star fan voting was going, I checked and Aldridge isnt even in the top 10 on frontcourt fan voting players out west! Demarcus Cousins has more votes then him!! That’s Crazy, I know it’s just an exhibition game but one of DeMar or LA needs to make it.

I rather they rest, but Aldridge would be sulking all weekend tbh

[ceperez]

Gay playing good puts Spurs on another level tbh.

He's the X-factor. If he's healthy then Spurs have enough to be competitive.

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

I rather they rest, but Aldridge would be sulking all weekend tbh

I'm not sure either would like being selected last in the all star game draft live on TV. I'd rather they rest too. DDR definitely needs rest.

[r0drig0lac]

Rudy Gay was the mvp on the team tonight

[NameLess Scrub]

I'm not sure either would like being selected last in the all star game draft live on TV. I'd rather they rest too. DDR definitely needs rest.

I suspect they'd hate not to be selected. I hope they both get in.
Once they're in they can take it easy and let Westbrook compulsively try to win AS MVP again if they want. It's the selection what counts the most.

On last night, it's good to see them win on the road again. LMa seems to have gotten a couple of calls his way and I hope it's related to respect gained by imposing his game in the paint.

[paperboy77]

I don’t think he’s overrated. Dude just fouls to much. Which limits his productivity of course.

In my mind I say he’s overrated because when he began his career a lot of the pundits were praising him every step of the way. I remember hearing the guy was a guard before a growth spurt so he can shoot from three and can handle the ball like a guard. That kinda comments and hype really annoys me so I wait and see how they pan out. He’s not done but I don’t think he’ll meet expectations. Just another high scorer on a bad team.

I didn’t know that about him. I guess you have a point when you say just another high scorer on a bad team.

[Slippy]

The last 2 wins have been seriously gutsy wins. Showing some fortitude this spurs team.

The wolves are still a talented mess. Incessant whining lead by KAT. There wasnt one call he didnt complain about. The refs by the second half were not buying into his act. Laughing on the bench getting caught on cemara soon after foul trouble didnt help your cause.

[duncan2k5]

KAT is badly overrated. Just a nothing player, empty stats, impacts maybe every third game. He's another Anthony Davis. All these John Calipari players, few of them ever learn how to play actual winning basketball. They just skate around looking mystified.

So how is LMA any different??

[Mr. Body]

So how is LMA any different??

Aldridge has had success in the playoffs leading his own teams? Is this a serious question?
