Game Thread: Spurs vs Cavs — Thurs. (3/28) - 7:30/C (2:30am Riga Time) + Manu’s Jersey Retirement Ceremony

[MoSpur02]

Derozan needs to be traded. He's good, but we need someone whose going to look to score. Dude is too passive

[Larry O]

I'd hate to be in the locker room right now, tbh. I'm sure that Pop is giving this team a tongue lashing. Hope these guys come out in the 2nd half fired up. GSG and win one for GINOBILI!!!

[Mugen]

I was half kidding about the Spurs blowing this game tonight against the fuckin' Cavs but these fucks might actually do it :lmao

[Mugen]

Instagram

[TheGreatYacht]

I was talking about the Argentinian president video. He's less than beloved here. Manu himself isn't all that high on him, tbh. I don't know why the Spurs thought it would be cool to have him there.
Is he liberal/smart or a repub/mouth breather?

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Softest Spurs team ever? As soft as their coach

[ElNono]

Derozan needs to be traded. He's good, but we need someone whose going to look to score. Dude is too passive

LMA is the same shit... one 'stats-game' every once in a while. On top of that, the extra caffeinated players are Patty and Forbes

[DAF86]

Is he liberal/smart or a repub/mouth breather?

A friend of Trump, tbh.

[MoSpur02]

Hopefully Manu and Duncan are in the locker room trying to inspire this sorry bunch

[ElNono]

Is he liberal/smart or a repub/mouth breather?

He's a mouth breather, but DAF salty as fucc per par, tbh

[TimDunkem]

My dude, you must have missed the instagram post where Patty had everybody get macchiatos. Now that's leadership.

Worth the 50 million easily.

WHILE THE BIG THREE HAD TO TAKE DISCOUNTS THEIR ENTIRE CAREER

:lmao :lmao :lmao

[ElNono]

Hopefully Manu and Duncan are in the locker room trying to inspire this sorry bunch

They're all on their cellphones checking FB, tbh, don't give a shit

[DAF86]

He's a mouth breather, but DAF salty as fucc per par, tbh

I'm just telling it how it is, tbh. You know damn well MMLPQTP chants would be raining down if that were anywhere in Argentina, tbh. :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

A friend of Trump, tbh.
Not surprised the country that brought in runaway Nazis elected that guy then. It's kind of deserved. I heard on the Joe Rogan podcast that there's a white only village over there as well where they tortured little brown children

[MoSpur02]

Derozan needs to do more of that every single game

[Jordan Jackson]

This team is lazy and stupid. Dangerous combination.

Front office needs to stop dicking around this offseason. Enough already.

[MoSpur02]

Derozan needs to keep driving to the hoop

[Bad Takes]

Why didn't DD do this earlier? He can get a layup against that guy defending him every time.

[MoSpur02]

And 1

[ElNono]

Why does Forbes thinks he should be taking shots over LMA or DD?

[TheGreatYacht]

Mouth breather take
If it isn't the old fuck that swore he didn't like Trump but is his personal cum rag. Sup?

[DAF86]

We come from 12 years of Venezuelism previous to him, tbh. Just the cycle of life: 8 years of Bush, 8 years of Obama, 8 years of Trump. Rinse and repeat.

[MoSpur02]

That's All Day Derozan!

[FkLA]

:lol yeah Pop putting in Centerpiece is exactly what this team needs when its struggling

[MoSpur02]

We can't get a stop though

[TimDunkem]

This team is lazy and stupid. Dangerous combination.

Front office needs to stop dicking around this offseason. Enough already.

They don't need to.

They have the Murray injury and "it's GS' time" excuses. They'll continue to pinch pennies, keep the guys they like, scrape into the playoffs just to keep the owners happy, and you'll keep watching just like everyone else while they're content being in NBA purgatory.

[MoSpur02]

Forbes has been really good tonight.

[Budkin]

That’s more like it.

[MoSpur02]

Derozan should have 30 points this half

[Leetonidas]

Demar going ham. Hopefully spurs can open up a nice lead so he doesn't think he needs to heroball in the 4th

[DAF86]

:lol yeah Pop putting in Centerpiece is exactly what this team needs when its struggling

[$pursDynasty]

Ride Demar now so we won't have to at the end of the game, I trust him now. I don't trust him then.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Duncan had 40 and 20 in that game. Probably just ran out of gas. It's not NBA 2k kid. He played a lot of basketball at that point. Nobody forgot that Manu hit the 3 to put us up. He was a monster that game. But it coined the phrase you live by the Manu and died by the Manu. Also it was just an all time Spur stupid play (a long with Stricklands pass).

The way that series ended made me legit cry though. Spurs lose their best chance to defend the title and everyone's going to die of this H5N1 bird flu pandemic. Spring 2006 sucked.

[r0drig0lac]

demar carrying these scrubs again

[Grybauskaite]

Finally some positive , maybe they woke up?

[spurraider21]

Lol, politics in game thread. Obsessed much?

[MoSpur02]

Derozan making it happen

[DAF86]

Whatch them go to triple OT and delay everything.

[Leetonidas]

When does the Heat does the Manu retirement ceremony?

He was the 2013 finals MVP for Miami tbh

[MoSpur02]

Aldridge finally wakes up

[Mugen]

Anybody else hoping that Beli fouls Osman when the Spurs are up 3 and they lose in OT? It'd be a beautiful tribute tbh.

[ElNono]

He was the 2013 finals MVP for Miami tbh

exactly

[MoSpur02]

Whoever is being guarded by Love should take it right at him

[MoSpur02]

Forbes!

[$pursDynasty]

Spurs get a Lil momentum and Pop wants to sub in 3 players. Sometimes I just don't get it

[TheGreatYacht]

Lol, politics in game thread. Obsessed much?
You quoted me, boomer.

[Leetonidas]

exactly

Aren't they the retarded franchise that retired MJs jersey? :lmao Manu has a case

[spursistan]

White offense falling off a cliff is bad news for this team. Really hope he isn't hitting a rookie wall this late in the season..

[Bad Takes]

Pop must have ripped them at halftime, that's why he's the best.

This comeback is shades of 2014 Game 5 against Miami tbh.

They just need Patty to pull a Porky and pad his stats when they're up by 20.

Demar going ham. Hopefully spurs can open up a nice lead so he doesn't think he needs to heroball in the 4th
THIS^^^^^

By the way, I'm not a boomer.

[MoSpur02]

Good find by Derozan

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Pop is a momentum killer of his own teams. Always has been

[DAF86]

Davis is such an underrated passer.

[MoSpur02]

Derozan dropping dimes

[Mugen]

Has anybody missed more wide open 3s after great passing than Fatty? I don't remember a single time this season the Supreme Leader has hit that shot.

[MoSpur02]

Airball on a free throw :lmao

[Ron Swanson]

RIP Jordan Clarkson

[Leetonidas]

Demar is such a retard sometime

That's the end of quarter Derozan we know and loathe

Flew over my head :lol I'll take the L on that

This was promising qt , but still need to show more effort.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Get Mills off this team. Somehow. Please.

[Leetonidas]

Sick pass by Davis

[DAF86]

Davis is such an underrated passer.

As I was saying.

[Ron Swanson]

I can't wait until Patty Mills retires.

You want to watch his jersey retirement ceremony?

[r0drig0lac]

amazing pass by bertans

[$pursDynasty]

Buying minutes with this lineup

[Bad Takes]

As I was saying.

If only he could play defense.

[Leetonidas]

Clarkson is such a black hole

[Mugen]

Jak is still sunburned? That shit was a week ago. Do they have the sun in Austria tbh?

[spursistan]

As I was saying.

Overrated shooter; Underrated passer/playmaker..IMO.

[$pursDynasty]

Almost turned it over twice but ended up with a Davis 3

[DAF86]

If only he could play defense.

He's an underrated defender too, tbh.

[KimmyGib]

thank you davis. possession looked like a turnover waiting to happen.

[DAF86]

Overrated shooter; Underrated passer/playmaker..IMO.

How's a lifetime 40% 3pt shooter an overrated one? :lol

[KimmyGib]

Did Poeltl airball a freethrow, tbh?

[Budkin]

Really Spurs?

[FkLA]

Purdle is a fucking beast!

[Budkin]

Just gave up 8 points in a minute

[$pursDynasty]

Damn feed LMA

[Leetonidas]

Garbage

[spursistan]

This team is so frustrating.. Zero killer instinct.

[r0drig0lac]

Just gave up 8 points in a minute

dat defense

[$pursDynasty]

Spurs not prepared for LMA double team, no cutters, no picks to free up shooters

[Bad Takes]

Spurs defense is embarrassing.

[Mugen]

"Dante - you're in!"

[Ron Swanson]

The Texas Tech/Michigan game is worse. 11-8 Tech with 7 mins left in the half.

[MoSpur02]

Forbes continues to come through for the Spurs

[MoSpur02]

Too bad our defense isn't good enough to stop this talented and skilled Cavs team with all their superstars

[Leetonidas]

White benched for Mills to close the game.

[Arcadian]

:lol Needing to rally behind the spirit of Manu to compete with the Cavaliers
:lol Still might not be enough

[$pursDynasty]

Sexton checks in and Pop subs in Patty wtf???

[RD2191]

Spurs :lol

[RD2191]

This is beyond pathetic tbh :lol

[8sy21vd]

Sad stuff.

[Leetonidas]

Absolutely disgusting

[Budkin]

Spurs are gonna fucking lose to the Cavs. At home.

[Ron Swanson]

This is how they honor Manu on his jersey retirement night. :lmao

[Capt Bringdown]

Great coaching, Pop.

[MoSpur02]

There's no way we can lose this game! Right??? WTH is wrong with these guys?!?!?

[DAF86]

Can we get Bertans and White in for Forbes and Mills? You know, well rounded players that can help you múltiple ways, instead of one trick midgets?

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Lol pop
Lol mills closing

[Bad Takes]

Rudy Gay has somehow been worse than Mills.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Disgraceful, disgusting, embarrassing, pathetic and just disrespectful.

[NameLess Scrub]

Not enough facepalms in the world :lol

[Mugen]

:lmao

[TheRemix]

Lol just lol

[Mugen]

Patty to close it, never change old man. Never change.

[Ron Swanson]

Damn it, get White in there for Patty.

[SpurPadre]

Manu wasn't the Spurs legend who fucked a teammate's wife so what fucking gives?

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Sorry ass Mills

[NickiRasgo]

What a performance before Manu's retirement ceremony.

[SpurPadre]

Sometimes, I wonder how LMA got us 56 points and then 48 points in a game.

[Budkin]

Gotta be fucking kidding me with that shit.

[Ron Swanson]

Pop, don't get a fucking T.

[Leetonidas]

Lol Pop

[NameLess Scrub]

What kind of call is that??????????????? :lol

[SpurPadre]

I guess the Spurs didn't get the memo that LeBron isn't with the Cavs anymore.

[slick'81]

Forbes continues to come through for the Spurs


Nope everyone here says hes trash

[Hoops Czar]

Sorry ass Mills
Sorry ass Pop.

[Spurs718]

Spurs better not lose on Manu night!

[Bad Takes]

Cavs would have won this game if they didn't play that Osman guy.

[spursistan]

Should not have been that close

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

[GusT15]

Is this embarrassment of a game over yet?

Victory!!!

[3&D_TBH]

So, I know I’m a noob on this forum and all, and maybe I have missed a really good answer to the following question, but I’m going to ask it anyway: When we have a shooter as good as Bertans is from deep, why is there not more of an effort to get him more minutes and more shots? Is it because he is that much of a defensive liability? Because he doesn’t appear to be that much of a liability, at least to my eye (though I could be wrong).

[TheRemix]

Of course Timmy is wearing a t-shirt, jeans, and backwards cap. :lol

Lmao :rollin

[Arcadian]

:lol We won the "don't lose to the worst team in the league on jersey retirement night" championship!

:lol I literally laughed out loud when Patty celebrated like it was the 2014 Finals

[Shakril]

Despite the win, it shows that the Defense of the Spurs down the Stretch is awful.

The two best Defenders are White and Poeltl, those have to play in the Playoffs if the Spurs want to win. Add DeRozean, the Hot hand in terms of 3pt Point shooting (Bertans, Belinelli, Forbes or Mills) and either Gay or LMA (Depending on the matchup).
Otherwise i dont see how they can stop teams at the end of games.

Manu checking Tony isn't making eye contact with his wife, tbh.

[$pursDynasty]

Should have let TP host, much better than Elliott, could take his job if he wanted it.

They better not go in order. Don't need RC stumbling his way through a speech to end it.

Damn is RC last??

[Ron Swanson]

Sean's already taking too long to introduce Pop.

[$pursDynasty]

Pop with a Lil shade too

[SpurPadre]

Fuck, I can't see this now. How did TP throw shade to Manu?

[Play Boban]

Looks like Porker has been eating well tbh.

[Robz4000]

:wow guess RC was too wasted to give a speech

[Ron Swanson]

RC was too drunk to make it off the court, so they just put an extra chair out there for him to sit.

[WallyTiger]

Manu defines 6th man, defines sacrifice.
