Game Thread: Game 82, Spurs vs Mavs, 10 APR 19, 19:00 CT, Goodbye Dirk

[SpurPadre]

For what? We would have got Denver either way. This way, at least, we get a higher draft pick.

True. I was thinking more along symbolic lines of moving up a seed from last year as a "Fuck You, Kawhi" deal. But it doesn't matter in the long run.

Great class by spurs fans. Got some chills there at the end. Respect for Dirk!

[SpurPadre]

You know what's sadder than Dirk retiring? That LMA had to play 36 minutes at home to put this team away.

[Mugen]

Pretty fucking amazing that the team is gonna get a higher pick and still play Denver (hopefully).

[Mugen]

Even more impressive, the FO managed to find a 7 foot european stiff that is worse than Pau. I wonder if they're going to max his ass in the summer so Pop can talk to somebody about the USSR.

that's only cause Mills took 3 shots in a row and missed all of them. Then he wanted the ball from White to miss the 4th shot in a row, but White was too smart, passed it to DeRozan, got it back and nailed the 3. Mills is such a negative on the court it ain't even funny. Even Forbes is a way better player than him

I'd rather play Portland, tbh. LMA is comfortable there and would love to show them up whereas Denver is almost unbeatable at home, especially against the worst road western conference playoff team.

Dirk had a solid last game. For a minute I thought our guys were going to blow that win

Forbes still should not play over 20 minutes a game in the playoffs, tbh.

[TE]

What an ending. Crazy how the years fly

Denver or Houston are the only options.

[TheGreatYacht]

You volunteering again? I don't the Spurs want some creepy fucker like you checking them out in the showers.
Wtf are talking about you weird fuck? You keep quoting me with your homosexual fantasies. Keep that shit to yourself faggot

[phxspurfan]

Glad I have LP and can watch the Nugz game rather than another BS LA game by BSPN

[SpurPadre]

Denver or Houston are the only options.

I thought Rip City owns the tie-breaker with them.

[resistanze]

I thought Rip City owns the tie-breaker with them.

Portland can bump Houston to 4th, but they can't get 2nd from what I understand.

[phxspurfan]

:lol Wolves are such a shitty team. They're arguing with each other on the court

[SpurPadre]

:lol Wolves are such a shitty team. They're arguing with each other on the court

Dubs do that shit too, tbh.

[Mikeanaro]

Fuck Dirk, thank he is gone forever.

[Shakril]

Fuck Dirk, thank he is gone forever.

What did he do to deserve your hatred?

[SpursforSix]

So 19:00 AM or PM?

Thanks for the help :tu

If it’s dark outside at 9, then it’s PM. Just check at both 9’s. Whichever one the game is at, if it’s dark, that’s 9 PM.
Anyway, they’d never play a b-ball game at 9 am

Was funny when everyone was starting to boo the Spurs playing tight D on Dirk.

[jbspurs]

Correct me if I am wrong, I just watched the replay, saw the trivia. Who did Ali challenge in the Rumble in the Jungle? Host said correct answer is Joe Frazier. Isn't George Foreman for the Rumble in the Jungle and Frazier for Thrilla in Manila? Definitely not JON CENA:rollin

i also thought I heard them ask, who played James Arness in Gunsmoke. And the answer was Matt Dillon. That’s backwards.

You're not wrong.

I didn't notice the booing, but contesting that shot just made everything perfect. His last shot in the NBA, and it was just Vintage Dirk. Perfect way to end it, IMO.

And now Eubanks can be the subject of a trivia question in the future.

:rollin They don't even know the answer to their trivia... Fun night indeed! Also, I love how the fans showed their respect to one of the greatest players in the NBA. Thank you Dirk!

I agree! Pop was screaming at Eubanks already :rollin

[Mikeanaro]

What did he do to deserve your hatred?
He was overrated, never popular and somehow now he was the best ever, fuck him and Wade.
Both wheelchair clowns, have been corpses for like 5 years.

[BillMc]

Didn't get to see the game. Hope Spurs came out of it injury free. Brackets are perfect.

[Shakril]

Ok, you have lost me. From now on i will ingore you. You clearly have no clue about Basketball.

[JeffDuncan]

Don't think there was any injury. Only thing reported was Cunningham dnp due to illness.

[BillMc]

Thanks. Good to hear we go into the playoffs healthy

THIS, even Dabom couldn't deny the facts if he were being truthful and not trolling.

You aint worth a turd, so who cares?

[Gagnrath]

Damn, that must have been a goddamn good tribute video. :lol

Either that or it was a guy starting the shift on the last day of a job after 20 years.... A huge number of people in the world get wmotional about that even if they bitch and moan about that job every day.
