Game Thread: PLAYOFFS. Rnd 1, Game 2: Spurs @ Nuggets — Tue. (4/16) - 8:00/C (4:00am Riga Time)

[r0drig0lac]

Gay got fouled twice with no call. Mills and Belinelli are practically unplayable in playoffs.

yep

[K...]

Spurs cant get stops

welcome to 2019

[KDKSpurs24]

Why doesn’t Gay want to take any 3s this game?! He’s just pissing me off..

[Spur|n|Austin]

How the fuck you get juked by Millsap

That was actually pretty slick footwork

[SpurPadre]

Stupid shot by Forbes.

[Xx_SpursNation_xX]

Who told DeFrozan that he's clutch because he's the exact opposite.

[TheGreatYacht]

Faggot gets jucked off his shoes by a PF :lmao

[NameLess Scrub]

I noticed that. You even had Dennis Smith giving a Nuggets shooter tips.

I don't understand neither that nor the Spurs persistent choking of this game

[NASpurs]

Pop B-

[twincam]

Shying away from what got them there...not attacking the inside.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Demar got schooled..........

By a slow big man at a guard's game. Shameful.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Even if Spurs win Pop deserves an F

[CGD]

Not a good game for Rudy today

[Spur|n|Austin]

So White and LMA are coming back in now right? Right Pop? Right?!?!

[$pursDynasty]

FUCK those long jumpers DeRozan!!!! The Spurs needed a quality shot there.
Can't help himself but this version of him is better than end of the quarter one

[RC_Drunkford]

Now we're giving up lay up after lay up. Pop turned a game the team had completely under control into complete chaos

[spurs1990]

Can't afford for this to be a close game in last minute otherwise DeRozan will be taking the last shots

[TDMVPDPOY]

put fkn lma back in

dd doing stupid shit now..fck this clown

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

When this team plays tough d, hard to beat. When not in sync this shit...

[Millennial_Messiah]

Stupid shot by Forbes.

Gary Neal '13 6

[TheGreatYacht]

Who told DeFrozan that he's clutch because he's the exact opposite.
Pop. He said it himself.

[Holden_Caulfield]

these heroball shots are pissing me off granted i havent really watched all season so its probably the norm

[Shakril]

He has 5 fouls... no Pop’s fault the guy is a foul machine.

It is not easy to defend jokic and millsap. Also 2 of those 5 fouls were bad calls. (especially the one were Jokic commitet an offensive foul on jakob).

[RC_Drunkford]

Even if Spurs win Pop deserves an F

This

[NASpurs]

Great game to lose. Lots of teaching moments. CIA Pop.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Now we're giving up lay up after lay up. Pop turned a game the team had completely under control into complete chaos

100%

[Play Boban]

He has 5 fouls... no Pop’s fault the guy is a foul machine.
Pat attention to the scorers table. Poop was benching him for LA with or without that fifth foul. Poop is in a romantic affair with Rudy.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Bad lineups. To much time with both DDR and white off the floor.

[RD2191]

Can Pop gtfo tbh?

[Capt Bringdown]

Gay the chief architect of failure for this game

[LaMarcus Bryant]

It does not seem like we can recover from that horrible third Q lineup Pop stuck with

[skin27]

Derozan playing great and people still bicthing on him:lmao

[spurstalk123456]

PUT LMA IN RIGHT NOW

[NASpurs]

Just like Pop drew it up :lol

[RC_Drunkford]

When you're up 19 in the 3rd what you want to do is have your ballhandler run clock and keep scoring easy points to maintain the difference. This fool goes and subs out both ballhandlers at the same time

[Ron Swanson]

This is a goddamn clusterfuck.

[noles1983]

Derrmarr going full retard

[Xx_SpursNation_xX]

Forbes shit the bed today.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Derozan is not the problem. We had a big lead and played way too fast. Poor shot selection and strategy. Put us in this position.

[Play Boban]

DeFrozen and Forges smh....

[GSH]

I know DeRozan has 25 points, and all the shots count the same. But his shit decisions have fueled this run.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

EPIC chokejob

[baseline bum]

Fucking Playoff DeRozan :pctoss

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

That's what happens when Pop has derozan run point in the 4th

[lefty]

:lmao

[Texas_Ranger]

at least we didn't blow a 31 point lead right? :rollin

[GSH]

They let Murray find his rhythm. FUck.

[NASpurs]

Pop gets Murray going by putting shitty players on him and now he expects White to stop Murray. :lol

[K...]

no need to panic, you expected a tight game right? Battle of who can choke more part 2

[TheGreatYacht]

We literally turn it over every time after Pop's out of timeout plays LMFAOOO

[baseline bum]

I know DeRozan has 25 points, and all the shots count the same. But his shit decisions have fueled this run.

DeRozan is great when he has Will Barton guarding him. Otherwise give the damn ball to someone else.

[spursistan]

The Nuggets will win this one thanks to our senile coach..

[Robz4000]

What a collapse. Fuck Pop.

[Joseph Kony]

fucking pathetic ass choke job

[Xx_SpursNation_xX]

Aldridge and DeFrozan, two just here to get a paycheck losers.

[noles1983]

I know the Spurs are masters of the choke, but this one is one of their best.

[YoungbuckMurray]

God damn how do you blow this game?

[lefty]

at least we didn't blow a 31 point lead right? :rollin

That’s because we are the Warriors Lite

[NASpurs]

Are the Nuggets players going to carry Pop off on their shoulders when they win the game?

[Ron Swanson]

Missed that foul on Jokic.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Oh look at that fucking hack job by Jokic. Fucking officiating.

[Uriel]

What's so frustrating is that this isn't even the first playoff game Pop has lost us.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Pop truly fucked it all up. Game was in the fucking bag.

[Spur|n|Austin]

:lol Pop

Can't defend him on this one -- terrible lineup(s) for half the 3rd and half the 4th.

[bdictjames]

This is the most low IQ Spurs team I've ever witnessed.

[Play Boban]

Forges :lol

[sananspursfan21]

Shitty officiating down the stretch here. Great.

[Kurgan]

Gay the chief architect of failure for this game

Pop. He put his players in a position to fail.

[cjw]

Forbes got fouled

[Mr. Body]

The refs calling everything on the Spurs now. Everything.

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

Bench failed, Spurs look all out of whack and not playing together

[smaka]

How is everything the Spurs do a fucking foul, and nothing Nuggets do is. Pathetic

[ZeusWillJudge]

Forbes fouled shooting a 3. And they called that loose ball foul on Aldridge?

[NASpurs]

How will timvp spin this into a B- for Pop tonight? :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

Thanks a lot Dennis scott you cucklord

[emanueldavidginobili]

Murray out playing white in the second half.

[Capt Bringdown]

Can't believe the Spurs are going to lose this game, but it looks inevitable now.

[RC_Drunkford]

If we lose the series it's because of this game. This will give the Nuggets a whole lot of confidence

[Chris]

Denver first to 100 damn

[Chomag]

Thank you Pop for that shit 3rd Q line up

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

How will timvp spin this into a B- for Pop tonight? :lol

[noles1983]

scrub ass murray cant miss

[Mr. Body]

WTF just happened?

[Robz4000]

:lmao fuck this senile pos

[r0drig0lac]

wtf Pop...in the playoffs

[NASpurs]

WAY TO GIVE THEM POINTS YOU SENILE OLD FUCK :lmao

[Quiet Strength]

Refs...

[DAF86]

Popovich hitting a new low.

[CGD]

They need to run shit through White with this unit.

[resistanze]

Pop is a senile idiot

[Mr. Body]

Definitely feel like the refs started calling a different game in the last five minutes.

[Play Boban]

Holy shit our coach is off the reservation. Getting a technical at this juncture in a tight playoff game? Are you freaking kidding me???

[noles1983]

Senile pop, retire already you old grumpy fuck

[emanueldavidginobili]

I hate this old fuck

[spurstalk123456]

THEY CANT MISS NOW

[baseline bum]

What the fuck is Pop doing getting a technical at this point of the game?

[NameLess Scrub]

Do they realize this was going to be 2-0 series going home?

[Millennial_Messiah]

If they make the free throw and the Spurs lose by 1 or in OT, Poop should be shot tbh...

[Capt Bringdown]

WTF, Pop?

[SpurPadre]

Worst Spurs chokejob since Game 6...

[$pursDynasty]

Hopefully we respond to technical like they did

[TheGreatYacht]

Die crater face. Only way we'll ever get rid of the bastard

[RD2191]

Worthless fucks. Fuck these clowns. Hopefully they get backdoor swept.

[Ron Swanson]

Pop picked the wrong time to throw a fucking tantrum.

[noles1983]

Oh well, at least we stole game 1 from these cucks

[Capt Bringdown]

Do they realize this was going to be 2-0 series going home?

It was in the bag. It's a new series now.

[bdictjames]

Definitely not the Spurs we've gone accustomed to.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

So Pop throws another tantrum and costs us another point at the worst possible time lol

Man fuck this piece of shit seriously. Old senile motherfucker

[NameLess Scrub]

They just can't get a stop. Wonder if that's what happens when you dare someone to make certain shot for 2 straight games

[spursfan09]

The ref didn’t need to call the tech at all!

[ZeusWillJudge]

What the fuck is Pop doing getting a technical at this point of the game?


If a player did that he'd be in the doghouse forever. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Pop got a T just cause they didn’t call a timeout LITERALLY 3 seconds before.

[sananspursfan21]

How does this team have two separate 19 point leads and blow them both??

[spurstalk123456]

losing two 19 point leads in the same game. only the spurs.

[RD2191]

If we lose the series it's because of this game. This will give the Nuggets a whole lot of confidence

We are going to lose this series. I guarantee it.

[lefty]

So what?

Why do you guys care?

It’s not like we would be GS anyway

[weebo]

Refs are taking over this game...

[Holden_Caulfield]

lol hot you get a T when you call a timeout. pathetic

[Millennial_Messiah]

Forbes fouled shooting a 3. And they called that loose ball foul on Aldridge?

No less than Manu getting raked across the arm by Gay Allen at the end of OT in 6......

[Kurgan]

Game was lost in the middle of the 3rd quarter. Denver is in foul trouble and in the bonus, down 19, and Pop decides to take out the only two guys that can drive to basket or handle the ball.

[UZER]

:lol Pop

And Derozan is going to hero ball this team to the offseason. Dude has zero basketball intelligence. Just thinks he should shoot every time.

[bklynspursfan]

The ref didn’t need to call the tech at all!

Nope. Shitty ass ref. He was calling for timeout clearly

[Spurs 4 The Win]

We are gonna blow these clowns out in game 3 and 4. They fucking suck and they arent winning this series. Still might pull this out tonight.

[tbdog]

That's weird for pop to lose it then.

[Larry O]

I think the refs want the McNuggets to win this game, SMH... that "T" against Pop was pathetic!

[Austin_Toros]

Such a terrible performance by Pop tonight.

[paperboy77]

Pop needs to be investigated. WTF! 19 pt lead twice! Pop shits it down the drain. Gutless worms those assistant coaches! Better to ask for forgiveness than permission.... call a damn timeout!

[ZeusWillJudge]

The ref didn’t need to call the tech at all!

Pop forced him to call it.

[NameLess Scrub]

On the other hand. He had the right to a timeout

[NASpurs]

How does this team have two separate 19 point leads and blow them both??

Eat your hearts out Warriors.

[TheGreatYacht]

Of course this little faggot alt shows up.
Suck my fucking dick with your dead mother's lips

[TheDoctor]

Typical Pop, benched the hottest player (50Mills) at the wrong time

[testies]

I want to see Aldridge cucked by GSW one more time, wait I dont

[RD2191]

Pop is such a fucking faggot tbh. Never got the fuck over himself. Trying to get cute coming back to bite him in the ass.

[Uriel]

Definitely feel like the refs started calling a different game in the last five minutes.
They caved to the crowd.

[Keepin' it real]

So far, Rudy has looked like dog shit. Why?

[ZeusWillJudge]

Nope. Shitty ass ref. He was calling for timeout clearly


Yeah, but after Pop got his attention, he just kept yelling at the ref. He begged him to call the T.

[BanditHiro]

god this is just the worst way to lose since Nuggets will have way more momentum if they had just blown us out or just won a close game

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

This fucking game was in the bag. Fuckin pop man. Jesus Christ

[emanueldavidginobili]

MILLS CHECKING IN lmaoooo

[testies]

Forbes for Mills is crime worthy substitution

[NASpurs]

Have the Nuggets missed in the past 10 minutes? It honestly doesn't feel like it.

[noles1983]

So much dead weight on this roster

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Yeah, but after Pop got his attention, he just kept yelling at the ref. He begged him to call the T.

Exactly Pop got desperate

[Chris]

damn

[Mr. Body]

Murray definitely came alive.

[Leetonidas]

Game

[spurstalk123456]

wow so digsusting. truly.

[TDMVPDPOY]

ddr over dribbling stalling the spurs offense

forbes with the stupid shot selection bricks

lma playing soft again with long mid range shots

white being ignored out there....give him the ball to create

[noles1983]

Game. Fluky ass shot.

[Robz4000]

God I hate Pop.

[Dverde]

Murray hitting tough shots. Still not impressed with him or Gary Harris. Nuggets future not that bright.

[YoungbuckMurray]

Rudy gay pathetic game just pathetic

[Proxy]

fuck yall, refs don't call fucking techs in the closing minutes like that. Call the timeout when Pop is yelling it

[Mr. Body]

Denver badly needed this and they got it. Need to pick back up and take Game 3.

[Larry O]

DD10 needs to attack the rim!

[RD2191]

Now I remember why I didn't watch these choking bums and Pop for most of the season.

[NASpurs]

Pop got Murray going by putting Beli and those other no defense fucks.

[Ron Swanson]

That will do it. Completely shit the bed.

[TheDoctor]

C'mon Spursrefs, do something you fuckers

[Chomag]

Lmao spurs letting that scrub go off

[noles1983]

Denver acting like they won the championship :rollin

[Uriel]

:lmao

[BatManu20]

That’s game.

[resistanze]

Game. Just got owned from a cocky queer Canadian. Fuck Pop tbh

[Death In June]

Your solution is to bring in Mills???? You dumb fuck

[Holden_Caulfield]

why the fuck is rudy in :lol

[ZeusWillJudge]

They caved to the crowd.



Did you see that arm hack by Jokic on Aldridge? Like Aldridge just decided to chuck the ball away for no reason? Pretty shitty turn of events. Those refs didn't WANT to call anything against Denver.

[$pursDynasty]

Not his fault directly but Patty is a jinx he comes in bad things happen

[bdictjames]

Game. Set. Match. Tough loss.

[Shakril]

Have the Nuggets missed in the past 10 minutes? It honestly doesn't feel like it.

Poeltl forced some missed shots. Since he is off the court spurs are horrible on defense.

[ducks]

White going out got Murray going

[timtonymanu]

Not the end of the world, series wise. But what a bunch of soft goddamn bitches in that 2nd half, all starting with Pop. These guys better be pissed for their home games.

[smaka]

What the fuck is Rudy doing out there.
+ Can somebody make a hard foul on that fucker Murray

[GSH]

Fuck I wish I never sat down to watch this game.

[Uriel]

1118352615203434496

[RD2191]

:lmao:lmao spurms

[lefty]

Murray > Jordan

[noles1983]

I reminded myself why i havent given 2 shits about this team all year

[Keepin' it real]

We just lost the NBA finals right there. :(

[NameLess Scrub]

This is what might happen when you let the other team erase an almost 20 pt lead casually

[Blackhaus]

Fuckin pop playing mills and gay, totally swung the game

[Mr. Body]

Murray won this game. 7-7 in the fourth, man.

[timtonymanu]

Never count out Pop and his stupidity in moments like these

[paperboy77]

this is COMPLETELY on POP! Oh my gosh.... incredible.

[ElNono]

Dagger

[boutons_deux]

+16 TO -9 25 SWING

[ZeusWillJudge]

It's the DeMar Derozan Show!

[Mr. Body]

8-8

[DAF86]

We had the series won, now we have lost it. This one is on Pop. When you have a team led by chokers, as coach you can't allow to have the absolute shitshow Pop pulled at the end of the 3rd.

[K...]

ok I'm out, this team just doesn't have the instincts to win. Nice players, but you can't teach hunger

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Is there a grade lower than an F that Pop can get.

This fucking series was over if we had gone up 2-0

Senile old crater face piece of shit

Can't wait for Pops smart ass press conference

[RD2191]

Hopefully they leave Pop in Denver

[emanueldavidginobili]

We split. Let’s not get stingy haha. TBH Spurs in 5.

[Leetonidas]

Of course this fucking faggot can't miss now

[mexicanjunior]

Nuggets in 5...Pop should be fired...wished we had lottery balls tbh...

[paperboy77]

Hate that Sean and Bill are oblivious to who's fault it is.

[Quiet Strength]

What has rudy done to earn playing time in the 4th?

[YoungbuckMurray]

We must have less than 5 stops on the 4th

[Mr. Body]

This is where those fucking long 2s are fucking killer. They don't do shit.

[K...]

good, kick all their players in the nuts

[SpurPadre]

Murray won this game. 7-7 in the fourth, man.

Wish we had a player that clutch in the 4th...

[noles1983]

This team is bitch made.

[ZeusWillJudge]

this is COMPLETELY on POP! Oh my gosh.... incredible.


I hope TIMVP sends his ass to reform school for this grade.

[Truth4sale$]

No floor spaces. Belinelli sitting on the bench

[paperboy77]

Sit the fuck down Pop.

[smaka]

These bs calls aren't helping either

[Uriel]

Denver gonna cover the spread too.

[$pursDynasty]

Your solution is to bring in Mills???? You dumb fuck
Patty sux Pop shouldn't play him so much

[Texas_Ranger]

it will be a great day when most of this retarded players are gone.

[Chris]

Gay -19 rn

[Chomag]

Will Pop ever get over himself before he retires tbh?

[NameLess Scrub]

It's like they really wanted to drop this one

[RD2191]

Guaranteed this series is over. Hopefully denver wins the next 3 and puts these worthless fucks out of their misery.

[Jay.From.NbTx]

We choked per usual
I blame this one on patty belli and most of all Rudy...

[emanueldavidginobili]

After watching 2 games. I’m not worried WHATSOEVER

[Capt Bringdown]

Painful loss. Pop pissed this one away.

[Degoat]

WTF POP

[Spurs fever]

I can't wait to get DJ back. We could really use his defense out there.

[Keepin' it real]

Monster rebound Lonnie!

[spurs1990]

If it makes it any easier, Jamal Murray played out of his mind during this last stretch. Single handedly won the game for Denver

[hoopdreams11]

gay with the -18

[NameLess Scrub]

Couldn't they just come in from the timeout with 3pt shooting plays?

[DAF86]

Up 20 with little more than a quarter to go and instead of keeping the foot on the pedal Pop went with a Mills, Forbes, Bellinelli perimeter. Any other coach would get murdered for it.

[mclinejr]

We took a game in Denver. On to the next.

[tbdog]

Just today's NBA where you no longer control games. You just make runs.

[Larry O]

DD10, attack the rim, not miss jumpers, SMH...

[emanueldavidginobili]

Yeah we blew it but we’re going back to SA tied 1-1 stop bitching Jesus Christ lmao.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Who cares? Sure Pop’s rotations were crap as we’ve come to expect since the last championship team but this team wasn’t going anywhere anyways. Bunch of mentally weak players that have 0 fight and leadership.

[SpurPadre]

If Denver gets a split in the next two, it's over for us, tbh.

[jjktkk]

Suck my fucking dick with your dead mother's lips

Go rub your mom's bunions twat. And scrape them while you're at it. I'm too busy tickling her baloon knot.

[gameFACE]

Gay the momentum shifter. Wow, that was pathetic.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

The bench got raped. Patty on Murray was hilarious. Pop let that cocky scrub catch fire

[Death In June]

Pop won’t coach that horrendously again and Gay played one of the worst games of his career. DD’s game is trash.

[TDomination]

Welcome to the playoffs

Spurs outplayed them for like 7 of 8 quarters and now we are coming home.

I completely expect us to win games 3 and 4

[noles1983]

Despite their regular season road record, Denver gonna go in deep in SA.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Is there a grade lower than an F that Pop can get.

This fucking series was over if we had gone up 2-0

Senile old crater face piece of shit

Can't wait for Pops smart ass press conference

[timtonymanu]

This would have been fine if the Spurs didn’t toy with everyone by blowing them out early but now it’s a frustrating loss

[NameLess Scrub]

This team is really irritating. I'd prefer the blow out. Throwing away a game hurts worse

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Rudy Gay was horrendous. Looked slow and washed

[TheGreatYacht]

Yeah we blew it but we’re going back to SA tied 1-1 stop bitching Jesus Christ lmao.
You have to go back amigo

[Spurch]

Just can't believe we lost this game, I'm really disappointed in my team even though I still believe we'll win this series

[Millennial_Messiah]

:pctoss :pctoss :pctoss

[tbdog]

gay with the -18

Gay was responsible for the collapse in the third. Pop went to Gay to control the game and he responded by committing turn overs and missing bunnies.

[daslicer]

Guaranteed this series is over. Hopefully denver wins the next 3 and puts these worthless fucks out of their misery.

Overreaction. Pop cost the team the game but Denver is not that good. Their players are just super streaky. Spurs will get at least 1 of the next 2 games at home and maybe both.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Yeah we blew it but we’re going back to SA tied 1-1 stop bitching Jesus Christ lmao.

[smaka]

Pop probably teaching the team with this loss to get over themselves :lol pathetic

[DAF86]

This will give that young Nuggets squad all the confidence in the World. I'm seething mad right now.

[TE]

Game that could have been had. A series of coaching errors mostly in the 3rd and a little less in the 4th quarters.

Lost opportunity, smh.

[noles1983]

Who cares? Sure Pop’s rotations were crap as we’ve come to expect since the last championship team but this team wasn’t going anywhere anyways. Bunch of mentally weak players that have 0 fight and leadership.

This. Not sure why I even tuned in tonight. Whats the point, tbh.
