[skin27]

Too bad we will lose in Denver

[smaka]

Lets push this lead to 20 and kill those motherfuckers!

[GreekSpursfan]

Lillard is rolling in his bed right now

[Holden_Caulfield]

white being aggressive = we dont suck

[SpurPadre]

He made it but dumbass fucking shot, tbh.

[KDKSpurs24]

That’s not the dagger yet! Gotta keep playing hard!

[Play Boban]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsWY6BOIO9I
:lmao

[FkLA]

Poeltl is the real hero. Dude is everything you want out of your C outside of his shitty FT shooting

Best incoming piece in the Nephew trade, tbh.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Patty is trash, and hope he doesn't see the damn floor again tonight. Can't wait to see his C or b grade

[paperboy77]

Too bad Jokic gonna come back in and teabag the team with his spicy meatballs.

Hope your a female after saying that

[DAF86]

He made it but dumbass fucking shot, tbh.

Clock was running down.

[hater]

Too bad we will lose in Denver

Sure but pushing to a 7 game series is nice

[Genovaswitness]

poetel needs to play 40+ minutes a night

[KDKSpurs24]

He made it but dumbass fucking shot, tbh.
As long as he had confidence I was fine with it. Because what else shot can THIS TEAM get in 5 seconds that was way better than that?

[GreekSpursfan]

Mills was very good defensively imo.Zero on the other end though.

[UZER]

Ok now run clock EVERY POSSESSION. No Mills/Manu quick 3s for the love

This team needs the ride this rhythm into the next game. Keep the pedal to the metal.

[Capt Bringdown]

white being aggressive = we dont suck

Agreed, but he's not being aggressive enough in this game. Almost like's he's lost a step.

[Robz4000]

:lmao FSSW already airing game 7 commercials. The jinx is in.

[FkLA]

He made it but dumbass fucking shot, tbh.

Bryn "el salvador" Forbes tbh

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

He made it but dumbass fucking shot, tbh.

True lol if he misses that we are all pissed off

[KDKSpurs24]

Too bad we will lose in Denver
IF we win this then Denver might get nervous as fk hopefully

[GreekSpursfan]

Lets fucking go

[FkLA]

Mills was very good defensively imo.Zero on the other end though.

lol are you pop?

[spurstalk123456]

Fucking hell if pop didn't ruin game 2 for us this series would be over. Game 7 is going to be hard as fuck

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Still too much time

[808]

Pour it on

[bklynspursfan]

Way to fight. Big time quarter

[GreekSpursfan]

There you go White, don't pass the ball that much, get yours

[Uriel]

3 point shooting really is key in this series. Whoever makes shots wins.

[slick'81]

Hold up now.. a bit premature. That’s hell of a lot of time


Nope. Forgone conclusion

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

lol are you pop?

http://i66.tinypic.com/x1wqvd.jpg

[emanueldavidginobili]

Mills coming back in. Disgusting

[Kurgan]

White or Beli should have taken that shot instead of giving it to LMA with three seconds left

[SpurPadre]

Bryn "el salvador" Forbes tbh

LOL

[Robz4000]

Here comes Denver.

[Seventyniner]

Making Jokic be a scorer is working pretty damn well so far.

[Keepin' it real]

Lol 19 point lead jinx

[Play Boban]

Forges cancerous defense.

[Uriel]

Game's not over. Let's keep the foot on the gas pedal.

[DAF86]

Our two best players out. Watch Denver make a run now.

[SpurPadre]

Clock was running down.

the ball hit the rim and the clock reset.

[KDKSpurs24]

White has to realize he is a guard vs a big and he needs to take that shot instead of giving it up with the shot clock running down. That’s why we ended up with an even worse shot

[Rummpd]

Spurs need to keep scoring cause the caveman getting 45 plus

[RD2191]

If we blow this... :lol

[GreekSpursfan]

Why the hell did White end up with milsap under the basket? Fucking hell man

[FkLA]

Wombat in holy shit :lmao

[Shakril]

Poeltl out in a phase were Defense is important???

[DAF86]

Game's not over. Let's keep the foot on the gas pedal.

Subbing out White and Poeltl =/= keeping the foot on the gas

[NASpurs]

http://i66.tinypic.com/x1wqvd.jpg

:lmao :lmao

[Rummpd]

Big basket

[bklynspursfan]

I thought they were gonna call DeMar for a charge lol

[Play Boban]

Why did poop take White and MVPoeltl out? Tempting fate. :lol

[GreekSpursfan]

Living Jokic alone, wtfuuuuuuck

[ZeusWillJudge]

White or Beli should have taken that shot instead of giving it to LMA with three seconds left


That was a shit possession, start to finish.

[slick'81]

Game 7 is on

[808]

Wtf play your best players!

[bklynspursfan]

Poeltl out in a phase were Defense is important???

A phase with a lead so big to spare a few mins for him

[DAF86]

the ball hit the rim and the clock reset.

No, it didn't. Forbes shot it with like 2 seconds left. You could see it on the screen.

[Rummpd]

DDR

[808]

I thought they were gonna call DeMar for a charge lol

Same lol

[emanueldavidginobili]

Get mills TF out

[Shakril]

White and Poeltl out and i get nervous....

[Capt Bringdown]

White making plays and Pop benches him

[Keepin' it real]

Now we need 27 for Denver to lose his cool and get suspended for game 7.

[NASpurs]

DeRozan is clutch when the team is up 10+. Reminds me of TP

[bklynspursfan]

Nice.. DeMar is feeling it. Nice fight by Gay to create that

[ZeusWillJudge]

Bryn "el salvador" Forbes tbh


LOL


LOL. I caught shit from you when I said that.

[HarlemHeat37]

DeRozan has been great tonight, give respect where it's due..

[bklynspursfan]

DeRozan is clutch when the team is up 10+. Reminds me of TP

He was clutch while it was close all last quarter

[r0drig0lac]

mvp mode on for Demar

[hater]

Damn de rozan

Rutess old scho bastard

[Robz4000]

Now it's over. On to Game 7.

[boutons_deux]

1 more AST for Jokic triple-double

[808]

Why is Pop waiting til Denver catches up to play white and Poeltl

[SpurPadre]

Someone do the bow and arrow shit in Murray's smug fucking face.

[Play Boban]

No, it didn't. Forbes shot it with like 2 seconds left. You could see it on the screen.
Yep. I despise Forges, but that was a good shot. The clock was running down tbh.

[SASdynasty!]

Demar going HOTS

[GreekSpursfan]

Game 7 it is then. Thank god they didn't eliminate us in our home floor.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Why did poop take White and MVPoeltl out? Tempting fate. :lol

Wants to show he calls the shots lol

[DAF86]

Save some of that for game 7 DeMar.

[drpill]

DeClozin

[ZeusWillJudge]

Now it's over. You can start blowing each other.

[NASpurs]

Demar going HOTS

Yeah the similarities are uncanny.

[Play Boban]

Why is Pop waiting til Denver catches up to play white and Poeltl
Actually a meaningful triple dub unlike Westbrick’s empty ones too. :lmao

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Why is Pop waiting til Denver catches up to play white and Poeltl

Bc he's an asshole

[ducks]

Crack nugget confidence

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Hopefully we dont get done like the Mavs did in 2014 in Game 7 :lol

[smaka]

Demar is feasting right now.

Also, the strategy to not double Jokic and play him straight up is fine. Let him score, but he alone wont kill you, its their shooters who gave us problems in the losses.

[SpurPadre]

LOL. I caught shit from you when I said that.

It helps to win a Game 6 and force Game 7, tbh.

[Kurgan]

DeRozan is clutch when the team is up 10+. Reminds me of TP

He's a statpad scorer. He will only make his shots when his team has a comfortable lead. In a close game or when his team is behind, he misses every shot. Does not play well at all under pressure.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Damn DeRozan 9/10 in 2nd half

[Spurs 4 The Win]

I actually think Game 7 is fairly winnable, they will choke and we just need to have a good shooting night.

[FkLA]

Pop trusts his pet wombat more than White. Pretty disgusting. I know he's a humble dude but I'd be pissed if I was White.

[SpurPadre]

Jokic only in there to get his 40. Fucker.

[SASdynasty!]

At this point let Mills keep shooting so maybe Pop will bench him next game

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Lol Fatty

[ZeusWillJudge]

LOL. Jokic decides he's going to the rim and starts throwing that chicken wing even before there's anyone there to push.

[Kurgan]

Fatty 0-6

[Uriel]

Malone isn't giving up.

[bklynspursfan]

Rudy off the glass in honor of TD

[808]

Hope Gay really got his swag back for game 7

[NASpurs]

He's a statpad scorer. He will only make his shots when his team has a comfortable lead. In a close game or when his team is behind, he misses every shot. Does not play well at all under pressure.

Yeah I agree, exactly like TP.

[FkLA]

Not only does Pop have White on the bench but he's out here running plays for his pet wombat. This is gross. :vomit:

[KDKSpurs24]

I’m hella impressed for with effort on defense. He can stay

[slick'81]

Lets get game 7

[sananspursfan21]

This is exactly what our guys need. Blow the doors open so they second guess game 7.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Fatty with the stupid pass

[hater]

Do not let that scrub Murray make a basket agai

Fuck his psyche

[KDKSpurs24]

Patty is horrible. Didn’t even need that

[skin27]

IF we win this then Denver might get nervous as fk hopefully
nah...they will get motivated to win game7 in their home floor

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Not only does Pop have White on the bench but he's out here running plays for his pet wombat. This is gross. :vomit:

TBH Pop deserves to lose even though I want my team to win lol

[Avitus1]

Hopefully, they can take this intensity to Denver.

[SpurPadre]

No, it didn't. Forbes shot it with like 2 seconds left. You could see it on the screen.

Oh. The ball did hit the rim though. Refs missed it.

[Capt Bringdown]

Pop really going with Mills as the closer? The little fucker might as well be wearing Denver Blue.

[Shakril]

A phase with a lead so big to spare a few mins for him

Not with 7 mins left against a Denver team that can get streaky from 3 (16pt lead at that time)

[KDKSpurs24]

Do not let that scrub Murray make a basket agai

Fuck his psyche
He strikes me as someone who gets nervous easily. He is talented and can get hot but he is capable of losing his confidence at will

[FkLA]

Is anybody else fucking pissed that this faggot went with Wombat instead of White down the stretch?

[slick'81]

Pop really going with Mills as the closer? The little fucker might as well be wearing Denver Blue.


But hell get less minutes next season :lmao

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Lonnie in

http://i63.tinypic.com/2agvxnb.jpg

[Uriel]

This series has reinforced my belief that this is really a make-or-miss league. You can make all the adjustments in the world, but if you don't make shots, it doesn't mean squat.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Is anybody else fucking pissed that this faggot went with Wombat instead of White down the stretch?


I don't even know what to say. Must be a culture thing, because it sure as shit isn't about basketball.

[SpurPadre]

If Mills has this performance on Saturday along with the same minutes, we fucked, tbh.

[Raven]

well i guess we saved our face with this.

[slick'81]

This series has reinforced my belief that this is really a make-or-miss league. You can make all the adjustments in the world, but if you don't make shots, it doesn't mean squat.


Pop says it all the time

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Is anybody else fucking pissed that this faggot went with Wombat instead of White down the stretch?

Yeah the fucking crazy old man does that kind of shit on purpose

[Uriel]

I don't think there are going to be a whole lot of adjustments for either team in Game 7. These teams have already played each other 10 times this year. They know each other pretty well. It'll all come down to who can make shots and who can step up under pressure.

[GreekSpursfan]

Pop did the right thing again by putting fresh legs to keep the pressure on. I have zero problem in this specific case why he took White out.

[BillMc]

Davis doesn't even get garbage time minutes now. What did he do? He sucked, but not any more than Beli or Patty.

[808]

Is anybody else fucking pissed that this faggot went with Wombat instead of White down the stretch?

Yeah... that shit isn't cute under any circumstances

[KDKSpurs24]

Not only does Pop have White on the bench but he's out here running plays for his pet wombat. This is gross. :vomit:
Actually... Since the game is won it’s not a bad idea to try to get him in a rhythm obviously

[Play Boban]

Lonnie Walker subzero IQ

[r0drig0lac]

easy for Walker

[ZeusWillJudge]

This series has reinforced my belief that this is really a make-or-miss league. You can make all the adjustments in the world, but if you don't make shots, it doesn't mean squat.


Yeah, but it makes a difference when the Spurs are taking shit shots and the Nuggets are getting clean in the paint. It's a lot harder to make more shots than them when that happens.

[slick'81]

Davis doesn't even get garbage time minutes now. What did he do? He sucked, but not any more than Beli or Patty.

Hes been awful

[GreekSpursfan]

Go Spurs Go :flag:

[skin27]

We just have to enjoy this victory

[SASdynasty!]

What was that?

[hater]

Did jokic just kiss his boyfriend?

[KimmyGib]

Good series, tbh. 7 games of non-3-point-chucking-contest basketball.

[resistanze]

Who the fuck was that dude licking Jokic's face? :lmao

[marinoman]

Mills really sux on defense and offense. I was hoping he’d make a 3 in garbage time but nope. Patty and Pop giving Patty all those minutes will cost us game 7

[Spurs 4 The Win]

was jockitch kissing a dude? Wtf

[FkLA]

I don't even know what to say. Must be a culture thing, because it sure as shit isn't about basketball.

Literally hasn't made a fucking basket+same old trash defense and he gets to close. If White is even remotely struggling on offense he pulls the plug on him immediately despite being all-defense on the other end.

He needs to retire from coaching. Go into a Pat Riley role for us.

[808]

Glad there isn't two days off before the next game

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Did jokic just kiss his boyfriend?

:lmao

Looked like a brother or something lol

[boutons_deux]

0-7 tonight

what's Patty shooting for 3Gs thru 6 games?

[RC_Drunkford]

Great win. Everybody played well and hard

[Spurtacular]

"Do or die, literally"

Dat USC education. :lmao

[bklynspursfan]

This series has reinforced my belief that this is really a make-or-miss league. You can make all the adjustments in the world, but if you don't make shots, it doesn't mean squat.

Yea. But it seemed they let Jokic go 1 on 1 more and they focused on containing their shooters

[Amuseddaysleeper]

You’re welcome everybody

[boutons_deux]

57% FG, amazing.

that's some playoff bball

[slick'81]

0-7 tonight

what's Patty shooting for 3Gs thru 6 games?


All u need to know is 50 mills

[SASdynasty!]

"Do or die, literally"

Dat USC education. :lmao
Haha I caught that

[emanueldavidginobili]

Great game from DDR tbh 12/16 7 and 7. Hopefully he can turn the corner and play good on the road in a game 7

[slick'81]

You’re welcome everybody


Do it again tbh

[daslicer]

Did jokic just kiss his boyfriend?

:lol that's what I was thinking.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Jockitch was literally just swapping tongue with some dude on national TV, what the fuck was that :lol

[hater]

:lmao

Looked like a brother or something lol

:lmao

That shit looked like gay euro porno


Not that I seen it Nog but can see that shit playing the techno music :lmao

[RC_Drunkford]

Patty has a finger injury on his off hand. Said it doesn't bother him but it clearly does. He played ok tonight though

[FkLA]

Pop did the right thing again by putting fresh legs to keep the pressure on. I have zero problem in this specific case why he took White out.

At this point, theres no way you aren't a troll and/or Pop himself.

[slick'81]

Patty has a finger injury on his off hand. Said it doesn't bother him but it clearly does. He played ok tonight though


:lmao

[Mikeanaro]

Jockitch was literally just swapping tongue with some dude on national TV, what the fuck was that :lol
For SJW purposes, NBA will give them more good calls from now on.

[ducks]

Patty better fucking show up in game 7

[RD2191]

Proud of these guys. Didn't think they had it in them. :flag:

[808]

You’re welcome everybody

Thanks dawg. Got Murray a lil fucked up too

[ducks]

Patty has a finger injury on his off hand. Said it doesn't bother him but it clearly does. He played ok tonight though

He played as well as Clinton did against TRUMP

[Kori Ellis]

You’re welcome everybody

:tu

[FkLA]

Patty has a finger injury on his off hand. Said it doesn't bother him but it clearly does. He played ok tonight though

Wut? Are we grading him on a curve? Did he even hit any shots other than those two layups?

[sananspursfan21]

Excellent win. I seriously feel good about game 7. If this game was won by single digits, Nuggets confidence is unwavered. I guarantee they’re second guessing themselves

[Play Boban]

Pop going angry old man in the interview.

[RC_Drunkford]

Great game plan by Pop. Trade their 3s for 2s. Let Jokić score and stay home on their shooters. And he finally staggered White and DeRozan

[ducks]

Make America Great Again
Spurs win title !

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Patty better fucking show up in game 7

I'd rather he not board the plane

Give it a rest bro. Go to the game thread on trumptalk.com

[DAF86]

Pop's act on press conferences got old a very long time ago.

[sananspursfan21]

“It’s the playoffs, nobody’s gonna come out flat” - Pop

well, what would you call game 5???

[sasaint]

Oh. The ball did hit the rim though. Refs missed it.

Did you go back and replay it? I didn't. I initially thought it caught rim, and I think almost all the players thought so, too. So, Bryn showed pretty good awareness there. I was shocked he put it up until the replay showed the shot clock winding down.

[GreekSpursfan]

At this point, theres no way you aren't a troll and/or Pop himself.

The result speaks for itself. He put fresh legs, while Denver kept the same lineup. Mills was very good defensively, i don't know what game you watched. He was trash shooting the ball but defensively he was solid imo.

[RC_Drunkford]

https://twitter.com/evanslame/status/1121601929103200256?s=19

That explains the herpes on his upper lip

[Uriel]

Excellent win. I seriously feel good about game 7. If this game was won by single digits, Nuggets confidence is unwavered. I guarantee they’re second guessing themselves
Agreed. Normally, blowout wins are bad in the playoffs. But we badly needed this one for our confidence.

[Play Boban]

Kisses like that are per par among European men tbh. Non-issue....

[sasaint]

“It’s the playoffs, nobody’s gonna come out flat” - Pop

well, what would you call game 5???

I wish some water-kneed "journalist" would ask that.

[ducks]

Patty has a finger injury on his off hand. Said it doesn't bother him but it clearly does. He played ok tonight though

If he is hurt he should not fucking play

[Uriel]

Shaq picked us for Game 7.

[sasaint]

Poetl is an elite rim protector, tbh.

:tu If he could expand his offensive repertoire just a little bit, he would be a fixture for us for years. He still might be.

[lefty]

Shaq picked us for Game 7.
Shit

[playbonner15]

Amuseddaysleeper making magic

[HarlemHeat37]

Shaq picked us for Game 7.

Thank god, I was having doubts:toast:

[bklynspursfan]

[MoSpur02]

Fans were lit tonight. Really good game. Our two Star players did their thing and our role players improved.

[Spurch]

Kisses like that are per par among European men tbh. Non-issue....

I think that's his brother though

[ducks]

Denver 8-33 outside of paint

72 points in paint

[Spurch]

I'm not sure if anyone on this forum said it but the key to this win is "Rudy Gay" as I was begging him to do he finally showed up thanks Rudy thanks

[Keepin' it real]

DDR with the SERIES-ALTERING hustle play!!

Man, even the Denver coach agrees. That play changed EVERYTHING.

[BillMc]

You’re welcome everybody
:flag: Well done.

[Spurch]

Shaq picked us for Game 7.

Good call Shaq

[playbonner15]

Denver 8-33 outside of paint

72 points in paint

Damn wish the team drafted Jokic. 41st pick!

[NASpurs]

Asking for a friend but is the next game a must-win?

[SpurPadre]

Did you go back and replay it? I didn't. I initially thought it caught rim, and I think almost all the players thought so, too. So, Bryn showed pretty good awareness there. I was shocked he put it up until the replay showed the shot clock winding down.

I did. It hit the rim. The refs better not try to fuck us like that on Saturday.

[SpurPadre]

Asking for a friend but is the next game a must-win?

You should ask Pop, tbh.

[Spurch]

That pick and roll or 1-2 between Murray and yokic seriously needs to be addressed by pop it's us some damage.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Holy shit! Just heard Denver had 72 points in the paint, and 28 second chance points. The Spurs HAVE to slow that shit down on the road. If the refs job Poeltl with the whistles again, they're screwed.

[Spurch]

You should ask Pop, tbh.
Lol... Not a good idea

[sasaint]

I did. It hit the rim. The refs better not try to fuck us like that on Saturday.

In Denver? Don't hold your breath. I will not be surprised if one of our guys gets in early foul trouble again or if somebody fouls out - probably in crunch time on a spurious call in a tight game.

[ducks]

Holy shit! Just heard Denver had 72 points in the paint, and 28 second chance points. The Spurs HAVE to slow that shit down on the road. If the refs job Poeltl with the whistles again, they're screwed.

Stop the threes let their big go off

[ZeusWillJudge]

Stop the threes let their big go off

Yeah, but 28 second chance points.

[jjktkk]

Proud of these guys. Didn't think they had it in them. :flag:

:tu

[NameLess Scrub]

I'm a fan and enjoy the win but is moot towards the results of the series. Just enjoying the moment and getting the Nuggets more tired for the Blazers.

Spurs will get back to getting owned by NBA2k My Player guards in game 7. Probably blown out.

[Mugen]

Props to Derozan and LMA tonight, they stepped up. Earned a pass to shit the bed in Game 7 :lol

[Spurs4#5]

I think the best adjustment pop made was putting Rudy in with Aldridge and Jakob. They had no one to guard him at the 3 and he got some easy buckets and boosted his confidence

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Game 7 will be close imo

[weebo]

Proud of these guys. Didn't think they had it in them. :flag:

:lol

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Fans were lit tonight. Really good game. Our two Star players did their thing and our role players improved.

On TV they seemed so lacklustre which was word for a playoff game but glad to hear they were amped in person :tu

[BackHome]

Finally Pop learned not to pull starters unless your up by 16 and 3 minutes to go! And who said you can’t teach and old dog new tricks.

[ShutUp SayItAgain!]

Stop the threes let their big go off

This

[Slippy]

Holy shit! Just heard Denver had 72 points in the paint, and 28 second chance points. The Spurs HAVE to slow that shit down on the road. If the refs job Poeltl with the whistles again, they're screwed.

Yap yet they won. Spurs gotta feel good that there's some adjustment to be made .

Manning up on Torri Craig certainly helps. I know Rudy stepped on offense but his defense was a glaring weakness.

Patty bringing the ball up and running plays for himself when you got derrick on the floor simply shouldn't happen. Could go on . Hopefully pop figures this out. Duck basics this game 7

[John B]

Momentum shifted. I would’ve preferred 30 points beating but 18 pts should give our guys enough confidence that we can this guy. Close-out on 3’s. Hard foul inside. Catch and drive. Get physical. We got this

[sasaint]

Yeah, but 28 second chance points.

NBA prohibits putting a body on the opponent for a rebound.

Actually, I saw us lose possessions by fumbling a lot of contested rebounds. Inability to grab 'em and secure 'em.

[Capt Bringdown]

Gay's play was critical, he looked like a different person out there tonight.

[Fusternino]

Reading the Nuggets forum, lot of raging about Poeltl's "moving screens" or whatever.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Reading the Nuggets forum, lot of raging about Poeltl's "moving screens" or whatever.

Let's talk about Millsaps attempt at a career ending undercut on LA.

[BillMc]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPMgpEep-ag

[Manong Ginobili]

Great win, really impressed with the defense and hustle plays by Poeltl, plus Gay seemed to get his points within the flow of the offense, and he hustled for rebounds and played good defense. I think Refs will call light fouls on Poeltl and White (again) in Game 7, which will amp up the Denver home crowd

[BSfromTX]

I saw about 30% of the game, but it seemed the nuggets got the calls in the 3rd and 4th. We couldn’t hardly look at them

my bullets:

- white is solid
-Poetl is damn good
- Forbes earns his money ( maybe doesn’t deserve so much PT, but earns his dough)
- LA AND DD? Blah... DD got points in the cushion
- gay is worth keeping
- hats off to Patty, he worked his butt off


maybe I’m off, but just my limited observation

[Arcadian]

When is the last time the Spurs won a game 7 on the road?

Last game 7 win was 2014 vs. Dallas, but that was at home.

[kaji157]

Great win, now we have a puncher's chance.

[kaji157]

I think it was against Paul and West's New Orleans 2008, Manu came up big that game. So did Bowen.
This series has some things that reminds me of those.

[Arcadian]

Damn, so it's been 11 years. It's time for it to happen again.

[BSfromTX]

It rests completely on DeRozan and LMA. They just need a little more swagger tbh

[Spurs 4 The Win]

I think it was against Paul and West's New Orleans 2008, Manu came up big that game. So did Bowen.
This series has some things that reminds me of those.

I still remember Janero fucking Pargo going nuts in the 4th quarter and hitting a bunch of 3's to get them back in it and then Tony iced it with like 30 seconds left.

lma + ddr +rg = 70 pts

When is the last time the Spurs won a game 7 on the road?

Last game 7 win was 2014 vs. Dallas, but that was at home.

2008 Pelicans

was that the game when the Spurs slept in a broken plane in NO, then flew to play LAL the next night?

Yeah, total BS. And when Brent Barry got fouled (elbowed in the head by dickhead Fisher) shooting a 3 down by 2 in Game 4. That series was highway robbery.

shorter rotation ... but it was the shot making that gave them the win ... shall they continue to let jokic score and avoid three point attempts?

The last time the Spurs played a game 7 in the first round was 2014 when we won the championship.

The last time we were set to play a Blazers team that just knocked off a team with a game winning 3 by Damian Lillard was in 2014 when we won the championship.

Means nothing but interesting nonetheless

Tremendous win by the Spurs

One thing I will say is, the Spurs need to utilize Aldridge more in pick and rolls. There were several times in this game when he set a pick, rolled to the basket wide open, and didn't get the ball. Instead, a guard jacked up a midrange shot. Luckily it was a good shooting night, but that won't always be the case. Either way, it's important to feed your best player and keep him in rhythm. If he goes several minutes without touching the ball, that's not good

Aldridge has good hands and can score in a variety of ways on pick and rolls. He should be getting the same looks as Jokic does from his teammates.
