Game Thread: Spurs vs. Cavaliers - Dec. 12, 2019 @ 7:30pm CST

[timvp]

Nice little break but look forward to the Spurs getting back in action :tu

Spurs obviously need this win. No excuses.

There will be if they lose.


"Spurs were obviously rusty and need to tighten things up" - Bill, Sean, Bonner, etc.

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

:cry fire pop if lose :cry

:cry fire pop if win and ruin tank :cry

[RC_Drunkford]

must win tbh. Hopefully Pop has taught them something significant in practice and he plays Walker. Belinelli will certainly get minutes after that game winner against the Kings

[emanueldavidginobili]

Keldon and Luka have been recalled from Austin.

[DPG21920]

CLE has mostly been blown out lately - this isn’t the Kings who are bad but have been playing well and giving a lot of teams trouble.

SA should win this one walking away.

[Joseph Kony]

Keldon and Luka have been recalled from Austin.

:wow

[BillMc]

Keldon and Luka have been recalled from Austin.

Would love a blowout that allows them to make their debuts.

[DPG21920]

Would love a blowout that allows them to make their debuts.

Spurs lose to Cavs, Luka plays the final 90 seconds. Post Game Pop: “Luka needs to play better”

[Mugen]

Cavs moneyline at +500....

[BillMc]

Spurs by 12

[Larry O]

In Spurs family news: Sad day for the Spurs family as Coach Pop announces during his pregame press that Charline Mccombs, wife of one time owner, Red Mccombs, passed away today. Condolences to the Mccombs family, as well as the Spurs family and the San Antonio community. RIP Charline.

[slick'81]

These cavs are god awful,finalLy a team sa can match up against

[ZeusWillJudge]

Keldon and Luka have been recalled from Austin.


I wish I thought that meant something.

[Degoat]

Not saying the rockets are a juggernaut or anything but they only beat the cavs by 6 the other day

[slick'81]

Not saying the rockets are a juggernaut or anything but they only beat the cavs by 6 the other day


Good, cavs will be tired af tonight

[BillMc]

My headphone jack isn't working, so my neighbors are going to have to listen to me watch the game at 3:30 AM here.

Screw them. Go Spurs Go!

[timtonymanu]

I’m still not convinced the Spurs can handle this team easily. It had to take a Patty 3 last year (on Manu’s jersey night, no less) to beat the Cavs. I am confident they can win this but we will see. Spurs by 5 imo.

[slick'81]

Spurs by 15

[BillMc]

Who is inactive tonight?

[DMC]

KLove will have a career night.

[Spurs Brazil]

Why Timmy is not on the bench?

[BillMc]

Why Timmy is not on the bench?

I pray to God in the lockerroom suiting up

[tholdren]

Gay loss means spurs win

[timvp]

Murray and White playing together :hungry:




For two seconds ...

[timvp]

Jakob doesn't double when Love posted on Mills?

Wow, k.

[Robz4000]

Love going for 50 tonight.

[NASpurs]

Jakob doesn't double when Love posted on Mills?

Wow, k.

I guess they didn't teach bball IQ during the six days off.

[Robz4000]

:lmao

[Shakril]

I guess they didn't teach bball IQ during the six days off.

Whole team is out of rhythm. I hope they just need one quarter to get back into game-mode.

[tholdren]

The nba is so bad

[emanueldavidginobili]

Lonnie thank god

[GB20]

Why Timmy is not on the bench?

He is interviewing for the New York Knicks job.

[timvp]

Spurs are obviously rusty and need to tighten things up.






SMH.

[timtonymanu]

:lol like I figured. These guys are gonna dig themselves in another hole early and make this a struggle when they should be beating these guys easily. Still time to turn it around but its more of the same stuff we’ve been seeing all year.

[timtonymanu]

I guess they didn't teach bball IQ during the six days off.

:lol Sean
:lol reddit type of takes
:cry “These guys just need practice.”

[timvp]

Please, Lonnie, wake this team up.

Just for you, Bill.

[Robz4000]

Spurs making the 2019 Cavs look like the 2016 Cavs.

[Robz4000]

:lmao holy shit Murray

[ZeusWillJudge]

:lol like I figured. These guys are gonna dig themselves in another hole early and make this a struggle when they should be beating these guys easily. Still time to turn it around but its more of the same stuff we’ve been seeing all year.


They needed to get behind by a little more, so Sean and Bill could talk about how they have closed the gap. I am so sick of hearing that.

[timtonymanu]

rofl where’s my edgelord friend Mugen at with his “I hate this fucking team,” post.

[Leetonidas]

Yep. Same shitty team as always

[tholdren]

Murray has the iq of a rock

[timvp]

Nice first quarter, tnbh.

[RD2191]

:lmao spurms

[timvp]

Just for you, Bill.

:danceclubWell played.

[tholdren]

:lmao holy shit Murray

His only skill is getting the ball into a fast break. But ironically he cant run a fast break

[Shakril]

I give Cleveland credit. They are attacking Spurs guards witch are weak on defense and try to avoid poeltl in the paint. In other words, exploiting weakness and blocking the strenghts of Spurs defense.

[timtonymanu]

Let’s go Lonnie!

[timtonymanu]

Aldridge has the ability to make me fall asleep watching his energy out there sometimes

[objective]

Is this game really a 'no excuses' game?

What if the only way to teach Murray and White to play together is a season full of losses while being kept apart on low minutes, showing them how important it is that when they do play together next year, they compete and play well.

Wouldn't that be worth losing this game?

[212094ever]

No playmakers out there

[poopbox]

LMA is such a bum...can't even score on Henson

[ElNono]

Let's keep going to LMA so we can lose this game quicker

[tholdren]

Murray is so bad.

[timtonymanu]

Ma Touches has more energy collecting his paychecks than contributing in a basketball game

[TimDunkem]

This lineup sucks.

[Robz4000]

:lol I hate this team

[KDKSpurs24]

I don’t want LMA on the team anymore..

[timvp]

Dellavedova trying to convince the refs Forbes was in the jumpball :lmao

[UZER]

More Bryn Forbes. *sigh*

God I can’t wait for Pop to leave.

[poopbox]

Lonnie out here playing with a bunch of sad old men and the village idiot in forbes

[tholdren]

Gay is just as BAD.... lol

And murray is worse.

[timvp]

Did Bill Land call Walker "El Cuatro"?

[KDKSpurs24]

Gay is just as BAD.... lol
He can go too!

[r0drig0lac]

Aldridge is a fucking loser

[NASpurs]

Did Bill Land call Walker "El Cuatro"?

Free Quattro

[Shakril]

They are shooting only 37,9 percent, it can only get better.

[KDKSpurs24]

Was Becky just telling Lonnie “Every time!” As in push it with his speed every time? I think so. She may be the one who’s been vouching for Lonnie then.

[poopbox]

Forbes and Marco in the game :cry

[timtonymanu]

Lonnie is the only one showing up, but yeah let’s take him out and make the deficit even bigger with Beli. :lol Pop

[SpurSpike]

Lonnie is the only one showing up, but yeah let’s take him out and make the deficit even bigger with Beli. :lol Pop

[timtonymanu]

Was Becky just telling Lonnie “Every time!” As in push it with his speed every time? I think so. She may be the one who’s been vouching for Lonnie then.

Probably why he got benched just now, can’t show up the “genius” coach

[TimDunkem]

Why does Bryn feel like he can freelance on D?

Because he knows there is nothing he can do to lose playing time.

[timvp]

DeRozan, Belinelli and Forbes? What could go wrong?

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Really tough watching these spurs. Mills Belinelli derozan Forbes

[KDKSpurs24]

Probably why he got benched just now, can’t show up the “genius” coach
Well he got benched because it was his time in the rotation to come out. DeRozan was already at the scorers table but I do agree that he needs more minutes and Pop has to acknowledge that soon.

[RC_Drunkford]

Pop really did some work with this team in these practice sessions. The offense is so much better now

[timtonymanu]

Spurs getting killed by the 3 pointer

[KDKSpurs24]

Pop is forcing Marco’s minutes

[sasaint]

Sexton with the statue pose after his 3.

[RC_Drunkford]

Probably why he got benched just now, can’t show up the “genius” coach

:pop: "It wouldn't be fair to Marco"

[RC_Drunkford]

Mills has left his man open for 4 3-pointers now

[TimDunkem]

Sexton already knows he can catch our guys sleeping on D every time.

[james evans]

2 things. When Lonnie gets it going, popovich sits him down and we can't defend a 3 pointer for shit

[Leetonidas]

Same old shit. Spurs dribbling for 20 seconds to get a bad shot off while the other team trots down and nails triple after triple. :pctoss

[KDKSpurs24]

Did Marco just allow that wide open 3? I looked away for a second.. if so Pop just put his hands on his hand in disgust but won’t bench Marco??

[SPURt]

Same old shit. Spurs dribbling for 20 seconds to get a bad shot off while the other team trots down and nails triple after triple. :pctoss
Yep. This is gross.

[sasaint]

Spurs getting killed by the 3 pointer

6 days off didn't really change much there.

[RC_Drunkford]

tHe OfFeNsE iS nOt ThE iSsUe WiTh ThIs TeAm

[objective]

With Marco,. look on the bright side: he'll probably be cut from this lottery team in February so he can sign with a contender.

On the downside, it'll just be more minutes for Forbes and DeMarre.

[timtonymanu]

Lol @ the first page posts in this thread. It’s like you guys haven’t been watching the team this whole year. There’s no such thing as easy matchups or Spurs should blow this team out. They’ve had 1, maybe 2 convincing wins this year. The rest is either a loss or having to dig themselves out of a hole to win against some shitty matchup. Lol if this team is standing pat again another year

[NASpurs]

:lol wtf were they doing during the time off?

[sasaint]

With Marco,. look on the bright side: he'll probably be cut from this lottery team in February so he can sign with a contender.

DeMarre who?

[NASpurs]

Pop probably forced them to watch the impeachment hearings.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Culture stuff.

[sasaint]

:lol wtf were they doing during the time off?

Some were drinking coffee. Some were drinking wine.

[212094ever]

:lmao :lmao :lmao

[sasaint]

Nice end to the half!

[BillMc]

Well that went well.

[spurs1990]

popovich has to step down

[timvp]

I love this lovely team!

[NASpurs]

They looked like complete shit coming off training camp too so it's not like I was expecting a miracle with a week off. Oh well, back to ignoring this team. If they don't care, I don't care.

[KDKSpurs24]

Did y’all just see the lack of effort on the rebounds at the end??????

[BillMc]

Pop probably forced them to watch the impeachment hearings.
:lol

[TimDunkem]

That might be the 100th time DeRozan has launched the ball in frustration this season.

[timtonymanu]

Edgelord and sniffers are both losing this season. No playoff spot cause the Spurs suck that bad and no high lottery pick cause Pop is actually still trying to make the playoffs lol.

[objective]

DeRozan has had a remarkable lack of fight and hustle on defense, even for him.

[BlackAndWhite]

Hard to say this, LMA is done

[CGD]

Just when I was concerned PATFO was going to look for kernels of optimism in the Rockets and Clippers wins, this game should remind them to keep the eye on the prize: the trade market.

[timtonymanu]

I’m still not convinced the Spurs can handle this team easily. It had to take a Patty 3 last year (on Manu’s jersey night, no less) to beat the Cavs. I am confident they can win this but we will see. Spurs by 5 imo.

I was being too generous with my last sentence, but how can anyone have not seen this coming? :lol

[sasaint]

Hard to say this, LMA is done

I don't think he is done - just totally checked out.

[NASpurs]

We know nothing's going to happen but December 15th is 3 days away :hungry:

[timtonymanu]

They looked like complete shit coming off training camp too so it's not like I was expecting a miracle with a week off. Oh well, back to ignoring this team. If they don't care, I don't care.

It helps to have low expectations. Thankfully there isn’t a Tim or Manu type on the roster to feel sorry for. All the vets are losers that deserve what they’re getting, tbh. It’s easy to not care as a fan.

[sasaint]

Just when I was concerned PATFO was going to look for kernels of optimism in the Rockets and Clippers wins, this game should remind them to keep the eye on the prize: the trade market.

PATFO does not see that as a prize, but admission of defeat. I want PATFO to go before any players go.

[timvp]

I am confident they can win this

Whoa, exhale for a second there sniffer.

[timtonymanu]

I would be fine with a 35 win team that heavily features Lonnie, Murray, White, Luka, KJ, Quindarry, Metu. Basically all the young kids. Trade away or bench the loser vets who suck out the energy every game. Time to accept the inevitable tank.

[sasaint]

This game makes it obvious to me that Pop has completely lost his players. He has got to go.

[boutons_deux]

What a god-awful half from lamarcus

[timtonymanu]

Whoa, exhale for a second there sniffer.

:lol :tu

[Leetonidas]

I would be fine with a 35 win team that heavily features Lonnie, Murray, White, Luka, KJ, Quindarry, Metu. Basically all the young kids. Trade away or bench the loser vets who suck out the energy every game. Time to accept the inevitable tank.

That's a 20 win team bro

[TimDunkem]

That's a 20 win team bro

Even better.

[sasaint]

That's a 20 win team bro

That's about what we are watching now.

[sananspursfan21]

Pitiful showing against a should be easy team. So much for that “rest” :lol

Young guys and a high draft pick? Sign me up.

Instead we're watching a team that might win 30 wins with these fucking boring losers.

We need to trade Murray tbh.

Murray is terrible

[sasaint]

Serious question: What does Pop think of Dijon? Signs him to a nice extension and then realizes he's a bust?

[TimDunkem]

Serious question: What does Pop think of Dijon? Signs him to a nice extension and then realizes he's a bust?

It was just another loyalty deal.

Also, in b4 the sniffers say, "a hIgH DrAFT pIcK CaNT bE CoNsiDerED a bUsT" after everyone claimed he was a lottery level talent for years.

[sasaint]

Dumbmar committing Ts after the half is over.

[timtonymanu]

No Jakob, Lyles, or Forbes?

We need to trade Murray tbh.

I’m done with Forbes. He’s part of that loser vet club as far as I’m concerned

[timtonymanu]

That's a 20 win team bro


Even better.

True

[tholdren]

White is worse on d than forbes

[MoSpur02]

How has Pop not chewed out Derozan for his little tantrums?

[Robz4000]

:vomit:

[sasaint]

It was just another loyalty deal.

Nah, his treatment of Dijon feels different than that.

[tholdren]

White is worse on d than forbes

[Robz4000]

How has Pop not chewed out Derozan for his little tantrums?

He doesn't wanna be an accessory to suicide.

[Leetonidas]

Forbes is so fucking shitty. Even worse than Beli getting minutes is this loser starting and playing 30mpg

[tholdren]

Forbes is so fucking shitty. Even worse than Beli getting minutes is this loser starting and playing 30mpg

His plus minus at the half states otherwise

[TimDunkem]

Nah, his treatment of Dijon feels different than that.

Honestly, there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to any of his decisions these days.

[timtonymanu]

Forbes is so fucking shitty. Even worse than Beli getting minutes is this loser starting and playing 30mpg

Calling him the modern day Gary Neal might be an insult to Neal as well. He’s like the modern day guard version of Austin Daye on the Spurs and he’s getting Danny Green type of minutes. :vomit:

[sasaint]

How has Pop not chewed out Derozan for his little tantrums?

Pop screwed himself when he brought in LMA who couldn't take Pop's tough coaching. He just doubled down with Dumbmar. He has no idea how to coach his soft "stars."

[tholdren]

White defense bad

[TimDunkem]

Garland and Sexton is already a better guard combo than Murray and White, tbqfh.

[tholdren]

Calling him the modern day Gary Neal might be an insult to Neal as well. He’s like the modern day guard version of Austin Daye on the Spurs and he’s getting Danny Green type of minutes. :vomit:

Better than murray and white sad

[SayTown]

Did Timmy already quit? If he did I don't blame him I'm sure he has a million better things he could be doing.

[timtonymanu]

Watching Aldridge and Derozan compete for biggest loser night in and night out is disgusting to see

[Leetonidas]

Fuck you derozan

[212094ever]

Low IQ

[tholdren]

Lol murray. I'm better

[james evans]

whomever made that thread about Poodle not being better than a 38 year old Gasol need to kill themself.

[sasaint]

White defense bad

What happened?! Is his regression in D symptomatic of his checking out on Pop/the cancerous atmosphere in the locker room?

[Robz4000]

Garland and Sexton is already a better guard combo than Murray and White, tbqfh.

I mean they both are lottery picks tbh.

[TimDunkem]

I mean they both are lottery picks tbh.

Emphasis on "already". They make these two look like bonafide scrubs. This matchup really highlights Murray's low IQ and skill in particular.

[timtonymanu]

I mean they both are lottery picks tbh.

While I like Murray and White, I don’t see star potential in either of them. If the Spurs can actually land a lottery pick in this supposedly guard heavy draft, it would be helpful if they find a guard with star potential and trade 1 of Murray/White for a legit SF type of player, imo.

[sasaint]

Garland and Sexton is already a better guard combo than Murray and White, tbqfh.

I thought Dijon/Derrick would be a very awkward combo, so that's no big surprise. But they are better than our guys individually. That's not too good.

[Shakril]

Some energy plays by poeltl and suddenly Spurs are back. But yeah he is just a mediocore player without worth. :spin

[Leetonidas]

Spurs have to give up more wide open threes than any other team

[sasaint]

There was no way LMA wasn't gonna force that shot! Lol! Typical.

[tholdren]

I dont understand why murray plays. He can barely dribble.

[Leetonidas]

Lololol

[UZER]

Garland and Sexton is already a better guard combo than Murray and White, tbqfh.

They look better because they play the modern game.

Pop has the Spurs young guards confused as fuck trying to play 90s ball, making them bury all their basketball instincts to stay inside the system box.

[SayTown]

Sexton reminds me of a young Tony Parker.

[212094ever]

Disgusting shit

[sasaint]

TRADE THEM!!!!

Pop needs to go first.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Is Pop still making Lonnie better by leaving him on the bench? I'm just thinking about how damn good he'll be when he finally gets to play. He'll have a sore ass, but he'll be good.

[Beartrucci]

What do ya know Sexton is 8-14 against us :lol

[tholdren]

Lolololololololoolololllool murray. What in the world

[timtonymanu]

Some energy plays by poeltl and suddenly Spurs are back. But yeah he is just a mediocore player without worth. :spin

It’s not like this a shared sentiment across the board. Really the biggest weaknesses are the 2 career loser stars we have, Murray and White’s inconsistencies and flaws, the defense of our veteran guards, and the biggest culprit is Pop and his senile coaching.

[MoSpur02]

Thompson yelling at his coach. :lmao. That franchise is a mess. His coach had every right to be upset with him. He was lazy on that last play.

[SpurPadre]

I could've sworn the Cavs were 5-19, NOT 19-5 which is what they look like on our court, after a month's rest.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

:lol Thompson was about to sprewell his coach tbh

[RC_Drunkford]

Is Pop still making Lonnie better by leaving him on the bench? I'm just thinking about how damn good he'll be when he finally gets to play. He'll have a sore ass, but he'll be good.

He'll be the best player in the world by the end of the season. I mean if sitting him 10 games made him that good imagine what sitting him for another 60 games will do for him

[timtonymanu]

:lol locking up the poor man Rondo to a 64 million contract. What star potential does he have that he hasn’t shown in the 3+ years he’s been here.

[TimDunkem]

I thought Dijon/Derrick would be a very awkward combo, so that's no big surprise. But they are better than our guys individually. That's not too good.

The decisions with the guards has confused me for a long time. Draft Murray over Brogdon, grab White, but double down on Mills, then the force-Bryn-into-the-league charity case project, and finally draft Lonnie but don't play him.

I don't even know what's going on anymore. It's all been very bizarre.

[BillMc]

I swear, given that he can't shoot outside, I'm always amazed how poor a finisher Murray is. Tony spoiled us all those years.

[timtonymanu]

Thompson yelling at his coach. :lmao. That franchise is a mess. His coach had every right to be upset with him. He was lazy on that last play.

Somehow we look worse than them though

[sasaint]

He'll be the best player in the world by the end of the season. I mean if sitting him 10 games made him that good imagine what sitting him for another 60 games will do for him

:lol

Sadly, Murray doesn't have a modern game.

[timvp]

Tristan Thompson mad he doesn't get the ball against Murray. Doesn't run back on defense. Beilein yells at him to run back. Murray throws it to the Cavs. Thompson gets a cherry-picking dunk. Thompson screams at Beilein to STFU. Beilein takes out Thompson. :lol




And that's on the team that is winning this game ...

Does a player EVER miss a shot when being guarded by Patty Mills?

[tholdren]

Rudy gay...

Does a player EVER miss a shot when being guarded by Patty Mills?

That was on gays terrible d that patty had to try and help on

[Leetonidas]

I could've sworn the Cavs were 5-19, NOT 19-5 which is what they look like on our court, after a month's rest.

Every team looks like they're 19-5 when playing SA :lol

And that's on the team that is winning this game ...

Murray is better than Thompson

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Rudy Gay is just flat out terrible. Worse than carmelo

[Leetonidas]

Fucking sad our vets LA, DD, and Gay can't even compete against a trash team full of scrubs and young players

[timtonymanu]

Really wish Kings could have made just 1 basket on that final possession last game. Instead, the spurs are stuck in between tank and playoff hopeful mode, ugh.

[cjw]

That was on gays terrible d that patty had to try and help on

Rudy Gay is just flat out terrible. Worse than carmelo

He over-rotates assuming guys won’t be there, and then leaves his guy wide open. How many open shots did he give up that quarter?

[BillMc]

We just don't have enough outside shooting for the modern (boring) game. If only we had a player like Davis Bertans.

[sasaint]

Bill and Sean reduced to cheering for Spurs' dunks.

[ElNono]

Tristan Thompson mad he doesn't get the ball against Murray. Doesn't run back on defense. Beilein yells at him to run back. Murray throws it to the Cavs. Thompson gets a cherry-picking dunk. Thompson screams at Beilein to STFU. Beilein takes out Thompson. :lol

And that's on the team that is winning this game ...

That's a real coach, tbh

[UZER]

Sadly, Murray doesn't have a modern game.

That’s fair. But he’s fast, quick, long, and can create havoc on D, and is a great rebounding guard.

To me, he’s a gazelle thats not allowed to play with guys that can run with him. He’s flanked by Patty and Forbes and Belli. Pop won’t play him with White. Can’t really blame him right now with a coach that is playing absolutely ridiculous lineups.

[timtonymanu]

Rudy Gay is just flat out terrible. Worse than carmelo

Was fine with Rudy when he was on a cheaper contract but of course leave it to PATFO to hand him an extension that pays him more than the last rime. Really really hated that contract we signed him too in the summer knowing that he’s already breaking down.

[timvp]

I love this lovely team.

[poopbox]

Gay and LMA are helpless out here against the cavs scrub...can't score on them and can't defend them

[Shakril]

The difference in this game is again the 3pt play: Cleveland is 11-30 35,5%; spurs 4 -13 30,8% -> thats the Ballgame

[tholdren]

Lol gay. The spurs used to be different. They were a fundamental team who could beat the low iq that was every other nba team. Now there is not even one nba team that makes correct plays regularly. Not one. One of the best teams has a single player shooting 50 times a game. NBA on last leg

[RC_Drunkford]

Can't wait for the DeRozan-Belinelli-Forbes line up to close out the 4th and keep the tank rolling

[tholdren]

That’s fair. But he’s fast, quick, long, and can create havoc on D, and is a great rebounding guard.

To me, he’s a gazelle thats not allowed to play with guys that can run with him. He’s flanked by Patty and Forbes and Belli. Pop won’t play him with White. Can’t really blame him right now with a coach that is playing absolutely ridiculous lineups.

He cant dribble pass or shoot. What do you want to see him do just run sprints all game?

[212094ever]

One of the dumbest teams in the league

[timvp]

Oh, cool, Marco.

[poopbox]

Pop about to put marco in :madrun

[UZER]

The difference in this game is again the 3pt play: Cleveland is 11-30 35,5%; spurs 4 -13 30,8% -> thats the Ballgame

“We’ve got Patty and Forbes. We got the threes covered. Oh and Bertans, fuck you.”

:pop:

[SpurPadre]

That's a real coach, tbh

A "real" coach who is 5-19 and ringless unlike Pop lol.

[tholdren]

He over-rotates assuming guys won’t be there, and then leaves his guy wide open. How many open shots did he give up that quarter?

It all started after he got the ball stolen from him then doubled dellavedova on the wing for no reason other than attempted revenge. 5pt swing by another low iq player

[SpurPadre]

“We’ve got Patty and Forbes. We got the threes covered. Oh and Bertans, fuck you.”

:pop:

You wouldn't be saying this about Bertans if that faggot Morris didn't fuck us over, tbh.

[r0drig0lac]

Walker is a monster

[tholdren]

You wouldn't be saying this about Bertans if that faggot Morris didn't fuck us over, tbh.

Or if murray could get into the paint. The downfall is lack of an attacking pg

[timtonymanu]

Guarantee if you switch Forbes with Lonnie in the starting lineup, it would make the team that much better.

But pecking order, fall in line, all that bullshit Pop philosophy

[poopbox]

Cavs coach must have saw marco at the scoreres table so he called timeout to get him in the game :spin

[ElNono]

Spurs making a run with LMA on the bench and Marco in there, as expected

[timtonymanu]

A "real" coach who is 5-19 and ringless unlike Pop lol.

Rings he got from the Admiral, the Big 3, and Nephew tbh

[timvp]

This lineup with White and Lonnie in the backcourt is actually pretty good :tu





Cue Pop to put in Forbes or Mills or slide DeRozan to center or some ish.

[BillMc]

When I play Sabbath we score more than they do. Just saying.

[KDKSpurs24]

Lonnie should start dunking the ball in that situation. He’s had a few of those this season. I think it would make future defenders have to think even more about defending him on a fast break

[RC_Drunkford]

Walker is a monster

:pop: but he's not Steph Curry. Bryn is Steph Curry

[tholdren]

Walker cant play half court offense. He's a better version of murray.

[UZER]

You wouldn't be saying this about Bertans if that faggot Morris didn't fuck us over, tbh.

Morris didn’t want to play for Pop. He was going to settle for the Spurs contract for the money. But the first chance to bail, he did.

Free agents don’t want to play for SA. This is well known. When they get here, they want to leave. This one left before even playing his a game.

Or play Murray and shut down the offense.

[ElNono]

Tristan Thompson is a NBA champ, tbh... he sent him to the tree of woe... respect

[Robz4000]

If he starts dunking the ball Pop will bench him for disrespecting the competition.

[SpurPadre]

Rings he got from the Admiral, the Big 3, and Nephew tbh

He still brought this lump of shit team to 7th seed for the past two years when this Cavs coach would've been fired within a couple months coaching those rosters.

[sasaint]

It all started after he got the ball stolen from him then doubled dellavedova on the wing for no reason other than attempted revenge. 5pt swing by another low iq player

yep, wounded pride.

[timvp]

Got damn, Lonnie.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Walker is a monster

It's because he was on the bench most of the game.

[r0drig0lac]

easy for loonie

We've always been the Florida of the NBA. It's where the old farts come for a last paycheck before taking them to the woodshed.

[timvp]

DeRozan and LMA have been terrible, wow.

[ElNono]

the fuck, challenge that

[ElNono]

Let's go DDR... carry carmelo Aldrige to the finish line

[jjktkk]

Rings he got from the Admiral, the Big 3, and Nephew tbh

Just like Phil Jackson got his rings from MJ, Shaq, and Kobe. Funny how that works.

[ElNono]

Give it to DeMar and clear out

[ZeusWillJudge]

:pop: "We need some three point shots. Davis go... where the fuck is Davis?"

[KDKSpurs24]

Hell of a move by DeRozan I must admit. I don’t know how he change directions in such a small space while going with a full head of steam

[timvp]

DeRozan waking up :tu

[tholdren]

Ddr best player on spurs. Highest iq on spurs. Not even close

[ElNono]

LMA might as well be Tristan Thompson without a ring... such a passive flaglot

[timtonymanu]

Just like Phil Jackson got his rings from MJ, Shaq, and Kobe. Funny how that works.

I don’t disagree with that. Even Kerr with the Warriors. Basically, every dynasty was carried by its star players, not the coach.

[ElNono]

smh LMA

[james evans]

Another game Lonnie is saving us.

[NASpurs]

Just like Phil Jackson got his rings from MJ, Shaq, and Kobe. Funny how that works.

And Tex Winter carrying his ass. Who gives a shit about Phi, he was always overrated. :lol

[poopbox]

Lamarcus is such a fucking moron...

Dude got to be the dumbest player in the nba...

NOBODY in the paint but he just keeps dancing around in their until he gets a 3 second call

[Ron Swanson]

White Walker
