[GAustex]

Go Spurs
Fuck poop

[timtonymanu]

Would be nice to see a Magic win but unfortunately I see the spurs winning.

[Chomag]

I know it's wishful thinking but I hope to see White and Murray share the Floor more but yeah Pop....

[Strategic]

Memphis slide making it hard on Spurs tankers.

[Chomag]

Wtf was that Lyles?

[Chomag]

Forbes getting lost in D but no surprise

[Strategic]

Lyles looking like my fat buddy on that drive

[talkspurs]

I dont think it counted but did forbes block the shot on that drive?

[Strategic]

Let’s see if Pop can screw it up

[ace3g]

Maybe Luka gets minutes now depending on severity of Poeltl's injury.

[Ron Swanson]

Jesus, Rudy.

[GAustex]

Spurs the worst fast break team

[Darius Bieber]

Not really fair for the Magic... have a back to back series at Minnesota and then today in San Antonio..

[Chomag]

LW back in the doghouse?

[GAustex]

Orlando must be tired or bad or both if they make the Spurs looks this good

[Strategic]

Rudy Gay = fools gold

[ZeusWillJudge]

Orlando must be tired or bad or both if they make the Spurs looks this good


Wait for it...

[Darius Bieber]

Orlando must be tired or bad or both if they make the Spurs looks this good

They played last night in Minnesota..

[DJR210]

Lonnie wants to be a Laker

[spurs1990]

Orlando is d league awful. Lyles, Eubanks. Seriously ?

[GAustex]

Rudy walking around like he got broke glass in his shoes.
14 running around w/o a clue. Lonnie does not appear to care.
Shrug

[Tung]

​GO SPURS GO
Would be nice to see a Magic win but unfortunately I see the spurs winning.

[ace3g]

Eubanks dunk!!

[said7]

Eubanks defensive help and his movement on offense is encouraging.

[GAustex]

“PG” dribbles ob

[Chomag]

Yep again Pop's refusal to play white and Murray together...What other coach in the NBA refuses to play his best players together?

[Leetonidas]

Old man screaming at Lonnie

[Gorepopovich]

Oh, Lonnie...

[Ron Swanson]

Poeltl out for the game.

[Chomag]

Don't worry sniffers LW won't be on the team long, he is bouncing the moment he gets a chance.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Orlando must be tired or bad or both if they make the Spurs looks this good


LOL. Wait for it...

[Chomag]

No lead is safe as long as Pop is coaching lol

[timtonymanu]

Come on Magic!

[ZeusWillJudge]

Forbes is so deadly off the dribble.

[Chomag]

Thankfully the Magic are pretty much as bad a team as us

[Chomag]

They are making the playoffs :lol true

[GAustex]

Don't worry sniffers LW won't be on the team long, he is bouncing the moment he gets a chance.
Asshole poop gonna run another young talent off while he licks the taint of forms

[Darius Bieber]

Grizz whoopin on the Lakers

[tholdren]

Lol hairdo fans

[Darius Bieber]

Dumbass Forbes

[BillMc]

Missed the show so far. What's the story of this game?

[GAustex]

The lack of emotion; competitive fire is appalling.
Kind of too bad

[tholdren]

Eubanks better than hairdo

[Degoat]

Uncle Drew doing work! Lol people gotta be more patient with Lonnie, Dejounte sucked his second year too

[spurs1990]

Mr Eubanks I do apologize for my earlier snarly post

[GAustex]

Seems like no one cares about trying the utmost

[tholdren]

Just look at the players on the court and really think.. .. this is what the nba has come to. This is city league ymca stuff. Hilarious.

[spurs1990]

Missed the show so far. What's the story of this game?

Nothing of note other than Poeltl left early with a bruise and Eubanks filling in more than adequately. There was nice Rudy to Murray lob drawn play out of a timeout

[BillMc]

Our young core really needs someone to break out and be truly good.

Man, I had high hope for White. Now it seems like his ceiling is a functional NBA backup. Still not sure what to make of Lonnie, and it seems DJ and Jakob both should be better than they are by now. Sigh.

[BillMc]

Nothing of note other than Poeltl left early with a bruise and Eubanks filling in more than adequately. There was nice Rudy to Murray lob drawn play out of a timeout

Thanks bro!:bobo

[BillMc]

All I want is a big enough lead to see some KJ and Luka.

[ZeusWillJudge]

What a great feed by White!! Got Patty wide open in the corner.

[Chomag]

It's criminal how little playing time White gets.

[Ron Swanson]

Gordon :lol

[timtonymanu]

Grizzlies win at least

[GAustex]

At this point why even play Beli?

[sasaint]

Missed the show so far. What's the story of this game?

Dumbmar started out with 4 assists on our first 5 buckets and has been trash since. Rudy has points, but making some dumb plays.

[spurs1990]

Lonnie my man. A regular layup. Have you heard of this

[Leetonidas]

:lmao

[GAustex]

Poop’s Spurs

[boutons_deux]

yet another bad road team comes into ATT and beats the Spurs

[ace3g]

#FalseHope

[sasaint]

We were toast when Poodle went out.

[tbdog]

Mamba three looks better than Beli :clap

[ZeusWillJudge]

Orlando must be tired or bad or both if they make the Spurs looks this good

Wait for it... :lol

[spurs1990]

How is this happening. They were in firm control from minute one. G league Orlando

[Chomag]

This midget line up. Pop is cute

[GAustex]

Wait for it... :lol
It’s like you can see the future

[tholdren]

This midget line up. Pop is cute
Get over it. Hairdo is awful

[timtonymanu]

How is this happening. They were in firm control from minute one. G league Orlando

You say that like our own team isn’t G league level also

[timtonymanu]

Let’s go Magic!!!!

[BillMc]

Dumbmar started out with 4 assists on our first 5 buckets and has been trash since. Rudy has points, but making some dumb plays.

Thanks man. :flag:

[Darius Bieber]

WHY PUT FORBES IN WHAT THE FUCK

[Chomag]

Forbes checking in too stop this Spurs run

[ZeusWillJudge]

Forbes checking in too stop this Spurs run

:lol

[Barfunk]

Spurs cough up another big lead, smh........

[tholdren]

Fultz one of the worst nba player of all time. Better than hairdo. Sad

[Barfunk]

Pop enjoys doing the opposite of what everyone wants these days, and that is winning.

[tholdren]

Forbes the man. Lonnie not the man

[ZeusWillJudge]

Lyles better get an A tonight.

[GAustex]

DDR def got fouled

[Chomag]

Bad no call

[timtonymanu]

Come on Pop. Close with Beli also

[Rito3d30]

it's amazing to watch
:lol

[sasaint]

I smell a Dumbmar meltdown incoming.

[BillMc]

Lonnie is a great athlete, great human being, meh basketball player (by NBA standards)

[sasaint]

Uh-oh it's Dumbmar time.

[spurs1990]

I swear you lose here you can kiss the 7th seed goodbye. They're on a b2b too

[sasaint]

I swear you lose here you can kiss the 7th seed goodbye. They're on a b2b too

7th seed. :lmao

[ZeusWillJudge]

Wow. White fighting off Vuc and then draws the charge. Nice.

[Chomag]

Forbes "the closer" in

[Degoat]

Sparty!!!

[tholdren]

HE SATE DJ FOR HIM LOL

Lol you idiot. Forbes just carried the spurs to victory. Stop posting

[timtonymanu]

Of course, let Forms be the one to give this team an unnecessary win smh

[spurs1990]

Forbes buys himself more time

[tholdren]

Of course, let Forms be the one to give this team an unnecessary win smh

Yokun mad Lonnie didn't do anything for the 58th time?

[JPB]

Ready for the missed FTs?

[tholdren]

Lol murray

[Chomag]

What was Dumbar doing? Lol

[sasaint]

Great... Dumbmar to the line.

[sasaint]

Great... Dumbmar to the line.

Glad I was wrong! :lol

[tholdren]

Murray the pg who cant finish games bc he cant dribble or make plays

[ZeusWillJudge]

Lyles is leading the team in scoring on 61.5% shooting, and Pop subs him out for Mills.

[Chomag]

Lmao this team....struggles to even get the ball into play

[ZeusWillJudge]

I told my wife "They're gonna screw up the inbounds". Two timeouts so far to prevent 5 second violations. We'll see.

[JPB]

Easy win tbh

[sasaint]

Crazy

[Chomag]

Wtf forbes!!!! All you had to do was hold on to the damn ball!!!

[GAustex]

That is so funny
What bunch of fuckups

[ZeusWillJudge]

I told my wife "They're gonna screw up the inbounds". Two timeouts so far to prevent 5 second violations. We'll see.


:lol They did and they got lucky on the other end. What a fucking joke.

[boutons_deux]

spurs win by a missed layup

[tbdog]

Wtf forbes!!!! All you had to do was good the damn ball!!!

That was White's mistake.

[BillMc]

Victory!:clap

[Darius Bieber]

Almost lost to a team that came into town at 3AM this morning.

[tholdren]

Lol great game for plus minus dummies.

[GAustex]

YMCA league spurs lead by the great poop

[tholdren]

Almost lost to a team that came into town at 3AM this morning.

You aren't smart.

[Gorepopovich]

Ugly as hell.

[tholdren]

Murray had a great game +0

[GAustex]

That was White's mistake.
Please explain

[tholdren]

Gay had a great game -6

[sasaint]

Please explain

Forbes got the ball to White. It was White who put the ball on the floor in traffic.

[timtonymanu]

Thank God the Grizzlies won. Just what this team needs, more Brent Forms playing time

[tholdren]

Poeltl did nothing. +9

[tholdren]

Thank God the Grizzlies won. Just what this team needs, more Brent Forms playing time

Hes better than hairdo

[KimmyGib]

Dreubanks :tu

[tholdren]

Dreubanks :tu

[tholdren]

Eubanks and patty same plus minus....

[jjktkk]

POOP is gonna CLOSE with BRYN
Of course, let Forms be the one to give this team an unnecessary win smh
WHY PUT FORBES IN WHAT THE FUCK
Forbes "the closer" inST game thread. :lol

[GAustex]

I think it was shitty coaching throwing it to a known panic stricken ball handler in a position to immediately be doubled.
He panicked rather than hold the ball to be fouled or to find a more open team mate.
Poor coaching by a poor coach and bad execution by someone who does not belong in the nba

[RC_Drunkford]

Another great Gregg Flopovich out of bounds play. They always result into a turnover. He took 2 time outs to find a way to lose the game and still didn’t manage to do so.

[tbdog]

Actually Forbes did the right thing. He had one foot going out and got a clean pass to White. White just needed to hold the ball but he put the ball down in traffic and got it stolen

[timtonymanu]

Hes better than hairdo

Shut up faggot. You’re more obsessed with Lonnie than most on here lol

[Darius Bieber]

Shut up faggot. You’re more obsessed with Lonnie than most on here lol

For real, dude’s barely 21 and he’s nailing on him.

[Harry Callahan]

This team is so boring and mediocre now. You just know the team will make stupid mistakes in crunch time. It takes a fluke / act of God to even win a game by a point.

This team is a terrible basketball product. They just are.

[FkLA]

Every single out of timeout play is for either his new pet Brent or his OG pet Wombat. Seriously, just pay attention to it next game. I'm surprised opposing teams haven't scouted that out by now.

I just knew as soon as I saw Brent check in for that last offensive possession that Pop was going to do everything in his power to get him the ball.

[Spurtacular]

Highlights didn't show it. Which Spur choked on the two free throws at the end?

[tholdren]

Shut up faggot. You’re more obsessed with Lonnie than most on here lol
Awwww you mad everyone outplayed hairdo? So sad

[Chomag]

ST game thread. :lolheh, true but at least we are here unlike allot of fair weather fans here apparently. TBH

[boutons_deux]

ORL wins last 3 qtrs, lose game

[FkLA]

Also, did I hear Bill right about another Express News story about how hard Brent works? It's like they're trying to spread propaganda that this g-leaguer deserves to start because he works hard. Shit's not working. I don't care what the fuck he does in the gym, he's still not good enough.

Give me $3 milion and I'll work really hard in the gym and suck on the court too.

[FkLA]

Highlights didn't show it. Which Spur choked on the two free throws at the end?

Spurs turned it over, Fournier missed a point blank layup in transition, then there was a scramble for the rebound and time ran out.

[GAustex]

Team needs new blood. Got to rid IMO DDR or both him and LMA. It’s stale. Even the young ones are shunted.

[Darius Bieber]

Highlights didn't show it. Which Spur choked on the two free throws at the end?

Yeah, no FTs.. we weren’t in the bonus.

[timtonymanu]

Awwww you mad everyone outplayed hairdo? So sad

I don’t give a shit you autistic fuck.

[Spurtacular]

Spurs turned it over, Fournier missed a point blank layup in transition, then there was a scramble for the rebound and time ran out.

Yup. He went through Mills like he wasn't there. If Gregg isn't trying to tank, he is an awful coach.

[talkspurs]

Hes better than hairdo

Theres time where I wonder if this guy is Pop. His love affair with Forbs is on the same level. He also is pretty high on marco.

[Spurtacular]

I don’t give a shit you autistic fuck.

Trollden likes targeting people who know Forbes/Lyles sucks / know IV is an exceptional talent.

[Prime BEEF]

The arena was pretty packed tonight. The crowd was into the game too. Fun game to be at.

[spurs10]

Victory!:clap Hell yeah! I was there and that last play was a heart stopper! The good guys escaped victoriously! :bobo

[spurs10]

[Ditty]

This team fucking sucks. I can’t wait for these losers to get their ass kicked soon again.

[ElNono]

Why are we even still trying to win games?

[BillMc]

Hell yeah! I was there and that last play was a heart stopper! The good guys escaped victoriously! :bobo

You must bring good luck to the team. We should raise a fund to send you to very game bro!

honestly what young MODERN player wants to play for this A hole?

Big body like drew with a mean streak, hitting that 3 efficiently ads MILLIONS to his BOTTOM line potentially if he develops and pans out

He's already proved he can score ten points in an NBA game and he has decent size and youth. He won't be here long. He'll be throwing in 3s and rebounding for an NBA team that wants to win in just a year or two. I wish him well.

Pop is such an antiquated faggot. Really time to hang it up.

I'll chip in if that includes hitting Flopovich in the head with a beer can

Here is the exact reason why Lonnie Walker plays timid, why White lost his confidence, why people constantly pass open 3s, why nobody knew Dedmon had a jump shot, etc., etc., etc.

[SpurPadre]

So I'm just catching up on the outcome of this game. Is it true Forbes tried his best to tank like we should only for Mills to win it with his defense? What in the actual fuck?

[Chomag]

Pop just can't seem to handle a player achieving something without his say so.

[Slippy]

Here is the exact reason why Lonnie Walker plays timid, why White lost his confidence, why people constantly pass open 3s, why nobody knew Dedmon had a jump shot, etc., etc., etc.

Lonnie going to be in shell soon. Pop went off on him for not getting up on Terence Ross enough in 2nd q. Iv seen Bryn literally give up defending but for Lord pop this was worse.

His defense didnt warrant Pops reaction if we playing equal.

[TimDunkem]

Pop just can't seem to handle a player achieving something without his say so.

Same reason he played God with Becky and clarified that first year assistant Tim Duncan was the next in line that night he was ejected even though that was literally never a thing until that moment.

[talkspurs]

He is a two way player, he is good as GONE

I dont think any team can sign him till the off season or he is release. That being said I would be surprise if he left after this year.

[UZER]

Rudy with his one good game every 20 games per par.

Last night might've been his last game as a Spur tbh. Sucks.

[UZER]

Meanwhile, Brent has started almost two full seasons without missing a game. You’re welcome.

:pop:

[tholdren]

Rudy with his one good game every 20 games per par.

Hes on the murray lonnie plan

[Arcadian]

:lol What a horrible victory. You blow a 16-point lead, turn it over on the last play, and get away with it...and you lose one of the few promising players on the roster. And now you're closer to finishing in 9th place, literally the worst place you can possibly finish.

:lol Spurs...faggots

[Slippy]

Patty and Bryn in the last 5 playing together again. FFS:pop:

[TimDunkem]

A team of fools, tbh.
