Spurs with two changes to their injury report. Devin Vassell (sore left knee) has been upgraded from questionable to available for tonight's game in OKC. Keita Bates-Diop (upper respiratory infection) has been downgraded from available to out.

[poopbox]

Is Derozan back for this game ?

[ace3g]

Is Derozan back for this game ?

He is still out.

[KobesAchilles]

Even though the Thunder are winning games still, we need to pick up these easy games now while the schedule gets easier. Losing to the Wolves hurt. Losing to the Thunder does not help that playoff cause

[Robz4000]

Spurs are gonna get blown out imo.

[ace3g]

[Chinook]

Team's gonna have to find a way to survive KBD's absence. He might be their best PF.

I don't care what the Spurs' record is or that they won 2 games in LA. I expect OKC to beat them soundly without having White or Derozan.

[Sugus]

The Spurs are gonna win this game. Heard it here first, folks.

Let's hope for another strong outing from Lonnie, and for another one of the young guys taking notice that there's FGAs up for the taking. Would be a good Keldon revenge game, considering the Thunder are far from the best defense (though individual defenders like Dort could give him trouble).

[look_at_g_shred]

The spurs are going to win. You heard it here first. This ain't your past 3 years spurs.

[Darius Bieber]

:flag:

[John B]

Vassell activated is great news. Spurs need all the help. Spurs by 6.

[Mugen]

I wonder if Trey Lyles is getting 40+ mins tonight, probably still tired from getting 35+ on Sunday :lol

[Mugen]

Hopefully that Pokuvsevski kid doesn't see any playing time. Seeing that kid out there depresses me, makes me want to donate to Meals on Wheels or something tbh.

[mo7888]

Do they not have Whataburgers in okc?

[NASpurs]

Should bring him here to SA and put on the Tony Parker diet.

[RC_Drunkford]

I guess this means more Trey Lyles. OKC is 4-1 in their last 5 games, they ain't no push over for this Spurs team. Will be close

why are we always giving up the wide open corner 3? That's the one shot you don't want to give up

[Robz4000]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ErkuqsqXUAA9MXY?format=jpg&name=large

The Centerpiece

[EasyMoney]

Didn't know al horford still had that kind of energy left in him. Good drive for the dunk

[Leetonidas]

Murrays touch around the rim is so bad :lol

[YoungbuckMurray]

Offense looks just flat out ugly without Demar

[Kurgan]

Without Demar or Derrick to hold his hand, Murray is a cancer.

[mystargtr34]

Dejountes lizard lookin ass can’t hit shit around the rim.

[Leetonidas]

Lyles is worthless

[stephen jackson]

Why did lyles shoot three straight times

[TheGreatYacht]

I hate Lyles with a passion

[RC_Drunkford]

Trey useless out there chucking like he's Rudy Gay

[SPURt]

Bench Lyles damn

[YoungbuckMurray]

This is pathetic

[EasyMoney]

I've become disinterested in watching this team now that trey lyles is starting. Give me devin vassell or luka

[Robz4000]

Its ok guys, the Spurs are just out of gas!

[Beartrucci]

TF is this Lyles BS? Why is this allowed :lol

[RC_Drunkford]

Flopovich just doesn't get it that Lyles ain't doing anything productive out there

[r0drig0lac]

this defense sucks

[poopbox]

Pop yelling at Lonnie and Lonnie looking at him like :(

[Mugen]

WTF was that help, Lonnie? :lol

[EasyMoney]

And Lonnie just gives baszley the easy layup instead of going for a charge

[Leetonidas]

Seriously don't get why Pop is starting Lyles with Derozan out. Just give Vassell his minutes

[YoungbuckMurray]

Trash defense by both Rudy and walker, wow very uninspired effort. Looks like preseason effort

[TheGreatYacht]

Lyles being so aggresive has Poop written all over it :lol

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Offense has been disastrous without DDR. Has there been an offensive possession with more than a couple of passes?

[mystargtr34]

I mean to be fair if you take the two best players out of any teams lineup they’re going to be shitty, but this effort by the Spurs is just pathetic 😂

[Dex]

Totally blown rotation by Lonnie...both Gay and Pop yelling at him about it.

Lonnie seemed to be arguing that he was guarding his man in the corner, but that doesn't mean shit if the ball goes straight to the basket for a layup.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

:lol pop giving trey fucking lyles the green light

[r0drig0lac]

Pop giving freedom to Lyles to shoot like prime Dirk out there

[BillMc]

What the Hell is this?????

[YoungbuckMurray]

Totally blown rotation by Lonnie...both Gay and Pop yelling at him about it.

Lonnie seemed to be arguing that he was guarding his man in the corner, but that doesn't mean shit if the ball goes straight to the basket for a layup.

gay can yell at him all he wants but he got completely blown by with a pathetic defensive effort himself. He don’t have a leg to stand on

[TheGreatYacht]

Lmao down before Poeltl even came in? At least we'll see Tre Jones by the 3rd quarter...

[Sugus]

What a bullshit start to the game. Lonnie had 25 fucking points last game, and he's gone what, 3-4 possessions without literally touching the ball? Come the fuck on, Chucky Mills, pass the rock.....

What the fuck is Lyles attempting shit midranges for? Bullshit. Defensive effort? Bullshit. just.... shit

[BillMc]

How funny how things change...

Come back Demar soon, Patty can't keep us afloat alone. (Never thought I'd write those words! :spin)

[YoungbuckMurray]

Gay blown by yet again

[RC_Drunkford]

What the Hell is this?????

Spurs basketball

[Sugus]

Also, Lonnie should never be put on the other team's best player. He's learning, yes, but he's not a good man-to-man defender yet - why not put Keldon in to check SGA, given that he's the much better defender and also a bad off-ball defender? Just a wacky plan overall...

[r0drig0lac]

Mills carrying these scrubs

[r0drig0lac]

great move Loonie

[EasyMoney]

Jakob had a good second or 2 where he was in front of his man in the paint and didn't even recognize it

[RC_Drunkford]

Jakob had a good second or 2 where he was in front of his man in the paint and didn't even recognize it

he has those posessions every game but still has no clue how to score inside

[KDKSpurs24]

Rudy wants to take every single shot except for the WIDE open 3..

[Mugen]

I'd honestly just rather go small and give Tre some burn. OKC isn't big enough to justify Lyles getting minutes tbh.

[YoungbuckMurray]

Better 2nd half of the quarter but man just seems like no energy or anything from our guys

[Sugus]

Tied after a shit first quarter.... I'll take it. When is White coming back though? :depressed

[Sugus]

I'd honestly just rather go small and give Tre some burn. OKC isn't big enough to justify Lyles getting minutes tbh.

I'd say that even if the Spurs went small, Tre wouldn't see play. Pop seems to be giving him the "typical" rookie hard love, tbh, he probably won't play before the season is cancelled :lol

[RC_Drunkford]

Poodle with 2 fouls in 4 minutes

[Beartrucci]

:lol pop giving trey fucking lyles the green light

This really can't be stressed enough. Mind boggling. Like he's Kobe out there ignoring everyone :wtf

[EasyMoney]

Devin my goodness

[Beartrucci]

Devin almost on SC top 10 with that dunk attempt

[PhantomDashCam]

That Vassell dunk attempt...:wow

[Leetonidas]

I would have jizzed myself if Vassell made that dunk :wow

[YoungbuckMurray]

God our guys are getting blown by pretty easily

[GreekSpursfan]

We can't shoot for shit. Ugly game

[BillMc]

Poku already better than Luka

[Mugen]

Jak is so f'n ass to start the year. His best attribute right now is that he's literally not Drew Eubanks :lol

[MoSpur02]

These refs are absolute garbage

[r0drig0lac]

Poku already better than Luka

Spurs should have left the draft with Bazley and Keldon

[BillMc]

It amazes me Jakob made a big stink about wanting to be a starter

[poopbox]

Everyone on our team except Patty ignores Poeltl on offense

[TheGreatYacht]

Vassell needs all of Lyles' minutes

[Barfunk]

I can't believe my eyes, Pohdel with 3 straight good plays.

[YoungbuckMurray]

Vassell has been great defensively shot just not falling. Murray’s shot and touch has been horrible

[Mugen]

I just like having Devin out there. Shot isn't dropping but he makes positive stuff happen.

[Sugus]

It amazes me Jakob made a big stink about wanting to be a starter

Actually, the worst part about this is that the Spurs practically promised Poeltl to start at some point during the contract. There were talks about the Spurs FO telling Jakob that "LMA won't be here forever...." and the like :vomit:

[TheGreatYacht]

Poetoe :wow

[PhantomDashCam]

Dejounte better pull his head out... Need you buddy. Distribute, pick up the D if your shot not dropping.

[PhantomDashCam]

Wants to be a starter but hasn’t improved his game in 5 years

[AussieFanKurt]

Get Lyles off... shitcunt

[BillMc]

Damn.:hang

[Mugen]

How does Lyles go from doesn't sniff the court to leading the team in mins? :lol

[BillMc]

Wants to be a starter but hasn’t improved his game in 5 years
Yep.

[poopbox]

We just had two players run to that trash ass Poleski dude :lmao

How dumb can you be :lmao

[Mugen]

To be very clear, Jak looked just as shitty to start the season the last 2 years. Not defending his play but that's a fact.

What's indefensible is how absolutely soft he looks when he touches the ball and how he's actually gotten worse as a FT shooter smh

[r0drig0lac]

Devin playing very well

[Sugus]

I'll come out and say it: I was wrong on my pre-draft impression of my guy Daffy's boy Poku. My biggest concern about him, by far, was his weight/ability to stay on the floor at the NBA's level of physicality, and he doesn't seem to be having any problems on that end. I'd still rather have Vassell with the #11 pick, but Poku's probably in the best possible era for his game, skillset, and most of all, body. Soft as shit league is just the way he's favored to play tbh.

[r0drig0lac]

Loonie!!!

[TheGreatYacht]

Vassell getting so many minutes just confirms my theory that he didn't get hurt last game. Pop just forgot he was on the team and then lied his ass off to the vanilla Express news writers :lmao

[Mugen]

Devin just makes stuff happen.

Small sample size but I'm pretty sure that (outside of Derrick) hes got the highest BBIQ out of all the young guys. Not a high bar but he knows how to play winning ball tbh

[PhantomDashCam]

Lonnie on both ends. Yeah baby!

[Sugus]

Vassell getting so many minutes just confirms my theory that he didn't get hurt last game. Pop just forgot he was on the team and then lied his ass off to the vanilla Express news writers :lmao

He bumped knees............. Find better ways to trash Pop, tbh, it's not like there aren't any :lol

[poopbox]

We do a very bad job of knowing when a driving player is going to pass or shoot.

[james evans]

Nice lead going into the 3rd. You already know bs lineups are inevitable leading to a large run by the thunder in the 3rd.

[AussieFanKurt]

Solid quarter after shite start

[Leetonidas]

Devin just makes stuff happen.

Small sample size but I'm pretty sure that (outside of Derrick) hes got the highest BBIQ out of all the young guys. Not a high bar but he knows how to play winning ball tbh

Yup. He has defensive instincts that can't be taught

[Mugen]

I'll take a selfish low IQ play from Lonnie tbh

[GreekSpursfan]

None of our young guys has a consistent shooting touch. We need shooters and an athletic big. Can't win(meaning generally) with Patty being the only outside threat.

[TheGreatYacht]

He bumped knees............. Find better ways to trash Pop, tbh, it's not like there aren't any :lol
I saw the video last game thread of when it was believed he got "hurt".

Don't buy it at all. Vassell didn't even limp afterwards. Bumped knees don't keep you out entire halfs btw

Less Lyles in the 2nd quarter and boom we got the lead. Hope Pop doesn't start him for the 2nd half but he probably will. OKC doesn't have an inside presence, we are getting a lot of easy looks at the rim, especially Keldon and Lonnie. DJ has been off. Vassell is just such a positive impact player on both ends. I'd actually prefer for Pop to start him instead of Lyles

[Sugus]

I saw the video last game thread of when it was believed he got "hurt".

Don't buy it at all. Vassell didn't even limp afterwards. Bumped knees don't keep you out entire halfs btw

Damn, you sure convinced me tbh, Devin not limping immediately after getting hit but still being in pain is surely less likely than Pop literally forgetting he can play a player that he'd put on the court that very same game.... :lmao

Thanks Ace

[RC_Drunkford]

None of our young guys has a consistent shooting touch. We need shooters and an athletic big. Can't win(meaning generally) with Patty being the only outside threat.

they are inconsistent, but everybody except for Poeltl shoots 3s. So somebody will always be able to hit them. Also Lonnie is a really consistent shooter and White is still coming back. We should be fine as far as shooting goes, we're 5th in 3 PT% for a reason and we actually shoot a high volume now

[Dex]

Bench mob coming in again to save the day.

I know we are short-handed, but how hard is it to put together a starting lineup that can actually build a lead.

[hombre]

Lonnie making DeMar more expendable.

[YoungbuckMurray]

Vassell was awesome that half even tho he only had 2 points the kid was a huge spark. Needs mins in 2nd half

[RC_Drunkford]

Bench mob coming in again to save the day.

I know we are short-handed, but how hard is it to put together a starting lineup that can actually build a lead.

start Vassell instead of Lyles and there you have it

[RC_Drunkford]

Vassell's +/- tells you everything you need to know. Team high +18

[PhantomDashCam]

Lyles -6 might be missing a zero too. Ready to sell my stock on this guy. Shot looks soooo flat. Jakob influence no doubt. :lol

[John B]

Vassell was awesome that half even tho he only had 2 points the kid was a huge spark. Needs mins in 2nd half
He tried to be aggressive on offense. He needs to contribute around 8 points or more.

[ismael-robert]

Patty been explosive but wonder if Q would get any of his minutes for more defensive lineup

[RC_Drunkford]

Vassell just needs to be ran through screens more, like we did with Danny back in the day. He's the perfect offball shooting 2

[XDT76]

WE are struggling to score with DDR out, DJM seems to be hindered once he needs to carry more load to run the offense.

[PhantomDashCam]

Thunder dropped 37 on the Nets in the 3rd in Brooklyn last game. Spurs gotta come out with better effort than what they started the game with.

[rankingtear]

Bench mob coming in again to save the day.

I know we are short-handed, but how hard is it to put together a starting lineup that can actually build a lead.

Pretty hard, last I checked LA is the worst rim protecting starting center right now.

[TheGreatYacht]

Damn, you sure convinced me tbh, Devin not limping immediately after getting hit but still being in pain is surely less likely than Pop literally forgetting he can play a player that he'd put on the court that very same game.... :lmao
I'm not trying to convince a resident fluffer lmao

[poopbox]

Feels like that is the first shot lyles has made all year

[Mugen]

Lonnie's help D has been terrible tonight.

[XDT76]

What is it with Spurs big and dunking? Lyles layup in transition.....

[RD2191]

dj is garbage

[mo7888]

I'd like to see Pop put in Luka... I just want to see with my own eyes if he's less effective than Lyles is tonight...

[r0drig0lac]

Spurs has no respect from refs, a clear foul on Murray

[Robz4000]

Murray pulling a DePression with the meltdown to go with his shitty play.

[poopbox]

LMA looking like a dinosaur out here

[Robz4000]

:lmao Bazley undressed Lyles

[YoungbuckMurray]

Get vassell in this starting lineup sucks

[Mugen]

:lol Terrible

[Dex]

I hate Lyles so much.

[RD2191]

it's over

[RC_Drunkford]

Lyles getting cooked by Bazley :lol just expect Flopovich to keep starting him

[AussieFanKurt]

Fuck Lyles...

[Dex]

it's over

[LeBowen]

And here was I, thinking we could maybe enjoy one half without periods of awful execution on both ends.

[james evans]

We get lead and pop has Lyles in the lineup for the 3rd quarter collapse. Not shocked.

[PhantomDashCam]

How does Dort get that call??

[RD2191]

https://media1.giphy.com/media/CFmGuJUVaAjAs/giphy.gif
:lol

[r0drig0lac]

Lyles for 3 lol

[Mugen]

TR3Y LYL33333333$

[Mugen]

Trey just bought himself another 200ft of leash with that 3

[YoungbuckMurray]

Man OKC seems to ge a lot of foul calls

[NASpurs]

Lyles shitting on Spurstalk :wow

[TheGreatYacht]

Lyles taking a wet steamy one on yall tbh

[james evans]

Good shot Lyles you piece of shit!!!

[NASpurs]

Who told Lyles he's fucking Steph Curry? Wait I know the answer to that one.

[Robz4000]

Thunderefs alive and well.

[r0drig0lac]

pathetic defensive effort in this game, so strange, not to mention that okc players just throw themselves on the court and receive calls

[RD2191]

Thunderefs alive and well.
Is that KD getting food stamps out there?

[Chinook]

That last Walker foul looked like a clean block. The previous one might've been borderline, but it was a lot of ball too.

[Mugen]

F'n Rudy

[ace3g]

Spurs game flow

https://waterprogramming.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/sinewave.gif?w=386&h=290

[Dex]

Lyles shitting on Spurstalk :wow

18 minutes, 2/6 made field goals, and a -18 while giving up open lanes on defense.

Man, "shitting on SpursTalk" must have changed its standards

[TheGreatYacht]

Game needs some LMA post-ups tbh

[RC_Drunkford]

We made a run when Pop played Mills/Walker/Vassell/Gay/Aldridge in the 2nd quarter and almost no Lyles. We gave up the lead when he got back to the regular Trey Lyles starting line up. That’s literally the difference. Just play less Lyles and more Vassell and we win this

[NASpurs]

18 minutes, 2/6 made field goals, and a -18 while giving up open lanes on defense.

Man, "shitting on SpursTalk" must have changed its standards

Should had used blue font then.

[Robz4000]

:lol a second year no-name player is getting superstar calls on LMA

[AussieFanKurt]

Keldon is a mad cunt

[TheGreatYacht]

Thunder broadcast amazed that Keldon didn't get minutes last year :lol This is a trend among every opponent broadcast.

If only they knew he's only this good because of his time in Austin

[ace3g]

Patty's been in the league for 10 years and still has no idea how to run a 2 for 1 to end the qtr :lol

[CGD]

Rogby would be good on the Spurs. Raw but great motor

[TheGreatYacht]

This nerd on the Thunder is even worse than Poeltl. He's going to get an MJ payday one day.. smh

[Mugen]

Would be nice for Instagram to close strong this game tbh.

[AussieFanKurt]

This nerd on the Thunder is even worse than Poeltl. He's going to get an MJ payday one day.. smh

the skeleton lookin dude?

[Ocotillo]

Rogby would be good on the Spurs. Raw but great motor

I wanted that guy.

[NASpurs]

the skeleton lookin dude?

Jack Skellington?

[Leetonidas]

Oh my god Jakob got blocked by that Marfan kid :lmao

[AussieFanKurt]

:lol weak cunt poetl..... :lol

[poopbox]

Poeltl :lmao

[Mugen]

Jak got blocked by a 95 lb make a wish kid

[TheGreatYacht]

the skeleton lookin dude?
Yup :lmao

He's doubled his PPG tonight (2 LMFAOOO) thanks to a fluke bankshot. He's shooting 20% for the season

[r0drig0lac]

ps: Danny Green tonight 29/10/6/2/2 with 9/21 3-FGA

[Robz4000]

Spurs got a 10 pt lead. Cue up some food stamps for the Thunder and Pop with some poor game management.

[r0drig0lac]

Oh my god Jakob got blocked by that Marfan kid :lmao

:lol

[Robz4000]

ps: Danny Green tonight 29/10/6/2/2 with 9/21 3-FGA

LDN doing LDN things.

[jbspurs]

seems like Rudy doesn't like passing the ball to Vassell..

[NASpurs]

New season low by Poodle. Getting rejected by a dude who escaped a concentration camp.

[Mugen]

Spurs looking to try the chokejob earlier this game :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

Holy shit, Thunder broadcast just showed the Make a wish block in slowmo and Poeltl went up with his eyes closed :lmao

[Dex]

LDN doing LDN things.

21 three-point shots? That shit would make Harden blush

Speaking of which...the Rockets are getting pounded by the Lakers by 24 right now

[Robz4000]

God damn Poeltl's softness is making Splitter look like prime Bird.

[BillMc]

Poku is only 19. Gve him time to fill out and he has potential

[Sugus]

seems like Rudy doesn't like passing the ball

FTFY, tbh

[Robz4000]

21 three-point shots? That shit would make Harden blush

Just about all he takes tbh. Hit nine of them and filled out the stat sheet nicely, most importantly getting the W.

[AussieFanKurt]

JFC thunderup getting some calls tonight

[Robz4000]

Here are the refs on schedule.

[Mugen]

:lol RefKC

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

WTF these scrubs get all the calls hahah

[RC_Drunkford]

Thunderrefs showing up

[NASpurs]

JFC thunderup getting some calls tonight

Refs are a bunch of shitty cunts.

[poopbox]

Lonnie with the airball :lmao

[Dex]

Lonnie being Lonnie. Gets to the rim and then...passes out to Gay 20 feet away.

[NASpurs]

How full is the tank of gas tonight? Shit is looking bleak.

[AussieFanKurt]

No blood no foul for spurms

[EasyMoney]

Surprised that wasn't a foul on devin

[Mugen]

Somebody gotta score tbh. Looking like Fatty gonna have to hero ball them to a W tonight.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

God dam I don't think vesell ever finished a paint shot

[YoungbuckMurray]

God this team is frustrating. Just sleepwalk for stretches and let teams hang around

[td4mvp2k]

looking like we just ran out of gas again

[Robz4000]

How full is the tank of gas tonight? Shit is looking bleak.

Getting close to empty it looks like.

[ace3g]

See how long this lineup stays on court

[PhantomDashCam]

Take that contact Lonnie. Hope soon he crams it on their head.

[r0drig0lac]

Walker!!!

[AussieFanKurt]

LMA can't make lay ups anymore. Dude soft as butter

[Joseph Kony]

Thunder getting the benefit of some really soft ass foul calls

[TheGreatYacht]

Murray-Lonnie-Keldon-Vassell-Aldridge lineup should be the starting unit and hopefully Poop realizes it tonight

[jbspurs]

FTFY, tbh

so much more fun watching the team compete and actually try on defense versus that trash we had to watch from Forbes and Marco the last two years

[r0drig0lac]

it must be very frustrating for players to have the second game in three days being worked on by refs

[PhantomDashCam]

Lonnie b2b 20 point games, playing in the 4th both games. Exciting watching his progress.

[Sugus]

Lonnie b2b 20 point games, playing in the 4th both games. Exciting watching his progress.

My guy taking a fat, wet, big ol' dump on ST Expert Takes Analysts™ clamoring for him to be traded before fucking preseason even ended :lmao :lmao :lmao

Y'all gonna start owning up to it, or do I have to go fishing for the threads tbh?

[r0drig0lac]

clean block wtf

[CGD]

I wanted that guy.

Nuts that 80% of the OKC team will be free agents next summer. Rogby is on a non-guaranteed deal so well may be available

[RC_Drunkford]

That was clean block by Keldon

[AussieFanKurt]

Thunder announcers saying lots of contact on block... uhhhhhhh

[SPURt]

Keldon is really something

[GreekSpursfan]

We about to choke again aren't we

[r0drig0lac]

Murray with 3 smart plays in sequence

[TheGreatYacht]

We about to choke again aren't we
There's always a way with national team Patty

[Seventyniner]

Hill trying to baptize Keldon like Joseph did to Ibaka that one time. Same arena.

[CGD]

Man a Miles Turner type to sure up the D would be amazing. Our interior D blows

[r0drig0lac]

Mills!!!

[AussieFanKurt]

smart patrick

[AussieFanKurt]

Keldon is a big boy

[poopbox]

We really just ran the same pick and pop with LMA for the last 3rd of this game

[NASpurs]

Good help defense by Dejounte. My dude is everywhere in the paint.

[r0drig0lac]

wtf
