Game Thread: Spurs vs Rockets — Jan. 14, 2021 - 6:30pm CT

[8sy21vd]

Nice effort from Vassell on both ends. I like that set play to end the half even though he missed.

[TheGreatYacht]

Wood was my top target last free agency. Lol @ that guy saying Poeltl has upside :lmao 5 years in the league and has only gotten worse
Posters like him clap every signing or trade the Spurs do like seals. Good thing is there is a lot more knowledgeable posters here, one of the reasons I love this site. Reddit posters probably upsided Gasol's extension

[PhantomDashCam]

Spurs shot 38% in the first half and 5/18 on 3s. Last season that would be a double digit deficit. To be down only 3, shows we are learning to grind out other ways to win/compete. Huge progress.

I mean they're playing a team missing it's like 5 best players :lol

[r0drig0lac]

Murray!!!

[poopbox]

Spurs new HOTS putting the team on his back per par :wow

[RC_Drunkford]

we are playing a G-League team. Y'all need to stop sugercoating this performance

[PhantomDashCam]

I mean they're playing a team missing it's like 5 best players :lol

Fair point tbh. :lol

[FkLA]

we are playing a G-League team. Y'all need to stop sugercoating this performance

Coasting. They're about to blow it open in the second half, imho.

[NASpurs]

Start Vassell and play Lonnie off the bench. Lonnie would destroy other teams' benches and Vassell's defense would help a lot.

[r0drig0lac]

Keldon wow

[ace3g]

Keldon hammers it down!!!

[ace3g]

Dejounte underhand flip to lonnie for transition dunk

[ace3g]

Walker IV for III !!!

[LakerHater]

https://images2.imgbox.com/44/0a/58YzX88W_o.gif

[Mugen]

Imagine if our two centers didn't spend the offseason eating there way across the US.

[r0drig0lac]

it's over

[ace3g]

DeRozan lob to Keldon for the jam!!!

[Mugen]

I mean there's no way you keep Derozan if the young guys keep this up all year right? Add in probably the best all around one in Derrick and you gotta roll the dice on their continued development.

[TheGreatYacht]

To think that some fans havent watched a minute of this team smh

[r0drig0lac]

wtf this defense

[poopbox]

Another no name scrub finishing over LMA...

Monstars must have stole his and Poeltl powers with the same gun

[NASpurs]

Another no name scrub finishing over LMA...

Monstars must have stole his and Poeltl powers with the same gun

Getting Chris Boucher flashbacks all over again

[CGD]

LaMarcus is so checked out

[Degoat]

Spurs have an open roster spot right? Can we please sign Dedmon or find another big

[8sy21vd]

Hopefully LMA demands another trade along with Gay.

[NASpurs]

Spurs have an open roster spot right? Can we please sign Dedmon or find another big

Don't disrespect Drew Eubanks like that.

[r0drig0lac]

bring Allen and Collins, and we'll be fine

[r0drig0lac]

Keldon the scorer

[ace3g]

Tucker answers Keldon's 3...

[Mugen]

BIG BODY

[Mugen]

:lol Mills on Boogie there

[YoungbuckMurray]

God patty has been awful

[TheGreatYacht]

The wombat is out of control. Please trade him already

[Robz4000]

:lol this Spurs team gives up the cleanest looks I've ever seen from an NBA defense

[NASpurs]

I swear I heard Booty Gay

[Floyd Pacquiao]

DJ Triple Dub watch is on.

[spurraider21]

Spurs are worse at everything else defensively though.

Whataburger break tbh its like Covid never happened and the fans are still at the ATT Center :cry

[spurraider21]

FIBA Patty crashing back down to earth :lol
FIBA Patty back to 50 mills

[spurraider21]

dejounte with a hell of a finish to that quarter though

[heyheymymy]

Man keldon is unfuckingbelievable

[FkLA]

Relax, boys. We got this.

Ugly wins are still wins, tbh.

[Dex]

Patty, DDR, and LMA are all off so the Spurs are gonna have to score by committee.

Would also be nice if we could string together a few stops but apparently defense isn't allowed anymore

[Mugen]

I wonder if RC is going to wait until 12:02am this time with that bag for Patty :lol

[spurraider21]

aldridge playing like such dogshit puts a cap on how good this team can be

[duncan2k5]

We are in a dogfight with the worse roster in the nba... When are we gonna trade our 2 old "stars"?

[duncan2k5]

aldridge playing like such dogshit puts a cap on how good this team can be
Him and DeMar being on the team puts a cap on how good we can be...we have no identity with them

[spurraider21]

jesus christ patty

[Mugen]

aldridge playing like such dogshit puts a cap on how good this team can be

Just absolutely zero from the 5 spot tonight, putting Christian Wood in that AD/TD debate :lol

[LeBowen]

Patty is a shameless chucker.

All of the young guys are having good games, he doesn't care.

Pop deserves the L if Patty checks back in to close the game out.

[gilmor]

Sub Mills out for Walker, and immediately this team is different..

[Mugen]

Love that action from DV

[spurraider21]

i mean i get it if the ball swings around and finds patty open for 3, gotta shoot that. but he's just takin a screen and pulling up with 15 on the clock :lol

[LakerHater]

https://images2.imgbox.com/2e/d5/BfBEbOSU_o.gif

[Chomag]

Damn man , I have seen teams without any all stars be better, and we have 2 of them...

[NASpurs]

Poeltl you piece of shit

[Mugen]

Play fucking Keldon at center

[Leetonidas]

Why the fuck is Pop putting bricky ass Mills back. He doesn't have it tonight old man. Leave him on the bench

[PhantomDashCam]

Edit: DJ with 5x4 game. Kids have been solid.

[Chomag]

We got some great promising youth but then again we got a ton of dead weight trash

[8sy21vd]

This lineup with Keldon in for that bufoon Poetl is what I want to see. Mills, Gay and LMA can take the rest of the night off.

[spurraider21]

DJ with 5x5 game. Kids have been solid.
whats the 5th?

points, rebounds, assists, steals

[duncan2k5]

Damn man , I have seen teams without any all stars be better, and we have 2 of them...

Been saying this for 3 years now and ppl bash me

[Degoat]

Man if we only had a promising talented big with this young core

[Mugen]

whats the 5th?

points, rebounds, assists, steals

IG story posts

[FkLA]

No reason why Patty should be closing today. But that's the one bad thing about him playing so well to start the year. Pop starts considering him an automatic closer.

[duncan2k5]

DJ with 5x5 game. Kids have been solid.

He doesn't have a 5x5 game...but yes ..he is playing well

[8sy21vd]

LMA just needs one steal or block for a quadruple single.

[PhantomDashCam]

whats the 5th?

points, rebounds, assists, steals

Apologies mate, mistyped. Meant to say 5x4 game.

[spurraider21]

why are you guys talking about LMA as though he's an all star? :lol

[duncan2k5]

LMA just needs one steal or block for a quadruple single.

Progress!

[Arcadian]

The future of the franchise appears to be in good hands with Vassell and Johnson :tu

[Mugen]

:lol Why tf is Patty it and not DV?

[r0drig0lac]

IG story posts

alpha

[FkLA]

Big Body is an alpha. He's the next great Spur.

[Chomag]

Keldon belongs!

[Mugen]

:lol Demar would have a Ledger/Joker tattoo tbh

[spurraider21]

big run in the 3rd quarter behind Keldon/Lonnie/Dejoute... glad we had been going to Derozan and Patty for the first half of the 4th :lol

[Robz4000]

:lmao this low-IQ play

[NASpurs]

3 point game :lol

[Mugen]

seriously why is Patty closing when he's been garbage all game? Lonnie and DV have had much better games.

[r0drig0lac]

no lead is safe with these guys

[TheGreatYacht]

Maybe bring in an actual floor general like Murray in, Poop...

[SPURt]

He stepped out it looked like

[spurraider21]

seriously why is Patty closing when he's been garbage all game? Lonnie and DV have had much better games.
:pop:

[Blackhaus]

Take mills out and put walker back in

[RC_Drunkford]

when will Flopovich realize 50 Mills shouldn't be on the floor to close out this game?

[PhantomDashCam]

Hammer play incoming?

[FkLA]

Yeah, let's close it out with LA post-ups, Pop. :rolleyes:

[Chomag]

seriously why is Patty closing when he's been garbage all game? Lonnie and DV have had much better games.
:pop:

[onechance87]

Pop why switch the rotation,If it working so well

[Capt Bringdown]

KJ looks like Barkley on O, Larry Kenon on D

[Robz4000]

What an embarrassment

[NASpurs]

:lmao tied game

[Chomag]

I think Murray's brain just checks out sometimes

[r0drig0lac]

damn murray

[8sy21vd]

lol at aldridge jumping in the paint to block wood's 3

[Mugen]

:lol This team

[james evans]

Apparently Popovich teaches that 2 is more than 3.

[Leetonidas]

Seriously why is Mills out there

[Chomag]

Lmao just as I said it....

[r0drig0lac]

Wood is Davis lite

[NASpurs]

The loss is going to embarrassing.

[8sy21vd]

Clown show to end this game lol

[Robz4000]

:lmao fuck this team

[Em-City]

wtf is murray doing - blocked layup, throws away the ball, then fouls wood.

[r0drig0lac]

Jesus... this is an absolutely shameful result

[onechance87]

murray wtf

[Chomag]

Lmao this team man....

[Leetonidas]

Spurs deserve to lose. Completely abandoned the game that got them the lead to let the trash trio of DD/LA/Mills take all the fucking shots in the 4th. Fucking unbelievable

[NASpurs]

:lmao

[RC_Drunkford]

most embarassing L of the season

[Mugen]

:lmao

[james evans]

Welp, the great Popovich has cost us another game with his bullshit rotations. Walker is on fire and he’s benched for mills who can’t hit shit

[Robz4000]

Did the Spurs run out of gas again?!

[Mugen]

50, Demar and LA show. Thanks Pop :lol

[spurraider21]

Derozan, Aldridge, and Patty closing this game about as well as could be expected :lmao

[SpurPadre]

15-2 run against a depleted Rockets team at home. Such a shitty 4th quarter team.

[NASpurs]

:pop: "Patty keep shooting the rock. Did I tell you you remind me of Step Curry?"

[TheGreatYacht]

No one helping LMA up :lmao

[Darius Bieber]

Only game on national TV this year, and we look like complete ass

[MultiTroll]

SpurFans who call LMA "the best player on the team." :downspin::lmao

Clutch airball.

[LeBowen]

Never happier about a loss, tbh.
Young guys looked like they could score at will, but they literally can't see the ball in the 4th.
Absolute meltdown as soon as Patty checked in. And Lonnie has to eat the bench because of it, just beyond disgusting.

LMA can go f himself with his touches.

[Kurgan]

Aldridge is done. Lost us the game with his lazy, shit play all night.

[SPURt]

This is pathetic... why is Lonnie not in there?

[poopbox]

Derozan jumping in the air with nowhere to go while LMA airballs a corner 3 :lmao

[spurraider21]

Lonnie and Patty have played the same amount of minutes today, shameful

[Chomag]

Why does Pop refuse to use the line ups that get results!?

[NASpurs]

Did the Spurs run out of gas again?!

Running on fumes bruh. Gas only lasts 3/4 of a game.

[RC_Drunkford]

Welp, the great Popovich has cost us another game with his bullshit rotations. Walker is on fire and he’s benched for mills who can’t hit shit

:pop: "we need that veteran leadership. Lonnie has to learn how to get over himself"

[Texas_Ranger]

Mills and Aldridge thanx for the loss u two fucks.

[FkLA]

Wombat is fucking worthless if he's not hot. Old man just couldn't help letting his favoritism take over.

[Capt Bringdown]

LOL Murray

[KaiRMD1]

Well .... this is just plain sad

[CGD]

The interior defense is laughable

[onechance87]

If we lose this..This is on pop...Why not have vassell or walker play instead of patty....This is not pattys game

[ace3g]

I feel like Tate is taller than his listed 6'4.

[8sy21vd]

Sad to watch Aldridge. He looks completely done.

[212094ever]

They're going right at LMA's carcass

[Barfunk]

Wombat is fucking worthless if he's not hot. Old man just couldn't help letting his favoritism take over.

Fucking Pop smh

[CGD]

If we lose this..This is on pop...Why not have vassell or walker play instead of patty....This is not pattys game

No, it’s on LMA

[Mugen]

:lol good to have Demar back

[Blackhaus]

Pop grade F++++

[timtonymanu]

Just always asking for one nice play in moments like this and it's another Derozan miss.

[Kurgan]

His shooting may be off due to rust but Fatridge getting outrebounded by guards every night this season tells me he's fallen off a cliff.

[LeBowen]

Is there any other team in the league right now that doesn't have a single useful player who's 6'8 or taller?

Or shorter than 6'4? :lol:

[TheGreatYacht]

When Poop brings in Fatty Mills in for a defensive stop >>>>>

[Mugen]

let's see who Patty's gonna give up this bucket to :lol

[poopbox]

Probably going to get curb stomped Saturday when Oladipo shows up and Wall is back :lmao

[spurraider21]

:lol good to have Demar back
he's still a positive more often that not, but pop's refusal to go to the hot hand on a given night is just nuts

[Degoat]

LMA and Jakob cost us this game if we do lose, haven’t seen that pathetic of a performance in awhile

[Joseph Kony]

Why tf is Mills in on ANY defensive possession to end the game? Is pop having a stroke? :lol

[Chomag]

We ain't tanking we just got some trash players taking up minutes

[james evans]

Johnson got away with a foul.

[timtonymanu]

Who's gonna miss here?

[Capt Bringdown]

Layup drill for the Rockets

[spurraider21]

that shoulda been a call on keldon tbh :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

Johnson got away with a foul.
Hell no

[james evans]

One of 2 things will happen. Play fir mills to brick a 3 or Defrozen gonna let the click go down and brick on an iso.

[TheGreatYacht]

Oh god Poop has the clipboard. Best case scenario is a quick turnover here lmao

[Robz4000]

Here comes the DePression iso-chuck that misses the rim.

[SpurPadre]

Who's gonna miss here?

DDR of course. He's the anti-buzzer beater.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Layup drill for the Rockets

What? He went straight up

[NASpurs]

Pop's furiously drawing a play up for Patty and chastising others if they don't pass the ball to him.

[The Truth #6]

I’m late to this thread. Has everyone been complaining that we should’ve signed Wood instead of Poetl? Just assuming.

[8sy21vd]

iso airball incoming? Hope I'm wrong

[Chomag]

Here comes the DePression iso-chuck that misses the rim.
Qft

[KaiRMD1]

PA-THETIC

[timtonymanu]

That's the fucking best they can do again :lol

[Joseph Kony]

fucking predictable

[Robz4000]

:lmao

[tlongII]

That was ugly.

[james evans]

One of 2 things will happen. Play fir mills to brick a 3 or Defrozen gonna let the click go down and brick on an iso.
Welp. Popovich is so fuckin predictable

[timtonymanu]

"We can win on a 3, let's go to a Derozan iso that only ties it." SMH Pop.

[Mugen]

:lol why would you not have Lonnie in

[NASpurs]

Is that what Pop really drew up? I believe it.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Pop has always seens patty mills like the second coming of Steve Nash. Hell before the game he was talking about patty winning the 6th man of the year

[8sy21vd]

Well deserved loss.

[timtonymanu]

DDR of course. He's the anti-buzzer beater.

It's like everyone but Pop sees it coming.

[TheGreatYacht]

Poop needs to retire

[FkLA]

This is on Pop.

[sananspursfan21]

No excuse. Up 9 with 4 minutes to go and all the momentum. The lack of perimeter defense is already getting old

[Arcadian]

Man, we would've won with Harden still sabotaging their performance.

[Barfunk]

Pop still up to his old fucking tricks

[Mugen]

:lol it's been a while since I've watched a garbage Pop game

[Robz4000]

The fuck?

Anyway, I say he scores 16.

So where's my crown Sugus?

[Kurgan]

Dumbar chokes the game away as expected. And some Spurs fans want to extend him :lol Trade him at the deadline for whatever you can get

[LeBowen]

Fuck this.
Like how's Lonnie supposed to ever develop?
Drops 50 in 2 games, was doing well today and then Patty closes the game out, even though it was his worst game of the season.
Against an awful team, no less.

[onechance87]

pathetic

[Texas_Ranger]

Derozan has never been clutch, is not clutch and will never be clutch.

[Mugen]

But it's important that we bring Demar back in the off season :lol

[kjhip1]

Call a timeout for Derozan to go iso. Pure genius

[duncan2k5]

he's still a positive more often that not, but pop's refusal to go to the hot hand on a given night is just nuts
He has literally been a net negative his entire career

[TheGreatYacht]

:lol it's been a while since I've watched a garbage Pop game
He played Lyles 35min in a game just this week

[Chomag]

:lol:downspin::rollin:lmao:depressed

[r0drig0lac]

the current league is an athletes league, and unless your big slow is a basketball genius like Jokic, you're screwed (look at Towns), Jakob / Aldridge is probably the worst frontcourt in the league (by far)

[itzsoweezee]

This team will never change as long as demar is on the roster. Hate to see good young players get quality minutes taken away so that this scrub can get to be hero

[timtonymanu]

:lol it's been a while since I've watched a garbage Pop game

I think it's more rare to see a well coached Pop game these days.

[sananspursfan21]

If our guys are ahead in the final few minutes, you can almost guarantee they’ll lose it and lose the game. Insane

[Bynumite]

Imagine losing to a Rockets team completely depleted by trades and injuries and forced to play g leaguers :lmao

Fat Antonio Cucks :lmao

[Mugen]

As soon as I saw the old man with a clipboard, I was expecting the worst possible "play" to end the game. And they never disappoint :lol

[Degoat]

Humiliating loss lol I can’t get over how shitty our bigs are tho

[NASpurs]

But it's important that we bring Demar back in the off season :lol

He's been here for 3 years, he's oozing of "corporate knowledge and great locker room guy".

[duncan2k5]

Dumbar chokes the game away as expected. And some Spurs fans want to extend him :lol Trade him at the deadline for whatever you can get
Exactly...many ppl on here don't get it

[Robz4000]

Hopefully this is the start of a long losing streak that gets the tank back on track (and looking at the schedule it seems likely).

[poopbox]

Only terrible teams lose games like this...

Rockets have dealt with a covid outbreak, a disgruntled star, traded said star and barely had enough players to suit up, and still beat the spurs :lmao

LMA and Poeltl are aging me in dog years...legit 2 of the 5 worst bigs in the nba...

The off-season can't get here fast enough

[Kurgan]

McLemore outrebounded LMA tonight and he's 6'3

[8sy21vd]

Worst coach, worst FO and worst front court in the league is hard to overcome. Good news is Keldon and Vassell.

[SpurPadre]

It's like everyone but Pop sees it coming.

The definition of insanity when he expects a different result, tbh.

[timtonymanu]

Imagine losing to a Rockets team completely depleted by trades and injuries and forced to play g leaguers :lmao

Fat Antonio Cucks :lmao

Any non homer knows this Spurs team is mediocre at best but keep obsessing.

[spurraider21]

But it's important that we bring Demar back in the off season :lol
and run the offense through LMA this season :lmao

[Mugen]

I think it's more rare to see a well coached Pop game these days.

He's stayed out of the way most of the year but of course Fatty and Dumbar are locked into clutch time mins regardless of how shitty they're playing and how good the young guys are playing. Same old shit from the old man. :lol

[Gibbz]

And with that, I've lost all interest in watching.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

What an embarrassment. Pop, patty, LA, portal, Derozan. I’m embarrassed I don’t even know what to say.

[onechance87]

Losing to a state rival always sucks....Especially when there best players aint playing

[timtonymanu]

As soon as I saw the old man with a clipboard, I was expecting the worst possible "play" to end the game. And they never disappoint :lol

Same here, tbh. :lol

[td4mvp2k]

LMA needs to go

[Dex]

Well that is...less than ideal.

[RD2191]

:lol every spurm fan should just off themselves tbh. this shit is beyond embarrassing

[Barfunk]

Typical "I know what everybody wants me to do and what I should be doing, but I'm going to do the exact opposite because my ego comes first" game from Pop. Smh.

[PhantomDashCam]

https://media.giphy.com/media/2fC4V2UeJveb6/giphy.gif

[Chomag]

We ain't winning shit until Pop leaves and takes his pets with him.

[murpjf88]

Only terrible teams lose games like this...

Rockets have dealt with a covid outbreak, a disgruntled star, traded said star and barely had enough players to suit up, and still beat the spurs :lmao

LMA and Poeltl are aging me in dog years...legit 2 of the 5 worst bigs in the nba...

The off-season can't get here fast enough
It's what low IQ basketball teams do. This is not a good basketball team.

[daslicer]

Spurs have no interior defense. There was a stretch where the Spurs couldn't get a defensive stop for 5 minutes in the fourth. It was pretty insane to see the Rocket players get a ton of layups. Spurs were also unfortunate to play the Rockets after getting rid of Harden. Rockets are going to be on an emotional high getting rid of that asshole so I expect them to play really well for a few games until they fall back down to earth.

[John B]

This was on Pop. That was soft. He’s getting in love with Mills again. The guy is not a starter. Lonnie was supposed to be there for better defense and aggressive. Mills negate that.

[spurraider21]

He's stayed out of the way most of the year but of course Fatty and Dumbar are locked into clutch time mins regardless of how shitty they're playing and how good the young guys are playing. Same old shit from the old man. :lol
he's treating Lonnie like a rookie when he's a 3rd year player

[Mugen]

Fatty playing more minutes than DV and Lonnie tonight :lol

[RC_Drunkford]

this loss is on the vets. Keldon, Lonnie, DJ and Vassell all played great. Meanwhile the vets had to much Chucky Cheese and threw up bricks. I'm not even blaming DeRozan for that miss, it should've never gotten to the point where we need to tie it up to go OT. This should've been a blow out. Flopovich deserves some blame as well for playing 50 Mills instead of Walker. Play Lonnie in the 4th and we win this. Totally expected this to happen though. Typical Flopovich coaching. Some people said he's the best motivator in the league :lol

[spurraider21]

:lol every spurm fan should just off themselves tbh. this shit is beyond embarrassing
whats frustrating is that even with White injured, we have the horses to carry the team from the perimeter, and pop says nah, gotta run through Demar and Patty no matter what

[SpurPadre]

Derozan is the worst buzzer-beater shooter in the history of the game not only because he doesn't make any, but because he takes so many buzzer-beating shot attempts to no avail. It's amazing how much a player can take that many and miss them so many times.

[heyheymymy]

Every time I feel like we're a piece short I can't help but think of what we got for Kawhi and then what thunder got for Paul and what rockets got for fat harden.

But hats off to wood. Fucks sake that guy was unstoppable tonight

Adam silver should let us get rid of la and ddr for whatever pieces we want after this bullshit

You build a team around a guy and more so than ever with a team like the spurs who don't just buy a roster they put thought into it over years at a time and some mentally weak loser decides he want to play in los Angeles and disrupts a multi year assembly of components and schemes and takes half a decade of corporate knowledge with him it's a little destabilizing to say the least.

Fuxk this baby boy nba2k sugar rush league it's like a middle schooler is running the show.

[NASpurs]

I know the philosophy of the Spurs always has been to funnel drivers to the middle but when you have the shell of LMA there and Poeltl receiving free checks, it's kind of difficult not to be mediocre.

[Chinook]

So it's gonna be a year like last year where SA pulls off some great victories but misses the playoffs but dropping gimmies at an alarming rate... Embarrassing. Terrible play but the closing lineup, and Pop had no desire to swap them.

[Kurgan]

He's stayed out of the way most of the year but of course Fatty and Dumbar are locked into clutch time mins regardless of how shitty they're playing and how good the young guys are playing. Same old shit from the old man. :lol

Most frustrating thing about the senile old man is his inability to recognize the hot hand. Has to close with the same players, no matter how bad they've played

[Ditty]

Here comes Pop with the soft card probably. I bet we blow them out next game.

Finally able to watch the second game of the year after YouTube got rid of fox sports southwest. Glad I haven’t wasted my time watching this trash team.

Thankfully when our young talent are in their prime - Pop will be gone. Hopefully only another season guys. Lets hang in there...

[spurraider21]

this loss is on the vets. Keldon, Lonnie, DJ and Vassell all played great. Meanwhile the vets had to much Chucky Cheese and threw up bricks. I'm not even blaming DeRozan for that miss, it should've never gotten to the point where we need to tie it up to go OT. This should've been a blow out.

Some people said he's the best motivator in the league :lol
its on pop, not the vets

vets can have off games here and there. its on pop to decide to go with the hot hand when thats happening

[TimDunkem]

If we lose to the oladipo-less, Wall-less Rockets trade everyone on the spot

I shudder to think what the lineup is gonna look like when Derrick is back tbh. Lonnie and DV getting their mins cut even more smh.

Losing close games has a major luck contingent. You know your team is good if they blow out other teams and bad if they are blown out. Losing close games really tells you nothing.

This sucks. But it doesn't mean anything particularly.

He's stayed out of the way most of the year but of course Fatty and Dumbar are locked into clutch time mins regardless of how shitty they're playing and how good the young guys are playing. Same old shit from the old man. :lol

DeMar undoubtedly belongs in the closing line-up. Wombat OTOH...

Derozan is the worst buzzer-beater shooter in the history of the game not only because he doesn't make any, but because he takes so many buzzer-beating shot attempts to no avail. It's amazing how much a player can take that many and miss them so many times.

All you gotta do is play his driving game because his 3 pointer is non existant and you'll live with a contested mid range shot.

tough night for Aldridge on defense, Mills also had a rough night, bad loss, next game pls

Can it get any worse than this situation? Is it really possible? They beat the elite as of late and get beaten by an inferior team on national TV?
