:lol Good, now I can get on with my night and play some Returnal

[DeRozan m8]

Ben Simmons finally does something half meaningful.

Dudes ego is through the roof for a player who wouldn't be shit without Embiid and belongs in the 90s at best.

Garbage cunt

[BillMc]

Ball looked in the cylinder to me.

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

too much patty
not enough lonnie brains or balls

[BatManu20]

Keldon ball-watching instead of boxing out. He made some mistakes down the stretch that are good teaching points.

Nice, competitive loss tbh.

[Leetonidas]

:lol Good, now I can get on with my night and play some Returnal

Same which is ironic since I'm probably going to be stuck in the same spot for the next few hours :lol

Sounds like the perfect franchise player for the Spurs to build around

How many of these loses has the Spurs had over the last 3 seasons?

[KaiRMD1]

I came into this game with low expectations dnd was pleasantly surprised. Demar will be back in the next game and im sure the ol sport will cost us the game unnecessarily

Awesome dunks tonight including this one

[TimDunkem]

Right? lmao Sounds like perfect 2021 Spurs material.

[timtonymanu]

Why do I feel like Rudy and Patty are both back next year? Demar I'm still not sure about, but those two I definitely see them bringing back especially because Pop has a fetish for garbage veterans.

[sananspursfan21]

When is Rudy going to grow up in a veteran clutch play sense? I’m not asking for him to have ice in his veins, just to have some veteran savvy. These boneheaded mistakes seem to be kinda common toward the end for him. Don’t ask me to recall a specific instance but it feels like I’ve seen that movie before...

[Capt Bringdown]

Damn, the Spurs couldn't have made it any easier for the Sixers to tip that ball in, huh?

[BillMc]

Only saw ovetime. How did Devin and Luka look? Was Lonnie as good as his numbers?

[Chinook]

Keldon basically self-destructed down the stretch. He did a lot of good with the bad, but the bad basically ruined the team in the last minute.

[offset formation]

Good lesson for KJ. Out of position on the boards there and out of control on two drives. Trust your mid range bud.

Yup. Beat me to it. Thanks for the L Keldon.

[ace3g]

Last substitution Pop made was with 4:27 left to go in 4th quarter...

[sananspursfan21]

That charge they called on Keldon around the minute mark that got challenged seemed pretty suspect. Simmons leaned into KJ pretty good to make him “charge”, even after looking at the replay

[Dejounte]

https://mobile.twitter.com/HDB_ok/status/1389041759708196865?s=19

So many blunders by Patty tonight, especially in the last minute of the fourth

[sananspursfan21]

[timtonymanu]

None of the young guys strike me as the next franchise player for this team but I don't want Derozan back at 30 million a year just so he can barely keep the Spurs at a .500 record at best. Time to embrace the lottery life. Too bad we won't get anything in the top 10 this year.

[tbdog]

I like Keldon, he is one of my favourite Spurs to watch. He is just longer away from being the glue guy. I suspect when the Spurs go after a big, ie Towns, Twolves will ask for Keldon as one of young targets. And I think the Spurs would be happy to make that deal.

[sananspursfan21]

Anybody know why Rudy plays like a Spurs rookie fresh out of the G-League in crunch time? Forget the game tying layup, I’m still trying to figure out that stupid turnover on that pass :lol

[Degoat]

Even though we lost it was a pretty great game! Wish Lonnie wouldn’t have disappeared in OT lol also need Vassell to pick it up he’s looked bad the last two games

[sananspursfan21]

“When” eh? Think they got a shot at him realistically? Real question, not instigating

[GAustex]

What fun game. Sixers half assing it and the young bucks busting a gut-what fun.
Keldon is all heart.

[Dennis the Menace]

That ball still looked in the cylinder...

Keldon’s next growth phase will be pull up mid-range shot. Really looking forward to when he develops it. He’s fun to watch and seems like a good genuine person. He’s that “glue guy” ala Manu style

[tbdog]

“When” eh? Think they got a shot at him realistically? Real question, not instigating

I think there are a few big names the Spurs can realistically target. And I realistically believe Towns is available. Spurs have all their picks, youth and cap space. They don't have to match 30mil in salary to get it done. The Spurs can offer all three things a team wants when they trade away their franchise player. Youth, picks, and cap space.

Nah, he's playing like Rudy Gay - that's who he is.
Spurs are his 7th team - for a reason.

Spurs have now played 7 overtime games this season (including 3 of the last 4) - San Antonio has only had one year with more overtime games in an entire season - 8 in 1983-84.

I would agree with that assessment... do it RC! Er uh, Brian.

His mid-range has looked smooth lately. He went back to his bad habits in OT. Almost like he forgot he could shoot.

[playbonner15]

Dont give Poop any Credit for any thing about this game. Im sick of the HEB club of Rudy DDR and especially fucking Patty mills

He is HINDERING development of the young player not helping them in any way

This So called Goat coach running plays for This Brown Nosing Towel waiving Fuggot like his is godam Tony Parker or something.

The idiot that Said Simmons did nothing until the end is typical of SPURMS TALK eye tester. Simmons was pushing in Spurs Perimeter SHIT all day (including patty) He is the best defender in the game and showed that tonight


Fuckn POP is the only man who can Buy a CULDESAC in the luxury development of THE DOMINION cause he don't want no neighbors and be allowed to LECTURE YOUR

ABOUT

YOUR PRIVILEGES....

Nobody of any meaning calls him on his many piles of such bullshit including crowning that little fugget by running Tony and Manu Plays through his tiny ripple brother ass.
Biggest Conman in TEXAS SPORTS HISTORY...... Coat Tailing Mother Efer Pooop CAN'T WAIT FOR HIM TO FLAIM OUT IN JAPAN!!!!

So that's why there's always a combo of Patty, Rudy, Demar - it's for mfin HEB ads. Pop's a capitalist pig confirmed :greedy

Pop on if Simmons' tap in was just a great play or if there was something his guys could have done better, if Keldon blocked out OK. "Things happen." Pop said.

Even Spurs media is influencing the narrative that vets don't make mistakes, lol. Simmons was Rudy's man.

Thanks for this. Yes it seems like we have had a lot of OT's which is encouraging. Have we won any? Just can't recall an OT win of late.

[BillMc]

I didn't see the game but it seems Lonnie is scoring pretty well more often. Not sure about the rest of his game.

Thank Ace! Wasn't sure...thought it was worse.

[duncan2k5]

I didn't see the game but it seems Lonnie is scoring pretty well more often. Not sure about the rest of his game.

Sometimes ppl are only great offensively, and u have to accept them the way they are...or else u will have Pop benching someone like Luka Doncic for years because of bad defense and missed assignments

[BillMc]

That's a good point. I mean otherwise he'd never play DeMar. Still, Lonnie's too young to be satisfied as an offense-only player.

Thank you!!! Look at the stinking play! RUDY CAME OFF SIMMONS FOR NO REASON!! Don't lay this loss on Keldon ... IF RUDY F'ING GAY BOXES OUT SIMMONS THAT GAME GOES TO 2OT!!! EMBID WAS SINGLE COVERED AND TOOK A CONTESTED SHOT, THAT DEFENDER DID HIS JOB!! RUDY LEAVES BEN SIMMONS ALONE UNDER THE BASKET FOR NO REASON, AND LOOKS AT KELDON SIDEWAYS BECAUSE RUDY'S MAN WINS THE GAME FOR THE 76ERS!! GET THESE LOSER VETS OFF THIS TEAM, AND FIRE THIS STINKING COACH!!!
