Game Thread: Spurs vs Bucks - MON. 05/10/2021 — 9:30pm/C

[DC23]

Hopefully it doesn't hurt too bad!

[GAustex]

Lol 9:30

[EasyMoney]

Bryn Forbes will go off. How great.

[Darius Bieber]

Watch Brent Forms completely shut down Mills like he’s prime Gary Payton

[exstatic]

It’s not at 9:30. 7:30 CST.

[twincam]

99% chance says that we all know the end result of this one, since they are playing at home (S.A.). Yet we all still witness the dismay of their lack of rebounding and weak interior defense. Hard to say that I tend to cheer for the opposition to prove even more that the Spurs chemistry is not working.

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

Hopefully the Bucks rest everyone this game and then we only lose a close one to their back ups.

LMAO

:lol

I’m really hoping that since we’re finishing with 5 in 7 days, that Pop takes the oppo to rest DD, since it’s a home game. We have a small chance if he sits.

[LeBowen]

Idk what's better...

Getting blown out early on so Luka and Devin get more minutes?

or

A tough overtime loss that would mean old turds get a DNP for the Knicks game, then maybe we can win that one.

[Dex]

It’s not at 9:30. 7:30 CST.

It'll probably be over by 8 in case anyone needs to get to bed early. :lol

[Darius Bieber]

It'll probably be over by 8 in case anyone needs to get to bed early. :lol

I was thinking by 7:45

[BillMc]

Go Spurs Go!:flag:

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

forbes on mills and mills on forbes is going to be like watching doctor strange battle doctor strange with the dual strategy of letting himself be killed infinite times

[Dejounte]

[Arcadian]

This should be amusing.

[NASpurs]

https://twitter.com/JeffGSpursZone/status/1391887693789925385?s=19

Blah blah blah. I’m sure the young players already know their roles and to watch Gay, Mills and DeRozan jack up shots.

Man, a lot of military service members have already been through too much…. Why make them suffer through this torture tonight on military appreciation night?

[Degoat]

I know y’all loving that Bryn Forbes tribute lol

[PhantomDashCam]

Team is playing well thus far.

DJ and KJ both doing work. :tu

[Leetonidas]

Anyone going to play defense tonight? :lol

[MultiTroll]

Is Freak injured or just resting?
Started, played 3 minutes now still out as 1st qtr is ending.

Bud just satisfying spineless Stern Jr. and the sit out rule?

Foul Trouble

[Sugus]

Man, the way the Spurs just refuse to push the pace even when they get steals is infuriating. They literally give up fastbreak opportunities to let the other team's defense get set (and for DeRozan to come back jogging down the court, most of the time, so he can be the Designated Offense Initiator). I really wonder how many points they could score by commiting to some run-and-gun schemes.....

...and practicing them :lol

[Leetonidas]

Pretty fun quarter. Definitely means spurs will go on a huge scoring drought at some point:lol

[r0drig0lac]

45 points ..lol bucks

[Dejounte]

Everybody is feelin it tonight

[DAF86]

45 points ..lol bucks

Still a single digits game .. lol spurs

[Robz4000]

Bucks 160
Spurs 130

imo

[twincam]

Will not last. Reality will hit. Remember that 32 point lead???

[ismael-robert]

:cry:cry:cry:cry:cry:cry that Bryn tribute...bryns return confirmed.

[Leetonidas]

Bout fucking time Wombat shows up

[FkLA]

Just tuning in.

Did they really give Brent a tribute? :lmao

[EasyMoney]

Demar is gonna come in and fuck it up with his mid range isos

[timtonymanu]

Bout fucking time Wombat shows up

Spurs really need 3 point shooting, man. The fact that wombat doesn’t show up most games yet still is the best 3 point shooter they have is frustrating

[Robz4000]

Bucks will play seriously for one quarter and outscore the Spurs by 40 tbh.

[KobesAchilles]

Please let us keep this 20 point lead. I can’t handle a Boston fiasco again

[Trill Clinton]

Team playing hard and Pop coaching his ass offhttps://www.thecoli.com/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/whoo.png


God bless our troopshttps://www.thecoli.com/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/aqDwC.png

[Darius Bieber]

Bud must be doing Pop a solid

[davi78239]

Well so much for losing out. Annoying. If they’re gonna be this good, then why aren’t they contending? Either contend or suck ass! Then the next game they’ll probably look like shit. Anyone else annoyed by this??

[ace3g]

Dynamic Duo actually look like they are deserving of the minutes allotted to them tonight.

[Joseph Kony]

WTF :wow

[Robz4000]

How many teams have blown multiple 20+ point leads in a season?

[EasyMoney]

One of those nights.

[Dejounte]

The Brent tribute is what turned this season around

Full circle

Positive vibes

Spurs got her groove back

[DAF86]

lol

I can't help but wait for the inevitable choke though.

[duncan2k5]

Wow... Lol... I love when we are rolling... Usually happens when Murray is super engaged defensively and offensively

[DAF86]

Well so much for losing out. Annoying. If they’re gonna be this good, then why aren’t they contending? Either contend or suck ass! Then the next game they’ll probably look like shit. Anyone else annoyed by this??

This is some of the flukiest of shooting nights, tbh.

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

Shooting the lights out so far.

It isn’t sustainable but hopefully they don’t get jump shot happy and stay aggressive the whole game getting to the hoop

[ace3g]

Nice pass from Poeltl to Lonnie.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Well we all know how this game ends lmao.

[Darius Bieber]

Bet the house on the Bucks to win tbh

[EasyMoney]

Demar comes in, doesn't look to shoot a 3, turns it over and Milwaukee drills a 3. Of course.

[duncan2k5]

DeMar comes in and we immediately suck

[ace3g]

3 point defense....

Of course Bucks are hitting a lot of tough 3s tonight.

[Robz4000]

Bucks will have this below ten by halftime and will have the lead halfway through the third.

[Sugus]

Dejounte standing right on the 3pt line, picking up his dribble, then desperately looking to pass to guarded players on the perimeter while his defender keeps sagging off :lol

[ismael-robert]

There's the second gear...told yall

[r0drig0lac]

wow Giannis poster

[Robz4000]

Dejounte standing right on the 3pt line, picking up his dribble, then desperately looking to pass to guarded players on the perimeter while his defender keeps sagging off :lol

If you can move him for a solid pick this offseason you do it imo.

[Dejounte]

Nice pass to Keldon by Lonnie, too bad Keldon couldn't convert

[duncan2k5]

That Giannis dunk was sick! Gotta admit

[Trill Clinton]

Attack Bryn in the pick n roll every time he's in the game please.

[Leetonidas]

Lol demar passing on that 3

[r0drig0lac]

87...nba sucks

[timtonymanu]

:lmao Bucks. Bud may be doing Pop a favor but lol @ 87 first half points. All of the Bucks playing Brent Forms defense.

[RC_Drunkford]

Haven’t watched. How the hell did we score 87 in a half against the Bucks?

[ismael-robert]

Again it's called 10th seed n 10th pick. Win win. And rob dj will hit yet another gear after another summer development

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

Hopefully the TURD quarter streak doesn’t continues with our squad this game

they gotta come out aggressive on offense and talk on defense. I feel a lot of the issues on defense besides bad personnel is they don’t talk enough.

[SpurPadre]

Bet the house on the Bucks to win tbh

For our sake, we better hope so.

[Dejounte]

Climate change putting in work.

[widowmaker]

Im sure they’ll figure out a way on how to loose the game.

[ismael-robert]

When the fuck did we become tornado ally, tbh?

Ain't it bout time for new sig

[KobesAchilles]

Going in strong before the playoffs. Better watch out Memphis. You’re next!

[RC_Drunkford]

this franchise is retarded :lmao :lmao :lmao

[Robz4000]

Meltdown is starting

[Sugus]

Bruh are we really about to hit 100 points with more than half the third Q to go? WTF happened last game, these ain't my Spurs :lol

[Robz4000]

:wow Murray hit a catch-and-shoot three

[ismael-robert]

Strategic tanking

[FkLA]

Lonnie said his favorite book is The Art of War by Sun Tzu

But lately I think he's been reading The Art of Finishing

We're seeing growth finally

Second best development this season after Murray's growth

[duncan2k5]

Derozan being a diva because he got blocked

[Dejounte]

Derozan being a diva because he got blocked

That was Paul Pierce-level acting

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

Lonnie is getting better at finishing and is starting to finally realize not to shy too much away from contact which is great.

If Keldon had Lonnie’s athletic ability and shooting form............. MAN!!!

[Chomag]

Just a minute ago DDR looked like he was on his death bed and now he is completely fine... Its a miracle!!! lol

[Dex]

And here...we...go...

[Robz4000]

NBA refs are absolutely selective about how they officiate games tbh.

[PhantomDashCam]

I know DDR might of been fouled on 1 or 2 drives…but don’t take the team out of its sets to go on some personal rim attacking spree…next play mentality bud. No personal vendettas.

[The Truth #6]

I'm 50/50 if we hold on to this lead.

[Chomag]

If Spurs lose this lead :lol

[Robz4000]

:lol choking fucks

[Leetonidas]

Kinda funny that Forbes is getting lit up by a scrub yet again:lmao

[Robz4000]

:lmao Murray can't run a fastbreak to save his life

[ismael-robert]

Forbes defensive stop!

[duncan2k5]

Dejounte Nash! I keep saying if he is aggressive offensively, the passing lanes will open

[Dejounte]

Kinda funny that Forbes is getting lit up by a scrub yet again:lmao

Poetry

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

Kinda funny that Forbes is getting lit up by a scrub yet again:lmao

Just what Patty needed to get him out of his shooting slump. Good ole Bryn Forbes. Lmao

[Dex]

Did Murray just got blocked by Forbes on the fast break?

[Dex]

Jesus Christ, do they give Giannis 30 seconds for every free throw?

Dude sets up, has a cup of coffee, steps to the line, solves a crossword, asks for the ball, meditates, then dribbles 15 times before even looking at the rim.

[Arcadian]

What the fuck? Why are we winning?

[Chomag]

This Patty on Forbes scrub on scrub action is kinda funny to watch.:lol

[Sugus]

What a bailout from Keldon, he's so fucking good at finishing

[poopbox]

Coach Bud doing Pop a solid leaving Brynn in the game

[Dejounte]

Fun fact: Spurs were rumored to be interested in drafting DiVicienzo. Wonder what would have happened if he was there at 18th with Lonnie Walker available. Pop was said to have a five hour call with him pre-draft.

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

What a bailout from Keldon, he's so fucking good at finishing

yea he is!2nd best on the team behind Demar.

He just needs to work on his shooting and offensively he can do some serious damage. I’m very excited to see how much he can improve with an actual off season with the coaching staff helping him

[YoungbuckMurray]

That’s BS that shouldn’t be overturned. NBA biased towards Giannis

[The Truth #6]

Talk about an outlier of a game.

Anyway, if Pop is going to ride his vets to the end for his big playoff push, I hate to say the team needs to lose poorly from here on out to give us any chance of not getting stuck with DDR for another 4 years.

[poopbox]

What a bullshit call

[ismael-robert]

Jesus Christ, do they give Giannis 30 seconds for every free throw?

Dude sets up, has a cup of coffee, steps to the line, solves a crossword, asks for the ball, meditates, then dribbles 15 times before even looking at the rim.

Jesus says he's got more important things to worry about why don't u ask buddah or Allah or just say Geeze

[BatManu20]

Spurs winning tbh.

[duncan2k5]

We need to let go of DeMar and fully transition into Lonnie being the Go-to scorer next season

[poopbox]

That possession is exactly why Derozan needs to be gone after this year. No one within 5 feet of him when he got the pass from patty but 0 % chance he was going to shoot a wide open 3. Then he compounded it by NOT getting the ball to lonnie and then shooting a 3...oh no wait it was a 2 cause his foot was on the line...

Please let somebody sign this dude at 12:01 am when free agency starts

[Uriel]

I miss Coach Bud.

[Dejounte]

So that overturn on Giannis was not a fucking challenge? Wow

[D-Robinson 50 fan]

Does anyone else smell burnt fur???

lmao

i miss new HEB commercials

[Sugus]

Please let somebody sign this dude at 12:01 am when free agency starts

Not to mention completely ignoring Lonnie again the very next possession and lone-dribbling himself into a contested paint shot.....

Can't be gone soon enough.

[Uriel]

This team plays to the level of its competition. If it's a good team, they play well. If it's a bad team, well......

[The Truth #6]

https://twitter.com/TheTyJager/status/1391935910808334337?s=19

Lonnie said his favorite book is The Art of War by Sun Tzu

But lately I think he's been reading The Art of Finishing

We're seeing growth finally

Second best development this season after Murray's growth

It's definitely been a slow, subtle surprise. Eubank's progress might be more pronounced, but obviously less important to the big picture.

[Dejounte]

Let's get Lonnie and Gay to 20... Will that be another franchise record?

[PhantomDashCam]

Poeltl two assists away from a triple double, and 1 point. Great game Spurs.

[Dex]

Jesus says he's got more important things to worry about why don't u ask buddah or Allah or just say Geeze

How about baby jeebus?

[Chomag]

Oh good grief, just put his jersey up on the rafters already lol

[Uriel]

Fun fact: Spurs were rumored to be interested in drafting DiVicienzo. Wonder what would have happened if he was there at 18th with Lonnie Walker available. Pop was said to have a five hour call with him pre-draft.
Weren't the Spurs ready to trade up to get Lonnie?

[ace3g]

Dieng euro step fast break dunk

[Uriel]

Wow. A center running the floor.

[boutons_deux]

Pop insults Saminic again with a 3 or 4 minutes of garbage time.

[Robz4000]

:lol Dieng styling on the Bucks

[Dejounte]

Weren't the Spurs ready to trade up to get Lonnie?

Jeff: What can you tell me about the meeting? I bet it went really well.

Donte: They (Spurs) really like me.

They're looking at a bunch of guys in that position (swing guard), obviously, but they think my ability to come off the bench is valuable.

To be able to play different positions to be able to initiate the offense. They're getting older guys - Manu (Ginobili) and Tony (Parker) - they're towards the end of their careers and they want young guys there that are similar to them. Not necessarily now but have the potential to be similar to them.

(Donte had a fantastic combine performance. He had a combine leading standing (34.5“) and max (42.0“) vertical leap. He had a top 10 three-quarter sprint at the combine. He has a 6‘4.5” with a 6’6” wingspan.)

Jeff: Who did you meet with? It was a great meeting overall I'm betting.

Donte: It was awesome! It was awesome! I met with Coach Pop. I was thrilled to meet with him, talk with him. He's a great guy. We talked basketball. We just sat there and talked basketball for a lot longer than I expected.

If he was a 38% three point shooter, he would be top 10.

[ace3g]

Vassell with another step back jumper

[Robz4000]

Really hope KBD is on the roster next season. Dude can ball.

[Chomag]

The way Tre moves around the court reminds me alot of Steve Nash, if he can work on his outside shooting look out!

[Uriel]

https://twitter.com/JeffGSpursZone/status/1391949676035944450?s=19

[Gibbz]

Real talk though. Isn't this guy having a career year this season?

He's always been able to hit open threes. In Milwaukee he gets to play fewer minutes and just chuck open threes. It's a lot easier than playing big minutes for SA as a focal point.

[John B]

Great win. Freakin Lonnie looked like Wade out there with his athleticism and control. Boy he’ll be exciting to watch. I hope this continues.

[Blackhaus]

The way Tre moves around the court reminds me alot of Steve Nash, if he can work on his outside shooting look out!

Wow, I don’t see that comparison at all. But if he lives up to a fraction of Nash level he could have a solid career. He’s gotta work on that jump shot and want to be aggressive scoring. He’s got all the other intangibles to be a solid point in the league.

Victory!

That was Spurs basketball before when players didn’t have to play outside of their “role”, but with too many holes players like Mills/Forbes were playing big starter minutes. The guy is a role player in a very good team.

[MannyIsGod]

I'm just fully convinced the best thing the Spurs can do next year is to get rid of Demar so that Lonnie can try to take that spot. Maybe he doens't grow into and its not enough, but the Spurs need to find out if he can do that.

[R. DeMurre]

Careful. You're gonna awaken R. DeMurre (https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=14577) and he's going to go off on another rant about how he should play more :lmao not that I agree or disagree.... it's just funny.

Wow. I wouldn't call it a rant so much as a calm assessment that running off a decent back up center who shoots the three because you'd rather give minutes to Mr Mediocre Eubanks is kind of a dumb strategy. But thanks for the name-check.

Murray
White
Lonnie
Keldon
Vassell

We stacked. 2 seasons from now... show me a loss

[Dennis the Menace]

Murray is the face of the franchise

Hand the reigns to Becky, stock up on the popcorn, and get your playoff tickets.

WTF
Bud did us solid?
DJM great game
Keldon is a beast
Patty was a busting
Why cannot Walker be like that more
Excise DDR

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

Just what Patty needed to get him out of his shooting slump. Good ole Bryn Forbes. Lmao

Gotta hope Demar gets bigger offers elsewhere cause I feel the Spurs will give him the max to stay at this point.

If the Spurs decide to punt on cap space to 2023 and don't rate to get any good free agents this summer, I could see them offering DDR a 2-year max. But I don't think he would take it.

Exactly right.. spurs need to find out.

Top effort.. go nervous in the second half after 87 first half. Lonnie steadied the ship there when it look like scoring would dry up.

Not that impressed with the individual d but team effort on Giannis was good enough. Jacob lead the way.

[Dennis the Menace]

% on Derozan leaving in offseason? Above 50%?

[John B]

The danger of Mills scoring 20pts is the PATFO rewarding him another contract :lol

[timtonymanu]

I don't want Demar back in any capacity :lol. I know the "keep Demar" crowd will throw their pitchforks, but really the ceiling with Demar sticking around is gonna be what it has been the last two years, barely good enough to be a .500 record team. Like Manny said, let Lonnie and the other guys a chance to prove themselves and take over his role. It may not work out, but at least we can see what players are worth keeping around instead of dicking around with finished products and vets and overpaying them just so we can qualify for the 9th seed at best. Pick a direction that makes sense.

Where's that gnsf doink DrewShow at with his spurg analysis now

[Slippy]

Keldon Johnson timely scores, hard attacks were important.. set the tone. Also was impressed how he attacked rim drawing contact as per usual. Even more when he drove into Giannis on the move and drew a foul giving him some of his own medicine. Spurs need thst type of play. almost like knockout blow to keep the man tired.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Well, thank God.

Magic number is one. Spurs can basically rest guys the rest of the way and prepare for the play in.

I dunno another year or two and DeRozan may decide to shoot a 3pt shot once every other game. Besides I think it will be cool to track how many straight games he'll go without a 3pt make. We're sitting on about 23 right now. His Spurs record is 42 straight.

Once again Luka gets an opportunity and gets out there with Eeyore-like energy and turns the ball over as soon as he touches it smh.

Tangent: It was weird seeing Lyles on the bench in street clothes laughing with Pop. That was unusual for a player trying to get off the team.

So I guess the bar has been set so low that any former Spurs player gets a video montage tribute upon their return...

I don't remember Roger Mason Jr. getting a thank you tribute at least he had this memorable moment...

Get some thicker Drew Carey glasses so your eye tester will work u unbolded doink. Lonnie hasn't shown crap till recently at end of season. Brynn worked harder than anyone on team and hard work gets rewarded. Also u consider that Pop wanted the 10th/11th pick and Brynn allowed them to accomplish this. He carried the Spurs when they started season without either dj or white and was thrown into pg fire and nobody was complaining bout job he was doing. Yep Pop is hof and they've molded all their players
