LET'S BEAT THE PANTS OFF THOSE PANTALOONS! :ihit

[MannyIsGod]

This is great but there's no game today.

[Dex]

This is great but there's no game today.

Oh....huh. Calendars are hard.

NEVERMIND!!!

[Dex]

This game thread is totally legit! So legit, in fact that it had to be posted a day early

[KobesAchilles]

Damn we have to tent out here waiting for the game to start?

[Dex]

Damn we have to tent out here waiting for the game to start?

It'll be worth it, gonna be the game of the century!

[Seventyniner]

Game doesn't start for 22 more hours and Wemby already has 3 blocks.

[Dex]

OK IT'S HAPPENING FOR REAL THIS TIME EVEN IF THE DATE IN THE TITLE IS WRONG! :downspin:

[BatManu20]

Hoping for a competitive loss tbh.

[r0drig0lac]

GSG!!!

[spurraider21]

spurs by 20+ tbh

[Spurs Homer]

Game doesn't start for 22 more hours and Wemby already has 6 blocks- but only 3 are credited!.



fify

[spurs10]

fify Bastards!

[Splits]

please lose

[widowmaker]

Hoping for a competitive loss tbh.


This right here.

[thiste]

I hope Victor has his best game yet!! GO SPURS GO

[r0drig0lac]

hot start

[Strategic]

It’s over

[Knoxxx]

I want to see what the anti-pop sniffers say after we paddle this NYK ass.

[LeBowen]

I want to see what the anti-pop sniffers say after we paddle this NYK ass.

Tbh, Knicks always beat us when we were top contenders, it's only fair.

Good start.

[Strategic]

They introduced Champagnie as 6’9”. He doesn’t look that tall

[r0drig0lac]

Wemby's hurt

[Strategic]

Dammit

[LeBowen]

Jeremy injured Victor, season over.

[poopbox]

Victor no :cry

[scott]

Took Zach a whole 20 seconds to pick up an offensive foul

[baseline bum]

Looks like it was just a knee to knee hit between Victor and Sochan

[Dex]

Yep, Sochan totally took out Wemby :cry

[Rosewood]

Looks like it was just a knee to knee hit between Victor and Sochan Yup. Hit looked pretty hard.

[Dex]

:lmao Collins "coyote"

Dude can't even doodle

[Pauleta14]

Looks like it was just a knee to knee hit between Victor and Sochan

Knee to shin

[baseline bum]

Well shit, looks like Victor is back in the locker room

[baseline bum]

Zollins -7 in 2:19

[Dejounte]

If that results in a more serious injury than what Sengun had, then Wemby’s career will be short tbh

[LeBowen]

Collins in drop coverage is legitimately one of the worst things I've ever seen in the NBA.

[Thomas82]

Well shit, looks like Victor is back in the locker room

I guess we won't see him again tonight or Sunday.

[Leetonidas]

Vic back on the bench now

[Dex]

Wemby back on the bench

[r0drig0lac]

wtf Warriors 16-17 in the house

[baseline bum]

Vic back on the bench :tu

[poopbox]

Victor back on the bench celebrating. My nuts can exit my throat now

[spurraider21]

Victor back on the bench celebrating. My nuts can exit my throat now
My nuts can also exit your throat now

[baseline bum]

My nuts can also exit your throat now

WTF are you sixty years old?

[scott]

Nice first quarter, but we give up yet another buzzer beater. We surely have set a record for buzzer beaters allowed this season.

[scott]

Wemby back in, Sochan no longer needs post game security

[TekXX]

So Victor is fine? Doesn't mean Popatank won't sit his arse for 2 weeks

[Thomas82]

So Victor is fine? Doesn't mean Popatank won't sit his arse for 2 weeks

He just got a block and a basket, so that's a good sign.

[poopbox]

Victor bringing the ball up really has the knicks out of sorts on defense. Going to be a problem for teams when we get some real talent on this team. Bigs are not use to having to guard all the way up the floor.

[Pauleta14]

Victor lost his mojo on his 3s

[Mal]

No, Spurs no

[LeBowen]

Wemby is actually shitting on them, lmao.

[scott]

Triple double watch tonight?

[TekXX]

Are the Spurs getting better or are these teams over the season.

[TheGreatYacht]

Is this 2014 again? :cry

[Pauleta14]

Are the Spurs getting better or are these teams over the season.

Little bit of both

Spurs are better but opponents on the road and probably not as ready as they would for a contender.

They also smashed us in NY

[Dex]

WEMBY SMASH!! :ihit

[TheGreatYacht]

Frazier just said Wemby is Kareem, Dream, Russell, and Lebron all in one

[Pauleta14]

Those type of fouls (on Sochan) need to disapear. it's ridiculous

[rascal]

Blazers and Hornets both losing big. Both closing in on the Spurs.

[TheGreatYacht]

Knicks should hopefully get back in it here during this Collins spurt

[poopbox]

Keldon and Collins have to be the dumbest defensive duo in spurs history.

[poopbox]

After getting easy dunks and layups, soon as Victor comes in the knicks completely abandon the paint.

[TheGreatYacht]

We’re gonna get the 7th overall pick, and it ain’t gonna be Toronto’s… aren’t we?

[LeBowen]

If we had a servicable backup big, would've been a +30 blowout.

[Pauleta14]

Walt Frazier marvelling at Victor

The difference with his game at MSG is massive

[SPURt]

I’ve been watching and ignoring the box score, I felt like Brunson wasn’t playing great and he has 21 lol!

Nice half of ball from the Spurs, when they play at their ceiling they’re a pretty good team

[rankingtear]

We need a wing stopper 1-3 defender.

[poopbox]

what is cedi doing. He completely turned away from Brunson:lmao

[LeBowen]

That's the team we're used to.
Two wide open threes missed by Tre, Julian driving into three defenders and even Victor missing a couple of point blank shots.

[Tyronn Lue]

9-0 run. Let's not get the ball in the paint to Victor, let's keep heaving up threes.

[Pauleta14]

I can't wait for a proper PG

[poopbox]

now that the knicks are playing real defense all our players have turned back into the scrubs they have been all year

[Tyronn Lue]

Knicks showing this team what firepower looks like.

[Pauleta14]

Brunson is unconscious :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

Brunson keeps diving at Victor’s legs. Hip check this little fucker

[Proxy]

fuckin brunson diving at vic's legs

[LeBowen]

Back to usual level.
This is why Tre can't start next season.
He's got nothing to offer against good teams.
Devin also nowhere to be seen when some points are desperately needex.

[Strategic]

Brunson goin for 60

[thiste]

Can he fucking miss?

[Tyronn Lue]

Devin is that dude that has to go to the bathroom just before the check gets there, and you don't see him until after it's been paid.

[TheGreatYacht]

When was the last time Poop double teamed someone that was on fire? When has it ever worked out for us to play a player this hot with single coverage?

[poopbox]

I'll be so glad when Keldon and Collins are off this team. They just exude loser energy.

[poopbox]

When was the last time Poop double teamed someone that was on fire? When has it ever worked out for us to play a player this hot with single coverage?

Thats not who we are

[spursparker9]

Brunson going for 70 :rollin

[Tyronn Lue]

Brunson is on a heater. Curious to see how he does when it matters.

[KobesAchilles]

Anyway we can sign or trade for Brunson :lol

[spursparker9]

Anyway we can sign or trade for Brunson :lol

Need to sign his father first

[TekXX]

Spurs still have a lead and not down by 10 after the knicks run? They are improving

[TheGreatYacht]

This is a dirty fucking team. Step under that Brunson thug’s foot!

[Tyronn Lue]

Victor going to have a relatively quiet 30 and 16. Crazy shit.

[r0drig0lac]

ball movement...

[Tyronn Lue]

9-0 run right back at you.

[Pauleta14]

The handles after the steal from Victor ... wow

[Dejounte]

This is how nice Wemby’s future playoff teams will look like.

[TheGreatYacht]

Brunson trying to draw a charge on Victor at half court and then Hart shoving him like an OLinemen

End Brunson’s career

pop trying to lose with julian still in

[Leetonidas]

Knicks on a run with Victor about to be subbed out

[Tyronn Lue]

Brunson with 50. This is the best of all possible scenarios, Spurs will probably lose but have an exciting game and Victor gets big stats to close out his ROY campaign.

[Degoat]

I don’t understand why the spurs make zero adjustments in games, teams star players go off on us way too much

[Tyronn Lue]

I don’t understand why the spurs make zero adjustments in games, teams star players go off on us way too much
You can polish a turd, still a turd.

No one should complain, the Spurs were going to be blown out tonight, probably not hit 90pts, etc. At least it's a close game at this point.

[poopbox]

This fucking bum Collins. This dude is on every single player in the leagues highlight reel :lmao

[KobesAchilles]

It’s little shit that gives games away. Vassell needs to run to the ball on a pass not away from the ball. Champ needs to kick out to the wide open man for the corner 3 instead of launching a horrible air ball layup. And some guard needs to stop the ball on the fast break and maybe it wouldn’t have been a wide open 3 on the other end

[Russo21]

Sochan is wildy inconsistent. You think he's getting somewhere and then then for the next week you wonder if the good game was a fluke

[Strategic]

Career night for a chucker like brunson. That’s saying something.

[poopbox]

I don’t understand why the spurs make zero adjustments in games, teams star players go off on us way too much

The head coach sucks and doesn't understand how modern basketball is played. If you replaced Pop with the corpse of Jimmy Hoffa the spurs would make better adjustments.

[Strategic]

Pop just wants the wine.

[TekXX]

oh lord what's happening

[Pauleta14]

LMAO Pop begging for a tech and the ref refusing to give it to him :lol

[LeBowen]

Fuck these refs.

[Leetonidas]

Vassell is such a fucking chucker man

[Strategic]

Gonna see if the Spurs have a finisher tonight.

[Kurgan]

Vassell is such a fucking chucker man

And Soshit being invisible all night

[scott]

Finally Devin with some aggression to the basket in crunch time. Been waiting for this.

Refs are turrible though.

[scott]

We're about to get skullfucked by Brunson, aren't we? :lol

[SPURt]

Nice free throws after that awful missed 3 by Wemby

[LeBowen]

Tre obviously has no business being out there against star guards, but holy shit at just leaving him to his own devices without any help.

[Proxy]

did jeremy get hurt or something

[r0drig0lac]

OT

[ace3g]

OT

[Tyronn Lue]

Pop's worst nightmare, a meaningless OT game just minutes from his house.

[scott]

Good to see Pop in top form, screaming at boneheaded players to do their jobs at the end of the game.

[SPURt]

And Soshit being invisible all night
Spurstalk is undefeated with the nicknames :rollin

[spursparker9]

OT. Brunson has the chance to drop 70 now

[BatManu20]

Come on Knicks, bring it home tbh.

[MultiTroll]

Total overplay by Spurs D, they pulled that chit all the time in the 1st half of the season.

Lucky the Knick guy bricked the wide open trey.

[thiste]

The point was just to get the ball off Brunson's hands, and it worked.

His highlight of the night was almost injuring our franchise player

[scott]

Both teams with some serious bricklaying in the last 3 minutes

[thiste]

OT. Brunson has the chance to drop 70 now

And Victor 40

[scott]

Did Mitchell Robinson just reaggravate his knee? Feel for the guy.

40/20 game for Vic

[Tyronn Lue]

40/20 rookie vs a really good playoff team.

[r0drig0lac]

40/20 for the future GOAT.

[scott]

4th player in NBA history with a 40/20/5 game according to my quick search

Apparently Elgin Baylor did 40/20/5 four games in a row in 1961 :lol

Can't have Brunson over Melo, tbh.

Great entertainment, pulled it off despite some really questionable stretches.

Congrats Wemby on the career high, looking forward to many more. Brunson is the best Knick in a long time, good for them

[Tyronn Lue]

JB took about 50 shots to get 61 points.

[ginobilized]

Helluva win!

What happened to Sochan? Is he injured? In Pop's doghouse?

[Robz4000]

Wemby tbh.

[timtonymanu]

What a game by Brunson though, almost single-handedly beat us.

Yeah, they’re gonna be my playoff team this year. Love how hard they play even though they desperately need to get Brunson some help. Getting OG back will help.

Awesome win by the Spurs tonight. They took the punch and stood tall, which is definitely something they were don’t doing at the start of the year.

[Raven]

very fun game, team is really clicking

[SPURt]

Wait, did Sochan get hurt? Missed the second half.
Left ankle soreness apparently

[MultiTroll]

:lol Spurs didn't need a 3pt shot


Devin, ill advised chucker threes in the clutch. JFC with this guy
With Victor wide farking open just above the FT line on the roll. With 10 feet of clear space to keep rolling to towards the rim, shoot, or pass to another wide open Spur as the Knicks had double teamed.

Love to get a screen shot of that. Sniffers would have some gawd awful justification.

[Splits]

what a disaster

[Robz4000]

Left ankle soreness apparently

Welp

[Degoat]

After a performance like that by wemby, you can’t tell me the front office wont feel pressure to look to improve the team quickly in the off-season

[Tyronn Lue]

Left ankle soreness apparently
He and Victor bumped knees or something on that assist to Sochan before the cut under the basket.

[Budkin]

Damn that was a hell of a game!

[CGD]

After a performance like that by wemby, you can’t tell me the front will feel pressure to look to improve the team quickly in the off-season

You think they’ll just continue to build through the draft a few more years?

[Tyronn Lue]

what a disaster
Maybe not. Lottery isn't smoking hot this year, and maybe some free agent sees this and wants to be part of it.

[Degoat]

You think they’ll just continue to build through the draft a few more years?

Nope typo lol I mean they gotta improve quickly!

[CGD]

what a disaster

Spurs fan: this draft is terrible, trade both picks!

Also Spurs fan: winning like this is terrible! Now we won’t be in position to draft generational megastar Rob Dillingham!

[John B]

Great win with the young team fighting the come back and rewarded the win. I want the L but I could live with it :lol

The signs are there for a potential leap. We are murdering teams on assists most games. Some of our up and down young players went on the road and scrapped and have been playing more consistently since the RRT. The challenge was having such a young team in a grown man’s league, you don’t have a realistic expectation of a lot of wins when you are the youngest team in the league.

[Pauleta14]

Let's be fair, the BS jump ball violation was key in the end

wtf was that? First time I see that in 20 years :lol

You still don’t get it…

First with ur obsession of number of assits, that probably was high as last season (just a guess tbh) and is mainly linked to lack of talent that requires more ball movement to create open shots vs iso / talent.

Second you again miss the main issue that is the personnel. Age/inexperience is just an extra handicap. But the talent isn’t there however long you wait. Tre Jones or Champagnie, for a good game here and there shouldn’t be starting a game or having that much PT

Let’s enjoy the win but big picture nothing changes much, only good thing is those stat lines can only put pressure on PATFO to be active next summer

[Proxy]

This teams needs to change 4/5 of its roster for that.

[Pauleta14]

Spurs aren't tanking, they are just bad

This.

Pop really meant what he said in pre season press conference (« this season is about winning … ») for all the doubts we had, those last few games really don’t leave anymore place for those…

It’s actually scary how badly PATFO evaluated this roster when u think about it

As for Sochan’s experiment, it wasn’t a way to « soft tank » and help him work on his handles amd playmaking, it was just because Pop knows Tre shouldn’t be a starter and hoped Sochan’s defense would compensate his offense.

Same goes for the bench that kept being improvised and not anticipated properly…

Now add the fact that nobody, PATFO included had anticipated how good Wemby would be and the big picture is even scarier and unflattering…

They’re lucky Wemby hides their incompetence tbh

[exstatic]

Let's be fair, the BS jump ball violation was key in the end

The last out of bounds call on the Spurs was clearly off Mitchell Robinson. These things tend to even out.

Did you watch the game? Wemby was the only Spurs player doing anything in the second half. They would have lost by 20 without him. This team still sucks, Pop still sucks, they still need at least two starters and three bench players to be anywhere close to a competent team (assuming Wemby is not a top 5 player next year, which is possible, i guess, but simply a waste). A couple of draft picks are not going to help. Rookies are almost never net positive players, and this draft is worse than most.

I wasn't getting that deep with what I was saying. I'm primarily talking about the emotional mood swings of comments from game to game. It's just funny.

[Biggems]

that was an exciting game. we blew a comfortable lead, they took the lead, we took it back and held on barely. Brunson and Wemby put on an absolute show.

Please send Tre some aloe vera plants...he will need them to aid in his recovery of the absolute burn that Brunson gave him. Tre may be in ICU for a few weeks after that game. He entered the game looking like Dennis Johnson and came out looking like Dennis Schroder.

I have to give props to Robinson. He was basically playing on 1 leg, but was out there battling and helping to keep the Knicks alive. He showed a ton of heart and passion. I hope that our guys saw that and learned something.

I love that little move and smirk after Wemby hit that late 3. I think it would make an absolutely great meme. Of course, nothing tops the meme of Duncan being all gangsta'd out watching Dwight exit the floor.....

[Spurs Homer]

Let's be fair, the BS jump ball violation was key in the end

wtf was that? First time I see that in 20 years :lol

not really, that also happened in a few games this year and the knicks also stole the tip in the OT tipoff…


the ref releases the ball and the player tips it while ball is still - on the way up

it was a legit call

One thing I have noticed over the last two seasons.....Our guys can shoot lights out for a quarter or even a half, but then they disappear. We do not have that guy who can light it up for the entire game. Vassell is the closest thing we have to that, but he is still a bit streaky.

Other teams seem to have 1 or 2 guys that are just absolute assassins from the perimeter. Night in and night out, all game long, they are just snipers, especially when they play against us. For some reason, when they see SA on the schedule, they bring their HOF ability.

We definitely need 2 guys, one starter and one off the bench, who can come in and just be a sniper.

Knicks can't say anything. They know that 1st banner up there is on missing posters in their area code.

This teams needs to change 4/5 of its roster for that.

You over estimate the other teams. Only Boston looks like a historically formidable team, such as what could have competed with a prime Spurs team of the past.

The biggest thing that annoys is the percentage of wide open 3 PT shots we miss. That seems like the main thing separating the Spurs from a consistently legit NBA team.

Spurs aren't tanking, they are just bad

Literally what I've been saying all year long.

:lol the tank squad
