I would have liked Leonard to start but I guess they want to ease him in.

Pop should start Jax. Now we have Manu, Jax and Kawhi off the bench. It looks like Kawhi will play just 8-10 minutes

fckn its takin its time for tippoff

Oh not this shit again... We have Jax, there's not reason to start the terrible Neal-Green combo...

How to make sure Austin Rivers get his career high vs the Spurs by Pop.

Finally Spurs call on ILP

Even if he think KY is not ready, why not start Manu at the 2 at least to balance things out...

Not like we don't have another very competent playmaker coming off the bench...

He plays bad next to Parker. Manu/Jax/Kawhi would be better

Oh MAMA, them Silver Dancers!!

Vasquez going for career high over Neal...

Would be cool to get some calls on our own court... that was such a blatant offensive foul.

Leonard at the table already though!

TD forgot what sport he was playing for a sec, tbh.

Tim, don't be dumb.

He's a better passer than most PGs in this league TBH. :lol

Looking terrible early.

Sean...."tragic" lol

Two days off rust *sigh*

Wow, what a shit start for both teams.

Three blocked shots already.....

Parker still missing layups?

OMG! this game is a disaster for both teams...what are they doing?

Timmeh

There you go Tim, give it to your point guard.

our defensive stats are increasing by the minute!

Weird ass game already

Spurs look a LOT more energetic.

Lol, we have two centers who can run a fast break with no help from guards.

Tragic, again.

:lol Austin Rivers taking 5 steps

Austin Rivers averages 8 ppg on 36% shooting in 28 minutes. Biggest bust in the last 5 years.

:wow Danny Green open court layup




"The Next TD" has been horrible so far, tbh.

Never understood why Monty has such a hard-on for Rivers.

Whos that guy....... oh _anny Green.

Defense looking good

Green made a layup????? OMG

Davis looked much better in the opener against us.

Kawhi time !,

the Twin towers are playing well and controlling the paint can't wait to see how good defesivly these guys can be with Kawhi in the lineup.

It's for merchandise sake I believe he trademarked his unibrow or something like that.

TD/Splitter played great.

Spurs will get up by 20 and then give him the rehab rotation minutes

Tim/Tiago chemistry continues to impress.

Down to 3? C'mon.

Mason is still in the NBA? O_O

Reminds me a bit of Adam Morrison:

Defense fell apart..

Got damn, Diaw, you had a wide open layup.

Hit. Your. Shots.

This lineup sucks.....

Ugh Diaw. It's to the point where I hate seeing him on the court now.

Damn, 12-0 run for the Pelicans!

Lol getting raped on the boards...

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Manu tres!

TD/Splitter lineup was owning them. As soon as that lineup was off the floor they caught up.

I blame jackson's subpar play for their run.

diaw serves no purpose when theres 3 other playmakers on the court

Since Diaw in the game, Hornets 12-0 run

Great pass Splitter.

Great pass from Splitter!

lol Sean.

Didn't know Anthony Mason had joined the Hornets.

A lead's a lead. But the Spurs shouldn't have allowed them to cut it to that much.

Great big man rotation. Start Tim/Tiago. Use Boris to give Tiago a brief rest. Have Tiago/Boris anchor the 2nd unit, using Bonner sparingly as needed.

tiago is a totally different player this season

Pretty random dispersal of blame, tbh.

since he's starting, splitter confindence is sky high. I love it

There's clearly something wonrg with the rotation, completely unbalanced stuff.

Diaw Splitter has never been good on the boards.

Mason 1st shot was a long 2, but they gave a 3, WTF

Has Kahwi checked in yet?

Not really. He hasn't done anything to help the Spurs, tbh. So far, Manu and Splitter are carrying the bench.
