Can't believe :lmao

One of the few moments that I can watch the Spurs live on TV and that happens.

If it was a Lakers or Celtics game Stern would have rescheduled so fast that it wouldn't even merit discussion.

In theory, tomorrow in Mexico City would work as well, given the break in the schedule for both teams, but then the league would be deciding to pit its international showcase against its Thursday night TNT showcase. Of course, with the first game of the TNT doubleheader on Thursday night being Knicks/Nets, the league might not mind having a distraction.

RT @Ananth_Pandian The Spurs should send Patty Mills out there to towel wave the smoke away.

The only one ready to play this game is Kawhi, who just needs to attach a filter to his ventilation system.

This comment made my day. Kudos

Smh what a disaster :lol

Chris Duel @ChrisDuel
RT @JerryZgoda Just overheard Spurs doctors say no way to playing in arena tonight, seems teams will push back hard on playing tonight #fb

They could just play in San Antonio tomorrow. Give away free tickets and they'll fill the place with 20,000 Mexicans no problem.

:lol clippaz losing

Thanks alot Stern you idiot....

Game delayed confirmed. Possibly moved to Leavenworth and played tomorrow morning under prison ball rules.

Stern trying to kill the Spurs...

stern should give back the 250k he fined the spurs...

NBA Mexico press manager said that the game will be played, they are waiting for the smoke to dispel.

and NBATV coverage is blacked out now, ol

:lol Funny cuz true tbh.

WTF happened to NBATV

http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/10...a-timberwolves

BTW, why the hell would Parker go back into the building right now?

lol Mexico

NBAtv says generator failure....Still only a delay

Lookin' forward to FkLa's Game Thoughts tbh

You can't script this stuff, tbh.

Wolves pre game on TV talking about the nba expanding to Mexico city. :lmao

Parker playing hero ball already, rushing in to fight the fire all by himself!

Pop and Adelman should just take their teams to the airport and go home. Both teams play 81 games this season.

it was probly the Zetas

if they play later tonight my DVR is going to be 2.5 hrs of smoke and 1 quarter of bball. they need to make the call now one way or another so i know it'll record. quit dragging this out stern.

Stephen Anderson @andersonstevem
Spurs are packing up and seem against playing tonight. No matter what the league says. Good for them. #SpursNation #NBA

Yeah, no shit...I was really looking forward to watching this game. Fuckers.

Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN
Game off. Hearing from multiple people though no official announcement.

Good move Spurs, now I can watch Portland and OKC.

if this was the Heat, Stern would have Seal Team 6 escort them out of the country til future game is resolved.

Why do people type things like "yay! expansion, great idea!!" when something goes wrong? I am not for expansion, I think its stupid for many reasons, but not because an area had a fire. Plenty of stadiums in the US of A have issues (even Spurs have had issues). It's silly.

Up in Smoke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

game cancelled

Well fuck. I was looking forward to this game.

Fuck I finally get to watch the game on tv and this shit happens :lol

Stern will make up this game the day before the playoffs start

What a disaster...

300million dollar brand new arena and the fucking escalator burns out? What a joke.

NBA on ESPN tweeting that they are trying to get ventilators to suck smoke out.

Both the Spurs and Wolves are off until Saturday. Why can't they just play the game tomorrow?

I would be PISSED off if I were a Spurs or T'Wolves player or coach. What a waste of their time...

This is so dumb. Are the Spurs incompetent? Remember when they had a water pipe burst? What about the NFL Super Bowl. America's biggest sports day. There was a massive delay and power outage. How on Earth could you let such an incompetent country host the Super Bowl?!!!!

WTF

I wonder if we'll get a reschedule or just plain canceled.

Or if Stern will order them to play 2 hours from now.

I remember when the Spurs were beating Cleveland by 45 in the 3rd quarter 2 weeks ago :P... 4-0

Just to let you guys know, the game would not be able to be scheduled for tomorrow in the same Arena, since a concert will take place.

What's the latest? Is the game cancelled? Left for an hour or so to run some errands and now I'm hearing they cancelled the game? Thought it was a small controlled fire?

Spurs Win!

The latest is that the Spurs left regardless of what the league is saying.

If there's one thing I love about Pop, it's that he won't stand for Stern's bullshit, one of the few coaches that won't suck his dick.

They did the right thing leaving.
