Game 19: Spurs vs Wolves: Wed. Dec 4, 2013 8:30 PM in Mexico City (game postponed)

Stern is going to be calling for Spurs banned from the NBA after this lol

This just in: Stern fines Pop $500,000 for not playing his starters. :lol

Game officially off.

Yep, NBA.com has it cancelled.

fuuuuuuuucccccccckkkkkk, was really looking forward to this game

Well shit. I was looking forward to this game.

Hopefully they just play tomorrow in Minnesota, neither team plays for the next 2 days.

:hat:hat:hat:convertib:convertib

Your right. Soccer sucks. I personally prefer it's more exciting brother football.

The Spurs are the equivalent of Barcelona F.C.

Anyone who makes the argument for why the Spurs play a beautiful brand of basketball is basically making the argument why Football is known internationally as the beautiful game!

Apparently teams headed to the airport... game will be rescheduled for a later date...

Dammit...... I've been looking forward to watching this game. On my birthday. Only to have that situation take place. Sigh, what a birthday. :depressed

Good, glad they are all coming home tonight.

Dang, there's alot of racists up in here.

Last year after the Boston Marathon bombings the game between Celtics and Pacers was cancelled and both teams played only 81 games, is that a possibility in this case?

Just give the Spurs a W and move on....:lol

The last time a game was canceled (Boston vs. Pacers, due to the Marathon event), the game was not rescheduled.

Hope they make it and don't get jacked by the Zetas.

Gregory Popovich @FakeCoachPop
Your move Jason Kidd.

NBA.com now reporting it as "postponed" and not canceled. Game will be played at the Target Center at a later date.

Just got home, guess I didn't miss much huh...

It's possible, but that game was scheduled for April 15th and the season ended on April 17th.

Can't wait to hear some of the players reactions to this, and Pop's reaction especially...

Burrito machine blew up?

To be fair, these Mexicans are just begging for racist remarks in this situation. All they had to do was prepare the arena for one NBA game, and they fucked it up. Spurious correlation? Yes. Fun to make "dumb Mexican" jokes? Hell yes.

My guess is Pop will be pretty gracious and not say anything to insult a country and pour salt in the wound. Pop is outspoken about the NBA, but when it comes to delicate things like this he normally takes a pretty understanding route.

They don't actually eat burritos in Mexico, well maybe only in some parts in Northern Mexico but it is not common. That was a California creation so you can throw that dumb stereotype out the window.

It's an electrical accident. Dumb racists are dumb.

Good news tonight: Clippers, Rockets, and Nuggets all lost...:tu

So, basically the Spurs win without having to play...I like it! :hat

How long to begin the damn game?

These faggots burned the carnitas? Has the game been cancelled yet?

Of course, that's why I called it a spurious correlation. However, human psychology is not logical. It relies on shortcuts and biases. So when an isolated incident like this occurs, people will associate the two variables, resulting in "racist" remarks. I'm just saying you should expect it.

Yeah, like they don't have things interfering with games in the U.S. like Malice in the Palace or...oh yeah, the FUCKING Alamodome sprinklers incident in '94.

Actually, it's more like we just lost a chance to have a 42nd regular season home game because of this and now have to go to Minny later on...so not happy about that. Oh well, we'd fuck the Wolves up anywhere any ways.

To be fair, outside of a few true racists, ST just rips on everything pretty equally. They rip on Steve Nash as much as any other player regardless of color.

Hell, ST makes fun of LakaLuva and Caprisun_Man more than anyone and they are white as snow.

This is typical Mexico though, tbh...

I'm not even surprised.

Not saying I don't expect it. I'm just saying that status quo racist remarks are dumb. Doesn't your profile say "the status quo sucks"?

Don't take things so serious, it's a fucking message board. Half the racist remarks are probably coming from hispanics and you're the only one sitting here getting trolled.

I owned the fact that Mexican jokes are funny, while simultaneously explaining how racism is based on logical fallacies. The best of both. :)

People being way too fucking serious and butthurt in this thread, tbh...

Too many trompos, hot dog venders, and bs lol

Since Mexico was a FAIL, the Spurs should come here to Hawaii and play a game. First game of next season?

Looking at Spurs, Wolves and target center calendars, a possible day for this game to be played would be January 20th.

Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN
Also, can't verify this, but I'm told that smoke likely contained traces of cynide and arsenic. So, yeah, I'm probably gonna die in the D.F.

Think he's joking...

The fans are going to get reimbursed. Will they schedule the game again in Mexico?

They could but I think they will go with playing it at Minnesota (this game was a Wolves "home" game).

Belli trying to get some of the Mexico City ass, sexting it up.

Too bad this game couldn't be played. I was interesed in the crowd's reactions. I assume we'd get the majority of the support but Rubio being Spanish may have gotten a lot of support too. Would've been a cool game to watch.

Anyway, I guess we're going to have to go to Minnesota at a future date now to make it up. NBA fails again. Least they didn't try to put it on ESPN or TNT. You know ESPN would never live that shit down if they paid for the rights to air it and it didn't happen.

Former colony, there's a rich history of rape, killing and pillaging from way back when... then you have certain Spaniards not really being too fond of brown people, tbh...

AFAIK, it's not that big of a deal, but they don't have the same rapport they have with latin countries...

ATX Spur should register in jungle.jaguars.com :lol

Do the Spurs get the money spend during trip back?

Maximum Sports @MaxSportsSA
Spurs cancel practice today because of travel delays.

Greg Simmons @GregSimmonsKSAT
Spurs are just now getting ready to leave Dallas after spending the night on the plane waiting for fog to lift in SA and new crew to arrive.




Greg Simmons @GregSimmonsKSAT
Spurs are finally home. Charter landed at SAT

Welp, that sucks

I never understand with a chartered flight why they just can't get off the plane and get a hotel (in this case in Dallas) for the night.

Trip went as bad as possible without a loss or injury, I guess.

I hope the crappy rest does them some good

lol... 14 pages in the thread of a game that did not happen

So is the next game now Game 19?

NBA TV PROBABLY had something to do with this..their hatred of the Spurs knows no bounds..OMG THEY HATE THE SPURS
