OP is an OG, tbh.

Rotator cuff? Just like Patty .



Nick Young, you stole one from us...IMO our old Argentinian can beat you one on a 1qtr - game Mano a mano.. :D


:flag:

No tats on the right arm....strictly for buckets.

I often wonder how many people who debate basketball points here on Spurstalk don't have League Pass....
That's one of the reasons so many here are so influenced by ESPN Sportscenter highlights.

Parker just got embarrassed on national tv by a rival point guard. He'll be looking to make a point tonight by trying to score as much as possible on a shitty Lakers team. LA has some of the worst PG defense in the league so TP will probably have a decent showing. Parker apologists will use this as an example that "Tony's still got it".

Duncan looked tired yesterday. Ideal night to get him some rest seeing as we're playing one of the worst teams in the league.

You're so eager to criticize him that you make excuses ahead of time just in case he does play well.

Just making a prediction. Perfect environment for Tony to finally have a good game.

I hope all three PGs play, and play well.

:cry just win motherfuckers :cry

So did Chicago tbh, and we all know how that turned out...

Funny. When I look up "damage control" in the dictionary, I don't see "prediction".

And for the record I honestly don't know what to expect. TP showed his speed on maybe 2 or 3 plays last night. I don't understand why Pop let's him keep walking the ball up the court. All trolling aside, I see no repeat if TP cannot return to semi-dominance in the paint.

Here's to his health.

I'm going tonight so goddammittt, they better win. Last two games I've been to have been L's (Detroit & Memphis 3OT). Would have been three L's but I had to sell my OKC tix on Christmas. No Swaggy P bullshit going off on the Spurs, please.

You deserve a W! Lord that Pistons was sickening, kind of like the last time we played Los Fakers!

Anyone going to get rest? Want to see more Jgreen.

This season isn't even exciting to me, tbh.

Wesley Johnson or Jeremy Lin or one of these other scrubs will go off and make this game competitive, I'm sure.

No reason for Timmy to play this game tbh.

:flag:

6 home games in a row....need to start it off with a W tonight.

Oooh yeah....stay healthy.

What's wrong with Splitter?

:lmao Bonner starting

Welcome to *the season after*.

It's always like this. How can you get up for games after such a gauntlet through the playoffs?

Don't worry, things pick up in April/May.

My mind says Spurs win easy, but my gut is starting to feel this will be a trap game.

lol NBA starter Matty Bonner... Fabbs gonna be loving this

Did anyone else see Parker making Kawhi laugh? :lol

If we let the Lakers score more than 20 points by halftime I consider this game a loss.

Bonner starting means Pop is still pissed at Splitter and Diaw's effort, tbh.

Timmy should be abusing Sacre's ass all night....

Duncan is playing again? Really?

:lmao @ these lakers having that 15x champions or whatever tag in their jerseys

Why is League Pass showing the game through camera angles, rather than through the TV broadcast?

Is anyone else having a really strange tv cast? No scores, no commentary and the camera zooming in and out. I have International League Pass. What the hell is going on?

TF am I watching?

Finally it corrected

There, now it's back to the regular telecast. That was weird.

Ahh, back to normal :bobo

I know links are not allowed, but this looks like an emergency, tbh... Spurs telecast here:

http://nbaliveonline.tv/san-antonio-...ive-streaming/

I'm not sure who Jordan Clarkson is.

I think he was the runner up on American Idol last year.

damn Gino gotta make that

Kawhi the BEAST

glad you guys got the telecast back to normal. My league pass has been working fine all game.

Kawhi with the KD move

How many times has Tony been blocked this year? Gotta be a career high.

I guess Tiago lost his starting spot for being a massive pussy so far this season...

Becky Hammon just blew a bubble.

Hater thread in 3, 2, 1...

Nice 1st Q Timmy....

lol Kiwi taking Swaggy P's cookie

Sloppy P

Kiwi taking MVswaggyP's cookie :lmao

Baynes-Splitter? This is going to get ugly...

:wow

gotta slam that Tiago

I want to worry and act dramatic but I know what this team is capable of when healthy and clicking. Losses are like meh.

FaggyP meet Kawhi

The lead is nice, but let's not choke it.

Tony trying his best against dleague competition.

Pop has made some strange decisions in this game already:
1. Starting Bonner over Splitter
2. Playing Baynes and Splitter together in the 2nd unit
3. Not playing Boris Diaw
4. Choosing CoJo over Mills as the backup PG

It's the guy from UK Top Gear

So, is Kobe capable of lasting a full season anymore? Last 3 seasons say "no".

Last game was pretty worrying, but there's a lot of time to right the ship.

Baynes playing better than Tiago right now. :(

Banger looking good early....great sign.

take gino out, rest the big 3

I do not understand why pop doesn't put KY in more P&R situations!

Really interesting that Pop has elected to keep Diaw's ass glued to the bench. Is he sending a message? :lol

Cojooooo

CoJo corner 333333333333333

Danny, king of the fly-by's

Suddenly Nick Young is efficient against us. Of course.

2 for 1

Should've scored there but whatev

terrible finish to the 1st quarter... sit everybody

31-15.....I'll take it.

:bobo

I wish we get some garbage time midway into the third for some J Green time

Put the great Jgreen in tbh

:lmao Big Banger bout to get benched for the rest of the year
