Splitter practiced today and is game time decision for first Clipper game

Splitter injury also gave Baynes more minutes. Big Banger looks solid now(rebounding/stupid fouls on defense need work.)

Seems like he didn't play in the playoffs last year? Smh at some people.

Its splitter though. Might need to put in a tampon and a pad

Seriously what a fucking pussy

Basically he's not playing.

Really he hope he at least gets the minutes Pop would be tempted to give Bonner. Please Pop, methkc isn't in...so don't give Bonner ANY playoff minutes. I don't even want the fucker in garbage time.

WHo guards Griffin?

Spurs Injury Report For April 18

Please be advised of the following injuries for Sunday’s game at LA Clippers:

Matt Bonner (tightness, right calf) – Questionable

Tiago Splitter (tightness, right calf) – Questionable

Tiago Splitter‏@tiagosplitter·1 hr1 hour ago
in our way to LA! indo pra Los Angeles! #playoffs nba @nbabrasil spurs https://instagram.com/p/1oPUyUs_ol/

Fuck Pop and Tiago if he doesnt play tbh

:lol you idiots are falling for pop's shit hook line and sinker. Dumb sheep. Fools getting exposed for the fools they are :lmao

Griffin better prepare his anus tbh.

I think Splitter will be a go for tomorow. :flag:

He'll play. He's been ready to play since the Phoenix game. Pop is just overly cautious with his players coming back from injury.

But this allows posters to use the word vagina.
This is, important.

Tiago versus Clippers Regular season

Game 1 - Splitter DNP - Spurs win 89-85

Game 2 - Splitter 6pts 2 rebs +3 in 18:30 min - Spurs 125-118... Griffin 22pts *Splitter had a defensive rating of 129 - only player worse Bonner 131
Game 3 - 8pts 1 reb - 9 in 17 min - Clippers 105-85.... Griffin 31pts 13 rebs *Splitter had the lowest Rb percentage on team - Defensive rating 111 team avg 108-
Game 4 - 11pts 1 reb -3 in 16 min - Clippers 119-115... Griffin DNP - Splitter defensive rating 115 Baynes defensive rating 116. Splitter Orating 134 Baynes 139 Baynes outplayed Splitter here easily - 14/4 plus 2...

Needless to say Splitter has done anything that warrants his contract against the Clippers this year. He has been outplayed by Baynes, and only averages 8 points 1 rebound in 17 minutes of action. Would Spurs like to have him, sure, do Spurs need him to win, absolutely not. 1-2 against the Clippers with Splitter in the lineup. 1-0 without him

:tu

It's not even Splitter vs Baynes, though I would take Splitter any day. It's Splitter + Baynes vs Baynes + heavy minutes for Duncan or any minutes for one of Bonner and Ayers.

The way Pop was finnicky in answering to reporters should tell you all you need to know about his status tonight...

not worried about tim. TBH Errors will be fine against Davis. Even with the injury to splitter - we have more depth than they do.

Baynes, Duncan & Boris. I can live with that because it means no Ayres

Regular season games are all about the circumstances: Who was injured/resting? Who had the rest advantage? Who had more motivation?

Statistically, it may not appear that Splitter made much of a difference in the season series, but that's highly unlikely to be the case in a playoff series.

Baynes can't guard mobile, face up fours (obviously, Griffin is also adept with his back to the basket, but he's not stupid; he knows that would be playing into Baynes' hands); Splitter can.

Splitter is precisely the type that gives Griffin trouble, with his combination of length, lateral quickness and decent enough strength.
