The Hawks have a deep squad everywhere but at the point. Petteway and Roninson on the wing, with Ashley, Muscala and Tavares on the frontline. This should be the biggest test for Anderson and crew.

Spurs win by 4.

Simmons please.

Many thanks! :flag: By our very presence on this board, we're all pretty dedicated fans. As far as me, I'm a writer and occasional English tutor so I make my own hours.

I like the competition. Having a tournament makes summer league even more interesting than preseason.

Go Spurs!

When we played the Pistons in 05....I was in Afghanistan at the time. I would wake up at like 3 or 4 am to watch the games. I was pretty much worthless the next day...but no way I was going to miss our boys playing in the Playoffs.

:lobt2:

Tiago isn't on the SL team for Atlanta?

No.

Yeah I've stayed up late to watch games in Europe. Seems like it was just 6 or 7 hours in the UK.

Hawks will likely out-rebound us. Hopefully it's not the difference in the game.

:flag:

Hawks by 80+

Anderson will go off, scores 40 tonight

UK is 5 hours ahead of EST, 6 ahead of CST. Where were you in the UK? I used to live in Manchester and also had a writing fellowship in Edinburgh (fantastic cities both).

Expecting 40 points, 14 assists, 8 rebounds and 6 steals from Simmons today.

We going for threepeat. Win Free Agency, Win summer League, win Ring.

10 min

It is on

Game time !

Game time bitches...

Terrible transistion D.

Really weird seeing Richard Sherman play basketball.

Durant missed both...

cheers Bill

Slomo!!!!!!!!!

KA got that jumper wet today

of course someone going through shooting mechanic changes is going to have FT issues

Simmons please!

Eddie with his vintage d

I am almost too nervous to watch... :wow

Little know fact - Kyle Anderson was in "The Burbs"

http://www.gamingmasters.org/data/Me...s_theburbs.jpg

Slomo getting the double team.

Come on dude!!

Ka struggling early

pressure game win or go home

Davies is awful

Bad start for KA

Is Becky serious? Benching Lallane, your best interior defender, for Atkins? :lmao instead of benching Davies who's horrible, she benches Lallane..

I can't believe I'm emotionally invested in a SL team. But really want them to win.

Simmons!!!!!!!!!

Simmons

Simmons!!!

Love you Simmons!

Simmons

Dealing with double teams is the star treatment. Need adjustments from Becky to use him as decoy to be someone else open. He's got to pass.

Atkins is worse than Ayres...

Atkins is the worst.

Nice block!!!!

SLOMO STUFF

Gotta stop fouling guys....

ATL living at the line.

Too many fouls

Just screened Simmons :lmao

Simmons and KA both playing bad on offense

There's the difference between Simmons and Slomo... finishing at the rim with a power move... he's all finesse

Fuck terrible start. KA bricking everything, Simmons w/ two turnovers.... defense fouling everytime.

Spurs suckig

Don't worry guys, Atkins has this

Ugly start. Especially with Simmons and Slomo sucking.

Hawks doubling alot

They're just going at Atkins now, giving him the Nash treatment

Well the OKC offense has been figured out... blitz the pick and roll

Simmons creating but losers like Will Cherry can't hit shots tbh.

season is over...

great pass by simmons there

They have to run the 2-4 screen and roll with Simmons and Slomo so the double isn't an option

Loving the thread auto-update being back. :tu

Simmons and Anderson getting doubled and can't handle it. No stops killing us.

Anderson's inconsistency to hit open 3's will be stressful when he plays with Manu smdh

Anderson and Simmons are getting doubled a lot...

They're moving the ball after the double-team...we're just not hitting the shots.

spurs getting worked early on

Simmons doing a decent job breaking down the D when they double him off the PnR.... guys just arent hitting.

Well hell...

spurs wanna play some blackjack more than win this game. all sluggish from the buffet

run Simmons at the point and have Eddie out there. Zero reason for that loser Will Cherry to be on the court.

Nobody wants to shoot

This big African might be worse than Atkins..
