Seems odd. Every year, they lose. Even against a mediocre team like tonight.

Pop brings the wine, porker brings the ham, diaw brings the croissants. They are fat before every Christmas game.
Yeah, rockets just wanted it more. Spurs didn't match their intensity
Yep, the Spurs played like they thought they could easily win. The Rockets played with a ton of intensity, especially on the defensive end. The Spurs have no one to blame but themselves for this loss.Quote:

Called it in the game thread...
Pop basically giving the middle finger to the league for making him coach on a holiday.Quote:

fuck
the spurs wanted this game badly tbh, especially at the end
the bench didnt show up and 80 something points just wont do it
Last time we lost to the rockets on Christmas was in 2013

We won a title that season. Yeah, I'll be that ol' sport
We always get screwed playing away on Xmas most of the time. Even the sports grind was talking about that the other day. Last year was an exception when we were at home vs Thunder. Fuck the league. Several times have we been defending champs and had to travel for xmas the next year .
They're gutless worms, that's all.
A lot of flying. They normally would have flown to Houston from Minny. Instead they flew home and flew late to Houston...I believe.
It's not a Christmas problem; it's a primetime problem. Spurs are 5-2 on national TV. But they're 1-2 in the biggest games (@OKC, LAC, @Hou). I'm not too concerned. But they do need to figure out how to play their game when the lights are brightest.
Too much eggnog tbh.
Tony said he didn't want to play on Christmas in a postgame interview after the Twolves game (can't say I blame him).
Obviously not yours. There's plankton species with larger members than you.Quote:

Actually, 2 points by chubbs was the demiseQuote:

I almost went to Houston for this game. Glad I decided not to. I did go to the Christmas Day game in 2013 which sucked.
