Game Thread: Spurs @ Hornets -- Sat. (11/25) - 6:00/C (2:00am Riga Time)

Back at in Charlotte tonight after a 2-day break to take on the 8-10 Hornets who are playing on a b2b, having lost a tough one last night to the Cavs by 1-point. We're well-rested and they should be tired, no excuses for us not to beat them on the road. Let's get it.

MVP looking like a body builder out here. :wow

Green has to work his magic on Kemba ...

:flag:

:flag:

Go Spurs!
Get that W tonight!

Below .500 team aka Fatty Mills, Rudy Gay, and Fathead showcase night :lol

Hornets are only 8-10 overall but 7-2 at home and Batum is back. Typical trap game.

As long as 50Mills dont let the other PGs go nuts we should win this easily :flag:

Good point. Hopefully their guys logging some heavy minutes last night will help though. Kemba and MKG played almost 40 minutes each, the rest of their core guys all over 30 minutes.

:lol never fucking fails

Expect those faggots raybies and bklynspurmsfan to fluff up PATFO for building a team that can go toe-to-toe with the Hornets

Hornets are an easy team to beat, tbh.

Spurs lose a close one imo. Kemba is too much for the Spurs.

:flag:

Loser shot by Aldridge.

I wish our guys would stop leaving their feet and making dangerous passes. Such a simple fundamental thing you're taught at a young age

Danny dribbling makes me sick.

Why does Anderson always do that crap...lol

Pau is getting some good looks man

Nice pass from Rudy there. Bench has to play well since the starters have been pretty crappy overall

Hilarious Spurs shooting 10%

Verde with the drive and a layup! Awesome

And still in it. I'll take it cause they're getting some good looks. Plus been good regarding turnovers

Oh man. Bacon was cooking last time we played these guys

Murray scares me more.

Gay is rebounding well and Pau had an easy put back on his offensive board. Didn't even look at the basket lol

Ugly basketball capped by an aimless last possession.

Yea! 22%

Well that quarter sucked. Forbes and Manu visibly frustrated on the sidelines after possession.

First team to 75, wins.

Missed the first quarter, what's the story of the game so far?

You ever see an abortion in person?

Monafuco confused MCW for Marvin Williams. Lol What a hack.

Early entry by Davis.

Why play Forbes if he's not hitting anything, Paul's defense on Lamb is much more needed.

Charlotte shooting 22% and outscoring the Spurs

Patty!

Like watching an over-40 game at the Y.

There you go Kyle. Stay aggressive.

Hell no

If the Spurs could have one person get hot from three they could prolly win. If it's this close at the end they have no chance, however.

So little energy and crowd noise that it's like watching a closed workout.

No chance? I'd be happy if it's close. Seem to be better in closer games vs having a lead

Sweet pass from Kyle!

Watching from Madrid!

GSG!

Badass Pass Kyle

:lol Howard is hot garbage

He missed that lefty layup after he stared at his left on his and one earlier. Never got why these guys stare at their off hand. You're in the NBA, you should be able to score with your off hand, it shouldn't be something you celebrate lol

Rudy having a nice bouncback game

Kyle looking gooood

Kemba Walker will destroy the Spurs if it's close per par.

Jealous. My favorite city. :toast

Andersom is the best player on the court.
That says it all.

So offensive... to the eyes

Sean: I don't think Manu has had a bad outing this year. :rolleyes

Meh. Last game vs us, he had 13 points on 12 shots. He's sitting on 5 now on 4 attempts. Our guys are defending well. He's not as scary as you're making him out to be tbh, especially if we're executing defensively

HOLY FUCK!!!

less than 30 points allowed, that's insane.

In a close game he's been one of the Spurs' scariest opponents. They've been lucky in the past since Parker has roasted Charlotte just as often.

The Hornets are my home team so I watch a lot of their games. You overrate Kemba. Kemba is a chucker who shoots horrible percentages. He's definitely not someone to fear in a close game considering the Hornets have lost a bunch of close games with him missing the game tying or game wining shot this season and in past seasons. He tends to miss shots in the clutch when guarded by taller defenders.

I'm talking strictly against the Spurs, and I've seen him hit tough shot after tough shot in close games against the Spurs. Difference in the past is the Spurs had Parker and, more recently, Kawhi to do so as well. Not so tonight.

Idk about one of the scariest. I know the guy is talented, but that's not a Curry/Harden type player of there. He can be slowed, and has been in the 6 quarters we've played then this season, without our best defender.

I think you guys paint a fairly clear picture. Thanks. Fortunately, the second quarter was much better.

ppl dont realize murray actually plays good defense, and his length bothers opposing point guards

Kyle looking better and better.

He definitely has great size for his position. Doesn't always utilize it , but we've seen glimpses. Gotta use that wing span

Patty with the hustle and the three! Nice.

Patty's shooting has been down, but he seems improved in terms of running the sets out there and his delivery on some of those passes.. also keeping his dribble alive in traffic as well, seems like something no one else does on this team.

RIP Kemba

Kemba ran into a train.

Sean is almost as big a homer as Clyde Drexler and Calvin Murphy for the Rockets.

(those are very damning words in case you didn't know)

kemba with a fully deserved torn acl... can't go around a screen with those motions..

Yeah, Clyde and Calvin are a droolsome duo.

Dam that pass by Patty. Thought he was going to Pau. Beautiful

Sweet ball movement.

And then Kyle!

Kyle steal and dunk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I studied in Spain (Santander) for a summer about 15 years ago so it's been a long time, but it's my wife's first time.

Barcelona was absolutely wonderful. No issues with what's currently going on politically if that's what you mean. Amazing city with beautiful people.

That's gif worthy stuff there...

Holy FUCK a Kyle dunk and he even gorilla pumped it like David light :wow

Starters came out with much better focus.
