LaMarcus Aldridge (right knee soreness), Manu Ginobili (rest) and Kawhi Leonard (return from injury management) are out for tomorrow’s Spurs-Rockets game.
Rockets 128
Spurs 87
And Harden is out for the Rockets so Pop obviously goes full on tank modeQuote:

No time to be resting guys. With Harden out we had a chance to steal this game.
I heard Harden is playing tomorrow
Wipity.
Pop tanking.
Kiwi wanting to come back...

I don't expect anything to come of this, but if the league wants to have credibility with this rest issue, they should slap the Spurs with a significant fine. This undermines the spirit of competition far worse than a bottom feeder shutting down middling veterans to play young players does.
most likely the ugliest game of the season.
Pop is tanking. DJ going to break some rebounding records. Spurs going to break thwir losing margin record .
Well atleast i can plan some holidays in late April or may. 20 years wow
:lol
Time for another moral victory!
Poop blatantly tanking and throwing in the white towel on the season.

Can't wait to watch Fathead score his 6 points in 34 minutes! Hopefully he'll have a good steal and his DBPM will go up despite getting blown by every time
Some of y’all need to find another hobby if the spurs are making you this angry
I wonder if y’all just get pissed at work when you randomly think about basketball, or take it out o your kids or wives or friends. Some of you probably starting to see aussies differently just because Patty is play like shit, pathetic tbh
:toast
I’ve been off on score predictions lately (partially because they reek of homerism despite the suckage). But in honor of having the Klaw back, here we go.
No Harden, so I say 104-92 SPURS
I'm starting to sympathize with Kawhi being soft now...
Seems like Harden is playing tomorrow.Quote:

This is actually a smart decision. This is what I wanted. We would lose this anyways. So let’s not tire ourselves out and lose the winnable game against the Magic the next day. We’re avoiding 2 losses in a row by resting Aldridge to go all out and get a win against ORL before Kawhi returns. This would have been much better if we would have beat OKC though..
Remember guys.. teams have a higher chance of losing to bad teams if it’s the second night of a back to back. Especially if we’re trying hard to beat a team like Houston. Like it or not, this is the best strategy in this situation.
I dont mind it. Play the rookiesQuote:

Very well then...Quote:

I’m not sure what happens if we win the Magic game, but the Jazz and Nuggets both have very winnable games, so likely we stay at 10. Not for long though!
:bang
Why is Ginobili resting? He has a total of 6 points in the last 3 games combined. Send him to Austin, not back home.
Pop saving him so he can play for the Argentina NT over the summer, tbhQuote:

We all new when Timmy was
gone the golden years were over so get used to it. To me I am all about tanking and getting a good draft pick. To be honest Pop has even screwed that up we should have a worse record. Don’t get me wrong this team on a good night can beat anyone but we can not win a seven game serious against the good teams much less the best teams.
We we get a good draft pick trade and Pop and RC grow a pair and don’t resign and trade certain guys then we could be on the right track again
Gotta feel for Lamarcus they forgot to put ice on that sore knee . Could be why hes out.Quote:

Spurs by 20+ tbh
Resting Aldridge was a no-brainer..they wouldn't have a chance against Houston regardless, right now..not only are the Rockets hot, but they'll give 100% against the Spurs every game following last year's historic embarrassment in game 6..
Makes much more sense to save Aldridge for Orlando..can't take anything for granted, at the moment..Orlando has stat-padders like Simmons and Vucevic who will be playing hard tomorrow..
