Game Thread: Spurs @ Wizards — Fri. (4/5) - 6:00/C (2:00am Riga Time)

3rd to last game of the season tonight in Washington. Beli is OUT. Let’s get it.

:flag:

He’ll wear #28.

Must win.
Lets see how we do against a lottery team on the road.

waiting to see Loonie get more minutes today

He’s not wrong :lol

Sounds like Ari za and Jabari Parker are both out as well as Beli for us.

Could see Lonnie getting 20 minutes tonight.

Spurs are 6.5-point favorites tonight.

:flag:

live in area. Sadly a conflict as usually go every year. Wizards just canned gm. May be pumped up. Go Spurs

Go Spurs go "let's get it"

this team just plays laser focused. Throwing the ball out of bounds every 2nd position and giving up lay up after lay up on the other end. :spin

Fun matchup so far between 2 similar-caliber teams(at the moment)..hopefully the Wizards stop giving effort soon..

Shoot the ball Demar

Woke up at 2AM to hopefully watch DMo get some minutes. So nervous, knowing DMo I'm so scared he gonna get benched after 10 seconds of play where he turns the ball over and gives up an open layup in that span... :(

This has all the makings of a bad loss

Dante? wtf

The Spurs play to the level of the competition. I think Austin could give them a run for their money. No heart. No effort. Period.

Spurs on the road are the same quality as this Wizards team, I wouldn't call it playing down..

Cunningham over Lonnie are you kidding me?

Looks like he doesn’t trust Lonnie to fill Marco’s spot.. fucking ridiculous.

0 defense game

Pop really just needs to commit to Jakob in the SL, starting Rudy our defense is worse, Rudy doesn't get the touches and has struggled to produce when left in with the bench, not to mention Jakob has been less productive off the bench with such limited minutes

Jakob started..

Is this a must win for us?

Sometimes I hate Pop. Why the fuck is Cunningham in there?

Did he get early foul or something? I started watching with like 9:30 left in 1st quarter and Gay was in with SL

Pop has to use as many players as possible because we looked like a tired team the last few games and we play early Sunday the following game.

The Wizards commentator just said "Demontay Murray"

Doesn't look like Motiejunas getting any non-garbage time yet. Makes sense I suppose.

Defense blows like always.

The Centerpiece.

Yep

I don't want to say it this early but i guess we're gonna win this game, Wizards desicion making is terrible.

Theres still a lot of time for some scrub to go off on us

Finally playing a team that doesnt even want to win

If Spurs extend this lead, we might get to see DMo tonight.

Has a coach ever done less with more than Scott Brooks?

Man, and I thought Spurs defense was bad :lol

Cavs game gonna be more difficult than this one even though their record says otherwise.

Have to hope the Cavs will deliberately lose the next game in hopes of getting Zion.

Cavs have a 14% chance to get Zion no matter what they do in the next game.

Probably not, as far as tenure is concerned, but Mark Jackson was pretty bad.

Wish the Spurs would play Washington in the first round of the playoffs. ;)

Wish Derozan would hustle the way he is tonight against top tier teams

Glad that we can at least blow these scrubs out tbh. Like others have said though, plenty of time to fuck this up

19 point lead at half. Will start 4th quarter up 7...

Hope Pop chooses to put Lonnie in the rotation over Cunningham for this second half.. Also glad Blake Griffin is back tonight vs Thunder

Go Motor City!!!

Hope they keep it up. I want to see Lonnie again.

Watching the game
The horn sounds
Bill Land says "and Forbes checks out"
I thought wow good I'm happy
Then Land says "and Mills checks in"
And I was sad

Pistons battling hard so far, they need this game more than okc, I'm hoping okc will loose though.

I need that Beal lay up on the back of Forbes who was following his player having no idea where the ball was GIF'D

4 point play, there ya go Bryn!

Bring in Montejunas.

Drew Gooden on the wizards announce said Bertans is a hybrid Matt Bonner

Your really rooting for this guy lol y so? What's it about him bro?

Griffin is shitting on OKC right now. Hopefully he can keep it up and sneak out a victory for us

Mills and Bonner 2.0 can't hit shit

Shouldn't Walker be playing now with this 20 point lead

He has 25 with 2 mins left for halftime and 5 3's.

Unless he goes for 50 he ain't keepin it up.The other Pistons must wake the fuck up.

You never know. He dropped 50 earlier this year

Why on earth is Rudy checking back in...

DMo about to check in!!!

With Beli out tonight he should have been playing earlier. He played the past 2 games when Beli was healthy. Now that Beli is hurt, Pop goes with Dante...???

Walker in and dmo about to get in

Can't believe how bad the Wiz announcers are butchering all the names.

"DeMontay Murray" then he says "Deontay Murray"
"Bertrans"
"Jay-Cob Poetl"

31 and the go ahead 3 to end the half.:clap

If Drummond pulls his head out of his ass they can do it.

D-Mo looks slim and in shape which is good sign

Recovered nicely to get that block too

Poor transition defense by Walker

Dmo with a block, air ball and an offensive foul

DMo with the block! And and offensive foul, and an airball all in less than a minute :clap

WOO HOO! D-MO knocking out peeps, lol!

DMo Olajowon

Scrub...

Nice dish by Walker

nice pass Lonnie

Sick passes by Lonnie

Another assist Lonnie

Lmao there's a ton of Spurs fans in DC

Good pass and cut by Walker and Donatas

Tbh DMo looks good out there in limited minutes

crowd chanting gsg

The Spurs fans in D.C sound almost as good as the Spurs fans at home

Loving the GO SPURS GO chant in D.C.

It's clear as day that Walker is already better than Mills and Forbes

For some reason there's always a huge Spurs contingent in DC, Charlotte and Atlanta. That corridor is full of them

Shudda had DMo all year instead of Gasol. I'm already convinced of that much.

Griffin with 31 points at the half. Pistons leads OKC 66-65

Not sure about Charlotte and Atlanta, but I think the reason there's a good amount of Spurs fans in D.C. because of San Antonio being a military town.
