Lol u dumb

Bench is solid per usual

Granted Walker didn't do much with his time but Forbes has been the most invisible player on the court

Pop limiting Beli, must want to win this game

Lonnie will play 30 minutes :lmao

Has anyone ever taught DeRozan how to handle last-minute situations? Guy looks like he has a stroke every single time and fucks it up with retarded play

Today's nba is just dumb. There is really no skill or fundamentally sound aspect of the game. It's just three point chucking slop.

Good half. :clap

Gotta agree with this. Don't like the product nearly as much these days.

I hate Brynt Forms so much.

Ideal 1st half though. Spurs kicking ass and Brynt sucking.

White still needs to be assertive out there. Good half from the Spurs though. You can tell the work DJ put in during the off-season with his shooting.

Sean should have to wear the cheese head for the rest of the game.

Murray and Aldridge are our best 3pt shooters

Only by virtue of not being defensive sieves, they are already our best 3pt shooters. The fact that they're actually good at that is just an extra.

It's not that there is no skill, but every team plays too similar. There might be a few great players that are different, Greek Freak for example, but as a team, they all play similarly.

A chivalrous man like you my friend should help her up and brush her off.

Forbes outplaying Walker for a 2nd consecutive game.

Pop is giving Lonnie opportunities, he isn't taking advantage, so far. Needs to wake up in the 2nd half.

Clippers, Bucks, Lakers, Celtics, Spurs and probably another team or 2 I forgot all play differently than the rest, tbh.

Not surprised pop is back to neutering Lonnie. Plays great man D and commits 1 foul and he's back on the bench

What is the skill? I can consistently hit 12/20 threes not being defended. No one can defend, I dont even know if there is a true defender in the nba right now. Trey Lyles is shooting threes with regularity... nba is just randomly trading 3s or I'll advised pullup jumpers from isolation. Its rec league at best

One of those is not like the others.

I wonder what the old man is saying during half time when the team always comes out completely confused and loses a lead almost every night

:lol true, but it can't be denied that the Spurs play a different style than the rest of the league.

yeah it's wack, I agree. Not nearly as interesting as it used to be

The lack of focus for this team is astounding. Choke up an 18 point lead in a couple of minutes. That's why they are a bad team.

Spurs have no players that will do anything to win or killer insrtinct.

A 15 point lead for us may as well be a 3 point lead.

Man every time the call timeout and they show Becky... she looks wore out. Doesn't look like she particularly likes these mini meetings with Pop.

Forbes with another great shooting performance. If he can't hit open shots, then why is he on the team?

Forbes starts a game, the Spurs come out flat. Forbes checks into the game at halftime, the Spurs come out flat. Hmmm

they also don't have a competent coach

Damn, LMA just bullied the fuck out of Giannis in the paint.

Forbes face says WINNER all over it /s

Bryn with da three.

Looks like he about to burst out crying

Forbes hot streak of 3pt shots would really be useful right about now

I'd be glad to do her the honors!

Someone stop the ball god damn basketball 101

Aldridge CANNOT guard Giannis under any circumstance.

It’s killing me that Pop won’t play DJ and White together

This is exactly the point where the wheels will fall off

Bring Wombat in for this fucking g-leaguer bro

I noticed that, too.

Lyles tied for most shot attempts in the third quarter and is 2-11?! This team's shot selection is so fucking weird.

Forbes learning bad habits from Marco with contested leaning 2pt jumpers

Nice assist by Forbes, now sit his ass for the rest of the game

There's 1 guy, sadly:lol

If the Spurs aren't going to give Lonnie serious minutes, I wish they would just send him back to the G-League and let him develop there. He is going to end up being good for another team eventually anyway...

Lyles thinks he's Melo tonight lol

Zeus?

Who knew it wasn't the trio of Patty, the loaded magazine and Belli that was the problem, it was just Belli that was the problem

Gone are the days having raw 7fters. Gone are the days of having undersized brick pf that just rebound and set screens. Gone are the days where pgs only got over the advantage line and call for an ISO in the block for a big. So although Lyles wouldn't play in the early 00s, Najera Wouldn't have made a career if he played now.

That was a great pick by Poeltl to get Forbes that last 3.

Gone are the days all players were more than one dimensional

Several mistakes, but hanging in there.

Spurs playing with some desperation finally.

FIBA Patty!!!

Also, in no other era would Lyles play.

Actually players are more rounded than ever. On average, they all can put the ball down, shoot, rebound, a jump out of the gym.

mvpatty : bobo

They would be up more if Forbes 18 minutes was distributed evenly to DJ, White and Lonnie

Mills is twice the player that Forbes and Marco are

Yep, and gets paid like it

Of all our issues and Pop's stupid rotations, the most annoying issue we've had all season is our penchant for giving up second chance points, IMO.

Wombat >>>>> Forms

Definitely not more annoying than the rotations. No.

The constant movement is so nice with this lineup & no DDR/LMA

Lionel dancing on the ceiling without dribbling

Pop thinks we might have a chance to win this one.

About time fuck the jelly throw it down!!

They should give Antentoumpko the James treatment. He can't shoot very well outside the paint

Forms is back in of course

I think they pretty much do.

Bryn stumbling over Bledsoe for the foul right out of the box.

No way LMA wasn't shooting there. SMH.

Forbes checks in, immediate Bucks run.

When are Gunn and HEB gonna cut some commercials with Tim's new look?

Scrub DiVincenzo having a career game against us per par.

Forbes will be the death of me. Makes me hate watching the game

El efecto de Forbes

Should have this in the bag. I figure we got it with 16-19 more points.

I'm close to hating Forbes as much as I hated Bonner, tbh.

I have the Spurs TV feed (Fox Sports SW), and some dumb byotch has squealed the ENTIRE GAME for Milwaukee. Every made basket. Every made free throw.

JUST SHUT UP. So annoying.
