Game Blog: Spurs @ Clippers - Dec. 1

I was thinking hope he chokes on a sandwich but I like your idea better.

Yeah I don't want anyone to die, but I'd love for someone to pick up their paycheck in a walking boot.

[Nathan89]

pop needs to realize the lakers just lost and we are in prime position to troll on spurstalk, but only if we win this game.

[Fireball]

Besides hitting no threes Bonner has some good stats at the half ... but the intangibles are just missing

[ShoogarBear]

Just think how much worse this would be if the Spurs didn't have 12 offensive rebounds.

[SA210]

Thanks for the links fellas

[jestersmash]

is this baron's first game? he is making a humongous difference. they suck but with him he gets their shooters open shots

Baron has done extremely well. 7 assists. He's gotten a couple of the scrubs wide open 3s that they happened to knock down.

[Manu20]

Bonner played the most minutes of anyone in the first half......................

[Obstructed_View]

Why did Nazr shoot that three?

[GSH]

Splitter has been really good at sucking out offensive fouls, too. It would be nice to see him get a couple of quick ones on Griffin.

That being said, this has pretty much been the pattern for the season. They could be up by 15 at the end of the third, even without any lineup changes.

We need to stop laying eggs in the first half. One of these days we're not going to be able to come back. Bonner is a gift that keeps on giving to Griffin, and obviously Del Negro, a very amateur coach, will keep on milking that.

Ime for 3 mins is ok. Anything more than that is a liability unless we're ahead by 20+.

Let's hope we have something left in the tank for the second half. Tony specifically needs to show up. He's super passive. He almost looks injured or something....

[Libri]

I'm not sure what I'm hoping for more, that Splitter tells reporters that he didn't leave Europe and sign for peanuts to sit on the bench, or that a certain guy steps in a hole coming back from the locker room and snaps an ankle.

Do you think he's getting the Fabricio Oberto treatment? Fab didn't get any significant minutes until the second year. It would be a shame because Tiago can produce much much more than Fab.

[Chomag]

Its just amazing how every year lately Pop has to overplay scrubs..even when they are not contributing much.

[TampaDude]

Oh and Clippers are shooting > 50%?

A measly 8 point lead is pathetic given the cir stances.

Yeah...the Spurs are only shooting 34% from the floor and 3-11 from 3, and Butler hit 3 wide open 3s, and we're only down 8. I'll take it. Spurs will win the second half and the game. Book it. NFW we're gonna lose to these pukes tonight.

[pawe]

Cmon POP, play splitter. Bonner is getting murdered in the paint and he aint hitting shots anyway.

Amarelooms chomping at the bit for a Spurs loss. I see you in the thread activity list Amarelooms, you can't hide.

I hear you

DOne

I thank you sir!

[NASpurs]

I'm just waiting for Tony to break out in one of these games. This one would be nice.

[HarlemHeat37]

If he's going to play Bonner, might as well play him at the 3 and keep Ime on the bench..he just isn't an NBA player..there's a reason nobody else signed him..when you're a veteran NBA player and can't even get a scrub role on a team, there's a reason for it..

Ugly! Bonner for passing that open shot for a Udoka missed 3 in the corner.

[siraulo23]

its splitter's fault he's not playing tonight tbh...

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Man why doesn't Duncan go up to Pop and be like "Hey man Udoka, and Bonner are sucking ass, lets try something else".
