Bonner is fine in the regular season but a disaster in the playoffs. We need a stretch 4 who doesn't choke in the playoffs.
I appreciate you guys keeping the scores and time coming. It's frustrating to not have TV coverage and not know the scores. Thanks again.

Oh man, that brings back memories. The final 10 minutes of a game last longer than the first 38 in the NBA.
I'll reserve your obese ass a "pew" in the church of Splitter.
Defense was bad tonight, but a win is a win.
On to the Clips.
I'm not a big fan of the 39 mn that TP played... I really hope TJ will be back soon... thats too much
Was it something you expected?
I've got 5 PGs, don't need him. I'd maybe give you Jason Thompson. Who do you want for him?
One of those things that generally don't get appreciated - Manu was awesome getting around screens tonight. I noticed it and started watching, and it was just a beautiful thing. My late Christmas wish is that he could teach Green to do that. It would make Green a much better player, and help the team a lot too.
I don't care if Manu isn't back to 100%, or if his shot isn't all the way there yet, or anything else. The guy is so damned court-savvy, he's always contributing. I would have to check the numbers, but I think he was the only one to do a good job of containing Derozan.
Thank you for PWNing the . I have him on ignore these days.
i blame the perimeter players in green, parker, kl who gives there man to much spacing and always chasing under the screen where they are always late
As long as it wasn't over 30 it was bound to happen sometime.
I knew you couldn't resist...let me have a look
Great call.
That you want to get rid of him so badly means you don't believe his run will continue either, but if the deal is right I might give it a go.I knew you couldn't resist...
Oh my god we need to get rid of Blair he needs to go in order for us to have any chance of getting another ring. We need to find a true PF to replace Blair and why is Cory/Smiley still even on this team he needs to go back to the D-League.
Hes not coming back.
Besides, he probably wouldn't understand that even when Splitter gets assisted on the pick and roll, hes slick enough to make something happen and produce. The way he gets open and the way he gets into a favorable position is the reason why hes special.
If what he did was really so easy we'd see more players do this:
So I asked myself: "Self, how many bigmen in the NBA are as well rounded as Tiago Splitter?"
Per 36 minutes, Splitter is averaging 16.2 points, 9.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.4 blocks and 5.0 free throw attempts. I use basketball-reference.com to search for players who are averaging 16 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 5 free throw attempts per 36 minutes this season.
I'm surprised when only two players in the NBA match that criteria.
Tiago Splitter is obviously one.
The other?
Tim Duncan.
i knew we be in it for the long run when blairs first 2 offensive plays...he fkn bricked the or never had any intentions of passing it out....fck that , we were so lucky green and RJ were nailing shots in the first quarter
I think Duncan and Splitter may be too of the most intelligent big men. I'll take bigmen with high basketball iq over ones that are ultra-athletic but have low bbiq.
He's really good at finding open space, and he's a big target for ball handlers out of the PnR. His post-up game is currently the single highest contributor to his overall offensive game. So he can generate offense even when other players aren't creating for him in the PnR or with penetration.
Someone tonight was complaining that Splitter doesn't get his hands high enough when he shoots, or something ridiculous like that. Splitter is so good about protecting the ball with his body and the rim, selling his moves, etc. that he makes it look easy. Yeah he takes most of his shots around the rim, but he's shooting 62% and most other bigs in the league would be shooting 50% (or less) with the same opportunities.
He's not bringing a lot of thunderous dunks, but he gets himself a lot of easy-looking shots. He's actually padding some other players' assist stats at times.
Stayed tuned for the perfect test of your theory Saturday in the Staples lab.
He doesn't need to score 25, and he doesn't need to score with his left. He's a distributor point guard who makes plays for his teammates and is capable of scoring when needed. He'll be a great compliment to Anthony.
BTW, how do you know that he has no left hand? Is it because you have yet to see him use his left hand, or because he often misses with his left? Did you mean he can't shoot with his left, or dribble, or both? I think his ball handling is good enough to set up a right-hand shot even when a left might be more appropriate.
...if the team gives him the ball. In the 4th Q tonight he scored twice in three plays, then other players settled for 4 straight long jumpers!? Feed the Splitter you morons!
this game has shown what we all needed to do, send fkn corey to the dleague damn it...charity minutes blowing out leads
