Grades: Spurs @ Lakers - Nov. 1, 2013

[024]

Baynes and Ayers were terrible. We will be seeing more of Matt Bonner for a while.

Blair had a double-double for the Mavs last night. Maybe we should try to get him back?

[heyheymymy]

Two games and I'm not impressed.

C'mon man, read that again. It's laughable. You realize it's opening week, we just played game 2/82, and players are still getting conditioned? I'm not impressed either, but seriously, what did you expect the first week back?

Lj needs some





maybe

Reminded me of Bad Grandpa

Timvp is way too lenient these days. Kawhi played terrible. Danny Green was abominable. In fact, everyone outside of Parker, Diaw, and Ginobili should have gotten C's or F's.

I'm convinced, hands down, that the Lakers are the worst team in the league right now. And on top of that, the Lakers played horrible, and we still almost lost to them.

Bad grades Timvp! Bad!

I was referring to the bench play, not the team's 2-0 start. I don't see much consistency at all and while I think things will get better, the bench production will be hit-or-miss all year.

Good to see Spurs fans in emo mode already two games into the season.

I agree, it's the reason why it's very hard for me to get excited about this season. We know exactly what we have and added basically nothing. The Blair replacement is about the same level, same thing with the Neal replacement... Bonner gets a lot of minutes... The playbook is basically the same... Same 3 scrubs fighting for backup PG... I just can get it up for this season... RC can still save it with a trade but I have little hope for Pop, won't use Kawhi as the screener in the PnR for some reason altho his midrange game could really shine, doesn't like Baynes...

Only good thing so far is Boris playing like he should, but even then he played well during last year's run so it's not exactly a game changer...

I'm not even sure Ayres is as good as Blair. At least Blair had a knack for scoring against undersized, smallball teams and was a decent rebounder for his height. Ayres can't shoot/score, defend, or rebound. He's not really good at anything.

NASFs everywhere

Splitter/Belinelli/Mills/Ayers too high

Meh...I think Timvp grades on a curve, based on expectations. I think the grades are fair.

According to my sources, they're going through divorce right now.

Who's your source?

[T Park]

According to my sources, they're going through divorce right now.

Nothing like spreading lies...

[Darius Bieber]

Does feel pretty empty around here without them though. Also wouldn't mind if Timvp came back just to update his Avatar pic... Pretty depressing, to be honest...

[G-Dawgg]

Did that Timvp guy die?

[Staplepuffs27]

Kori was on the NBA forum a few days ago. Said they'll be back playoff time.
