Great thread. Way to come back and establish yourself as a re
Doing his best to show right now why his contract was a ing mistake. This is exactly what we can expect out of him against good teams in the playoffs.
Great thread. Way to come back and establish yourself as a re
He's completely infantile against OKC and MIA, it's beyond ridiculous
He had 18-9 on 7/12 shooting against the Heat when Pop rested the Big 3 too.Tiago Splitter had 21 points and 10 rebounds, and San Antonio snapped Oklahoma City's five-game winning streak with a 105-93 victory on Monday night."I think everybody played well," Splitter said. "I was one of them. You play well and you feel better. You want to play well against these kinds of teams, these playoff teams. Of course, we've got to stay humble. It's one more game."
He's a streaky player which completely s with cliffdivers.
He was put in terrible positions tonight, tbh..
Most of the shots he took were under the basket in no man's land due to his teammates either over-penetrating or stupidly passing up shots..
The only bad attempt Splitter had was the layup that got destroyed by Ibaka, tbh..
I don't know what people expect him to do when he's catching the ball with 2 defenders already converged on him and no room to maneuver..
He's been huge during this 19 game streak. But apparently after 1 game his contract is an abortion. Please find me other 7-footers who can go for 10 and 10 when given more than 20 minutes, and tell me what they get paid.
He can be valuable only against Memphis in the playoffs and plays 20 minutes a game. LOL @ the money he's gonna make.
also he's a major pussy...
Well put. 'nuff said.

He has always always sucked against elite athletic teams (ie. okc and mia)
Nice to have a center that helps us dominate other teams but we're going to have to play elite teams to win a le.
The Thunder are just a terrible matchup for the Spurs, by far the worst in the league..there's no other team that even comes close to scaring the Spurs, including Houston..
Leonard, Green and Mills are the only players that played up to expectations tonight, tbh..
They keep trying this "extra pass for a great shot" idea that clearly won't work against the Thunder. They recover way too quickly. And as a result of that, he's trying to put up shots that he'd never normally try.
it's true. off jaggot
No one in the league plays Duncan as well as Perkins. It kills the offense when Duncan tries to force the issue against him. Perkins has done this going back to his time with Boston.
Also, Ibaka isn't any good defensively 1on1, but he has a major impact coming from the weakside on penetration. The Spurs do so much passing inside the paint, it plays into what Ibaka does best defensively.
Tiago is the only Spur with a positive +/- tonight at the moment...
Then Matt Bonner is the best player in the world.
The *travelling* call was Bull Thunderef.
Took away a nice move by Splitts and a good momentum hoop.
You gotta add "and plays passable D" otherwise you'll get people saying about Robin Lopez.
Congrats to Tiago for being the MVP in games against teams under .500.
I stand corrected.
It's just typical _Jaggoff, he's a joke tbh![]()
Tiago, Marco, MVParker and the fat frenchie all lost the game for us tbh
Crazy how splitter gets undervalued on spurstalk because he's been on the receiving end of 3 or 4 dunk/block highlights. I thought spurs fans were smart enough to look past highlight reels and see defensive impact. Without Splitter or an equivalent defensive big man to play next to tim, the spurs are in the lower half of the playoff teams, probably a 6-8 seed.
Cliffjumpers going to cliff tbh
Think he might also be good against Houston but against those teams the Spurs win with or without him.
This is accurate, and i made a couple of notes of this in the game thread. They were also stupid to bring him off the bench in the 2nd. When they have him out there to start, they can establish a slower tempo where Splitter can be an asset against OKC. Instead, they went out there without Splitter and Leonard and OKC predictably went on a run, got the fans involved, and the pace of the game was frantic, then Splitter came in and was completely overwhelmed, compounded by the issues you brought up.
