2014 Western Conference Finals-Game 3-San Antonio Spurs @ Oklahoma City Thunder

[Sean Cagney]

No, but I expected Parker to actually try. I can live with missed shots, but he's really passive and not locked in the game.

That is true.

[mvparker]

So is Pop a ing Tony hater too. He benched his ass for being a total pussy. It seems Pop agrees with us tonight.

There is a little difference between "he sucks tonight" and "he's the ultimate pussy, trade his ass, hope he dies blablabla...", don't you think genius?

[ElNono]

looking great after a terrible 2nd quarter...

[slick'81]

Splitter negated in this one

[Budkin]

OKC has re-established their game: Ibaka dominating down low, whilst their chimps go nuts from the perimeter.

And only up 4 while we have one of our worst games since Dallas series...

[Spursfanfromafar]

Lol at the cliff jumpers watching this game. OKC is getting every bit of its offense through sheer hero-ball by Westbrook and Durant. The former especially is playing simply through his gut, taking bad shot after bad shot and getting a few to stick. Every point that Manu scored has been through the Spurs' basic ball movement and plays and sticking together to plan. I think the Spurs win this.

[Death In June]

Spurs close but no cigar. OKC in control. Wild 3's from Manu will not win this game, or series.
You gotta wonder if the Spurs can beat Ibaka.

lol

[jARS mEsH sEt]

No . Neither is the game. You cliff jumping got.

I'll never forget Darius Bieber posting "series is over "

I've never seen a bigger cliff jumping got, tbh..

[cjw]

You have to get a guy on Russ as you know he always pushes for the 2 for 1 even when ill advised. Thank goodness for Manu tonight.

1st Half Recap
Parker awful
Ibaka red hot
Perk 3 fouls
SpurRefs
ton of turnovers for Spurs
Manu beasting 5-8 from 3pt 20 points
WB and Manu making mockeries of the 3pt line late in the 2nd.
down 4 (still have no idea how)

[$pursDynasty]

are the cliff jumpers Spurs fans or trolls? If we were the Chicago Cubs website I might understand the cliff jumping or a Clippers one but Spurs fans shouldn't be cliff jumpers so I am thinking it is just trolls so I will stop letting the cliff jumping and haters piss me off on here so much.

[BanditHiro]

Baynes needs to trip and accidentally take Ibaka's leg with him i.e D-Wade vs Paul George.

[Horry Hipcheck]

Ginobili shouldn't be expected to have that kind of half again. Duncan and Parker need to wake the up and act like they want this game. They seem intent on giving OKC life in this series with their soft/passive play.

Someone pointed out in another thread that the Spurs seem to lose when Ginobili has games like this, and I pointed out that it's because Manu goes off when Parker isn't around. If Parker's not in the game, the Spurs struggle to find their rhythm. I totally agree, Parker needs to get his head out of his ass and Duncan needs to impose himself down low. He lets Ibaka and Perkins bully him and then puts up weak .

[Knoxxx]

Dat Westbrook is one lucky ! (actually trying to decide who is getting luckier)

[slick'81]

Parker wtf dude

[r0drig0lac]

ginobili going to 40 today

[PingPong]

I don't know who I'd slap in the face. Parker for ting in the bed or Pop for keeping him on court.

[Malik Hairston]

This game will be decided early in the 3rd IMO..

If the Spurs come out flat, like they've been known to do in 3rd quarters during the past few years, then OKC will win this game by double digits IMO..

If the Spurs can come out strong and be within 4 or less halfway through the 3rd, this game will go down to the wire..

[Darius Bieber]

No . Neither is the game. You cliff jumping got.

Lol Spurs fan in denial about not being able to win against OKC in a 7 game series.

[dg7md]

Ibaka isn't the only factor that is keeping them in the game, it's the Ibaka effect, which will subside in the next game for sure once the players and fans are finished with cheering madly at everything he does since he'll be an established return by then.

We just need to hit our shots and do what we're doing, with less turnovers, and we have a great shot to steal a series-clinching 3-0 lead. I actually feel pretty good about this game, not like the Dallas away games tbh.

[RD2191]

Hope we don't get blown the out in the 3rd. We need someone to take over. Obviously Parker can't against a healthy OKC.

[TDfan2007]

Timmy playing extremely soft in the paint on both ends. He's been practically invisible.

[Diego20]

Manu with an ok game..

How is 20 points in the first half 5-7 3P and 7-11 FG with 1 turnover (Yes, the second turnover doesn't count) is an OK GAME?!!

[703 Spurz]

So many gots in this thread. Spurs win by 15.

[boutons_deux]

Spurs shooting cold, and giving too many layups, too many pts in the paint
