Game Thread #5: Spurs @ Wizards -- Wed. (11/4) - 6:00 PM CST (2:00 AM Riga Time)

Props to Tony though. He came through in the clutch. Too bad it will go unnoticed

[random21]

This team will suffer these losses at the end of the game if it's close. They still have to figure each other out...

[FkLA]

Pretty sure, Beal was Kawhi's man. Can't blame LMA for that.

He was but Kawhi stopped following after the screen. Looked like they were supposed to switch and LMA didn't. Still, I thought LMA played good D Beal just made a better shot.

[Texas_Ranger]

I don't understand why these guys never played a lot more minutes together in the preseason. When you have a team this new, why wouldn't you play these guys together more in the preseason?

Spurs should have cut all those scrubs after the firs game and not play them until the last.

[HI-FI]

Enirique froze out Kawhi in the 4th quarter & gave him the rock in crunch time

Porker with the worst +/- for the game. His heroball in teh fourth always comes back to haunt the Spurs.

What's the over/under on the number of meltdown threads created tonight????????

Under 15

[UNT Eagles 2016]

I don't want to live on this planet anymore, hope to find a better one followed by a huge asteroid hitting this one, tbh

[100%duncan]

What did they pay LaMisseda Scrimmage 19.6 million for again?

Suns

Honoring nash

[Fireball]

Spurs had 5-7 point leads most of the games between the Thunder and Wizards(Glass half full). It's ugly right now, but it will get better.

but like last season Spurs just cannot win close games ...

[milkyway21]

It's LIVE here so this loss really pisses me off

I expect from my friends later

[TheDoctor]

Pretty sure, Beal was Kawhi's man. Can't blame LMA for that.

Beal passed by Kawhi all night long with ease. And Kawhi Z E R O assists again.

[james evans]

just game 5. not the end of the world. We have 77 more games to go. I'm sure we're going to the playoffs. I guarantee it.

[mexicanjunior]

Garbage game... this team.

[Kawhitstorm]

you're an idiot. KL can't control a game. He refuses to get contact. can't hold a lead jacking up 20 footers and never getting to the line. you're takes are terrible

Porker sure did control the game when he was handling the rock in the 4th quarter.

[ElNono]

It's not all bad, tbh... despite all the mistakes we had a solid shot at this game... Kiwi missed a couple shots, LMA missed an open jumper too...

[TheMulletMan3000]

What the was Kawhi doin jus hangin out in the paint!?!

i think he was guarding gortat. not sure

[DeRozan m8]

Beal is an over-rated got

[Ice009]

pretty sure almost any decent player could score 23 on 22 shots with 0 assists, but you know best

If I had Kawhi's body, I could do that any day of the week. That would be one of my worst games. I'm a lot tougher than Kawhi mentally and I'm a superior shooter.

Not an impressive game from Kawhi at all. Hopefully no-one here actually thinks he played a good game.

[100%duncan]

He was but Kawhi stopped following after the screen. Looked like they were supposed to switch and LMA didn't. Still, I thought LMA played good D Beal just made a better shot.

yeah that was just weird too. If Pop told them to switch then that's on Aldridge for forgetting it a split-second. If Pop didn't, then that was a good contest. Needed to close out hard else Beal would have just stepped into a 2 pointer.

[Kawhitstorm]

Beal passed by Kawhi all night long with ease. And Kawhi Z E R O assists again.

Kawhi struggles against small quick guards: Monta Ellis

[da_suns_fan]

lol salty

LaDefense Slippage?

[pgardn]

With new team members we will have complete brainfarts.

And really we just did not play well. Neither KL or LMA are ready to carry an entire team. KL got himself two great wide open shots and did not come close. And he has got to chase Beal. That screen was not a wall.

[100%duncan]

If I had Kawhi's body, I could do that any day of the week. That would be one of my worst games. I'm a lot tougher than Kawhi mentally and I'm a superior shooter.

But you don't, so argument invalid.

[tholdren]

Porker sure did control the game when he was handling the rock in the 4th quarter.

Tony turned the ball over, but he tied the game. Leonard failed in the moment twice tonight. He's not a max player - he can't get to the line. Thats about it.

[From Downtown]

80-2?
