Game Thread: Spurs @ Warriors -- Mon. (1/25) - 9:30PM CST (5:30AM Riga Time)

Steele, I know you hate Anderson, so this comes from the heart.

If the veterans are going to show this terrible a game. . . scratch that, and then lets watch some guys who are developing and its justifiable for them to struggle as they are still learning, have a terrible game. Maybe they grow a pair, since they are young and/or rookies and/or new and can find an edge in themselves to learn something this game even if it is a loss.

That was a not so subtle troll post, imo

[HI-FI]

Tony and LA were the 2 that needed to step up and they are the worst!!!

I still don't know what makes Tony go...

He is playing like a rookie out there, it's embarrassing.

damn. respect for calling out Parker.

Tony loves to be appreciated and aggrandized like Kobe imo. When his gets pushed in, it gets ugly.

Just gotta hope they learn from this game. the Warriors are fkin obnoxious as fans and players imo.

Bones just showed a few highlights emphasizing the effect of not having Duncan in this matchup. Spurs missed him, esp with LMA being awful.

RUN THE OFFFENSE THROUGH KAWHI AND PARKER .

[Mouth is Bleeding]

I guess Pop is saving Green on Curry for another time. It's been very limited.

Not that he can stop him but he seems to be our best option on him by far.

[GSH]

In that 2nd qtr alone for a stretch of about 4 mins I counted about 8 straight layups/dunks...

Yep. And on the other end, the Spurs missed chip shots and fast breaks. This is a ball game if the Spurs weren't soft in the paint.

[G-Dawgg]

They're running around all frantic turning the ball over. It's very uncharcteristic of them. They need to relax, slow down and pound the ball inside. -Post Aldridge up alot

ABOUT ING TIME LAMARSHA!

When you look at the numbers, the bottom line is that the Spurs got their asses kicked in the paint. That's supposed to be their advantage over other teams, and they just got beat 32-18 in the half. Curry made 3-4 threes, but the rest of the team is 1-6 from the arc. It's the weak-ass play in the paint (both ends) that has killed the Spurs.

League's best defense is a sieve. But how many of the points in the paint are lay ups off of turnovers?

LMA

WAKE THE UP LMALPJHA

[Xevious]

That wouldn't be lying at this particular point in time, but I wish he would talk more about where we are and where we need to be to beat this team, rather than the canned response

Pop is playing chess. He isn't going to say anything in a press interview that will give a potential playoff opponent something to use.

[turb0time]

LMA!

[Silver&Black]

Just find something that works on D this half...could care less if we win or lose by 20.

I just hate that Pop is just going to say "turnovers" in the post game pressed and that will be that...

Honestly, the Spurs playing without any pgs is why I wanted Jarrett Jack vs a GSW matchup. We need more size at the pg position and the 1st half made that abundantly clear.

Not so much Tony, since Danny and our defense covers so much for him, but Mills has been torched by a number of bench PG, from Austin Rivers, to Livingston, to pretty much any scoring PG. He can't stop anybody. He's pesky and scrappy, that is it. He will come away with loose balls, I mean he shows effort, but there is nothing more he can do with his size. It's an unsolvable issue bc we can't bench Mills.

[steeledl]

GOOD

[marinoman]

Manu +1
Simmons +3
Butler +3

Only guys in the positive with starters in double digit negative...

That's not fair tho, when our starters are in usually their starters are in

[313]

We might have something here

[GSH]

Double dribble, chicken wing, shove off. Not bad for one play.

[tonight...you]

Pop needs to kick Aldridge in the balls to see if they're still there.
Then he needs to tell these guys to quit pissing their pants and overplaying the situations.

Now: Feed LMA in the LOW post, feed Kawhi and stay disciplined.
This can be pulled out.
