What about the committee?

They're only -3 vs. GS's SL. Can't ask for anything more in this situation (Golden State salty after losing to Minny and playing like it's game 7 in pursuit of the record + LMA injury).
Consider this a preemptive thread, because when the Spurs lose this game, I know the forum will wrongly place the criticism on the starters.
Bench + Aldridge injury really hurting us
Danny
Patty House and Manure have predictably disappeared, per par.
Can't judge Boris, obviously, but he probably got the DNP due to fatness or something.
Meaningless game as I said tbh. We actually should have rested the guys thou.
Complete waste of played and risk injury
Pop will go full tank mode as soon as the GS lead hits 20, which will be any minute now...
not even mad, I had this one penciled in as an L after they lost a couple at home...
BTW, OP, Pop might not want to bring back the starters after this 3rd quarter... there goes that theory I guess
This team hasn't had a single impressive road performance against an elite or even near elite team, this season.
This is a predictable blowout, that will be chalked up to the Warriors having the motivational advantage (which is somewhat true) and had this been the Spurs from '14-previous, I'd have chalked it up to that too. But I've seen this too many times the previous two years, so I know better.
Some will inevitably complain that this blowout will hurt the Spurs confidence against them, but it was clearly already shaky and the Warriors' was already sky high.
Pop is probably going to pull this plug any minute, but I'd do the opposite. I'd let this latest embarrassment wash over them, force them to own it and see if they're capable of making a legit comeback. No more bail outs, no more excuses.
The Client needs to wake the up against elite teams, though.
Like I've said for the past month, since this team's backcourt rotation is so thin, he needs to be a consistent double digit scoring threat.
I think our starters are way less than -3 now

yawn, not worried here... no shame losing to this Dubs team...
Have seen enough, Mid..I actually think the Spurs are an easy matchup for the Warriors...
Decent show on Nbatv.Refreshing to see 4 white guys talk about basketball,instead of hop jibberish like Jalen Rose.
a team that was struggling the past week or so rolls you effortlessly for a second time this season while barely losing the away game without 3 key rotation is as disturbing as it gets for this potential series..
I expected a loss, but I wanted a good loss. The SL is -10 now, but if the bench could've reasonably countered, we'd still be in the game. But apparently, it's too much to ask Patty House and Manure to perform consistently.
They just have no confidence; that's what it boils down to. Despite having superior pedigree, statistically being superior and theoretically matching up well. It's bizarre.
I've harped about the pathetic offense on the road against good teams, but an even bigger concern is that, along the way this season, they basically morphed into a two man team. And as good as Leonard and Aldridge are, they're not transcendent offensive players.
Sorry, but I'm not seeing any bright spots for this game (well, aside from the fact it doesn't mean anything in the long run). I was expecting a loss, but it looks like this game is going the route of the 1st meeting. We're getting thoroughly outplayed in practically every facet. Our offense has looked pathetic yet again on the road against a solid team, and the defense hasn't been a whole lot better.
lmao Tim Duncan should show some leadership and bench himself
I agree. I've given up hope. These are the real Warriors here, not that depleted version we "convincingly" beat at home.
I'll be called a Chicken Little fan or whatever, but the Spurs simply lack the perimeter firepower to match this team.
If we lose this game and it looks like we are, Sunday is a must win. That's if both teams are full roster out there. Spurs need to send the msg that they cannot be beaten at home .If we lose Sunday, that gives a huge mental edge to GS going into a playoff series against spurs.
I really dont think "mental edges" exist against the Spurs, we are seasoned vets, not really gonna sweat it unless we get blown out in SA.
Must win regular season game![]()
it could be argued OKC/ Clippers matches up better with them than we do....
