Spurs get it to 8-10 by the 4th and we'll win

[loveforthegame]

Airball, turnover, and leaves Crawford wide open. Not a good sequence for Manu.

[Chris]

What a ty half gonna take a miracle to win this one without MVParker

[Mnky]

The good thing is, No way Manu could have played a worse first half. If Pop continues to play him, at least there's that to look forward to.

[FkLA]

[Robz4000]

Team is still far too reliant on Manu

[spurtech09]

Not even a sorry team would lose like this..Spurs ing suck.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

We need this ass ing so Pop can show this team how ing overrated they are

[GSH]

I knew they weren't going to get to 80. Weak-assed es.

[timtonymanu]

Terrible game. Don't care if the game is a loss, but holy what a pathetic effort.

[dabom]

Not ONE positive to take from that first half.

[ElNono]

no excuses, tbh.... Manu was pretty damn awful and if he can't play back to backs, then he needs to sit out...

Also, the defense in general was terrible. It's ok that Blake breaks you down, but Mbah Moute dominating is terrible, tbh...

[Silver&Black]

Down by 18....ugh.

[DarrinS]

Smh at all the crying.

Act like you've been here before.

[Lostwingman]

Wtf is this .

[Chinook]

Team is still far too reliant on Manu

Nah, dude shouldn't be in the game right now. He made the team worse.

[GSH]

They started off with an 8-0 run then the Clippers stopped sleep walking and shut them down.

Only because Pau and LMA were both out shooting 3's. Blind squirrels find a nut every now and then.

What a forgettable half.

I guess Pop gives the team the first 5 minutes of the 3rd before waving the white flag.

[Nathan89]

Pau is like adding another Tony Parker on defense. I hope he opts out of his contract.

[ElNono]

Team is still far too reliant on Manu

He'll play a lot less if Danny was available, IMO

[GSH]

Smh at all the crying.

Act like you've been here before.

Don't remember being here in the Tim Duncan era.

[Mnky]

LMA and Pau are out shooting Kawhi by a landslide, arn't getting enough touches. He needs to learn to defer to his teammates that are hitting. He's pulling a tony out there. Learning to win when you're not effective is a quality he desperately needs for them to compete. Good thing is, he has responded strong every time this season so far when having a below average first half. Let's see if he continues with that trend.
