Start more then.

[BillMc]

With a healthy Kawhi, an engaged LMA and a throwback Parker, this team looks frankly terrifying.

[ace3g]

OT but what is your opinion of this site?

Kyle is living in the climax of the Dr. Strange movie.

I think he was 3-3 in the last two minutes.
That one drive he had to start the streak was glacial.
Its actually difficult to shoot a layup at that pace but he pulled it off.

Ace always drops great articles and pics on ST. Totally under-appreciated.

That was heads up by Beli. He bounced that inbounds off Marcus Morris' ass, and picked it up for an open look at a 3. Shame he didn't have another couple of tenths of a second.

If it were only pre-shot clock. You could get a lead then just tell Kyle to lay it up and run out the clock.

How was he not able to get that off in 0.5 yet Fisher was able to catch in the air at his hip, land, rise and shoot the ball from above his head in 0.4? Smh.

Because the moment it hit Morris in the ass, the clock was supposed to start. He actually got a little help from the timekeeper.

So did Fisher.

The Spurs have scored at least 110 points in 7 consecutive games. That's the longest such streak since April of 2012 (also 7 games).

Spurs picked up their 19th win of 25 points or more over the last 2 seasons, most in the NBA in that time span.

[james evans]

Uh, yea. And if you want to go back to last season, he did it too. (had 26 and 13 in their 2nd matchup when they were better defensively) But sure, it's lol worthy

Parker didn't do against GS in the opening game this season. Do you have any highlights of that game you watched? Because I didn't see that one.

yeah,Fisher caught the ball, turned around, and faded away in .4 haha

[james evans]

I was talking about parker. How the did you think I was talking about Aldridge? hahahahah HOW???

[BillMc]

For those who missed/want to relive the game. Here are the highlights:




The train has a nice one at 0:32. Keep off the tracks..

I'm pretty sure fisher caught, turned and then shot. All in 0.4 seconds. Biggest load of I've ever seen, even until this day, it's still bull .

Indeed. I'm so glad the Fakers got dismantled by the Pistons in the Finals that year.

Yep...I was 15 at the time, and I knew that wasn't possible. And it pissed me off that it nullified Tim's most epic shot ever.

As for Shaq's "one lucky shot deserves another" comment...No, you big stupid got. Neither shot was lucky, but only one was in time. 5 > 4, you.

Yeah, that comment from Shaq pissed me off even more. Tim is one of the most clutch big men of all time. When he was younger, you could give him the ball and he'd deliver. It didn't necessarily have to be the game winner, he could get you the points to win the game in the last 4 minutes of a game if the team needed them. Not many other big men were great in crunch time. Shaq sucked, Olajuwon wasn't great, Malone was horrendous in crunch time, KG, forget about it, D-Rob, not so great either. A lot of great big men were not that good in the last few minutes of games due to them being able to be double teamed and also being poor free throw shooters. That's another point with Tim, even though he wasn't a great free-throw shooter, he'd make a lot of them with the game on the line. Look back as recently as the series against the Clippers in 2015. He was ice cold on the free throw line in those games, especially in game 7. Absolute legend. the league for taking away what was a great, clutch shot from Tim. It certainly was not a lucky shot.
