Game Thread: Spurs vs Sixers -- Fri. (1/26) - 7:30/C (3:30am Riga Time)

[NASpurs]

I take it back, Houston is tied now.

[LittleCriminal]

Ooh the last t shirt...who will get it

hopefully Anderson gets it and wears it behind the bench.

[spurs10]

Just let them score, they’re getting every board until they do.

[bklynspursfan]

Houston were down 20+ and cut it down to 8 now. Spurs were down 20+ and cut it down to 18.

Can't come back from all of them, but we've had our fair share of come from behind wins. Most notably the OKC game.

It's down to 1 AND on the road.

Yeah when OKC was playing like and were known to squander leads.

5 now tbh

There's gotta be something going on with the Spurs internally or in the locker room. They aren't themselves and aint playing like a team. They're playing like something is wrong.

[Spurtacular]

Spurs were already down 20 in the 3rd when I tuned in. Damn.

[Chinook]

New players like Forbes, Laughverne and Bertans crashing the rotation, none of which are worth a damn; Pop constantly resting key rotation players on a nightly basis which makes it almost impossible to form Chemistry; Kawhi Leonard being out most of the season; Pop's oddball lineups; Starting an out of control pg who really hasn't put anything together yet; Do we still have to pretend like Kyle Anderson is a competant NBA basketball player?

Tell me more about team chemistry?

Chemistry hasn't been a problem for most of the year. That's why they're still third in the West. It's been a problem recently, though.

[spurs10]

Silver lining is ticket values have never been lower if you want to see a game in person. People can’t sell their tickets at face value.

Could it be that the Spurs are actually actively looking for trade scenarios and players are worried about that?

My personal belief was the thing with Pop and Aldridge. Maybe players are upset that Pop changed just for Aldridge, not for Kawhi or any other player. What makes Aldridge so special?

The last 2 games, they looked much better. Broke 100 twice in a row. The offense just get so ugly.

Manu/Gay/Kawhi obviously will help. It's been a super frustrating season with everyone getting hurt

[NASpurs]

Lauvergne

[Hoops Czar]

Pull the plug Pop. I think it's time to bring in the scrubs. Oh wait, they've been out there all game.

When does Manu come back? I need to catch Manu in person at least one more time.

[phxspurfan]

Oh Joffrey

[Darius Bieber]

Joffrey has got to be the biggest waste of roster space the Spurs have ever had.

[Spurtacular]

Joff flinging the ball into the backcourt.

Pop changed everything for Kawhi tho, pretty much let him have free reigns when he had the ball vs what they had been doing

No one knows who Forbes and Bertans are, and no one pays to see them play

[Darius Bieber]

Apparently he didn't change enough for Kawhi. Or perhaps Pop changing for Aldridge upset Kawhi.

Boogie just blew his Achilles. Brutal for NO in likely win over Rockets

[spurs10]

Definitely! He and LMA’s play has been the most redeeming thing of the season.

Ooof man, that organization is cursed.
