And Kevin Martin is so ty. People complained about Belinelli?

yep...

[Robz4000]

We'll be fine. They're just disinterested with the regular season. We'll get our reps against the Grizz or Mavs.

If this team doesn't make at least the WCF I'll ban myself for life. I'm no Apa9 or UNT, if I say I'm gone, I'm gone.

Be careful with that. Although I claimed otherwise, since January I had the same expectations and thought they could challenge the Dubs. Now they look dead in the water. Pop really has killed this team's momentum and seemingly everyone is slumping.

Cut this to 8 by half. Enough ing around, Portland toyed with this team just last week.

[DPG21920]

It's not about a first half or panic for me. But you want to see certain things. This teams offense has been in a funk for a while now. I think at times they have generated good looks and just missed, but they have also gone through bad stretches (like tonight). After some of the losses recently and the fact Pop is playing the main guys tonight you have to believe they wanted to win/play better/work on things.

As of now, whether they can or can't bounce back, it's about not seeing certain things.

[DarrinS]

KL or DG to grow a pair. Unfortunately just more of the same... Tim Duncan is the Spurs best player.

So so much to play for.

[Budkin]

fan appreciation night!

[TXstbobcat]

Simmons!!!!!!!

[Beaverfuzz]

Simmons goes lefty, PAY ATTENTION TIMMUH on how to make a layup on the left side of the hoop.

[Robz4000]

Why do those gots have a 42-39 record if Carlyle is such a killer coach?

Combination of injuries and awful talent. RC might be the best coach in the league tbh.

[Budkin]

Doesn't matter how the Spurs feel about this game. They should be able to phone it in and still win, or at worst make it compe ive. To trail by as much as 18 with your two max players on the floor is indicative of much bigger problems.

Seriously. We're in trouble.

[TheGreatYacht]

This is why we don't play the beautiful game, this team doesn't have enough shooters.

Kawhi, Parker, and that's about it.

[tholdren]

So so much to play for.

Right - who cares about being a professional, or at very minimum a compe or.

[Horry Hipcheck]

Why do those gots have a 42-39 record if Carlyle is such a killer coach?

Carlisle has almost nothing to work with. Dirk might as well be dead.

Not showing much pride or heart. Even in meaningless games it is discouraging to see so little focus and effort.

, if anything can come of these last two games, I hope Pop realizes this and gives his minutes to Simmons

[dwayne shintzius]

parker keeps playing like this why even watch the playoffs. so much for having a good rhythm and momentum going into the playoffs.....

[timtonymanu]

Shouldn't have signed the loser known as Kevin Martin, tbh..his presence makes every team worse..

May be the true enemy of the Butler situation, not Bonner.

[TheGreatYacht]

, if anything can come of these last two games, I hope Pop realizes this and gives his minutes to Simmons

Hope Simmons takes Danny's and Fat heads minutes too

[DPG21920]

No one knows whether or not SA is trouble because of this last month. It's possible, but it's also too hard to say it's because of that. It's too hard to tell.

It could turn out that way though. But it's more about what you see now and evaluating that - not the future. Spurs need some work and confidence.

[BillMc]

Couldn't you just eat your hat or something? No need to compound everybody's punishment. We appreciate your contributions.

I appreciate the kind words my friend. But no worries we'll make the WCF.

Be careful with that. Although I claimed otherwise, since January I had the same expectations and thought they could challenge the Dubs. Now they look dead in the water. Pop really has killed this team's momentum and seemingly everyone is slumping.

It's just disinterest from having the seed locked-up. They'll be fine. This is like a preseason game...

[tholdren]

[resistanze]

You actually think they're purposely tanking a game - with all their starters playing?

[resistanze]

Besides the stagnant offense, it's their defense which has been just shocking.

[Kikoluna]

Wow , webber is horrible.

Mailing it in.
