Game Thread: Spurs @ Lakers - Nov 13, 2012 @ 9:30

[Paranoid Pop]

Our offense just looks like since the beginning of the season, and Howard denying the paint to TP is a hard match-up no matter how good we're playing so it's gonna be a long night.

I missed that whole first half. Stat sheet tell the whole story?

Looking at the stat sheet, I'm not sure how the Spurs aren't down at least 20 points.

I liked Splitter in the first half. He seemed as comfortable as ever when playing next to Duncan.

Did you think that Pop panicked by pulling Splitter out with only one foul which help resulted in a Lakers run?

[sananspursfan21]

not a lot of ball movement. that's been the strength of this offense. need to get back to that

Well played.

[timvp]

need to put splitter in more pick and rolls
hes kind of hangning around the basket while duncan is setting the picks

Splitter pick-and-rolls don't work without four three-point shooters around him, fwiw.

[sananspursfan21]

liked blair's energy too

[JRHernandez88]

This is gonna be a entertaining second half. I wanna see Duncan go HAM on Dwight so bad. We're playing way too soft, like we're intimidated

[Obstructed_View]

Pop wasn't panicking when he pulled Splitter, he was teaching him.

Hmm weird, after I saw the replay and the fact that the Lakers' commentators also agreed about it perhaps also being a blocking foul, I thought it was.

I think as far as being set and staying out of the restricted area, Kobe was good.

The only question was whether or not Kobe "undercut" Kawhi after he already jumped into the air or if Kobe moved into position before Kawhi took off.

I mean it was very close, but refs rarely favor the offensive player if the defensive player gets into position and is outside the restricted area.

[timvp]

Leonard on Kobe?

[007nites]

MWP keeping us alive

[timvp]

Great pass, TP.

[boutons_deux]

bad game for Tim to go stone cold

[timvp]

OMG. Morris getting class like he's Kobe.

[lakerhaterade]

Damn it tony

[jestersmash]

Morris getting the CP3 treatment by the refs.

I mean yeah that's a "superstar foul," but god damn...

[Obstructed_View]

OMG. Morris getting class like he's Kobe.

After the non-call against Dwight, that's worrisome.

[timvp]

Kobe is worse than Nash on defense, tbh.

[jestersmash]

Morris...isn't a superstar (to finish my post)

[007nites]

Splitter is good on the offensive boards tonight

[ace3g]

glad Green attacked, but damn bad floater, nice work by Splitter keeping that ball alive

[BatManu20]

As soon as Danny Green puts the ball on the floor he's a liability tbh.

[siraulo23]

geez ugly floater from green

[timvp]

Green can't guard Kobe.
