im embarrassed to be a spurs fan at the moment a little bit
Ime has played average at best in some aspects like getting deflections defensively. Everything else hes been piss poor the past 6 games and the whole year. I think hes what 12 for 35 the past 5 or 6 games?
If I'm Bruce I'd be slightly irritated and wondering why the is Pop going to Udoka over me?
Man, for all the outside shooting Finley and bonner gives us, those guys are definitely defensive liabilities. Most teams would have them coming off the bench, swinging towels and passing out gatorade...Just really frustrating to watch sometimes.
The Spurs will end the season with 5th seed in the West because of this loss. Watch.
Calm down!! It's one game! We still are 1.5 games ahead of Houston. Anything is possible, sure. But we are also 2.5 games ahead of #3.
Even if TP had hit that 3 to win 79-78, it still doesn't change the fact that the Spurs played like tonight. I guaran- ing-tee you the Lakers would've blown the Thunder out by 30+ tonight. The Lakers have the "killer instinct"...they know how to finish off an opponent. The Spurs, sadly, lack that same killer instinct right now.
Yeah, and it happens when you play down to the level of weaker teams.
Nope...this was the first loss in a 4-5 game skid. Book it.
Spurs still only have 22 losses, Rockets have 25. So were up 3 in the loss column....
I do believe I watched the Lakers almost lose a pretty big lead against the Spurs...and I believe the Lakers have lost to teams like the Bobcats. It happens.
Booked. Doubtful. Home game tomorrow night against Minnesota.
Oh, okay....
I refuse to believe that after such a big win against the Rockets last game, that we will just lay down and die after a 2 point loss to the Thunder. If anything, the Spurs will know now to not let up.
We have losses like this every year, against ty teams most of the time also. Sometimes I like for the Spurs to lose a game like this so they dont get too "big-headed" and think they have every game in the bag. You have to fight every night against any team in the NBA, no matter what their record is. They looked very out of sync, relaxed, "we got this" half-ass at ude. Pop will rip into them big time. Maybe they were looking past OKC and Minny on to Boston and Houston, it won't happen again. We are still the 2 seed, we will be fine. They'll bounce back, starting tomorrow night....
This year, the Lakers have lost to Indiana, Sacramento, Phoenix, and Charlotte. Stupid losses happen.
True, I was just going by the standings.
I really hope I'm wrong...I really do...but the Spurs looked LOST out there in the second half. They were moving and passing like a .500 college basketball team! UG-LI-NESS!!!
T-Wolves are next! (I mean it)
I like how we can now include Phoenix in the list of stupid losses.
I really hope it was just a "we don't give a " at ude by the Spurs, and not an indication of serious fundamental weaknesses.We have losses like this every year, against ty teams most of the time also.

If they haven't learned that lesson by March during the stretch run of trying to get the #2 seed...they have alot more problems than this game.
Yes...but things like that happen. We got laxed...this was a regular season game against the Thunder..not a playoff game against the Lakers...we'll get it back tomorrow night..Settle down, bro..it'll be fine.I really hope I'm wrong...I really do...but the Spurs looked LOST out there in the second half. They were moving and passing like a .500 college basketball team! UG-LI-NESS!!!
They're starting to play the score. Or like boxers they just blow they're load early and fade down the stretch. Its getting painful to watch.
Oh, I know...it felt so good to put that in there..lolI like how we can now include Phoenix in the list of stupid losses.
The Spurs have a history of playing poorly against bad teams, but this year's taking it to the limit. Minnesota, Milwaukee, Charlotte, Toronto, New York, Philadelphia, Oklahoma...
I'm not worried about the loss at all, don't get me wrong..I've never panicked over a loss this year, regular season games are always irrelevant to me..
this is just about these stretches we have..
YES, it happens to every team..but I guarantee we do it more than any other team in the league, and in the quickest span..
