Game 49: San Antonio Spurs at Washington Wizards - 6PM (CST)

[RD2191]

Spurs by fitty

[ForeignFan]

Thankfully, Green is back to save TP the embarrassment of guarding Wall.

IIRC Parker did a good job on Wall (when he was guarding him) last time

[look_at_g_shred]

this isn't 2004, tbh..

I think he meant as far as bagging a teammates significant other tbh...

[Mugen]

Wiz have beat OKC and POR this last week. Spurs are going to have to be sharp early to have a chance IMO. Can't spot them a 10+ lead like they did to the terrible Pelican team tbh.

Bullets by double digits

1-trick pony with < 20% shooting

One interesting tidbit from this morning's shootaround: Pop intends to continue to mix zone D in even after all the injured guys come back.




Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN

Started running zone just to protect some of his smaller guards with so many wings out. Liked the results enough.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Wish we could have one of Ariza/Webster.

Ariza would have been a solid addition, no questions about that. Especially since he's been able to stay healthy this season.

Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN
Same starters tonight in WAS per Pop: Parker, CoJo, Green, Duncan, Diaw.

[Robz4000]

Eh, I'd of started Splitter tonight. Diaw will struggle guarding either Gortat or Nene.

#wizards have lost 15 straight vs SAS. Haven't defeated Spurs since 11/12/05 - when Bradley Beal was in 5th grade. Yikes

[Robz4000]

Gonna miss most of the game thanks to class. Picked the Spurs to lose this one or the next, so an L wouldn't surprise me.

That said, GSG!

[Libri]

Regardless of the score, if Errors doesn't play, Spurs have won.

[ace3g]

Speaking of Nets tomorrow night, looks like they are going all out

Brian Lewis ‏@NYPost_Lewis 2h Andray Blatche, Joe Johnson & Andrei Kirilenko all practice; #Nets expected to be full strength Thursday vs #Spurs. http://bit.ly/1jgJHdA

[timtonymanu]

Yeah I don't see the Spurs winning this one. The Wizards are a decent team. I'm still looking forward to this game though.

Trevor Booker is back & available vs SAS after attending funeral of grandfather, Mc'elroy, known around Carlisle, S.C., as "Mack." #wizards

[r0drig0lac]

Eh, I'd of started Splitter tonight. Diaw will struggle guarding either Gortat or Nene.

[heyheymymy]

[james evans]

i'm expecting wall to have in the 25-30 range of points while beal and ariza will hit wide open 3's all night.

I understand, but if you are going to kill us... at least try to make us look decent.

[r0drig0lac]

4th best team in the east, should be a good game
