Ugh!

Nah..

The barely coherent ramblings and emotional outbursts of some of these guys has entertainment value that is lost if you use the ignore function. Excellent examples of that in this very thread...

You truly are a bonefied, diarrhea of the mouth, Baynes lovin twirp who doesn't know from shinola but acts like a self absorbed monkey who's come to believe 90% of the stink that drools from his airhole.

That's right, I don't make excuses. I don't blame the refs because the Spurs lack the aggression to get to the free throw line in critical situations against defense oriented teams like the Thunder. That's the downfall of shooting perimeter jumpshot and playing against a team with a shotblocking presence in the paint. Refs are human. They aren't going to catch every foul all the time. If you put yourself in a position where the refs can alter the outcome of the game, then you have nobody to blame but yourelf. Stop turning the ball over and hit your damn shots.

I don't blame Stern because the Spurs have to play 5 games in 7 days. All teams go through tough stretches. It's not a conspiracy to keep the Spurs from reaching the finals. I don't hear your tank mouth spouting off when the Spurs win those 5 games in 7 nights the majority of the time. No, that's when it becomes all about the depth. Only when the Spurs lose a game does the word "tired" enter the frey. Outside of Duncan and Ginobili, the team isn't that old and Pop does a great job managing minutes throughout the season.

Btw, I don't think you know what a diatribe is which in part, is why you're so damn clueless.

So you double down on the stupidity that I was talking about. Bravo.

When I say that putting it in terms of excuse and blame is the mindset of an emotional asshat, the answer is not to demonstrate you are the asshat by repeating the paradigm.

OKC really is the only team in the league that I'm actually pretty nervous about, I'm usually really confident about the spurs but I'd really rather not see them. Yes Durant/Westbrook get a lot of calls, but Durant is just too good. The diaw experiment doesn't work on Durant as well as it does on LeBron and they just play so fast and frantic.

we definitely wouldn't get swept like we did in the regular season and i'd be confident going in that the spurs would win, but not nearly as confident as I usually am. Also its almost hilarious how random scrubs just go off on their team against us almost every time. It's become consistent that reggie jackson will destroy us (not that he's a scrub anymore but still) fish usually hits some 3's, etc.

I can't imagine Manu being that big of a help. OKC applied pressure and the Spurs crumbled under it, Manu is usually more turnover prone when pressured. Not a diss on Manu alone, anyone with his play-style is usually more prone to turnovers.

OKC is just a bad-matchup, I don't understand why that's hard for some people to realize. They apply great pressure on defense and blow by defenders ever possession on offense. With that said, it's not like the Spurs have to beat this team in order to make the finals. The Clippers/Grizzlies/Warriors/Mavericks just may do that for us.

I'm still pretty worried about the Houston match-up right now. I can only hope Pop knows how to get into Harden/Howard's head throughout the series, neither one of them should be called the textbook definition of 'mature'.

Pretty off-topic, but could anyone see Washington making the ECF? All they'd have to do is beat a team like Toronto then hope the Pacers completely implode, something that isn't far from the stretch of imagination.

Wow, FuzzyLumpkins's penetrated all in a 's ass in this thread, tbh..raw, too..

[Malik Hairston]

Ugh, no. This is what happens when the Spurs get swept by a better team and conceited Spurs fan try to spin it as if the Spurs wanted to lose the game on purpose. The Spurs can't match OKC's athleticism and they don't have shotblockers in the paint. It's easy to say on paper Diaw can shut down Ibaka, Leonard can shutdown Durant and Green can do the same to Westbrook but it never happens that way and their role players can step up and knock down shots. They basically shutdown a healthy Spurs team in the second half without their Parker stopper. If there's a team that doesn't care about HCA, its OKC.

Be honest, how angry were you last night, tbh?..

[td4mvp21]

I admit I thought the Spurs were toast this series, but LOL at Parker stopper not even playing after Game 2.

[look_at_g_shred]

Some bad takes in here tbh...

It's quite aggravating to log onto ST after a loss. Your team just had an 19 game winning streak, and you want to quit on the team at the first sign of adversity. Sure the thunder may have our number this year; however, it's April not May. A fifth game in 7 nights and we led for the first half. They didn't just come out and destroy us from the tip. Plus, it's not even a sure thing we would face them in the playoffs. This team is better than last year. Can we just enjoy what may be TD's last season, and not quit on the team when we don't have a double digit win streak? Is that too much to ask ST?

[Malik Hairston]

Picking OKC over Spurs isn't a bad take, I had the Thunder as favorites over the Spurs, too, it's a logical take..

Hoops Czar has spent 2 years saying the Spurs were inferior to the Thunder, which is fine, but he has also spent 2 years saying teams like the ing Nuggets, Rockets, Warriors and other teams were better than the Spurs, and that the Spurs had no chance to win the championship..

I have never seen a poster have so many poor takes over the years, yet possess a smug at ude..
