I'll admit, that made me chuckle out loud.

I'm updating it with a few more users. Slow work day.

The Spurs better be pissed off about yesterday's choke and win today. Russ will most likely get another triple double so we better be ready.

This is right up there with game 5 Detroit for me...The latter is always going to be special because I was 14 and so there was more emotions..but this was close.

Greatest half in Spurs history IMO..

Pop with one of the best coaching moves in the history of the league at halftime, tbh, with the lineup change..

Spurs down by 60 in the first quarter.

Kawhi scores 87 straight points to give the Spurs a 3 point lead. Apa proclaims him Jesus incarnate and begins to walk to San Diego in a pilgrimage to lay at the feet of his savior.

Halftime score is 98-95. Darius Bieber states that the Spurs are the worst team in the history of the universe. Robdiaz posts a photo of himself leaning off the edge of a bridge and muttering about the impending sweep.

Tony Parker gives the Spurs a 12 point lead with back to back 4 point plays midway through the 3rd. He then misses a jumper lowering his FG% to 80% for the game on 30 shots with 16 assists. Fkla and Malik create 47 threads about what a terrible game he's having before looking into each other's eyes and realizing that they were meant for each other. Clipper Nation follows them with a camcorder in hand.

Danny Green, Patty Mills, and Boris Diaw miss 9 three point shots in a row. Each. Apa states it's Parker's fault for passing to them when they're wide open instead of running the offense to "create a natural shot". Parker then dunks on Abaka causing Brazil to go streaking in appreciation.

Spurs are down 2, Westbrook is on the verge of the NBA's first 20/20/20 game with 18 points on 60 shot attempts (prompting yet another thread by Malik about the greatest performance of all-time for a player who shot under 20% for a game), drives with 5 seconds left to get his stats.

Duncan blocks the shot so hard it flies down to the other end of the court and hits nothing but net.

Spurs win 167-166. Confetti and burritos fall from the stands. Charles Barkley declares that he is returning to basketball and rips off his suit, stating that he's lost 75 pounds and is in perfect physical condition. Kenny comments it looks more like 200, and Barkley picks up Ernie and flat-footed dunks him through the hoop.

Westbrook declares he is "coach of the universe" before knifing a nearby courtside reporter. Stephen A Smith proclaims he is just DOING WHAT SHOULD BE DONE and blames the reporter for not getting out of the way.

Duncan stands at mid-court with arms outstretched and the crowd chants Go Spurs Go for 7 hours straight.

Yes.

[spurtech09]

WestGOAT and the Thunder by 40+.

Thanks again.

The lack of faith so many have in the Spurs is disturbing. "They're done"....Nah

The last sentence reminds me of last June 15!! The rest sounds about exactly right!!
Tonight we will destroy these Okie interloper without mercy! Go Spurs Go!

[FaM0us Skins]

Lets go!

[Pound the rock]

I would like to see some solid D, ball movement and someone pressure Westbrook on the offensive end, he's going to get his but make him work through screens,get him tired, we have to have this one, not the right time to start a losing streak

That would be an epic game. Setting DVR just in case.

[Malik Hairston]

Should establish Splitter early again, tbh, have to expose Kanter like they did to Dirk early in last night's game..
