Dejounte did a bunch of nothing out there

[BatManu20]

Devin “Steph Curry” Vassell can’t miss from 3.

[BatManu20]

Spurs on a 25-2 run

[couchman]

It almost looks like this game is already over. Portland running a G league lineup out there

[cd98]

Portland is incredibly good at tanking. This is a lesson in what every team should be doing to get into the best lotter position when it is clear they are not playoff material.

Haven't watched a whole lot of Spurs games this year, but this new commentator doesn't seem to vibe well with Sean. Don't know if he's a big Spurs/basketball fan, or just a stats guy. I miss Bill Land, lol. Let's get Matt Bonner out there as well!

[cd98]

DJM should be on the shelf with a "sore knee" for the rest of the season.

[Robz4000]

Murray's three is looking good

[SPURt]

Murray going straight nuclear

[poopbox]

Dejounte with 3 straight and 1 mixtape 3's

[Seventyniner]

it, if you're gonna try and win and they're gonna tank this hard, put up 200 on those ers. Show no mercy.

[TDomination]

Now that I like seeing

Very nice murray!!

[lefty20]

Damn Murray

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

If DJ can add a bit of that off the dribble 3 next year it'll open his driving lanes more.

[SPURt]

This an insanely bad Portland team. Spurs playing them another two times in the next to weeks isn’t gonna help their draft position

[Rito3d30]

the tank is over
very likely will get into the playin smh

I'm not really sure what tanking is getting them. No player in this draft is going to come in and help Dame in his rookie year. I guess they get a guy to be their new franchise guy when Dame inevitably ask for a trade.

Tanking doesn't really seem to work for teams who already have a franchise guy. GS tanked and ended up with Wiseman who probably won't end up playing 200 games in GS.

[heyheymymy]

lol JRich just did a flying Bowen into some fan

Spurs need to watch this game after and learn from it so hopefully next year we get a top 4 pick

They can trade that pick and if it's a top 4 pick I am sure they will get a much better player then if they drafted 9 or 10

[Degoat]

I think they just said that’s the most 3s the spurs have made in a half In team history lol

[paperboy77]

Going for the Spurs win, lol.

Keldon Johnson still with a more mechanical shot than what I like.. hopefully he improves on that during the offseason. Shot is looking like a combination of Amare's as well as Horry.

When will defenses wake up about 3pt shooters? Most anticipate it will be a flyby only. Gotta challenge that dude. Yeah take a foul but you'll win the mind game. Shooters ain't worried about these days. (3pt shooters to be exact.)

True but I do not think they are going to get the caliber of player they need if they draft that pick. They need a legit star player to put next to Dame. What team with a star is trading that for a number 3 or 4 pick?

[SPURt]

Murray having the best half of his career, this is a fun team to watch against the Blazers.

[cd98]

I can't even take this game seriously. It's like, wow the Spurs look awesome, but they are playing a team that isn't trying. I see more effort in the all-star game.
