*** Official Game Thread 7/82: Spurs at Clippers (11/5) 7:30 PM CT, 2:30 AM Riga ***

Embiid 4-4 from 3 & 4 blocks:

I cant believe they didnt let him take the last shot. They've gone to Henderson a couple times this season and both times he flopped and fell down and they didnt even get a shot off.

[GSH]

We are lulling the Clips into false sense of security.

When they get in the locker room and have to deal with the way the Spurs clamped down to keep them under 80 for the half, they're going to freeze up.

[Chinook]

That's what I'm saying; when he plays bad the bench plays bad and his bad games continue to become much more common. Isn't helping that LMA has been a disaster too.

There's plenty of blame to go around. But Pop shouldn't be playing him. Simmons or Anderson would've been better. This is no longer a team where a bunch of guys need Manu to hold their hands. So he needs to stop trying to grab them all the time.

Dude's on my fantasy team. Can't believe the Spurs passed on him.

[Darius Bieber]

It's one thing to get beat. It's another to get -slapped. And still another to look this ing confused on defense. At least with Duncan there was a defensive anchor. The only anchor we have is Manu.

And Dedmon

[Mnky]

LMA has one rebound...

Hes been guarding Griffin on the perimeter all night, and that dude isnt missing.. Dont see many opportunities coming his way tbh.

[GSH]

All of this at home, no less.

I said it earlier - it's a damn conspiracy for Silver to make the Spurs play all these home games.

Spurs need better ball movement.

[Chris]

Spurs need better ball movement.

We need our point guard

[ginobilized]

Hopefully Pop is showing them the Alec Baldwin speech from Glengary Glenross at halftime

It is a very strange season so far

[Kawhitstorm]

LMA has one rebound...

He is averaging 5 rebounds for the past 4 games aka since the Warriors game.

[ElNono]

need to play defense, tbh... pick your poison... either you let Griffin score at will or you leave Red open... can't do both...

[100%duncan]

3/6 9pts 50% shooting works for me.

Oh wow, those Aldridge contested fadeaways sure is the solution

[HarlemHeat37]

Just got home..73 points?!?!?! what the ?

Tim pls

Re is on, Moute is confident so the Cripples are going to run the PnR to death w/ the double screens & get anything they want.

It's not only this game. He's been underwhelming at rebounding to start the season. Which is why a lot are critical of him. It's the little things he doesn't do. He's a one trick pony. Shoot jump shots and that's it.

Tim pls

Tim couldn't stop Blake in 2015.

[objective]

Everyone was trash. Aldridge being an out of shape diva with poor body language. Kawhi turning into Kawhrique complete with poor defense. Turnobili. Bad Simmons. Inexperienced Bertans. Bad fouls Dedmon. Reckless gambles Lapprovittola. Etc.

[spurtech09]

can't even hit a open 3

[Austin_Toros]

Might as well play Murray. Not like this game can get any worse.

I agree. I'd rather someone else gets to learn from this experience. Maybe they do no better, but there is a chance they do grow up. Manu overplayed is no good. Pop has to learn that but he doesn't....

Passed on him?

[Chris]

Mills smh

[bklynspursfan]

Had numbers and turned it over
