Game Thread: Spurs @ Knicks (2:30 PM CT) Sponsored by UFC 209 (Oakley vs Dolan)

The rest of the regular season is lookin' to be meaningless. We're not catching the Dubs and Houston is not catching us. Only drama is will we stay ahead of the Cavs, what bracket will the CLips end up in, and who is our first round opponent.

[Nathan89]

Is LMA's only hope now the idea that he should perform against 6'5 Draymond? He plays like vs every team and it doesn't even matter who they put on him.

[boutons_deux]

national TV of course, no NFL, no MLB, just spurs ing up on broadcast TV

[weeks]

it's the annual stupid road loss in NY

[cd98]

Very nice of the Spurs to help NY break their losing streak.

[sasaint]

Do Philly want Green and Mills? I'm listening.

Doesn't matter. PATFO will stand pat. They like their hand.

[FkLA]

Kawhi was 1-5 and just commited two turnovers in a row when I wrote that.

And that shot was a dead shot.

Then you should say he is playing like , not he is .

It wasn't a great shot but the team wasted 18 secs trying to run a play for LMA, only to have him back up once and kick it out to Kawhi 30 ft from the basket. I'd put the blame on Poop and LMA before I put it on Kawhi on that possession, tbh.

[SAGirl]

Melo more balls than LMA!!!!

Pretty much.. Plus, SPAM of course...

We do need Pau back tho, gotta get him re-integrated and what not. The all star break looks like it's needed

[wildbill2u]

We shoot 36%, 21% and 81%. Way off our standards and lose by 4 on the road against a team that was desperate for a win..

Oh well, sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you.

[RD2191]

This team has no consistency. Doesn't bode well for the playoffs.

Well if the Clippers get the seventh seed with Paul in the lineup by then, the first round might be meaningless too.

[TimDunkem]

How can anyone trash Leonard when he's the only one who showed up???

You can't say that when you're facing a team that's giving up an average of 120 points over their last 4 home games. This Spurs team is garbage.

You can't defend this . A contender shouldn't be losing to the Knicks this late in the season.

[SASdynasty!]

I appreciate you defending Parker, (tho probably a bit overboard) because the hate on him is re ed on this thread. So there's somewhat of a balance

But that comment is just foolish dude. Manu is one of the clutchest guys we've seen, and Kawhi has shown the ability to hit big shots many times.

Totally disagree. Manu only is looked at as clutch because he's had so many opportunities. Most of the time he throws up a brick or an airball. Even when he does hit a GW, a lot of the time he missed the one in regulation, etc. Dude has had so many opportunities it's insane.

[skulls138]

Man LMA right now. Game after game they try spoon feeding this dude and it's nothing but brick after brick. Tired of his lazy soft play always jogging slowly down the court and . man

I disagree. Hes playing within the game and doing alot of little stuff which IMO will lead to better stuff.

Im ok with this loss. We cant win all of them and this was NYs day.

common sense is not allowed here

Oh well -- time to start drinking.

Didn't deserve an all star. He's fallen off a cliff when considering star players are concerned...

Lol. Don't cry when they bounce in the 1st round.

Truth

[GSH]

The hate for him on ST is re ed. But today? I'm not sure you could hate on him enough today. When your starting PG puts up zero on three attempts, you're ed. That's not just a poor performance. That's a whole new level of suckage.
