Game Thread: Spurs vs Cavs -- Thurs. (1/14) - 7:00PM CST (3:00AM Riga Time)

[Nathan89]

Hope you're being sarcastic...

Of course I am.

[Brazil]

Parker will slow down second half... He will be gassed IMO now if we can get Kawhi lma and Tim rolling offensively second half we have a shot.

but again I agree with Nono we should have given the day off to our old legs IMO

[Trainwreck2100]

the difference in this game is jr smith's awful shots going in that 1st quarter. Everyone needs to make their damn layups though

[RD2191]

After Lebron pwned him in 2013. Wash at best for Leonard.

Lol. No.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Down 6 is a godsend considering that first half.

Hopefully LMA shows up

[UNT Eagles 2016]

For sure LMA was the worst disappointment. Kawhi was solid defensively, one of the reasons we are only down 6, together with Tony putting the scoring on his back for a stretch.
LMA has sucked. If he wants a ring, this won't cut it.

LMA would have a better chance at a ring signing in LA right now tbh.

[DeRozan m8]

About time Parker helped us out properly, he's just paying back all the bail outs he's received, including finals.

[resistanze]

He has the worst defender on the Cavs guarding him & Love is playing help defense so he's doing the right thing by being aggressive.

So he needs to score 60 for Spurs to win? How about Kawhi and LMA showing up?

[SAGirl]

Something is wrong with KL. Seems so out of it.

He was terrible against Detroit TBH. I do wonder if something personal is up. Two games in a row is unusual. He hasn't had those all season. His only other really poor game was Toronto, and he had literally been sick.
This? I expected him to come with fire specially after the Detroit game.

[DeRozan m8]

Having said that, the rest of the starters today...wtf is this ?

[$pursDynasty]

We're Spurs fans so no. Unlike the cat krew we don't hate when one of our own is playing well.

RD is man enough to admit when TP is playing well. Less honest posters go invisible man until they can. I respect that; call players out when they play like crap but give respect when it is due.

[GSH]

He caught DeAndre's pneumonia bug?

Two games in a row, his offense looks tentative and weak. If he doesn't have a bug, the Spurs have a problem.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

How are they only down 6?

[Kawhitstorm]

Second quarter was much better on both ends, especially defensively. Kawhi needs to be more aggressive in the 2nd half. Timmy doesn't have legs tonight, so it's up to Kawhi/LMA to help Tony out.

Wouldn't mind playing West against Love, tbh. LMA/West then Tim/Diaw probably works best.

[james evans]

We're Spurs fans so no. Unlike the cat krew we don't hate when one of our own is playing well.

I know I don't. What kind of dumbass would be upset that a spurs player is playing well. I love it when Parker shuts my mouth and proves me wrong. We win. Why would I not want the spurs to win?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Barkley... ing jinxing us

[Brazil]

What an half by Tony tbh

[boutons_deux]

lma choking in big game

[james evans]

Now we're down 11

6

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Second quarter was much better on both ends, especially defensively. Kawhi needs to be more aggressive in the 2nd half. Timmy doesn't have legs tonight, so it's up to Kawhi/LMA to help Tony out.

Offense was atrocious. Way too many contested jumpers and tentativeness.

[kaji157]

lma choking in big game

not only him

[atoyotagaspedal]

I really hope LMA steps it up in the second.

[Nathan89]

James sitting the last 40 secs really shows just how tired he is from all the action they are running through him. Maybe he'll miss some shots as the game goes on.

[ceperez]

All this talk about Aldridge not getting opportunities is all BS. David West creates his own opportunities.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

this azithromycin... ing up my stomach
