Game Thread: Spurs @ Kings - Nov 9, 2012

Man, Blair's defense is so bad. I remember why I hated him in the starting 5 so much.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

If Cousins would stop pouting and pulling faces he might shoot better than 45%!

[timvp]

Let's see what the bench can do.

bill land: "spurs d needs to tighten up"

looks like it aint even ON, much less tighten up

[timtonymanu]

Splitter-Diaw now.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I think first 6 mins of game was a clear indication that we need Boris as a starter.

[DesignatedT]

Splitter-Diaw is fine but we need something better than Blair in the SL.

[Flawless]

I hope Mills and De Colo get some playing time

[Spurs Brazil]

defense is terrible. Kings scoring everything in the paint

[timvp]

Splitter is the only seven footer I've ever seen with a point guard arsenal of finishing moves.

[BanditHiro]

not boxing out cousins at all

[timtonymanu]

I think first 6 mins of game was a clear indication that we need Boris as a starter.

This is why the Spurs desperately need a back-up 4. Take Blair out of the starting lineup and you are giving Bonner the backup 4 spot.

[Reck]

Well I hope we dont lose to the ing Kings. That is all I'll say.

[ElNono]

not boxing out a freebie is unforgivable at this level

[capek]

Haha I know how it works. Just feel like responding tonight.

I know how you feel. The eyerolls weren't meant for you.

But I mean, talk about amnesia. Or just brand new Spurs fans? Spurs always start off ty and slow, SPAM anyone?? meh, I guess that's just how they enjoy their fandom...every season brand new, forget how the NBA works, how the Spurs work, and just watch!

[timvp]

Defensive rebounding remains horrible

[Malik Hairston]

Sacramento doesn't have any decent interior defenders, attack the paint..

james Johnson has no offensive game, stop letting him ing score, tbh..

Thornton = trouble for the Spurs..

[timvp]

Mills backup PG. Let's hope he takes advantage of it.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

C'mon Patty, PLAY WITH CONTROL!

[DesignatedT]

Weird game with weird lineups.

[Libri]

Splitter is the only seven footer I've ever seen with a point guard arsenal of finishing moves.

Would rather see him finish like a center, tbh.

[Johnny RIngo]

Grizz experiment an unmitigated failure. Need Boris in starting lineup, his passing, range and D makes a load of difference.

We really need to trade - either Splitter and baggage for Varejao, or some kind of package for Ilyasova who has had a slow start on his big contract but would fit perfectly with us.

The time to make that trade was last year. No way Cavs give up Andy for our garbage now.

[Sense]

Would rather see him finish like a center, tbh.

I think thats what he ment.

[timvp]

Would rather see him finish like a center, tbh.

Pretty true. It's a curse and a blessing ... probably in that order.

The team looks like it's playing in quick sand this year. We have the sleepiest team for lack of a better term. Spurs need to get back to upping the pace.
