[From Downtown]

I guess tree are worst ways to start a NBA season

[spurs10]

Pop will scold Bertans for that 3 and Simmons for that dunk.

I'm not so sure!

Thank you Valvoline based...

Valvoline for the win!

Sad? the outtahere

Yeah you know it!

Bertans tied for league league in shooting percentage.

Right on!! Congrats and welcome to the NBA Bertans!

[Mugen]

Not bad tbh.

[GSH]

Oh, man, that's right. The Dubs have a 4 game losing streak going.

[Arcadian]

What the Spurs just did to the Warriors:



ing nasty.

warriors... gots

Anyone who thinks the Dynamic Duo of Leonard and Aldridge isn't a great pairing

And this team has depth, too...

[jiggy_55]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't understand. I thought Dedmon looked like a totally different player tonight. That's all the Spurs need out of him. If that's what he's going to look like, I feel a lot better about the season.

Who is it that keeps bringing me down by talking about consistency?

He looked decent tonight, but there's no denying the initial comment: his hands are awful, he can't catch most passes to him or fumbles the ball even though most were clean passes

[Pound the rock]

Which lineup was the most lethal?

[Uriel]

1-0. Spurs by a ing ton. Took turns doing a Bukkake on the entire Dubs team...

Parker -12 and Gasol -13 in a game the Spurs won by 29. That is hard to do.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Who else is rewatching the game already?

some of us in america need sleep soon

[BillMc]

You're a soldier.

8 AM here and I haven't been to bed.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

I was clearly hacked.

[313]

Which lineup was the most lethal?

The ones excluding Anderson

I didn't see him miss a clean pass the whole night, and everything else he did was really really solid for a backup center.

A few things:

Obviously we have to temper expectations. Spurs probably aren't that good and obviously GS isn't a bad team.

However, as fans with no analysis that was fun as !

I also can't wait for the Westbrook GIF potential this year. It will easily be the new Crying Jordan. Especially when GS slips up

Bedtime......

Bertans tied for league league in shooting percentage.

Spurs have 2 tied for that honor: Bertans and Kyle.

Your guy can shoot the rock. I am very excited that he got off to this start. Even 3 minutes in garbage time cannot hurt his confidence.

[Ditty]

Spurs death lineup:

Ginobili/Simmons/Green/Leonard/Aldridge

[DPG21920]

at Manu's reaction to Simmons dunk. He got excited then realized "oh damn, don't celebrate to hard, don't piss anyone off".

Was cool to see the team not back down at all. There were no moments where you felt they shrunk or even wanted to. Simmons dunk sort of punctuated that at ude. Same with all the hard fought rebounds from Manu, Lee, Kawhi, etc...

[Silver&Black]

Spurs shot 23-26 from the charity stripe tonight. Need to keep that going...

[PÒÓCH]

So good to have something other than politics to talk about tomorrow around the water cooler. Pop is the best coach ever.

[Emperor]

Which lineup was the most lethal?

Mills/Simmons/Kawhi/Aldridge/Doesn't matter.

Yeah, I was flying until I saw Simmons in those last few minutes, looking like Simmons of the last few months. The dunk at the end didn't help much - he's always been able to do that. I just kept remembering you talking about "ups and downs" and "consistency" and depressing like that.
