Game Thread: Spurs @ Trail Blazers - Dec. 13 @ 9:30 PM CST

[timtonymanu]

Solid minutes from Matty

Put him back in the rotation.
He can't be worse than Blair.

[SPIDER2311]

no can guard Lilliard full stop

[SpursRock20]

Green is so frustrating to watch sometimes

[Mugen]

Not sure if Manu's hurt as much as he is 35 playing on a b2b tbh.

Be careful what you wish for, tbh.

[Chinook]

Pop missed a teachable moment there. He should have put Green on Lillard instead of Parker. If Pop hesitates to go to Green in those situations, it's not going to help his confidence.

[Brunodf]

Spurs players never close the distance..... Horrible first half

[TheSkeptic]

Bonner, Blair, Diaw, Neal, Green...That's like 40 minutes of nothing right there.
Why does Pop start Blair?

[Chinook]

Or at least use Joseph on Lilliard. Try to get Cory in the habit of stopping opposing point guards.

[Texas_Ranger]

Damn we suck tonight... Diaw, Bonner and Blair are a great joke.

[Mugen]

i think CoJo starts the 2nd half on Lillard

[HI-FI]

Bonner and Blair are the easy targets imo. I'm more worried about how inconsistent Diaw and Manu are, Manu especially. hope his next contract is a good deal...

[Brunodf]

Lin, Hayward, Lillard. Every game some pg is killing us

[Boomersgold]

Hayward's a SG.

[Brunodf]

Hayward's a SG.

I thought Mo was the sg

[ace3g]

[Sean Cagney]

They are not winning this game tonight IMO, I won't even bother in the second half.

[TMTTRIO]

I really hope Manu decides to retire at the end of the season. It pains me to watch him struggle so much and lose a lot of the parts of his game that made him special. As sad as it would be to see him retire I don't want to see him play until he has nothing left (as we can see he's already headed that way). It's sad to see the last few years of his career he's been very injury prone and he's fading. It makes it amazing to see Tim playing like he's a 20 year old again.

Honestly, has Manu ever been consistent?

[Boomersgold]

I thought Mo was the sg

Hayward comes off the bench though.

[siraulo23]

gonna be a tough one again, if be a gutsy win if they can pull this one out

[Mugen]

TP/CoJo/Green/Diaw/Tim to start the 2nd half.

More Patty/Nando, less Gary. And Pop needs to find a way to end the game with Tiago/Timmy playing together.

When Neal isn't hitting his shots, his even more useless than Patty. He lacks the speed to guard quicker guards, such as Lillard.

[Mugen]

Brett Brown aint got time for Pop's jokes tbh.
