Agreed. Lot of big mistakes early on in the post with no Tim to bail them out. LMA has also played like more of a puss than I feared. Thankfully it looks like the Diaw/West combo may work well against them.
We were down 30 at Oracle last season in feb. with our full squad minus Tiago.
Next game we returned the favor at at&t.
Just one game.

They're at home, shooting great, getting the 50/50 balls, and their star players showed up.
I agree. Just a game where basketball things are happening. At the end of the season, we will be a different team.
You mean half of one game.
Regular season game as well.....Win some lose some....
Not taking anything away from this game. Aldridge has really underwhelmed though. I hope it's just the "back spasms."
Theres nothing to chill about we are getting exposed and punked. All of the spurs players now no they cant beat this team
i agree. ya'll have to chill. there's still time to switch bandwagons.
We have to play better than this.
And we will play better than this.
BS
They know they have played poorly.
In the playoffs we're not going to turn the ball over as much, we will have a better idea of how to defend them and we will have the best interior defender in the league back.
OP has a point.
tbh this gs team is still full of tryhard gotry even after winning the * le last year. they will treat every game vs spurs like a playoff game. doesn't account for getting assblasted by 25+ but I bet the mulatto brothers have circled this game on their calendar for months...
OP DOES have a point, but I honestly don't think we have the athleticism, moxy or scoring potential to hang with these guys.
Look at how deer-in-the-headlights all of our guys look when they happen to get the ball.
The Warriors have them scared.
The cliff jumping after this game is going to be epic...
Seriously though, does anyone really think Pop was coaching for the win? Danny plays 14 minutes, Tony 18... Kawhi getting only 6 shots? This was a feeling out process, and the quip about the players being "fired up" was a total CIA move.
Don't be a because they are bending us over.
We ALL, aka everyone interested in professional basketball, had this game marked on our calendars.
The Spurs just got intimidated.
I'm not feeling very chill right now tbh. I was expecting a loss but the bench being outscored by their bench is completely unacceptable. I hate watching the Spurs force quick, bad shots up that allows the Warriors to run out and get easy baskets, I hate watching 15 turnovers in a half, and being down 30 after 3 quarters is just embarrassing to watch.
Act like somebody, got.Theres nthing t
This game will get the Spurs going again...
curry is unstoppable.
We never saw any ball movement never looked like the Spurs
This game isn't worth a meltdown, either.
- LMA was in foul trouble the 1st half. He got to play the entire 2nd half, and the Spurs won said half.
- Cavs have been playing motivated post-Blatt.
- Cavs are a terrible matchup for the Spurs sans Duncan. They have a top stretch 4 and every wing of theirs can penetrate. This isn't the hand-check era. It's nearly impossible for any perimeter defender to keep a good penetrator out of the lane. Best a perimeter defender can do is funnel them into rim protectors, which the Spurs obviously lack right now (it would've been nice to see how Boban fared).
- Again, no Tim Duncan. Despite his average per game stats, he's still a top 2 or 3 most important Spur. It'd be like the Warriors losing Raymond.
We weren't winning anything without Duncan anyway, so this game and even the GS game aren't worth melting down over. You can't expect the Spurs to be the same 70 win pace team they were when they're missing a top 4 player of all-time, even if he is 40.
Leave the Duncan part aside, the slow regression of Parker/Manu is starting to take a toll .
Please...Just tell us that Pop won't to play zone every game to try to prevent the penetrations and compensate the lack of rim protection.
