Maybe we'll keep them under 130

 

[Strenuus]

San antonio knows how to keep double digit leads. Must be nice.

 

[Nikolokolus]

cant you at least pretend we can still win?

Only if I squint really hard, so the TV looks all fuzzy.

[Darkwebs]

Trade offer: our Leonard for their Leonard and then our Patty for their Patty.

 

[Darkwebs]

Tim to Noah monster oop!

 

[Nikolokolus]

Look on the bright side. At least Aldridge was doing jack and shit for the Spurs and not us.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Well that went about how I thought it would

 

[Strenuus]

That was never even close, even when we were up. Knowing our history this year, the lead never felt safe.

 

[Denny Crane]

Add Leonard and Dame and I don't think we win this one, either.

I think I'll probably watch the entire Australian Open coming up....haven't done that in a few years

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Only saw the last three minutes; what is the deal with the rebounds; we got beat bad there. I know rebounding is mostly an effort thing but is there something more here? What do the Spurs do differently?

Watch the first half on replay...we were great!

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Meh.

 

[BigGameDamian]

I'm looking forward to the lottery!

For me, tennis is one of the few other watchable sports other than basketball.

You and me both...I love tennis...they talk about stamina and long seasons but these guys can play 4 and a half hour singles matches in brutal heat..mad respect for tennis players

Same here as I love to watch the pros, been a player for 50 tears, played small college tennis and still compete in the Seniors

Coached better, play harder and with more of a 'big' attitude. Our leading rebounder is really a 220 lb SF playing PF and our backup center is usually 26' from the hoop....tough to rebound from there. That leaves Plumlee, Voleh and Davis as bigs with bulk who can actually bang inside and are playing in the key who played a total of 47 minutes.

Aminu has length but certainly not the size or toughness to be a major rebound. That he leads the team is pretty sad.

I didn't get to watch the game. Why did Napier, take more shots than Crabbe, and Moe, when they were shooting high percentages? Was he just not looking for anyone else? Or did he have to take a bunch of late shot clock heaves or something?

 

[PDXFonz]

I've turned off or not watched as many games this year as I have in the last 8 years combined. At least the past years teams have been entertaining even in losses. This year they just seem so down in these losses, like they don't even care to give it 100%. Gone are the days when you felt like the team was never out of it, and could always amount a comeback. Now it seems that no matter how big their lead is, you expect them to get careless and give it away. Shameful to say the least...

Because that is who Napier is. A volume shooter who isn't really a distributor. So more duplication.

 

[BlayZa]

was nye here yesterday but couldnt watch the game, i saw the half time score n didnt check again until this morning.

well.

shit.

this is getting beyond ridiculous.
