Hoping the Spurs finish Harden tonight. They're gonna have enough of a hard time playing GS without an extra game on em.

Just advance to the slaughter, already.

LMAO.
I wish there were more and/or longer episodes.

 

[Anth0ny]

woooooooooow kawhi out damn


I just want to see full power Spurs vs Warriors in the conference finals damn it.

 

[Tommy DJ]

Leonard out

Blowout inc :/

It could be a blessing in disguise. If there's one team that can play without their star player, its the Spurs. They're a team with serious problems still but without Parker and Kawhi, there's more minutes and balls to be handed around.

Aldridge has been pretty rubbish this season but he could perform better if he's the clear 1st option on offense. If he, Green and Mills bring it tonight, the Spurs could seriously end up winning.

 

[Bread]

Time for Aldridge to prove that he is the only star on the Spurs

did they cut danny green?

 

[Sanjuro]

Is this the night Houston hacks the game?

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Aww man, hope that Leonard doesn't have any complications. Injuries suck.

 

[Sanjuro]

Aww man, hope that Leonard doesn't have any complications. Injuries suck.

I'm not sure we would even know. He looks like Bob Morton from Robocop.

 

[Starphoenix]

Welp. Spurs are going to get the pipe tonight I guess. Hopefully Simmons shows up.

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

Honestly. I think the rockets are going to come out like fucking lightning and it'll be over by the end of the first. Can see 3 after 3 after 3. Godspeed, spurs.


Edit: I hope I'm wrong of course. This series+watching at work has not been good for my stress.

 

[Sanjuro]

JVG is never going to coach again, is he?

 

[Hyperactivity]

JVG is never going to coach again, is he?

I think the rockets were one of the few teams.he still had interest in, but he's at the point where he wants to be a coach with greater control over the franchise and it's moves, which is eeehhhh

 

[bbd23]

the arena looks empty?

 

[Sanjuro]

Wow. Houston has no fans in atte...OH. They are red.

 

[spyder_ur]

I still think SA can hang with Houston in this game.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

If Harden is going to be on Pau or LMA, they need to destroy him.

 

[Line_HTX]

Fuck that lucky turd Simmons.

 

[Cooter]

If HOU can't win an elimination game at home with Leonard sitting I don't know what to say but they are pretenders.

 

[Cornbread78]

Edit: I hope I'm wrong of course. This series+watching at work has not been good for my stress.

Yeah, watching the ticker and refreshing google/yahoo on my phone to get the score is ridiculas.

 

[Line_HTX]

Exactly. No Parker, no Leonard. THERE IS NO EXCUSE. Have to fucking win. Stop spaghetti'ing.

 

[RootCause]

woooooooooow kawhi out damn


I just want to see full power Spurs vs Warriors in the conference finals damn it.

Sadly it doesn't look like it will happen this year. Was hoping for the spurs to win the chip.

 

[Cooter]

These fans seem strangely quiet for this magnitude of a game. Maybe I'm just used to Oracle but something seems off.

 

[RandomSeed]

Man, the ESPN app/streaming is pure shit. Constantly stopping and buffering on a fast connection.

 

[Line_HTX]

Simmons and Murray need to pay for that shit.

 

[Tommy DJ]

Goodness, Aldridge definitely came to play today.

And lol Murray definitely deserved that.

 

[perfectchaos007]

I was told Aldridge is garbage. Wtf is happening?

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

What the fuck am I seeing

Who is this post play Aldridge with high IQ

 

[Hyperactivity]

Damn, $1 beer and soda didn't work again. Even got Travis Scott t-shirts... Damn. Must have needed the nachos and hot dogs too

 

[Hyperactivity]

Aldridge is starting to give me 2014 ptsd flashbacks

 

[Jarate]

Aldridge is better then Kawhi, do you guys even watch basketball?

 

[mjp2417]

Houston looks so flat and lifeless. Lou Williams has been pretty much useless since it became clear that SAS wasn't going to bite on the garbage fouls.

 

[metalslimer]

Yeah it made so much sense to not play Decker at all game 5...

 

[Shamrock7r]

What the fuck am I seeing

Who is this post play Aldridge with high IQ

Whyyyyy wasnt he doing this shit with any consistency before. I'll take it though

 

[duxstar]

That pass by Aldridge was pretty spiffy

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

Of course some no name scrub (I'm only half kidding relax) comes off the bench to save Houston from a horrible first.


Fucking huge defensive effort so far though how long can it last?

 

[Mrbob]

Time to trade Kawhi.

To the Bulls.

For Mirotic.

 

[mjp2417]

Aldridge has been absolutely fantastic

 

[Line_HTX]

Ariza, Anderson, and Williams fucking step up please.

The fuck are these guys doing...

 

[Hyperactivity]

THANK YOU DEKKER.

that's what dekker and Harrell are great for. Giving the lineup energy when we're playing lackadaisical. Still stretching tte floor, but also being lengthy, crashing the boards, etc. We would've won game 5 had we used him and give others some rest.

 

[Tommy DJ]

Murray definitely needs to hit the gym lol.

 

[TuXx]

D'antoni needs to be stripped of his NBCA award if Pop is able to pull this off without Leonard and Parker

 

[metalslimer]

Glad i didnt go to this

Pure embarrassment.

 

[Cooter]

Ruh-oh

 

[Lkr]

As a player, I'll take DWade tbh. If not for Shaq and Pau Gasol, Kobe ain't got rings. Now I don't care for the rings argument, but that shit needs to be said before anyone else brings anything up.

If not for Shaq and LeBron, Wade ain't got rings.

I like seeing D'Antoni fail so I'm glad San Antonio is up big even without Leonard

 

[FZZ]

Yikes at this game right now

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

WHERE HAS THIS BALL MOVEMENT BEEN

FUCK

So we have to have our best player injured to see this spurs basketball again?? Really?!?

 

[MugiwaraCole]

This is delicious.

If not for Shaq and LeBron, Wade ain't got rings.

I like seeing D'Antoni fail so I'm glad San Antonio is up big even without Leonard

Who does Kobe have rings without?

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

I was about to walk out the room if they hit another 3.

 

[spyder_ur]

I'm not surprised to see Dekker early. It's simply too much to ask Harden to play 40+ minutes, do most of the ball handling, and bang with Pau/LMA on the other end.

That Spurs bench run was incredible. Absolutely embarrassing 5-6 defensive possessions there for Houston.


Also: I am completely stunned that a D'antoni team is having issues with shot selection,bench rotations, and commitment/effort/technique on the defensive end in the NBA playoffs. Stunned.
