Well damn Memphis looks good

 

[Shanemansj13]

Good for them. The fans are very supportive. I hope they keep it up

 

[Shanemansj13]

Well, looks like Memphis got one. Good for them.

I don't know what happened, but after about the midway point in the first. They scored at will on San Antonio the rest of the half.

This is the Spurs. This is far from over

 

[richig07]

Got one what? A 4 point first half lead?

This game is over dude. You could tell which way it was going in the 2nd quarter. SA is out of rhythm and they have no answer for Randolph.

This is the Spurs. This is far from over

This lead will be at 20 in a few minutes. No rhythm on offense. Getting completely shredded defensively as well.

Good for Memphis. Interested to see if they can tie the series up. Would really be something after how bad they were beat in the first two. Impressive win tonight, a lot of guts

So many hot takes. In San Antonio they looked like hell. It's just the playoffs. Indiana looked pretty good for a while too tonight.

After what just happened in Indianapolis that's a pretty dumb thing to say.

Odds of lightning striking twice tonight are slim.

Spurs were sleep walking tonight.

I think you're probably right on this one.

Yeah, I bet on San Antonio... hence the cynicism.

I knew the generous odds on the money line was a trap, but I took them anyway because I figured they wouldn't lose straight up after the way they dominated the first two.

No idea what's going on, but all of the sudden the last two nights I can't win an NBA bet to save my life. I win betting soccer during the day and go back to where I started at night betting NBA. Last few days has been a loop of this occurring. I am in a pretty foul mood. lol

If those are real money bets you may have a gambling problem...soccer?

I have followed the EPL and Champions League my entire life. I am a fan.

Not sure how you could say that I have a "problem" from one post. lol. I like to sports bet, like many people... I'm not a degenerate. I have an allotted bank roll for it, I track my bets using spreadsheets and treat each bet as an investment. Degens give the past time a bad name.

Bad Parker showed up.
The series was pretty obvious. I made the prediction on the 3rd posting of this thread.
The whole series will depend on how Tony Parker plays.

It will be a short series if Parker is semi-competent. He doesnt really need to be good....only mediocre.
Memphis can extend it a few games if Parker is the worst player on the court.

zero assists and zero points through 3 quarters is about as bad as he can play so far.

No offense, just noticing you are really into gambling on sports. Sounds like you have it handled.

I want to blame LaMarcus for this, but he's having a good game. Still gonna blame him tho.

Dude that nose on Popovich is extremely discolored. No bueno.

Spurs will come out hot in Game 4. Pop knows his shit

I'm not really joking he looks like something isn't right. Especially in hi def.

He used to look like a funny grizzled old prospector, now he looks unwell.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

He is undergoing non-threatening skin cancer minor surgeries from a separate facial lesion.
Plus He boozes it up with heavy red wine every damn night which makes skin look sallow.
Plus, he lives in the brutal skin flaying sunshine of SA desert semi-arid climate oftentimes.

It is a bit disgusting, but shit happens when you get older and don't take care of your skin.
Red Wine and sunshine can make a 25 year old look like he/she is 55 in a few weeks.

My guess is he will retire after 2020 and the olympics, and head somewhere cloudy like Seattle.
