Series Thread: 2)Golden State Warriors vs 7)San Antonio Spurs

jinx muthafucka...

If the Lakers would have kept Swappy P they would have made the playoffs. What the hell was Magic thinking?

 

[ManuForever]

W’s got a good draw. Spurs are awful offensively, the worst team in the playoffs offensively easily

Absolutely no playmakers on the offensive end. Nobody can do squat besides Aldridge and Manu at times. If Aldridge is off, they're doomed. It's Aldridge or nothing.

 

[Montalban]

No. His own personal team of doctors has yet to clear him to return.

He has played his last game as a Spur. Its clear he does not want to be there and Popovich will not put up with a bitch like that.

 

[msgkings322]

No. Its just going to be very, very tough for them to win the series down 3 - 1. They could win a second game perhaps.

So still at Ws in 6, got it

 

[Montalban]

Hopefully they will weather the first 3 or 4 minutes of the 3rd quarter when the Spurs will come out smoking.

Then he's soft? Come on, if this was Durant or LeBron doing the exact same thing you would be ripping them hard.

I'm curious what @TheKlaw and @Hornsstampede2.0 think about the Kawhi situation. I know you think the media is jumping to conclusions but isn't he medically ready to play? Isn't he being a bitch?

I wouldn't go as far as to call Kawhi a bitch. He's never been a pain in the ass type player during his career. So he feels he's not ready to go. Nobody know his body better than Kawhi. And the Spurs team doctors? When has a team doctor ever taken a players side over the organization that's paying him? A team doctor's obligation is to the franchise, not the player.

I think so. That was my original thought and that's a pretty dominant series when you win twice as many games as your opponent does.

I still think something is going on there and Leonard is done in San Antonio

I don't disagree but if KD or LeBron especially pulled this shit people would be rioting in the streets about how soft they are.

I agree. He doesn't want to play there anymore for whatever reason, so he told his doctors to just keep saying he's not ready. Kytrie almost did the same shit.

 

[Montalban]

Nice hustle by McGee

 

[Montalban]

Thompson is hitting his shot today.

 

[Montalban]

Uh oh. If Green starts hitting that shot the game is over.

 

[Montalban]

Cool that both Thompson brothers are in Oakland now.

 

[Montalban]

McGee is playing well.

 

[msgkings322]

Bad call on McGee there

 

[Wamu]

You could be right. And w/ how strangely this is playing out if there is a problem it wouldn't surprise me.

 

[msgkings322]

I always liked Trayce Thompson, he's not turning into a star the way I thought he might but there's still time.

 

[Montalban]

I agree. He doesn't want to play there anymore for whatever reason, so he told his doctors to just keep saying he's not ready. Kytrie almost did the same shit.

Popovich will not tolerate that. I bet he'd rather lose every game than have a player on his team who is selfish.
