AD didn't have a night off yet

Vogel isn't very smart. If there is anyone who need minutes, it is JR, Waiters, and Morris but he wanted to give minutes with guys who been with the team all year lonh

Go look at the Lakers offensive statistics in the bubble. Here's a hint. This poor offensive play didn't just start vs OKC on wednesday

Maybe you can start panicking on behalf of the Lakers fans, because we as sure arent.

These Solomon Hill minutes are nasty @TurnUpTheHeat

Spo can't look me in the eye and tell me he's better than Leonard

K. Get your bets in on the round one upset then.

My fault. You right. Lakers are playing amazing basketball.

Those guys are hitting on all cylinders. Man those roles players can't miss anything....My apologies for pointing out the obvious for anyone who actually watched their 6 games in the bubble. Guess I should have just assumed all the Lakers players are intentionally missing their shots. Come game 1 in front of their home fans, I'm sure they'll turn the light switch on and things will be back to normal like how it was back in March

No you got it bro. They suck. This is how they will play in the playoffs. Easy money, betting on them sucking

My god this guy Spoelstra really going to fool around and allow the Heat to drop to 6th and have the Celtics wipe the floor with them in round 1.

What a disgusting coaching effort in the 4th quarter tonight.

Down 2 going to the 4th and you start the 4th with Solomon Hill, KO, Gabe Vincent, Iggy, and Crowder. Like where did you seriously expect the offense to come from. Isn't that hard to stagger your best offensive players. No reason to have Bam, Tyler, and Duncan all on the bench at the same time tonight.

 

[bksballer89]

Only good thing I took out of the game tonight is Herro is wayyyyy better at PG than Nunn.

Totally sucks that the SPURS played less games than anyone.
I always thought the LOSS COLUMN was the most important, but this stupid restart is basing it on the WIN COLUMN
99.999% of the time the LOSS COLUMN is the most important thing as you cannot make up losses.
But, the damn virus has screwed them a bit.

It doesnt really matter, because:
1) COVID-19
2)No guarantees the Spurs ever win again
3)none of them are beating the Lakers.

But, the Spurs 23 year playoff streak will likely be ended merely because they played less games than Mem/Port/Phoenix.

Watching the original Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory......been forever since I've seen this movie.....a classic.

Porzingis sucks

 

[bksballer89]

Porzingis sucks

He's only been playing his best ball in 2 years.....

 

[mr.hockey4242]

What I am watching now, that must be an extremely low bar.

Rough game. Shooting poorly but he's been really good in the bubble. Much better than he played before covid.

Oh yeah I saw he was good the other night. But I watched another game where he bricked everything. Seems he just rushes his shot when hes got a clear height advantage causing him to be short on all these shots the last 5 min.

 

[raptorlife4]

Luka is a fucking monster

 

[raptorlife4]

is Luka the best player in the NBA?

 

[bksballer89]

Luka is a fucking monster

Imagine if they played a little defense

 

[wildturkey]

lame ass excuse.

They do care. Otherwise AD and Bron wouldn't have been in the game late/played 35 minutes today in a "meaningless" game. They obviously want to start playing better basketball before the playoffs start (as they should).

Eh. They didn't really try that much for whatever reason this game. They played Dudley, Horton-Tucker, and Cook (who actually played well) a bunch this game despite the fact that they've been parked on the bench all bubble. Davis was lazy as fuck today, spending most of his time on offense just hanging out on the 3 point line while on defense just putting up a slight resistance. So I wouldn't put much into reading anything from that game. They gave a half assed effort.

Now they SHOULD be giving more of an effort because they're struggles are real. Lebron, imo, is just coasting as he does before ramping up when the playoffs start. The rest are in a bad slump, especially shooting. Danny Green can't do shit. Waiters and Smith still haven't found any rhythm much less fit in. Markieff Morris is utterly unplayable.

They'll be in trouble if they don't smooth things out in the final couple of games. Lebron hitting playoff mode + AD could be enough to get by (we've seen Lebron do inhuman things plenty of times) with the rest of the team still playing like ass, but if the standings hold like I think they are where their potential round match ups will be Portland -> Houston ->LAC, they won't survive that playing that way. They might survive Portland in a long series, but Houston will get them and the Clippers would easily get them

I’m guessing because the Bucks just lost 3 out of their last 4 games, they must be absolute dog-shit too!

Unless you consider the Mavs and Nets really good teams...?

I made a post yesterday about the Bucks not looking that impressive even in their 2 wins.

The Mavs are a really good team. Just don't play defense. They can score with anyone and Luka is damn near a top 5 player while Porzingis is looking like he did before his injury.
