    Agreed. If we get the Suns and Lakers in rounds 1 and 2, provided we beat them both, those will be two of my most satisfying fandom moments in a while.

    I mean, yes, we all can. Of, course, exclude politicians and we get rid of a lot of those visible male examples. But the "karen" complex is a real thing.

    I believe that is correct. I like him though. Him and Mamu. Either would be a great bench addition.

    :ROFLMAO: Old white women become irrelevant, aren't getting laid, and just become bitter old hags, angry at the world. Certainly more racist, old opinionated women than men it seems like. Old men tend to soften their views, keep their dumb opinions to themselves, or just die. Old women tend...

    Caleb Williams is an ass for making that filing. Does he not know sports history at all?

    Analysis The final 12 games

    I feel like with 2nd in the West essentially being assured, I could see Mitch resting guys these last dozen games. I don't think it will change the desire this team to win games, but I could see us going 9-3 or 8-4. I voted 8-4, but my heart is saying 9-3 down the stretch. I can see these...

    Yeah, I saw the Clippers going at Barnes knowing he was the weak link on defense. I like the veteran presence he'll provide in this playoffs, but Carter needs to be getting most of Barnes' minutes at this point. Kid is maturing at a fast rate.

    Willis was one of those guys who was so athletic, and could hold his space so well that he didn't need long arms to rebound. Position and strength. Old school basketball.

    Draft Atlanta Hawks Pick-Swap Watch Thread

    This draft has a lot of players who can contribute without a huge drop-off in skill all the way through the 20th pick. The Spurs have the opportunity to luck into someone in that mid first round range who could contribute without having that high lottery salary commitment. This is probably a...

    Depending on how our core is looking at the time of the draft this might be the smart play.

    This was a sleeper of a game to watch, even with the Spurs winning. The Kings didn't put up much of a fight. It was garbage time from halfway through the second quarter. It was the Washington Generals vs the Globetrotters without Curly Neal and Meadowlark Lemon there to entertain us. A water...

    Game Thread Spurs (49-18) @ Clippers (34-33) (Mon 3/16/2026) [9:00PM CDT]

    Wemby, Castle, Fox, Devin, Champagnie, Keldon, Kornet, Harper, Bryant, Barnes. That's it. After that, the talent on this team drops off a cliff. All roster spots from 11, on could be turned over to G-Leaguers, and the Spurs would be no worse off for it. Jones-Garcia would have made this cut...

    Kornet looked pretty good against Charlotte. Maybe he just gets the occasional case of Vassellitis and forgets how to play for a few consecutive games.

    Tonight will be a good test to see how our young team is maturing. Hopefully they won't mess around with the Clips. We should win by 30 (or least be up by 30 when Johnson puts McLaughlin and Biyombo in the game for their customary plus/minus of -15 in the 4th quarter).

    Yeah, sending Minnesota East is like giving them a handful of top-5 lottery picks for nothing. I'd love to see them send the Spurs east, but doubt it happens.
