Game Thread Playoffs Round 1, Game 3: Blazers vs Spurs (1-1) (Fri 04/26/2026) [9:30 CDT]

[z0sa]

It's clear a lot of people had very high expectations for what's essentially a super overachieving team, with almost no playoff experience, and our best player/MVP finalist out. I recommend taking this game, win or loss, with a grain of salt. my honest take

 

[The Ballsbreakers]

These refs have been on Portland's nuts all series long

 

[The_Second_Coming_of_VY65]

Solid D

 

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Zero adjustments per par

Hey Mitch changed which arm he's crossing in front of the other.

 

[100%Duncan]

Champagnie shooting coontested floaters jesus christ mitch. Are you fucking coaching?

 

[Rafa]

Tbh, it's not too late for some of the voters to change their MVP ballot.

Not the way I wanted to make a case but it’s looking like an awfully strong one. A play-in seed is gonna take our 62 win season because of a headache

 

[Robz4000]

Yeah, this is over tbh.

 

[onechance87]

holiday outplaying fox and castle...im disgusted

 

[spursistan]

That game 2 choke was so costly.

 

[WembyFan]

Spurs shouldn't have gone cheap on the coaching.

 

[tearsofmorningdew]

Yeah im turning this off. So glad that most of holidays points are on Fox, perfect contrast between a winning archetype player and a f’in loser

 

[poopbox]

Fox truthers looking pretty good right now

Only thing left is for us to be down 16 with 3 min left and he scores 9 points on 4 of 5 shooting

 

[LeBowen]

Hey Mitch changed which arm he's crossing in front of the other.

We're going to have to endure him for at least two more seasons.

 

[kxs783]

Hopefully the Spurs don't draft more guards next year because they're the "best available." Hopefully they try to really build a team and draft for fit. This is how I knew a lot of posters didn't really know what they were talking about because they saw were 3 athletic guards and not the bigger picture and needs of this team.No shooting and no quality big at the 4 spot.

 

[The Ballsbreakers]

AbuDeeya has the best whistle in the NBA. Dude's gamed the whole bushleague bunch of refs

 

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Has Johnson even played?

Whoever on this forum said he's an energy merchant was right. He's worthless.

 

[Ice009]

I wish Jrue Holiday demanded a trade before the season. an old Jrue Holiday is outplaying everyone on the Spurs.

 

[SpursFan86]

What the fuck are we doing? Champagnie contested drives? Castle jacking up mid range fadeaways early in the shot clock?

I’m just at a loss for words. Is Wemby just the only reason this team looked halfway decent?

 

[Dyoung13]

We look like the fucking 7 seed Jesus Christ none of these guys can finish for shit

 

[Rafa]

If it’s double digits at the start of the 4th I have no faith in this group figjting back at all

 

[Snake Eyes]

We’re on the verge here of mailing it in. Let’s see some fucking energy.

 

[Kick-Stand]

This is getting really old seeing Jrue Holiday looking like Ant against this defense.

 

[spursistan]

Mitch getting his pants pulled down by Tiago in this series wasn't on my bingo card.

 

[John B]

Nobody takes charge anymore. Deni going down is automatic charge to Manu or Mills

 

[Neuromancer]

Yeah this is over
