Bad day if we lost to LAL today.

Rest of league:
OKC beat Jazz in OT
Nuggets beat Boston
Hawks beat Pelicans
Knicks beat LAC

 

[ginobilized]

We should be attacking Luka, he's just hiding in the corner on D half the time

 

[SpursBrazil]

KJ playing well. The rest of the team is hard to watch. Fox is even worse than yesterday

 

[Mugen]

Such an obvious close loss coming up, this team has been absolutely horrible since Christmas.

 

[Seventyniner]

Such an obvious close loss coming up, this team has been absolutely horrible since Christmas.

The deal with the devil expired and he is claiming his due.

 

[Rafa]

My only happiness atm is knowing that ESPN paid a lot of money to show this shit ass game with these two shit ass teams lmao

 

[spursparker9]

Dylan Harper hasn't been good for weeks now. Hopefully its just a rookie wall and he'll break out soon

Making the all rookie 1st team seems more and more unlikely

 

[Robz4000]

They have it Top 16 protected only, so I wouldn’t worry too much about that one at least

Forgot about the protections tbh. Still, that pick is gaining value for the Kings imo.

 

[CrustyCoastBendFan]

Absolute trash.

Fox/Castle/Harper playing for fouls instead of looking to score, absolutely embarrassing ball tbh.

This is what they see all the so called STARS doing, isnt it. Too bad Spurs are on the Leagues NO STAR TREATMENT list for decade.
I mean they robed Duncan in broad daylight of a Quad Double in a close out game in the Finals

 

[TowelWaver]

I’m utterly baffled that Harper is being so passive and not at least trying to go to the basket, especially with seemingly half the Lakers in foul trouble.

Such an obvious close loss coming up, this team has been absolutely horrible since Christmas.

LA looks even shittier, so i think they can pull this one out.

Dylan Harper hasn't been good for weeks now. Hopefully its just a rookie wall and he'll break out soon

Didn’t he have a month off after the first two weeks?

Dude might not have a motor tbh. Starting to get Ben Simmons vibes from him.

His lack of a shot has been picked up on.

In more rotation weirdness… Barnes played 20 minutes in the first half

He hasnt been very good at finishing around the rim for awhile now. I think that has him second guessing so he's trying to pass out a lot.

 

[Snake Eyes]

Love Fox. No flow to his game and can’t hit anything. What happened to Harper? He was getting to the basket easily earlier in the year and his jumper has completely disappeared. Our guards are killing us. Only people who can shoot from deep are Vic, Jules and KJ. KJ is so important off the bench. I would be a little leery to start KJ In place of Barnes as he brings so much off the bench. But damn Barnes has regressed.

[WembyFan]

So does anyone know what channel the games will be on if Fanduel shuts down?

 

[JBAllDay]

Our “league best” guard rotation is a combined 2/13 for 9 points at the half

 

[Sugus]

Still can't believe Trae Young got traded to the Wizards lol

 

[spursistan]

How come Fox/Harper/Castle are this bad at the same time? at some point this on the coach to make it work..

 

[ShoppingCartFestival]

Lol damn, they picked the snowiest-snow bunny of them all to do the half-time shows with T.J.

 

[benefactor]

I can’t think of anything in my life I’ve regretted more than ever wanting to trade Keldon

You are all of us bro

 

[Paramore]

hope we can win this game
