Game Thread Spurs (38-16) vs Suns (32-23) (Thu 02/19/26) [7:30 PM CST]

PHX has lost 3 of their last 4, with those losses coming to GS, Philly, & OKC. Grayson Allen is expected back after missing the last 3 weeks with an ankle injury.
 
Huge game according to Exstatic's criteria!
Good team
Revenge game
Bounce back game

1 and [2 and/or 3] are the criteria. Doesn’t have to be a huge game, although I’ve picked a few of those.

I have to thank you, LeBowen. I’m really starting to relish the role that you cast me in, thread starter supervillain. Ex Luthor. 😛
 
Stomp these bozos, tbh. Still mad at their shit talking last season. Hope the Spurs come out with an attitude after their All-Star Weekend performances.
 
Wemby about to go off, his dad is sittin! Let's keep the ball rollin'

How do the locals feel about these Austin games anyway?
Most San Antonians hate it tbh, although I think it's mostly because they felt threatened by the idea of the Spurs relocating to Austin. The new Arena being approved in November has definitely helped calm some of those concerns though. I personally don't mind it at all for that reason.

As a San Antonian who has been in Austin for like 20 years, I love it. I only go to one or two games a year, and I'm certainly not complaining about skipping the drive down to San Antonio from north Austin. To give you an idea, it's like a 20-minute drive for me compared to an hour-and-a-half.

Moody Center is smaller than Frost Bank Center, but it is nice and new and a great basketball venue. The games are always packed and the crowd tends to be engaged because we only get two games a year here to see the Spurs, and they usually throw some Austin-centric stuff into the in-game entertainment.

I went last year when KD played so that was cool to see him back in front of the UT crowd.

I'm going to start a game thread before the season is over. But now is not the time.

I was at the first Phoenix game and it has to rank as one of our least enthusiastic efforts of the season. If the Spurs show up with purpose we should dominate.

Spurs 112-101
