You guys hate DeRozan that much?

At least he put in efforts and play hard during the Dark Age with LMA

I personally got no beef with Demar the person. He’s a good dude. I just hated that era of the Spurs

He's a terrific citizen, he's a good young man, but he's a whiny fucking bitch who plays loser-ass basketball. You could count on him more for a ill-timed technical foul than you could for a clutch shot.

I'm really getting sick of coming home from work, seeing the Spurs up 15 fucking points and watching them lose the goddamn lead as soon as I tune in to the game.

And dumbass me keeps turning the games off because I'm superstitious. I'd like to enjoy my team. I'm watching the game tonight even if they get beat and it's my fault.

You need to start a game thread and put the superstitions to the test

It's literally your fault bro.

IIRC, DeRozen was quite a clutch player when joining the Spurs. Just that his reputation was that he tends to disappear in the playoffs.

It's so funny because I was really superstitious about the Spurs when I was young and then later on I turned into Jerry West and I couldn't even watch the frickin playoff games live because I would get so anxious. Now I stopped caring when they were crappy and I suddenly have bad luck.

My wife and I went to the game where Dennis Rodman had 20 rebounds in the first half against the Mavericks and the Spurs were down like 12 and she went to the ladies room and came back and the Spurs were up 10 so she always thought she was a jinx.

Shot selection tonight has been bad

He's Kobe Bryant Clutch: He takes six shots in the last two minutes and hits two of them.

 

[wEmBoY]

So wemby out for the night?

 

[O_V]

There's no way that's a charge.

 

[OK Computer]

My boy ingram not gonna get minutes at this rate

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Beautiful three by Victor right in rhythm.

 

[timtonymanu]

Can you jackasses stop missing free throws?

And Wemby 3 on cue!!!

 

[O_V]

It's literally your fault bro.

And knowing that, I posted early in this game thread that it was a trap, figuring that would reverse jinx us.

 

[Fabbs]

Why did Bryant get benched?

 

[timtonymanu]

great run to end the 3rd.

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Excellent close to the third now put some pressure on and beat these boys down early in the fourth.

 

[spursparker9]

Why did Bryant get benched?

He did play for around 5, 6 mins in the 2Q

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Wemby 20/13/5/4 blocks.

 

[spursparker9]

Wemby 20/13/5/4 blocks.

Wemby got to be the 2nd best rebounder after Jokic

 

[Weeks]

the good: we've got 105 points through the 3rd quarter

the bad: they've got 94

 

[Fabbs]

He did play for around 5, 6 mins in the 2Q

And got benched right after making his 1st attempted trey.

 

[OK Computer]

And got benched right after making his 1st attempted trey.

He was jumping all over the place with no rhyme or reason.

 

[CGD]

Why did Bryant get benched?

I think coach is shortening the rotation now ahead of playoffs. Makes sense

 

[scott]

Vic swipes for blocks sometimes when he should just stay completely vertical…learning how to keep that in control will add a few more blocks and take away a few more fouls over the course of a season

These fuckin’ refs though…
