Game Thread Spurs (46-17) vs Rockets (39-23) (Sun 03/08/26) [7:00PM CDT]

[OK Computer]

Spurs rebounding still an issue + 50/50 ball tip outs by the Spurs are going right to the Rockets.

Lost the rebounding battle… yet won by 25. How many times do I hafta tell you guys it’s all by design

 

[brazil]

I think it’s time tbh… victor is the 25-26 mvp and it is not particularly close

 

[scott]

Spurs legend TMac should just go full Spurs homer

 

[timtonymanu]

Clutchfans: Wemby learned early in his career that you gotta learn how to flop to be a superstar.

Meanwhile Sengun over here shamelessly throwing elbows

 

[spursistan]

Spurs have surely lapped the Rockets.. Adams & FVV aren't changing that for Houston. It all boils down to them not getting a top tier blue chipper from years of tanking. It's not all about luck; they have whiffed on at least a couple of picks.

 

[Biggems]

I saw somewhere that Wemby could potentially walk away with MVP, DPOY, and MIP.

 

[Kick-Stand]

Damn this team is insane ever since putting Champ in the starting lineup

I would cook mfers college 2k seshes with tmac as PG in 2k13

Imagine drafting Reed Sheppard over Stephon castle

It is another 40 point game against a contender on Nat TV (Denver, Boston) and it's officially on

 

[Spurminator]

I'm so glad the NBA is back on NBC.

 

[Spurs Homer]

Shit-goon is a total kunt

Thats it and thats all.

Love seeing Melo, TMac, and Vince on as commentators all the time now. My fave players of that era

Kinda sad not seeing Kobe though

 

[spursistan]

Boston will be tougher and great test vs the potential finalists from the East

 

[Rafa]

Holy shit boys we are 15-1 in the last 16. Can’t wait to catch the compressed game tomorrow

MVP is an offense award, many people won't see what Wemby does on the defensive side plus Shay and Joker are still putting crazy numbers with very high efficiency

He's not getting MIP that's Maxeys award

 

[PokerFace21]

Hoping Plumlee gets some minutes whether garbage time or regular playing time. Biyombo doesn’t need to be in there.

Sengun is like that star high school athlete who is great until you realize he has fat toes.

Yeah remember kids that time when the Spurs beat the Rockets and T-Mac had 13 points in the last 33.3 seconds?

Sometimes fit matters on that stuff knowing your role and doing your job he hustles hard he not a great defender (adequate one) but he always gives effort on defense and he has been a solid rebounder. He does not go hunting for shots he takes the open shot. You got to love good role players you need guys like him to get the ring

Highlights throughout.

 

[SanAnSpursFan21]

I think what I love most about this team is how flawed I thought this roster would be, yet they’re playing nearly unstoppable right now…and it looks fairly sustainable

 

[LeBowen]

I legit didn't think of Barnes even once during the game, tbh.

The three headed guard rotation is just putting so much pressure on defenses having three guys able to get into the paint and if one has an off night the other two pick up the slack we almost always have two of them on the floor at a time
