Game Thread Spurs (49-18) @ Clippers (34-33) (Mon 3/16/2026) [9:00PM CDT]

[The Ballsbreakers]

Castle is such a hard-headed mofo... for better or for worse.

 

[timtonymanu]

Barnes and Plumlee should never play together ever again

 

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Miserable end to that quarter oof

 

[LeBowen]

I don't even think it's a meltdown, it's just about Mitch playing the worst possible lineup for some reason.

 

[SanAnSpursFan21]

How many no calls can you have in that last possession?

 

[tearsofmorningdew]

Oh look heavy Barnes minutes and the lead evaporates. Guy is a serious liability that needs to stop seeing any real minutes

 

[Spurminator]

We're going to win this game by 20 plus. Might as well see what Plumlee can do in somewhat meaningful minutes.

Answer? Not much.

 

[Robz4000]

Plumlee has no business being on the court when the opposing team goes small, but Mitch has done it twice now in three games.

 

[Blizzardwizard]

these kind of bench meltdowns would be easily avoided if they actually had real NBA players on the back end of the roster instead of charity contracts tbh

 

[heyheymymy]

Plumlee was in when LAC went small w I Jackson as the lone big. Lot of miscommunication, some bad feeds from Champ and Fox, but Plumlee kept getting mismatched on Christie and Mathurin getting roasted.

 

[Trifecta]

Mitch better get a clue right now! Have to win the 4th - 7 TOs unacceptable in that qtr alone!!!

 

[1kangaroo]

Barnes has dropped off hard since mid season it's crazy

 

[Robz4000]

We're going to win this game by 20 plus. Might as well see what Plumlee can do in somewhat meaningful minutes.

Answer? Not much.

Spurs might still win this game but it won't be by 20 plus tbh.

 

[LeBowen]

Answer? Not much.

I don't think we needed to see it in action to find out Barnes and Plumlee can't play together.

 

[timtonymanu]

We really have the retirement home lineup of Plumlee, Olynyk, and Biyombo. All so useless. Only one of them should be brought back if anything.

 

[ChrisC21209]

Plumlee is only good for when Wemby and or/Kornet are out or in foul trouble. Also only use him against another big for the love of god smh

 

[Trifecta]

McLaughlin in???

 

[ChrisC21209]

We really have the retirement home lineup of Plumlee, Olynyk, and Biyombo. All so useless. Only one of them should be brought back if anything.

We really lack 1 more serviceable big

 

[Trifecta]

Ok Mac

 

[Trifecta]

Refs have it out for Carter

 

[timtonymanu]

JMac with decent minutes, tbh.

 

[wEmBoY]

Lmao castle stealing the spotlighy from victor through hero balling.smh

 

[scott]

Really good minutes from JMac tonight

 

[Robz4000]

Clippers going at Wemby now even if he stuffs their shit.

 

[SanAnSpursFan21]

I actually really like JMac
