OK my bad, this wasn't competitive at all. I thought Spo's guys had more in the tank than this.

Luka bricks the game tying 3. mvp

Wemby wouldve made it tbh

 

[Kick-Stand]

LOLkers now down 8 in the loss column for the #2 seed

Luka bricks a potential game winner against DET... DET makes two FTs, up 3 with 9 seconds to go

Pistons win.

Nick Wright will cry about this tomorrow.

Dream 2nd round scenario. Rooting for them to stay in 3rd solely for that

Hopefully they maintain the 3 seed tbh.

 

[Kick-Stand]

If the Bulls hold onto their 17 point lead in the third the magic number to clinch at least the #2 seed becomes 2 games

Great road win. Finally had good game in maimi

 

[bozhemoi]

Wasn't Ware supposed to be a potential all-star in development? Looks like a complete scrub.

He has a lot of potential but even in college his head wasn't all there. Lazy, get distracted, didn't bring it all the time. Left one college and then was pretty good at the second, but the problems were always there.

 

[Mugen]

Not a great night for Bam's DPOY campaign tbh.

 

[Dbreiden83080]

This is the game when Pat Riley decided to blow up and go all in for Giannis in the summer.

Honestly, Giannis is breaking down so bad physically I’m not sure what the trade market is for him anymore? Team should be very concerned about what he has left?

 

[spursistan]

At this point, seems like its Giannis or bust for the Heat. Should have swallowed their pride and tanked in either 2025 or 2026. Not sure what 'Heat Culture' is about right now if it is not perpetual mediocrity and farcical stat-padding scenes

I thought he been trying for like three years now to blow it up and can't get anyone to bite

 

[spursistan]

The next three games are Grizzlies, Bucks and Bulls, got to wait until April 1st for the next serious game, smh.

In retrospect that Suns game was much needed test to keep these guys focused and attuned to playoffs-like circumstances

 

[John B]

That was just sheer display of dominance that Spurs fans were used to. Happy to be back

 

[Dbreiden83080]

OKC by 20 over the Sixers tonight. They just don’t fucking lose anymore.

It's basically VJ vs everyone right now so that wasn't unexpected tbh.

Still Trusting the Process

 

[Millennial_Messiah]

I was actually rooting for the Lakers to win, so the Spurs would clinch Finals HCA sooner than later. Not worried about the #2/#3 at all, the Spurs would have to pull a 2011 to fall that far down at this point anyway.

Still, the Spurs win comfortably tonight, but being in that arena gives bad vibes. Never forget 6. It still hurts.

 

[Coyote2!]

Not a great night for Bam's DPOY campaign tbh.

B-b-but he can guard 1-5! The stats don't tell the full story!

Hope we get to the WCF tbh. I think we have at least 40% chance vs OKC.

 

[Millennial_Messiah]

Yeah if OKC doesn't lose in Boston to the Celtics on Wednesday then the #1 seed is probably out of reach for us.

They have three tough home games in a row, against NY, DET, LAL, and they could still lose at LAC or DEN too, but our schedule isn't exactly cake either, though it's easier than OKC's.

 

[1kangaroo]

Bulls choked away a big lead and looks like they are going to lose
