Game Thread Spurs (62-19) vs Nuggets (53-28) (Sunday 4/12/26) [7:30PM CDT]

It's actually pretty consistent to freak out about not avoiding a certain matchup in the POs when even their 3rd stringers are owning your ass, tbh.

If THIS is who the Spurs actually are then they were never going to beat OKC either way so honestly I don't see why people are freaking out either way.

The Spurs either are good enough to win the title or their not (and frankly as a young team with no playoff experience thats probably a no) but if they are its ONLY because of Wemby's dominance so yeah with him not out there and them not trying the team is not going to look as good. But either way, if your opinion of the Spurs chances changes based on this game you are wrong.

Our guys are playing like trash to be sure, but also the ball is just simply bouncing every direction the Nuggets need it. It’s not over, but they’re fighting their own apathy and Nuggets dumbluck

 

[NASpurs]

Let's hope Denver doesn't play their third stringers in the playoffs. We have no chance.

yeah not sure why people are acting like it's irrational to want to avoid playing them


they are maybe the most experienced playoff team in the west, a matchup nightmare and are beating us while actively trying to lose

Nvm. Barnes is too busy trying to get 17 points.

Even a half asssed level of defense would make a huge difference in this one

Hilarious how folks keep waving it off. Denver are pretty close to being rent free in our heads . I am not losing hope but i definitely lost confidence in this match-up over the last month or so

 

[SanAnSpursFan21]

Denver has no shortage of fat players

 

[PokerFace21]

Start getting some stops.

 

[BatManu20]

Just cannot get any consistent stops. Defense has been brutal tonight.

 

[ginobilized]

Finally under 10

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Fucking refs

 

[Seventyniner]

Nothing the offense does matters if the Spurs give up 130 again

 

[100%Duncan]

Our team sure love fouling on jumpshots. Fucking idiots man

 

[SpursFan86]

Jalen Pickett iso’ing against us

 

[Raven_]

[Correct Crusader]

Hard to do when your centers are corpses. Forced to play midget ball out there.

 

[ginobilized]

Sean Sweeney is an unhappy man there on the bench

There is problem with that. The problem is posters here wont admit it that they want to avoid the nuggets. Lmao

They are rent free in you and other fans heads. Theres no evidence they are in the players heads at all.

Sniper Steph

 

[tearsofmorningdew]

Fox or Barnes can’t tell which dummy in a headband got torched on that one

 

[MannyIG]

God I hope they cut this lead close and Mitch sits rotation players for the entire fourth.

 

[100%Duncan]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
