This is the Spurs championship tonight: Beat a SEVERELY undermanned team.


I truly believe this 18 game losing streak is 75% Jeremy Sochan’s fault and Popp’s unwavering confidence in this bum LOL

Cedi and Zach waaay better not even close

15-11 we gon be alright.
Nice well deserved weekend off back to Cali
Knicks Monday at the crypto arena


People are saying Pop is tanking. It's not a great draft class but there's a couple of PGs the Spurs desperately need and a 7'1 guy from France named Sarr that might enable a twin tower lineup.

Outside of Wemby and Vassell the Spurs are trash. Keldon is okay but no defense. Tre is a decent PG but no defense. Collins at 5 is a turnstile. Sochan's only upside is he's young. Everybody might be traded except Vassell and Wemby and I think they know it, Sochan's been miserable most of the season.

For the Spurs to win Wemby and Vassel need to play well or they lose because their defense is so bad they need to score 130+



IF that 7'1 Center from France doesnt go to DET and ends up with the Spurs..IE Robinson and Duncan.. Silver needs to step down and the NBA needs to be investigated.


He looks decent as well. Really decent. Against the G League Ignite -

I choose to no longer partake in this product for entertainment purposes as it is below my standards of acceptable quality. Jeannie, Rob, Ham, knock yourselves out, continue as you are. I’m sure your life will continue to be fine without my support, as will mine.

Good day.

Be great if we go 2-2 on this.

Knicks and Bulls being the ones we win.

We haven't played well against good teams for the most part.

I dont see us winning OKC and Boston.

Not with our shooting.


Bulls are red hott.

Who cares they broke their 18-game losing streak.

LeBron got us a participation banner up next to the bubble banner.

Considering how bad this Spurs team is, this is a cause for concern even with the injuries.

Obviously, they beat the Spurs when healthy.

But, this is the worst teams in the western conference. The fact that you're still this bad with one of your stars playing says something.


Dude we have the worst backup centers in the league by 10 miles.

You wont be favorites in any game with centers like that.

That and we shot 31% from three whilst Spurs shot 40.

This team has so many holes in it. It'll take a big trade to adress it.

Yup. None of these teams will be easy. And we cant shoot for the most part. If this team would just be average from three i'd say we'd win at leat 3/4

But we cant shoot for (bleep).

Just lost to the 2nd worst team in the league in a blowout without DLO or AD.

Shows who are the most important players on the team are outside of LeBron, but we all knew this.

Should have won the MAvs and this game.

Losing games like these will hurt later.

But as presently constructed we are not contenders anyway.

Good luck trotting out Hayes and Wood against legit teams.

Saying this after a loss when they have 3 of their starters out.

Okie dokie, bye then. If that's really your position, don't switch up and jump back on when they start winning with a healthy roster.



Otherwise, go take a nap, and realize we likely weren't ever winning this(or any other) game with 3 starters out. Outside of LeBron having 40 and Reaves having 30 it isn't gonna happen. And we shall see you vs the Knicks.

Spurs have been losing by single digits to solid teams. Our team with 3 starters out including our best player in Davis, was going to be rough. But when DLO is out along with AD? Yeah near impossible task. That's our 2nd and 3rd option scoring as well as our point guard and his backup(Vincent) is still out with injury.

After the Knicks at home;

We gotta play the bulls and wolves on the road in a back to back.....yikes
Then heading over to another buzzsaw in OKC

Just hoping we have a full healthy roster even without Gabe.
An that elite defense we witnessed during the IST makes a comeback.

Still relatively confident we can cook these squads if these variables arise

The loss is embarrassing because Wembyama didn’t have his typical dominance game and we still lost with a team of LeBron/Reaves/Rui/Vanderbilt I hope the same people who are blaming the struggle with injuries are the same 1’s who are faced with reality when the Knicks give us a hard time on Monday

The Spurs are complete garbage. There's no excusing this. You should be able to win this game while shorthanded.

The Lakers also lost to the Mavericks almost complete healthy while they were missing Kyrie and were on the 2nd night of a back to back. People wanted to whine about missing Vando while they were missing KYRIE IRVING.

This team isn't good enough. Stop lying to yourselves. Stop becoming attached to players.

Nah no one cares except internet trolls commenting bs on social media.
Game #26


Don’t let this trash your weekend. Hopefully the Lakers will be healthier and ready to go against the Knicks on Monday.

15-11

I will lie to myself if I want, thank you very much. Lol

I am not a member of the "realistic Lakers fans" brigade. I will always think my team has a chance to win.
