GT: Nets vs. Spurs 

Post#1 » by Nolan » Sat Nov 22, 2014 3:25 pm

When: 8:30 PM ET, November 22, 2014
Where: AT&T Center, San Antonio, TX

Second night of a back to back for both teams so this one might be interesting.

The Nets have been struggling a bit lately so we need to pounce on them early.

Go Spurs!!

Also no word on Cojo yet. Apparently he looked fine leaving Minny but I guess we'll see what happens.

If this wasn't the second night of a back to back I would consider this game more of a slam dunk than Minnesota.

So Cory's out. I guess that means lots of Marco/Manu running the point.

KG's also resting for the Nets tonight. I demand justice, the Nets are throwing the game and so on and so forth.

Kawhi had a horrible shooting quarter. He was missing wide open shots. If the Spurs could just hit their open looks Tony, Manu, and Duncan could sit pretty early.

That Duncan pass was nasty!!

I'm afraid KG's availability wouldn't change the outcome of this game.

Good half, it's hard to argue with the score. Duncan on quadruple double watch is ridiculous! He's got to be a top 5 player all time! Sorry fellas, Timmy just gives me a Sponer sometimes.

Parker looked great till the end of the half. He was trying to be too much of a hero. The crazy part is we are missing some wide open shots. This should be a way bigger deficit.

Happy to see Baynes, a bench warmer paid peanuts playing solid minutes.

His last 4 games:
12pts, 9rb, 1blk
6pts, 3rb, 1blk
12pts, 9rb, 1blk
10pts, 8rb

Well that was a convincing win. The Nets made a few runs but in the end they just couldn't stop Tony.

Duncan was massive in the first half and Danny couldn't miss in the 2nd half. Kawhi had a pretty good stat line but I wasn't really liking what he was doing on the offensive end, he was holding the ball too long and throwing off our rhythm.

Very worried about Splitter. I keep hearing about nerve damage and that's gonna be a huge bummer if true :banghead:


Well it sounds like the doctors have ruled out the back/nerve damage causing the injury so now its just a matter of letting it heal properly.

Sounds like the Spurs could invest in a trade scenario for insurance purposes with Splitter missing time with nagging injuries.

Return to San Antonio Spurs
