So the Spurs are finished.

Spurs down 32-16 to Portland. Timmy 5-5 for 10 pts. Everybody else 3-15 for 6 pts. Didn't think it would end like this.

You can't fake the eye of the tiger.

Tim Duncan is amazing. Nailed a 20 footer to go 7-7. Fought Lopez for a rebound, ran the break, and kicked to Green for the open fastbreak 3.
 
Now they're down 2. #smallsamplesizephdeac

They picked it up pretty much after I posted. Maybe the collective sighs of Spurs fans blew some of those ugly jumpers in.
Timmy rimmed out a buzzer 3 to miss his first shot of the game.
 
So what could the #KarlKings get for Boogie? Say we sell high, soon, before the inevitable meltdown? Asking for a friend. (Friend is interested in our team eventually making the playoffs again)

ETA: let the record show I don't begrudge the man for being frightened of Z-Bo. That's the sanest thing he's done in years

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Ish kind of sucks. I tried to deny what my eyes were seeing but he has been worse than our 10 day PGs.

I mean there's a reason he has bounced around the league

But I also think PGs have a harder time adjusting to new teams than any other player

Tony Parker has become a bottom 5 starting PG. Quickly

Simmons from his Trade Value column:

Quick note on Parker: I ranked him 20th in the Trade Value TV special as a legacy move, didn’t feel good about it, studied him a few more times and eventually dropped him here. Barring another injury (and he has been banged up for the first three months), the 32-year-old Parker will join Fisher, Horry, Kareem, Duncan, Kobe, Shaq and Pippen in the 1,000-200 Club sometime in late April. What’s that club? Everyone who played 1,000 regular-season games and 200 playoff games. Yikes. There’s no real historical point guard precedent for Parker — he’s only 32 right now, but he’s been an NBA player for fourteen years. Can he make it to 20 years like Kareem did? Will he disappear overnight in his early thirties like Isiah Thomas did? This trend definitely scares me:2013: 20.3 ppg, 7.6 apg, 5.0 FTA, 52.2 percent FG, 23.0 PER, 32.9 MPG
2014: 16.7 ppg, 5.7 apg, 3.6 FTA, 49.9 percent FG, 18.9 PER, 29.4 MPG
2015: 14.1 ppg, 5.0 apg, 2.5 FTA, 46.8 percent FG, 14.7 PER, 28.9 MPG

Just a few days ago, I was making the argument that he still had several good years left. I'm not sure anymore.

Timmy had 20 and 8 on 9-12 shooting. He's the best player on this team right now by far and that's not enough. This team is built for him to be the 3rd best player. Right now, it must be asked if Parker just isn't 100% or in decline. It must be asked if Kawhi just isn't 100%, just a elite player in the playoffs, or just had two good playoff runs.

Kawhi in the finals when going for mvp was at a different level. Theres just no way to predict spurs vs memphis, i mean jeff [Redacted] is prominently involved. Same with golden state vs thunder.

I mean the clips are an afterthought with the second best point differential in the league
