The only way we can beat the Lakers is if we shoot the 3 at a high clip, IMO. I would have really liked to see Bonner start against them. It would have unclogged the lane while Pau and Bynum were on the floor and would have kept one of them off of the defensive glass.

Ok now i agree. The spurs are imploding
They did absolutely zero tonight to prove they will win a series against the lakers.
Andrew Bynum. Absolutely an imploding beast

I wish Bynum pulled down 40 boards. Pop can't ignore that.
Spurs don't want any part of LA in the playoffs. That's quite evident. The Spurs play scared against this team. They give them way too much credit. It's pretty pathetic.
Let's hope the Lakers drop to 4 or Pop wakes up about the Tiago/Tim combo.

Artest with a laker career high 26pts doesnt help
13pt game. Spurs now shooting lights out from 3.
Stop whining
Clips just beat OKC.
They should be flat out embarrassed.
Probably worst game since home loss to Sacramento.
It's like deja vu of last year when they had such a great year, then had a losing stretch to end the season. I think these guys can regroup though.

That was naaaaaasty.
Glad I didn't watch.
bynums 30 boards were impressive as ****, but this game means dick. literally.
Literally dick eh?
If it didnt matter, why did Pop intentionally rest his guys only to play them tonight against a team missing its best player?

This game and the Chicago game have shown that if you block Parker 1 or 2 times on layups it takes him completely out of the game.
Simple stop being an idiot. Pop didn't rest his guys because "LA was coming to town". He rested them because it was a b2b that required a 3 hr flight.
We suck. No way we make it past the first round.
But seriously, I want no part of the Lakers in the playoffs obviously. We knew we match up horribly.

Lakers played great- but that was the very definition of the Spurs going WWE
the game tomorrow is the more important game
and yes I would love to play the Lakers in the playoffs-

Some people didn't know shark. They do now.
A playoff matchup against LA would totally wear down the Spurs.

simple, you're taking your stupidity to a new level if you think pop rested his starters just to play the lakers.
i gave bynum credit for his 30 rebounds, but you're kidding yourself if you think the the lakers play the same game with kobe in the lineup, and you're on even more crack than usual if you think the spurs are going to shoot 41% every game.
the lakers are big and they are a good team and i hope the spurs don't run into them in the playoffs, but it's a completely different game when kobe is jacking up all the shots, thus why this game, which kobe didn't play in, meant dick. the lakers run their offense through kobe, just like the spurs run it through parker. take those two dudes out and you're playing a different team.

I trust Pop and do not think that he was too happy with tonight's effort.

There's the simpleton we all know and wish would chug clorox. Congrats on the W. Bynum was a monster. Nevertheless, if the basketball board were to receive an enema, they'd stick it in you.
It is great to see Pop school the league with depth, game, and minute management every year like this.
But, come playoffs, when everyone plays defense, players like Neal, Green, Leonard, Mills, Bonner, Splitter, Diaw, and Blair are nothing. It will be on Tony, Tim, and Manu, and they just aren't the best anymore.

Clam, that's been my biggest worry during this season. If our depth and role players shrink away during the playoffs none of this will matter.
That being said, I don't wanna overreact from one game, so will we see how the season plays out....and yes I would still prefer to avoid Memphis and LAL if at all possible in the playoffs because they are our worst match ups. Both squads, esp the Lakers, definitely get up playing the spurs. At least the Lakers will have to deal with Mike Browns ineptness come playoff time.

Clay gets it. Except green. I think he is a contributor
I think Kawhi can contribute as well. But his minutes have been slimmed down this last month.
Spurs aren't getting out of the West.
clay is dead on, Manu, Duncan, Parker need to carry the load in the playoffs.
Those 3 (def not the Big 3 anymore) vs The Lakers last night:
combined-
27pts, 8 rebounds, 13 assists, 35% FG, 6 turnovers and a minus 41 while playing a game-high 77 minutes.
If the play like that, Spurs aren't getting out of the first round

And lol @ the person who said, "The only way we beat the Lakers is if we make a lot of threes."
It's like he watched the Mavs sweep the lakers last year or something.

i enjoy watching the footage of Bynum playing the Spurs last night
I think Pop will eventually move Jax to the starting lineup to replace Kawhi.
Tonight we should come out much more motivated after our worst game of the season. Hopefully we blow out the Grizz.
