Pop may have given up too early, but honestly, what did they have going for them? Parker? He was sucking. Jackson? He ain't gonna win the game for you. Duncan? Nope. Manu? Nope.

I would never hope Pop would tank, but come on...he started messing with the lineup before the spurs lost the lead in the second quarter. Best case scenario now is thunder starting to show boat a bit and embarrass the spurs, like their last loss to the lakers, and spurs get pissed off.
the spurs will come out and win game four, i have a good feeling about it
Pahdz- Harden became pretty unlikeable in this game. It's not because he is happy when he does well. It's because he is a *****. jerk.

Spurs just need tpo start raining 3s. Screw the paint, Manu.
Pop has in DeJuan, Anderson and Patty. Brooks has in Russell and Durant.
The Spurs are losing and now the refs suck? Amazing!

you can't really think that's what harden is doing, right? the dude was baiting tiago fuggin splitter into a fight, and you think it's because he is "young and having fun"? that's a very simplebay-esque comment and you're better than that.
I guarantee you Fisher was saying nothing of substance. No one was paying attention to him. But what a hell of a leader.
and cheap shotted whoever that was from behind. and a couple of other things I'm forgetting.
Surprisingly, the Thunder are winning this game because of 'the other guys'.
Is it really necessary to fall down after every long shot?
what a depantsing tonight. good lord
I mean look who the spurs have in. This game would have finished about 10-15 had Pop left in the starters.
I guess I'm confused because before this series all the Spurs fans said that the only way the Thunder have a chance is for the Big 3 to have 4 spectacular games. They are about to win one where Westbrook has only 10 points and Harden doesn't have many more...that doesn't worry y'all?
Hey, there's simplebay. He's so smart guys. After picking the spurs to lose 20 times in a row and getting it wrong, he's finally vindicated. My dog knows more about basketball than simplebay, and he thinks licking his own ass is pretty cool.

It's not the first time I've heard that. It's come from Mavs fans, Laker fans, and now Spurs fans, and always about different guys. Harden's acted like a ****** tonight yes, but I've heard the "acting like it's their Super Bowl" line before.
This has gone beyond ugly.
The Thunder are just making everything tonight. It happens.
Will be very interesting to see how the Spurs respond Saturday night.
Blair dominates OKC, he should play for SA
Reggie Miller is a moron. This just in...
agreed discorob...he's horrible

They really weren't. I'm not looking at the numbers, but it seems like they shot better in game 2. It's the spurs who have sucked it up.

It's been more about the Thunder D than their offense, you're right.

No. Spurs played a really poor game. They didn't adjust to Parker being guarded by a longer defender well. Simultaneously, they made some really bad decisions on offense. Combine that with a bad game from our role players (Green 1 of 3 on open shots, Kawhi 1-3 on open shots, Bonner played like trash, Splitter played like trash, and Neal ran the point badly) and it's tough to get going on offense. Furthermore, you take away some of those turnovers, and the Thunder don't get easy points.
Fact is, Spurs played badly, Thunder played like a team with their back against the wall, and we conceded in the second half. Losing happens (although rarely for the Spurs.)
We'll be just fine.
Spurs need to figure out how to attack the Thunder defense next game or they are in trouble. Pop's rotations tonight were God awful.
hahaha. Nice Pahdz.
This adds pressure to Game 4.
what's funny about that pic with Harden, is that creepy dude looks just like this homeless guy in downtown OKC everyone knows as "Tim"
