Aaaand the Spurs only score 20 in the first quarter. At the beginning of the season, the Spurs had a false hope that they could be a decent team, and now they know that they are truly the San Antonio Tankers this season.



Once they had to cut a 19 yr old lottery pick for pulling his dick out they said frick trying to keep up appearances of not tanking.

Annoying those shite heads have put a run together. Their fans are insufferable enough as it is…

Their fans are acting like they’re back and are now the best team in the NBA, but they don’t realize they played the only 2 teams that are worse than they, with one of them missing their best player.

But now, 16 out of their next 22 games are on the road. December will be very hard for them.

I don't understand the Spurs. Why is Pop still coaching? He can move up front and let someone else take all these Ls. They have a fantastic young core and the foundation to build on, but there is a desire for them not to succeed.

I don't believe that you win with teaching young players how to lose. It's a mentality and they are ruining some great young players. Keldon Johnson and Vassell are legit NBA starters, borderline all-star players. They are learning horrible habits and driven to only play on one end. They both have more talent and they will not be able to turn it on in later seasons.

BTW, Davis is starting to show flashes again. He beasted the Spurs, who had no answer for him..

Davis has played very well all year. He's been the Lakers best player (not LeBron). Finally moving to center, as we all knew that he should've done years ago, is allowing him to play his best basketball.

He would absolutely be the frontrunner for DPOY if the Lakers didn't suck.

I would hope he would stack these numbers against these shite teams.

Happy he's not playing like a puss.

Carry on

The first quarter of that Lakers Spurs game just looked like terrible basketball. Looked like they had Sochan initiating their offense. That team absolutely blows

The eternal question with AD and center is “When will he get hurt playing there?”

He hates playing at the 5 despite it being his natural position and the best way to cover up his offensive range issues.

Unfortunately for us, the Lakers play them two more times in their next three games.

Center or PF, it is only a matter of time til Toni S.C. reverts to his natural state....In Street Clothes.

Might be time to start scouting guys in the top 10 instead of hoping for victor. Still gonna get more depth on this team

I’m cool as long as the pick is in the top 5. I like Thompson and Smith Jr too

There are just a lot of really terrible teams to except a top 5 pick. If I’m a betting man I’d bet the rockets, spurs, pistons, magic, hornets, thunder all have a worse record than the lakers when it’s all said and done. I think the lakers will fall in the 7-9 pick range almost by default.

I put the Magic even with the Lakers. Thunder are better, at least until they shut down SGA. Once Toni goes down, Lakers could easily go on a 1-9 skid.
