They damn sure will if the lakers can't manage to put a hand in anyone's face.

What the hell are we even talking about then?
MassAggie with a swift kick to simple's nutz.
Lakers need to work much, much harder on D if they want to beat SA. The Spurs got far too many wide open shots and easy layups. With our roster (basically the best shooters in the NBA and several guys who rank among the best in the NBA at finishing around the rim), that's always going to end badly for the other team.

Someone needs to gif Manu's pass to the Red Rocket.

Butthurt Simple is best Simple.
Tell us all about how the game means nothing, Simpleton.

Manu. That pass. That PASS. THAT PASS!!!!
This is the most complete Spurs team I have ever had the pleasure to witness. Not saying they'll win it all, but I can honestly say I've never seen a Spurs team THIS deep. And that includes 2003. Wow!
Just got back from the game. I'm still pissed about that foul they called on leonard against kobe....What a blowout. Hopefully the Cavs can give us a better challenge before the playoffs start.
Pau pau!
B-di, b-di, b-Gasall folks...

Just got back from the game... what a good time. So many Laker fans looking at the ground as they walked to the parking lot. Awesome.
Pretty complete game. Defense looked good at times. Spurs shooting was fantastic. And that Manu pass.... Wow.
Go Spurs Go.

It's funny when all those people who think depth won't help in the playoffs get run out of the gym by our backups, several of which would be starters on half the teams in this league.
Just saw the highlights. THAT PASS.
Won the past 4 games by a combined 91 points.
Great gif, Shark. If I had been Bonner, I'm sure I would have jammed two fingers trying to catch that fast ball.
Look at Gasol. He looks completely lost when Manu sends the rock to Bonner.

No, no, no!! According to Simplesimon, we only play well against the Lakers. Except for April 11th, of course.
Guys, I'm still waiting for the spurs to beat a playoff contender. Until then, let's hold off on the excitement.
Another vote for POP for COY.

COACH OF THE YEAR:
Gregg Popovich, San Antonio Spurs
Popovich
If Tom Thibodeau doesn't win this thing, after losing the reigning MVP to injury for a third of the season and keeping the Bulls ahead of Miami in the Eastern Conference standings going into the season's final week, I know what people will say. They're going to make the claim that the media know-nothings who vote on these awards didn't want to vote for the same guy two years in a row.
And I'll concede that there probably is a measure of truth to that for some voters.
Not here, though. Popovich edges Thibodeau for my vote purely for the way he has continued to speed up the Spurs' playing style and keep them among the elite when so many of us had finally written them off for good. Pop gets the nod here for the way his system continually gets the most out of whoever gets plugged into it, whether it's the seemingly limited Matt Bonner or the untested Kawhi Leonard or the unheralded Danny Green. Pop is the pick because, in addition to all that, he has also managed to massage the playing time so beautifully that only two Spurs average more than 24 minutes per game: Tony Parker at 32.5 mpg and Tim Duncan at a career-low 28.3.
Spurs president R.C. Buford has done an Executive of the Year-worthy job with this group by drafting a perfect-fit athlete (Leonard) and finding a way to add Stephen Jackson, Boris Diaw and Patty Mills to the mix in March -- as well as shed Richard Jefferson's contract -- with limited trade assets. Yet as one longtime Popovich rival told me: "Danny Green is the perfect example. He was almost out of the league. It's Pop who gets the best of these guys."
Which is why, whether or not San Antonio finishes with the West's top seed, Pop is about to double his far-too-humble collection of COY trophies to, uh, two. There have been the usual array of strong coaching jobs this season in addition to Thibs -- Boston's Doc Rivers, Indiana's Frank Vogel, Memphis' Lionel Hollins and Phoenix's Alvin Gentry are the other standouts -- but Pop trumps them all. Even when you add up all of Chicago's injuries.
Stein's COY Ballot
1. Popovich
2. Thibodeau
3. Rivers
December prediction: Rivers

We're lucky Bonner didn't blow the lay-in and nullify "the pass".
Without even clicking the link i knew who it was gonna be. Congrats Stein thinks Pop will get. A guy who knows nothing

Yet he gets six figures to write for ESPN and you eat cheetoes and play dungeons and dragons while posting on LakersGround.
Ill have u know its Sun Chips Garden Salsa, Battlefield 3 and i make 6 figures easy. Lakersground is right.
Also....you take pictures. Your job is a hobby. So shush.

Anyway, we know Stein's opinion isn't binding on anyone, but it does show that when you say things like:

you come across as an idiot. It's obvious that it's not the 1 man race you think it is. A lot of people are really impressed with what Pop has done this year

Same with Tiger Woods, Kobe Bryant and Von Miller.
Getting paid to do something most people do for free isn't such a bad deal. Alright, off to the Rockets game to do my terrible job.

One unsubstantiated IRL claim deserves another. Just speaking your language my man
the game is over, simple. go back to your thread, or whatever team LA is playing, jump on their thread. if your team manages to find the spurs in the playoffs, you are welcome to come back.
Larry Brown talking about Pop.
It's amazing, the level of respect between those two.

Y'know, Simplebay was right about Ginobili.
Sure, Manu teabagged an entire franchise last night, but fantasy owners everywhere probably benched him when they found out he failed to obtain any blocks or steals.

Teabagged.
Teabagged.
In twenty five minutes......teabagged.
on 6 of 9 shooting from the floor
I really enjoyed seeing RJ suck ass for the Warriors tonight. He is so worthless. Big mistakes that cost the team down the stretch while putting up a Jeffersonian 4-12, 0-6 for 9 points and 6 boards.
