Kawhi Leonard Spin Move Puts JJ Reddick On His Rear (Video)
The San Antonio Spurs lost their opening game of the 2015 NBA Playoffs to the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday, but the defending champs weren’t about to dig themselves into a 2-0 deficit on Wednesday night. So they came out and earned the 111-107 overtime victory on the road against the Clips. Leading the way […]

‘The Blake Griffin Show’ was on display Sunday evening at the Staples Center during Game 1 of the opening round playoff series between the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Clippers. Griffin filled the stat sheet during the Clips’ 107-92 victory, scoring 26 points and adding 12 rebounds, six assists, three steals and three […]

Spuran Spuran Releases “Spurs!” Song (Video)
Yesterday, we told you about the San Antonio Spurs’ newly formed band, Spuran Spuran, and their intention to release a music video. That music video was released on Tuesday, and it was every bit as odd as we expected it to be. You can watch Spuran Spuran’s first (and likely their only) hit, “Spurs!,” in […]

San Antonio Spurs Form 80s Rock Band Called “Spuran Spuran” (Video)
I can’t really think of a clever way to introduce this story, so I’ll just start by stating the facts: members of the San Antonio Spurs have formed a fake 80s rock band called Spuran Spuran. Its members include Matt Bonner, Aron Baynes, Kawhi Leonard, and Patty Mills, plus the Spurs creepy coyote mascot, presumably […]

James Harden and Gregg Popovich Compare Beards (Video)
The San Antonio Spurs hosted the Houston Rockets in a possible first-round preview on Wednesday, but it’s still only the regular season. So we’re not really that interested in the actual game itself. We are, however, interested in seeing James Harden and Gregg Popovich compare facial hair during a break in the action. You can watch Harden and Popovich exchange beard […]

Tim Duncan Drained a Three-Pointer Because His Friend Bet Him He Couldn’t Do It (Video)
Tim Duncan has accomplished just about everything an NBA center can accomplish. Five NBA Championships, three NBA Finals MVP Awards, two NBA MVP Awards, 15 All-Star Games, 10 times All-NBA First Team, eight times All-Defensive First Team, NBA Rookie of the Year—the guy has quite literally won EVERYTHING. So what keeps the fire going for […]

Marcus Smart Punched Matt Bonner in the Groin (Video)
Exactly one year ago yesterday, Marcus Smart was playing in the 2014 NCAA Tournament, where his Oklahoma State Cowboys would go on to lose to Gonzaga, despite his 23 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, and 6 steals during that contest. It was probably a tough loss for Smart to swallow at the time, and exactly one […]

Young Spurs Fan Gives LeBron James the Double Bird (Video)
The San Antonio Spurs may have beaten LeBron James and the Miami Heat in last year’s NBA Finals, but the Spurs fans still haven’t forgotten that it was James and the Heat who robbed them of an NBA Championship in 2013. Because of that, they still hate LeBron. And when they hosted James and his […]

Kyrie Irving Buzzer Beater Helps Cavs Beat Spurs in OT (Video)
Kyrie Irving had himself quite the performance on Thursday. Not only did he hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer at the end of regulation to send the game into overtime, but he’d also go on to finish the game with a career-high 57 points during the Cavs’ 128-125 victory over the defending champion San Antonio Spurs. The Spurs appeared […]

PJ Hairston Flops Into Gregg Popovich’s Knees, Infamy (Video)
I’ve seen some bad flops during my time, but this has to be one of the worst. It comes via Charlotte Hornets rookie guard PJ Hairston, who apparently has a lot to learn when it comes to the art of flopping. For starters, no one is going to buy your flop when you’re trying to […]

Buzzer-Beaters from Gasol and Duncan Highlight Grizzlies-Spurs Triple-Overtime Thriller (Video)
Last night’s Grizzlies-Spurs game was quite possibly the best game of the 2014-15 NBA season so far. It took three overtimes to decide and featured back-and-forth clutch shots, including a pair of long-range game-tying buzzer-beaters from guys who don’t normally make long-range game-tying buzzer-beaters. In the fourth quarter, with the game tied 89-89 and 7.2 […]

Spurs Beat Cavs After LeBron James Turnover on Final Play (Video)
I’m quite certain that by the end of the NBA regular season, all will be well in Cleveland. But for the time being, the Cleveland Cavaliers are a disappointing 5-5 following a 92-90 home loss to the San Antonio Spurs that was capped off with a LeBron James turnover on the final play of the game. […]

German Basketball Team ALBA Berlin Beats San Antonio Spurs with Buzzer Beater (Video)
German basketball club ALBA Berlin didn’t win the German Bundesliga* last year. They lost in the finals to Bayern Munich†, three games to one. And no German club has ever won or even reached the finals of the Euroleague, Europe’s premier pro basketball competition. Why am I telling you this? Because last night, ALBA Berlin […]

The Spurs Hire Former WNBA Star Becky Hammon as an Assistant Coach (Tweet)
The San Antonio Spurs have picked up Becky Hammon, the second female assistant coach in the league, presumably to teach Manu Ginboli and Tony Parker to stop flopping and play the game like men. Or something. The move is a big one for the Spurs, as Hammon has 16 years of WNBA experience behind her, […]

Popovich Being Popovich: Spurs Coach Counts His Championship Rings During Victory Parade (Video)
On Sunday night, right after the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Miami Heat to win their fifth championship in the last 16 years, head coach Greg Popovich sat on the bench and soaked it all in, visibly overcome by the enormity of his team’s achievement. It was a rare look behind Pop’s veil of sarcasm. […]
