    The offense will be much better in the 3rd quarter. I'm not even worried. We will make adjustments to help James (and EG/Lou for the bench squad) make the right decision. The Spurs have frequently loaded up the paint and hammered the driving player. Pace, better passing decisions, and more picks set up top will help to open up the offense. We need to maintain our intensity on defense and rebounding.

    They will. This season was a success as soon as they hit 50 wins. This is all just a bonus now. Things are looking mighty good for year one.

    He has to take those mid-range shots really.

    These refs seemed set out to take him out of the game. 2 baby touch fouls then that pile steaming of ____ 3rd foul.

    they are trying to hype up kawhi as the successor to bron after bron took curry's soul (former successor).
    kawhi is a great player but constantly pushes off and travels - no calls. he is very physical on defense - no calls.
    he also avgs 30-7-4 on 56/50 in the playoffs but bron avgs like 35-10-9 on better percentages and yet kawhi is the best player in the league according to some idiots. the media is a curse and has not only swayed the NBA/public's minds, but also allowed the refs to do the same with these egregious calls for him

    i would say anybody relying on free throw for points would be a choker during playoffs

    I just want to know why the NBA wants the spurs to win. I mean, seriously, who wants to watch 40 point halves? They did that like 8 times between us and the grizz.

    Such boredom. We and GS are the wave of entertainment, I just don't get it.

    It's OK man. You missed the ugly part. Everything is going to be smooth sailing the rest of the way. 2-1.

    29% from the field in the first half??????? I'm guessing that will change. If for no other reason, the refs get bored with nothing happening on the court.
