    We could use a Kosta Koufos or some Larry Sanders right about now.

    Hes doing everything for the offense and i think he got gassed there but he has to atleast force the shot instead of giving easy freakin layups

    WOW looks like that meeting yesterday concerning the refs didn't change a thing.

    It's actually the Harden-Lou-Anderson combo.

    Gordon has actually been really good defensively all year.

    good to know the spurs can take a foul, then foul the crap out of us and not get the 2nd foul with a rookie on ego. must be nice to only give up 4 ft's every half.

    people say we're whining. we have 35 ft's in 2 and a half games! that would by far lead the league for fewest ft's per game. and we average the most ft's per game. that's called getting screwed. conspiracy, incompetence, whatever you want it to be. we aren't getting the same whistle as our competition.

    2nd half adjustment is Montrezl needs to eat the Spurs like BBQ chicken. We have all seen it.

    What would wreck the Spurs right now? Some athletic muscle big. We've seen Trezl do this all season. He can be that X factor and it's a perfect mismatch right now.

    We might need Harden to score 50 to win this game. Our D looks porous the outside shooting is inconsistent and with Nene out and Capela saddled with foul issues Harden needs to carry the load and be aggressive.

    I agree in general, but I wouldn't say Gordon's defense has been really good in this series. Merely average or worse.

    The Spurs might actually be just as good as the Warriors at getting away with **** .

    Seriously , if we were on that level , we would be sweeping tonight

    Even with Capela we can't rebound or defend. The O has to bring it for 2 more quarters.

    This series was over after game 2. between crappy refs and lack of shooting there is just no way we win the series.

    lou isn't exactly what i would call "tough' or "competitive" on defense. i mean even harden looks like he gives a crap everyone once in a while. lou just wanders when it's time to get back on the other end and how he can "korver elf" his way away from contact.

    This is another loss. Can we revisit 2015 and beat a 3-1 deficit?

    Everything is OKAY. However, we definitely lost some pop there in the 2nd quarter. Having Ryan Anderson down there by himself is a HUGE no against the Spurs. You gotta go to Montrezl If Nene is hurt. Having Capela back will help. I hope he doesn't get a foul for a while.
