    I dont know about about...but the Spurs closed the 2nd really well...and were abusing our small lineup with Ryan Anderson.

    I learned a while ago
    ANYONE can be a superstar . . .. if the Refs want them to be

    A few extra steps here
    some palming there
    a few calls or non calls over there

    His standing reach / wingspan are essentially identical to Capela and Nene, and he's a better leaper than either.

    Harden has 7 assists but it felt like he had more. He was putting on some really good passing sets together. Lou finally looks AGGRESSIVE. Once he dosent hesitates to shoot he looks amazing

    Those people are just saying that it's necessary because our coach is an idiot that doesn't value that stuff.

    I'm just going to say that with all the respect for Kenny i'm happy we didn't pick him as coach, i think we just passed another McFail

    I think most that say that about Harrell, including myself, are talking about how some people want to see him at the 4. It wouldn't work. He wouldn't spread the floor at all.

    People were saying they wanted him at the 5 tonight... not the 4. That's just my opinion though.

    I have an uncomfortable feeling, but I think missing Capela was huge. If he stays on the court, we should be ok, but I'm worried about this Nene injury...

    Hardly a comfortable lead. Rockets will have to come out smoking in the second half. Don't have a good feeling. Rockets have to pick up the pace, and where is rim protection coming from? Going be tough to win. Will have to fight every minute.

    Because they are a SMART team and drove to the rim for layups, because there was no shot blocker, meanwhile we kept shooting jumpers.

    I was shocked how much he bodied Ariza on the block . . . you could see Ariza's whole body shift when Kawhi hit him

    It's cause our lead went from 14 to 4

    Hopefully we come out firing in the third build it up to 20

    that's not true. we're getting even fewer free throws now. at this rate by game 5 the refs are just going to start taking points off the board when we drive to the basket.

    We need to learn the art of the Gasol scream. That apparently guarantees a whistle.
