    The NBA 4 step travel. Spurs seemed to perfect it. Ref's seem to ignore it.

    Tough to beat the Spurs when they play this perfectly. Huge win just to still be in it. I hope they cool off dammit.

    Yep, that was silly. Simmons wasn't square AT ALL in fact Harden ran into his back barely and he just fell down.

    I'm convinced after all these years Pop teaches these dudes how to flop.

    they've scored on both possessions right after the choking pelicans missed free throws. 8 pt swings.

    Simmons is the type of player that will get 2 points at best against GS... we let trash like this go off.

    If Gordon and Anderson shoot free throws like they should, we are up. Great quarter offensively - just not sure we can sustain hitting 50% from 3.

    Harden has that look. I don't care that he has 2 fouls - I feel like he's going for 40+ tonight, and we need it for the W

    We need more fire on the defensive end. I'm looking to Bev and Ariza to get into these guys and force some turnovers. This is war, fight for it.
