    I want to see a full strength Spurs team. If we can defend the pick and roll between Duncan and Parker, and make it harder for them to make the extra pass, there is no reason we should not win.

    GO HOUSTON ROCKETS!

    Spurs can't D up athletic teams.

    The Rockets just may be the most athletic team in the league now.

    Shout out to Brewer last night, he had a few slashing drives that reminded me of Parsons. I was missing those this season.

    An easier opponent than the Grizzlies, but the Spurs are gonna be desperate for a win. So the Rockets better show up from the opening tip. Especially with the Wizards coming to town the next night.

    Do we really need Dragic?

    If he comes here, he would need to be your 6 man.

    I think you would be seeing the same ineffective Dragic that you are seeing in Phoenix.

    Beverley plays great defense, and shoots 43% from deep.

    That is what you need.

    This is going to be really tough. We are playing a pissed off Spurs team who has lost 6 of 7.

    We really need a secondary play maker when Harden is on the bench. If we somehow land Dragic we need to play him in the Ginobili role and stagger their minutes.

    Not really, just makes Harden carry the load at lot more offensively.

    and I don't think they have beaten us since the 2012-2013 season I believe? Harden saves his best for SA, check game 5 WCF. Hoping for another one!! go Rockets!

    I really don't think it will be "tough"

    They will be missing Parker and Leonard.

    Spurs struggle with athletic teams. We gooooooddddddd.
