    Are we trying to let them build up a big lead only to show them how it feels to have it slip away ?

    Only difference is pop will call a timeout and control that ****

    Its as if Pop knows Mike isn't going to adjust so he has run the same play 3 or 4 times in a row and scored everytime.

    Also man our D is...well...you can see it. Yikes-a-rama batman.

    Easy to do when you get elbowed by a guy of Hardens stature while he’s trying to run past you.

    Pretty sure that hurt as much as it looked like.

    It's honestly not about Bryn Forbes. The Spurs have scored a respectable but not spectacular amount of points. The problem is the Rockets aren't executing and are currently looking like they may not break 40 points in the first half.

    Westbrook the only one playing well and has the worst +/- on the team

    That’s why I don’t pay much attention to that stat . Watch the games

    All right! Can’t lose the faith. We’ve come back from worse.

    Why does the spurs coach keep calling a timeout as soon as the rockets build momentum?

    This game is an anomaly. Not often will you see Harden have 2 points on 11 FG attempts.

    If Harden wakes up we'll win.

    I dunno how James is the bad guy to you

    He is our whole team and entire scheme , when he’s having a bad game of course it shows.

    He’s been putting this team on his back for 5 years .

    He’s allowed an off night every now and then.

    He’s probably pissed that MDA’s solution to things going bad is “play harder , keep shooting”

    If we need to make adjustments on defense then ask the defensive coach because our head coach is clueless
