The Admiral

Same can be said about our series vs GSW when we made that ridiculous comeback in game 1 then got beat game 2. Problem is, the Mavs have Carlisle and the Warriors have Mark Jackson.

Potentially the worst playoff performance I have ever seen from the Spurs. Expected them to lose to the Mavs sooner or later, but not in that fashion. Ugh. LMA is playing incredible, so fun to watch. Definitely pulling for the Wizards in the East. These playoffs have been fantastic thus far.

That Memphis/OKC game was awesome. One of the best NBA playoff games I've ever seen. These playoffs have been great so far. Coach Pop Coach of the Year!! Well deserved.

This past SA/OKC game it was the Spurs 5th game in 7 nights (while on a B2B) and the Thunder had a couple days off before it. Hardly anything to look into there. In each of the other games we had players missing/B2B which is a shame because it is one of the best match-ups in the league. Having said that, Spurs have a lot of work to do in order to beat OKC in a 7 game series but it is possible. Thunder are simply built to beat the Spurs. Parker has been playing at 60% this whole year and just got injured again. Not looking good. Atleast Kawhi is in beast-mode. Rest TP till playoffs in some sort of hope of him returning to a somewhat decent health.

18 in a row. Spurs kicking ass. Brutal April schedule coming up, especially this week with a b2b with GSW and OKC. Actually feeling uncomfortable with how long this win streak is, lol.

15 in a row. Go Spurs Go.

Kawhi also hounded him all night. Probably the best defensive performance I've seen from Kawhi.

Lol. Didn't he shoot 50% in sleeves on Christmas?

NFL: Titans, Texans, Steelers NBA: Mavs, Lakers NHL: Canucks MLB: Yankees, Blue Jays Soccer: Man Utd.

Kawhi Leonard is an absolute animal on defense. Hell of a player. He is so crucial to the Spurs. Tim Duncan slaps father time in the face, yet again. Great to see the Spurs healthy again, nice win.

39 assists on 43 made FGs. :allhail: Spurs basketball. Beautiful.

Bron shooting 58% on the season and just scored 61 on 66% shooting. Mercy. Cases can be made for both LBJ and KD so I won't blink an eye at whoever gets MVP.

The Bobcats have a good defense and hold opponents to very low FG%. They have just got it poured on by Melo and Bron though.

Disagree, but I think we can both agree that your statement of the Spurs 'not beating Portland without LMA would have been pathetic" was completely and utterly wrong. Spurs finally get rid of Nando De Colo. Traded him for Austin Daye.

24 different starting lineups this year for the Spurs. Of course it would be more impressive if LMA was playing. Regardless , it was impressive as hell missing our 3 best players. And you say Portland isn't a playoff team without LMA. The Spurs wouldn't be one either without Tony, Kawhi, Timmy - so that argument is invalid.

And what are the Spurs without Duncan, Parker and Kawhi, exactly?

Uhm, yeah, they didn't have LMA... We didn't have Duncan, Parker or Kawhi. And it was in Portland on a back2back. Hell of a win by the Spurs.

Great win vs Portland (no LMA) with no Duncan, Parker or Kawhi. Manu looked good and Patty played a hell of a game, again.

Also keeps getting asked about KD.

Patty Mills came into camp this year in the best shape of his life. He was notorious for his towel waving last year but he worked his ass off and the results have shown. He has always had a great jump shot but he has really proved to be a jolt of energy and conducts the offense very well for the second unit. Luol Deng on the trade block again?

Lowest seed during Duncan era was 7th in 2009-10. Lost to Phx in semis Lowest we have been during a championship year: 3rd in 2007. Hoping for a good month of a healthy roster before the playoffs begin. --- Beating the Clippers without Tony, Kawhi, Tiago + a minimal Manu. Awesome. Patty Mills took this game over. He has improved so much this year, really going to be big for us as this second half of the season wears on.

Looks like Pop is going to rest Tony for the foreseeable future which I am very happy about. Kawhi (doubtful), Manu (limited minutes), Tiago (questionable) for tonight. Getting back to full strength slowly but surely.

Watched some of the AS events on youtube. Reggie Jackson looked like he was really coasting in the skills challenge. Preferred the old dunk contest format. AS game had it's moments. The 4th quarter was enjoyable. Stoked about Marco winning the 3 pt! I was surprised because normally he is a fade-away shooter or catch n shoot.

Excited for this second half of the season. First half was a bit of a drag. So many injuries league wide. Got some players returning league wide and it's time for my boys to step it up once Kawhi gets back.

ATL, Tim (rest) and Tony (back) won't be playing. Obviously - neither will Kawhi or Manu. And my goodness, Timmy was brilliant tonight. 31 pts/11 reb/5 assists. Great to have Danny and Tiago back. The chemistry is still a big issue because we always seem to have someone missing.
