How long do you want to ignore this user?
barring a miracle, the spurs end the RRT 8-1. Not bad at all. They've played some good teams
In the books. Spurs win 114-99. Announcer stated that Spurs are "technically" on their rodeo road trip. You think?
Barkley picking Spurs to win the west on inside the nba tonight.
Barkley back on the bandwagon.
Selected statistics:

GSG!
Marc Gasol, when speaking with Stephen A. and that other dumbass on First Take picked the Spurs over the Thunder to go from the West.
Take it FWIW.

Saw this a few days ago. I've come to the realization that expert predicions mean diddly squat, considering the times Spurs have either surprised everyone or utterly disappointed.
If the Spurs are healthy come playoff time, I'd put them up against any team in the west.

spurs have to like their chances. although the thunder are a freakishly amazing young and talented team....
they still have to break through to that next level. they have yet to paly on a big stage.
if im the Spurs in the WCF, healthy and playing well, i like my chances against the Thunder.

Heard earlier that the Spurs might be without Kawhi Leonard, Gary Neal, Splitter, Manu, and TJ Ford against the Bulls tomorrow night.
Manu and Kawhi "out" and the others all game time decisions.

What happened to Neal?
i'm going to the bulls/spurs game tomorrow and really didn't want to see them blown out of the gym.
Pop said a hammy issue for Neal and a calf issue for Kawhi.
Neal can't be too bad off if he is a game-time decision, I hope.

Well I like the fact that they are struggling against NOLA at home. Hopefully Splitter and Neal and possibly Ford play. Ford is going to be nice after having Joseph play backup. Joseph is a prime example of a guy coming out too early. He has the potential, but is still 2 years away from being productive at all.
ESPN announcers showing TP some love and mentioning him in the MVP race.
Won't overtake Lebron or Durant in a million years, but still nice to hear.

These refs are garbage
Holy crap Noah's jumper is ugly.
Playoff intensity game.
I don't think the officiating has been particularly bad. But Korver tans? ****.
Damn the Bulls defense is good. Being down 8 is almost like being down 16 with a regular team.
And they're raining 3's. It's like playing the 07 Spurs.

The delay of game calls and technical were crap, but other than that the game has been called fairly even. The Spurs need to play more physical on defense. The game is being called loosely and they need to take advantage of that like the Bulls are doing.
Parker started strong and faded in the 2nd. No one on the bench other than TJ Ford and Tiago have really shown any sign of life. Gary Neal looks like garbage and Anderson is playing great one series and horrible the next. Never thought I'd argue for this, but Jefferson needs more time on the floor. He actually helps the offense flow a lot with his passing.

Noah is such a clown.
Noah is a freaking tool

Gotta get those second chance points

dammit, can't get any of the easy ones to fall. Gonna be tough to pull this one out
Yup. Gonna have to knock down a couple 3s in these few minutes to win this one.
In other news, rose is awesome around the rim.

Lots of Bulls fans at the game.
Yeah, I hear an usually large/vocal opposing fans.
Come on Neal, give us a couple more of those!
Man these guys can't miss.
