We are 0/3 from three. Gunna have to start moving the ball and creating open looks. Gotta have to hit at least 4 or 5 in the second half if we want to win.

Diaw is playing pretty well. It appears he's decided to start enjoying basketball again.

We're shooting 58% and getting blown out. That doesn't happen very often.

Good news is that if we tighten up the defense a bit (and we can do that), we can get back into this game in a hurry.


Well unless Splitter dresses out at half, we are out of options on guarding Davis. It would be nice if our deep bench outside of diaw would do anything.

Diaw is turning into a volume shooter in front of our eyes! No hesitation taking outside shots. He knows Davis wants to lurk under the basket, so he's going to keep taking them until Davis comes outside.

I want to see Kawhi take over on defense.

Lots of the Pelicans screens are good, but any time the defender is going to successfully get over the top the screener is sliding out. It's going to be tough to defend effectively unless the refs start calling moving screens because every possession is turning into a 2 on 1. We might even have to go zone at some point because we're getting slaughtered on the pick and roll.

Cans can't miss, no answer for Davis, Spurs can't hot a 3 ball. Too many turnovers and iso ball.

Made a bit of a run but momentum is back with NOLA.

Spurs are on the ropes. I think these next 5 minutes determine if the Spurs repeat. Have to get it down to 8 or so going to the 4th. I just don't see this team winning 3 or 4 series on the road. Of course I hope I am wrong.

The only question is when will Pop throw in the towel. It is just one of those nights.

Really wanted the 2 seed. Running the table from #6 given how loaded the West is may be near impossible.


Are you an undercover hater?

Chill man. The Spurs may still get what is basically the 4 seed if the Pacers come through. Even if not, the Spurs will own the clips or rockets in round 1.

Yes it sucks to not get the #2 seed, but don't be so dramatic.

A championship team needs to win road games.

We pull it in close. Then turn it over. Just frustrating to watch.

Round 1? We obviously have very different goals for this team. If anyone can win as a 6 seed, it is the Spurs but odds are much better as the 2 seed. That's simple math.

Playing the clips in round one will be rough.

This ain't your daddy's 4/5/6 seed.

Not dramatic at all. Rarely do low seeds win it all. We will be bucking history and stats to win it all out of a low seed. If anyone can do it it's the Spurs in a close west, but don't act like this game didn't make the path infinitely harder.

THIS is the price we pay for losing at the Knicks.

Or giving away a won game over the Cavs.

Take your pick.

The Spurs will be favored in their first two series regardless of whether they have home court.

My guess is the oddds went from probably around 50% to probably less than 25%. We went from the favorites to the underdogs. For the 10th time, the veteran Spurs can do it, of anyone can, but this is a big blow.

If y'all lose, it'll be the clips or blazers. You can't lose tonight and play the rockets in the first round.
