Can't wait for this team to be whole and at 100% again. It seems like it's been forever since everyone was out on the floor and not playing through injuries.

If someone asked Pop the same question on TV between quarters, he would say, "I don't know. Good at basketball, I guess. We just try to get lucky. I'm a coach, not a psychic, I don't know who's gonna be good."
Back at it tonight. Spurs @ Kings 9:30 PM CT.
Manu/Bonner are OUT. Kawhi is questionable. Should hear some news soon.

Doubt they bring in Kawhi for this one, but fingers crossed.
First game of a THIGAFONI stretch....I say they keep the Kawhiian Island out for this one, then bring him back vs. UTA and HOU 
Thigafawaa?

Thought so just don't get the first I placement
FIGABABA: FIrst GAme of a BAck to BAck
SEGABABA: SEcond GAme of a BAck to BAck
THIGAFONI: THIrd GAme in FOur NIghts (obviously we kinda played fast and loose with that first "I" as you pointed out lol)
FOGAFINI: FOur GAmes in FIve NIghts
FIGASENI: FIve GAmes in SEven NIghts
There ya go, just in case I slip up again.

Kawhi playing tonight.
Neither team playing well, SAC getting all their points on transition dunks.
That's like 4 dunks already lol.
And not a lick of defense will be played this quarter.

LMA just erased that Macklemore shot
Interior defense almost non existent.
Oh ok, Kyle. If that's how you're feeling about things this evening....
Kyle looking good but why shoot with 7 seconds left
Anderson is playing amazing!
Kyle Anderson!!! Slow-Mo having himself a game!
The Kings couldn't even put together a matador defense. They can't even stay that close. Spurs should be blowing up the scoreboard.

Unless your name is Kyle Anderson.
I think the Spurs need Manu back before they will look anything close to polished. Hopefully he's not too rusty and the rest was good for his old creeky body.
Feels like we should be up more, but I can't be too mad about a 38 point defensive half.
SAC missed a lot of bunnies, though.

Yeah, you could tell the Spurs weren't impressed with themselves that half. Still a double digit halftime lead on the road. #spursworldproblems
Wonder what advanced stats say about Spurs starting 5. My perception is they're terrible together at the start of 1st and 3rd quarters. Surely that can't be reality as this is the best Spurs team possibly ever.

I think they are a very good defensive starting unit, but nowhere near the top echelon for offense. We have many more isolations and alot less ball movement out of that unit.
The Kings might be close to the Clippers as the least likable NBA team.
Was just thinking how much I hate the Kings
The players just annoy me
It's like they think they're good..

I mean we are making them look good tonight.
