Verde saw that call-out post and decided it was time to hit a three.

David West has bailed their ass out 2 crunch times in a row against top tier competition.

Is it just me or has Boris Diaw been a bum the last half of the season on both ends of the floor

He's not been fully engaged for some reason.

Its just so weird seeing Tony have 2 points and Tim have 6 and be winning by 13 late. I just can't get over how strange it is.

No kidding. His passes suck, he's turning it over a lot it seems, and his normal tricky defense is below average now. He was giving LeBron fits not that long ago

Uh oh rest of the league... Patty starting to look like the 2014 version again!

Regardless of the stats though, you gotta love the way he plays!

We've owned it on both ends. I'm not happy with our starts as of late. Vs Ok and Lac. We can't have a slow start against that team on the bay. They could blow it out early and be very hard to get back in it.

Take care of Portland on Thursday and then the Golden State rematch on Saturday. Looks like its setting up for a good one.

Like I said during the playoffs last year, this is the strategy the Spurs need to use against the Clippers (and several other teams). Don't hack DeAndre and slow the game down. We have insane depth and conditioning, so run these guys to death for 48 minutes. They will run out of gas in the fourth quarter. At one point the Clippers intentionally fouled and started calling time outs just to get rest... and it's the regular season!

There's only one team in the league that can talk about matching San Antonio for depth and we won't see them until the WCF. Get nasty and wear them down. Bring the ball up the court fast so they have to defend starting at 20 on the shot clock every possession, make Chris Paul chase our guards through a million screens, and keep crashing the glass.

Does it look to anyone else like Boris has gotten skinnier over the last few weeks? I kind of wonder if he's playing crappy because he's more focused on maintaining a calorie deficit and doing conditioning work so he can enter the playoffs at fighting weight. Probably seeing through Spurs-colored glasses here.

Not sure but it's definitely not helping his game. He's in a funk.

Probably having trouble with his nespresso maker. As soon as he gets it replaced I am sure he will be good to go.

That HEB cooking commercial! Can I use my knife...my glove is too small... Lol. And it's awesome how Lamarcus was brought into these commercials too. You can almost hear the conversation, "welcome to the spurs, now you have to do some local grocery store commercials".

And yes I know they've been out a while, but I still get a chuckle!

  • Leonard still drives a 1997 Chevy Tahoe that's nicknamed "Gas Guzzler." He does it because "it runs and it's paid off." (this San Diego Union piece from last year revealed that he also has a Porsche, but he rarely drives it)

  • Leonard freaked out after he lost a book of coupons from his sponsor Wingstop last summer and asked for them to give him new ones so that he could get free wings -- even though his new $94 million contract had just kicked in.

I just read that article, and it was fantastic.

Kawhi really is someone that Timmy and Pop built in their spare time. He's nearly the perfect Spur, nearly tied with Tim/David.

I know Pop and the front office will always get a lot of credit for some of the great moves they've made throughout the years, but trading Hill and drafting Kawhi is probably their greatest move ever. It has likely set the entire franchise up for another 10+ years, and after the run we've been on since David, then Tim, then Tony/Manu, that's freaking incredible.

I've always loved Kawhi...how can you not? But that article just shed so much more light on who he is, and, if possible, I like him even more.

First vehicle for me was a 96 Tahoe. Loved that thing.

Right on, Kawhi.

What's really great is that all the basketball 'experts' and even guys like Bill Simmons wrote that the Hill for Kawhi trade was the most balanced, even trade of all time. Hill has averaged 12 points, 3.5 assists and 4 rebounds as starting PG this year and is third on his team in assists. When was the last time a starting PG was third on his team in assists?

The more time goes by, the better that trade looks. What are the chances of winning the lottery twice with Duncan and Kawhi, much less have them play together?
