If they break the record, while breaking our own record, I'm gonna hurl

They are the kings of moving screens. They never get called.

Danny Green yet again is a liability. He is playing so bad that Martin is getting his minutes here. Spurs will only go as far as Green can shoot the three. Kawhi and Leonard can only do so much and this team bogs down big time when the threes aren't dropping.

Absent injuries, I don't see anyone even taking GS 7 games, let alone beating them.

Spurs played well IMO. Curry is insane and the warriors are just better. But I also don't think we were playing entirely to win. The Boban play was another experiment and he got some extended minutes in the 3rd. I think we're still figuring out different concepts. I liked pressuring the big man on the swing passes up top.

I'd like to see us run curry through screen after screen on offense though. Try to wear him out and bang him around

We really, really needed to take advantage of a slow start. For whatever reason, we let their guards poke the ball away way too early under the basket. Once again last a lot of points that way, or by forcing up rushed shots.

Seems like we are intimidated by them. Always play really tight. Gotta get over that **** before the wcf.

Announcer just said the spurs gave their best shot. Last I check TD and Bobo were out

Unless Curry gets hurt or Pop has some magic in the WCF there is 0 chance we win. The Spurs just can't do anything against the Warriors.

Blah blah blah BAS blah blah blah regular season blah blah blah doesn't matter. The guys are really trying and not on cruise control.

I would agree Ganondorf, if Kawhi, Green, and Mills hadn't played so bad tonight. If Green can give us ANYTHING we have a shot. Unfortunately he's been a bum for a long while now. He needs to wake up or we're toast IMO.

Starters hit zero 3s. Overall 17% on 3 of 17. Warriors defended well, but we had some good looks too. Danny Green is not earning his pay right now. We need him to figure it out before the second round, but he is running out of time. He has been off most the year. We need him on the court against Golden State for his defense so he can't remain an offensive liability.

Ya. All in, we lost by 6 when shooting terrible. GS played great defense. There weren't easy shots out there. Their speed gives us trouble on offense. We did grab 18 offensive boards though and held the Warriors to 92. Boban got key minutes in the 3rd. We were without Diaw. And it really took an insane curry effort to beat us. The defense was pretty good on curry all night. There were about 2 streaks there where we let the fast breaks get away from us that cost us.

I will never count out Pop in a 7 game series. He has definitely had some head scratcher changes in the past but he has also constantly made brilliant adjustments in the playoffs. As long as neither team falls asleep before the WCF, it will be a hell of a series.

If only there were 2 of him.

I think Pop was able to experiment a little and find out a few things that might work/not work. Sucks we lost but it doesn't matter. Let's get everyone healthy and rested for playoffs now which starts in less than a week.

And the Spurs need Boris to beat that team. He's a 30+ mpg player for us vs them. He's crucial.

Agree 100%. we missed him greatly tonight

Danny green is not figuring anything out IMO. There is no use in the saying "if green can get hot". He's just done this year. He is a bad offensive player and a big hole in the offense.

I worry about this team getting to the WCF.

Should we be worried ? I keep using the Boris is out excuse but i dont know if he would have made a difference . Has pop met his match ?
tmaggie50

I don't think it's pop meeting his match. And yes I think Boris makes a good bit of difference. Curry is just a different type of talent.

I mean holy s*** curry is being double teamed and lobs the ball up and still finds a way for it to go in, that and klay thompson consistently finds a way to get an open lay up

The Warriors are an all-time great team. Curry is unbelievable. Spurs might not be able to beat that team in a 7 game series without HCA. Saying all that, I wouldn't try to take too much from these regular season games. The Spurs and Pop are clearly experimenting defensively with the switching defense and who knows how they will actually play the Warriors once the games actually matter.

3-17 on 3's and met its match tonight. I'm not overly worried about the playoffs at this point. Need to take care of business before we even get to Golden State in playoffs.

I know Timmy is a bit out matched in this series, but get him and Boris in for some minutes and you don't have to play west as long and you keep legs ready to press out beyond the 3. Loved the attacking of the boards and the intensity that we played with on the glass and down low.

It's dissappointing that so many guys wet the bed on offense against GS. The teams that have beat them have played loose and exploited the small lineup. Honestly, Leonard and Parker should feast and they just haven't. Green struggled in both ends tonight and it's really inexplicable.

Bobo is a huge component for beating this team and you could really see it with him out. I hope he comes back fully healthy.

Parker bricked a ton of jumpers that are usually pretty reliable. Combine that with poor shooting from deep and no TD/Boris, and meh, deserved to lose. Not worried about them.

Dress rehearsals are done. We'll get the real McCoy for this matchup in the WCF hopefully. GSG

Boris is an absolute must against this team. He draws people into the paint (or else he scores) which opens things up for the outside guys. He is our best mismatch, whereas they have several guys that have mismatched advantages over ours.

It's going to be damn hard to beat them in a series, even improbable, but it's possible, but we must have Boris and a little bit of Curry regressing to great basketball human player instead of incredible robot that makes everything he puts up from anywhere on the court. .

And I like Draymond as well. He's an incredible player. He gets on my nerves when playing the Spurs, but he is exactly what you want in a PF and emotional leader of a team. He was also very respectful of the Spurs after the game.

This.

Let's not forget that Boris and Timmy were out last night. And I'm still hoping Spurs can hit that extra gear we all know they have. And for the love of God, we need Danny Green to show up.
