quote:
"I'm not going to make excuses for them," Popovich told reporters in Charlotte's Time Warner Cable Arena after the Spurs fell to the Hornets 91-88. "Saturday, Timmy took them out for some of that room temperature tap water that he uses to celebrate big wins. Maybe he can handle it, but for a lot of guys, you know, that's too much."
quote:
Popovich said his team arrived at practice the next morning hydrated and a bit sluggish, evidence that the night had likely progressed to hanging out over at Manu Ginobili's San Antonio home, where the players practiced their Spanish and played canasta late into the night.
Spurs recalled Simmons and Boban
Oh ****, I didn't even know they sent Boban to Austin.
That's hilarious. 
I don't know what is up with Green, but this team is nearly unbeatable when he is shooting well. I think you just have to ride with him and hope he gets hot for the playoffs.
Is he in a slump or did he just play above his average the last few years? He still appears to be getting wide open looks to me, but maybe they are a bit more contested than in the past now that he had some success.

If Danny Green could get back in 2014 form, Spurs beat the Warriors.

He continues: "We've got a good core here. We've got a good bunch of young guys. And, obviously (we're) adding L.A. to that. As long as Danny stops sucking" Green, seated next to Duncan, was waiting for the zinger "and Kawhi is obviously on his way up and is going to be incredible, there's going to be a good team here for a long time. We've done that over the years. The organization has continued to put people into place where they're coming along, and there's no lull in what we do."

Is this for real or some sort of Onion article?

Maybe you were addressing Pop's comments above.
Damn.
Horrible news.
Sad to hear. Fight on, Sager.
Cancer sucks
Cancer sucks! I lost a friend to leukemia last month.
I survived the same diagnosis, AML, by the grace of God and the kindness of a stranger who donated bone marrow in 2010. I am very surprised that he relapsed. The hardest part of a bone marrow/stem cell transplant is surviving the periods of time when you have little to no immune system and graft-versus-host-disease. The survival rate is less than 40%. If you make two years post transplant, then you are considered cured. I ran a 1/2 marathon on my two year anniversary, crazy considering the challenging road my family & I traveled.
New technology is on the way that trains our body's T-cells to attack the cancerous cells. For some reason the body puts the brakes on our immune system, MD Anderson (where I was treated) and others are doing studies today that are successfully lifting those breaks. The success of those studies is the major reason Pres. Obama said we will end cancer in his state of the union address. I pray for Craig to survive and inspire all of the leukemia patients suffering today, particularly those innocent children who've not yet lived a full life.

What's up with Kawhi limping to locker room? Following on XM and it lists several tweets about it.
Oh God. Someone update please.
Come on, Kawhi
Right quad contusion, will not return. Sean Elliot said he'd just need ice and he'd be good to go
Whew.
Quad contusion = Deep thigh bruise He took a knee to the thigh on one of his drives. It's painful but not a serious injury. If you ever saw the movie Miracle, it's what the USA player had when Herb Brooks yelled at him and told him to get his gear on.
Is Kawhi ok? Saw him leave the court but never got an update.
ETA: nvm, post above mine finally loaded

I say rest Kawhi for at least the two Grizzlies games coming up. No need to play him.
Ditto on Aldridge and Parker. And Duncan.
Let them get their run against OKC maybe, but I think the Grizz games should be heavy Andre Miller, Matt Bonner, and Kevin Martin games.
Just my opinion though.

That's something I think many grizzlies and spurs fans can agree with
So Boban came back strong... 19 points and 4 boards in 14 minutes
quote:Aside from Kawhi getting hurt there were lots of positives in this game. Danny was 3-4 from 3. Martin got quite a bit of playing time even in the 1st half. He shot the ball well and looked like he was at least hustling n the defensive end of the court. Boban had an excellent game mostly against Whiteside.

It will be interesting to see what Pop does on Friday and Saturday.
Kawhi for MVP
Kawhi was amazing last night. There was one sequence when he smothered a Wade drive, Wade had to pass it back out to run something else. Kawhi then switched onto Whiteside to stop the ensuing pick n roll. Then he boxed out Whiteside to grab a nice defensive rebound. He then dribbled up the court and drained a pull up transition 3. It was something else.
32 points, 8 boards, 3 threes and at least 3 and 1s. In 24 minutes!
