Manu needs to have a resurgence. I might even start him.

Here's that BS foul that got Harden three FTs.

Disgrace to the game.

That's such a terrible call.

All the Rockets fans saying Patty had his hands in the cookie jar was the only more disgraceful than that call...

But Harden doesn't get any "star" treatment...

"Any word on the severity of the injury to Tony Parker?"

Pop: "It's not good"

Kawhi playing defense on Harden much more, inserting Gasol to starting lineup to stay big early and then going small with Kawhi at PF was also productive. Those were some nice adjustments by Pop.

Might not matter if Parker is done though.

The Achilles is in the knee? Need to brush up on my anatomy.

Has to be an age and miles injury, as nothing about that play looked injury worthy. Really unfortunate

Adjustments I saw tonight:
  • Ran the normal offense instead of trying to play through Aldridge.
  • Started Gasol and increased his aggressiveness on the offensive boards
  • Played Aldridge on Ariza instead of Anderson. Anderson still got his albeit mostly in transition and second chance points, but it kept the defense from getting totally mixed up.
  • Much better effort getting back on defense, rotating, and rebounding. I do credit some of that to putting Green on Anderson though, as Anderson causes a lot of the havoc by pulling bigs away from the basket.
  • Increased all of Kawhi's ratings to 99
  • Dialed back the hedge on Harden in the pick and roll, which improved recovery time for the bigs and actually seemed to make it easier for the primary defender to recover. Aldridge was mostly just in the way in game 1

Aldridge managed a replacement-level performance, which was a vast improvement. Really hope TP is ok.

Seems like very little chance Parker will be back. Real bummer.

Yeah, when Pop will only say "It's not good" they know right away he's done.

Harden guarding Lee?


This. I noticed that too and Lee scored 2 baskets in the paint when Harden was on him. I do not understand why they would not give Lee the ball down low and let him have his way with Harden.

Also, does Anderson play defense or is LMA just not in a rhythm because he should be scoring in the paint.

I had a very similar reaction to that exact play (I believe).

Tony/Manu tied the all time record for playoff wins as teammates.

Tied Tony/Tim.

Wonder how far back Tim/Bonner is.

Harden's 'I just missed layups' when asked about Kawhi checking him all night was reminiscent of Lebrun trying to blow off Leonard checking him and locking him down in 2014.

Murray needs more run. But it feels like Pop will si something dumb and roll with patty and manu at point.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Murray start with Kawhi running the offense so he can still bring Manu/Patty off the bench.

So he's got that going for him, which is nice.

I hope Murray gets some playing time with TP out.

Parker's scoring is going to be missed. I don't think Murray would be the right replacement for this series. The spurs are getting open outside looks. And Murray's jump shot isn't exactly developed. I honestly think Forbes' shooting would be more helpful to the Spurs. I'm not saying he should handle the ball, but I think he'd be a good option at the 2, giving more minutes to Mills, Manu and Kawhi with the ball.

I also don't see Pop giving the keys to Dejounte to start in the playoffs. That's a hell of a lot to ask a 20 year-old with no consistent playing time in the season. I think we'll see Patty start and play over 30 mins. But then again, it's Pop, the same coach who pulled his starting unit in the beginning of a third quarter in a winnable game last series.

With all due respect, I think I will trust a 5 time NBA champion coach.

I knew it would take one loss for the Houston fans to start *****ing about the refs, and blaming them for the loss.

Quote:


Leonard's offensive brilliance was breathtaking, a historically efficient exhibit. He scored 34 points on 13-of-16 shooting, putting up the best field goal percentage (81.3) in Spurs playoff history by a player with at least 15 attempts. He also had his best passing performance, dishing out a career-high eight assists.

How rare of air did Leonard's statistical line reach? The last time a player put up at least 30 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds while shooting 80 percent from the field in a playoff game: Michael Jordan in Game 2 of the 1991 NBA Finals.

Due to road construction it took me an hour and 40 to get home to new Braunfels last night after the game!
