Uhhh...

Our best player just had his ankle taken out on a heinous cheap shot and we should feel good?

We should have won this game.

Ugh. I hope Kawhi feels good enough for game 3. I don't see how he plays in game 2.

18-0 run and then losing the rebounds when up by 3 killed them. Gave one away today.

Dirty play + luck = Golden State win

I gotta give props to the Warriors today. They came back and won this game.

No. They didn't. Trash play won them the game period.

Lol. Sure, buddy. They came back and won by a cheap ass move and with the help of the zebras.

Quite the opposite. Should feel VERY disappointed letting this one slip away.

Yes, because with Leonard you win. He will be back and y'all will get the home calls when you get to AT&T.

Y'all got blown out Game 1 last series so, it's not a big deal.

We needed to rebound better. Those 2 offensive rebounds can't happen in the situation we were in. Down our star and so close to stealing a game and home court. We needed to be better.

But I won't give props to the Warriors for this win. Zaza is a piece of ****, and they were only able to muster a run when they knocked Kawhi out.

Spurs needed that one. Kawhi surely isn't playing next game. Would have been nice to get that one, split and give Kawhi a break until Saturday. Oh well. They had a chance to win. They played hard.

You gotta hand it to the Warriors overcoming their 2 MVPs and injuring the Spurs' only all star and MVP candidate to come back and take this one.

You should have won, Leonard will be back, and you'll get your usual AT&T calls.

Y'all got blown out game 1 by the Rockets.

It's amazing to me that the Warriors never get called for a moving screen. Literally every screen their bigs set to free up their shooters are illegal screens that never get called

The margin of error is a little smaller when playing the Warriors than Houston.

You also had Leonard healthy game 1 when you got blown out.

We can rationalize it how we want on either side of the spectrum.

It's crazy to me that fans of a franchise that has had so much success are worried after losing G1 of a 7 game series.

As a neutral fan in this series, the Spurs fans should be furious about this game.

Pachulia's move was absolutely intentional and dirty, and is the largest reason why they won the game.


That being said, the Spurs should still have won given how much they were winning by. The team mentally lost its cool after the injury. You can't ever give up an 18-0 run and expect to win.

Agreed.
Watch Shaun Livingston go double hand push off as well on his screens.

It is another reason it its so hard to beat the warriors. Only the Cavs will get those calls.

How is it being worried when we are pissed about losing a game we should have won? Oh, and we just saw our best player crying out in pain after tweaking an already sprained ankle twice..

I'm normally one to cringe at some of the overreactions by other Spurs fans. But this time, the reactions are justified. We needed to win this game.

Let's see:

1) Spurs lost the game after being in great position to win (were up by 23 points mid-way in second half).

2) Leonard injured his ankle again (not once but twice). As shown by what happened after Leonard left the game, the Spurs are absolute toast in this series without a healthy Kawhi. The Warriors are simply too talented to overcome not having a healthy Leonard. The Warriors are not Houston. Either Durant and/or Curry eats Spurs alive without Kawhi.

I don't see much of a reason for Spur fans to feel that good myself. If Leornard is not healthy for Gsme 2 then probably waking up down 0-2 in the series Wed. Morning.

Spurs should send Dedmon out in Game 2 to "cover" Zaza.

If you cant win up 25, you don't deserve s***. I'm so pissed off. Freaking disgusting watching that crap hole of a performance down the stretch. If they lose Tuesday...game, set match. Hell, It might already be over. Freaking terrible man

Not worried that we lost.

Disappointed that we had displayed to us first hand how good we can be and then have to watch us try to finish it with one behind our back. And it would have been a huge steal on the road after listening to all the hype given to the Warriors.

I still think we can beat them. But we need Kwahi to do it.

I think you can be pissed about losing and still not be worried. You were dominating the game.

Feel however you want. I remember y'all were pretty pissed against the Rockets.

I think you're all forgetting that between games there is another battle between coach Pop and coach Mike Brown....I think Spurs fans should still be feeling pretty good despite the collapse - as long as Leonard is able to come back.

See, this is a fair, rational response. You can be mad you lost, but the game I was watching before Leonard got hurt was pure domination.
