Another rough start.
And then close with a 13-0 run to steal it. Wow.LawHall88 said:

I freaking love Manu
Manu on Defense
Manu game winner

Well, that didn't suck
Manu has had a killer week

We're letting Jusuf Nurkic Man handle our entire team right now...
Our offense is terrible.
The Spurs had 22 turnovers and got killed on second chance points and still won. Their defense saved them tonight.
I wonder if that's because Murray is running the point with Parker out tonight. There's times when Murray looks good and there are times when he's inconsistent. Granted he's getting experience. Good win in Portland though. The Spurs always have a hard time there.

Everyone was turning it over, not just Murray.
Unrelated note, it's amazing how 40 year old Manu is still one of the better defenders on the court in any given game. He had several clutch defensive plays in the last couple minutes that helped seal the game.
Spurs have a historical winning record against every team in the NBA.
Obviously the only team with that distinction.

Our offense has struggled all year. I think when we have everyone healthy for an extended period it will make a difference.
Agree. Can't wait until we finally have a fully healthy team. The good thing in this is guys like Anderson, Forbes and Murray are getting more experience. I'm hoping when the team is healthy these same guys can play with that high intensity when called upon.
Yeah I think it has been tough for them to get a good rhythm with the injuries and players being in and out of the starting lineup. Like you said, once everyone gets back and healthy it should get better. With Kawhi on a minutes limit it's hard to get any consistency yet.Enzo The Baker said:

what happened to tbird?
It took me 4 views to see it. There must be something wrong with me. I was so perplexed.
In between Aldridge free throws Anderson came in but it looked unclear if he was coming in for Gasol or Gay. Gasol came out but you could see coach Messina and Udoka on the sidelines talking about it. Obviously, there was some miscommunication. I thought that was strange because you don't see that from the Spurs let alone with 15 seconds left.
The next timeout is where you see Anderson and Messina talking and it looks like Anderson told Messina, "You told me Pau." Was pretty cool to see Anderson and Messina squash that right away in the next clip.

I'm glad Kyle is back and his injury wasn't serious. I think if the Spurs make a run this year, and I think they will, he will be a big part of it. He's a good rebounder, his length is disruptive on defense and the offense runs better when he is on the court. He will never be a superstar in this league but he could be a really big role player.
Patty just hit 3, 3 pointers in a row
Wow. KA with a sick reverse at the 3 quarter buzzer.

Foremost in Morey's mind: beating the Golden State Warriors, who have won the Western Conference title the past three seasons, including two NBA championships, and eliminated the Rockets from the playoffs in 2015 and '16.
"It's the only thing we think about," Morey said on ESPN Radio's The Ryen Russillo Show on Thursday. "I think I'm not supposed to say that, but we're basically obsessed with 'How do we beat the Warriors?'
"Last year, the Spurs knocked us off, so we're very worried about the Spurs. They're always one step ahead of every organization and guard us better than anyone. But we calculated it -- it's like 90 percent if we're gonna win a title, we've gotta obviously beat the Warriors at some point. So we're extremely focused on that. A lot of our signings and what we do during the year is based on that."
God I hate the Rockets.

We all hate the rockets.
But to be fair, if you go back and look at our off season thread most of our conversations are the same way. How do we beat the warriors, does the player put us closer to the warriors, etc.

If you donate $21 or more to the San Antonio food bank you will receive a 1 of a kind Christmas card from Duncan and he will match the donation.

What we learned from the Spurs win over the Kings
That the Kings have one of the worst defenses in the league.
Merry Christmas Spurs fans!
Merry Christmas everyone.
Why has Leonard's injury been so "hush-hush"?
Wife and I are going to the game tonight for our Christmas present to each other. Does anyone know what time they open up and start letting people in?
