McDonough put a big in his ear when the game was close at the end, told him to keep the tank alive lol.

Seriously he was just throwing it up wherever he caught it, open or not lol.

Saw a note on ESPN... We're the 2nd team in history to get swept in a homestand of 7+ games.

Breaking all kinds of records this year. Glad I can say I was here following every minute.

Just realised RealGM's favoured starting line up of - Bledsoe, Knight, Warren, Morris, Chandler are all out.

Well, we won't know unless the team gives him consistent touches and minutes. You can't ask from consistency from Len when the Suns are only consistent at stinking.


This. Plus the fact that I wouldn't really mind if he only "put it together" after he signed with us for another 4 years. Bigs take time to develop, he is still fairly young at 22, and he spent his first year on the injured list.

Spurs really shot down Booker, but I liked his passing. Not too surprisingly he is hitting a rookie wall, and can't take a whole team on his back, with no other scorer on it. Wonder if this changes a bit after Knight comes back...

I really like Leuers game. I wouldn't mind if he and Hump would be our backup bigs, with Hump being the 3rd string PF/C.

Otherwise - we kept it close with the Spurs, and the tank rolls on.

Pressey looks nice. Has the ability to run the point pretty well.
Archie does not deserve to be getting minutes. At least he's not playing point anymore

Rewatching the game... 10 minutes left in the 2nd... Close up of Len on the bench... Chandler right behind him yawning... Lol. Knight next to him struggling to keep awake staring at something...

Bored veterans...

Since Bledsoe got injured:

22 Losses, 2 Wins

David Robinson's injury changed the Spurs for the next 20 years, every championship team starts off with some luck.
