When: 8:00 PM ET, November 22, 2013
Where: FedExForum, Memphis, TN

Tonight's going to be our first real challenge in a while when we face the very talented Grizzlies.

The key to this one is going to be the battle in the paint.

Go Spurs!!

This is the game we lose.

We're playing on an away game, riding on a 8 game winning streak. So we're kinda feeling good about ourselves right?

For Memphis, this is their first home game after going on the road for their last 4 games.

To add, Memphis lost their last home game, a 103-87 home loss to the Toronto Raptors.

Memphis also racked up 4 straight road wins after that loss and has return to their original identity.

Yes, this is the game we lose. I'd be really glad if we somehow squeek this one out though.

I'm getting that feeling too. We really haven't =played a solid 48 minutes in a while and Memphis comes out strong we'll be in trouble.

This will be a tough one but the Spurs are one of the few NBA teams that play more focused on the road than they do at home. Also, I don't think this Memphis team is what we've been used to seeing the last 3 years. There is something missing with them. They are still a good team though and very capable of giving us a whooping if we let Zbo or Gasol go off.
We've benefited from a weak schedule thus far. The last decent team we played on the road was Portland so I'm excited to see us get tested tonight.

I'm surprised that the odds have San Antonio winning by 2.

I'm putting 20 bucks on Memphis.

Love the way Ginobili and Bellenilli play together.

I want to win but I hope Gasol is ok. Looks like he tweaked his knee.

They're so fun to watch.

Really good first half. The defense was amazing, Splitter did an outstanding job on Z-Bo and Tony and the bench carried the offense.

The key to the second half is gonna be playing like that again lol.

Memphis is making a run. This game is getting very physical.

I like the physical play but the refs need to call a foul or two already.

Wow what a move by Diaw.

Grizz coming back, now we are being tested. Let's see how we handle it.

Kawhi!!!

Going to be a great finish.

If we win this game Splitter's gonna be the reason why. Never thought i'd say that but he's been unreal on both ends.

Manu!!!!

We got this one! Great finish!
Whatever Splitter had for dinner tonight, he needs to have it before every game. He played well.
Might have been different if they had Gasol but I'll take it. As a team we executed great tonight.

And this ones over. Splitter was definitely the MVP of this one, he scored a very efficient 17 points with a variety of moves and along with that he played some unreal defense.

Manu was huge off the bench making some big shots and making some great passes.

Also shout out to Ayres for proving that he's not entirely useless. He did a good job on defense and made a couple tough shots in the lane.

He had a couple brain farts offensively but I'll take that if he plays tough like tonight.

Ya he did but I think we can chalk that up to him still learning the offense.
