No TP, Kawhi, or Mills at the very least. Gonna be another tough game...

I'm starting to feel a bit better about Cory Joseph the way he's been playing lately.

He's impressed me as well. I was nervous about him at the start of the year, but he's filled in for Patty nicely. That's going to be a boon come May.
This is going to be a tough game tonight. With so many injuries, any win against a WC contender feels like a bonus. We need to get out of this mini-slump, and this would be a great boost-game to do it in.
Go Spurs!

The second units going to key tonight. With no Lopez or Batum Portland's bench is going to struggle and if Manu and company can win the bench scoring battle we should have a chance to win this one.

I feel like the Spurs miss more easy shots than any team in the league. There's also long long scoring droughts. Missed their final 10? Hard to watch... On the bright side, Portland isn't better than the Spurs tonight overall talent wise.

That second unit yikes! Anderson coming because Daye was atrocious breaking Pops A team/B team competition. Anderson's defensive rebounding actually might be his strongest attribute right now.

Duncan and Green have been the most reliable Spurs this year

Danny's becoming a star... Gino's becoming 2013 Gino. Feast and famine.

Two late game travels in a row to tie us at the end of the 4th. Not fun...

So that forum thread a while back about who will be our 2015 breakout player... even with his Finals play, it may still be Danny Green. Wow. If he keeps this consistency and confidence up... O.O

Another double overtime! This is crazy, Tim missing that FT and that .1 second late three.

This is crazy, I mean they get all our close plays correct with review then they let the most obvious one go with Aldridge handling the ball out of bounds!

It's not looking good for the good guys.
Gino needs some time off.

I usually don't like blaming the refs but that call sunk us.

He certainly does. I don't get why he hasn't been resting like the other grandpas.
Spurs don't deserve to win if they can't hold their leads either. Frustrating game.

We really really really need Tony back. Manu cannot be trusted to be the primary ball handler when it matters.

In comes the bench, this ones over. Frustrating loss.

Makes me sad, because it seems like HE doesn't realize it. That's a difficult conversation to have.
