The start of the 2015 Gauntlet. I think we'll win the series cuz I'm a Spurs fan but it'll be interesting to see how the Spurs come out of the gates. We have the potential to destroy teams, but too often this season we've taken a qaurter, half, or game off. Bring us back to Basketball Nirvanna! Go Spurs Go!!

I would not be surprised one bit if we came home down 0-2 in this series. But that doesn't mean we still can't win it. Same old story. If we are aggressive we will win. If we let The Clippers control tempo we are toast.
Griffin and Paul can have big games IMO and the Clippers still aren't guaranteed a win. I really think the key will be containing DeAndre Jordan and Jamal Crawford. If those two don't have a big series we will be in good shape.

Remember when that article came out about Clipper players feeling that homecourt is nonexistent for them because of so many fans of other teams? It was after their game againts Golden State. I understand we're not as popular as Golden State and I'm not sure if we have enough fans in LA, but I really wonder if that's going to help us.

Anyways, the hope will be to steal one game in LA. The easiest to steal are usually the first game, so I hope we steal game 1 and go back to San Antonio tied 1-1. That would be a success.

Terrible first quarter. The offense has been garbage (way too many missed FT's) and the defense has been ver sloppy.

Hopefully we can take advantage of the Clippers weak bench in the 2nd and make a dent in their lead.

50% from the line, 0% from 3, 5 turnovers, Kawhi in foul trouble, Tony rolls an ankle, could it have started any worse?

10 natta run is a good way to start the 2nd.
