It's game day! I'm on my phone, so I can't format this post, but y'all feel free to add the pertinent details and analysis (even though ducler will cover us, I'm sure). GO SPURS and HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY to those who celebrate it!

When: Mar 17th, 2018 8:30 PM EST
Where: AT&T Center, San Antonio

HUGE game for us. I think its more a important for us than it is for them considering schedules.

Beside the usuals:Leonard and Butler I haven't seen a report of who else is out as of yet.
If we keep KAT from having a big game and we produce a little bit on offense, we should be able to get this.

Same starters as in the previous two games, the 24th different line-up of the season:

As for not in rotation yet, "...and then there was one."

Big game for us as imagump said, not only for crucial positioning, but this as well:

I'm having a Guinness to celebrate with our Irish Spurs fans.

Goddamn right. YES!
Read on Twitter


Our bench 46-26.

Six Spurs in double figures, three starters, three benchers.

Thirty-two assists to only five turnovers. 41-34 - including 14-10 on O - in rebounds. Eleven steals. Eight blocks.

LMA our MVP lead the way. Pau got a team-high 8 assists. Murray team-high 4 steals. Rudy team-high 4 blocks. Manu magic. Our entire team was so cohesive and resilient. So proud of how we played, coming back from an early poor shooting and deficit, but still playing D to keep ourselves in it, then focused especially late keeping our D intensity up fueled our ball and man movement, and precision and execution on O sealed it for us.

God. Damn. Right. I love our team.

GO SPURS GO!

Nice to see this game.
The big guys carried us, Aldridge, Gay and Gasol played great.
I'm trying not to get carried away. A home game against a team without its best player is nice but not playoff run worthy. Baby steps at this point though.

We got off to a slow start but once we started rolling we were unstoppable. LMA was outstanding on both ends, Gay made some huge plays that really helped shift the momentum and most importantly everyone showed up and played their role.

I like this little run we're on. The drop the 10th may have been the kick in the ass we've needed. We're playing playoff basketball right now on both ends.
