Lol Gay just flat shoved Grant because he was pissed he couldn't get by him

Respect to Ginobili for still being able to provide something for a playoff caliber team. Dude's 40.5 years old...

Then grant goes flying like he was shot on the next possession

I think we need a 30+ points lead after the first quarter to have a chance against a good team

Our offense was PG13 dancing with the ball, Jerami Grant dancing with the ball, Rudy Gay bail out foul

We are going to lose by double digits.

Time for another Team meeting, Donovan needs to be in the hot seat after he's let so many games get away from him

Is that the first pull up jumper of Jerami's career?

Pretty impressive that Michael cage can post and call a game at the same time.

We don't just blow leads, we blow leads in spectacular fashion. We were up by 23 bleeping points at one point in this game and it's going to end up being a loss to the Kawhi Leonard-less Spurs.

At this point, I'm thinking only a 25+ or 30+ point lead is safe against the good teams of the league.

It's not that we just blow leads, either. It's that we let 20ish point leads melt away so quickly. Instead of our opponent needing all of one quarter and part of another chip away at a 20ish point lead against us, they only need 6-8 minutes of a quarter to turn a 20ish point deficit into a respectiable game.

Russ is having an awful game...again. Common theme this season.

I hate you for your relentless optimism, I'm blaming it for thus dumpster fire of a season.
