Starting Lineups:

Blazers:
PG - Brandon Jennings
SG - John Salmons
SF - L. Mbah a Moute
PF - Larry Sanders
C - Andrew Bogut

Spurs:
PG - Tony Parker
SG - Manu Ginobli
SF - Richard Jefferson
PF - Tim Duncan
C - Dejuan Blair

Taugh game against a team that ended Mavs winning streak. Keys are keeping Jennings away from the paint, get rebounds and have a good shooting night cause Bogut is good shot blocker.

Go Spurs!!

Bogut is awsome!!! dominate the game with good D.

Duncan with a great game, 7 block!!! nice

Manu, where making a buzzer beater (traveling, but who cares? 21-3!!) happens.

Great defense by Tony Parker on Bucks' last possession. And i loved Bogut's clutch blocks cause that means that we are not a soft jump shooting team. We suffered this game very much, similar to the game against the hawks, though in that game we hit 4 clutch 3s and the game was over.

Great win. I had this one down as a loss, we've had trouble with the Bucks for a while, even when they've sucked.

Bogut is an awesome player. Very underrated.

No travel, it was a hop step.

Yeah I had the same thought with DK.

When the shot happened, it look a little weird. Very much like a travel. But in instant replay, it does look like a hop step executed with no body control whatsoever. Hop step, usually you hop forward and with force. Manu's like hopping sideways with no body control and falling. So it looks really weird.

I'm still not sure what that was. It does have grounds as a hop step IMO since he hopped sideways to square up for the shot.

Anyways, I'm glad that we won and we also played poorly in that second half. Imagine if we just blow them out big time, no matter how fresh the big 3 are for Denver, I don't think there'll be any sense of urgency. Now Pop's upset and the team knows it didn't play well. Denver is without Billups and Melo turmoil. I got San Antonio for another win.

Appreciate it a lot buddy.

I'm working on the Denver game thread right now.
