GT: Warriors vs. Spurs

Post #1 » by **Nolan** » Wed Mar 20, 2013 7:28 pm

When: 8:30 PM ET, March 20, 2013
Where: AT&T Center, San Antonio, TX

Starting Lineups:

Warriors:
PG - Stephen Curry
SG - Klay Thompson
SF - Harrison Barnes
PF - David Lee
C - Andrew Bogut

Spurs:
PG - Cory Joseph
SG - Danny Green
SF - Kahwi Leonard
PF - Tim Duncan
C - Tiago Splitter

Coming into this game we've beaten the Warriors in San Antonio 28 straight games, so hopefully we can make it 29 straight games tonight.

Our focus tonight has to be our team defense. We can't have a repeat of what happened against Cleveland because the Warriors will torch us if we give them that many open/easy looks.

Go Spurs!!

Hope they can guard Steph Curry properly. if you give him space - splash.

Nice W, a defensive effort. 6-12 from 3 looks bad but the fact that the Warriors only got 12 3PAs should help.

Curry/Lee/Bogut held to bad shooting numbers; even Jarrett Jack had a below average game.

I just saw the stats: is this Tim Duncan for real?

Nice win. No disrespect to the Warriors, but I'd love these guys in the first round. I think they'd be an easy out, definitely easier than Houston or LA.

Loved Timmy's game tonight. He took it to Bogut who played him tough. Nothing was easy for him.

I think Pop needs to give Joseph's minutes to de Colo, he's the better player IMO. Where was Neal tonight? DNP-CD? If no injury, surely he can offer more than Joseph?

I love Splitter's confidence, particularly on the offensive end. He knows where to be and he and Ginobili have a nice synergy going on. Speaking of which, I love Manu as our primary ballhandler. It instills me with a lot of confidence when the rock is in his hands.

I know it was a relatively average game for him, but holy crap Steph Curry is an amazing player. Just a joy to watch.

If I were Pop, assuming a healthy roster, I'd run more off-ball sets for TP. Denver killed OKC by having Iguodala and Gallinari run a two-man game and using Lawson as a cutter. If we run sets for Ginobili and Leonard and Parker as a threat to shoot corner 3s or cut to the basket that could negate the whole "Thabo on Parker" thing.
