So much for the posters who claimed the NBA wouldn't allow any more teams to use black as one of their primary colours because there is already too many teams in the NBA that use black.

Heat look nervous, jittery and totally out of sync.

Spurs D is suffocating - which doesn't help.

So they are going to call it off the knee of Leonard but not off LBJ's knee earlier in the game.

I'm just so wildly impressed with Kawhi Leonard.

Yeah he does not play like a 2nd year player at all. Very assertive and smart.

He's a well put together kid but it's amazing how small he looks compared to James.

But he has that 8 foot wingspan which makes up for his "smallness"

Playing devil's advocate here: How much of his great play is a product of playing alongside three HOFers and a top 5 all-time coach? I agree he'd be a stud wherever he played, but playing for San Antonio would make anyone look great.

Don't get it, honestly. The PHX unies were some of my favorites. The new fractured S logo is kind of freakish.

Allen is turning the ball over a lot by dribbling. It might be best just to hang out near the 3 point line.

Dunno why but that S logo reminds me of:

Won't find me complaining about the black jerseys either:

Allen and Green are getting exposed once they are chased off the 3-point line.

James settling for three's when he has Green on an iso out high?

Soft.

LBJ is at least taking the shots that are given to him compared to last game. If he hits his outside shots then Heat will win. But the Spurs will continue to play off and go under screens on him.

This 2nd half is going to be interesting. Grind it out type of game
