If AG and Mario play 30+ this game..... We'll win. Book it.

The only way we'll be winning ANY games from here on out is if they play a major part in the game.

Nice thread SD. Have to stay disciplined defensively and not over help on the Spurs. This team will make you pay when you make mistakes. Continue to move the ball and push the pace on offense. I don't see them doubling Vuc so our spacing will need to be sound. Elf needs to play like he did against the Hawks and shoot with confidence, they are going to leave him open again.

If we can match their bench production, I really like our chances in this game. Let's go into All-Star break on a high note...LET'S GET IT!

If C.J. Watson really is back, that will be a huge shot in the arm for the bench. Not seeing Napier play except in blowouts would make me a very happy fan.

Yeah Timmy will play tonight and should be immediately in the starting lineup against us.

Spurs will probably be without Parker due to a sprained ankle. Have to stay connected with Patty Mills tonight and not let him get going. Play tight up on Danny Green as he is the worst ball handler at the SG position in the league hands down.

Went and lurked on Spurstalk a bit and they are giving us a bit of respect. They think it will be a very tough game for them tonight.

He was. Training staff brought him back to life with a satanic ritual involving virgin sacrifices.

Glad to see CJ back. I was hoping the Spurs would sit their stars tonight before the all star weekend. Booooo!

Maybe Miami wore them out last night?

Von Bismarck · Post #19 » by **Von Bismarck** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 9:00 pm

Call me crazy but I think we have a chance here. If our guys give 100% of themselves both offensively and defensively, I could see us win this one.

p.s inb4 Spurs come down at us with +20 in the first quarter haha

Possible. Spurs used the entire rotation last night against the Heat but they made quick work of the Heat in the 2nd half. We definitely have a shot against them tonight. Can't leave their shooters open, have to outperform or at least equal their bench production and cannot let both Kawhi and LMA go off on us.
