Spurs are hot and trying to make a push for the 1st seed. Can't see us winning this one, but I think it will be close.

And the Kings murdering the Spurs backups, so they'll be angry too.

I'll be honest folks, gonna get ugly. Might wanna have college hoops ready on the remote.

I feel like this game is winnable. Not likely to win, but I think we can come away with a win. Steven needs to straighten up and fly right, but he and Enes can do damage like they did last year. Andre will have Kawhi duty. Russ will probably have a rough game between Kawhi and green. I feel much better now that Victor is back. They still have David lee, tony Parker, ginobili, and gasol. They have weak spots to attack. LMA is the wildcard. If "I" was coaching the team, this would be the time to bust out taj to start on LMA. However, Donovan is the coach and he will start Domantas because he likes to cost this team games.

With how the NBA is scripted a thunder win is plausible

Good luck tonight fellas. Should be a fun one watching two of the front runners for MVP go at it!

We haven't had a five game losing streak this year, right?

After tonight we will. I mean it's absurd it's going to happen since the first four losses of the losing streak came to teams below .500. Thank goodness there's a ton of high stakes college basketball going right now to keep me distracted from this miserable Thunder season.

6 after Utah Saturday.

And the Nets aren't playing poorly either, they're Tuesday.

I'm with NT here, glad there's college ball on, might watch some of that or a movie tonight.

Just someone post for me in the postgame thread. My input:

Manu Ginobili: OLD
Tony Parker: OLD

Ahh.. good old Spurs humor..

The Westbrook missed jumper at 5:45- he penetrated and looked to pass and no one else was there. I swear that's why he missed the shot.

It was inevitable that he would. Sabonis will get it again but not this season!

Good first half. Roberson's defense is overrated. Oladipo needs to be traded. Adams is playing well and I hope Sabonis gets some confidence. He's played well. Kanter played some nice defense on Gasol a few possessions.

I agree on Roberson. I don't think he's such a DPOY level defender that it outweighs the fact that he's possibly the least skilled offensive player in the league.

I'm just floored/stunned we didn't let our opponent even sniff 60+ first half points. Heck, we managed to hold them to less than 50 first half points. Granted, I'm sure the Spurs will score 65 or more in the 2nd half, but at least for once our first half defense wasn't comically, otherworldly, mind-blowingly awful.

I was rewatching that Sabonis dunk a few times, and I just can't figure out how that's possible. Domas isn't very long, nor very athletic. Meanwhile, Dedmon is a long and athletic 7-foot rim-protector (7'4 wingspan). I guess it was due to perfect circumstances. Dedmon being late to rotate to Sabonis just enough to allow him that dunk. But even then, I didn't know Domas could finish like that through contact.
