Why was Kawhi Leonard on the bench? Why depend on Patty Mills to generate a last second shot?

Indeed.

And if our offense looked as bad as that played by both teams in the overtime, we would have a mass suicide.

Harden is great but man he makes a lot of turnovers. Well, they do ask him to run the whole offense when he's out there.

It's always interesting seeing these guys who are used to getting 20 free throws a game deal with not getting every call in the playoffs.

The Spurs have 6 guys in double digits, with no Tony Parker of course. One way or another, they generally figure out how to get it done.

Manu dug in the vaults for that performance.

Manu with a flash back performance. Won the game with his defense.

On top of that, no Kawhi Leonard for the entire overtime.

This is what the Bulls needed from Wade what Ginobli gave....a vintage game which never came from Wade.

Got a raging justice boner from seeing a team like Houston cry about not getting the calls. Best game of the playoffs thus far (doesn't say much).
KC: Do you still think you're a championship-caliber team?
Gar: I never said that and correct me if I'm wrong

They'll get them in Houston. Game 7 is on the menu.

So that was the 1st good game these playoffs, took a while.
KC: Do you still think you're a championship-caliber team?
Gar: I never said that and correct me if I'm wrong.
KC: You were asked that question at the news conference announcing Thibodeau's dismissal and you answered yes
