Great win. More than happy with the split with TP. Really hope OKC drops one. Tomorrow will be tough on the b2b and I wouldn't sleep on the Lakers.

Phoenix will be far tougher game than the Lakers.

Gosh that TD hyper extension was very scary. I really don't want him to play anymore these next three games.

I missed that. What did he hyperextend?

Very scary moment which took tim out of the game for a whole 3 minutes. Still worrisome though. That just isn't right.

25 shot attempts for mills. Dude thinks he's Kobe.

Patty played great. Pop inserting him into the starting lineup was key. He needs to play aggressive when Tony is out.

Mills was great tonight. Like what he brought in Parker's absence.

Timmy going down scared the **** out of me.

Well I can't sleep, so I'll address this.

Patty's job isn't to facilitate to others. His primary function is to be instant offense off the bench, and share the ball handling with Manu and Marco. Tonight, Mills wasn't very efficient shooting the ball, but without Tony and Manu playing horribly, we needed someone to get their own shot to open up the floor for everyone else. And that's exactly what Mills did. Also, he shot poorly from inside the arc , but was 6-11 from 3. If you're making that many 3s at that high of a clip, keep shooting. Off the top of my head, I don't recall bring frustrated with Mills shot selection and he never stopped the flow of the offense because he got trigger happy.

In normal circumstances, Patty is playing behind Parker and Ginobili isn't coughing it up every time he touches it, so he can play more off the ball and knock down open 3s.

Right now, Kobe wishes he was Patty Mills.

I'm always the glass is half full, so I'll role play somebody else for a second... Manu better not start that crap again in the playoffs!

No way in hell Duncan plays tonight right?

No way he plays tonight. Apparently he was limping pretty good after the game last night.

Shut him down till playoffs IMO. Gives him a week off.

My guess is big 3 is out tonight.

Damn. I'm worried that knee is gonna be a recurring problem throughout the playoffs.

I was surprised to see him come out from the locker room so quickly last night. Fingers crossed that his knee will be okay for the playoffs. And all of our players...

Duncan and Pop couldn't have been too concerned about his knee. He played 40 something minutes.

No way he plays tonight after that kind of minutes. OKC will probably drop one of their last few games anyway, so getting a win isn't the top priority at least tonight.

If it came down to it, I don't see the Spurs having a hard time going 1-1 against Houston / LAL. That's more than doable, since Dwight and maybe even Harden probably won't be playing anyway, depending upon standings of course.

Hmm I dunno about that. They have New Orleans twice, Detroit and Indiana. Could easily win all those and probably will.

Spurs still have the Lakers which should be an automatic W but I'd rather the Spurs not have to play any of the big three from here on out tbh.
aggie_2001_2005
How long do you want to ignore this user?
You could very well be right, but it seems likely they would shut down Durant and Westbrook for at least a couple of those games. I know they could still win without those two, but it seems a lot less likely.

Dragic is out for Phoenix tonight. That certainly helps our chances tremendously.

Lets hope our boys can find a way to win tonight without Tim and Tony.

Parker will play tonight. Duncan and Ginobili are out.

Are there any other big men that get as little respect as Tiago does from the refs? Dude has to get completely mauled before they'll call a foul, it's really frustrating.

This turned out to be a great game and with the win they officially clinch the #1 seed. I hope they rest the starters these last two games but we'll see.

Big time win. Love seeing leonard take that over. Great shooting from Danny.


Put me in the rest the big three for a week camp. They shouldn't play the next two games IMO.
Ulrich

Danny Gr33n indeed. 33 points on 7 of 10 from three. Not too bad.

4th quarter was great to watch. Glad they didn't back into the #1 seed. Still scratching my head over that Minnesota game but maybe that needed to happen as an attention-getter.

I want to see Austin Day play 48.
