    Not surprising. I think the Mavs win in 6. Bad matchup for the Spurs.. THey really should be up 2-0

    Aldridge should have a talk with Lopez about defending Howard.

    Can't believe Aldridge is actually ahead of Sunday's pace. 23 in the first half? Wow.

    I think I'd come out in the second half and post up Wes the first few possessions against Harden, just to see how they defend it this game. They did it once in the first half, by my count.

    Moment seemed to shift the Blazers way. Houston's body language wasn't great heading of the floor.

    it's sad that the blazers need to play 8 on 5 to keep it a tied game. houston getting hosed in their own house, and the calls are going to get worse when it goes to portland. i'm not nervous, the nba clearly is favoring the blazers, so if that's what the nba wants that's what the nba is going to get.

    ROLO is giving Howard way too much space. Only complaint for the first half, I'd like to see Dame attack more. We need a run to get the lead and get it up and that occurs when we are controlling a more uptempo offense.

    Nice push off by Beverley on that last jumper.

    Very resilient first half. I like it.

    When the Blazers next get into the pentalty, they should seriously sub in Claver and play hack a howard until Claver fouls out.

    Spurs were 4-0 vs Dallas this season. Can't be that bad of a matchup for them.

    which he did. asik is just standing there straight up while LA pump fakes and doesn't draw a reaction, but the refs call a foul anyway.

    About the only thing I'm worried about for the second half is keeping them off the offensive rebounds. We gave too many second chances in the 1st half.

    Regular season don't mean much. We were 1-3 against the Rockets.

    The Mavs have guys who can create their own shots. The Spurs don't like that.

    We need to adjust for long rebounds. It's like the ball always finds its way over our frontline.
