    We wouldn't be down 26 to Dallas at home.

    Early on they were playing excellent. Splitter was really on Aldridge and they really clogged up the lane to get easy turnovers. Blazers couldn't even get a good look at shots the first 4-5 minutes of the game.

    They set an early pace and ran with it.

    You never know. The Blazers are always flat from long rest. Dallas could come out strong like this as well

    Stop hounding this point. Even if we made 5 more layups we'd still be down 16.

    Spurs scored 65 points in that half. Count it. Sixty Five. Our "defense" has not showed up and on top of that we've allowed 8 offensive rebounds.

    Crabbe, barton. Get a good stretch you are starting second half. Oh wait thats what pops would do and theyd get 20 points a piece and play elite defense

    It's a 7 game series. If the Spurs shoot 63% from the field, and 71% from 3, for the rest of the playoffs, there isn't much you can do but crown them.

    Game 2 will be a much different story. I expected the Spurs to win Game 1.

    And that won't get us very far at all.

    Looking like I'll take a break from this broadcast for a quarter or so.

    Reggie Miller can eat my ass.

    San Antonio has allowed 8 offensive rebounds, too. :dunno:

    One team is making everything. The other isn't. It's a long series. Stop freaking out, people.

    I'm hounding that point because great defensive teams don't give up that many layups. We are missing open looks.

    One game. Only need to win 1 in SA to take the series. We aren't going to miss that many shots at the rim in the next one. Get some flow going in the second half and beat them Thursday.

    It's amazing how everyone is counting us out already. We have one bad half and that's it?

    It's because on offense our PnR is weak as fuck. We practice against a horrible PnR.
