    Nice to see him do it in the first half, when needed.

    I think this Duncan guy is going to be good.

    You've got to be kidding me. And Damian, Leonard was open.

    Yes because we're terrible at scoring points in bunches late in games.

    Damn Blazers go on a 7-0 run, Spurs reel off 7 straight. Blazers go on a 5-0 run, Spurs answer with 5 quick points of their own. Gonna be tough adjusting especially when we're not getting calls.

    Right now, it's CJ's 1-4 FT shooting and Batum's 4 turnovers that are holding us back.

    I hope Stotts adjusts and starts Leonard second half. Kaman is way better off the bench in his regular role.

    I like how we lifted our defense late in the second quarter. That's the standard we'll need for the rest of the game.

    Wow. Spurs shooting 22/50 and Blazers shooting 22/39. It's Batum's fucking turnovers and our FT shooting that is killing us.

    We got a few calls after Stotts got the T. Batum looks to be getting pretty pissed at the refs.

    Wes and Kaman have a combined 4 points on 2-5 shooting but you don't think that's part of the problem? And why is Stotts now only playing 8 guys? We're going to be too exhausted in the 4th to come back, just like the last game.
