Bad shooting, but it didn't matter. Steph has missed his last 18 three point attempts in that damned arena :confused:

Um, yeah....

Anyways, huge game against the dinos tomorrow......virtually the same records in the east. Be a great test for us after blowing out Orlando. Heartbreak against the beard the other night.....as the season goes, we are getting to the point where we can compete with anyone. :rockon:

Bad second half. KD not shooting well. A win is a win though.

Looking forward to the supreme test tonight. IT still out.....looking for a breakout game from an increasingly confident Jaylen. :thumb:

The Spurs will be a tough one. That's Juana's team, isn't it?? :hs:

We have the 76ers tonight. I don't want to be premature, but it'll probably be a 'W'.

I think he loves to hate them. :lol:

Spurs will be really tough, but I never look past Philly....lots of young talent, but yeah....you should take it. How far is the arena from where you live?

Not too far. On public transit, it's about 30 minutes...about 5 miles.

Lakers are my team but I go to a lot of Spurs games and I love Pop and his approach to things. So just by proximity they have become my second team living in the Austin area and having a friend that works high up in the organization to hook up great tickets doesn't hurt either.

Yeah I was legit sad today about Craig just as I was about Stu. I count my blessings everyday I was able to survive going thru that bullshit. Hopefully we find a cure.

Can't complain really....I like Smart on Westgod. He's just a fuckin assassin. And yes, this team, healthy, can compete. :rockon: IT is on the cusp of greatness. :nod:

Good game!I almost switched if off after the first quarter..lol. Kevin Durant was excellent was excellent with the blocking. Glad the Raptors picked up the space in the second half.

So I went to Duncan's jersey retirement and I was actually pretty impressed with how Holt and co put that together. Needless to say with KG, Bean, and Timmy all gone in the same summer is just sad.

Lakers are still learning and growing into their roles. Fun to watch but frustrating when they're up 20 and blow leads.

SA is and always has been a class org. They are as close to the Pats in bball it can get.....a bit boring but no leaks, no cracked parts, fully greased and firing on all cylinders. KL is going to take them far.

Fakes are passing, learning to play d, and have finally graduated from those dreadful last 2 Kobe years. I thought they'd be a bit farther along, but they really are at ground 0 in the rebuild. I see them as a .500 team for the last quarter of the season. Next year, a .500 team all year.
