1. Up 1 towards mid 3rd qtr the spurs looked ready to take off and Mills missed two straight 3s on the same posession. I feel that could have opened up the game a little for us. Instead they scored on the other side and back and forth trading leads.

2. TPs 3pt was almost inside the basket and rims out in a very unlucky fashion. I think we were down 2 at that point end of the 3rd, Paul hit a 3 on the other end. Big time 6pt swing.

3. The obvious, no excuse for missing 4 fts in the middle of a run in the 4qtr. That about did it for us.

The Clippers' run after Rivers took out Jordan with a few minutes remaining in the 3rd was the killer, tbh..

Yep, I think 1 and 2 are key swings from that run

That TP 3pt that rimmed the basket and Paul hitting a three on the other side was a big momentum change. I think we were down 3 and could have tied but ended going down by 6. TP needed that 3pt and so did the Spurs.

Diaw should have launched that trey.

Before that Porker tried doing his hero ball possessions and came close but rolled out.

There was also a key sequence where we got a stop but couldn't corral a rebound with the ball just tipping off Kawhi' s reach only for Griffin to get it and lay it in.

sending cp3 to line for 6 straight points after dj went out in the 3rd. can't let that happen. if they just execute there (mainly manu and tony's fault), probably hold a 2-3point advantage going into the 4th and psychological advantage over clips.

also, danny hitting anything would have helped.

Pop intentionally fouling DJ slowed the team, fucked up the rhythm on both ends, and basically you saw our team mentally hang it up knowing they were puppets on a string.

Paul getting 6 easy points via dumb fouls, Mills' missed 3s, and Manu missing that layup right at the rim took us from what could have been a 4-6 point lead to a 5 point hole. That stretch of plays turned the game.

A lot had to do with daddy's boy going off. Hopefully that was just a game 4 thing. If it becomes a trend, Spurs could be in some trouble

If the Spurs can't stop Auscrub Rivers from here on out we might as well throw in the towel.

Well, Doc told him he's grounded if he doesn't start playing better. "1 week of no Xbox for every shot you miss". "Yes poppi"

The hack of Jorden put them in the bonus and that didn't help. It actually ignited the Clippers run when Rivers puled Jorden out. That silly hack a shit rarely works, it just fucks up the flow for both teams.

Pretty much every 3 Danny Green took could have a momentum changer but of course missed them all
