Playoffs Game Blog: Spurs @ Grizzlies - Game 4 - April 25

[ElNono]

It'll get better once they figure that they have a big body backing them up... bench kept the lead... a first this series?

[DPG21920]

Mixed bag (to be expected after not playing a second then being thrust in during the most important game) from Tiago.

Marc got a good look on his first possession, but missed it. Tiago helped create a turnover and ran the floor well and even got a put back. But he fumbled a pass and nearly committed a charge.

Bonner seemed to play better with Tiago in though.

Wait, Splitter's in? Did Pop get ejected or something?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Spurs shooting 63% while Grizz shooting 42% and Spurs only up 5.

I'm happy with the 1st quarter, but definitely something to keep an eye on.

[CFH]

More Splitter! Don't tease me Pop

[Tp9gospursgo]

I don't mind splitter getting Blairs minutes. Blair is too undersized. TIAGO!!!

[GSH]

Vasquez traveled, but eh.....nice to have a 5-point cushion to end the 1st. The energy has left the building in Memphis and hopefully that remains the case.

Vasquez travelled and Hadadi travelled. But I'll take 5 point diff in the first.

[Cessation]

i know, right? Pop is a genius! Nobody but him could've figured that out.

lol

[timvp]

Splitter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111 1111!!!!!!!!!!!one11!!!!

[JonNOKC]

If MEM coach is going to insert Haddadi when Splitter comes in - makes playing Splitter even more of a no brainer

[NASpurs]

If you're gonna play Splitter please pair him with Duncan Pop, please.

Beggars can't be choosers!

[Spursnlego]

Continue what their doing. Memphis still making shots they shouldn't...

[Warlord23]

If they can avoid turning it over, they'll get some separation soon.

Also, good to see that Bonner-Blair has been (so far) abandoned

[suitedkings]

FU Pop, How is this fair to Blair?

[Fireball]

Suddenly I am excited again ... go Tiago ... go Spurs

[ElNono]

We need to get that 3 ball going... and might aswell start chucking now that we have the lead... just run something for RJ

[Spurs Brazil]

Good 1st quarter; Keep the energy up

Kill them

[ernest787]

this isn't the first time Splitter has shown he has terrible hands. Dude just can't grasp the ball for whatever reason

[DPG21920]

Either way, Pop pleasing the fans. Giving them what they want.

[MannyIsGod]

Thank god Splitter is playing in place of Blair. Hopefully Pop doesn't revert in the 2nd half.

[Pauleta14]

TP on the way to a 16 (!!!) TOs game... wtf

[roycrikside]

Parker is on pace for an epic 32-16 performance.

That last basket by memphis is the that has hurt us, they have put up more bull garbage that goes in cmon how ugly is battiers hook. This is reminding me of rex chapman when he was with phoenix.
