FWIW, I love to be finally out of that Dallas series too... that can't be overstated enough... even ing Jae Crawer (or whatever his name is) was hitting last second 3 pointers... even contested.
Devin Harris shooting was bull , but Devin also was once tried out as a franchise player (in NJ nonetheless) and even managed to average over 20 ppg in a season.
Mo hasn't even been healthy enough to be anything more than a energy guy off the bench. Anything can happen, but I hope his choking streak continues, tbh
Mo is a much better 3 point shooter though, so I guess sometimes better be lucky than good.

That's obvious, but the problem is we almost never even contain them like we do with most other "top 5s". They just go off every time, and they're certainly not doing that to the rest of the league every time. It's something to be concerned with.
Of course it isn't like we're drawing up defensive strategies for our Spurs, but they're going to be huge problems.
same here. trolls downstairs were making fun of Spursfan for being happy to be past an 8th seed, but I don't give a , that was a trap series from . Same people saying it was no big deal would've shat on this board endlessly had the Spurs lost. Mavs were hitting like every fluke shot imaginable. It's a good thing the Spurs got exposed to it now and survived it.
It feels good to be the team who finally handed Dirk his first game 7 loss of his career.
Lol some said easy series or sweeeeep... I thought 6 games. Rivals are tough.

Theyll be problems. Aldridge most likely will have high numbers.
Again, I'm failing to see your point. Theyll put Green on Lillard, possibly Leonard and Parker and switch it up ALA Dirk to throw different looks.
I think if you make Lillard a one on one PG and force him to handle the ball and not let them move it.
Perimiter defense will be key in this series. No open looks for Matthews or Batum or Lillard. Contest and stay at home. Force one on one matchups.
Done ... next
Jay crowder bombs a 3 from deep, and spurs lose by two
I forgot that Mo was on that Clippers team. I was about to say that Mo has been swept by the Spurs twice, but I was wrong in thinking he was on the 2007 Cavs.
Blazers better be ready for Mills tbqh. I already know Mo is going to bring it, but I think Patty ends up on the winning side of this battle.
By default.
Didn't he try to start some with a rookie last series?
What a small punk
This should be a really tough series. Mo has lots of history with having the Spurs' number. At least Andre Miller moved to the Eastern Conference. Hopefully, the Mavs prepared the Spurs for what they'll see from the perimeter vs Portland.
Mo has been a Spur killer...... in the regular season. You go back a couple seasons ago when he was with LAC, in the reg season he killed us I think he had like a 40 point game or something like that, but in the playoffs he didn't do anything. The only difference is that this season he has a bigger role with the blazers than he did with the clips.
Spurs will figure it out I reckon
Just frustrate him and Lillard.
what was that, 3 seconds after coming into the game?
glad Choke Williams is still doing his thing in the playoffs, tbh... hope he keeps playing like that for the rest of the series
Re: ROUND 2, GAME 1: BLAZERS @ SPURS - 5/6/14, TUESDAY, 6:30 PM (PST), TNT
There's no way Mo is brought back after he opts out, right? There's too many actual good free agent point guards out there this summer.
When he hit the first couple of shots I was like here we go but then he went on to be perhaps the worst player on the floor.
Keep it up, Mo
All night I kept waiting for this guy to go off. I will be like that until this series is over tbh.
