If the refs keep doing what there doing than the series is over......Yeah the spurs played like dog poop but hey the spurs always bounce back....but if the refs keep thunder-reffin it than its over for the spurs......
This series is gonna be over quick unless Pop actually coach like he gives a damn (he can start by shaving off that beard tbh), and TP actually plays like an NBA player
Diaw does not have the mismatch over Griffin so the Spurs are relying on Parker to run the offense and run it well. All game long the Spurs shot poorly, and IMO this was no fluke, they struggled to get good looks all night long and on the defensive end Pop has commit to a defensive scheme and stick to it because the Clippers got EVERYTHING they wanted

I agree to an extent, but I thought the Spurs did get plenty of good looks, tbh..
Green was 1-7 from 3, he's just a 35% 3-point shooter on the road, but 47% at home..if he gets the same looks, he probably goes 5-7 from 3, which probably changes the complexion of the game..
Pop does need to make adjustments, though, particularly defensively, and with the Leonard double-teams..
Let's not blame the refs. A few bad calls (ball out of bounds that led to fast break) but nothing awful. They let teams play and Spurs weren't physical.
Time to #TankForOkafor imo.
Spurs lost the pace battle. But that's bc they shot so poorly allowing the Clippers to run. Spurs have to make shots.
Oh can I just say Baynes
got ktfo by barnes and posterized by griffin not once but twice
Pop is nervous aF.
did you see him sit beside Leonard in the fourth for like two minutes..he was way out of the coaching seat.
It doesn't have to be just Pop, I think Assistants play a major role..we already know Boylen is ty though.
Making fun of the only player besides Duncan and Kawhi who played with some heart.
Yeah lol baynes while Splitter isinjured
Yeah they got plenty of good looks. How bout the great looks they missed from the ft line. We won't shoot 36% again.
You can add Splitter in the mix.....Spurs need splitter out there but by the looks of it Splitter ain't 100%
This has been the story all year against the Clips. Spurs have shot sub-40% in 4 out of 5 games against them this year. Enrique can get his but it generally doesn't end well for the Spurs. Leonard also isn't capable of dominating this team like he should for whatever reason.
It would be interesting to see what Pop does with Clippers hard hedges on the pick and roll, Doc Rivers definitely had Pop's number in game 1, if they can make the Clippers pay by scoring at the basket (our bigs have to finish those shots in the paint, it's like Ibaka all over again, they scared of Jordan's shotblocking ability) they have a shot at turning the series around
I agree with you....the refs are not really to blame.
BUT....the 2nd early foul on Kawhi (the CPflop) was pivotal.
He feel down cause he had both hands on the ball and Griffins 2nd dunk he moved baynes had out of the way. Traveled on both dunks.Oh can I just say Baynes

the word refs should be banned when discussing game 1 of SAS-LAC tbh, the game overall was refereed very fairly IMO, i cant even remember one bad call off the top of my head
I agree.
and btw is this season the closest CP3 has looked like prime NOH Chris Paul? This series is gonna be so tough, fingers cross the spurs respond tbh
Posts like this usually come with an explanation of what they did and how they can do it again. This post is frankly. You are going to cry and panic already?
another random comment: The most disappointing thing if the spurs lose this series would be hearing Reggie Miller calling that elimination game
Id take it over the other threads on ST tbh
Yes, that changed the game. Blake or Paul get called for that offensive foul and they'd scream at the refs for 10 seconds and no T gets issued.
Jon Barry would be worseanother random comment: The most disappointing thing if the spurs lose this series would be hearing Reggie Miller calling that elimination game
Imo the miller-harlan combo is the worst in the 1st round of the POs. I used to like Harlan but nowadays he sounds forced. In the regular season he's even worse. And Reggie Miller is just simply horrible
Some of Miller's comments
1) "Those are Green's first points.....since his first points earlier" umm huh?
2) "That is a lightweight taking down a super heavyweight!"
*refs look at replay to see if foul should be issued*
"Oh come on, nothing happened there!"
