Manu has much massive testicles

Down 8, good enough after that start. Thunder made some tough shots; as long as Spurs don't keep missing easy shots, I think the Thunder will slow down offensively without their semi transition offense. Just got to watch out for offensive rebounding and I think the Spurs will get it much closer by half.

[Mugen]

Offense heating up. The Spurs just need to adjust to OKC running on every single rebound / inbounds.

Clean up the transition D and let Kawhi slow down Westbrook, and they should chip away at this lead.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Kawhi needs to sack up

[BillMc]

In the end, it could have been worse. Reel em in now.

[Holden_Caulfield]

West is such a defensive and rebounding liability

plus he cant hit his js

[024]

Ugh, you would think the Spurs would have anticipated the Thunder adjustments and make adjustments of their own.

Still, seems like a winnable game since the defensive effort is still there. Really need to make smarter decisions on offense though and limit the turnovers.

[Robz4000]

At least they're only down 8. Take smart shots, take care of the ball, and rebound; OKC can't score enough if those three things happen.

[DarrinS]

Just a bad start. We kickin dis ass. Believe

Spurs just pulling a '14 finals game 5 by letting OKC blow their load then crushing det ass

[hater]

this is worse than anything I could make up in my dreams

Not That Bad. Should b worse imo. oKC III Ng themselves with turnovers. If they don't lead by 15+ at halftime they are in trouble

[GSH]

OKC is ed. It looked like the Spurs might not score more than about 10 in that quarter. And as bad as it looked, the Spurs only gave up 3 more points than they did in the 3rd and 4th quarters last game. Westbrook will tire, and the Spurs will grind them down.

[Dex]

Manu in' Ginobili.

One of the oldest on the team, and the only guy who came looking like he wants to play tonight. Hopefully the rest of the team wakes up.

Respect.

[SupremeGuy]

We might need TP to stay on the bench of OKC keeps playing like this...

[DPG21920]

Disgusting, frustrating 1st Q Spur fans, but there was good in there (offensively). Have to value the ball, stop fouling and hit some damn shots.

Have a good 2nd and no one remembers this one. Pop can't afford to send messages here. He can't have DG/Kawhi yanked especially when KD/WB are always on the damn floor (at least one of them is at all times). They will play at least 40MPG so Pop has to find ways to keep a good rotation.

[SPURt]

Im amazed the Spurs broke 20 considering that horrible start. Those 6 OKC turnovers are gonna haunt the Thunder.

[BillMc]

Monobili

[Horry Hipcheck]

Am I the only one who thinks Spurs win easily?

Spurs will either keep within striking distance and never get over the hump, or they'll surge ahead a la Game 5 against Miami. I have a feeling it's one of those two.

[timtonymanu]

Survived that. OKC is desperate. If Wing Stop and Duncan can stop playing their worst ball, we should have this.

[ducks]

Manu is going off tonight

[davemaniscool]

Spurs will be up by half. Comically bad shooting in the first few minutes.

[BillMc]

LMA and Manu only ones to play well so far.

[SPURt]

Ginobili in 2014 finals game 5 mode

[Spurminator]

So many missed layups. That won't continue.
