the reffing especially on Kawhi doesn't bode well for the games in Oklahoma..better take 2-0 lead there..
League pass died ?

Man, at least put Slowmo in to check Durant so you can swing LDN onto Westbrook.
If we somehow clean up transition D, then we have some chance. Otherwise, this will get ugly
Thunder took Spurs best shot and are ting all over them now. Thunder win this game going away.
No. We have closed the gap, and Kawhi doesn't need to pick up his third foul before the half.
No Kawhi to defend. I bet the green slurpers spin that .![]()
Kawhi has 2 fouls people...
Manu is getting stuck by the screen anyways... it's the help at the rim that needs to get better... difficult when Bobo is out there though
38 year-old Manu can't possibly guard Westbrook, there's no way to step up and win that matchup. I don't get Pop's lineup at all here.
Folks...we are winning this . Book it.
Did they totally forget the under 6 timeout? Or were there no stoppages?
I can't believe how incredible Ibaka is shooting these playoffs. He's like 12-20 from 3 and barely missed from mid-range. He's been on fire.
Better idea than Manu!
The trade-off is that Kawhi is sure of having 4 fouls to burn in the second half. This is a good outcome for this half.
KL has 2 fouls...saving him for 2nd half. After Pop benched 80% of the 1st unit a few minutes into the game (he overreacted to missed layups), we haven't seen much Green and KL guarding KD & Westbrook. That is the main difference in our D. Pop's rotations have not been good.
WTF was that? Someone shoot...
Not a good finish to the quarter, but the end result is a five point lead cut. I'll take it.
I agree tbh
Only down 3. Calm down, cliff jumping gots.
OKC if ed:
-Got out to a quick start
-WestBrick is having his way w/ Kawhi essentially not checking him for the majority of the game
-Danny/Tim can't hit a shot & Kawhi hasn't gotten going yet
-Adams is dominating
-Durant is having an efficient game
.....but yet can't get separating
Just awful defense...awful. It's a layup line out there for OKC
Very poor end to the first half, Spurs have to pick up the defense, Kanter is hurting us.
Still considering we were down 13 at one point, I'll take it.
you gotta be ok with this though...we took their best shot at the start and it's a game now... gotta clamp down on D tho
spurs inside defense is pathetic
