Game Blog: Spurs vs. Thunder - Game 1

[Paranoid Pop]

Bottom line they defend the 3 well.

But the offense looks much better barring Kawhi passing a shot and turning it over.

[therealtruth]

Parker is playing way too passive. He's got to look to score the keep their defenders honest. They're only playing the pass right now and it's forcing DG and KL to try to shoot contested or make plays of the dribble.

[Budkin]

Come on Spurs nut the up!!!

[loveforthegame]

I guess the Spurs didn't learn anything at the half.

[Ice009]

Spurs need to go to the Money lineup.

Gotta go Splitter/Diaw, Duncan, Sjax, Manu, TP.

kawhi and Green just not doing it tonight.

[wut]

Disappointing. It's like the Spurs were not prepared.

I agree, how do we have a week off to look at these guys and we seemingly have no plays to go at them?

[BatManu20]

Role players shooting cold. Happens often in big games. They're not used to the big moment and don't play well. Our big names gotta step up. Parker and Duncan need to get it going or we're in deep .

[slick'81]

we will c what danny green has this series he can't wilt

[Kuestmaster]

Refs respecting more a kid that has done nothing like Durant than a ing legend like Duncan. Outrageous

[spurspokesman]

We look horrible.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Brooks doing his job. Brooks did more homework than Pop.

[spursfanincolorado]

Neal needs to be in and make a few dagger threes... Spurs playing like the Clippers

[MannyIsGod]

LOL @ Reggie Miller not being able to count. That was 3 steps.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

man the spurs are just fuking up right now

[DBMethos]

Spurs got some to figure out. Just hope that Okc doesn't get too far ahead in the meantime.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Green is choking like a . Bonner is useless. Those two need to sit.

Bring on Neal or Manu for Green.

I'd like to say try Grizz for Bonner, but Grizz can't space the floor and hasn't played in a month, so he'd probably be useless.

Unless we pull our heads out of our arses and stop turning it over, we'll lose this. Wouldn't surprise me as I figured we might lose game 1 due to rust, and because historically it's something Spurs teams do...

[100%duncan]

Green is just playing bad you s. He played 4 minutes in the first half. What did you expect?

[$pursDynasty]

everyone so scared of the Ibaka blocks they are giving up on penetration. He might get some blocks but he won't block them all!

[SpurPadre]

Green looks like a deer-in-headlights out there. At least he's showing some defensive effort out there.

[Budkin]

We've only scored a ing point this quarter

[therealtruth]

's just not falling...but in general Spurs are playing good D so far in the third. The shots will eventually start falling for them.

I agree the defense is pretty good. They need to stop giving the Thunder points of turnovers.

[NRHector]

if the Spurs need to lose this game so they can regroup than it lose it

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Duncan... really?

[100%duncan]

what the tim?

[ginobili fan]

Damnit Parker needs to be agressive...
I feel like I'm actually watching last year Memphis series...
