    Tbh I'll roll with Parker over Mills any day of the week. Parker was actually playing decent tonight and Pop decides to roll with Chuck Mills.
    Pass first Parker is eons better than Mills. I wonder how things would look if we had CoJo manning Westbrook one on one, which he's capable.

    Point blank, if the Spurs can't win a game or two in OKC when they've looked like the superior team....then they have no chance of upsetting the Warriors.

    Woulda been nice to be up 2-0, but the team has an opportunity to find out if they're championship material.
    Well said. Spurs in 5 can still happen, tbh. The team just needs to do work.

    what a re ed pass by Danny, btw.
    Adams was in the passing lane & it's Danny, at least he didn't try to dribble & bounce it off his feet.

    (Manu was behind him by the time he was in a throwing motion so that wasn't an option, give Danny coming up w/ the loose ball)

    I would like to see the angle - if Manu leaned over the line.
    Manu did step on the line before he got elbowed.

    That awful starting-fourth lineup was the death knell for this game. I was more surprised the Spurs came close to turning it around than I was that a ref blew a final call.
    Yeah. A lot of blame to go around on this. Pop, Timmy, Patty, and West were terrible. Green, Tony, Manu, and Kawhi had good moments and bad moments. Only LMA was on tonight.

    And yet the Thunder only won by 1. We should be OK in this series.

    I really did not understand Pop's rotations when the next game is not until Friday.
    It's a similar re ed/scratch your head lineup Pop used to start the 4th quarter tonight as he did in game 6 2013. The only difference is that the team gets 4 days rest after tonight. I have no idea what he's doing.

    The 2014 Finals was 1-1 & the Spurs won Gm 1 b/c of the AC. (Worriers were also down 2-1 to the Cavs)

    Yes, but guys get away with that all the time because refs eyes are on the ball and not the feet. Speaking of which, did Waiters push off with elbow or ball (which the refs eyes are glued to!)

    I'm still a Patty fan, but seriously. Chinook and RD2191 called it. CoJo is the much better player at this point.

    Yep. Maybe their role players can perform better at home. But the Thunder got production out of all the players that can put them at their peak. The Spurs weren't even close and still were in good position to win. This series may be more compe ive and closer than we want, but I still like the Spurs chances.

    Among many other things, it looked like LMA got fouled on that last play too.
    Unfortunately, as per usual, The Spurs crappy play, questionable coaching decisions, etc allow people to believe that it is plausible that one team deserved 14 free throws while the other deserved zero - on their home court. And, that there were no infractions on the final play. I guess the NBA COULD BE legit. It's plausible

    Poor pass by Green to Mills after the turnover, poor decision by Mills to pass to Gino, poor decision by Gino to pass back to Mills. Just awful. That was the loss, not the no-call. Its easy to say they should have called timeout but a bucket probably wins the game and they ed up a Golden Opportunity.
    Pop could have called a timeout if he didn't like what he saw but he usually doesn't like calling timeout. (Could have drawn a play for LMA)

    Not sure if sarcasm but it it is what it is. We had a golden opportunity there at the end and we blew it. Hopefully all of our starters bring it in game 3.

    No sarcasm. I hadn't seen it. Saying Kawhi had a bad game (me) isn't the same as idiots blaming him for the loss.

    He looked so confident and aggressive coming out for Game 1. It was his blitz that really put OKC back on their heels. I thought it meant that he was taking over for the rest of the playoffs. I still wonder if he was under the weather, and they just aren't saying anything.

    Yeah, I want to be critical of the Spurs... I was throughout the entire game. But something that happens like that in a magnitude like that (semifinal playoff series between two giants) just shouldn't happen. Sometimes role players don't play as well which happened tonight. Sometimes the ball bounces a certain way.


    What happened on that inbounds was bull . That should have been a T free throw and the ball.


    it though.

    and now I'm really mad at that wide open lane TP had right to the basket and decided to bring it back out again....could have used the rim to protect ball from Ibaka
    Tony has PTSD when it comes to Ibaka

    Pretty much this.
    Yup. We knew they wouldn't win 4-0. OKC did well to rebound from getting murdered in Game 1. Now it's the Spurs' chance to do the same. Prove they deserve to be a 67 win team.

    I'm less concerned about the Spurs' chances in this series than I am the implications that it being a close one means we don't stand a chance when we face the Dubbs.

    I highly doubt Waiters knew that on the inbounds, and I highly doubt the ref saw it. That was an egregious non-call.
