Game Blog: Spurs vs Jazz -- Game 3 (May 5, 9 PM CST, FSSW/TNT)

[Libri]

BS call

[SpursFaninMS]

Maybe I missed Bonner's foul but all I saw was Favors with his arm extended pushing off Bonner.

[$pursDynasty]

Ginger with 3 fouls already?

[Brazil]

neal wtf with it

[bklynspursfan]

Neal open your eyes. Had a man wide open in the corner

[Spurs Brazil]

good 1st quarter. Now it's time for the bench go for the kill

[$pursDynasty]

Utah was hitting everything, and yet we still are up by two, I'll take it

[Texas_Ranger]

Neal never passes to Jax

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Should at least get a shot off there.

Need more from ginobili, his first turnover was a five point swing

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner with 3 fouls.

[jestersmash]

We should have 2 more points due to the missed goaltend earlier in the game.

Favors should have 2 less free throw attempts, but thankfully he didn't make either of them so I guess it's a moot point other than Bonner having 3 personal fouls vs. 2.

[loveforthegame]

Not a bad 1st quarter all things considered.

[Brazil]

going to be a good game

[timvp]

Neal is probably the most underrated cog in this Spurs engine. Those threes he can create himself really add up over the course of a series, tbh.

... but, of course, he missed about 4 open players on that last drive to the basket.

[NASpurs]

Neal never passes to Jax

I've noticed that too

I think I've seen Jack frustrated with Neal sometimes.

[Wild Cobra Kai]

Hayward, Jefferson, and Millsap played almost the entire first quarter. Harris got a 1.5 minute rest.

[timtonymanu]

Not too bad of a 1st quarter.

It's good that Devin Harris finally decided to show up after being irrelevant in the first two games.

[naico]

Neal open your eyes. Had a man wide open in the corner

and next to him

[Spurs Brazil]

Jazz with 10FTA already. Need to do a better job

[timtonymanu]

Choo-choo is ing dog . I don't care if he makes 100 3's, his court vision is terrible, he's a terrible ballhander and a turnover machine, and plays absolutely zero defense. Hope he's traded with Blair in the offseason for someone decently well rounded.

Shut up, got.

U mean the refs ?

[kjhip1]

Oh well we survived their initial surge. Spurs will now regain control. We'll be up by at least 8-10 points by the half. Book it!

[bklynspursfan]

Well I'm glad they didn't jump out on us early. Up to the 2nd unit to give us a nice 6-8 point lead cushion now

[timvp]

Pop should put Bonner back in. It's not like he's at a risk to foul out. And if he does, who really cares, tbh?

[jestersmash]

1 quarter down and Utah having just a 2 "bad call" advantage (missed goaltend, Bonner foul) isn't bad.

We're bound to get a bad call or 2 in our favor in the 2nd or 3rd quarters to help mitigate that slightly. If the refs call the game fairly the rest of the way, I'll be fine with it.
