2015 NBA Playoffs

Watching that game... we are not ready for that level of physicality. This type of defense will absolutely kill our offense.

I think we can handle it. It's Exum who is not ready yet, but Gobert, Hayward, Burks--they'll all be gamers. I can't wait to see Burks in a setting like that get to the rim or pull up for a jumper.

Everyone on the floor has to be quick, everyone has to defend, everyone has to pass and everyone has to be able to shoot the ball. You look at the guys making plays for the Spurs, it's Diaw, Mills, Bellineli, etc.--just guys who know who they are and where they need to be.
 
The Spurs really are brilliantly coached. Paul and Blake are the two best players on the floor, but the Spurs take the punch and find a way to make big shots.

Rudy will probably get stripped every single time he touches the ball with the way Blake, DeAndre and the help defenders swipe at the ball. I don't even think Hayward is ready. We've had some hard times this season when teams played physically against us and none of those games were even close to the physicality by which this game was played. And it's not only about the times our players have the ball in their hands - the most important part is that we will get pushed and knocked off our spots and movement in offense. I don't think any of our PGs can handle effectively the high hedge the Clippers do on the PnR. I hope we get to the playoffs next year so we get some experience with this type of intensity for the following year when realistically we can expect to get some wins in the playoffs.
 
How good is Duncan?

At his age he's still taking guys like DA to school. 28 pts 11 rebounds and hit some keys shots.

I grew up hating the guy. But that hate has dissolved and now I can only sit back and admire the guy. He's so damn good. How the hell he's doing this at his age is beyond me.

Game 3 will be huge. A quick turnaround I'm sure the clippers will be looking to take back home court asap.

Also Parker's injury? It hurts them but at this point I might just roll with Mills and Joseph anyway. Parker wasn't giving them anything anyway.
 
Matt barnes sucks
 
I'm thrilled that the Spurs won last night. I want them to knock out the Clips in the first round then take of Houston in the 2nd.
 
I'll never understand some people on this website and on the radio.

Why do the haters want the Spurs to fail? Or to see "someone new?"

First of all, the Spurs aren't a bunch of D-bags like so many other championship teams. I've never seen a more humble player than Duncan. And does Kawhi ever even speak? It's not like you're dealing with d-bag players or a team with a history of cheating (like the Pats).

Secondly, why the Rockets or Clippers? The Clippers piss me off and the Rockets are tough to watch. Especially Harden who merely plays for fouls 99 percent of the time.

Thirdly, how can anyone not find the Spurs incredibly entertaining? Great defense, clutch shooting, and incredible ball movement.

The Spurs are my adopted team. I cheer for them every game other than when they play the Jazz. I just don't understand how any Jazz fan could want the Los Angeles Clippers to beat the San Antonio Spurs. I'll take humble team ball over a few punkass dunkers and a crybaby PG any day.

Also, I hate Matt Barnes.
