Blizz-am! Just stoppin to say Go Spurs Go! Won’t be in the thread tonight, but know I’ll be here in spirit! Destroy all who dare use the subject line for me and somebody ruffle CapHill’s feathers.
I leave you with my all-time favorite song:

GO SPURS GO!!!!!!! Probably be popping in and out of the game thread tonight, but here’s hoping we get back on track tonight?
By the way, can we still call them the NOOCH? My favorite nickname for a team, ever.

I hope my dad doesnt steal the computer from me so I can watch the game. Am I a bad son If I put some pills on his drink?

"Kevin Garnett once described defending Tim Duncan as "trying to guard a tree"
Hi, everyone. I have no idea what to expect tonight. True to Spurs fashion of the last few years, our guys are keeping me in suspense when we face teams we should whip. Here’s hoping for the best!

I’m just happy Manu is resting. Some of these young guys may not have had the PT otherwise.

All right now, let’s get another win on the road tonight, boys.

Leonard on Bellinelli is an interesting match up. They like to run Belli off screens and Kawhi struggles guarding that type of player.

They are either making contested outside shots or Okafor is making ridiculous fades over Tim. What do you want them to take? They’re just making everything.
