OKC up by 30 on Detroit in the 2nd quarter.
I never take the high road, but I tell other people to, that way there is more room for me on the low road.
The score in this game is too damn high

I have a little theory I have been thinking for a while now: The spurs defensive philosofy (Popovich’s) has always been protect the paint with Timmeh, guard the 3 point line at all costs and let the other team shoot a bunch of long 2 pointers.
That worked for years, but not only Tim has aged (and plays less minutes) I think that the NBA in general has become better at shooting those long 2’s. Teams are more offensive minded each year, and “defensive specialists” that cant shoot are becoming rarer each passing season. Tradutinal Big men are in a process of extctinction and are being replaced by guys who love to shoot long 2’s and can make them
"Kevin Garnett once described defending Tim Duncan as "trying to guard a tree"
interesting theory. be interesting to see if numbers back it up re: mid- and long-range 2 pointers (looking at percentage of shots taken from there, and accuracy, over the years).

Something I’ve been noticing these past few games. Once Tony and Tim go out and Green and Tiago come in, the defense immediately tightens up. Since when did our starters (minus Manu) become our liability?
