<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Spurs bring in their starters about 8 minutes in.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">To say the Spurs fell stagnant halfway through the quarter is an understatement. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">5 turnovers in the 4th quarter so far for the Spurs.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">The Spurs running their offense through Tim Duncan down the stretch.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Tony Parker with a clutch 3 with about 50 seconds remaining.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Stephen Jackson with a clutch defensive possession forces a shot up for the Hornets. Tim Duncan rebounds, gets fouled. Makes 2/2</span></li>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Starting the half are the starters. They start with a full court press which throws the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/nba/teams/new-orleans-hornets" class="sbn-auto-link">Hornets</a> off</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;"><a href="https://www.poundingtherock.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Spurs</a> D is starting to increase in intensity. They are pressing more, taking risks with stepping into the passing lanes. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">If you guessed <span>Kawhi Leonard</span> would come alive in the 3rd quarter, you were lying but also correct.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Kawhi stepping into passing lanes, leading fast breaks, making 3's.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">This game was turned around single handedly by Kawhi Leonard.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">First sight of <span>Patty Mills</span>, as well.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>Kawhi Leonard 16 points 5 steals</div>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Starting the quarter is Gary Neal, Danny Green, Stephen Jackson, Matt Bonner, Tiago Splitter</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">The Spurs have Stephen Jackson on Anthony Davis here. Interesting look.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Offense for the Spurs going stagnant. A lot of bricks off the rim.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">On the other hand, the Hornets getting whatever they want.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Spurs not playing any sort of pro-level defense. Hornets shooting 54% FG so far</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Spurs pick up their offensive game a little towards the last 3 minutes of the quarter.</span></li>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">First points of the season go to Tim Duncan from a Tony Parker pass in the pick and roll. Surprised?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Anthony Davis scores his first couple of shots as elbow jumpers.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Spurs offense is very up beat and active. Not too many preset plays being ran.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">A defensive lapse gets a wide open dunk from the weak-side for the Hornets. Pop immediately jumps up and calls timeout, chewing people out.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Stephen Jackson the first sub of the season -- enters in for Danny Green.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 9px;">Spurs allowed the Hornets to score 11 of the last 12 possessions, and paid for it. </span></li>
