Two up. It's fun winning by a large margin.

I don't get to experience this very often.

GOOOOOOO SPURS

WOW! They blew them out. They keep surprising me. Aren't Duncan & Ginobili eligible for Social Security? Looks like it's going to be a showdown with the Heat.

I can relax and enjoy the game when they are like last night. Otherwise, I'm a nervous wreck (coaching is hard work for me). As my granddaughter used to say "Go Purrs Go."

I had to google Duncan & Ginobili, brewhaha. 38 and 36. I didn't think they were that old. Hope they make it thru the playoffs. LOL

LOL - that's cute ivey. Go Purrs Go. First words I teach my grands are "GOOO COWBOYS" My youngest granddaughter is saying "GOOOO WOWBOYS" I can only hope they will WOW me.

Coach Pop refers to them as "old men." To me, they seem like boys. It seems like yesterday when they joined the Spurs, but it has been a long time for them. Both good guys.

They may be ready for social security BUT both are playing like youngsters.....whats the saying .... if people in their 60's are now the new 40....then people in their 30's are like people in their teens....

Hi Ivey...

Manu/Timmy stay focused on basketball and still do a good job---yes it seems like only yesterday when that ping pong ball bounced our way and we got Timmy, and Manu was new to the team....

I'm and cat and Spurs fan so GO PURRS GO!!!

Me too Ivey even when the Spurs are ahead I'm STILL nervous....

Spurs are all good guys!

Hey Yellowrose....Thanks for starting this thread....Well the Spurs surprised the heck out of me with their margin of victory.....But now Serge Ibaka could be back (the Spurs players predicted this)....and it could be a different ball game with his return.....The Spurs are a good road team and I hope they come out focused and continue to play well---defend, move the ball well, and take good shots....GO SPURS GO!

Sloppy play all around......Pop needs to make adjustments with Ibaka back! But you know OKC had to win at least one game at home .....my Spurs have some work to do! GO SPURS GO!

Oh, last night was bad. I kept flipping back and forth to the Memorial Day Concert on pbs. I had already seen it, but it was good.

My fault. I went to see Godzilla rather than watching the game. Guess the Spurs needed me. Saw the highlights, and looks like this Ibaka fellow could be a problem.

GOOOO SPURS

Okay yellowrose----it's all YOUR fault!!!!

Yep Ibaka IS a problem

Here are some quotes that described it all---

The Spurs were hilariously ineffective defensively, hysterically inept rebounding and farcical in the pursuit of loose balls. The Spurs looked to be lifeless as much as helpless, seemingly disinterested as much as discombobulated.

I was very disappointed that we didn’t come out with more of a foot-on-the-neck sort of attitude,” Popovich said. “They killed us on the boards, they beat us on 50/50 balls, and that’s very disappointing to me. That’s not the way you approach a game.”

It shockingly bordered on unprofessional from a Spurs team that usually plays like it’s wearing a crisp white shirt and tie.

As you can see you didn't miss much----Try try again---GO SPURS GO!

O/T so how did you like Godzilla---I thought it should've involved a bit more Godzilla, but I liked the way he looked---and of course everyone in the theatre clapped when the big guy appeared and during the battle--fun popcorn summer movie---

Yep it was loud and clear......One thing I do like about Kevin Durant is that he's a Redskin fan, which means he has good taste in his choice of football teams......

May the best team win...

4OU2 - yes I do believe I hear thunder. Oh my, shut my mouth on how fun it is to win by a large margin. That comment came back to haunt me. Have the tides changed?? We'll see.

GOOOOO SPURS

I dont know what has happened to the Spurs I know Ibaka came back and energized their defense and team....but it seems that Tiago and Danny Green have disappeared...and Marco did well in the regular season and looks like he's afraid to shoot in the playoffs....Pop better tinker with the lineup or something!!!

GO SPURS GO!
