Well, the good news is that we wrap up our season series with the Spurs early this year. The bad news is we're playing the Spurs. Let's just hope not to get embarrased (like the Lakers did last game).

Go Suns!!!

Let's see if Booker can put together back to back good games, and make some shots before we are down by double digits.

Should be a good game. Dirk is old but still has something left in the tank. And I always love seeing what amazing plays Carlisle will come up with.

Mori, we are playing the Spurs. Do you always ignore Bone's titles?

^ I was making fun of myself. I did the opposite for the last game, so I intentionally did again. That's why I wrote "I keed" at the bottom. :-)

I believe that was Indy's attempt at a joke. :D

MC with a nice shuffle pass to Chandler for a dunk.

Looks like Watson is working on phasing out Len and Bender.

Len 7 minutes in the first half. I'm not sure if I wanted to re-sign him as an RFA anyway, but would it surprise anyone if he refused to sign here after the season?

It wouldn't surprise me. Coach definitely seems to have his favorites and on the court play doesn't seem to factor into it much at all.

I know he would be expensive but I think we would regret letting him go in a few years when we are getting out rebounded and wishing we had a decent center.

Are we looking to trade Chandler? I hope that's why him and Tucker are getting so many minutes, just showcasing them

Or a last ditch effort to get into the playoff race. If that's the case, here's to a nice 10 game losing streak to squash those thoughts.

Our defense is so lazy. So many of our guys cheat off of players on the perimeter. They don't cheat in far enough to actually help stop any drive but just far enough to give their man a wide open three. This happens constantly.

Chandler just watching Kawhi as he lays it up in front of him twice in a row.

We're playing a good game overall. Keeping it close against the spurs is about all we can ask for. Booker is playing well!

First game I've watched live in a while.. we do seem rather mediocre... some nice strokes from Bender at least this quarter

I suppose. They don't seem to be taking this one very seriously though. Feels more like an exhibition game.

Booker's 7th 30-point game of the season. 31 points with 9 minutes to go.

Looking pretty good out there in the fourth.
