All right, let’s go pick up the energy and the execution. Come on.

 

[1kangaroo]

We taken some really bad shots not making the extra passes

 

[Kick-Stand]

Really sick of seeing Steph get no calls at the rim

 

[CGD]

Wtf, I stepped away for a minute…

 

[O_V]

Akshually he won a championship in college

Yep, and he was really good, but his career as a pro was as a loser.

 

[Splits]

Yeah, this is just the blazers, against a proper offensive team we’d be losing.

Way too many open 3’s for portland

tbh these were both contested 3s

Didn't the old Spurs have a bad habit of dropping the first playoff game, let's not keep that tradition going.

 

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Mitch must be the most boring fucking halftime coach in the league. This team always comes out like they just got lectured about social justice or quantum physics at half.

 

[Robz4000]

The tradition remains lol really wonder what goes on in the locker room at half

At this point its 100% coaching tbh.

It would require an assault for him to get a whistle against Avdija.

 

[wEmBoY]

Castle and harper shitting the bed so far

That old spurs was a vet squad though. Would rather not have to deal with that tbh

Me too. But this is the playoffs, so he needs to be more decisive. I'm really not worried. This is just him feeling out the process.

“Bigger than basketball”

Only way it might change is if Mitch picks up a T for it. Even then it might not matter. Refs doing all they can for the Guests.

If anyone is giving a lecture on quantum physics it would be Victor lol

 

[poopbox]

Against teams that play really good defense Champ is useless.

 

[onechance87]

[ginobilized]

Gotta wake the fuck up

Just the ones that won championships.

Or lost in the first round.

 

[wEmBoY]

Scoot killing us lmao

 

[timtonymanu]

Portland is one of those teams that never stop fighting. We're a better team but likely these games will remain close throughout.

Thanks, Pop. That's really stupid. How's he supposed to learn? It's his first playoff experience.
