The Spurs are being led by Leonard's 17 ppg.
We are going to work hard to control him.
Ellis with a fast start to help us get a 13-11 lead as the Spurs call their first time out.
8 minutes left in the half: Bellineli hits a 3 to give them their first lead. Our guys are exhausted. I need to lighten up the practices a bit and also go deep into our bench this game. McDaniels, Grant, and Sims in for their first extended action...
Our shooting goes ice cold until Deng hits a jumper. Down 34-28.
Our offense falls apart and their 3 point shooters are making shots. Down 43-30 as we call timeout with 2 minutes left in the half.
A long drought until Augmon greats a breakaway dunk and the foul. Down 45-33.
At halftime, we are down 45-33.
Belinelli with 14 points to lead all scorers. He is torching Ellis (and Watson.)
The Spurs are picking us apart. Down 56-39 with 6 minutes to go in the 3rd. Their defense is stifling.
Grant with a steal and tremendous breakaway dunk that gets the crowd fired up. Down 60-47 with 3 minutes to go in the 3rd.
Down 64-51 at the end of 3. Ellis and Augmon are our leading scorers.
Bellinelli killing us from the arc. We are down 73-54 with 8 minutes to go.
4 minutes left: We close the gap to 12. Down 81-69 as MCW with a few nice plays.
We close it within 8 before Duncan gets put back to make it 85-75.
We lose the game 87-79.
