Spurs begin 4-game West Coast Swing

The City of Angels awaits the San Antonio Spurs and tonight they will face Blake Griffin and his Los Angeles Clippers at Staples Center.  The Spurs, off to an uncharacteristic bad start at 2-3 face a Clippers franchise that has been on the rise the past three seasons.   The Clippers are 4-2 thus far into the early part of the schedule.  They will finish out the week against the Lakers, Warriors and Kings.

Tonight, the Spurs will be without Tiago Splitter (calf), Marco Belenili (groin) and Patty Mills (shoulder).  The Clippers should be at full strength.

Plenty of great seats and affordable tickets still remain so be sure to get yours now and cheer on the Defending NBA Champions.

Spurs look to go to 11-1 tonight

The San Antonio Spurs go into Memphis tonight looking to extend their four game winning streak against the Grizzlies.

The Grizz are coming off their own little winning streak having defeated two top team in the LA CLippers and the Golden State Warriors during a four game road trip.  The team is looking to keep the streak going at home.

“New coach, new offense … we just have to get used to it,” point guard Mike Conley said after Wednesday’s 88-81 overtime win over the Warriors. “Now we’ve been able to figure it out.”

“They’re playing great basketball, so they will be a great test for us,” Parker said of the Grizzlies following the Spurs’ 104-93 win over Boston on Wednesday.

Spurs/Warriors Round Two

The San Antonio Spurs survived the Golden State Warriors in an exhausting Game 1 of the Western Conference Semi-finals in San Antonio and now look forward to what game two has in store.  There is one big thing they would like to work on.

“We’d like to figure out how to hold (Stephen) Curry under 40 (points),” head coach Gregg Popovich said. “I have like 10 phone calls out to people asking for suggestions. He’s unbelievable.”

What Curry did was no small feat against a defensive minded Spurs team;  44 points (18-35 from the field and 6-14 from the 3-point line), 11 assists, four rebounds and two steals while playing nearly the entire game (57:56).

Warriors Head Coach Mark Jackson put his team’s chances this way:

“All we do is concentrate on the facts,” Jackson said. “And the facts are, we were the better basketball team for the most part of that game. We did some things we have to do better. But you have to leave that game feeling good about where we are.”
