They're scrapping for wins, so the easy game vs. POR is more important than IST. Of course, Saric, CoJo, and other vet min players probably would've loved the $500k payout.
I almost never criticize Kerr, but I just do not understand Chris Paul (and even Klay) on the floor in late game defensive situations. Makes no sense with Wiggins/Kuminga on the bench.
Genuinely unreal that CP3 has been in for defense the entire time. Can't affect Osman's three because he's too small, can't get the rebound because he's too small.

Steph had a great chance to fix his season-long shitty plus-minus, and blows it by vomiting up a zillion turnovers … like he’s done all season.
Good thing he can still shoot a little.
So win over Sac doesn't mean that we avoid wildcard?
It does if Minn loses to OKC.
Only if we beat them by more than they beat Minnesota.
Unless they blow em out. Sac has a +29 point diff I think?
Dubs needs to win by 13 I think
Well, the Dubs have to win vs. Sac by 25 points. LOL. good luck with that.
Only by 13, right? Our positive point differential gives them a negative point diff.
Oh, good point. You're right.
More likely is a score the other way around
We’re 2-0 against Sac this year, and Draymond’s back. Think a win is fairly likely.
Yay! Win.
Well, we won, but holy shit. That win was ugly AF.
A win is a win is a win.
Well, if you care about IST, shrinking the lead really hurt

This right here
Can we find a reason to sit out Draymond and Steph for the rest of the year? They don't deserve to be burdened with this team.
Calm down. We have lots of quality players and we’ll root for them even if they never get it together
Dray may find a way to miss a lot of games…
If you want to waste a year of whatever they have left of their prime, sure
Part of the reason we’re struggling right now is because Draymond is a hot headed idiot. And I like Draymond!
And he was a hot-headed idiot with the extremely misguided notion of defending a mid player, therefore proving my earlier point.
Moody needs to be out there
Klay clutch FTs yay
I almost never criticize Kerr, but I just do not understand Chris Paul (and even Klay) on the floor in late game defensive situations. Makes no sense with Wiggins/Kuminga on the bench.
I'm guessing part of it is getting good FT shooters in floor
In for free throw shooting (talking about the very end game not before)
I get that but plenty of chances to go offense defense. And it's been a recurring issue.
Yup
Come on! Is Spurs a good off reb team?
Genuinely unreal that CP3 has been in for defense the entire time. Can't affect Osman's three because he's too small, can't get the rebound because he's too small.
It's ego management but playing with serious fire because they need this W
I think they'll have a players meeting if they lose this one, judging from what y'all have been writing
They'll squeak by but if this was any team other than the worst team in the conference it would have been a shattering L
I know what is on game threads stays in game threads… but some of y’all are something else
Foul on 2 better than a 3
AND THATS WHY YUSSSSSS
Spurs missed a shot, but they get the rebound
