National TV schedule is set before the season and nobody expected the Spurs to be this good.  It's a shame though, this is a great game so far.

Nice finish to the quarter, not counting the buzzer-beater. Momentum is going our way but it's gonna be hard to finish this team.

This is a gorgeous game so far - both teams playing possession ball, getting back on D, but they're executing so well that both are struggling to get stops. 

Spurs are currently at 51% and C's at 59 despite pretty good D.  Both teams have assisted on over half their FGs with the C's at over 75%.  Very well-played game.  However this shakes out this is a good one.

Yeah, I wish I was at this one.  Other than the first Miami game, I'd say this one is the game of the season.

I'll state the obvious again: a win without KG here would be very, very impressive.  Imagine what would happen WITH him.

It is really strange that ESPN has no 8:00 game at all.  Not sure why they switched the scheduling up like that.

Jermaine hasn't been very productive but he's been solid tonight.  Like his improvement over the last few games.
