Jeff McDonald

Grizzlies are playing pretty hard, for a team that walked to the arena this morning, then played extra 48 minutes before tip. So, not very.

Jeff McDonald

"Thank goodness, Tim Duncan in for Matt Bonner." -- Z-Bo, probably.

Jeff McDonald

Fans behind me insist on telling Marc Gasol "you're the best brother" after every timeout. I mean, how's he supposed to feel about that?

Mike Monroe

Raise your hand if you thought Spurs would have 14-6 RB advantage about now ... not so fast, #RealCoachPop

Jeff McDonald

I'm assuming Memphis will get some things together a make a game of this eventually. Right?

Jeff McDonald

The Red Rodman, out-muscling Z-Bo.

Jeff McDonald

And here's Parker.

Jeff McDonald

It's a mostly starting Memphis unit against Spurs' subs. We'll see how long this keeps up.

Jeff McDonald

Joseph with offensive tap-ins now. Spurs are playing harder in addition to better.

Jeff McDonald

Pop has often called big first-half leads his worst nightmare. He might as well be coaching in his underwear right now.

Jeff McDonald

Grizzlies have been pretty good this season mounting comebacks. But not all that good at scoring. Interested to see how this plays out.

Jeff McDonald

Hard to imagine how that quarter could have gone better for the Spurs'. Lead up to 31-14.

Mike Monroe

Not sure why @Manu Ginobili gets to shoot 3 FTs but he made 2 of 3 #balldontlie

Jeff McDonald

Dumb foul by Arthur, even if it wasn't a foul at all and no way in the act of shooting.

Jeff McDonald

And Matt Bonner is re-enacting the 3-point shootout against them. Wiiiiide open.

Jeff McDonald

Memphis, we'll remind, was second in the league in the regular season at defending the 3-point line.

Jeff McDonald

Gary Neal gets, I think, the first block-charge of his career. They should stop the game and give him the ball.

Mike Monroe

Juuuust a little outside for @Manu Ginobili

Mike Monroe

double-figure lead allows Pop to sub out Duncan with 3 min. left in 1st; vs. Dubs he was going full 1st quarter

Mike Monroe

first 'run' of game for Griz, back to back baskets

Mike Monroe

There were entire quarters in Spurs-Griz 2011 series when Spurs didn't score 18; they've got 18 with 6:27 left in 1st today

Jeff McDonald

Spurs open 7 of 8. If they can keep up this percentage, they can probably win the series.

Jeff McDonald

Spurs up 12 points midway through 1Q. You know Pop hates that.

Jeff McDonald

7:21 left in the 1Q, Spurs finally go a possession without scoring.

Mike Monroe

Tim Duncan with a block-steal to set up fast break resulting in 2 FTs for @Tony Parker

Jeff McDonald

Spurs have gotten two open/semi-open 3-point looks in first three possessions. Going to be key in the series.

Notebook: Little guy Conley could be key to "big man series," says @Mike Monroe expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

Scary thought for Spurs: Fifth Finals bid could come down Ginobili staying healthy and sharp, writes @Mike Monroe expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

This time, Parker approaches matchup with Conley with "appropriate fear," writes @Buck Harvey expressnews.com/sports/columni…

Back in WCF, facing familiar nemesis, Spurs seek atonement times two expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Great day. Oldest graduated from High school today. Blessed to be surrounded by so many family and friends.

DeJuan Blair

Seek respect, not attention!

DeJuan Blair

A lot of people couldn't handle what I've been through.

Jeff McDonald

Also, he spelled his last name "Stoudamire" then. And still does, probably.

Jeff McDonald

Doesn't feel like I've been on the beat long, but first MEM-SA game I covered, Damon Stoudemire was Grizz starting PG. Now they're in WCF.

Jeff McDonald

Unless I've missed something in my quick research, Memphis at 5th is lowest seed to make conference final since '99 Knicks at 8th.

Jeff McDonald

Haven't read everything, but haven't seen any legit, non-partisan source that actually picks Spurs to win this thing. Interesting ...

Jeff McDonald

Think Tim Duncan is Spur happiest with extra day rest between series? As @Mike Monroe writes, could be Kawhi Leonard expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

Duncan, Splitter ready to get down in the dirt with Memphis expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

After beating Warriors, Spurs now own a playoff series victory over every team in West but one: the Houston Rockets.

Mike Monroe

.@Buck Harvey on mistake Presti made trading for worthless Perkins expressnews.com/sports/columni…

Mike Monroe

3 days off after Game 2? Why emerging star Leonard can't wait expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Mike Finger

One notable prop: over/under on Ginobili's average WCF ppg is 12.5. I know which way I'd go on that one.

Mike Finger

Some odds from Bovada: Spurs tiny (10/13) favorites to win WCF, 5/1 to win title. Heat are huge (1/3) title faves.

Nando De Colo

En route pour... La Finale de Conférence Ouest contre Memphis pour l'anniversaire de @Tony Parker ;-) Happy Birthday TP !

Jeff McDonald

One thing about Grizz ... the Russ-less OKC team they choked out in Round 2 was limited & one-dimensional. Little fool's gold there.

Tony Parker

Big Win last night...SPURS fan u are the best!!!! now I can enjoy my bday going to be a nice day off!!!! fb.me/23GxM85If

Manu Ginobili

Happy birthday to @Tony Parker & @Pablo Prigioni. Great teammates, friends and 2 of the best PGs in the game!

Jeff McDonald

In this notebook, @Mike Monroe details a clutch finish to a horrible night for Tony Parker expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

Why Tim Duncan sat at the end of Game 6 -- he will need the rest, writes @Buck Harvey expressnews.com/sports/columni…

Manu Ginobili

Hoy cumplen años @Pablo Prigioni y @Tony Parker.Excelentes compañeros de equipo, amigos y dos de los mejores bases del mundo! Salud!

Jeff McDonald

The "while you were sleeping" links dump: Back in the WCF finals, Tim Duncan senses own hoops mortality. expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

That was not directed at anyone in particular. Just a general warning. Saw some of it in the Golden State series already.

Jeff McDonald

Fair warning: If you're one of those insecure fans who believes saying something nice about opponent = "hating" on Spurs, just unfollow now.

Jeff McDonald

Thumbnail of WCF matchup: Grizz play great defense, so they'll be in every game; Grizz can't shoot, so Spurs will be in every game. Fair?

Jeff McDonald

The LuAnn Platter. That's what they call the special at Luby's. Should have remembered: There's a King of the Hill character named after it.

Mike Monroe

Duncan tells @JmcDonald_SAEN 'this run is speal' expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Mike Finger

How old is the Axtell story? E-N called me on spring break to help cover it. And I couldn't get email at the folks' house.

Mike Finger

Notable spring/summer Texas graduates: Vince Young, Case McCoy, Austin "169 pitches" Wood, and ... Luke Axtell.

Jeff McDonald

Tony Parker made more 3-point shots than 2-point shots last night. No way that's happened before.

DeJuan Blair

We have the best fans its 5:00 in the Am and they are at the airport screaming their lungs out! I love y'all fans thanks! #gospursgo

DeJuan Blair

Unless you've lived my life... you can't judge me.

DeJuan Blair

Why stress over something you can't change!!

Jeff McDonald

Game 1 of Spurs-Grizzlies series is 2:30 on Sunday. All the rest of the games tip off at 8.

Jeff McDonald

Tiago Splitter, on the matchup vs. Z-Bo: "It's non-stop fighting. ... He's a warrior." Although, not a Warrior.

Jeff McDonald

Parker's rough night ends with strong finish, writes @Mike Monroe in this Game 6 notebook. expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

Late night reading: Spurs make closing argument against Warriors. expressnews.com/sports/spurs/a…

Jeff McDonald

Long, late flight back + early game SUN not optimal. Recalls 2006, when Spurs had to fly back from Sacramento to start Dallas series.

Jeff McDonald

Spurs probably better equipped to handle Grizzlies than in 2011. Bigger now, and healthier.

Jeff McDonald

Not saying he'll miss games or anything. Just bears watching.

Mike Monroe

All my media pals are going to have to wait a while for my post-Spurs season BBQ at The Taterdome #brisketandlinksandturkeyOhMy

Jeff McDonald

The knee has been bothering Leonard all year. Affects him some nights more than others.

Jeff McDonald

Leonard and Doc Schmidt conferring at his locker when the doors opened postgame.

Jeff McDonald

Storyline for next round: Leonard's knee. It's bothering him and mild cause for concern.

Manu Ginobili

De todos modos, lo más importante del día fue el cumpleaños de estas dos preciosuras! 3 añitos ya! http://t.co/N40EQF77lf

Manu Ginobili

Thrilled to be back in the conference finals! On Sunday we start against the Grizzlies. #GoSpursGo

Manu Ginobili

De nuevo a la final de conferencia! Pasaron los Warriors después de este duro 4a2. El domingo arrancamos vs Memphis. #Vamoslospibes (?)

Nando De Colo

Great team effort again tonight to win this serie vs. Golden State... We're moving to the Western Conference ;-) An other step ! "GoSpursGo"
