I don’t know if the Thunder is going to be able to stop the Spurs. Certainly doesn’t seem so if the last five quarters are any indication. San Antonio has scored 39, 28, 27, 37 and 28 points. The Spurs have made 59 of 98 shots, 60.2 percent, over those 60 minutes. To win a game, much less...

Nuggets from my notebook from Tuesday's Game 2 loss at San Antonio. As the saying goes, everything that could go wrong did go wrong. Early, often and all night for the Oklahoma City Thunder. Even when the Thunder stormed back from a 22-point deficit and pulled within six, OKC was plagued by a...

SAN ANTONIO — Lost in the Scott Brooks-Serge Ibaka storyline from Game 1 is an old problem the Oklahoma City Thunder saw rear its ugly head Sunday night and lead to offensive struggles that were just as significant as the defensive breakdowns. Kevin Durant couldn’t get open. Spurs guard...

The Spurs turned nasty just in the nick of time. Now it’s the Thunder’s turn. Game 1 of the NBA’s Western Conference Finals went San Antonio’s way Sunday night. The Spurs won 101-98 after coach Gregg Popovich’s “I want some nasty” speech captured his team’s attention and his...

SEEKING A SPLIT After blowing a nine-point, fourth-quarter lead Sunday, the Thunder will try to salvage a split in the first two games of the Western Conference Finals in Game 2 on Tuesday. If the Thunder can win Tuesday it will snatch home-court advantage from the Spurs, with Games 3 and 4...

In Game 1 of the Thunder-Spurs series, Manu Ginobili scored 26 points on 9-of-14 shooting. He spent 23 minutes and 21 seconds on the court with Thunder defensive whiz Thabo Sefolosha. Which means Ginobili spent 10:42 on the court without Sefolosha. Against Thabo, Ginobili scored 13 points in...

Nuggets from my notebook from Sunday's Game 1 loss at San Antonio. The story of this game was the fourth quarter. The Thunder couldn't get a stop and couldn't make a shot. The Spurs, on the other hand, sizzled. San Antonio got just about whatever it wanted with relative ease to storm back to...

The Spurs popped the Thunder 101-98 Sunday night in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, a game not as close as the score indicates, even though the Thunder led by nine with 111/2 minutes left. And here’s the sobering fact for the Thunder: these Baby Boomers, despite performances that...
