Last year it was within a 300 mile radius of SA. It'll probably be the same this year. Before anyone in Texas purchases league pass, check out the blackout policy.

We're the luckiest team on the draft - from DRob to TD to TP to Manu and now De-Juan, the ONE! He's the real deal and he's gonna rip that ball off the boards! RAWR!! Blair is the man, the One!

I was at the game and thought he looked decent. He just needs to control his body on defense but he also didn't get much leeway from the refs. He looked better as a help defender than one-on-one in the post. As for Blair... WOW! Don’t be so hard on Ian. I was at the game and thought he looked decent.

I don't care if this is the pre-season against an undermanned, undersized front line, that is absolutely sick. We already knew it, but this is just further confirmation that this guy is an absolute bear on the boards. His per minute rebounding statistics are going to be off the charts.

I'm not too fussed about the loss. I'm happy Ginobili played, Bonner did well statistically but Blair was a beast. 19 rebound? Thats great. In 22 minutes? That's amazing. Considering the veterans from that Rockets system played more minutes against our 2nd unit I'm happy with the scoreline. A very poor game for Ian. I’m not too fussed about the loss.

Pre-Season or not, anyone who can be on the court with NBA players and pull down almost a rebound EVERY minute (19 in 22 mins) is doing something right...Damn I'm excited.

That was a bad bad game for him. After listening to the commentary, I really doubt that Spurs will pick up the team option on Mahinmi for next season. That was a bad bad game for him.

The big stories so far (since I've turned it on) are how good Blair and Hairston are playing. Blair has obviously been incredible, and Hairston is simply playing like he belongs on an NBA squad. All of our other role players... hit or miss. Spurs are going to lose this one. The big stories so far (since I’ve turned it on) are how good Blair and Hairston are playing.

When he's in, they're 1000% more active; without him, they're just kind of running up and down the court. Spurs look completely different with Blair in there vs. when he’s not.
