Damian Lillard on his defensive focus: “When we’re able to play how we’ve played offensively where I don’t have as much pressure on me, it’s even easier for me to be locked in on that end.”

Eubanks scored 5 of his 9 points in the 4Q against his former team.
“Drew had a lot of energy,” Anfernee Simons said. “He was more hyped than everyone else. He had a different intensity, he was very emotional which helped us in that fourth quarter. That propelled us.” – 2:49 AM

Spurs missed Zach Collins tonight. Bassey has had some great moments in his early Spurs tenure but he’s still just kinda guessing out there, learning on the fly. Teams hardly get to practice during the season, which makes this a really difficult process. – 1:00 AM

The Spurs scored 31 points off the Blazers’ 17 turnovers.
That’s a new season in points off turnovers for SA.
1.82 points per turnover tonight (new season high) – 12:49 AM

The Spurs finished with 34 assists on 44 makes tonight.
It’s their 7th game of the season with 30+ assists. – 12:48 AM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
The Spurs scored a new season high 66 paint points tonight and made a season high 65% of their paint shots.
Poeltl finished with 28 paint points – 12:47 AM
Tom Petrini @RealTomPetrini
15 games into 6’9” Jeremy Sochan’s NBA career, Gregg Popovich asked him to check Dame during Dame Time.
He forced a few misses and even blocked a stepback three. Special, special defender man. – 12:42 AM
Sean Highkin @highkin
Chauncey Billups says he called a timeout at one point to ask who was going to guard Devin Vassell. Damian Lillard said, ‘I’ve got him.’ Led to that block near the end. – 12:42 AM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
Spurs finished with 19 turnovers leading to 25 Blazer points. They had four in the 4Q, which Portland converted into 8 points. – 12:38 AM
Sean Highkin @highkin
Chauncey Billups on the Spurs: “They’ve got one of the best cultures the league has ever seen. They play so stinking hard. If you ever beat them, you’re going to earn it. I’m happy we got a W.” – 12:37 AM

Spurs led 106-100 with under 6 mins to go. Were outscored 17-4 over the duration, 2 of their points coming on a bad goaltend call. Keldon Johnson was featured but struggled, with 3 TOs and 3 bad misses from 3. Blazers started switching and Spurs didn’t have the iso juice – 12:25 AM

The Spurs battled all night but couldn’t execute in crunch time.
Portland wins by 7.
The Spurs are now…

Yes, It’s not good to build huge leads only to lose them and have to play from behind, but the Mavs have delivered the last two games vs POR & LAC. In clutch time, Mavs 12-17 FG 8-10 3pt – 12:25 AM

Very rough crunchtime for Keldon Johnson. Two misses from 3 that weren’t close, a travel before putting it down, and a fumbled pass out of bounds. – 12:21 AM

Spurs let their momentum slip away when Jakob took a breather. That’s what happens when superstars sit. – 12:19 AM
Kevin Pelton @kpelton
Keita Bates-Diop posting up Damian Lillard was not the mismatch the Spurs thought it was. As Lamar Hurd noted on the Blazers broadcast, Lillard relishes the challenge of defending bigger players in the post. – 12:18 AM
Casey Holdahl @CHold
That goaltend (maybe?) are San Antonio’s first points in over 3 minutes and ends a 10-0 Portland run. – 12:18 AM

Chris Herring @Herring_NBA
That’s a great defensive play by Lillard – 12:18 AM
Sean Highkin @highkin
They call Drew Eubanks “The Jakob Poeltl of Troutdale” – 12:17 AM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
That was a sick ATO by the Blazers, with Eubanks sprinting into a PnR, then sprinting out of it before Lillard even moved to use the screen. Lillard lobbed it to him and he got the and one. Almost ran it like a pass pattern – 12:17 AM

Spurs tried the ol’ Manu Ginobili fake zipper backdoor play, but Keldon Johnson couldn’t quite corral the pass. – 12:08 AM
Kevin Pelton @kpelton
Given how Jakob Poeltl has dominated tonight (a career-high 31 points on 14-of-16 shooting), will be interesting to see if the Blazers begin intentionally fouling to get him off the court. San Antonio is already in the bonus with 6:43 left to play. – 12:06 AM
