Baynes hit a layup to tie the game 86 all at the end of the 4th. Now has 10 points and 6 rebounds. Mills struggling with 7 points off 3-9 shooting.

Spurs up by 2. Mills finishes with 14, 7 in OT. Baynes finishes with 12 and 7. Good to see the Aussies performing in the clutch!!
I'm always pleased when someone does well who was pushed out of their mother's womb on the same land mass that my mother was on when she pushed me out of her womb. It means more to me then when someone does well who was pushed out of their mother's womb on a different landmass that my mother was on when she pushed me out of her womb.

Patty killed it -team high 14 points off the bench, game winner and looked classy among the greats. Just a beast.

Only people who have never made it close to playing professional basketball think that the NBA is overrated! If an NBL team played any NBA team it would just be a joke! (For the NBA side that is!).

Got to hand it to Popovich. He went pretty much with the same lineup through the last quarter and overtime as that was on the floor when CSKA Moscow made a 17 - 0 run to tie it up. He could have brought his starters back on but decided to give the guys who are battling for spots plenty of court time and experience in a close game. He risked the loss against a European club and all that entails for an NBA team which showed he has big kahunas.
Mills and Baynes played well and should be buying Pop some drinks tonight for the great opportunity!
NBA teams don't take pre-season games even remotely seriously. Two of their three top scorers Patty & Baynes, both towel wavers during the season.

I hope readers can see beyond their little worlds a little more like this...

I have heard NBA League Pass and beam it to your TV using something like Apple.tv works well...

You do realize that CSKA was playing their bench also right?

CSKA was playing their bench at that time also. And CSKA's best player was basically benched for the whole 2nd half of the game.
What is your point exactly?
