CJ McCollum on the Spurs in the 4Q: “They executed well. They went to that zone down the stretch. They got a lot of stops. They got some offensive rebounds and extra possessions. I think that changed the game.” – 8:59 PM

On delay of game tech, Jose Alvarado: “I guess it’s a rookie mistake. (Refs) told me not to touch the ball. I thought handing the ball (to ref on baseline) would help, but they said, nah just leave (the ball) alone. If it just bounces off my body, it won’t be a delay of game.” – 8:13 PM

Technically, the Spurs still have a chance at 8th. However that’s a very challenging road though. It would require…
…Clippers go 0-7, Spurs 6-2
…Clippers go 1-6, Spurs 7-1
…Clippers go 2-5, Spurs 8-0 – 8:05 PM

Spurs have downgraded Devin Vassell (right Achilles soreness) from questionable to out.
They will also be without Lonnie Walker, who will miss his third game in a row with lower back tightness. – 2:07 PM

Three Western Conference playoff race questions:
1. Who winds up 4th. #Mavs #Jazz tied at 45-29.
2. Who ends up 6th? #Timberwolves just half game behind #Nuggets.
3. Will #Lakers finish 9th, 10th or out the play-in at 11th? Tied with #Pelicans, two games up on #Spurs. #NBA75 pic.twitter.com/nRPk8dwcnT – 12:52 PM

Today’s game has big head-to-head tiebreaker implications.
Spurs lead season series against the Pels 2-1.
If the Pels win, they end the season 2-2 against the Spurs.
Next tiebreaker then becomes Southwest Division W/L.
Pels are 6-8.
Spurs are 4-8. – 12:26 PM

When the Pelicans have posted at least two wins over the Spurs in the regular season, they’ve wound up in the playoffs. It’s happened five consecutive times.
New Orleans is entering today’s matchup against San Antonio with a 1-2 record … Let’s Geaux!! https://t.co/eDVmQrYs83 pic.twitter.com/psBwbzNjEw – 11:33 AM
