What is your definition of a trap game? The Spurs have won 5 in a row, do you think we will take them lightly? The have Aldridge and DeRozan and the best coach in the league. We lost less than one month ago to the Suns minus Devin Booker. Don't you think we know if we can lose to the Suns we know we can lose to anybody? I have heard fans say "tonight is a trap game". I think that is a discredit to the guys and coaches not to know better and prepare them and to know the nature of the league. Now maybe it is a subconscious thing, that on a conscious level they know what they have to do, but subconsciously they are coming off a big win and they will be in for an emotional letdown. But to me that is not a trap game as much as it is self sabotage. I think of a trap game as the second of a back-to-back on the road or playing against a team whose star is a late game scratch. I expect us to come strong tonight and win.
28-25 would be beautiful, one step closer to sweeping the homestand. 
It would be the 6th time we would be 3 games over. We have never been 4 games over .500. We have had success double teaming the low post when we necessary, sending a second man from the baseline. I expect we will do that against Aldridge. Gay is a tough cover, we don't have the length to match up. We have to slow him down and keep DeRozan in check. I expect Fox to have a big game. We could use a breakout scoring game from Bogs, he is overdue.
