Sure cause Hill, Bonner, Blair, and Neal are really owning some es right now.

DPG, with the subtle troll goods
Bump . . .
You can talk about the effort of the bench all you want and it was great, no question. But you just knew they had to mess it up and sure enough, they found a way to. The lack of offensive execution down the stretch was to be expected (not that that makes it acceptable, mind you), but there's no excuse for the defense being atrocious. I lost count of how many times the Mavs scored instantly out of timeouts late. Not off of great execution, but bad defense.
When's the last time this team stole a game? They fold every time on the road, without fail. Even the two they won, look how they had to do it.
Pop has talked about how they basically modeled themselves after the Jazz. Well, the Jazz never changed who they were throughout Sloan's tenure. Not when Malone and Stockton aged, not when they left, never. The Spurs have done the opposite. They went from mentally tough to marsh mellow soft. They went from playing defense like their lives depended on it, to playing guys significant minutes who either can't defend, won't defend or both. They went from valuing size to completely disregarding it.
Because of all these changes (and some inevitable aging from their stars), the league hasn't respected this team in a few years. Not just the good teams, either. Remember Love's and Lee's comments last season? That spoke volumes. That's why they need to go all out to sign Martin and why they need to bench Jefferson, if they can't trade him. No, they can't bring back prime Duncan . . . but that doesn't mean they can't go back to being what they were at their core.
Rj is a disease and he's contagious.
How many times do I have to say it? When, if ever, will the front office figure this out?
LOL ... spoiled spurs fans
I agree with the GNSF
Great bump.
WTF? I don't understand this bump.
You mad about the winning streak or the injuries or what?
The bump was just before Neal's 3 pointer.
Probably mad because they have to go to overtime just to get a win.
Ah, okay. Thanks for clearing that up
22-9, 10 game winning streak, beat OKC&LAC... TP in 07 form... achieved this without a backup PG, without Manu...
defeat Clips without Tiago....big man options are an old man, a ginger, and whataburger-bear
I don't get this even before the 3. This loss (if they would have lost) I would have been ok with. They responded in a big way in the 2nd half and fought their butts off to stay in it even after losing Tiago and Manu.
I guess what pissed the thread starter is the lack of execution in the clutch time.
Obviously, if you lose a close game on the road against a championship contender in which two of your four best players get hurt you are a gutless worm.
Of course you know someone is going to say "Splitter in, down by double digits. Splitter leaves, we win.
What about if you win?
Or did it? Just hatin'.
ur on crack if you wouldve taken th eloss today
first quarter performance was pathetic, but the team continued to rally to build a 10-15pts lead...
the team for some odd reason plays very with leads, doing stupid like shot selections...
Timing Bump fail...
Serious hangups illustrated by the OP.
Go kick a Nun or something.
So we were on a 9-game winning streak at the time this thread was bumped?
The Spurs are killing their draft position. How are they ever going to get a top big if they can't get near the top of the draft.
bump for premature bumps.......dumbass
