what we learned from Game 2 . . .

[Creation88]

Spurs can regroup
Spurs can still play vintage defense
Bonner can respond
Pop remembers Hill is on the team
Gooden can be a legit low-post threat
Tony Parker can walk on water and turn water into wine

[S4Spur21]

James White!

[Creation88]

you cannot breath on Dirk without a foul call

[spursfaninla]

Was that in 2006 that Dirk had 20+ FTA, and the Mavs had like 40 in the game?

[HarlemHeat37]

we already knew all of this..

-when Bowen plays big minutes, we can still play great D..

-Tony Parker is unstoppable..

-Duncan elevates his game in the playoffs, as he showed overall in game 1, and as he showed with his defense tonight..

-the Mavs don't look so great when they stop getting calls in their favor..they get soft..

Losing sucks.

Winning rocks!

[silverblackfan]

A little extra Bowen and the defense controlled the game. Nice to see some classic D and a constant flow of offense. Gooden did a good job on the boards and is an offensive threat. Kudos to Bonner for showing a lot of heart and hitting some big 3s. Hopefully, this is the start of Bonner and Gooden filling in for the points we miss with Manu on the bench.

[Solid D]

Boxing out and hustling your rear ends off makes things so much easier. That's what the Spurs learned.

booner actually can get a rebound

[ElNono]

Eric Dampier is NOT an All-Star...

[Thompson]

booner actually can get a rebound

Yeah, but there was a reason he was the first one to know where the ball was coming off the rim...

Pretty good game though. I hope Mason starts shooting more often and Hill gets some actual minutes vs. Barea or Terry.

Great game. The world is right again. I can listen to sportstalk radio and watch sports on tv again.. But I still would rather see boner come off the bench.

lol, I do the same thing when the Spurs lose. I don't want to have anything to do with espn, sportstalk radio or anything else.

Great win tonight, though.....that looked like the 2005 team (excepting Manu's presence of course....)

[Budkin]

As TampaDude said, it's better to win than to lose in the playoffs, especially by 20+!
