Yeah, he must not have gotten the memo. Loafing around and letting their guys shoot uncontested shots? That just isn't smart. I know it's garbage time, but damn. You'd have to have been living under a rock not to know better than that.

He does it every year. And the league always rescinds some of them. They rescinded several already this year. And if they hadn't rescinded some last year, he would have missed time in the playoffs.

Tim lived with that and worse his whole career. They beat the hell out of him off the ball, too.
But if he's going to bitch about whistles, he should remember that they almost never call 3-seconds on him. He isn't half as good of a defender when they don't let him camp in the paint.
More to the point... if he's going to bitch about whistles, he's going to get technical fouls.

Spurs use a bit of a smokescreen on the Heat (http://www.48minutesofhell.com/)
by Andrew A. McNeill
48 Minutes of Hell
AT&T CENTER — Spurs Head Coach Gregg Popovich is a pretty no nonsense type of guy. Most of the time, when he’s asked about a particular player coming to town or system the Spurs are going up against, his answer is usually something along the lines of “if we do what we do, we’ll be fine.”
But with the Miami Heat coming to town, Coach Pop called a bit of an audible. Tony Parker was scheduled to be out 2-4 weeks with a strained soleus muscle (http://www.48minutesofhell.com/tony-parker-injured-calf-muslce-strained-soleus). Apparently Tony started feeling better pretty quick. But instead of running him out there and declaring him game-ready, the Spurs made it look like they were taking it slow.

I hate to be a downer, but in the past when the Spurs have had a game like tonight, where everything goes their way, they have really struggled coming out of the gate the next game.

Here's a couple:
Erik Spoelstra: "We basically got blitzed," Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said.
Tim Duncan: "It's just better when the best teams come in here and you can really lock in and see what we have," Spurs forward Tim Duncan said.
Pop: "That's a ridiculous night as far as 3s go," Popovich said. "It's very rare. We had it tonight and we're thankful for it. It made for a wonderful night."

Some post-game quotes.
NBA-best Spurs crush skidding Heat 125-95 (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/recap?gid=2011030424)
By Paul J. Weber
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich had looked forward to the Miami Heat testing his team with some stiff competition.
This wasn’t it.
This wasn’t even close.
In the most lopsided loss this season for LeBron James and Miami, the Spurs crushed the Eastern Conference contenders in humiliating fashion, winning 125-95 on Friday night and handing the slumping Heat their fourth loss in five games.
“We basically got blitzed,” Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said.
Manu Ginobili led the NBA-best Spurs (51-11) with 20 points. He scored 11 of those during a runaway first quarter that left the Heat looking as rattled as they did Thursday night, when they blew a 24-point lead in a stunning loss to Orlando.
After only the first quarter in San Antonio, the Heat were already down 24.
Tony Parker made a surprise return to the starting lineup and had 15 points and eight assists, less than a week after the Spurs feared their point guard might miss up to a month with a strained calf muscle.
Popovich joked that his French star’s quick turnaround was thanks to a “foie grois and truffle” treatment that really worked.
The Heat? They weren’t in such a light mood.
Miami’s previous worst loss was a 28-point blowout against Denver on Jan. 13. That came in the midst of the Heat’s last meltdown, when they were stuck in another stretch of losing four of five.
Here they go again.
“We’re still a confident bunch,” James said. “We know it’s a tough stretch for us right now. We lost three games in a row, but I feel like all it takes is one win.”
James scored 26 points and Dwyane Wade had 19. It won’t get much easier for the Heat, who return home to play Chicago on Sunday. Then they’ll face Portland, the Los Angeles Lakers and Memphis before hosting the Spurs on March 14.
San Antonio isn’t getting a break, either. The Spurs have another tough one Sunday against the Lakers.
But unlike the Heat, things couldn’t be going better for the Spurs.
“It’s just better when the best teams come in here and you can really lock in and see what we have,” Spurs forward Tim Duncan said.
San Antonio hit a franchise-record 17 3-pointers, including eight in the first quarter. Matt Bonner was 4 of 4 and Ginobili went 3 for 4.
So stunning was the lopsided surge that the typically reserved Duncan mouthed “game over” while the Heat sulked to the bench after calling another timeout.
It was still the first quarter.
“That’s a ridiculous night as far as 3s go,” Popovich said. “It’s very rare. We had it tonight and we’re thankful for it. It made for a wonderful night.”
Spoelstra preached “adversity” and “collective resolve” with reporters before the game. He said that following the Heat’s incredible collapse against Orlando on Thursday night, team president Pat Riley joined him in trying to brainstorm ways to get the team out of another funk.
Instead, they came up speechless.
“Part of the conversation was … just sitting there, in silence, while both of us were trying to think about what we can do next,” Spoelstra said.
San Antonio, meanwhile, crossed another opponent off its list.
Beating the revamped Heat in their first meeting left the Spurs with a victory over every NBA team this season except Boston—which extended its East lead over the Heat to three games.
The Spurs host the Celtics on March 31.
Bonner finished with 18 points and Duncan had 11 points and 14 rebounds. Richard Jefferson scored 11 points and DeJuan Blair had 10 as every Spurs starter was in double figures.
Gary Neal added 14 points off the bench.
The Spurs extended their franchise-record home winning streak to 22 games. It’s just another milestone in what is so far the best regular season in team history.
Chris Bosh had 17 points and Mike Miller 12 for the Heat. Erik Dampier, making his sixth straight start, had no points and two rebounds before being ejected for shoving Parker hard to the ground in the third quarter.
Maybe it was frustration.
“We don’t want to hear anything about that’s not going to happen this year for us, or it takes a long time for championship teams to be built,” Spoelstra said before tipoff. “Or it takes battles or the proverbial wars together.”
NOTES: The Spurs signed F Steve Novak for the remainder of the season. … Texas Gov. Rick Perry sat courtside with Spurs owner Peter Holt.

Did anyone else see two guys behind the Spurs bench dressed like Harry and Lloyd from Dumb and Dumber? The scene where they wore the orange and blue tuxes.

San Antonio Spurs 125, Miami Heat 95: The Spurs have been around longer than the Heat, and it showed (http://www.48minutesofhell.com/)
by Jesse Blanchard
48 Minutes of Hell
AT&T Center–In the Miami Heat locker room before the game, on the white board coaches like to put together with pre-game notes for players, Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra asked his team to question: Where do we stand?
Among the list of keys to the game, along with strategic things like denying three-point shooters open looks and swarming Tim Duncan, was a call to show resolve when things were not going well, trust under pressure, and play with enthusiasm.
The Miami Heat literally did none of those things, letting Manu Ginobili score on the opening tip on their way to a 36-12 first quarter deficit and a 30-point loss (http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=310304024).
Where do the Heat stand? The same place as where they started when the Decision trio first united, as an undeniably dominating collection of talent hastily thrown together with scraps, that is still learning how to deal with adversity.
“We need this adversity. I’ve learned that the quickest way to bring change in this league is through adversity,” Spoelstra said before the game. “Those events, as long as they don’t break you, can fast track you towards what you want to do.”
These San Antonio Spurs have seen those battles and fought those fights, having long ago proven themselves a hundred times over. In a question of talent versus chemistry, chalk tonight up to the team that wasn’t practically just assembled yesterday.

Did this game thread actually exceed the Brewer thread in posts/views?

...Meanwhile, it’s time to start acknowledging the Spurs as the best team in basketball. They are 51-11, the Heat are the only team with a better scoring margin (although that may have just changed), and they just beat the Heat by 30 points. We won’t know any of this for sure until the playoffs are over, but right now the Spurs look like the team the Heat were supposed to be.
