Well it's 6 o'clock in the morning here in Paris, I have no more voice, I am a wounded man now but I don't feel like being dead yet.
I'm going now to quick analysis before goin' to bed.
First of all, you all know the Spurs always had and will have the heart of a champion,but we must admitt this OKC team is a hell of a good team.
They're simply a world champs caliber team, and I don't see any other team facing against them like the spurs did.
But in fact, the Spurs didn't play that well the whole series, to many TO,less assists, they only played part-time.
They never succeed in building a confortable lead at home, only counting on momentums...
We all know that this momentum is the Spurs force but taking that to maintain the deficit and not to build a lead is just complicated, very complicated, specially against a great team like OKC...
But that also gives me hope as we can still keep this close at game 6, we just have to play our game.
Tonight game was ours , easily.
We made 21 TO wich is bad, very bad for a spurs playoffs team.
TP started well the couple first minutes, being agressive, it seemed like he'd have one of those nights when going bad ass, but him and the rest of the crew mentally choked when OKC took the lead.
And add to this the terrible rotation made by Pop, the Spurs should never be down 8 at HT.
Fortunatly for us OKC didn't played that great otherwise we're down by 20...
TP and TD never stepped up in the 2nd half, when they did it was too late.
whatever, Manu was absolutly magnificient tonight, there is no excuse the Spurs loose...
Tonight they should have go to TD first, making him work early as usual, take Manu off the bench as we've been outscored at the benchpoints battle.
But overall, TP was very very bad, not being the regular season TP managing his teammates,not being a real floor general .
Pop was disappointing too.
But I repeat, this kind of rally or momentum we had in the early 3rd quarter makes me BELIEVE harder than usual.
To resume if we make some adjustments you guys have every right to believe till the end:
Play simple, shoot it when you're open , no need to extra pass each time,(especially to the young guns), make TD work early on Ibaka and Perkins , Manu comes off the bench(we need his scoring against OKC 2nd unit), start SJax, give Splitter some trust, no more Neal at PG, shorten the rotation with Diaw for 30 minutes.
Tonight even the gods of the basketball couldn't help us cause they thought it was violating the human rights so much we've been awful...
We've been there before, come on all spursfans need to believe and support their team.It's almost a fukin NBA title game!!!!
BELIEVE till the end!!!!!:lobt2:
