Big 3 appreciation thread

[Brazil]

On the road, the big 3 leading the spurs like the good old days. 69 pts, 15 assists, 21 reb :tu

[Nathan89]

69 points = vintage big 3

[urunobili]

It's been a while since all 3 did it like tonight. So proud :cry

[dallasmaverickslose]

That's the kind of big 3 I like to see!!!

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

TD is just pure assassin. Silent, pimp, killer!

[Holden_Caulfield]

timmy is god

[Brazil]

When was the last 69 pts perf by the big 3 tbh?

[slick'81]

Duncan has been great this season,tp an mvp candidate and finally manu looked great all around tonight!!let's roll!

[milkyway21]

on manu 3ptr miss in the last min 4Q . it is okay Manu....

[HI-FI]

this. i said the same thing elsewhere on here, i can't remember the last time they all 3 were clicking.


major appreciation and props for the sustained excellence.

Don't for get RC and Pop. The Spurs can play with any style... Great roster. And Pop's come up with a strategy to out gun the Warriors while shutting down one of the best scorers in the league in round two and out defending and grinding the Grizzlies in the finals. He's out coached GS and Memphis.

[milkyway21]

Tony, the smallest player on the court, is my best point guard in the league..

[100%duncan]

Reminds me of the good old days. :cry

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

They were great, especially Manu. He was playing with a ton of energy the entire game.

He missed just so Duncan could get his double-double and pass Wilt. :hat

P/S: Damn, how I wanted Manu to score 1 more point. The big three must be up there in terms of 20+pts from three different guys on the same team in a playoffs games.

[BillMc]

Nice game from the legends!

[Trifecta]

They were great, especially Manu. He was playing with a ton of energy the entire game.

I thought Manu's playmaking ability off the PnR was key in the 2nd half

[bklynspursfan]

They were awesome! :flag:

[tah]

Definitely a good game for the big 3!

[Bill_Brasky]

Manu was great. Really helped us start digging out of that hole as soon as he hit the court.

[Darius Bieber]

69 :hat

[Keepin' it real]

Funny. Earlier today I was wondering about the best game they've ever had as a trio in the playoffs. This might be second best, after game 6 vs. PHX in 2007. That might have been their best game ever.

[HarlemHeat37]

Duncan and Parker have given us many great moments this year, so while it's always good to see them playing at a high level in these games, it felt more special watching Manu play the way he did tonight, tbh..

Ginobili was a beast, tbh..even when he wasn't getting credited for assists, he was setting up the pick&roll with the hockey assist..I hope he has a few more of these for the Finals..

[crc21209]

All 3 of them were simply amazing tonight. And they each sort of took turns during the game. Manu saved the Spurs asses in the 1st half and in the 3rd when Tony took a breather. Tony was steady good throughout the entire game, and Timmy put the team on his back in OT. :tu

[ducks]

three days rest he plays much better

[capek]

It's thoroughly awesome to see all three of them play at this level, all contribute to getting a huge win in the WCF. Old times! :toast

thank you based amy

[Das Texan]

if manu can actually find his offensive touch, the spurs might really go somewhere this late spring.

shit.

[Mugen]

Manu has passed and boarded like a man possessed in the playoffs. Not bad considering he's shoot and defended horribly thus far tbh.

[mvparker]

Manu's the ultimate competitor... He's healthy and that's all I care about, he can shoot like shit, make dumb decisions at times but will never give up, he's the one who kept us in the game last night. True warrior.

[kaji157]

True, Ginobili scored 8 of his 19 in the final quarter and 5 of those 8 in the final minute. Had he made the 3 we win with 9 points in the final minute from him. And that was a good shot to say the least.
His shooting may be off but i´m sure it´s a matter of time. Maybe he regains his shooting just for the finals.

[mvparker]

A Finals' MVP trophy is waiting for him tbh. It would be awesome that each member of the Big three gets one, but prolly not the best year for him to get it unfortunately. Should've won it in 2005...
