Why the hell does Popovich keep going back to Horry in the fourth quarters. He hasn't done anything of note in a fourth quarter so far this season. He can't rebound or block shots. He doesn't hit jumpers too often anymore. His free throw shooting is off.

Why is he out there? Rose had seven points and eight rebounds in 17 minutes. Rasho had eight points, five rebounds and three blocks in 26 minutes. Stop going to Horry in the fourth quarters. Either keep Rasho in there or go with Rose. Horry's career is over. He's choked two playoffs in a row.

Horry is not a closer.

I agree with timvp horry should not play in the 4th quarter especially if Malik plays like he did tonight and horry keeps playing like he had these last two games

Pop has to many options. Obviously he is not comfortable with Rasho playing or else Horry wouldn't be in there. Pop is a hypocrite with his own players. He starts them, but they don't finish? WTF is up with that?

He started Hedo but Manu finished. He starts Rasho and Horry finishes. He starts Bowen and Barry finishes.

WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY?

Hey smart guy - the game is played a little differently with 48 minutes left than it is with 3 minutes left.

Read the topic rapboy. He's talking about Horry playing in the 4th. Can you read? Not only Horry, but others.

Pop is going to go to Horry in the playoffs. And Horry is going to make it three playoff duds in a row.

Spurs swept them. They would have beat them if IceColdBrewski was the power forward.

Well, what's the solution timvp? I mean, you have to roll with Pop, he does have 2 rings you know and we know that Hill, Lucas, and Tark could've never taken the Spurs there. Why should we second guess him?




















Because without Duncan his ass would be emptying my trash can.

Play Malik or even Rasho in fourth quarters.
