Offensive Rebounds over and over and hustle lost this game - period plus some dismal FT shooting Parker despite some good play in 3rd missed 4 in a row - I don't believe other top point guards do that!

Plus no fast point points. Enough said.

Will it light a fire on Spurs or be a regression point. Time will tell.

Simply cannot lose these type games this year but now have at least 4x = fighting for seeds with other powerful teams and Dallas coming on strong (Spurs need to win that game).

Still 28 and 8 but a game like this makes on really makes me shake my head at what happened = Who has some answers?

Spurs honestly haven't looked good for a week and a half.

Spurs had 13-game W-streak last Dec, after Tim and Tony sat out Nov, then came back after Christmas and lost to the damn 6ers, and then Spurs stunk it up for most of January.

At least when PHX or MIA or SEA get beat, they really get beat in a good game. The Spurs just donate the games away in crappy games to keep the NBA in a jolly mood.

Playing in the NBA and on the Spurs really ought to be fun, making $millions, years of million-$ job security, great pension plan, not a worry in the worl,d etc.

Why can't they play basketball consistently? ain't it fun anymore? where's the pride?

I cannot sleep may as well work on some BS for my work.

I don't mind losing to a good team but Spur had lead, ball with 30 sec and pissed it away to a bad team after coming back on awful night. That is what really sucked.

Why not a time-out a quick 2 for 1? Instead, shoot with 13 miss and give other team enough time to saunder down floor and jack it up and of course OR and loss.

By the way, heard on radio - was the last basket definite?

Jazz were hungry, I thought Spurs played awesome. Tim Duncan is by far the best in this leauge right now. good game guys

[samikeyp]

Did they go easy enough on ya? :)

I remember seeing a graphic early in the game that showed the Spurs 10-11 from the line. They finish 14-29 rest of the game. Utah played well but this is one of those games you win from the line.

Also, wtf was up with Manu running into Horry on that last offensive trip? That looked like a play I would expect the Bobcats or the Hornets to screw up but not a team that is vyeing for the championship, not the Spurs.

Also, wtf was up with Manu running into Horry on that last offensive trip? That looked like a play I would expect the Bobcats or the Hornets to screw up but not a team that is vyeing for the championship, not the Spurs.Here is some info regarding this:

The Jazz set up for the final play with 7.4 seconds left after the Spurs failed to extend their lead. Spurs guard Manu Ginobili drove into the lane off a pick-and-roll but ran into teammate Robert Horry. Ginobili still put up an off-balance shot, but the ball caromed off the rim and Okur secured the rebound.

"Many times when we play a pick-and-roll, if I turn the corner the other big guy ducks in," Ginobili said. "That's the whole path for me to finish. But I think Robert got pushed, and I went toward him and couldn't take a good shot. Some things like that happen."

I was at that 6'ers game in the USAA courtside luxury box!!! It was absolutely great, except for that we didnt win, but it was still really cool.
