So it says that the old spurs need much more time for regeneration
and Shaq still had low minutes with 30.

It will be extreamly tough to win the second game.

We need some help from the bench esp. from Ime

As long as the games are not back to back im not trippin...

[Kori Ellis]

Pop managed the Spurs minutes really well all season. Obviously they can't have double OT games every night during the playoffs without getting worn out, but one game like this isn't going to kill them.

The training staff really needs to work on Manu's groin - other than that, the Spurs should be okay.

But I'd like a blowout Game 2 victory, so that the Big 3 can rest in the 4th. (Doubtful)

[Demo Dick Marcinko]

The next game is tues. Thats about 3 days worth of rest and rehab to get ready for the next game. Mildly concerned for Timmy but not for Tony, he's a lot younger.

[T Park]

2 days off

no work tommarow pop will want a day off for himself too.


practice monday

game tuesday.

yeah manu needs to sit in a hot tub inside an oxygen tank until tuesday afternoon.

[boutons_]

3 game-lesss nights of rest, hope they don't get rusty.

Sun flying back and forth to AZ.

[PlayoffEx-static]

More than 72 hours between tip offs. No worries.

[Phil Hellmuth]

i can tell you if games are always like this, the adrenaline will keep ALL the players going.

[timvp]

I guess this is when it'll help to have not tried too hard at the end of the regular season.

Pop will definately be working.

And I don't know if that groin have such an impact on Manu, he played with such injuries and was good. He must get his shot going.

But well playing 45 minutes - we have to see how his groin will react

[Allanon]

If game 1 was any indicator of how tight this series is going to be, wow. Whoever's gonna win better do it quick because 7 forty two+ minute games is gonna hurt in the second round versus the Mavs.

Still gotta win it one game at a time, 1 series at a time.

[xtremesteven33]

this is the only thing that worries me....spurs will be way too tires if they come out of this series...that is the only flaw i see for them not to all the way....Stupid celtics have a paved road to the finals....

[Budkin]

Dude everyone's gonna be tired in every series in the West this year.

[Allanon]

I'm pretty sure the Mavs and Lakers will finish up quick. Mavs in 5 possibly, Lakers in 4-5.

yup, I'd only be worried if every game was a double OT

[polandprzem]

I wonder if barry will be feelin good enough to play bigger minutes.
And Udoka disappeared - Bowen must whisper him some tips how to handle the situation.

Wow game two will be crucial. Defend home court!
