12-36 on wide open shots.
I blame the 14 million.
Our starting point guard only had 1 ast last night.

One final thought. When Parker signed his extension at $14 million dollars a year, the prevailing idea was that San Antonio had snagged a huge bargain. If Parker doesn't shape up, that simply isn't true. Given the glut of incredible point guards in the league, $14 million a year doesn't sound particularly enticing for a barely-above-board point guard. Which, frankly, is how he's playing. In all likelihood, Parker will improve. If not, though, his contract will stand as yet another of the NBA's "great at the time, awful in retrospect" contracts that make many of our snap judgments on contract efficacy so retrospectively silly.
Manu should be 3-7, he took like three shots with 0 secs left in the shot clock. No bad passes. He is not one of the reasons Spurs post.Quote:

How can you be in the NBA and not be able to dribble the ball and take it to the rim..Kawhi, Green? HOW?
NoQuote:

It's also because Matt Barnes is really, really, really bad. They double Kawhi with Griffin as the help guy. It's important that Pop notices this and doesn't start the game with two bigs unable to spread the floor.Quote:

Hopefully he saw what the Clippers were doing on tape, makes the proper rotations, defensive match ups and exploits the Clippers when they double team Kawhi .
Kawhi also deserves the max, more than Parker's contract at this point being a Parker fan.
:cry But it's still all Parkers fault :cryQuote:

On the other hand a Duncan-Splitter and Parker lineup really can't space the floor enough. Green basically hits 1 of every 3 three point attempt on the road (35% to 47% in S.A) and Leonard being a low volume 3pt shooter on most nights ( KL is barely above league average in 3pt % this season).Quote:

In the 15 games he's taken 4 or more 3's he's only shot 40% or better 6 times. Thats a great strategy for the Clippers. He's only hit two or more 3's in a game this season 9 times, while having 50 games where he's taken at least 2 three-point attempts.
They are going to continue to pack the paint. If Splitter were healthy enough to play 16-20 minutes, I'd start him at PF (like normal) and bring him back to sub Duncan. With the exception of the first 6 minutes of each half. Duncan and Splitter shouldn't be playing together. Diaw and Bonner should be the other bigs on the floor with either of them. Mills is probably the best bet to help alleviate the spacing, as long as he is '14 patty. I'd like to see him get 15+ minutes in game 2.

Not trying to place blame on anyone but this is not the way theSpurs had played in the previous month. A couple of missed shots that should have been made makes for an entirely different game.

Damn FTs........
From what I saw yesterday, an injured Splitter is a liability on defense at this point. He didn't seem to phase Griffin at all on the defensive end, and on the other side he let Griffin get 3 blocks! Haven't checked but I think that's a career-high for him. It's going to be hard for Green to get open with Reddick on him (a guy who specializes in running through multiple picks to get open) Also, Diaw can handle the ball in the starting lineup. Doc did a great job yesterday in eliminating Parker and Leonard so that forced Green to create on his own by going to the basket which was some of the ugliest driving I've ever seen.Quote:

I agree they have to keep Duncan and Splitter away from each other throughout the series. Jordan is an exceptional rebounder but the team as a whole is average - below average. Mills has to be out there whether he hits or not IMO. He already proved to them that he can't be left open. Joseph's guy on the other hand was completely ignoring him on offense and once Joseph got the ball they knew what was coming.. They took a charge outside of the circle while he drove to the basket. I'd even go with a Parker + Mills lineup, I saw on a thread earlier that they work really well at the same time. Pop should use that lineup when he sees Doc pull his really predictable Paul + Rivers backcourt.
I expect Bonner to start Game 2.
