Re: Do/should the Spurs Continue the Hack-a-Jordan for the rest of the series?
If you ask me, hack a Jordan should be a valid strategy, but only on certain situations. And there are clearly 3 situations.
#1 Whenever a Spur turns it over and is a fast break, Hack-a-Jordan.
#2 Whenever we have an obvious mismatch on defense with Blake Griffin, Hack-a-Jordan.
#3 If (god forbid) Bonner is on the court, (he should) Hack-a-Jordan.

they didn't score after them but dammit they had some good looks. they just couldn't capitalize

It's a great strategy. However, it's only truly effective on the road as it sucks the life out of the crowd.

Nah, because they still have to play offense. Foul trouble is an obvious risk of too much hacking, but the Spurs lose too much on offense if they play guys like KA and Ayers.
On the other hand, Belinelli and especially Bonner become much more viable when they don't have to play defense, and Bonner can foul out with impunity.
