Almost cost us a 26 point meltdown
Time to shelve his ass and hope he recovers
He can not play against physical d
Too old
avoid at all costs
Wow zero points
Sad thing is thanks to the ref screw job on our favor tonight the Grizz will be allowed to go raw on
us in game 3
He had a couple of open shots. Some nights they go in some nights they don't.
He probably dove for a loose ball or something, so all is forgiven.
Only 2 turnovers, not 6. So... :tu
How 'bout the constant gambling on D that leaves all his teammates out to dry? :lolQuote:

Who do we replace him with?
Memphis had a great strategy of picking our guards up way out and pushing us to the perimeter in the 3rd. Both Patty and Tony. Fortunately our D got some stops and allowed some free setups and Memphis flat out got tired.
A chair?Quote:

So so you want Green bringing the ball up...?Quote:

Sure.Quote:

Just get a bit tired of this unplayable crap when we all know we have a guard problem.
We have to battle through and it will most likely catch up with us.
He led the team in assists and steals tonight, tied 3rd best on rebounds, took only 4 shots and was a +6 net positive in just 18 mins...Quote:

Yeah, we need 20 min per game for a scoreless turnover machine because he can get the ball past half court in 8 seconds.Quote:

I know. I troll in these threads because I want Patty and Manu held to the same standards as Tony. Patty can play like absolute dogshit, but he hits a 3 when the Spurs are up 15, and he's praised. Manu can turn the ball over 400 times, brick all his shots, but he's eventually praised because he dove for a loose ball or flopped to draw a charge.Quote:

That's what I'm afraid of. Tempers are already high. I hope we don't suffer any big injuries.Quote:

Good shit we can still beat Memphis without Manu, tbh.
Then you missed when the entire arena was chanting MANU MANU MANU, that was pretty awesomeQuote:

My point is you get to a sequence when you just need a body that has seen it before, even if it's 39 and will screw up on occasion.
But you can't bring it up though. :lolQuote:

The problem with Manu is he doesn't know how to settle himself down. He gambles so much on defense and passing. If he could scale it back when it's not there, it wouldn't be so bad.
But instead, when it starts going bad, he dials it up even more causing more of a mess.
Manu can rest both early rounds, we dont need him yet,
but we shall need his leadership against GS
So, if Im Pop, im resting Manu until the Western Finals.

We didn't need him in any of the games because tp is playing good.
Manu will be there for the important games.
dang dabom I know you have an agenda and most of the time it is funny but last night is not the night to try to say Manu > Tony. Not when Tony was the team's 2nd leading scorer and Manu had 0 points, and the best you can come up with is raw +/-? I take that back this is actually funny, carry on...:lolQuote:

One rebound, one steal
1 TO
Seems to me he didn't play well, but not poorly either. A net impact of +- 0 during that span <shrugs>.
His 3pt shooting was definitely off, but he doesn't wait in the corner.
Porker tried to shoot us out of the game tbh. 14 shot attempts, the same as Kawhi. :lol
1 assist, 2 turnovers from our starting point guard. What a joke. Textbook hero ball last night you. No passing, just dribble dribble dribble, shoot shoot shoot. Kawhi practically had to pry the ball out of Enrique's dead hands to get any opportunities.
Folks here acting like the Spurs have a puncher's chance at a ring this year :lol
":cry but Manu didn't score.. and Patty missed those threes.. we need to clean that up"
:lol that's not going to matter soon.

If Tony Patti and Manu all have a great series I dont see us losing to anyone except the Warriors and we would make it pretty competitiveQuote:

so "that dont matter"???
If you lose to the Warriors even playing great, it don't matter that Manu or Patty isn't playing great. The outcome is the same; no ring.Quote:

I get it that Pop wants to force Memphis to show on every player to open the middle for the bigs and give Kawhi some rest on offense, but goddamn let the dude touch the fucking ball you little aborigine faggot.
that's incredibly misleading when kawhi had 19 free throws... i dont have a count of how many of those were and-1's, but thats about 9 unregistered FGA'sQuote:

If was the FTA + MEM Gameplan that caused TP to take most of those shots. He even stepped up and hit tough 3's when other 3 point shooters on the team were bricking and that is not even his role.
parker did have a higher usage rate for the game, though. north of 36
Read my previous statement. They pressed and trapped kawhi.Quote:

If they paid him more, he'd play better.
