I have to go with a co MVP. And that's between Horry and Oberto. The two games in Denver were extremely crucial. And non other than Robert Horry was there to lift up the team in crunch time. Oberto because Duncan couldn't do it by himself, and Elson wasn't of much help either. Oberto did what we needed him to do in being a solid big instead of trying to be a hero.
And my honorable mention goes to Bruce for doing the little things that just down show up on stat sheets. He definitly had his hands full with A.I. and Melo.
I think it's great that there isn't a clear cut MVP of this series. Everyone stepped up at different moments, either offensively, or defensively. That's the definition of TEAM , and is what will get you through to the Finals. The 2nd round opponent knows they can't focus on one player, as multiple guys can step up when needed.
It's not Manu, that's for sure. Hopefully he's saving that shit for the Suns.
Mouse, give it a rest already! :lolQuote:

Other than him, it's incredible how few people are praising Parker's D. People were quick to bash him after game 1.. but his D on AI was incredible along with 18/7/3 is pretty damn good. I think it goes Tim, Tony and then Finley/Horry on the next level then Oberto/Bowen/Manu etc..
The bench.
Saludos.
Do you even have to ask who the MVP was?
Simple. Two words:

That sounds like something mouse would say to throw us off.Quote:

And the MVP does to .....Fin-dog!!!!
I remember how he was being toasted for his inconsistent shooting in the playoffs last year!
He looks to be in a zone this year!
Finley wins.
Robert deserves serious props. Timmy never gets his due- he's so awesome you almost take great play from him for granted.
Gino had some clutch shots too- look forward to seeing even more from him in upcoming rounds.
Tony parker.
Without his defense, and how well he ran the team the last 4 games, this series goes the other way.
Tony parker, SHUT DOWN Allen Iverson.
Whether it is mouse or not doesn't matter......their posts are still pointless, and just plain stupid.Quote:

Though Tony did a good job on him in stretches. Bowen had a lot to do with shutting down AI, not to mention the Team. We had at minimum three guys converge on AI every time.Quote:

Duncan MVP with Parker close second.
Parker was great. Many of his drives he should have gotten the foul call, likewise many of AIs drives the fouls against Parker and company were bogus.
Finley doesn't happen without Duncan.
The transformation of Finley from chucker to maker with some defense and team ball thrown in is fantastic.
Whats good news is Duncan has not had a breakout game yet.
Fine with me if he wants to open it up vs Phx.
I'll go with TD.
That Tim Duncan was owned this series.Quote:

Tony parker.
Apology accepted :)
Tim Duncan.
He's the tip of the spear.
What fires up his teammates is not the bank shots or even the mellow dunks.
It's the second, sometimes third effort putbacks that show how determined he is to score.
That's the motivator, it starts with Timmy.
get off his cojones. what motivated them was Bowen's D, Horry's Daggers, Fin's Shots, and even Elsons Dunks. Duncan is lastQuote:

There's a pattern there.
