    During the Hornets game, the Spurs stifled New Orleans on defense, and outscored them up until around mid-way through the fourth quarter. The Spurs, all game long, missed wide open three pointers, and it was an off night for the shooters. In all, they shot 39%. It wasn't that the Hornets played good defense; I felt their defense was rather lacking. The Spurs just weren't hitting ridiculously wide-open shots. Which they had alot of, by the way. A whole lot. So, when they Hornets got hot, and hit what felt about three consecutive threes, the Spurs lead pretty much dwindled to nothing, and they flat out didn't have the energy to finish out the game. Bummer.

    Against the Magic. Well, they were tired. Tony's fatigue was especially noticeable, and he seemed to be scared to drive due to the Magic's inside presence. But as a team, the Spurs were playing pretty abhorrently. Not much to be said there.

    I think both games, more than anything, were lost due to fatigue. The Spurs just ran out of gas.

    It's an 82 game season and the Spurs have always had some bad losses.

    Especially the Hornets game ( I felt they should have won!!)

    Anyway...the road trip was disappointing but it's still December and they still have some things to work on!!

    Good opponents. That simple. Anyone can beat Memphis and Toronto.

    Yup. Spurs are 5-9 vs .500 teams. In comparison, the Celtics are 10-1 and the Lakers are 9-3. It comes down to squad depth. A team like the Lakers and Celtics would have won that NO game since their squad is deep enough so that they don't have to worry about scoring droughts. Spurs don't have that luxury and are prone to blowing big leads.

    We didn't necessarily play bad...we just didn't make our shots and they did.

    Well said. But I think with time Roger and our new center Matt will improve the bench. Im really liking the way Matt has been playing. Keep him plugging away is what I say. The more time Matt is out there the better it is for him.

    This is a clear sign that the spurs are no where near a championship team this year. Unless the spurs are beating the above .500 teams like the other top teams in the league forget about a le this year.

    Pop is giving a lot of space to the role players, a thing that Lakers and Celtics donīt.

    Role players are good against bad teams, and will fail most of the timmes against good opponents.
    Usually the spurs start rolling when TD and Manu are more involved, TP is usuallly involved because he is the PG and has the ball from the start.
