Great to hear. My cable box shat on itself.
It's about time, tbh..
9 points, 9 boards, a couple of assists and steals, a block and he finally played tough inside..

TD/Splitter did a good job. We should play them together more time
He did so much more than his stats. He got his hands on a lot of balls that gained the Spurs extra possessions and really played tough.
He did a good job on the boards and played hard.
Splitter needed this kind of game. Pop needs to play him more immediately in the next game next to Tim if possible and ride that momentum.
Amen..
statement game from him.
True, his positional D was also solid(he got called for a ty foul against Kobe IMO)..
Agree with DPG, and OP. Splitter did work that won't show up on the stat line. Great tough outing by the Euro.
For sure. He played like a grown man out there tonight. Getting grown man rebounds and other GROWN MAN MOVES.
Surprising what a little confidence can do. That's why he should probably start. He's a confidence player. I think they may need to start Manu to get him going.
His D and hustle all over the floor was HUGE tonight...
lol Split pwning Dwight in the 4th
Pop needs to start splitter that is the best way to get him going and get the most out of him.
Yep, starting like two years ago.
I like what I saw today from him. He played hard & hustled
Pop needs to stop playing around and let Splitter and Duncan become a twin tower duo this season. Stop benching Splitter every time he plays bad. Let him play through it. We're gonna need it in the playoffs.
And thank goodness Bonner didn't see a minute of action. You can't coach height.
Oh yeah?
Splitter grew a pair and man'd up tonight, if only he could play this way all the time
splitter can always play like this
the problem is he always plays next to a 6'7 SG as his PF
then hes stuck rotating to get neal/manus guys since there horrible defenders and he has to boxout 2 7 footers and try to grab a rebound
if he plays with another 7 footer or a decent PF and doesnt have to play like dwight howard to look average then be fine
Tiago was awesome. I hope Pop continues to start him, and hope he stays healthy
I'd like to see Pop free Tiago, but until he toughens up he'll rarely receive more than "matchup" minutes.
Offense is terrible with Splitter and Timmy and arguably only works very well defensively against the unique LA big man combo but where Pau also has a lot tougher time guarding quicker players at the PF.
The NBA has changed a lot and playing two centers, maybe not even if they're as good as what the lakers have, but certainly not a Duncan-Splitter tandem, won't win longterm in the current climate.
We've had ample time to see smallball fail. I'd like Duncan and Splitter get a stretch of games to prove you correct.
