only good thing about the spurs losing this series is finley getting off the team.
Horry at least played some decent D on Odom in some stretches.
But Fin has been MIA since the 1st game of the playoffs.
Why is Pop still giving him valuable minutes out there?

Toss him under the bus?
Dude tossed the keys, laid down under it and said "start it up!"
He played 6 minutes tonight.
What "meaningful" minutes?
Finley only good for offense. If he can't do that then why would he be out there? Every player that Finley guards seems to get hot awfully fast.
He threw himself under the bus, at least he tried, but he missed that too.

Though with Pop's manlove for him, he'll probably be back and starting again next season.
I just wanted him to use his size to crash some boards tonight. That's all I was asking (or screaming) for.
Wow, after all he did last year, and what he did for the team in the first two rounds.
God you guys have short memories.
Finley would be OK if he was just missing shots... but he's not taking wide open looks that he has to throw up. Same with Horry.
Every second he's there, Lakers make a run.
He had the first turnover, seconds into the game. Followed by a brick.
When he came back in the 2nd quarter, he messed a rotation and left Walton all alone for a dunk. And this is just off the top of my head.
Yeah. All those big shots really helped us beat the Lakers this series
:wankfest:
He didn't even play 9 minutes tonight. He didn't start the 3rd quarter and he didn't even play 2 minutes in the entire 2nd half. He played 2 seconds in the 4th quarter.
He's sucked the whole series but he sure wasn't the reason we lost tonight. He could log a DNP-coaches decision and he'd still be blamed for a loss.
The problem with Finley is that he's streaky, and if he's not scoring, he's not helping.
All he did in the first two rounds? He had one game worthy of him even being on the court out of every 4-5 games played.
And he played well last year, who gives a . Are we in 2007 or 2008? That kind of idiotic thinking is the kind of thing that gets scrubs like Malik Rose 50 million dollar deals.
Gee, Finley contributed last year, I hope the Spurs give him a four year extension this year.
Dude hasn't played defense or crashed the boards since March, and people are still defending his sorry ass.
If he isn't hitting his J, there's no reason for him to be in there. A big fat whopping -18 tonight for SA with him on the court, including that nice 22-8 start to the game and the run at the end of the second quarter by LA.
ing scrub![]()
22-8 to start the game, we were playing catch up the rest of the way.
He had some good games this playoffs, but Pops manlove kept Finley in situations he had no business being in, especially starting tonight. Got abused on D again. Good coaching would put him in the right situations. I got a kick out of game 2 when he was getting used on D 1st part of game, Poppy leaves him in. Then he finally strokes a nicee three and Lord Poppy immediately takes him out. Yes it was prearranged, but that is the whole point. Poppy has zero ability to adjust on the fly, personified by his use of Fins vs the Lakers.
I didn't blame him for this loss. I just have been waiting for him to score 10 ing points in any game, and it's not happening. He's missing wide open looks, hesitating on the trey. We already know he can't guard anybody. So the question I: Elimination game coming up. Do you keep the faith on this guy, or you just go with something different, like Udoka?
It's not manlove. Pop knows finley gets so down on himself that he is afraid to bench his ass because finley will never be able to mentally overcome that.
Don't worry, Finley will be gone soon enough, along with Horry, Barry, and Thomas. They'll play their last game here Thursday.
In!
Did I miss it?
dude earns 2 paychecks...talk about efficiency, productivity, KPIs....
wtf is he still on the spurs, we shouldve traded his ass after the first ring...
i question this teams desire to repeat
Send that worthless Finley back to the Mavs so their weenie owner, Fidel Cuban, can start having orgasms again. That's if he's ever had one.
How many years does he have left on his contract?
