TD has ditched pussy ball.

Watch out.

I'm watching.

Eh, it's been a couple of possessions, they haven't done horrible on him so far this series.

He tore them up in Game 1. I mean, he didn't drop 35 or anything, but he bended the game to his will in the 2nd half. Not what I was expecting, to be honest. I figured he'd crumble under the defensive mastery of the Spurs.

Duncan playing hard but we are missing too many open shots out of the double teams come on guys

[milkyway21]

I wish Chandler foul out early. It will be up to Tim Duncan. He must be more aggressive tonight.

Ely was like an anaconda in game 1 guarding Duncan.Grrr.

[mystargtr34]

Lets go guys im ing pumped for this sheeezy

[WildcardManu]

Tim will get his tonight, it's just about everyone else around him to contribute

He did in the open court, yes. In the halfcourt the Spurs have defended him quite well. Oddly enough the Spurs usually are really good with transition defense.

We hit shots out of the double teams and we win tonight, that simple.

They'll start to fall. They are wide open looks.

I'm surprised the Spurs aren't defending Paul better. I know he's good and all, but they're not looking any better against him than the defensive sieve that was the 07-08 Mavericks.

It's easy to look good when you've got Chandler and West setting moving screens for you every ing play. I noticed it in game 3 I think it was of the Dallas series, felt bad for you guys, and it hasn't gotten any better since.

I didn't realize that the NBA allowed lead blockers for their point guards these days.

Spurs look better and more agressive

[Spurologist]

B. Scott's philosophy of immediately doubling TD in the post will backfire. TD is already passing out of the double team better. Spurs are passing up some open shots early but they will eventually fall once jacked up

[neworleans8]

so does chris paul

[duncan228]

. Duncan was sick.

[Pistons < Spurs]

damn, a 103 degree temperature?

[kingsfan]

5pm, 9pm, & 5am the next day(agony they lost).

My damn power went out so it didn't tape. I've never heard of the site before, I'll check it out, thanks

Tyson Chandler is a perpetual moving screen, and a perpetual over-the-back. It's immensely irritating.

It worked for the Lakers for two series...

[hump]

Just hearing that Tim had 103 degree fever yesterday - explains Sat. game

[td4mvp21]

Are the Hornets going to hit contested fadeaways all series?

[Kobulingam]

. Duncan was sick.

When?

[dbreiden83080]

WELL WELL Duncan played with a fever

A pussy i think not for you ing haters.

[GrandeDavid]

Need to body check Chris Paul. Hard.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Damn nothing's falling for us.

[duncan228]

Playing with that kind of fever explains a lot. I hope he's over it, if he's still sick it's not going to be pretty.
