that the Spurs were much more aggressive.
Besides the win of course.
I liked that TD was attacking the rim instead of settling for that jumper.

Duncan and Manu.
Manu came back.
The role players provided something at different times. A Finley jumper, Horry defense or tapped out rebound, Barry moving the ball, Oberto getting some easy layups.
The big 4 did what we knew they would but I think it was important for our role players to outplay the Laker role players.
...that Doug Collins finally detached his lips from Kobe's jock.
The entire team attacked all 48 minutes... I loved it!!!!
And that we survived that Kobe 4th run.
Manu played hard and Barry came out shooting.
I liked that too.
1a) Manu Ginobili
1b) Bruce Bowen's defense and surprisingly consistent offense
2a) Tim Duncan
2b) Tony Parker
3) Brent Barry's passing
4) Pop's shorter rotations
5) Spurs ball movement
6) Spurs defense
7) Finley hitting some shots finally
8) Spurs aggressivenes for 48 minutes
In that order.
I was prayingwhen Kobe started to go off some in the 4th that we would keep attacking and not start shooting jumpers. I applauded when Timmy drove the ball right down Gasol's throat for the and 1. And of course all the bandwagonass Lakers fans here got up and left.....When we attack like that we are practically unbeatable.
Its almost like he is bucking for Phil's job once Phil retires.
I also liked that I won't have to see, or
, from 1Parker1 for a few days. (well at least not for anything Spurs related...
I like the fact that we beat them with authority. No close game at the end, or playing like vaginas when Kobe hit those treys, or stop being aggresive once we were up 20.
This was a must win game in my mind, and I thought it gave us some momentum, and gave us a new perspective on the series. Like Kenny Smith said on TNT, this game confirmed that being up 20 against these guys was not a fluke. We're definitely doing some things right. We need more of those in Game 4.
I also liked that I won't have to seeor
I like that the Spurs didn't let us down. It would have ruined a lot of Spurs fans weekends had they not shown up.
They should try to repeat this mental energy in game 4.
intersting spur stoped the pick and roll
and went to motion
motion o works folks
He has a better chance at Jeannie Buss.
Its almost like he is bucking for Phil's job once Phil retires.
Manu and Tim's aggressiveness, Brent's passing, Fab making his layups, Bruce's beautiful defense, and Tony's renewed confidence in the mid range J.
For this team it does. Motion offense requires guys who aren't lazy and crisp ball movement. Basically it's tailor-made for this team.
I am convinced that if we give Kobe his this team will crumble. He showed signs of it in the 4th. That is the best thing to happenn to us if Kobe starts trying to go Jordan on us the entire game. He cannot beat us on his own if we continue to play aggressive.
Especially if we can keep up the aggressiveness on the offensive end of the ball. They were driving it down those bas s throats tonight!!!
big 3 plus barry and less minutes for finley
The key to beating the Lakers is staying physical with Gasol and Odom....and Bowen on Kobe...
When the Lakers/Kobe made their/his run the Spurs didn't go into sputter-mode...rather, their offense barely skipped a beat due to some timely ball movement and clutch jumpers as many around the board have already pointed out.
