    For those Spurs fans with the day off, you might want to check out the Spurs-Lakers coverage ion ESPN2's "First Take" this morning. I saw the first 20 minutes and it re-airs at 11:00 a.m. SA time.

    If you tune in, you can watch unabashed Spurs lover Skip Bayless expound about "my Spurs" as he analyzes the series. He does this every morning after a Spurs playoff game and some of his takes are quite insightful. (Also refreshing to see a national media guy so solidly in the Spurs corner.)

    Before Skip, you can watch Mike Monroe and LA TV/radio sportscaster John Ireland discuss the series in a remote broadcast from SA. Monroe discusses the healing qualities of the hot tub in Manu's back yard.

    Good stuff if you get a chance.

    Skip is a badass, except when he talks about TO, but that's besides the point Lol.
    Skip always supports the Spurs.

    Yeah, I watched it!
    Skip said that someone else needs to step up in game 4 not named Manu for us to win. Since he believes that Manu's game 3 performances was just because he is such a compe or and was "willing" his shots to the basket.

    I pretty much agree but if Manu can be aggressive and attacking the basket as well as Tony, which can provide open shots and if we can knock the down, hopefully we can win.

    I have mixed feelings about bayless. He loves the Spurs but in 2005 he bashed Vince Young and the Longhorns uncontrollably. That's not cool.

    I like skip as he never tries to be too politically correct. Don't get me wrong, he leaves me dumbfounded at times, but I respect him more than the writers who throw lame stuff out there all the time to not piss anyone off.

    I think Skip just likes being contrary. If everyone was rooting for the Spurs, he'd be for the Lakers!

    Inaccurate. He's been calling the Spurs "my Spurs" every morning on that show for two years now. (Not that anyone watches that show but me.)

    Everyone up here in TN is getting tired of VY's mediocrity.

    He's far from it. He's more like the second coming of Michael Vick...minus the whole dog thing....Athletic and overhyped.

    Yeah, I love the way he defends the Spurs, but he was on the USC hype machine and really went after the Horns.

    And his obsession with T.O. is quite childish.

    But he is pretty entertaining and makes some good points along with his asinine points.

    It's hilarious hearing him talk about Lebron, he goes off on how much he thinks bron is overrated. Watching Kobe after seeing Lebron so much against the spurs last year...i tend to agree with him.

    Kobe is on a different level than the "stars" of other teams, there's no comparing him to Lebron...it's not even close.

    Sorry, but he is a bit of a hack, not because of his spur love, but constant hatred towards kobe and bron.

    he took a team with two wins when he got there to the playoffs in his second year!! and his receivers get NO seperation. he's doing much better than i thought he would this early.

    care to remember how the great super bowl winning qb Troy Aikman started his career? he went 1-15!!
