How in the world do you think you have time to catch and pass and expect someone else to shoot with 1 second left?

Come on now, Mason.

[mVp]

5 point lead at the half.

Duncan looks like a man amongst boys...with regards to the other Spurs

[Anti.Hero]

They should dress out manu just to keep the other team nervous.

[Spurtacus]

Halftime leaders

Duncan 12 points
Duncan 7 rebounds
Hill 4 assists

MVP = Oberto

[Warlord23]

All things considered, a good half. Duncan with a solid 12/7, decent play from the swing positions (Mase/Fin/Bruce). Poor PG play from JV and Hill. We need to keep the defensive intensity up after the break

[Biggems]

mason cracks me up.....he can run down the court and just jack up any old shot without hesitation.......but the two times we needed him to shoot (end of Portland and here before the half) he passes.

what are duncan and b davis talking about.. still that jump ball?!

[Fermixalot]

This was an ugly half. But the Spurs have no other choice than to play this ugly basketball. I'm not sure if its the D or the fact that the Clipper are terribel (maybe a little of both) but we're keeping the point total where we want it.

I'm happy so far, just wish the perimeter players would be more aggressive. We are not going to win with Bowen and Vaughn being the aggressors.

I was about to ask the same thing

[SpursFan0728]

I think we'll see more of Ahearn and less of JV in the second half

just something i learned today

[z0sa]

Why did Mason Jr not take that shot? Is he re ed or something?

[xtremesteven33]

I was about to ask the same thing

There was some yammering after Baron tied up Tim for the jump ball and you know Baron, talk talk talk.

Luckily Tim got pissed and made the Clippers pay.

[m33p0]

this tim duncan fellow is very good. 12 pts 7 rbs 1 block and 1 assist. sure glad the spurs drafted him all those 11 years ago.

[Biggems]

Just Turrible.......First of all, the Clippers are Turrible.....first of all, what is Mason thinking on that last shot, just Turrible

[Armando]

Wow Davis is pretty strong if he is able to tie up Duncan that way

[Fermixalot]

Just Turrible.......

Thanks Chuck.

i believe in that one second he was retarted.

[z0sa]

i believe in that one second he was retarted.

He was wide open and could have made this an 7/8 point game if he'd have just caught and fired.

[peskypesky]

I sure hope Baron Davis doesn't wake up and torch us in the second half.

[angelbelow]

He was wide open and could have made this an 7/8 point game if he'd have just caught and fired.

seriously, wtf was he thinking. and camby got the satisfaction of blocking duncan into the stands too.

[Manufan909]

Thanks, 228 for slowing it down.
