agree
tonight,other than blair,the rest is bad and self-doubt! are you confident you can beat celtics?no. no hustle,no heart, no energy!
duncan get his stats,but ramble outside,why not post in the paint killing ing up perkins or kg?sigh,pop should respect blair! better give his chance to offense!
agree
this roster.
I'm content to mail it in and just make Blair the franchise.
Its embarassing what the once might Spurs have fallen to.
I was saying the whole time at the game tonight I wish we had 3 Blairs and 2 Duncans on the floor....nobody else on the team even put forth a in effort
Just think if Blair hadn't of tipped in that one rebound.
Too bad his teammates don't have his heart. This Spurs team looks worse than last years. Jefferson and Dice look like they have never seen a basketball, nor a bball court. Holt is bound to be pissed about now.
Piss drunk more like.
Even when Blair was bad, the effort was still there.
It's hard to tell where the rest of the Spurs head's were.
It's about heart the "entire" game not just in spurts or at the end of the game. If we would have scored a couple more points in the first quarter maybe we could have won it but.... who knows too many maybes.
And speaking of heart, I really took this game to heart. I know it's stupid because it is still early in the season but the only good thing I can see from the lost is to give Blair more playing time the rest of the season. But that's just me.
Hey mate,
I agree with everything you've said and for some reason I also took this loss hard. I know it's December, but I really thought we could get this game. I am also excited to see what Blair can do next game now. He is the only guy who showed up the whole game. TD turned it up late as well. I can't really say much about any of the other guys out there.
Many more games like this and Holt may take up drinking again. Let's hope not, though. Pop needs to start kicking ass like he used to do. The babysitting days are over with.
It's part of the reason why I've wanted a Blair/Hill/Hairston bench rotation for a while..these young, energy guys are tough, they get inside and play tough, and they always give 100% effort..
It's hard with the older guys sometimes..
To me, it's amazing what an incredible driver energy and hunger is... at some point late in the game when Blair cut the lead to 4 points, the entire arena stood up and you could feel the energy there... and it changes the complexion of the game.
I think that's what we missed the most from a guy like Manu. And I think Blair is that kind of energy guy also.
I'm hoping Blair can light a fire under McDyess. Dice makes it look like the Celtics got the right Piston when they went after Sheed. Dice has been as big a disappointment as has Jefferson.
McDyess might want to try a little harder from now on.
Yep...too bad Pop can't see what we see.
I can't fault those two guys because I have not seen any effort whatsoever to integrate them into the team. I'm sure they're getting an earful about where they should rotate on defense, but offensively, I have seen nothing run for them. It's difficult for me to believe that not one, but two guys that played well over 25 mpg and averaged double figures in scoring would fall off a cliff so much. At some point you have to look for the reason somewhere else.
What the heck has Pop had the team doing with these four days off? There is way too much confusion on the part of everyone from Pop on down. We at times look like the Keystone Kops.
I'll go for that!
Duncan had 16 adn 15 too, he showed up tonight, sides that? Not much else with Blair getting alot.
Yeah I totally thought we would get this game as well. But as soon as it started I felt we were in trouble. It's like the bench was our only saving grace this game. Besides Duncan of coarse, I don't think I can ever say anything bad about him, he always brings it even if he isn't thumping his chest after ever play....
I can't hardly ever call out Tim, like you said he brings it 99% of the time when he is able to. I really wanted this game though and it was a tough loss. As bad as we played we still could have won it. Frustrating to see the guys play this bad.
Blair was awesome, but you can't rely on hustle play alone to win games. Not something you can count on consistently. I really want to see Blair play well next game though and get more minutes. Spurs need someone to light a fire under their asses.
I couldn't agree more! Although I think we actually could have pulled this game off if we had more hustle plays from everyone. That would negate some of the turnovers.
But then again I don't think it would have done about the missed free throws.... lol
Damn that was atrocious, I just had a bad feeling every time we were at the line tonight.
any spur that scores for the other team loses 100 faith points straight up
i was high on blair but the honeymoon is steadily ending.
