That's a nice picture...

The Spurs had their chances. They had the game by the throat but were unable to finish the chokehold. That’s the difference between this team and former Spurs teams.

There's not much else for sportswriters to reiterate. We have the talent and now we have the health; what we need is the cohesion, and on both ends. Whether or not that will come is still up in the air.
seems like san an leads through the whole game and then in the final 3 minutes, the other team surges and beats them by 3 or 4. why can't the spurs trail the entire game and then pull it out. they used to do that. i used to sweat out most of the games and then in the final few minutes, they'd pull it out. miss those days![]()
Video highlight; Manu's miss included:
Crunch time X's and O's by a master
Offensive foul, technically.

Aldridge's left hand on Manu's body could technically be a foul too.
The players that keep suffering the most mental laspes on D are George Hill and Richard Jefferson. They just dont seem to be very alert, even more-so after stoppages.
This was one of the most frustrating losses I've ever been through as a Spurs fan.
Glad you weren't around for the '90's...
