Four rings, bidchess!
Dear Pop,
You gave up last game with 3:15 to go down by 11 with a player at the line shooting two free throws. Tonight, you were down 9 with less than a minute to go and came within a Ginobili pass to a wide open McDyess of forcing overtime.
Feel our wrath.
Sincerely,
Gods of Basketball
Four rings, bidchess!
I bet Kori is happy they lost instead of another fluke win.
I was cheering for a fluke win the closing seconds.
I'm hoping the GoBs go Old Testament and demand the sacrifice of a favored son.
It's been nice knowing yah Bonner.
Damn LJ... cold way to rub salt in the wounds.
Doc made Pop look re ed tonight. Some of Doc's play calls were very impressive. Good luck trying to figure out what plays the Spurs were trying to run.
This thread brought to you by lakaluva's month long exile from the NBA forum.
I'd rather the Spurs lose without the ending heroics, it only angered me more.
I just replayed the picknroll play to dice. Big baby locked him up and dice missed 1 of 2 FTs. Spurs still lose. Oh well.
Props to the players for listening to the message sent yesterday and really playing hard nosed defense today
What's even more ironic is that some Spurs fans said it was right to quit last game because the Knicks were shooting too well. Tonight, the Celtics were shooting even better and the Spurs erased the lead in less than one-third of the time.
And this was against a championship contender ... not a D'Antoni squad.
On the last play . . . Manu looked for Dyess, but he was doubled by Daniels and Pierce. No clear passing lane. Then Baby had him covered.
What did it end at? 60%? 62%
Actually, tonight the game was tied at the end of Popregulation and the Celtics won in Popovertime.
The Gods are angry. Someone must be sacrificed to appease them. lol
Baby was busy battling Duncan, Dice walked INTO big baby towards the end. He was open the whole way though. If Manu doesn't wait and passes to Dice, Dice would of had an open jumper or have gone to the rim, baby would have to peel off Duncan to defend Dice leaving Duncan rolling to the rim for a dunk if passed too.
Tonight was a complete and utter fluke. Ray Allen missing two free throws? 2 late steals with no foul calls?
I don't really care either way. The Spurs had played great defense up until this point and I was sure that Spurstalk would implode at the first sign of a losing streak.
I don't mind. We deserved to lose both games. This team needs to wake the up and start playing compe ive D. Pop needs to wake the up and fix his idiotic rotations. We richly deserve these and any future losses till we improve the D. The record is fool's gold. Executing in the last 2 minutes and getting lucky with a win at the end would have extended our bad habits.
Apparently Udoka wasn't enough.
