Gregg Popovich on Tim Duncan’s blocks on sunday :
“I think he was trying to catch Hakeem on the one play.”
Time for G-Hill to step up.
George Hill is very good when he stays within what he does best (defense, corner three, fast break). Distrbuting the ball as a PG is not one of them.
The game actually turned back in our favor against Memphis when Pop went to Quinn who knows how to pass the ball. The key to backup PG is actually Neal who has shown to be more effective when passing the ball than Hill.
I think Manu would be the one to pass the ball. Hill, Neal and Anderson should take more shots.
Will Neal play??
If we can get Neal to play as aggressive as he did the last time he came out then we'll be fine on initiating the offense. Neal was shooting, driving and passing like he was still playing for Pallacanestro. Nice to see again.
And despite the shooting woes, Manu's passing has always been on. Those two will run the offense while Hill and Quinn are stand-in's at the PG position.
he's had some woeful turnovers, and some amazing dishes - but if manu is running the point, he'll have to be more consistent IMO. he shouldn't go for the killer pass on every play if he's going to play a higher volume at point because that's just gonna mean high turnover numbers.
With Manu, you never can tell what he's gonna do with the ball. Most of the time, its good for the spurs. Sometimes, you can just scratch your head because of a silly turnover by Manu.
time for EVERYONE to step up
including the Front Office!
Spurs, please get additional personnel,
this year's playoffs will be incredible
the teams are oh, so close
we need every edge we can have!
This could be another huge game for Manu. He's averaging 25 points this season against Memphis.

Referee Assignments
Tue. Mar. 1
San Antonio @ Memphis: Bavetta; Rodney Mott; Josh Tiven
Let's get 50 tonight!
Hard to believe we were scrapping to keep the streak alive last season, and now we're pushing it on the first day of March.
so hill starts at PG and the rest of the lineup is same?
Does not matter who starts - Hill gives a good 20-25 minutes and Manu,Neal and Quinn handle it from there.
Parker going down will be a blessing for Anderson. He and Neal should get plenty of time.
I forsee a lot of Chris Quinn and Novak tonight
Oh...that's just...great...![]()

Pop to @M_Monroe_in_SA on Neal/Splitter: "They're cleared to play. I'll decide tonight if I want to play them." http://bit.ly/dRF4TZ
Neal back in the rotation tonight. Tiago time tomorrow.
Hopefully, TPs injury is the catalyst to our defense going up a couple of notches.
timmy needs 6 more blocks to pass robert parish at 9th on the all time blocks list.....
parish is at 9 with 2361 and timmy is tied with zo at 10th with 2356......
bookmakers: Spurs 1.85 1.75 Memphis
