Blame Memphis for tanking, and Pop for giving games up...
You know if we'd have finished second we'd have been just as ed.
I'm counting on the unique ability of the Clippers to fold in the next two quarter.
They can lead by 30 and still lose a game by the end of it so I'm not that worried.
And Manu is hurt. Because we know that injuries never linger with Manu.
Awesome move Pop.
Memphis isn't even trying, 26% shooting.
mother in New Orleans. No David West.
what kind of practice 1st round is that??
La gets NO, Dallas
Spurs Memphis, okc/nuggets
We gave them the easy road.
If we had won the game yesterday they could be the 3rd or 4th seed.And surely Memphis would be playing tonight to be the 7th instead of tanking
Pop was afraid of the Lakers but now if we reach the Finals we'll find the Lakers well rested after an easy road
Fuking brilliant
Injuries can and will happen at any given time. That's why the best coach in the league understands they're part of the game, he doesn't try to micromanage that , and plays to win every game.
So Phil played Bynum, he got injured, and now they have an easy 1st round where they won't need him and he'll have time to heal...
It's not a matter of luck when you play to lose like we did yesterday
he's CIA Pop. Anyone who is surprised he playing mind games must not know Pop.
does noone remember the hack a shaq?? thats goddam Pop
NO and Dallas have players that have actually won many playoff series, opposed to.....anyway, i understand your point, even though it's unfounded....dont understand why everyone here is so scared of OKC
dallas would actually be a worse match up for the spurs simply because they have tyson chandler to give duncan all sorts of struggle. also, no one on the spurs, as usual, can guard dirk. i believe the spurs have swept the thunder this year and last year (maybe). they did not have perkins but the thunder always seem to play poorly against the spurs.
as for getting memphis first, that is bad. it's going to be harder than most people realize. they have tony allen and battier to tire out parker and gionbili. randolph and marc gasol will also give the thin front line of the spurs a lot of trouble. just a bad match up altogether. meanwhile the lakers get to breeze through the first round by sweeping the hornets.
The worst part is that the big3 didn't play yesterday because Pop is afraid of the Lakers.To avoid injuries was not the reason.
So i guess Pop's hopes to win the championship are on Hornets and Mavs
I really wish the Spurs would have wiped the floor w/ the Lakers last night and made a SA-Dallas matchup that much more likely
Lakers are only up by 8 vs Sacramento at halftime so it is a lil to early to say they have an easier road...Dallas could wind up playing NO.....Lakers can wind up playing Portland if they lose....
it would be fitting for sactown to give one last middle finger to the lakers before they move.
Dirk's gearing up for the playoffs. Instead of fading away he's stepping toward the basket and drawing contact. The Mavericks were really really good the last time he started doing that. The Lakers are also extremely beatable. All the Spurs have to do is take care of their business. If they're going to go down due to injuries then the matchups don't really matter.
In a world of spurstalk we just complain.
The Gasols planned that .
If we beat LA you would have been two and LA third! We would still get OKC in the playoffs man! They would be 4th... Come on bro.
This is why I wanted Pop to go after last night's game. The Lakers could've fell to the number 4 seed. And to me the Lakers are more vulnerable in the WCSF than the WCF. Don't tell me that Pop sat the starters for rest, he did it because he was terrified at the thought of losing to the Lakers before the playoffs and to keep them away from that 4 seed.
If the the last two games on the schedule had been Minnesota and Phoenix, then Pop would've played the starters last night and rested them against Phoenix.
