Sure, they made some fluke shots... but at worse they would have shot 50%... on the road... it's just not acceptable...
Spurs in 6.
Manu sits, and Memphis plays the best game of their franchise history. Shooting 55% from the floor the entire game and their bigs dropped 50/25 on our frontcourt. Yet we still had a chance to win the game!!! It sucks and it's extremely frustrating but if you really think Memphis is going to win this series and your not named Charles Barkley....please....

They got pushed around for 48 minutes. Plain and simple. I get a little tired of the shot to the lower back and seeing guys flying out of bounds after a Memphis put back.
Memphis was going to win at least a game. This was it.
the 50/25 from the grizzlies is no fluke. the spurs don't have a front line capable of competing with them.
I don't think we can match them, but I think we can make it more compe ive...
not panicking at all, however its sad to see our good players defend so well only to have others negate their efforts!! pop could make this so much easier.
This is the third time in a row the Spurs let the Grizzlies shoot 50+% and score over 100. Are the Spurs even capable? It doesn't , and hasn't, look like it. lol
Well, at least we proved for a good amount of the game that we can hang with Grizz on the boards which seemed like an impossibility after the last few meetings. Hopefully our bigs can stay out of foul trouble on defense and bang Gasol and especially Z-bo around a little more. Keep them away from the basket and shooting perimeter jumpers like they were earleir in the game.
Soooooo if the Spurs aren't winning this series how many games will it last???
Johnny, could your sig big any bigger? Geez
It could be, but that would just be silly,lol.
6 games...
even Jon Barry said "did Ginobili play? They'll be fine."
We'll win this series... I have little doubt about it... the concern is going forward...
Memphis cant play better than what they did today and I dunno if they Spurs can play worse....I mean if this was a 5 game series than shiiit we may be in trouble.
But if Manu is OK, which he MUST be. Then the Spurs should be ok and win in 6.
I agree it's not panic time (yet), but Spur fan logic is hilarious. Memphis didn't do anything special with regards to playing outside themselves. They have a front court advantage. That isn't changing.
Spurs got a very solid game from Tim, shot more free throws they they could have hoped for, had the game at home vs a team that had not won a playoff game and they lost.
End of story.
Oh that's a different story. I dont think we make it out the 2nd round, but you never know.
Uh Oh . . .
Also, one of the BIG 3 has to take the team by the balls and try to dominate or take over. IMO we need a Tony Finals MVP performance or a 1st half Duncan performance for the entire game. Somebody has to take over this series for the Spurs.
I believe Spurs are still winning this series, but they are sure being exposed as only being a decent team over being a great one.
I've seen that all season long.
im still shocked why rj didnt pass the ball to the red rocket
Memphis exploited Spurs weaknesses, its time for the Spurs to do the same to Memphis....let the chess match begin.
