    It was awesome to see Pop yell "your wrong!!" right at the refs face live at the game. The officiating was so bad it had to be done before someone else got hurt.
    Hopefully Pop didn't yell out "your wrong" at the ref. I would hate to see someone being tossed out for bad spelling.

    I for one (that's probably not saying much) agree with the starting of Neal. If splitting hairs...his grade more of a C than D. And understandably so being his first starting gig since Ford's hamstring injury.

    However...I think it more important that (regardless who's going to start) it needs to be consistent from this moment on. And earlier in the season... Neal starting... was providing some of the best and most consistent unit numbers.

    That, along with the chemistry developing between Ginobili and Splitter, I think, needs to be taken into consideration as well. Give Neal a few games to reestablish what he provided prior to having to come off the bench AND keep the momentum going of what appears to be a great Ginobili / Splitter tandem.

    Better get used to it.The Spurs are tv ratings/NBA cancer.

    Ever since the ASG you can see the refs tightening up fouls on the Spurs at the end of quarters if they're ahead and blatantly not calling many fouls that the Spurs opposition commits.

    Leading to IMHO dangerously escalating physicality in certain parts of the game

    The last Denver game that Faried kid only had that game cause he wasn't being called for the foul machine that he is,dude was over-the-back of some Spur on almost every rebound he jumped for even threw Tiago right to the floor in front of a ref on one play,no call of course

    Spurs finals have been the WORST tv ratings of all time and if you dont think the NBA is a business that wants to make money...well you do the math and dont be surprised at what happens if the Spurs go far

    Matt Bonner C-
    The most entertaining game within the game was when Matt Bonner and Steve Novak matched up. It started off friendly but then eventually they both got chippy. At one point, the two marksmen traded forearm shivers and neither would give the other one anything resembling an open look. These might be the last two players you'd ever expect to start a mano-a-mano battle … but that's what happened. I guess they both take the le of the Best Three-Point Shooter in NBA History 6-foot-10-or-Taller seriously. (Currently, Novak is first at 42.9% and Bonner is second at 41.9% -- with Channing Frye a distant third at 39.4%.) Oh, and as for the game against the Knicks, Bonner didn't really do anything else of note other than tussle with Novak.
    The Bonner/Novak matchup is much more fun to watch than Bonner/Scalabrine.

    Not defending Bonner (no pun intended) but if Chandler was playing Tony may not have had as many points in the paint and would have had to kick out to the Red Rocket. He may have been more effective. Knicks still would have lost big, though.

    So Leonard is not (at least yeat) much of an asset on the defensive end? I mean from what I have seen he has better ball handling and 3 point shooting than advertised, but if he can't become a top defensive player his ceiling is really limited.

    Becoming a top defensive player takes time. There's a lot to adjust to in the NBA.

    I thought I might have been too harsh on Kawhi for his defense, then I saw this:

    In the 24:40 Kawhi was on the court, the Knicks scored 64 points.

    In the 23:10 Kawhi was on the bench, the Knicks scored 41 points.

    So what's up with this? Is his bread and butter gonna be more of a good offensive player who doesn't turn the ball over and commit fouls as opposed to the future Bruce Bowen?

    I've been limited to what games TNT and NBATV have shown so it's hard for me to get much of a snapshot of his game unfortunately.

    Jefferson needs a boot to the end of the bench, there's really no justification for his presence in the starting lineup anymore.

    Then Leonard takes his place, defensive problem solved.
    Ummm... were you watching? RJ had a very nice game, other than missing shots, which happens to everyone. Defense, rebounding, steals/near steals, high energy level... what's not to like?

    Hey I'm a huge Kawhi fan too but he's not ready to be the starter. Next year.... when he gets a summer of supervised work, plus a full training camp... watch out. He is going to seriously turn some heads in this league.

    Boy you're gullible. Jefferson gives effort maybe every 1 out 10 games it seems. Let's see if he can actually sustain this for a week before declaring him a good defensive player.

    And I'm not yet convinced that Leonard can't handle a starting role. He plays with a maturity far beyond his age as far as limiting mistakes and dumb fouls. Defensively he did improve the team earlier in the year when he was put in as a starter. I'm not entirely sure what happened after that, but I remember the spurs defense improved immediately and stayed improved for several weeks.

    I don't go around just looking for your posts to read. But that would explain your crappy takes.

    I've read every single Timvp grade thread, and I feel that's almost as good as watching a game tbh.

    No way,you get far more outta watching the games than reading someone elses description.Try to watch in HD on a large screen if at all possible.

    I've seen a lot of live NBA and if you just want to really "see" a game there's nuthin' like HD on a large 70" and up screen
