wtf was bonner doing closing out games as usual...fkn pathetic from pop
I didn't like Pop rotation at all. I had the feeling to see the Grizz serie of last year.
I don't know wtf is wrong with Pop but Tiago 14 mn and Leonard 18 mn is not enough

Crazy how Danny Green went from training camp filler to the Spurs' starting SG. And he's no Keith Bogans or RMJ either.
This.
I'd like to believe that he has a master plan but in the past with Pop it hasn't worked that way.
Starters had a 20 minutes light workout against the Cavs who right now may be playing worse than the Bobcats.
Let's not play the b2b card.
We eked out a win but the Celtics had their way with us in the second half, I wouldn't be confident going in a PO series against this team with the current rotation.
tony and manu played like crap. timmy struggled offensively, but had our back on D with blocks and rebounds. this win really showed the team's strength:
they won without good games from any of the big 3, without 3-pt shooting and without getting to the line, away on a b2b, vs the hottest possible team.
as long as no one is injured, i am happy with the win, as i am sure the play would improve in the future.
If Tim is going to play 34 minutes, Tiago is going to play 14 minutes which are the 48 minutes in the game for that position. Unfortunately that's just the way it is.![]()
Tiago guarded KG and I'll bet that he's faster than Blair or Bonner in a foot race. If Gasol can guard power forwards so can Tiago.
This big rotation will be the team's ruin.
I don't even understand why amused would wake up on any morning for any day in his life and ever think it's his duty, right, or responsibility to start a game blog
So umm what's the status on TP?
on another note, i really hope ginobili can recover and become at least a mediocre defender. his +/- is entirely deserved as his man was doing most of the scoring. he can't stop the drive and cannot challenge the shot. the dude was a dead hand today - with 5 TOs on top.
Edit: can't wait for timvp's grades to hear how ginobili had a half-decent game and get a B-.
true.... ok, Leonard didn't play that good tonight, but Tiago just 14 minutes and not playing Diaw is ing stupid. Bonner and Neal did hit clutch shots, but if Bonner scored those open threes before we would be leading by 10 and Neal played like a moron. It looks like Pop is afraid of playing Tim and Tiago together. Closing games with Bonner or Blair is just pathetic. People here are talking that we'll have no problem against Memphis cause we are pumped up for them, but I wouldn't be that surprised if they kick our ass if we meet in the playoffs.
Usually I don't curse in front of the kids. During Spurs games I usually don't say anything. But after about the tenth "Mommy come here daddy say lotta lotta bad words" I had to start watching the second half with a towel in my mouth.
Perhaps Pop was resting Tiago/Diaw because he was planning benching Tim on Friday? That way he'd be available for both games of the b2b Sun/Mon?
Fingers crossed on TP...
We need to play Utah in the worst way...
This might be the best gut-it-out victory in a while. Last year's McDyess tip-in winner against the Lakers was the last time a win felt like this.
And we're pretty damn lucky the Celtics were horrible from the line.
Is that yall's new shtick? ing about who starts game blogs?
The only thing more annoying than the fact that it happens is that people so quickly just accept it as reality and move on. It's ing stupid. We all agree on that, right? Well, other than T Park.
Ugly, ugly throwback Spurs win. But I'll take it.The Spurs have to learn how to win these kind of games now to prepare them for the playoffs...
Been around for a long time, cuz.
sounds like me. Gets to the point no one wants to watch the game in the same room as me.
Tony keep playing after that play with Bradley. He was benched after the timeout with 2:34 to go. I think he's fine
I don't ever remember it being this bad. I usually don't notice CBF posts so I probably missed it. Hemann stands out for his own unique reasons though
I hope Amused starts every game blog for the rest of the season and postseason.
I also hope he starts them 2-3 days before the actual game.
