Neal on Jack down the stretch. Scored 3 consecutive baskets.
Going to Timmy against Bogut in the post. This is a bad matchup for us.
That's what got GS back into the game down the stretch in the 4th.
IMO it's more tired legs than anything. Too quick a turnaround, early away game, etc.
Duncan was done, Pop overplayed him but is understandable, he was amazing on D. Parker is hurt. Manu had no legs. Kawhi choked.
IMO game 5 is the game that will decide the series. Still got SPurs in 6 as I predicted before this series started.
Don't get the infatuation with Neal over Joseph when we have a lead... Props to Jack though
It all went wrong early in the 4th. To start the 4th, Spurs finally attacked and Splitter and Leonard dominated the paint on offense. Then Pop takes out Splitter and puts in Neal. First play Neal gives up a 3 point play and all momentum gained was lost. Neal and Pop lost this game. Neal should never see the floor again.
Wow, you so obviously didn't watch the game. Gary Neal created mismatches in the Warrriors' favor on both ends, and he got extended minutes from Pop. The game went to overtime, you know.IMO it's more tired legs than anything. Too quick a turnaround, early away game, etc.

you obviously did not watch Duncan dragging himself and barely having energy to shoot up the bricks in the 4th.
Spurs were tired. Watch the post game conferences and you will hear all of them say they got tired.
Neal needs to ride the pine!
it all went wrong in the 1st quarter. pathetic ing basketball. Warriors shoot like , get their big men in early foul trouble, and we start shooting jumpers. what ing show. if we drop this series it was done in this game. you cannot give away games like that.
It went wrong when we gave up 48 offensive rebounds and missed half of our free throws. That's it.
It all went wrong when Pop inexplicably put Duncan in the game with 10 minutes remaining in the fourth. Terrible coaching decision.
yep, the pick and roll with splitter was murdering them. mark jackson made a sub, pop panicked and that's when our offense died. pop lost the game. neal is what he is, it's not his fault he's being thrown in there to guard people he's not capable of guarding.
Not having a better option for Barnes than Neal was fatal as well.
Why does every other team get two days between a game 4 games into the series but the Spurs don't? I'm got damn sick of the NBA bull . No excuse, should always be 2 days between games 2-3 and then 2 days between games 6-7. It should be law for every series.
Agree with this, Neal is what he is. Can't complain when he gives up buckets to Jarrett Jack, we all know he is a bad defender. It's on Pop for asking him to do things he isn't good at.
Neal on the floorPERIOD
the winner of game 5 in a tied series wins the series something like 85%
11 missed free throws.
Utterly devastating loss. GS did everything imaginable to give the Spurs this game.
I dunno, seemed pretty obvious where it all went wrong.
Spurs were tired. Missing free throws and shots is a result of having no legs or energy. They just had nothing in them tonight. Not sure why Pop kept 'em in, it was obvious since the last half of the 4th quarter. Why keep 'em in and risk injuries...get some people in there with fresh legs.
This is what happens when your Superstars get old...you have to rest them, or risk them having nothing at end of game.
Sloppy and inconsistent shooting throughout the game. Plus nobody could seem to make a free throw or grab a rebound. Despite all this, we still led through most of the game,. The Spurs just gave it away. We had it. Come Game 5, we should be rejuvenated by the fans and ready to play.
I've never been so pissed at Pop as I am right now. Ignore what Marc Jackson does, do what works! Spurs attacked and got the bigs in foul trouble in the first half, and the re ed Spurs settled for jumpshots the entire second half outside of the brief period in the beginning of the 4th when the Spurs ran the pick & roll. Absolutely horrible, Spurs were ice cold, what stupid thought went through their mind that made thing think settling for jumpshots was how they would win this game?!
exactly as I saw it. But thing is Duncan + Co were doing a monster job on D that's why Pop couldn't take them out.
I would have given Duncan a couple minutes breather and inserted Splitter. IMO
Yep. That and the refs giving the ball to GS
They were tired, no doubt, but that game should never have gone to OT. Gary Neal's defense is putrid, but that should come as no surprise to anyone who watches this team.
I really can't understand what happend with Splitter. We saw Pop torching his ass when made him riding he pine and never put in again; instead we saw Neal fu**g up all our momentum.
