The turnover was horrible, but the foul was the right play. The foul against Nowitzki wasn't because he was going for a block instead of trying to make him earn the two points at the free throw line.Yeah, all is fine and good cause the Spurs won.
Spurs players never deserved to be called out becausethey've given us so much over the years, especially Manu, with his "big balls" and "giant heart." Go Spurs Go!
If anyone acts like a GNSF, it's you. You essentially treat the Spurs like Lakersground treats Kobe. Unconditional worship.
That ain't my style. Sorry.
Manu ed up in '06. Refs ed up today.
Dont see the point in playing the blame game, Red Mamba and Kawhi missed two wide open threes that wouldve sealed the game. MVParker missed a layup and some shots he was knocking down earlier. happens man, its pretty unrealistic to expect the Spurs to hold on to comfortable leads on a very good Grizz team in the WCF...theyre bound to make some runs. Just be glad they pulled it off, two more games imo.
did you really expect them to? some people just can't control themselves over a game
Who knows?
Thus the qualifier "probably." I do know with certainty that Tim Duncan and the Spurs organization would've been good enough to win a couple of les had Manu never existed (post '03). My essential point, I guess, is that Duncan is really the only irreplaceable component in that equation.
Yeah, no.Yeah, all is fine and good cause the Spurs won.

You're just an emo GNSF who constantly changes his opinion of players on a per game basis.
I'm the first one to call Manu's brain farts like that Dirk foul and that three he attempted against GS in game 1 of the second round but this time I would have done the same. That may be a flagrant now with this pussified rules but in the good old NBA days (the days Manu spent most of his career) that wasn't a flagrant and it really shouldn't be now either.
Without having Ginobili killing overseas they probably panic and overpay Derek Anderson, and are then stuck with a crippling contract like the one they were saddled with after trading for Charles Smith in the late 90s. I agree that Duncan is the only irreplaceable player, but it takes a lot to win a le.
Why is it the right play?
26 seconds left. Up by 4. Why even risk the chance of a 3 point play happening or the situation that occurred? Manu lets him dunk it, the game likely comes down to freethrows, with the absolute worst case scenario being Memphis has a game tying/winning opportunity with 1-2 seconds left.
If it was a minute left in the game, different story. But I disagree fouling in that situation was the right play because of the different things that can happen, one of which we saw first hand.
agree with this. i had no problem with the foul, ihad a problem with how the officiating turned in the second half. 26 FTs for a physical team that gets away with a lot while we were stuck with 13 and forced to play pussy ball at times.
btw FkLa you going balls deep on Parker or you still a hater? Parker was great this game, i can't complain other than some typical heroball , but he was really amazing today. still, i gotta stay true to my hater side.
Fair enough.
You keep worshiping. And I'll keep "emo-ing."
I got an idea. Why don't you stop making got ass emo threads and we won't have to try to forget your got ass emo threads.
midnightpulp have to agree with you on this thread
turnoboli is nothing more than a clown interested in sportscenter plays ahead of the teams objective
im done putting up with this clown protecting him and propping him up against the french wankers and their frog king parker...
both are 2 piece of tbh
Question for all of you: Do you think Manu played a bad game? I actually liked how Manu played today but I wanna check if it isn't just my homer side doing the reasoning.
Allen's a good FT shooter.
Manu got outflopped plain and simple he'll learn and respond. He;s just not used to being outflopped
It was a good foul, Allen isn't a good FT shooter. So you're left with 2 options. Let them score an easy 2 or prevent the 2 and put pressure on an unrelieable FT shooter.
The fact that he fell down and pretended to be hurt swayed the call to a flagrant, that's what hurt us. Not the foul, the wrong call.
Now if you're going to blame him for turning it over in the first place that's a different story. But the good hard foul was the right move, Allen sold the foul and the officials bought it.
he played ok, not ty and not great. definitely not something to meltdown about. spurs got the win, time to rest, focus on the next game, and try to come out of Memphis split 1-1
Dude, why do you even post in my threads?
You're like a in' fanatical Christian defending insults against Jesus (which makes sense I guess given your worship of the Spurs).
Insubstantial emo threads shouldn't even register on your radar, being the awesome BNSF you are, and at most they should garner a chuckle, but you feel compelled to post in them and "tell me a thing or two."
Why?
it definitely should've been just a regular foul and Manu was right for fouling him, as it's better than giving up a free basket. it's just no one would expect that flopping to writhe on the floor as if he was having a seizure while someone skull ed his eye sockets
Much better response than:
"Quit acting like a GNSF and insulting my Spurs. They don't deserve it!"
I dont know man, Im confused. Both of us know about his past history but I just want to believe in him and be wrong about him so bad.
for the most part, i was okay with it. Manu is a stubborn mother er, sometimes smart, sometimes dumb as . but it seems he is slowly realizing he can't do thigns the same and isn't forcing as much. I had no huge complaints.
What's that now?
