2014 Playoffs - Round 1, Game 2 - Dallas Mavericks @ San Antonio Spurs

Yet you seemingly think the Spurs have clearly made it a point to focus their entire defense on stopping Harris?

They seemingly haven't made it a point to stop anyone so far.

When Pop puts green on Harris, I'll feel better.

I'll agree with you on that but let me do you one better. I say Pop starts Manu and have Green come off the bench and match up with Harris.

Sheeet, when Pop does anything, I'll feel better.

Something's gotta change. This is a carbon copy me of last years series with GS, I expect it to end the same.

Last year's GS team is a lot better than this years Mavs, tbh.

And Chuck s on Spurs, per par. Shaq and Kenny tried to be the voices of reason but once Chuck has a thought, he sticks to it.

True story..

The way the first two games have gone, it feels eerily similar to the 2006 series between these two teams.

I don't see how you can be mad at Chuck. Right now, he definitely looks more right than wrong. He's not sitting there as a fan looking for excuses, he's watching the game. 99% of this forum has already been proven wrong by predicting and "easy" series or a "sweep".

It already has been a very tough series and Spurs have been outplayed & out coached. RC had a clear game plan that was very well thought out and Pop has made zero adjustments. It's not over obviously, but again, looking down the road, if this terrible defensive Mavs team can make life hard on SA with this strategy, what will a more elite defense like OKC do?

Then you obviously werent a Spurs fan in 05' when the Spurs got wiped out by Detroit in Games 3 and 4..

I'm talking about this year's playoffs... and I've been a Spurs fan since I was 12. That was in 1989. You were probably just a twinkle in your father's eye at that time.

Carslile's pulling a CIA Pop. His defensive gameplan is alot different from the regular season. It makes sense. Take out the role players and force the Spurs big 3 to beat you.

what else is new.. only good for regular season .. Spurs is lucky to be 1-1. they should be 0-2 now. Charles B is right , these guys are old and aint got chance.. After Game 2 , the more it looked like Game 1 was a fluke win.. anyone???
