Play like they did in the second half but do it the entire game
Given that, we still can't get through Round 1

Bring lube
Mills Manu Green Boris Splitter
^wish we were getting more from this lineup tbh manu shows up and some flashes from splitter but mills green and boris are mia and don't even mention belineli.
True that the Spurs are scoring fine, but Green is only a threat behind the arc and has little playmaking ability making him an easy cover for the Mavs. It is much harder for Dallas to switch pick and rolls if the Spurs have multiple players who are a slashing threat. Dallas runs a capable offense and score fine with or without Green playing. I don't think the Spurs will lose too much by giving Manu the start.
Green got pulled by Pop the next time we had the ball after he came down in the first quarter and shot a three pointer with about 20 seconds left on the shot clock and no spurs in position to rebound. I noticed it at the time and figured it was punishment.
I am not in favor of Manu starting in place of Green because I believe, like others have mentioned, that Tony and Manu on the floor at the same time leads to inefficiencies in both the first and second units. But we need one or the other of them on the floor at ALL times…none of this "Mills, Green,Diaw,Bellinelli and ______(fill in Splitter, Ayres or Bonner).
scared to think dirk hasn't even gotten hot yet
spurs= fcked
Having rested all of our starters more than any starters in the league for the entire season, if Pop is not willing to allow them to play at least three quarters each ( minimum of 36 minutes per) at this point, then they forfeited their chances at career stat padding for nothing.
I still believe that we will win this series.
Remember that this is how good all the Western conference teams are.
more Leonard and Parker pick and roll
The only adjustments I'd like to see is mix up the coverage on Ellis, shorter leash on Mills/Beli, more time for Green...
I don't think Manu should start yet. But the Spurs are getting killed in the 2nd quarter and that needs to be fixed somehow.
Manu was up to 33 minutes last game, tbh. Timmy 36, Kawhi 38. Tony, 33, but Pop kind of benched him down the stretch.
I agree that this series will still be won by the Spurs, tbh, though I'm worried about round #2.
More offense on Calderon and Monta.
More post-up plays for Kawhi.
Less Danny Green, more Manu.
I'd run a screen n roll or two for Green/Splitter early as well tbh. It involves their two worst defenders and it had its moments during the regular season
According to Spurs social media, the Spurs did not practice today but had meetings and spoke to the media.
Just saw that on my FB feed. Pop waving the white flag.
There is only one strategy. Dont lose.
lets hope there's no more bs fluke shots like vince carter's 3pt shot....
Um... What.
Probably not a bad idea for our elders to just get some rest for tomorrow. No need to run them into the ground with more practice, tbh. Manu played 33 minutes and Timmy played 36, Kawhi 38, etc., tbh........
Yeah, but I just wish the non-elders got some practice in.
At least get out there and take some shots.
