2014 Playoffs - Round 2, Game 5 - San Antonio Spurs vs Portland Trailblazers

[Dverde]

They should put that Houston series on blu-ray for Portland. Pretend like there was no second round.

That doesn't make sense.

I made an infamous thread about two years ago led "Will Manu Ginobili ever score 20 points in a single game again?"

Manu scored 20 points numerous times since the inception of that thread and I received a lot of flack for it from Manu fans. uronobili's post was a sarcastic jab at my thread. However, uronobili curiously and perhaps subconsciously lowered the bar from 20 points to 10 points.

Put simply, instead of saying: "Hey, maybe I should make a thread led 'Will Manu Ginobili ever score 20 points in a single playoff game again?" uronobili said: "Hey, maybe I should make a thread led 'Will Manu Ginobili ever score 10 points in a single playoff game again?"

I'm laughing at the fact that he (perhaps subconsciously) lowered the bar from 20 points to 10 points because it's a testament to his diminished faith in Ginobili's abilities.

Did I cut that logic up into bite-sized pieces for you, or are you too much of a cognitive peon to understand that?

there it is... token Bonner 3 pointer

I don't think they meant that we couldn't win a game or two or three without him…but we won't win the next series if he can't play. The next series is harder than this one, and we are getting more and more tired, which increases the likelihood of injury of just the type Parker has. So we can get out of this game and need to. Because he needs to really really rest before the next series.

I actually meant people on our, Slovenian forums. They are a bunch of smartasses.

Stotts and Matthews on post game: We tied the first quarter!

Way to go Spurs . What a turn around from the first round and this was about the worst beatdown of a good team in the playoffs you will ever see. It was a completely dominate series with an insane average margin of victory. Is this the highest ever MOV in a 7 game series???

People look at the micro... but looking at the macro, this was a thorough beatdown... even without Tony for the last game
