Rise Little Phoenix Rise.
When Tony got carried off the court, he was helped by Dedmon and... Murray.
Odd coincidence or an omen?
Many strange happenings during the game.
Mills flop.
Anderson on fire.
Danny lights out to start.
KL having stealthily a monster game till the 4th.
Mills spin juke on Beverley.
Beverley again in the vicinity of knee injury. Feel bad for Tony, looks serious. Hope just an mcl sprain.
Harden gets elbowed for real, after he and Aldridge hold raised hands while they wait to see if the shot goes in. I laughed so heartily.
Simmons 4 straight points then starts the 4th quarter as the Pf?
(Ps I wore my 2014 Championship hat and Leonard shirt with the striped numbers under my chef coat. Kawhi got cut in the game on his hand.., about the same time I cut my hand at work. I didn't find out till later when I watched a recording of the game Weird.)
So Parker and Anderson are great PNR defenders?
beverly should have received a flagrant the next trip up the floor after that mills spin. The next possession, he pushed mills hard in the back then helped him up to cover himself. That er is dirty
I'd rather them start Murray and try to survive off the other four (or three and Green) until the bench comes in. Manu and Kyle don't make a great wing set against Houston. Would rather Kyle play the four when Ryan is in.
I was thinking that it might be that, if that is the case then he may be out 9 months. Murray may be the starter next season, with Mills hopefully back too.
"They aint gonna rook us"
Oh wait
I think problem is that Murray hasn't played well since recovering from injury.
I'm all for Murray getting minutes but he would easily be the smallest guy on the floor. Houston can post him up with everyone, so it would mean a lot of having to come double team then squirming around until Houston gets an open 3-pointer.
Isn't he 6'5 tbh?
Not really their style of play, tbh.
Small as in skinny, I meant.
The Kid is long and more athletic, I think he will give rockets PG's problems. They'll be in for a surprise!
Not their style to find ways to open up the 3-point line?
Pop will probably start Mills.
Then use the big guard lineup w/ Manu, Simmons, Kawhi if he goes traditional. If Pop goes small, I can see Manu, Simmons, Kawhi, Bertans, Gasol/LA.
Those expecting Murray to " get the keys" or to get a significant role from the start are going to be disappointed.
I do think, however, Pop will give Murray little burn on a short leash just to see how he handles it. He will have to if he elects to go small for >= half the game.
TP has the most remarkable healing abilities of any athlete in history.
He's literally indestructible.
But if it's an ACL, he'll have to channel Dejuan Blair to play anytime soon . . .
Based from what I saw yesterday, I think his shooting is not there yet. But, his quickness and dribble penetration are there to create quality shots for teammates.
Even if his shooting is not there yet, what you're saying is ridiculous.
Based on the one jumper he attempted last night?
My goodness.
Have faith, Spurs have the best coaching staff. They will know what to do. Popovich kept Murray as the 3rd pt guard for a reason. He may start to keep the bench rotation, but play with limited minutes, and funnel everything thru kawhi as a point forward. Everyone is a professional at this point, no rookie mentally in the playoffs. Murray has had a limited run in garbage time, so the butterflys may come but will soon pass. Someone needs to step up, it wont be lamarcus he has proven he can't, ginobili and Pau are willing but the body says otherwise, simmons and kyle are too inconsistent, it will come down to Patty.....he needs 20 pts a game at leas#Go Spurs Go!!!
Its official, TP is a now legend in every sense of the word. Throw Murray into the fire!!!!
I am starting to think Kyle is in the doghouse and done for the season too at this rate tbh.
