I saw this also. Very hesitant and indecisive.
LMA needs to go quick in order to be effective.
The pump-fakes and dribbling around followed by a fade-away 20 footer is ineffective.

He needs to get with TD and learn how to pass out of the double team. He has to make them pay for doubling.
Closing moments of the games he had some bad moments
Agreed. Lma and Kawhi were doing damage but it's asking too much for Aldridge to shoulder the load against a team like gsw alone when Kawhi went out
What with the All Caps OP?
Patty probably is the one we should be pointing a finger at. He's the point guard, he's the one who should have steadied the offense during that horrible run Golden State went on. And he came up small as a scoring guard too. Hopefully a 1 game aberration for mills.
Shhh....Or people would say it's "irrational hate"
He was what 4-13 overrall in 2nd half?

Patty was bad, no doubt. But they called LMA's number a lot more than Patty in those minutes. LMA was the Spurs' go to guy in the 2nd half, didn't perform well.

IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO CONVEY THE EMOTION I'M FEELING ACROSS A MESSAGE BOARD. I AM A YELLER IN REAL LIFE. I AM USUALLY THE CENTER OF ATTENTION AT BUFFALO WILD WINGS OR OTHER SPORTS BARS. I LIVED IN SOCAL MOST OF MY LIFE AND I ALWAYS LET EVERYBODY IN THE JOINT KNOW I WAS A SPURS FAN. I WAS ALWAYS READY TO FIGHT EVERYONE AND EVERY LAKER FAN AT ONCE. I STILL AM THE SAME WAY.
What were you in the bing for, my ?
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE BING??? I ALWAYS ENJOY A LOT OF YOUR TAKES HARLEM. I AM ALSO A HARDCORE WCW FAN. BOOKER T IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES NEXT TO STING.
First half, LA was attacking the rim...Second half, he was fading away from contact, and being indecisive with his movements, leading to turnovers, etc...They are small...Pound them down low, then if u miss, get the rebound...Put them in foul trouble...Dont bail them out with fadeaways if u were missing then the entire game
The problem for LMA is that he has some REALLY ty conditioning. His energy depletes very quickly (he's out of shape by NBA standards) and he tends to get worse as the game goes on.
The first half is the exception; the second half, the rule. He has always shied away from contact and shot fade-aways rather than going strong to the hole. That's LMA.
With the exception of game 6 vs Houston, LMA has been a disappointment in the playoffs.
I don't see that changing unfortunately. He's a bit of a head case with his timid fadeaways.
After Kawai went down the whole teams composure was off. Started rushing shots & turning it over, la included.
Patty like bill pointed out should of steadied the ship.
Intensity LMA showed in first half disappeared in 2nd half
