Duncan wasn't 100 %
tp could hardly walk in some of the off days against the mavs
name one player who is
duncan was 90% healthy
I would say 75.13 %
And yet he toyed with Mavs' bug men
At 100%, there is gonna even more toying
This was the most boring close game that I've ever attended. I thought I was going to fall asleep in the first half
Timmy getting posterized by Manu was funny.
Fin had another good showing.
I wish Parker had sat out and rested his back - he says it's tight but that he'll be okay.
Let's get to the playoffs already.
Hmm.. I wonder if they'll show that highlight of Manu's put back dunK??This was the most boring close game that I've ever attended. I thought I was going to fall asleep in the first half

I think these games are just in the way of the playoffs now!!
Two more weeks!!
actually yeah, Parker had back to back 30 games...no reason to single him out today.
now I am a little wary about his posts...
oh well, just ignore those biased posts
Could you describe the action?
Thanks!
So, Manu was driving to the basket, and Timmy couldn't see him coming because of Brad Miller's fat assCould you describe the action?
Thanks!
Manu yelled :" get out of the way Timmy!"
Timmy replied : " Qué ? "
Manu yelled again : "watch out!!!!"
Timmy : "Qué ????"
Then posterization
Hahhaha... so he dunked on both Brad Miller + Tim!
Anyway, Tim should've gotten used to this after the last Olympics
hope TP will just be okay.
what is this news that Brent Barry banged his head again? why he kept banging his head against other players
------------------------------
from Express News
There is something about the Sacramento Kings that gives Spurs guard Brent Barry a headache.
For the third time this season, and the second time against the Kings, Barry banged heads with an opposing player and required the attention of trainer Will Sevening.
This time it was Kings guard Kevin Martin who cracked noggins with Barry with 1:27 left in the Spurs' 109-100 victory Wednesday at the AT&T Center.
At least Barry did not require s ches to close a wound this time around. When he butted heads with Kings guard Ronnie Price on Nov. 19 in Sacramento, he needed two layers of s ches, nine on top and three under the skin, to close a gash.
"They call me 'Bones' for a reason," said the slender veteran. "There's not much between my skin and my skeletal system."

next stop @ Minnesota and no KG
funny was Tim's reaction after the gameCould you describe the action?
Thanks!

After Parker missed a short jump shot late in the second quarter, Ginobili flashed to the rim and jammed the rebound — over Duncan's head.
"I had no idea who it was until I turned around and there was a white jersey hanging on my shoulders," Duncan said. "It was supposed to be my rebound. He's supposed to be my teammate. He's supposed to be my boy.
"That's fine. I'll get him back. I don't know when it's going to be, but I'll get him back."

haha, that's great. thanks for relaying that! I love these guys.
Yes, he had a great scoring night against Portland, yet THE TEAM wasn't scoring more points than it was allowing while he was out there, in part because Jarrett Jack was lighting him up pretty decent in his own right and in part because our interior defense was crap.actually yeah, Parker had back to back 30 games...no reason to single him out today.

Today, when I wrote what I did about Tony, in the 3rd quarter, he was a -10 at that point. Can you comprehend that? The team was getting outscored with him on the floor by 10. Why? Because, in part, Bibby was scoring a lot of points.
He finished the game at an even zero +/- because in the 4th he turned up the defense. He took one whole shot and missed it, but he had two dimes in a quarter the team scored 30 points.
I've said this over and over again, but nobody seems to understand. The team doesn't need Tony to score a lot to win, they just need him to play smart team basketball. If you pay attention to the games and studied the data, you'd figure these things out for yourself.
The best games Tony plays and the best games we play as a team are when he's locked in on defense and not looking for his shot so much.
You wanna call me biased or a hater, go ahead. But I do my research and I pay attention.
Alright, I'm just saying, just lay off Tony a little.
It looked like you were singling him out at times.
I'm sure you're criticizing him. And I didn't get to watch the game today.
IMO , I think he's starting to get a feel for when to run the offense smoother and when to score this year, but for the most part, he still has those lapses where he looks for his shot "tunnel vision" and the rest of the team offense stagnates.
Also apparently Tony was a little tight in the game, because he was hurt. We won anyway. Besides, I don't think what you're disappointed about Tony's shortcomings during games like these, is ever a problem during the playoffs, in terms of affecting whether we're in the "minus" or not.

aaronstampler, I am perfectly willing to accept your statistical findings as fact. However, the tone of your posts is hard to deal with for this reason:
Your consistent assertion is that Tony Parker is shooting too often and selecting poor shots, and you seem to take Parker to task for it. Why wouldn't you lay the blame for this at the feet of Gregg Popovich?
From all accounts, Popovich is generally comfortable with the volume of Tony's shooting. He has evidently decided that the team performs satisfactorily with Tony playing the point guard position in the way that he plays it. One could argue that Popovich has simply played the hand he was dealt, but the opportunity existed, just a few short years ago, to change direction at point guard. Instead, Parker was offered a new contract of 6 years and 66 million dollars. Presumably, what Popovich thought about Parker's game had a big influence on that contract offer. Again, by all accounts, there is no evidence that the Parker contract went through over Pop's objections.
If Parker's play is in consistent conflict with Pop's gameplan, then Parker should be criticized. But, after weighing the evidence, I have to conclude that Parker is playing the game Popovich wants him to play most of the time. Therefore, it would seem that your criticism of Parker's role lies with the coach, not the player.
I'm not trying to be snarky or fan any flames here - I'm just relating what I see. I hope I was fair, and I did my level best to be civil about it.
Well Mavs have yet to win a le in the "ATT American Airlines Arena" era, or in fact any era, period.
tony was off little last night but kori talked to him and he said his back was tight
POP should have rested him
He scored 30 points against the Blazers...how was he a -1??
This entire game thread you bashed Parker...he had 14 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds. Not a bad game considering he was playing hurt,
I don't mean to single him out or anything, but it gets annoying when people get excited about a player out for just having a good scoring game, especially at the point guard position, and don't pay attention to the other things.
Except for the 4th quarter last night, Tony has been pretty lax on defense the last three games. It's frustrating because up to this point I had thought that defense was his biggest improvement this season, besides the FT shooting.
His ability to stay with and frustrate Iverson, Barbosa, even holding up against Billups was critical in wins over Denver, Phoenix and Detroit. How many opposing points has he gotten pissed off to the point of technical fouls and ejections this year?
I was unaware he was hurt and perhaps if that's the case Kori was right. It just appeared to me that he was expending most of his effort/energy at one end of the floor for the majority of the game, and absolutely nobody on the Spurs can play that way.
