everyone could have ed up a couple of games , no one can be perfect on everyday . if this wasnt the first basketball game you have ever seen , you should know that . you overreact my friend
Man i was saying that cuz most of Manu's and TP's fans are Arg. and Fr. Theres no Belgian on this team (not yet) Like i said, didn't mean to generalize. You made a good point about the fact that having that using the word 'homers' wouldve been the only thing appropriate to use. My mistake.
Ps: No offense taken

if there's a thing that most of us seem to agree is that Tim and Tony need to be together in the first unit and manu in the second (when they will be both at full strenght).
TP/Mason/***/Tim/***
Hill/Manu/***/***/***
and it's not because i think like some other stupid posters that they can't play together: they can and will still do that in the end of close games.
it's just that we always need one of them at the perimeter ! i don't want to see both of them on the bench for long strecht, even if we've won some games against weak teams like that
Yeah i sobbed like . You hurt my feelings. And French people are considered arrogant. And ur reactions confirm that.
Yes, it's a joke.
Brought it up, because i think it's critical for the rest of the season. I'm sure both those guys are going to adjust, play their hearts out and the Spurs will be fine. I aint worried about a couple of losses.
What i'm worried about is everybody getting involved and that everybody can keep their confidence up.
I was making a point and i was talking about this loss, this game. No panic here.

Main cause of the loss: ty three-point shooting.
Manu & TP bailed us out in the past but sad to say I was thinking the same thing since that Memphis game.
the chemistry that they had shown(TD/Mason/Hill), was good during the streak. But it's not working just now when Manu & TP returned to the line-up, as if we're back to square one. But we'll get there. I just don't know how soon
TP was forcing some shots during the Houston game when sometimes Manu & TD were open. VS Detroit, I don't know exactly what went wrong, 2 L streak, sucks because we were leading
The voice of reason. There sure is a lot of overraction.
Manu and Tony have only been back for a handful of games. Along with Tim, they are vital cogs of the offense. They are trying to work themselfs into a team that has been playing together and adjusting since the season began. Usually with the Spurs these growing pains occur during pre-season, November and December. It might take longer this time around because only now is every-one healthy. Work in progress people.
Only 17 games in the season. Peace...... wait until january.
Chemistry issues are definitely are concern at this point. However, it's still early - early enough for them to be worked out. Many of us felt as though Pop should have left Mason in his role as a starter. That's were he was thriving. For continuity, it didn't make a lot of sense to change that. Hill was doing well coming off the bench and being aggressive. Ginobili's aggressiveness and playmaking ability is better served coming off the bench.

huh, Duncan got butt ed by Rasheed too
they were really out of rhythm but I cant say it was 100% TP and Manu's fault...however, TP and Manu should be eased into the rotation game by game so we can keep some sort of offensive consistency between our back-up guard-play
Yea that was a quick shot by Manu, but I understand his reasoning. The Spurs had become lethargic and lost their confidence. Detroit had the Spurs in the corner and was scoring at will.
Manu had just nailed a 3 in the previous posession. The game was at a crucial point.. if he hits that 3, the Spurs are back within 5 or 6, the place goes nuts.. the teams spirit rises, Detriot calls a timeout.. and then the Spurs start to play some energized defense.
But he missed.. they were going to lose the game anyway the way it was going... it was an okay gamble by Manu. Its not like the Spurs were doing anything in the half court besides throwing the ball to Timmy and watching.
anyone knows that manu can sometimes take very risky shots that could seem bad decisions. but as you mentionned, they are the same shots that falled in so many times for us and get us back in games and saved our ass so many times. no problem about that. the TO are much more annoying.
Man our fans are just the same as yours. We want to get rid of peja, tyson and david west. I thought ours were crazy until i see threads about you wanting to get rid of ginobli and parker. Does a rough start to the season really make fans go nuts? At 10-6 people think we should sell the house and start over. Trading parker and ginobli would just be stupid but hey it would help us out.
