    Having Wilks in the game meant he didn't really want the win. If he wanted the win, Parker would have played. Or he would have had Udrih on the court.

    The only reason Duncan and Manu went back out there is to give them a little run in a pressure situation.

    Nothing more.
    So he would risk playing Tim on the ankle after his longest stretch yet and have Manu sacrifice his body just for practice under pressure?

    Sounds like you're reaching.

    Nevermind the stupid offensive play, what kind of defense was that?

    Pop was saying watch for the lob and they let Miller shoot a wide open jumper?

    Our defense after time outs under Popovich has always been terrible and this is just another example of it. You can only blame the players so long before you realize that the system, the coaching is faulty.

    LJ,

    You said it yourself last year - Horry hasn't hit a big shot when it mattered for the Spurs since we got him.
    You must not have watched those back-to-back double overtime games. Horry hit many clutch shots in those two games.

    His clutchness is back.

    I could forgive Pop if Big Dog was even on the floor, but he wasn't. And what a shocker - the Grizzlies are allowed to play defense and made the worst shooter on the court tonight take our last shot.
    You whine when the Spurs give the ball to Manu. You whine when the Spurs don't give the ball to Manu. Manu made the decision to go to Horry.

    I forget, Nazr can't play D and obviously Malik would have blocked that last shot, or so it goes around here.
    Ha ha. You are damn funny.

    Ignore the clipper game the last week, and the warriors, game too.

    Connect the dots. Parker didn't play. Udrih was on the bench.

    What do you think they were doing? Pop didn't care about the win after he gave Parker the day off.

    Another chance to try a last second shot and Manu Ginobili jacked off to early and let some time on the clock.

    Wasn't it Manu who was guarding Fisher during the .4 and got assspanked?

    I think so.

    i'm not a big pop believer or basher but this lose is definitly on him. When you have Duncan and Ginobili on the floor you go with them. The three is not the shot you take in that situation unless its wide open and it wasn't. Pop gambled and fell flat on his face.

    Why doesn't Pop draw up plays for the ball to go into the basket? He keeps drawing up "miss" plays, but you don't get points for misses. I mean, we miss almost half of our shots every game. Pop needs to draw up more Made Baskets. Stupid.

    "Why Was Duncan Playing!!!"

    Duncan wanted to play, needs to get back some rythym. I thought he very active tonight, and playing quite a few minutes. Not to win, just to get Tim some minutes and game legs back.

    For the tenth time in this thread, the play wasn't for Horry. Manu passed it to him when Horry's man doubled him.

    Damn.

    So you know exactly what the primary option was on the play right???

    You do know or dont know if that was a bailout shot, or it was a wrinkle in the play right??


    Give me a break.

    What do you think they were doing? Pop didn't care about the win after he gave Parker the day off.
    Maybe he thought we didn't need to be at full strength to beat the Grizzlies on the road. Maybe he wanted to instill some more confidence in the bench. Who knows? He sure appeared to want the win at the end.

    It just doesn't make sense not to win this game if you can knowing that there's still a chance you can have homecourt over all teams. If we lose to the Suns in the WCF then there's certainly a solid case to fire Pop. In case you haven't noticed we haven't exactly been a great road team this year.

    Damn.

    So what Manu was supposed to go one on 5? Again, Pop is ing stupid.

    Run the pick and roll and that frees up everyone not named Manu and Duncan.

    A three? When all you needed was a layup?

    The problem wasn't the play, but that the Spurs left them time to shoot.

    Tony Parker did it twice @ GS and got away with it.

    When the shot clock is off, you take the shot with about 2 seconds left to leave time for a possible tip-in, but you NEVER leave the opponent another chance.

    The Spurs did, and they lost.

    Done.

    We weren't playing for HCA tonight. No way Suns were gonna oblige us by dropping 2 games.
