Why are they throwing the game?

[sananspursfan21]

don't worry about it. game 6 is as far as this goes

[Parker2112]

Question: Have you seen Pop's eyes turn bloodshot? hes been way to calm considering...im just sayin

[Spursmania]

Game 6 won't be close enough for Joey C. to make a difference. The Spurs will win by double digits.

I hope you're right Tampa.

[SinBAD]

Dont worry guys.this series ends in san antonio.pop just wanted to see their game plan which was alot of zone and wanted to rest his players.after playing like today they will dominate on thursday.plus that means over a million in Holts pocket.When you look at the spurs bench they are just confident and not worried about the loss.Pop looks chill.lets see what he says in the press conference. if he says we played like dogs then this wasnt by gesign.if he keeps saying give dallas credit then he just threw it on purpose.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Is this your first go 'round being a Spurs fan? They get blown out at least once a series in almost every series. No big deal. They got this in game 6.

[awktalk]

Bright spot: Matt Bonner hit two 3's in the first quarter.

But yeah, after a strong first half close, and then come lay an egg and give up a 0-10 run in the second half... wasn't our night. I don't blame Pop for throwing in the towel, but damn giving Mason so many minutes was downright stupid. Guess he'll ride pine the rest of our run. What a tool.

more evidence that a small market team needs ticket revenue...

[bulakenyo]

Disappointing game.

[Sisk]

lock this crap

[Parker2112]

lock this crap

or better yet, merge it with the three other threads insinuating the same thing....

[Parker2112]

pops reaction will tell alot tonight

[ecksrobecks]

spurs purposely gave away the game.holt makes a ton for each game so thats the deal it seems.

this is what spurs fans actually believe

[rayray2k8]

You have got to be ting me... Some of you amaze me just how incredibly stupid ya'll are. Yeah, Holt made the trip to Dallas and told Pop to tank the game. Right, nice take you ing moron.

Only the stupid ones.

he's already gone through it.
There's no need to get your nerves overcome common sense.

Players must respond

G6

You guys forget...its a business first. Dont we have to pay for RJ, TD, TP, Manu, DICE and now Splitter next year?

Sometimes its just TOOO obvious...

[Parker2112]

Pop's post game: bumbling words, rambling, wasnt pissed at all, seemed a little uneasy...keeps touching his face...indifferent

[ploto]

Bright spot: Matt Bonner hit two 3's in the first quarter.

Actually that is a bad sign-- it means Pop will then play him too much, which he did.

The only thing that is obvious is how stupid people are who honestly believe Holt asked the team to tank the game.

[DPG21920]

They tanked the game, but it was not done because Holt asked for it.

[Parker2112]

The only thing that is obvious is how stupid people are who honestly believe Holt asked the team to tank the game.

Not the team...all that has to happen is that our head coach, who is also a member of the front office himself, has to change lineups, extend rotation to include a few "dogs," and take away our continuity so that guys get uncomfortable and lose focus. Pop alone made subs utions.

The fact that Dice wasnt glued to dirk says it all...

[Parker2112]

They tanked the game, but it was not done because Holt asked for it.

why then?

[DPG21920]

Hard to explain. That is how Pop works. He has an ego and plays "the odds".

[dallaskd]

Duncan has Dampier up in the air 10 ft from the basket. Instead of going in for a layup he shoots a jumper moving sideways. Ginobili then passes the ball to Butler. Nit to mention Pop randomly playing Mason. Not to mention Mason, Bonner and Blair all at once.


What is going on?

i never saw dampier hit the court tonight..

[Parker2112]

mason jr. isnt deflated in the least...
