Post-game thread (PGT): TP and Manu shine, D is still missing

Perhaps Pop said: "Manu, if you only drive to the basket 5 times or less in order to preserve your body, you can shoot as many 3s as you want."

The good news is, it's still early and it usually takes some time for the defense to settle in (hence SPAM). The great news is, the Spurs are winning close games anyway. The difference between 50 wins and 60 wins last season? The Spurs couldn't win close games last year. They either won big or not at all.

I agree we need to step the Defense up.

New era for the Spurs has begun.
Maybe they can shake away the "boring" le the media keeps on painting them.

They'll come up with a new one if we do keep scoring over 100ppg this season. Abandon your hope dude.

But they play no defense.
ESPN is taking a defense first approch towards the league coverage this year!

haha They actually did start paying more attention to defense..since the Boston Celtics learned how to play it a couple of years ago. Oh and "defense" when Lebron runs down a fastbreak for a block (admittedly spectacular, but not worth putting him on 1st team All Defense).
