Kori, did you talk on the phone with that Laker??!!!
Nazr/Tim don't do a good job on Rasheed now. So, it doesn't matter. The Spurs need to open up the lane. The lane was completely closed off last night. Tim, Tony and Manu couldn't drive. The Wallaces could pitch a tent in the lane. The Spurs other big has to be some sort of threat and draw one of the Wallaces away from Tim.
Last night, Horry seemed reluctant to shoot. Like to see that change.
Give Nazr another chance, he normally has good games.
But if it's clear that he won't be effective in the game early on, then give his minutes to Horry.
Last night every single Spur was a pussy except Bowen and Devin.
If you start anyone new....then start GRob....he can help pull the "D" out of the paint and his "D" is underrated.......you can also play pick and roll with him because the Pistons would half to honor his shot.
We need Horry's energy off the bench.
Or even start TMass....at least he would body up Ben.
I only offer insightful and accurate opinions. Disregard them at your own peril.
I would also play Devin and Grob instead of Barry, and let Manu or Devin run backup point , and keep Beno on the bench.
very true...although given his playoff experience....I figured Horry would be the last one to pussy-fy like that.Last night every single Spur was a pussy except Bowen and Devin.
IMO we need a much more assertive Tim who beat the double team himself with either the pass or the quick shot. THAT is what we need. I honestly do not think that playing Robert Horry is going to make much difference because Pop is not going to change his game plan offensively. He is going to continue to run the high PnR and 4 down. It is up to our PG and other players to make the right pass at the right time. Sure having Robert Horry bomb a couple threes might losen things up but if Tim Duncan doesnt get more assertive its not going to matter either way. Only Tim Duncan can stop Tim Duncan.
Start GRob instead of who? Bruce?
Hamilton would go off.
I changed my team to Detroit to piss you guys off....it's working...I still bleed Purple and Gold....oh and Horry is a great team Defensive player...but 1 on 1 he gets worked and that's what will happen. Why doesn't TD play him and have Nazr play Big Ben. The reason this isn't happening....fill in the blanks. Oh, my opinion doesn't matter....whatever, keep cracking wise....
Early on is when we're digging ourselves the hole and then hoping that someone off the bench can dig us out. Horry has the veteren experience they need right now. Let him give us the strong start and then let Nazr come off the bench. Or Rasho.
big dog should guard dice
he does not need to start
start brown and bring manu off the bench?
Big Dog guarding Dice? You were joking right? Dice would eat him a live in the low post. Talk about dominating the offensive glass...
Manu shouldn't come off the bench. He should play as many minutes as physically possible. GRob/Devin should take Barry's minutes though.
Wouldn't hurt, can only help. But I would also bring G-Rob off the bench to replace Manu instead of Barry. We need scoring and he can score and he has shown to want to play D.
you do realize dice is killing the spurs
If we straightened Sean Marks' hair and put him in Barry's uniform, do you think anyone would notice?
I agree with Kori...but why can't POP play Tpark, Manu, and Barry for offensive situations with Horry and TD.....maybe replace Horry with Nazr. I don't know, but I don't believe the Bowen is that much a threat. I understand D, but you need to be a threat at each position. Oh, and baseline 3's is not going to cut it anymore. You need activity, cutting and creativity.
Laker: "And Popovich, he be so stubborn, he will not make any adjustments. He will come with the same players. Last year he played that chump Turkalu. He had nothing. We laughed about it. Then too late in the series when it was over, he put Manu in his starting spot."
Piston: "I remember"
Laker: "Me and boys were talking and thinking Pop would make changes in the starters and put Horry in for Narz and Brown in for Manu. That ain't gonna happen.....Pop be too stubborn."
What!!!!?
Having fun cheering for a new team each week?
That sounds great, and bringing Gino off the bench would be even better. If they choose to double Tim anyway, Horry will drain the three or pass off to an open man who will drain it. I hope Pop does this. If he's a good a coach as we think, he will do this.
