Keep the in depth versions if you have the time.. They are amazing..Question: Does the SpursTalk populace prefer comprehensive grades like the above post that takes longer to put together ... or would do you prefer a less in-depth version that would be posted quicker following games?
Thank you in advance for your input

You know in gameblog I was probably starting to get a little anxious about this, but I realized I'm probably overreacting.
Manu took 4 shots this entire game. One of them was a legitimate 3 point attempt that he missed - fine. Another one was a crazy behind the back dribble off balance chucker (2 point shot) near the end of a shot clock off a mangled play. 0-2, but I can't really blame him for that one. He had a little floater that he missed, and I don't remember the final shot attempt, but he still only took 4 attempts.
And, regarding his free throws - yeah, he wasn't confident with taking the technical free throw, but of the two free throw attempts he did take, while one of them clanked off the rim, he showed perfect form and swished the second attempt.
Granted, I haven't really seen Manu take enough shots to be able to properly judge his form (despite being 4-7 last game, a handful of them were just straight up layups and at least one was a floater - I don't think I saw a single jump shot go in), but I'm hoping this is all just a function of rust and lack of conditioning and not a function of his shot fundamentally thrown off kilter from his injury.
comprehensive and fast would be great.
Thanks for the write-up, great read as always
timvp is 29/29 on team grades so far this season if im not mistaken
Can he go the whole season without missing a grade write-up?
+1
Typical Pop 'n Bonner lovefest. If this is a preview of how intelligently Pop will use Bonner in the playoffs it could be another quick exit.
Ok TP was asleep for most part of the game but Spurs (and TP) need some gaz tomorrow but finally Spurs was +15 at the beginning of last quarter.
You give A+ at TD with an horrible end of game, B at Manu with 0pt and C+ at TP who was the clutch player. Without TP, the game was lost, how can he have the worst grade of the evening ?
For me the big three need a B.
What caught my eye early is future hall of famer Ben Wallace? that there is just strange to see lol. He did play his butt off though, as if it were 05 at times and he saw a le.
I just started watching the game and the first 3 minutes have been the Danny Green show. Hes taken 3 shots (missed the first two, fouled on the last and sent to the line), gotten three boards, made several nice passes (including a pinpoint assist to Duncan), gotten two clean strips and played suffocating defense on at least one break-away by Brandon Knight.
Too bad I don't think he kept it up all game. He had a great start.
Bonner is Pop's Achilles heal. I'm sure his coaching would be better without Bonner. Pop just falls in love with certain players to the team's detriment like Finley.
Take the C+ for Parker as a compliment. (if you're a Parker homer..err, I mean fan). All it means is that we've come to expect and depend on TP to produce all star caliber numbers night in and night out. This is the same guy who dropped 42 and 37 on competent defensive clubs like OKC and Philadelphia.
Comprehensive coverage for sure.
I enjoy the read more than immediate discussion.
Also, with having to take night classes this semester and no DVR, timvp's coverage is what I rely on!
Was disappointed to see the pistons come back like that. A win is a win, but ideally we wanted to close that game out and rest for tomorrows game.
-Given that the Pistons have no effective Iso players, I was really surprised they kept up offensively. Part of it was the refs gifting them fouls but still..
-Was kind of falling for Bonner's magic trick again. Really started thinking what if Bonner was effective in the playoffs this year and proves everyone wrong? While its still possible he certainly choked tonight.
Get real it's Bonner man, no clue why heads buy into that sh*t every year. He showed signs of his choking in Dallas last time at the end as well! He fukked up in the end there and tonight some as well. If it gets real he is not going to help, trust me he has shown it from time to time.
Thanks Tim for posting your grades. I prefer the comprehensive grades, but would take the less in-depth version, if your pressed for time.Question: Does the SpursTalk populace prefer comprehensive grades like the above post that takes longer to put together ... or would do you prefer a less in-depth version that would be posted quicker following games?

Comprehensive > speed
I love to read your Grades. Thanks TiMVP.
I prefer the comprehensive coverage. But it4s up to you.
Parker saved the day. He got a B.
comprehensive and speed > Comprehensive > speed
Yeah, that's why I called him a magic trick, a disappearing act to be specific.
Really enjoy the insight and appreciate your efforts. Quick only trumps substance in a foot race..........."that's what she said"....sorry....
For completely selfish reasons.
how many of you actually watch the game? We led by 14 when the 4th quarter began. Bonner was on the court in the 4th for the first 2:45. He went to the bench we led by 7. When he came back at the 5:28 mark we trailed by 1. How in the did he give away the lead all by himself when half of it was lost with him on the bench? After he came back, he must have been doing something right or we would have lost by having only 4 on 5. Most of you only watch the game and the ball. Try watching who blocks out on the rebounds. Try watching who give help D sometime. Instead of blaming Bonner for the lost lead, blame it on the TEAM effort. One player doesnt lose games. Every player who has every set foot on the NBA floor has made mistakes. Maybe Bonner is not the most effiecent defensive player on the Spurs but he plays hard when he is on the court. You want to point a finger at a single player for losing the lead? Try pointing at Leonard, he was on the court from the beginning of the 4th quarter until all the lead was gone. Did he lose the lead all by himself? Not NO but no. The entire team quit for 6 1/2 minutes.
