Like closing out on shooters well while basically denying the paint?
We all agree that the Spurs played great defense in that game, but the Warriors did as well. Thats my only point. We missed shots and did not move the ball as well as we normally do because the Warriors did something very right on the defensive side of the ball as well.

or daring Tony Parker to be the superstar his fans long for him to be?
Hey, it's our 3rd game after the all-star break... we had the LAC the night before (their 1st game after the ASG)... then we had GSW a SEGABABA on the road which is also a strong playoff team, young and athletic(also their 1st game after the ASG)... I did expect them to lose this one... i was surprised we had a chance to win it... I think the only time CIA pop coached this game was during the last minute... Did a very good drawn play to send it to overtime... Just need a lil bit of fine tuning...
Somebody mentioned it earlier as well but it is hard to win games from the perimeter only. That explains why not too many point guards lead a team to a championship. Lebron failed in the Finals before he developed a post game. Expecting to always dribble penetration is not going to work against the good defensive teams. They will close out on shooters and still deny the paint. At that point the Spurs best bet is that the other team get tired first.
