Mouse.....
3 ticks left, Spurs can put a lineup of NVE, Manu, Fin, Horry, Tim! WOW!!
Manu would have the ball in his hands, but if he had to give it up, then...
... YEAH I trust Finley!
Well, considering that almost everybody that plays for us becomes clutch, yeah, I'd let him take the shot. Almost every player on the Spurs has hit a game-winning shot at one time or another, so what the , line em' up!
Mouse is just sour that Fin is gonna win a le!
sure why not.
Seriously, I wouldn't mind Finley taking the shot at all.
In fact, considering his career 3pt field goal percentage is one of the highest on the spurs..... I think I'd prefer him taking the shot.
Well... the Mavs trusted him enough to take the last shot over Elliot with a couple seconds left in game in Dallas... Shot right over him to win it.
I trust him to shoot it
I trust nic
I trust manu
I trust td
I trust horry
if it's their shot... give it to them...
Thank you, it's good to know when one's work is appreciated.
why not? but I'd go Tim and Manu and Rob first..
Game 1 2003 WCF Michael Finley For the Win.
Mavs lead series 1-0
MJ was da Bomb also, but there were many times he missed the game winning shot,
Finely can make that shot as long as it's not againts the Mavericks, Thast is just to much pressure for any ex Dallas Maverick to have to deal with,
I can't wait for Spurs vs Mavs , when Finely and the Spurs get Served!
With the ball? Manu
With the shot? Horry
Fin-dawg is our 4th best option. Not too shabby eh Mouse?
Yes, I'd trust Finley with the last shot. I don't understand all the hating on Finley from Spurs fans when he is on our team. Why throw one of our players under the bus?
First option for me is either Tim or Manu, depending on how Tim is shooting his free throws. If Tim is shooting his free throws well, I go with Tim, our two time MVP and three time Finals MVP. If not, I go to Manu without hesitation.
Horry is second after Manu if Tim is not shooting his free throws well. Otherwise, he is third after Manu. Fourth (if Tim is shooting his fts well) is Finley (or third is Timmy is not making his free throws). Fifth is Nick Van Exel.
Of course, our inside out philosophy suggests that Tim is normally the centerpiece of any play we run.
This just happens to be a team of great superstar players, who are able to rise to the occasion when it counts.
I notice that nobody has mentioned Parker on the perimeter as a deadly three point threat at the end of a game. Just had to get that in to get a rise out of some homers.
I forgot something while submitting my last post that I wanted to agree with.
Somebody brought up that they wanted to see the ball in Manu's hands at the end of the game. I completely agree with this. One of the really great things that we saw this year is Manu's decisions were excellent at the end of playoff games. Pop trusted Manu more and more with the ball at the end of the game (as in the Finals and game 6 against the Sonics- for that matter it was also true against the Suns) and it paid off. A couple of years ago, Manu was too reckless and careless with the ball. He would turn it over too much. That is no longer the case. Plus, of course, as we all know, Manu is the best free throw shooter of any of our starters. The evolution of his decision making and the improvement in his assist to turnover ratio is an important part of his jump from a good player to one of the ten elite players in the league, which is where I place him.
I hope and believe that Tony will begin to make that kind of jump this coming year. Based off the improvement in his numbers from the year before last to last year, I would say that this expectation and confidence is relatively justified.
Finley will be comfortably watching all important last shots from the bench.
I'd let him cheer the last seconds of every close game from the bench
and collecting his $$$ from Cuban while he warms up the bench.
ouch!
agreed. I would rather Horry, or even NVE before Finley.
This is like 100000000 thread on Finley by Tonto.
not as a first option but if he ends up with the ball in his hands.. id be glad for him to take the last shot than parker
Lets see how you feel come playoffs, Talk is cheap now. Everyone and thier mothers are praising Huckle Berry Finnley now. But when your 0-3 vs The Mavericks in round one and there is 3 seconds on the clock?
The ball will go to Finely and when he misses that season ending shot? this site will explode with one over million get rid of Finely topics
the grape kool-aid will flow that night for sure,
And I will be here to witness it , as I laugh my ass off..............
He wouldn't be my first option, but yes, I'd give him a shot.
I think it depends on whether we need two or three points to win. If it's two, then Duncan in close is dependable. Manu can get you two with a drive, and maybe a three if they foul him, but when they know a two won't win, then it takes some dunce like Rasheed to blow the coverage.
Horry is the first option on a three because...well, because he's Big Shot Bob, but Finley and NVE on the court will really spread things out for a last second 3. Any of these guys can make it.
