anyone talking about duncan ought to be scoffing manu even harder, manu made playoff shawn marion look like jordan
tim laid a big fat egg tonight. he seemed throroughly confused by the defense and held the ball too long, got it stripped and just made poor decisions. if he doesn't know what he wants to do with the ball when he gets it, he needs to pass, repost and make a quick decisive move.

Pathetic effort by Pop not to adjust his game plan in the second half. Absolutely pathetic. Pop showed just how bad he is tonight.
Pop goes as Tim Duncan goes
there is a reason Pop fired Bob Hill, so he could get the glory and les he knew Duncan would bring
Duncan was bad, Manu was bad, the D was bad they were just bad this is going to be a tough series for them. I think they will be alright but it will be a battle.
after seeing Manu how he played today after a week off
i am not so sure anymore
that he shouldnt play for the Argentinian Team this summer
Hey- Rasho played well against Denver last month.
Yeah, but when you stick him out there with Vaughn, Bowen, Oberto, and Horry- it is not too hard to figure out that Denver will double team him.
Oberto and Horry were actually both pretty good offensively tonight.
This is the most frustrated with Manu Ive been since the infamous foul.\
nah, frustrated isnt the word im looking for.
Pitiful performances by both men tonight. If they dont get their together things are getting bad. DALLAS AND PHOENIX!! I just hope we can win a game in this series.
maybe like the rest of argentina manu was too busy worrying about american gun control than basketball
How can you bring that bull .
Pop has lost games for us but this one ain't one of them.
1. The players missed LAYUPS.
2. Some flopped instead of blocking out to secure rebounds trying to drawn a foul.
3. Pop made great coaching decisions, like puting bench players when our starters were struggling (it takes balls to do that), he even made great calls after time outs, which is what a coach is supposed to do.
4. Pop never told Manu nor Timmy to play scared.
Just give Popovich a break.

Yeah it aint on pop that duncan and ginobili decided to treat this like october.
It is his fault he didnt play Bowen more though.
do u think that bowen can stop anthony like in 05?
speak for yourself. We cant see this game on tv
Go Warriors!
Go Warriors!
no its not, yall lost me ing money!
spurs just could not buy a bucket...they will be ok tho..nobody scared me but iverson and melo...they have to do what they did to win every game
Pop should have told Duncan to make those lay-ups. Damn you , Pop!!!!
Hey TPark, perhaps Pop should've been concerned that Bowen and Fin combined for 53 minutes and had as many rebounds as you or me. Fin hit some shots but was quite poor defensively. Really, the whole team was.
I think this game was lost in Game 82 when Pop didn't play any of the big three at all. They were rusty as and sluggish. If I'm gonna blame anyone, I'm gonna blame the coach. I don't understand why he didn't go to Manu in the 4th like he usually does. Why is it the guy only gets to shoot the ball when the other two are on the bench?
I agree he played Bowen too little, but that means he played Finley too much. He should have tore into the team at half and told them to take the ball to the basket and get to the line. They settled for too many jumpshots and played too slow on offense.
Either take threes or take lay-ups. The worst two things for an offense are 2 point jump shots and turnovers and it's what we did all game.
We'll get them!
I just want to say GOOD JOB to the nugs, but it's a 7 game series (SO WATCH OUT!!)
Mello is way better than tony and obviously better than timmy d but, we got bruce and my man manu to bring up the noise!!
WELL GET EM BOYS!
+ the calls were BULL !
thanks. we expect the spurs to go all out game 2. but for the moment, we're savoring the win. hopefully it wont be a repeat of the series before wherein we won game 1 and you guy took 2-5.
here's to a great series ahead.
You can't make stupid decisions with the ball when you aren't going aggressively to the hoop and when you aren't hitting shots. At one point the Nuggs led in free throw attempts 16-4 and the officiating was excellent; the Spurs just weren't being aggressive. Small ball had far fewer defensive lapses than I'd feared, but couldn't secure rebounds to save their lives. Timmy just throwing the ball to the opponents, holding the ball too long and that ing lame attempt to steal the tip from a guy who just had his leg re-wrapped is the kicker. Time for Mr. ing Game Face to show up.
BTW, I thought the bench and the coach were excellent as well. Great plays coming out of timeouts.
