this thing started after the 05 finals but generally that's what championship experience gives you. when push comes to shove, spurs give it their best by punishing opponents where it hurts the most, the scoreboard.
If this was an isolated incident, I would say forget it. But it isn't. Terry is a punk ass thug, and should be given some suspension time to think about his actions.
Luckily for us, the more of a beating Manu takes, the better he seems to respond. Which is another thing that seems to be catching amoung the Spurs. Remember the night Mad Dog was in just to beat up on Tim? Seemed to just fire Tim up. Just like Manu when he takes a cheap shot. Another intangible that Manu brings to the Spurs.
If opposing coaches were smart, they would tell their guys not to give any hard fouls or any cheap shots. That seems to be the point where the Spurs go off on them.

What if Terry injured Manu? You wouldn't be saying that...Manu is having an amazing season, the Spurs can really repeat this season, and and I don't want to see our chances ed up by this little punk
Remember Juwan Howard (when he was a ... Mav) injured Derek Anderson in the 2000 playoffs?
We can only hope that nothing like a flagrant gets instated and possibly causes Terry to hold back next time. Manu got pissed and went off on the Mavs, so let Terry keep on doing it.
You do realize that Manu could have been seriously injured in that play?
Terry grabbing Manu's arm while in mid air AFTER the foul is too dangerous...and intentional...
Stuff like this should be regulated in the NBA...
Obviously as long as he doesn't get injured, it lights a fire under Manu. He was mad and it showed in his game. But yes, if Manu actually got/gets injured I'd be singing a different tune.
Umm....favorite posting I've ever read at ST. Wicked creative!![]()
poor baby. are you sure you're not a suns fan? since when do spur fans stoop to this level? if this is how you're going to behave, move to phoenix, or send in horry for payback.
I'm sure there is a Dallas forum that you can move on to...![]()
I like the proposed rule which calls for the offending player to miss as many games as the player he injured. THAT would curtail dirty plays.
