Zach Randolph is playing the kind of D that Fin usually does.

e Lee?
Balkman's mistake was taking one or two too many steps towards the lane and losing sight of Finley. This is a play that the Spurs run to take advantage of the weak side defender who will almost always sag into the lane a bit because they are taught to do so in a normal half court situation to take away the easy pass to the big for the dunk. Duncan loops around when he sees that weak side defender sag on the ball movement and sets a pick on Finley's man. Once Balkman sagged just a little on the ball movement and Duncan got outside position on him it was over, there was nothing Balkman could do from that point on. Very well run play by the Spurs that when executed that well will work for an open look against all but the very basketball savvy wing defenders.
It's funny but in that pic if you look in the crowd, you'll see Barry Sanders.

Great pic
pic of the game Spurs Lakers in LA last year? Fin was amazing!
Nice pic. Where is Ginobili?
Where did you pull this pic from?
It's amazing.
i was going to ask the same thing... i don;t even see him non the floor.
The pic is on yahoo, I don't know if that's where crc21209 got it though.
Look at poor Balkman walking back to the bench while Finley runs down court.

I got it on Spurs.com late last night after the win, classic pic.
Very similar pic to Hedo hitting the game winner vs Indiana @ATT. Same corner, too.
Mike has such a beautiful looking effortless jump shot, jumps high and straight up, lots of arc, body and legs under control, full arm extension and follow through. textbook shooting.
Agreed Boutons, Fin's jumper is easily the sweetest smoothest most textbook jumper I've seen a Spur have in the days of watching them.
I watched the play over again and if you notice in the pic behind Timmy & Balkman there is another pair of legs,shorts, shoes, etc, that is Manu back there haha, u gotta remember after his drive he pretty much ended up out of bounds. lolNice pic. Where is Ginobili?
Ginobili was taking the picture.
Check out Malik Rose on the far right screaming at Finley on the shot. Malik should have learned from Amare that it won't work on the Spurs.
I don't understand why our first option wasn't Matt Bonner. WTF?
