If there is anything to take away from this game is that Parker starting the game will do wonders for the Spurs. I saw some good things here that really makes me believe the Spurs will win in Game 2.
The worst thing that is going to come out of tonight is that Bogans is going to get more playing time in game 2.
I promise you Bogans comes in during the first quarter of game 2. Be prepared.
I was talking about that line-up combined.
Wanna touch my clam?
This game did prove one thing...a 15 point Phoenix lead is like a 5 point lead by any other team...they can't hold a big lead worth ...
Bogans is not a player who will hurt you against Phoenix the way and obviously Mason will. He's an adequate defender against Richardson and he won't chuck egregiously. As a weak-side shooter he's far superior to .
Lol you people that don't want brogans and mason playing who e he'll should play!?!?!
You can't run with a six man rotation
Agreed, he sucked in game 1 vs. Mavs and rebounded nicely. After tonight I am convinced we are the better team. Still need to play with the same tenacity we played against Mavs.
it is abso lutely unneessary to play mason AT ING ALL, left alone playing him along with bogans, bonner and blair.
I'm getting sick of him putting the ball on the floor at the slightest hint of someone running at him. At this point I'd rather see him jack it up aggressively than dribble into No Man's Land.
They also need to find some way to slow down J-Rich. If he's not going off, the Suns are very takable.
So you would rather want mason to play instead of bogans? gtfo, mason cant shoot cant play d, atleast bogans plays d
I've been one of the more vocal posters against Bogans all year, but he's pretty much the only option..Pop isn't going to go with an inexperienced Hairston coming off an injury, and Temple looked shaky vs. the Mavs and is too skinny to deal with their wings..
It's Bogans or Mason..Bogans is the lesser of 2 evils, he can at least play decent D, especially in comparison to Mason..
Roger's confidence is completely gone and he doesn't even try on defense..
We have too much working against us.
Duncan is choking at the FT line.
Our two bench shooters are chokers.
Hill, our new star, matches up horribly.
The opposition runs 10 deep.
Too much.
Yeah lol, it baffles me when it leads to points too...
RJ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bogans
Keith hit a couple of bull shots and then air balled a wide open three. He will always hurt the Spurs in the long run. Stats back this up.
RJ may not be a reliable three point shooter but guess what neither is Bogans (in fact Bogans is even worse than RJ) at least Richard can take it to the hole and with his athleticism make things happen at both ends of the floor.
Key in on JRich and don't leave him or rotate faster. Let A'm'a'r'e' go for 30 if he doesn't foul out guarding Big Time Timmy Jim... have Parker (best Nash defender) and Nash go at it. No easy way out of this...this series may go 7
Only positive is our ability to get to the line.
But Tim choking at the line = fail.
Play our most consistent role player (McDyess) more than 18 minutes.
Play Mason zero minutes.
Go to Jefferson more on the block or 15 feet from the basket when he has Barbosa/Nash/Richardson on him. (Which is pretty much the whole game.) That's a matchup that favors the Spurs.
I want none of them. Play TP, Hill, Manu, RJ, Bonner, Dice, Duncan and Blair like we did against the Mavs. And do you also bealive this urban myth than Bogans is a good defensive player?
It sucks that Richardson did so much damage..he's such a dirtbag..
in the time where spurs comeback and tie the game, RJ learns to dish out when attacking the rim, we should have give him more the ball
the most important, the whole team should have another FT lesson
Slow the pace of the game. Definitely slow it down too. Walk it up like snails or old men at the Y
