He's a good player.
But I didn't want him on Spurz. Pop can make it work... he's getting better.
So now Finley sick, eh Sequ?
A couple of weeks ago you said he was better than Manu.
You make no sense, as usual.
Walton: getting rid of Sequ is not such a bad idea.
He's a good player.
But I didn't want him on Spurz. Pop can make it work... he's getting better.
it be better if n barry attempt his shots like sean marks or even jaren jackson.
Finley was a great player ... put him with Horry to learn how to play as a great reserve... and he will be one of the most useful players in the team
i don't get pop's infatuation with the 2 pg lineup, i would rather have barry in there with parker/manu/duncan/other big, he can pass better than the 2nd pg.
Your classic Timvp, absolutely classic.....hahahahah.
I've said it before the Spurs signed him and I'll say it again, Finley is a one-dimensional, "one-trick pony". If he's not scoring, you often forget he's on the floor. He's not a clutch shooter, he doesn't pass the ball well and he very rarely drives to the hoop. His careless passes and costly turnovers are excruciating to watch.
What Spurs fans are ing about now are the same things Mavs fans have been ing about the past several seasons. While it may be a surprise to some, it shouldn't be a surprise to Spurs coaches. It's the reason his contract value vs his contributions came into question and later made him expendable.
I just hope the Spurs have enough talent to overcome his inconsistency and that he doesn't hurt us down the road.
Barry only played six minutes with no attempted shots, but given the chance I think Barry could have done better than Finley last night. Finley struggled against the Heat and Barry came in a provided some some fire. I would have liked to see more Barry last night, since the rim was once again unkind to Finley.
As someone mentioned before, we know that Barry can hit shots in the playoffs. I hope Barry remembers that and has the confidence when the time comes. As for Finley, he's been bricking shots in the playoffs on a regular basis the past several seasons. In no way, is this dude CLUTCH.
At this point I am more confident in Barry than Finley, I think Barry must find this confidence within himself. But he must get some PT to get him that confidence before the playoffs. If given the time I think his shots will fall, and his play could be vital come playoff time.
Poor Mike. He's done better than I thought he would, largely because I had fears that he'd really suck ass this year. He's had a few good games, but he has yet to really live up to all the hype that surrounded that signing. I wouldn't mind seeing more minutes for Brent, but with the better part of a week off I hold out hope that Finley will find his shot over the break.
I imagine he'll have a big game at some point on the road trip and there will be people falling all over themselves to get to their computer to be the first to post "This is why I wanted to sign Finley."
T Park, I don't really care to get in the middle of this debate about Jaren Jackson, but the whole championship season, and even before that, Jaren's strength was defense. That's why he got playing time. He was a tough on-ball defender. He developed into a great role-player as a perimeter scorer in the hub and spoke offense in 98-99.
i just think barry brings good things besides shooting on the offensive end. people seem to move the ball around better when he is in the game - he seems to understand our offense works best when it's inside-out.
You are absolutely right, people forget how great of a passer he is as well. He ran some PG when he was in Seattle, the guy has great court vision. Plus I think he opens up the floor more than Finley. Im sure other teams are more worried about Barry hitting a 3 than Finley. The way Finley has been shooting they will probably give him an open shot.
Absolutely. And Barry did hit many key shots in last years Finals.
I actually didn't want him to sign with Spurs. He is a player who needs many many shots and it ain't gonna happen w/Spurs. Worst signing since Vanexel
EXACTLY! To think the Spurs allowed players like Maurice Evans and James Jones to get away in order to sign this guy.
I really believe the Spurs fell in love with the Finley from 4 to 5 years ago. Clearly if they had done their homework, they would have realized saw his limitations and his inconsistency.
I could say the same for half the people on this board as well.
he's cold right now, doesn't mean he'll stay that way.
gimme a break, Doug Collins said it best, he's used to shooting a whole heck of a lot and now his role has changed and he has to ease into taking fewer shots. this is just stupid. Do any of you just ease into a new job if you took one?
Spurs have the same ing record as they did last year at this time
He should have signed with Denver like he was supposed to do.
Karma owns!
"Spurs have the same ing record as they did last year at this time"
Great. An 06 Finals between the 05 Spurs and the 06 Spurs would go 7 games.
If only the 06 Spurs were not playing the 06 Pistons.
The only reason Spurs got him was to keep him away from Pistons/Heat. They should bury his ass on the bench, he's this year's big dog
WTF?
Shying away from open shots is not being a punk , it's being smart...I thought that was the whole point of the sport, working as a team to get a good shot, insteand of forced, trashy .
I wish we signed D-Brown.
Devin is the man, he played good for the Spurs, and he understood that you don't just come into a game and start jacking up.
