Playoffs Game Blog: Spurs @ Grizzlies - Game 6 - April 29

[Kuestmaster]

Yes but he did his best impersonation of the invisible man.

Please don't play him at all in the second half, he's useless

[Kori Ellis]

Playing one man short would be better than playing with RJ. He doesn't do anything right on either end. It's not that he just doesn't score/pass/rebound/defend. On top of it, he's always in the wrong place, screwing things up for everyone else. Leave him on the bench -- he was a good cheerleader when Neal hit the three last game. That should be his new role.

[AnthonyM]

You're damn right. Finley sucked at the end but he did show up in a few series for the Spurs. He was huge against Dallas in 06.

RJ on the other hand is just ing terrible.

Yeah, and Finley was 33 in '06 and far less athletic at that point than RJ is now, who is still 30.

Pathetic.

@ guy behind Sean sitting drink atop splitter box and all those electronics.

@ 3 women behind Bill who I bet are not talking basketball.

@ Bonner getting doinked by the FT and being gun shy afterward.

Co- ing sign..

Danny Green or Novak should be playing before RJ gets another minute. His play has regressed to a new low these past 3 games.

I was just about to post that we needed to hear from you on this to make it official.

[Supergirl]

announcers just said spurs actually outscored grizz in pts off turnovers and fast break points. this is a good sign.

That's one expensive cheerleader.

[Capt Bringdown]

20-20 hindsight, but I wonder what the Spurs saw in Jefferson. Adding another finesse player is never a good idea.

I couldn't agree with you more! What the were the Spurs thinking when they gave jefferson that big contract?

[Horse]

This is it no tommorow c'mon Spurs!

[DesignatedT]

They are playing so much more aggressively then we are, especially on the defensive end yet they have shot more free throws the first half.

Spurs gotta get the lead early and play from front. If it goes the same as they first half then i don't like our chances


Massive start to the thrid here

[Hemotivo]

Alright I give up. Somebody PLEASE PLEASE explain to me why George Hill has been the primary ball handler when he is on the court with Parker?

Why is Hill handling it at the top and Parker only gets the ball in the corner?

What is going on here....George Hill is a notoriously bad ball handler with poor vision....Parker is supposed to have speed as an asset.

And he's being forced to handle the ball in the corner, surrounded by Grizzlies with Hill wasting like 10 seconds off the shot clock to hand him the ball.

WTF is going on here??????

[Spurologist]

anybody else having trouble getting into ST the last 10 mins?

[NewJerSpur]

ALSO, does anyone remember how relentless Tony Parker was driving the ball in game 1???


Is it a Memphis defensive adjustment taking away his angles, or is it just him being a giant pussy?

I still believe Parker got hurt in game 1, he just hasn't said anything about it. He does not have that quick higher level gear anymore.

Memphis is cutting off the angles to the basket and has at least to guys to each side within trapping distance when he starts to drive.....his midrange jumper used to bail him/us out but it's not falling and he doesn't seem to have confidence in it. More PnR nedded between him and Timmy I think.

[MannyIsGod]

George hill started, haha. you, RJ.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

@ the ers who ripped on me for ripping on RJ before the season.

@ all of us who thought he might have turned a corner after his first 6 weeks of the season.

@ Spurs franchise and fans by RJ over the heist he pulled in opting out and resigning to the new contract.

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes TD!!!

[Kuestmaster]

Timmy!!

c'mon! let's do this!

[NewJerSpur]

Vintage Timmy.

[siraulo23]

TD go!!!!!

cmon lets go

[hitmanyr2k]

Execution looked sharp on that first possession. Looked like Spurs basketball there.

[Nathan89]

Neal is 2-8 and he was forced to take one at the end of a shot clock.

[JohnnySixString]

The Spurs need to play like it could be their last game.



Oh....wait...
