Yeah, it does happen a lot. I point something out that hasn't happened all game then it happens.

Duncan reaction to Parker's reaction to that play was priceless.

[TDfan2007]

For a number of games now, Tim has played mostly at the elbow for the first 3 Qs and done well on bankers and drives, but then he goes into the post in the 4th and misses everything. Why not stick to the bankers and drives???

I don't like his 4th quarter offense as of late either, but I'd still prefer him in the post if he actually makes good moves. Not that where he rumbles across the lane and throws a shot up. How about a shoulder shimmy then jump hook? Or that one-handed turn around bank shot? Or maybe that baseline turnaround that's been mostly MIA since 2004?

[Chieflion]

That became an assist for Tony and 2 points for Duncan.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Sean just said "nice to see the old Manu back". Um, no. Nice to see a little bit of the old Manu back, but he still has a long way to go. I hope he makes it all the way.

[urunobili]

20pts for Manu...

[TPnumber1]

this game is over nice victory,it's 4h55 am in france so good night

[dbestpro]

TP 18 3 and 11 assists shooting 8-14 nice !

This is exactly what we need as a team from TP. Offense was good but the interior D blows.

[Chieflion]

I forgot how good a win felt like.

[urunobili]

I'm 2-0 this season when opening game threads

when is the last time duncan manu and tp scored 54 or more points combinded

[Purch]

When Tony passes it to Jefferson on cuts this team is 10 times more effective

[Spurs Brazil]

Good to win again

[ezau]

Wow Manu. I thought you're done and you made me eat crow, again. The best part about this game is Jefferson and Manu having breakout games. I know we have the talent, but we just need to find that small button so we can start beating teams on a regular basis

[Spurs Brazil]

Keep doing it

[ducks]

thanks

tp passed the ball to jefferson before

bogans got 3 3 threes setup by tp and made them
it made tp look great
tp has made those passes in the past just players missing the shot

Indeed. Or how about a power drop step?

[45 bank shot]

good victory, gt keep it up n get the confidence back.
After all, we are playing Charlotte on Friday, it'll be tough

[Fpoonsie]

I'd love to see Manu come in and take the game over.

Won't happen, but it'd be nice.

Mmmm...crow.

[Danny.Zhu]

Transition D and interior D looked really poor. Nothing to get excited about in this game other than TP passing the ball.

You forgot to mention RJ's scoring.

[Brazil]

20pts for Manu...

nice to see him with closing FTs, 3s and a good dunk. Maybe the most positive thing about this game is the fact that Manu can build upon a little bit of confidence

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Let's not suck each other's s yet - Manu has a loooong way to go. Nice to see flashes of the guy we know and love though.

And Jefferson loves playing the Kings, but he's gotta learn to play like that night in night out.

I'd love to see Manu come in and take the game over.

Won't happen, but it'd be nice.
