Manu didn't really flop all that much, not sure where you get that from.
It seemed that Manu was not Manu & Duncan was clearly frustrated.
Manu has to stop acting and trying to flop. It's fine if there's a ton of contact, but it seemed like at times he was more concerned with flopping and getting calls. Also, very uncharacteristic of him to miss FTs in the 4th. OUCH!
Tim Duncan was struggling at the FT line tonight. One thing I've learned over the years about Duncan is this: when he struggles from the FT line while behind, his overall game starts to struggle. He took some really bad shots, one even hit the side of the backboard??? I thought going to Duncan in the last shot was extremely, extremely risky considering he wasn't hitting anything in the 4th, especially his FTs and chances are if they put him on the FT line, he probably would've missed both FTs, so kind of a strange decision by Pop to go to Duncan on the last play.
It seemed that when Seattle started playing more physical it really took the fire out of the Spurs. They eventually lost their lead and were playing catchup.
Also, they were horrible on the boards. 14 offensive boards, 4 for Allen??? What is THAT about?
My guess is Pop will say 2 things: Boards & toughness. He will probably say they played "soft"(he likes to say that) and I look to see the Spurs take away that stupid pick & roll play away and hit their FTs in a win Sunday.
Also, Parker was horrible in the 4th and they probably would've been fine with Beno playing out the 4th. It was THAT bad for Parker.
BTW, any chance we can start Manu and have Devin Brown come off the bench instead of Barry? Barry has been mediocre at best this season and this series seems to be getting in his head. He had a very poor game.
Hard to believe he's getting paid $4.5 Million. Strange.

That flop in the 4th was kinda tacky.
He was getting a reputation as a flopper by Karl, so Manu should be much smarter about when to act and when not to.
That last one in the 4th was really tacky. Even the announcers said so.
I'm not saying he does it all the time, but that last one was a case of Manu getting frustrated by AD's play & a lack of calls.
Manu was working his ass off. Others where slacking.
Some of them need a good clean shave .. I think spurs should all go bald. Manu too.
What the you talking about?
How is Devin's health?
Is he really in that bad of shape?
Because I would not at all be opposed to starting Manu and having Devin come off the bench.
Barry is sucking the big one and is the reason why the Spurs had to change their rotation during the playoffs.
Sure it worked, but it may not work all the time.
Barry is getting paid $4.5 million this year.
That's upsetting.
The flop in the 4th where he was trying to go through a screen guarding AD. Remember that one?
I thouth that AD hit Manu with the right arm in the mouth. But knowing Manu he made it extra dramatic.
Devin Brown is not even close health wise to getting big minutes off the bench.
barry played mediocre tonight, a typical Barry night, so settle down.
I expect a better effort sunday hopefully.
well for one thing our best sg isnt even starting. the whole 'create a bench' thing is bull and thats just my opinion. and 2nd why are we still runnin the ball thru duncan likes its 2003. its obvious he aint the same damn player. wake the up
