Plus/Minus: Game 3, Pistons 96, Spurs 79

[FromWayDowntown]

Here are the plus/minus numbers from Game 3. From the Spurs side, the numbers are pretty absymal, though Parker was clearly off the floor for the worst of the damage (and did a nice job of keeping the Spurs close while he was on the floor). Timmy really took some last night.

Pistons' numbers are pretty much as expected -- nobody was a minus.

Spurs
+6 -- Nesterovic
EVEN -- Horry
-2 -- Brown
-3 -- Parker
-6 -- Robinson
-8 -- Bowen
-8 -- Barry
-10 -- Udrih
-15 -- Mohammed
-15 -- Ginobili
-24 -- Duncan

Pistons
+17 -- Hamilton
+16 -- Billups
+15 -- Prince
+12 -- B. Wallace
+11 -- R. Wallace
+11 -- McDyess
+3 -- Hunter
EVEN -- Dupree
EVEN -- Milicic
EVEN -- Ham
EVEN -- Arroyo

For the series, the ulative plus/minus look like this:

Spurs
+29 -- Horry
+27 -- Ginobili
+26 -- Parker
+16 -- Bowen
+9 -- Nesterovic
+5 -- Duncan
+5 -- Robinson
-1 -- Massenburg

Rasho da man and pope the dumb....

[Solid D]

It adds up. Rasho was very good, particularly with his screening.

The Spurs got up by 6 in the 1st quarter with Rasho and Barry playing very well. When Udrih and Robinson came in, it was a wet blanket on the Spurs' fire and the Pistons caught up.

I certainly hope Nazr is able to check out another pair of hands in the equipment room. The pair he had last night did not fit.

Darko - EVEN
Duncan -24

Darko pwned him! Who got the best of the draft now?

If Nazr can't catch a pass, the Spurs might as well put Rasho back in the starting lineup. Nazr had the hands of a brick wall last night.

[T Park]

Well, to be fair, Rasho doesn't exactly have the hands of fly paper, but if Rasho is outplaying Nazr, wtf, why not.

I didnt understand pop leaving Nazr in last night for so long when he was horrible out there, and Rasho was obviously playing the best.

Also, the little 2 foot one handed shot wouldve come in handy last night with how much they were goin for block shots.


Also, Nazr, Duncan, anyone??

UPFAKE, and youll foul them guys out.
