ugly win is a win
This team shows us that our guys don't give up a , after an ugly game they r able to hit clutch shoots, one over all, Neal
Props guys!
i called it in the game thread. Neal has short term memory. He just remembers the moment at hand lol. He and bonner made up for there transgressions. All is well that ends well
mental toughness my ass, had they loss the game, everyone on here would be calling them out for choking away a game where they hold most of the leads tonight...
they were lucky tonight...
They deserve some credit for not folding when it wasn't going well for them, but they really made it hard on themselves with stupid decisions and bad basketball.
lol if pierce's shot went in, if would have been a fold. This was Miami all over again but they got lucky Boston sucked on offense
I think this was a great win the spurs beat the hottest team beside the spurs on a back to back. We got a W and the spurs arnt stupid they know they played like complete turds the entire game and it shouldnt of been that close down the stretch but its good to see the teams mental toughness of not folding when the Cs went up.
Well stated.
can't expect them to play perfect ball every game bud
This is why Mills shouldn't take Neal's place in the rotation, defense be damned. Neal has the clutch gene, and you can't teach that.
lol perfect ball. Yeah that's why I posted that.![]()
only thing this team is good at is blowing loads when they are up by +14 pts...
dont need to tell me what they do when the bench comes in when the leads start to go backwards, going away from executing plays to worrying about individual stats
It was one game the spurs were on a back to back against the hottest team since the all star break not to metion a great defensive team that was a main reason why the spurs were so dam horrible in the 2nd half. Yes the spurs played terrible in the 2ndhalf but considering our big three played bad and we still got the W even with our excution I think this is a good W and in the playoffs there's going to be ugly games and this will only help the spurs going foward.
the big 3 didnt blow a 16pt lead or a 11pt lead in the 3rd quarter, it was the stupid bench players and marginal players who played with a cold hand when they had plenty of open looks.....they were lucky jax and splitter bailed them out when scoring was needed....and they only had 4 shots between them for that 3rd quarter only, while hole chuckers contiinue to throw up wasted open looks not making them
Kind of what I was thinking too...
If Pierce's shot goes down, then we're talking about something totally different. Had the Spurs not been so utterly careless with the basketball, this game would not have been as close as it was.
They were damn lucky and fortunate that the Celtics were almost as inept offensively as they were. Still, ANY win is a good win.
fck pop for continue to stick with the hole players for the game when in the given minutes they havnt shown anything yet continue to get minutes, yet there are still players waiting to come in to contribute who are better then the crap given minutes...
diaw stuck on the bench, while bonner, neal, blair still get playing time
Why do you even follow the team? They seem to only piss you off.
cause im pissing you off to get a conversation going, u mad?
It was a learning experience for the young guys and a good win for the team as a whole. they ground it out and got the W. I was dissapointed in Leonard's performance but being a rookie he needed a game where he was going to get schooled by a wily pro now let's see how he comes back, I think he will do fine. As much as I ed at the refs they didn't really favor either team I thought the Spurs let the physical play get to them but it will help that they got the win on a night they could have easily folded.
you cant complain about calls when u blow a 16pt lead besides urself
A rough game, not pretty but a win on the road on night 2 of a back to back against a very hot Celtic team. Ill take it any time! Well done Spurs!
Mental toughness would mean we started playing well at some point in the 4th despite playing like the entire 3rd. We just got lucky though.
Parker is weak minded.
He looked rattled when teh Celtics started making their comeback. He refused to drive to the hoop and went outside his game, reverting to shooting 3s.
I mean, Parker shooting the 3 equals to a center trying to handle the ball for more then 2 seconds. C'mon now.
