Michael Finley doesnt know what defense is.
Learn how to block out instead of getting manhandled for a rebound AND a putback when all we need is one stop to win.
Thanx.
Michael Finley doesnt know what defense is.
12 points 8 boards.
Ginobili didn't help block out either.
I see he has switched from Parker to Finley.....
Finley actually has been playing decent D lately. He ed up on that play and didn't box out, but he has been doing a lot of positive things defensively lately.
You can't really knock him for getting beat by Iggy. Look what Iggy did to Manu.
i hope all you ppl on here that hate on finley don't jump on his nuts in the playoffs when he is playing good
If Finley would've boxed out, AI would've went over his back gotten it and still made it.
THe guy can freakin jump out of the building.
Sixers did a good job of intentionally drawing Duncan away from the basket so that the Spurs would only have 4 guards to rebound a miss. Tough break, but Webber had too much room to shoot anyway.
We all know you hate Ginobili, but watch the replay T-Pork. Ginobili blocked his man out on that putback with 1.1 seconds left. Finley just let himself get assraped.
FIN also missed a clutch FT that could have prevented OT.
If you're gonna complain about them missing 6 Fts in the last 7 minutes of basketball.
Finley could have won it in regulation if he would have sunk both.
TRUE...TRUE!
Michael Finley played like Michael Finley. I'm not sure exactly what Spurs fans are expecting out of him.
Lets all complain about every loss, then when we win praise someone that helped them win, then go back to hating them when they lose.
This is why I lurk.
Oh yeah, hate him with a passion.We all know you hate Ginobili
Almost as much as you hate Tony Parker.
Iguadala was doing it all night, not just there.Finley just let himself get assraped.
But vent and hate Finley all you want.
Ginobili can be lumped into that as well.Finley could have won it in regulation if he would have sunk both.
I have no qualms about Ginobili nor Finley missing them.
It is rare that they both miss em, Ginobili especially is money with FTs and Finley has proved to be as well.
No worries.
Have a good break boys, come back rested against Seattle.
What I don't get is the logic that Finley's one FT miss cost us the game. There were certainly others who missed a FT in crunch time.
?Michael Finley played like Michael Finley
So he played bad.
Guess those clutch shots and rebounds he was grabbing were just "Michael being Michael"
Oh yeah,
Devin not only would've made the FTs, he wouldve gotten the rebound, run to the other end, and dunked it all in one move.
How silly of us to think good of Fin.
Don't jump to conclusions, Mr. Overreaction. LJ is just saying that people shouldn't expect so much of him defensively.
Simmer down.
How is what I said negative?
I thought he played pretty well today and hit a key jumper.
Hard to read into Finley is Finley.....
I thought for a Maverick, he played damn good D.
Even Van Exel played some damn good D on a bigger stronger John Salmons at times.
Iguodala is a VERY tough matchup for a guy like Finley.
, he was beating manu around pretty good too.
A lot of us were praising FIN and saying how clutch he would be. All he has done is shown up when it least matters. The answer is wait till the playoffs, but that. FIN is a volume shooter that requires a lot of shots. He can get hot now and then but that isn't happening. If he doesn't want to show up, he can the the team's official ball packer cause they didn't have any... again
Why did you have a hard time with Barry than? You've been defending Finley no matter what he does...and he hasn't done . He's been shooting like ...Yet for whatever reason your the number one Finley fan. I used to get knocked for defending Barry, but your pretty amusing in your refusal to write anything critical of the guy...classic.
As for defense, he has not been playing any better defense now, than he was at the beginning of the season Kori...
Pop and I disagree.
The 4th quarter didn't matter tonight??All he has done is shown up when it least matters
Interesting..... What game in the second half did you watch?!?!
Total absolute bull .As for defense, he has not been playing any better defense now, than he was at the beginning of the season Kori...
Because hes been here for a year.I used to get knocked for defending Barry
Because he knows the schemes, he knows the plays.
Yet, continue to force guys down the middle of the lane.
He will continue to pass up open shots when he should SHOOT!
I don't know how many times a game when Barry is in, I scream shoot the damn ball.
Its gotten old, and I think finally Pop has had enough.
WTF?
You do know I'm on record as saying I'd rather have Devin than MF, right?
Damn, people don't read anymore.
