We can't play D and grab a reb
SCORING DROUGHTS!![]()
![]()
we go on these 4-5 min stretches where we cant hit a FG. rebounding we can fix. these scoring droughts are whats killing us. we either have a big lead, hit a drought and end up losing the lead, or we hit the drought early and then have to rely on the defense to bring us back.
what do you feel is the MAIN problem this year?
We can't play D and grab a reb
There are several:
Scoring, Lack of Rebounding, defense, offensive breakdowns, free throw shooting...again, turnovers.....this list goes on.

Rebounding is probaly the Spurs achilles heel throughout the season. I remember TimVP bringing this point up earlier, during the Corey Magette discussion.
He said that as soon we lost to Dallas and he said we needed Evans the Spurs got Elson and now we sucks
7 minutes without a field goal today against the heat in the 4th quarter! the game was close up until that point. PATHETIC!![]()

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner.
We always survived with bad offensive teams but not having D is killing us
No D, no Rebounding, Scoring droughts, No real Center, No real backup point guard... but at least the FO saved money.
I thought the Defense was decent up until we hit that scoring drought.
the problem is when our players cant hit shots the defense starts to suffer as well.
it happens everytime. we are playing great defense, hitting our shots, playing hard. then when we start suffering without a field goal, everything else falls apart as well.![]()
Exactly.
Droughts are going to happen to any team. But when you can't get a stop or a rebound, you aren't going to win.
The Spurs got outrebounded in 11 of 13 playoff games last season. And they continue to get beat on the glass this year.
Freakin' Jason Kapono got double-digit rebounds today.![]()
Although our D hasn't been good, there's not much you can do about what Dwayne Wade just did in the 4th quarter. No player on earth could have stopped him from doing that. It was his day, he was on fire, and the ball was gonna go in no matter what.
The Spurs won 3 championships with teams that underwent horrific scoring droughts. The difference was that back then, this resulted in 5-minute stretches where the Spurs outscored the opponent 4-2. Now it results in a 12-4 run for the other team.
Rebounding was and should have been a chief concern for the coaching staff and anyone else who watched this team last season. It was perpetuated during the playoffs, as Kori mentioned.
Somehow, and I didn't think it was possible, but it's gotten worse this season.
This team is awful this season. No significant injuries, and yet, they're one loss in New Jersey from being the freaking 5 seed.
I mean we have so many guys on the team that you just don't want on the floor, and we're expected to win a championship? Oberto nor Elson, our centers, were in the game to close the fourth. Beno, we don't want him on the floor. We don't want Vaughn on the floor. Finley is awful on offense, so do we really want him on the floor? Horry is old and slow. Do we want him on the floor for logn? Outside of our big three, the team is terrible.
Okay, if you think D and Rebounding is the only problem, you don't have a got damn clue.
Also, I am sick of Bowen getting shots with 20 seconds left on the ing shot clock.
Bowen ing blows. Wade rubbed his nuts on Bowen the whole fourth quarter and Bowen enjoyed it.
This team can't score, can't steal, can't rebound, can't play ball. Plus they look like they don't give a out there.
They ing quit when Wade hit the two jumpers and Walker buried the three.
Keep on playing the softness when the problem wears a in suit on the sideline.
The Spurs took 25 three pointers today. It's because they can't get anything else. Because they suck.
it's gotten worse because our centers are crap, oberto and elson combined for 38 minutes and 10 boards while jason kapono got 11 boards in 25 minutes.![]()
No one said the only problem dumb .. the question was MAIN problem.Okay, if you think D and Rebounding is the only problem, you don't have a got damn clue
Get a got damn clue.
The Spurs have a lot of problems.
Rebounding
D
Age
No center
No backup point
Subs utions
...
Today, they were outscored 31 to 20 in the fourth... 55 to 39 in the second half.
Try skill level.
Oh... let's get bonner back.. is that the board director's take?
The Spurs just ing suck.. There are 2 many things to single out...
Bowen is now a liability. he can't shoot, he is getting used every night... But still, the board is still on his jock? Why? Hey, retire his number and move the on.. it's time to win now....
Rebounding and D my ass... Try skills, heart and passion. This team plays like they already won something...
Spurs now "winning" at 53 - 29 rate, and they don't seem to give a .
Is this the beginning of the end of the Duncan/Pop era?
I am also sick of the Spurs being on national tv... They aren't worthy...
Also, Duncan was wide open for a slam/layup, whatever and got rim checked...
What the is that?
He. Can't. Jump.
He's almost like a taller Chris Webber in terms of athleticism, but he's better at the game.
