Why does Pop want us to suck?
A few questions remain unanswered...
Would we have won this game if Pop actually had been ejected? I say yes.
Pop is insane? Yes.
Would we have won the le this year if Pop hadn't been in love with forcing square pegs in round holes?
And a closing statement...
David West isn't the second coming of Jordan...he's just being guarded by shooting guards.
Remember that as we get outrebounded, as our d gets broken down, and as we get posted up for this loss.
Luck.

Premature ejaculation forum.
as whottt aces another thread.
But truth be told, the Spurs won this game playing a style that will get them KILLED against anybody who can rebound in the playoffs.
We won because Jacque Vaughn was able to box out David West when nobody else could.

After the game, thats just about the only point thats still valid.
Sorry but we got lucky to win this game...
This is a ing team fighting for a playoff bid and we make them look like the 97 Bulls.
Finally we won a game playign small lineup to close out a close game...it's like the first time this year.
Exactly. The Spurs can't just jack up threes and hope for them to stop falling.
But hey, a win is a win.
And props to JV, Barry and Timmy for coming thru.
IF you guys think this point isn't valid, you just aren't watching.
Barry coming up big in the fourth for the first time this year is luck?
Interesting.

The point is valid. The thread is just funny.
I was saying in the game blog that I didn't get why they went small for the majority of the game. I thought maybe Elson got hurt, but that wasn't it.
A win is a win, who gives a . Manu and Tony dont always play like dog , so next time we will do better
Yawn....
Barry isn't ever on the court for the 4th....
Barry always hits big shots when he's given the chance to take them....Always.
Are you saying he chokes them? Examples please...
Anyway...this wasn't Pop's wet dream small ball lineup...Manu just was having an off night.
Normally Barry isn't on the court to hit those shots...for like, his entire Spurs career.
owwWWWwwieee!
Barry? the better option was Bonner....
in Spurs ain't winning this year.
I have too much respect for TimVP's basketball a en to take any of his criticisms of Barry seriously...
Let me elaborate....After the game, thats just about the only point thats still valid.
Ahem......
SMALL BALL
Well, I don't.
Wait, that didn't come out right . . .
Just to play devil's advocate for a minute, guess which Spurs lineup has the best +/- over the last ten games?
That's right, small ball. Parker, Barry, Finley, Bowen and Duncan = +29
I hate small ball as much as anyone, but the blame can't go all on Pop. Small ball has worked at times this year and when the Spurs three bigs outside of Duncan combine for 2 points and 3 defensive rebounds in 36 minutes, it's hard to put the blame on Pop for going with something else.
Against, the Hornets, small ball works because West is smallish and they don't rebound overly well outside of Chandler. But yeah, sometimes it blows up in Pop's face when he tries to play small ball against aggressive teams that will fight you for inside position and rebounds *cough* Ruben Patterson owning Michael Finley *cough*.
As long as we don't see small ball in the playoffs, I can stomach it against the right teams in the regular season if the bigs are doing nothing.
Where's that Forest Gump t-shirt when you need it?
"Small ball happens."
(*cue a muddy smiley face on a shirt and a running shoe covered in feces*)
Tonight ed around and beat the Hornets.
Damn right it was a good day.
