Why wasn't Findog playing too much??
Nice win.
The Spurs sucked.
Pop was a big part of it.
How long was he going to run the Tony/JVaughn backcourt? The Spurs were only down single digits when he decided that was the way to go.
Did Vaughn break a record for getting crossed over so many times?
One thing though -- Why did Sloan leave his starters out there for so long when the Spurs had already waved the white flag with Beno and Bonner in the game?
Why wasn't Findog playing too much??
Pop's lineups sucked. No Horry, no Finley (but people are saying he had a tight back??). Our defense was horrible in the second half, our offense was horrible in the second half, and we quit rebounding. The refs were horrible but that wasn't the reason we lost. I'm kinda pissed though because it's not like we were being pussies and not driving to the hole. We just didn't get the calls. Hope we can win the next one in Utah.
You have to admit that Utah did a better job tonight of cutting off the lane. Parker had to settle for alot more jumpshots tonight than in games 1 and 2.
The $20,000 question.
It couldn't be to have them "play hard to the end" like he did in game one.
It is always an injury risk to have guys out there. I can't imagine what he was thinking.
Was it for the crowd? Let them cheer their guys longer?
Good game for Utah. I will post game report and pictures but not tonight, I'll wait until I get home tomorrow night. Great start to the day and seeing the Spurs lose that badly hurt. At least the fans that were next to me were nice and respected me supporting the Spurs.
Spurs better figure out how to defend the pick and roll.
They haven't yet.
The Spurs better bring it monday or this series is in serious serious trouble.
Yes they did, but the Spurs got hacked several times and no call. Oh well, that's still not why they lost.
Look out, you're going to have Tpark questioning your coaching credentials.
In all seriousness though, earlier throughout the season some of us (myself included) had called out Pop for his curious fetish with small ball. Well, tonight it bit us in the ass.
If I ever see Parker and Vaughn in the backcourt again, Pop should be taken out back and shot.
BTW Pop
Im gonna think you were punishing Barry and Vaughn tonight leaving them out there to play more than Finley and Horry.
Thanks for putting in Beno, it let me let off a little steam at the GTG.
I'm glad he did that because it will fire our guys up on Monday.
Why dont you crawl into the road and die.Look out, you're going to have Tpark questioning your coaching credentials.
The Spurs have frickin sucked for 3 second halves in a row.![]()
I liked the in game slo mo's of it.
Pure class![]()
That's called being compe ive...Just like they did in Games 1 and 2 they are not quitters like the Spurs..
The Spurs have frickin sucked for 3 second halves in a row
Yup.
Their defense has blown ass completely.
Pop better ing tighten up the reigns and quick.
Wow...![]()

Really our offense too lost all rhythm once Duncan went out with those fouls. It was almost like we lost all our zeal once Utah kept countering us everytime we made a run. It was almost like we were waiting for them to lie down or something. I try not and worry about the non-calls. I lost all hope in worrying about the refs after that Dallas debacle last playoffs. They are going to call it how they are going to call it you know.
He can always dish it, but can never take it.Wow...
Congrats to the Jazz...you played really well tonight...you totally outplayed the Spurs...enjoy the win...it's the only one you're going to get.
Spurs in 5. BOOK IT!!!

Mama's basement getting leaky again? Better get out the pots and pans.
Oh, and the jazz.
Congrats for nothing.
Tonight was 1994 and 1996 all the over again.
Christ.
Props to the Jazz and their fans. They obviously wanted this game. The Jazz fans were as loud as ever and it looked like they came ready.
The Spurs have a lot of work to do. Part of the problem is the Spurs and their fans were ready to bust out the brooms. And like always in the playoff run, whenever the Spurs and Spurs fans are overconfident, the Spurs lose.
Time to put on hold the Finals preparation and start concentrating on this opponent. The Spurs unconscious shooting in the first two games won't be seen again. Take out the Spurs on fire touch and it'd be safe to say the Jazz have played the better series.
Time to buckle up and get this thing done.
