    Manu's hand heals and someone besides Tim can do offensively...

    Manu, Tony, and Finley have been horrible offensively as of late and Tony's defense has been almost non-existent as well. Worst of all, only one of these guys has a legit excuse for their tacular offensive production.

    Otherwise our defense, except for that one abberation against GS, has been pretty solid. Now our offense blows balls.

    Can someone please go to Denver to pick up Michael Finley's jumpshot?

    Oh and someone tell Pop that Rob belongs on the bench until March.

    Is this the same Michael Finley who had been the second best player on the Spurs for quite a while?

    Go away.

    Finley hasn't been the problem. Besides the Clippers game and tonight he has been one of the most realiable Spurs.

    The Spurs haven't played consistent defense for any significant stretch in about a month.

    Spurs need to get something out of the center position. Oberto, Elson, and Horry are struggling, collecting DNP's, or reserved for garbage minutes.

    And the bench is too up and down. I know injuries to Ginobli and Barry are a big reason for that but Bonner, Udoka, and Vaughn are never on the same page.

    No need to hit the panic buton because the Spurs always struggle then pull it together but I don't remember it being this hard to watch the last couple years.

    Personally I thought Oberto was solid.

    The numbers didn't show it, but he fought hard, and played well.

    but I don't remember it being this hard to watch the last couple years.
    Oh please.

    Much ado about nothing. Did the Spurs at this time last season played like they are playing now? I want to see if they pick it up after the All Star weekend like they did last year before I say anything.

    Yeah but you can attribute that to injuries. Besides how many teams out there you think would love to have that record?

    I get worried every year about this time when other team's start looking better than the Spurs. This team always pulls through and gives an honest effort at playoff time and wins championships like no other. No need to worry, but sometimes I can't help it! I was more worried last year when Dallas was rolling towards 70 wins and the Suns were crowned champs by the media...then reality set in!

    I don't remember the media ever saying the Suns were going to be the champs. Sure they would say they would contend for one but all the talk was Dallas and thier 67 wins that is until they ran into Golden State. I was actually hoping for Denver to at least extend the Spurs to 6 or 7 games to wear them out but they let me down yet again. The Suns actually got a good road win in San Antonio in Game 4 which I thought turned the series in our favor but then........................ the Spurs swept Cleveland in the Finals. My memory is fuzzy after Game 4.

    Maybe this is their year off? I don't know how to otherwise explain it... They don't have any desire right now. If they are doing this poorly in a month, then these guys will be planning their summer vacations early.
