Bump
Horry : I thought he did a good job defensively on Odom, and wished he played more minutes in the 2nd half. Moreover, when the Spurs tried to win the game with a 3, it looked liked he wanted badly to take that shot, which means he is 100% in playoff mode.
Barry: He had a 3 in game 1, and had a terrific game vs the Lakers earlier this season. I'm not sure how he can match up defensively vs more athletic players, but his IQ, passing, shooting, calm and confidence will be more than welcome.
Bottom line: they should play more, especially with Finley and JV sucking; I can't take this anymore

Yay ! Someone agrees with me !![]()
Definitely. I was at game 1 and honestly, it scared the living daylights outta me everytime Horry was on the court. Also, on that last play when Horry inbounded, Kobe went over to Lamar and yelled to him, "Don't leave Horry under ANY cir stance... GO OVER THERE AND STICK TO HIM."
End of topic
Ps. I must admitt lefty that your threads brings fresh view and all around intrest from fans all over the world.
You were at the game? Lucky you !
Kobe knows Horry well; I wish Lamar left him open though
Yeah I've had the flu all week, but I sucked it up and went. At one point, I ran to the restroom and hurled out some food. Not good.
It was a of a comeback...! I'm thinking about going tonight but I need to take it easy. There is no taking it easy playing the Spurs though.![]()
No problem

Now wheres my 20 bucks?!
yeah I would like to see Brent get some more minutes especially if Manu plays like he did last time.
Short answer yet depending on game situations.
With Finley one has to gauge whether or not he is hitting his shots. Usually you can tell within a few if he is on or off. That would require an offensive in-game adjustment, something Pop is very dim at.
Barrdog could run the backup point for small stretches and has done so successfully the few times Lord Poppy has allowed him to. Especially with a 20 point lead. Oh no wait![]()
For sure both of them should see more minutes.
Is 88 minutes enough for them to see?
Not to mention that both Rob and Brent didn't play as much as the other key players in the previous rounds, so they can bring fresher legs
Barry, definitely..Finley shouldn`t be getting any minutes over Barry IMO..Brent is superior to him in every aspect of the game..
it`s Horry time right now..I`d rather see him instead of KT, because Kurt doesn`t really have anybody to defend since they don`t have any big bodies outside of Gasol..
I don't know about Horry, but I would definitely play Barry over Finley if I was Pock.
Good point.
And if Duncan is in foul trouble, Pop can alternate btwn KT and Fabs
Yes.
I want Barry to shoot some timely 3s and extend the defense.
And I want Barry to knock Kobe on his @ss.
better than havin finley on the court
Ok soon you guys want to play some 40 year olds heavy minutes....Horry is no more than a 8-10 minute a game player who needs all his energy to be able to shoot the ball at the end of the game and Barry wont be able to guard anyone on the Lakers even though he will make more 3's than Finley
if Finley misses 2 consecutive 3s. sit his ass down and put Barry in.
Horry WILL get a lot of minutes. Pop was specifically saving him for game 2.
Definitely
Horry will get up for his series, and we could you Brent hitting some 3s
We don't necessarily want them to play heavy minutes, but more than what they have played so far.
