If Manu is the X-factor, Bonner is the Y-factor. Spurs this year live by the 3, and Bonner is usually part of their game plan.
I don't think you even could compare Bonner to Manu. Every rotation player is usually part of their game plan, but not equally important.
Of course not, what I mean is Pop usually plays Bonner plenty of minutes, maybe more than he should, which makes me to believe that he thinks Bonner is a reliable option when it really counts.
The Grizzles just fight and fight. Always keeping themselves in the game....but there is the Manu flop...
The only thing missing from this series is the teams disliking each other. Everybody is trying hard and leaving it out on the floor, but some nastiness and anger would make it more fun.
Amazing...Memphis has two beasts down low and they're shooting jumpers and not even giving them touches.
Memphis needs to pressure hard here and go for the steal. The Spurs are prone to making a inbounds mistake.
