    Blame this loss on the awful play call to end the 4th quarter.

    No movement, no picks. Nothing.

    Delfino thinks he is a much better player than he is.

    I agree. Lin and Harden are the only serviceable PG on the team. TD is best at spot up shooting those 3s. Whenever TD is running the team, disasters happen...

    I think this team need someone like Tyson Chandler that can catch and dunk the ball real fast...Osik is too too slow and a horrible catcher.

    You forget that he subs out who is hot and leaves who is cold in the game. Oh, and he keeps in Toney Douglas.


    BTW, anyone notice how TD is SO MUCH BETTER as an SG???

    So he was trying to hit a last second game winning two? There was not enough time left. The best we could have done is jack up a quick three and hope for a Reggie Miller repeat.

    I still say that lame iso play to end the fourth was a killer. The high pick roll was working why go away from the play that was working.

    No, a score would have made it a 2 possession game. Wing and a prayer, but better than giving up.

    Happy with the team's performance considering it was the Spurs. Too many turnovers from the team in general, but hard to be too hard on them.

    It is the Spurs.

    Aye aye. I am really really happy that Lin played Terrific. He's got his jumper back evidently judging by the last 3 games but mann its just so heartbreaking these games sigh really its just AHHHHHH. Well Im gonna go and um, do something, maybe just walk this one off.

    Delfino needs to learn that he's only a spot up shooter. The sooner he learns to accept that, the better.

    Proud of the team though.

    - Chandler looks like he is playing in pain to me.
    - Great to see Linsanity for a game. I hope he keeps being aggresive.
    - I absolutely hate the Spurs! It's so damn hard to beat a team when the officials will not blow a foul on Tim Duncan in the 4th quarter of a close game.

    I hope this game is a learning experience for the coach. Mchale should now understand how to properly utilize Lin's talents.

    Certainly the most undisciplined defense for sure.
