    Unbelievable how Tony Parker career really has shaped out...

    That mid range game really made him unstoppable in the past 3 or so years...

    And all in the first half...they realized the secret in beating the Warriors...winning at the guard position by making Curry and Thompson play D...and run the shooters of the 3 point line...

    it's to stop people fouling when there's a clear motion to shoot, the defensive team shouldn't be gaining the advantage out of the foul, unless you shoot free throws dwight style.

    Parker has finally shown up. Golden State is in trouble.

    I understand that. And you're right.

    I just don't like it. I never have.

    Not sure what Curry being invisible has anything to do with the different ways they ball, but ok.

    My point is the way Curry plays, he's prone to being rendered "invisible", while the way Harden plays, he's virtually always impacting the game one way or another.

    Sometimes it's a double-edged sword though, as Harden can work himself into large stretches of inconsistent play.

    Parker's mid-range game has been unstoppable for much longer than the past 3 years.

    GS has kept it close, with Curry and Thompson being no shows.

    Now Klay is heating up, with Curry yet to follow.

    Uh-oh.

    One thing I love about Mark Jackson is that he doesn't subscribe to the "starters have to start the second half" philosophy. Carl Landry clearly made a huge impact in the first half, so Jackson started him in the second half.

    It's a small way to reward your guys during the game that I think can go a long way.

    Isn't David Lee ok to play?

    I'm surprised he hasn't been subbed in yet, this half.

    Ginobili clearly changed the momentum with those two flops.

    Curry better show up in the 4th. Otherwise, it's probably 2-1 Spurs.

    That BS 4th foul on Bogut when he cleanly blocked Duncan changed the momentum.
