    LOL. Accurate assessment, particularly for DMo.

    Damn, Spot on. If Clutch can find a way to pick this as the quote for the game on the front page that would be great--especially the Dmo part :grin:

    But they were battling for 8th seed not 4th seed. Big difference. If Goran was a clutch player he would not have let his team lose to the Lakers, lose three in a row, go o-fer from the three pt line in the decider. Our so called crappy Pg still got us an 8th seed last year with a completely new team.

    What are you saying is beyond stupid. Are you blaming Goran for the Suns not making the playoffs, as if bb was an individual sport rather than a team one? How about this, without Goran's near allstar performance this year, Phoenix would not be anywhere near the 47 wins for a near miss playoff spot?

    Some of you guys. smh... :rolleyes:

    they blew a 14 point lead twice then in the last 8 min they struggled to close out against the spurs bench.

    While Lin's shoot is off, he contribute on play-making, for the brief period at 1st half.

    Where do you think Asik's pts come from?

    Don't be delusional. The beard got us into the playoffs last year.

    Yep, and people shouldn't scoff at the fact that our starters struggled against the Spurs bench. The Spurs bench have been beating starting line-ups all season.

    Pretty accurate. Harden seemed worned out. I hope he doesn't play at all against Pelicans. Howard was very good but he is inconsistent with his post moves, you never know if he could make a hook in the next game. But his defensive presence is always there.

    No, he wasn't clutch when they needed him to be clutch. He only needed to play to his avg and they were in, but he did not. And he is a player on another team, so why are you so defensive about my comments. Oh yea, there was some positive in there for our PG.

    Pretty irrelevant seeing as how our starters basically beat their starters, not to mention we beat them 4 times this year.

    The Spurs only played two of their starters in this game.

    We played a subpar game against a sub-heavy Spurs team and still won. A WIN. Could easily have lost by 10.

    That's 2 more starters than they played against GSW when they beat them at Oracle Arena.

    0 or 3 starters the Spurs are never a joke.

    Its the excellent coaching and system that has kept the Spurs on top for a decade and that makes their bench team better than 90% of starting units in the league.
