Lee still isn't clutch I see. Terribly officiated game, but missing two free throws to lose it. DamNNNNNNNNNNN! We need to blow out minnesota to save some face tommorow.
Exactly. Who would have thought that that lineup could almost steal a game in SA? You have to play good defense in the 4th quarter to win games. Ishmael played Parker better than Brooks and Lee play Ginobili better than Martin. Also, they ran the offense instead of taking the first quick shot.
I was impressed with Shane and Scola. Ish did good things but they were almost canceled out by those bad shots. I mean 1 made three doesn't mean you're a good jumpshooter, jeez. I appreciate his effort though. We should have focused on getting the ball to Scola more. If only Scola wouldn't have passed and shot those free throws.
Agreed, this is the first loss where I've felt good about our team. Coming front behind and forcing overtime with one of the top teams in the West without 3 of your best players is nothing to be ashamed of.
I didn't say Lee was the closer on this team, I said no one is as of now. You are right he missed FT's when they needed them the most, but without his effort they may not have even been close to winning...
I am still on total shock right now. I never in my DREAMS though we would be without a win at this time, and now the injuries AGAIN. Just so depressed.
Bench players gave a lesson of heart (despite the blunders due to lack of experience), hope the rest of the team takes notice....and I hope coach prepares better plays for Scola to finish(and more often), and the victories should arrive.... Scola is likely to score, or to pass to an open teammate, if he's playing normal, he will rarely take dumb decitions....at least until the wins-losses balance is improved and the team is out of emergency, that should be the main strategy...
I sort of Cringed when I saw Scola Pass off those FTs. Isnt Scola a really good FT shooter? I dont remember him missing alot of FTs from last season and this Season.
Shane should always play that aggressive, I miss that Shane. He shouldn't just step it up whenever a player gets injured.
Um Ish might have played slightly better on ball defense than brooks but the result was still the same. Duncan didnt win the game, it was parker and manu...
Can someone tell me why Yao didn't play tonight? How did we collapse? They came back at the end... that's the opposite of a collapse.
I'm sure it's been said, but GOD I HATE THE SPURS. I live in Austin, and all I hear about is this flopping, filthy team. I still hate the Jazz more, but San Antonio's not far behind.
