Am I the only one that thinks the "Hero Ball" advertising campaign is retarded? Especially after the Spurs put on a dominant display playing team ball last season.

I SWITCHED WHICH SIDE OF THE COUCH THAT I AM SITTING ON AND WHICH WAY THE GF IS LAYING AT THE CHANGE IN OUR GAME.
Don't worry all, I am not moving.
I don't criticize Pop ever, but why bring Patty off the floor just after he made a 3? If it was me, I'd leave him in there another couple minutes and let him build some confidence

My little brother doesn't watch basketball but when we play he yells "Kobe!" when he jacks a shot up.
It's why 90% of the nation can't name more than 2 Atlanta Hawks.
The announcers for the Memphis game were talking about the "hero ball" as well, but apparently tnt is trying to get hero ball to mean team basketball like the Spurs play. Who knows. I think it's dumb either way
This won't be popular, but Parker is trash right now. Slow. Hesitant. He comes on and all flow and ball movement instantly stops.
At least he just made his GD free throws.
Which is why I posted above about patty
Leave him in or cojo is quicker right now

Clippers look like crap!
Whomever is in charge of teaching our bigs to pass should get a raise. Baynes with a great pass to Tim to take the lead.
Not unpopular. I will say that he does have a tendency to just hit a switch though.
quote:Yup. Should have been an and 1 too though. Griffin straight up swiped Duncan's head there.

To me, a major difference in this quarter so far has been the Clippers started to go back to what always ends up killing themselves... Trying to play 1on1. They started the game flying up n down the court moving the ball all over. Now it's 1on1 dribbling trying to create their own shot and their suffering from it
Spacing is infinitely better right now, which is leading to our better ball movement and open looks.
Just to add some non-Spurs commentary, CP3 needs to drive the dang ball when he gets a mismatch. The clippers have looked really hesitant in the 2nd quarter on offense. The Spurs are good at forcing the Clips to take those midrange jumpers.
Pop like Tony on the pick-and-roll but LA is trapping off it and Tony seems confused about what to do. He can't find passes because he's got Paul and a big trapping.
To beat it, he has to spilt that trap and get fouled.
Interestingly enough, LA isn't playing anyone else that way. Manu is getting the normal switch and mismatch, which is why he's so much more effective.

Spurs do a good job baiting people into this. Paul can take Tony all day long, but we rotate quick and force him to take a mid range jumper or dump it to Jordan who can't make a free throw.

Same to whomever teaches them to set off-ball screens.
Commercial breaks at every stoppage of play.
So their own player is shooting a free throw and the crowd chants ref you suck? It's amazing how many of those chants have occurred these first games. If the home team commits a foul, the refs suck apparently
Spurs are so boring that NBA.com/Spurs shows their photos in muted color.
Leonard and Parker just can't play together right now. Parker's confused and Leonard can't get good shots on his own with good shot blockers in the game. Everything from Leonard is a jumper.
Few made 3s will do that.
His knee went right into Tony.
And Tony down again. Eesh.
That's just a bump no real injury just hit square in the quad.
Tony needs to sit right now
Chris Paul is a flopping ****.
WHAT THE HELL Chris Paul!
What a GD joke
What a GD joke
DJ with the block despite being held by Duncan
WTF ref that idiot Austin was dribbling out of bounds.
Duncan with 3 fouls. He's gotta be smarter out there.
