Actually, it was 7-0 after being down 0-1 in the 1st round, FWIW.

Wasn't he hurt like this on the trip to the finals in 2013 as well?
What does tony parker do?
OLD MAN RIVERWALK!!!
Man Blake is such a bad matchup for us this series because of Tiago's situation. Nobody else poses this threat down low in the west if we can just get past this series.
quote:He has worked very hard to improve his mid-range game and the results are devastating. He's downright dangerous out to 15-18'. He ain't gonna cool down because I'm afraid he's just this good.
I've never seen Griffen play this good
He is on fire hopefully he cools off
Without Blake the clips would be down big
quote:Just turned 39. His longevity is absurd. Well hell it was absurd 3 years ago. Now it's something past that.
Just as Timmy has helped the Spurs keep the lead
quote:He finally got healthy in February and started tearing crap up, so he has to have reinjured that hamstring. He looks nothing like he did a month and a half ago.
And Parker is playing terrible
He blew his hammy in the WCF that year and was hurt for the finals. He's been nicked up or straight injured pretty consistently since about '08. Even last year I think he played on a sprained ankle most of the playoffs. It just sucks when people laugh at the spurs losing when the starting PG is at half strength.
Tony parker broke the clippers defense in the first quarter
This is a war and pop is going to let Griffin shoot as much as possible
Sad that this is the only first round worth a **** and no one is watching

TBS just said the dumbest stat I've ever hear. Something like, "the Spurs are 7-0 after trailing by a game in round one with Duncan." Wtf...?
quote:He re-injured his hamstring in game 3 (the one in which Green and Gary Neal combined for like 60 points) and he could barely move by game 6. I might be mis-remembering, but I have a memory of Miller guarding Parker for a play or three (maybe after a switch) and Parker couldn't get around Mike Freaking Miller. It was that bad.

Honestly, if Mills weren't in foul trouble I'd want him playing 30 minutes. He makes Paul play really hard. Paul is shooting out of this world and TP is basically a non-factor with the bum leg.
Splitter's conditioning is definitely not back yet.
Belinelli finally showed up on defense! If he can combine effort with his brains to the defensive end, he becomes a pretty dangerous two way player.
Tim Duncan. I'm running out of ways to describe how great this guy is. He turns 39 Saturday, he's matched up against a 26-year old DPOY candidate, and all he's done is drop 16 points on 8/9 shooting mostly in postup iso.
Last time we drew the Clips, Griffin wasn't much of a player. He could run and jump, but he had no outside shot, no post moves, and only the most rudimentary court sense. That has changed big time. He doesn't always shoot like this, but he's playing smart and getting himself and his team tons of great looks with his versatile post game and passing.

Chuckin up shots from half court with the Bobcats
He got a few solid contract offers after that year that SA didn't match, so he bolted. He's done okay. His shooting percentages have dropped, but he's been on some really crappy teams that don't generate good looks (and as we well know, Neal's taking the shot whether it's good or not, so you'd better get him a high percent one).

From David Aldridge' Twitter:
Father Time will ultimately beat Tim Duncan. But he'll need deep tissue massage, employer-approved leave & several cognacs to fully recover.

Ulrich, I think you're the best SA poster on this board. You always provide high quality commentary.
I agree about Parker. CoJo doesn't have Mills' range, but he's got a fairly good pull up jumper out to 15' or so, which means he isn't a complete liability on O (and it's not like Parker has much more range that that either. Just let them take turns hounding Chris Paul for 40+ minutes and make Griffin score 50.

Timmy!!!
My god Timmy
Eff
That's the thing about Duncan. He's rarely put up the monster numbers that put him in contention for the scoring title, but that's more because he's happy to pass up shots so that somebody else on the team can get a better one (and even for longterm team harmony, which is important for building a dynasty). But when the team needs him, he is more than capable of stepping up and scoring like the rest of the all-time greats. Even at thirty freaking nine.
So many missed shots
Pull Tony now please Pops.
quote:Duncan is 10/12 and the rest of the team is 12/34
So many missed shots
We should be up double digits, but missing wide open shots
Tony is killing us.
TP pretty well useless right now.
Tony is just hurting us right now.
Cannot pull away.
And wtf is up with the Clippers owner?

Tony 0-5
Danny 1-4
Manu 2-6

We're playng bad defense too
Tony is just bad right now.

Is Pop trying to prove a point by leaving DG on the bench??
