Then Duncan misses a FT to let Houston go for the 2 to tie. Then Ginobili takes a buzzer beater shot 3 seconds after the buzzer.

It is like they can't try any harder to lose.

that was a nice charging call.

Bavetta is just gearing up for the series at Staples.

Ginobili steps out of bounds to turn it over. And Bonner throws down the 3 ball way after the whistle blows. It's like a nightmare.

what is with old, bald guys and hating the spurs. him and crawford must suck each others dongs lemon party style.

spurs are just trying to embarrass dallas earlier in the playoffs.

This is unreal. I don't think any NBA team has ever had best record in April and collapsed quite like this.

These Spurs are BAD. They'd not even be a playoff team playing like this.

Playing like a bunch of idiots.

I flipped off the tv... I swear it looks like they are trying to lose. The only payoff I can see for dropping a spot in the standings is playing Mem/NOH then DAL while LA plays Mem/NOH then OKC. Doesn't seem worth giving up home court though.

It really is hard to watch this team shoot themselves in the foot during the end of the game.

great analysis. truly groundbreaking work.

if i were pop, i would trade bonner and richard jefferson for a new ankle brace for duncan and some rogaine for ginobili

Take off your Spurs glasses for a minute. They are 3-7 in the last 10 games. Those kind of teams don't even make the playoffs. They are REALLY playing horrible right now. They are making mistakes you don't even see in the college game very often.

I don't see how this isn't obvious to you, since it is to everyone else.

It is such un-NBA like play, it makes you wonder if they are throwing games or mentally unstable.

i'm not saying they are playing good, dipstick. i'm also not starting threads talking about the offseason like you.

they played hard and came back from 11 down on the road on the second night of a back to back against a team desperately trying to make the playoffs. it's not that ****ing bad. settle down.

they still have the same team from an awesome regular season, and you are pronouncing them dead upon arrival. quit crying like a ***** and watch what they do in the first round with home court.

The Rockets have no realistic hope at the playoffs.

The Spurs have a lot more at stake than the Lotto playing Rockets. But keep polishing that turd.

Matt Bonner is vanishing down the stretch, Jefferson whiffs on more dunks and layups than anyone I've ever seen, DeJuan Blair has dropped off the face of the Earth, and Pop started screwing around with lineups. The first two I expected. The last one doesn't surprise me.

The Spurs turning into an unclutch team with Manu/Parker/Duncan on the court is really odd. It's not like they were just missing shots either, I swear it looked like they were trying to run out the clock when they were down in OT tonight.

I said it earlier this season and people fussed at me for it: Manu is extremely overrated with the ball in his hands in the clutch. He tries to force things that are not even remotely there rather than make the easy play.

You didn't have me fussing at you for it. Ginobili with the ball to end the quarter / game is similar to Sloan. You can pretty well chalk it up to either a driving strip turnover, contested shot with no air under it, or an errant pass to nobody.

I don't see why Tony doesn't get more end of period possessions. Hell, even throw it down to Duncan for the final sequence. He's the most clutch guy on this entire team for the last 12 -13 years.

Give me more Bonner...

NOT...
