How long do you want to ignore this user?
Just need to close this thing out on Sunday and let Denver/GS go 7 games.
The Spurs shot the lights out, especially to start the second half. The Lakers had three guards suited out (two of which actually played halfway decent for a half). The Lakers never had a chance.
The season was over when Kobe went down. It's a miracle they're even in the playoffs at all with all their injuries and lack of chemistry.

That grin is priceless

Duncan's reaction to Howard's 4th foul.
The thing I was most disappointed in was the rebounding. The Lakers are a very good rebounding team and SAS is a poor rebounding team. How you get crushed on the glass like last night is beyond me.
I've said from the start I didn't expect to win the series, but I expected a much better showing.
Pau did have his 3rd triple-double in his last six games. The trade market for him should be interesting.

No way Pop should play Diaw for game 4, even if he's ready. They need him ready to go for the Den / GS series so that he can round back into form for the WCF, especially with Tiago now dinged up.

Duncan was having fun out there.
The Spurs rebounding has picked up in the playoffs the last couple years. I wouldn't call them a poor rebounding team. They don't have the greatest numbers but when the effort is there and the guards are hitting the glass, SA is a solid rebounding team. A lot of group rebounds instead of 1 or two guys dominating the glass night in and night out.
On another note,
Cory Joseph is by far and away our 2nd best PG on this team and he's been playing great. He isn't going to blow anyone away (Except for darius morris) but he's really playing good defense, helping on the glass, and running the offense well. The added jumpers are just a bonus. Pop just wanted someone to do a jacque vaughn impression and he's doing it. He isn't afraid of physicality and big moments.

And now World Peace says that he is doubtful for Sunday's game.
Splitter out 'indefinitely'. Could return for round 2 according to Pop.
Yeah. Goes along with the 7-10 days.
Joseph has improved quite a bit, he seems to be more comfortable out there lately. It's fun watching someone who is so obviously happy to be playing basketball whether he's getting paid or not. And I like him a lot more than Jacque Vaughn.
Any chance T-Mac dresses?
Hope so. His second round cherry won't count as popped otherwise.
With Diaw and Splitter out that opens up a spot for TMAC to be dressed. I hope so.
I have a feeling that Howard is going to do something stupid today.
I have a feeling as well, you know the guy is frustrated and is gonna wanna take it out on someone.
If the Spurs close it out tonight, they're guaranteed to be off at least 5 or 6 days. The rest will be golden come round 2. With the big 3 all healthy, look out.

Timmy just gonna keep on schooling him
Baynes starting at Center tonight in place of Tiago.
Hopefully he can contribute and stay out of foul trouble. Great experience/opportunity for him.

Tiago Splitter just walked into Staples Center. No longer on crutches, so that's something.

*Warning: Armchair coach opinion inbound* I think if Tiago *had* to play tonight, he would.
And there it is. Nice, Dwight.
Spurs playing OK so far. Why is Baynes so tired already? Shouldn't he be conditioned the whole time he's been on the roster?
Howard is such a skill-less hack. Has to be the most overrated player. Just fouling and elbowing everybody out there. That's all he has. Wow he can dunk. impressive.
McGrady suited up tonight.
howard plays solid defense.
Harlan said baynes would only play 5-6 Mins a quarter
After his solid D against Howard, may have to bump that up
He played well

Keep it up, Dwight.
