They pulled it out but these young guys will learn how to close out games. Every game is a learning experience for them. Murray had a good game after a terrible game against Utah. Vassell had a great game. Keldon had to work really hard on the defensive side tonight.LawHall88 said:

Yeah, my post aged poorly. Gonna be lots of ups and downs this season playing the young guys.jteagle said:They pulled it out but these young guys will learn how to close out games.

Lamarcus wasn't on the floor at the end of the game last night probably due to limited minutes and Demar only scored 6 points.
This game was all about Patty and the kids.
I heard it! It was awesome!Enzo The Baker said:
Timmy is a guest on the ringer pod today. Really excited to listen.
Also if y'all didn't catch Timmy's appearance on Road Trippin with RJ and Channing from a few years back, I'd highly recommend it.
We are 4-4 with a pretty tough schedule so far. With the next few games against Minnesota, OKC and the Rockets they have good chance to expand that streak. As tough as the West is, they have to win the games against these lower tier teams.2008and1 said:
Well that's a 2-game winning streak I didn't expect.

I didn't see this posted, but this was a great interview with Tim Duncan on The Ringer Podcast
Edit: I see it was mentioned above.
He was, but he didn't really develop into a rotation player until after we had Bowen. Maybe if we have Bell, we don't spend our offseason 04 on Barry and we get frontline help, then no longer need to trade two firsts for Nazr.Enzo The Baker said:
I'm pretty certain Bell was cut before we had Bowen. If he fulfilled that 3&D roll, maybe the Spurs would never have had Bowen. Crazy to think about, especially considering his jersey is retired.
It was to dump off Malik Rose's stupid ass contract, too.Enzo The Baker said:
Wow. We traded two firsts for Nazr?! Crazy how much less draft picks were valued. And that's from the Spurs FO no less.

Malik + #30 in 2005 and #29 in 2006.
#30 was David Lee
#29 was Marty Collins, who sucked, but could have been Millsap.
Nazr was pretty important to that 2005 title run, so I think it was probably worth it. We needed a big guy to bang down with Ben Wallace and Sheed. Rasho was worthless. If our centers in that Detroit series was Rasho and Malik Rose, we don't win that series.

The amount of calls that we don't get is unreal. Even Demar doesn't get much respect.
