Ack.
It's hard to blame anyone for that loss. Bonzi continued to play out of his gourd. Artest was unstoppable in the last six minutes or so. Bibby hit a big shot. Martin stayed in front of Parker. Miller played serviceable defense on Duncan most of the night.
Let's see... who can I blame? Adelman coached rather well - he called some well-timed time-outs for a change, and went with the lineup that was best performing. Hart didn't destroy the team when he came in as Bibby (Mike Bibby!) had foul trouble (!!). Kenny Thomas was pretty much a Hack-a-Duncan guy, and Shareef had some nice shots and some horrid turnovers.
Hmm. Who to blame, who to blame? How about President Bush? He's from Texas, right? So was Lyndon B. Johnson - let's blame him, too. In fact, I blame the entire state (republic?) of Texas for that Texas. Screw you, Texas! Screw you! (Except Lance Armstrong. And Sandy the Squirrel. Y'alls are OK by me.)
Chalk it up to the defending world champ holding court in a must-win. It sucks, but it's life in the NBA.
Let's hope the execution can be stayed until Sunday, at the earliest.

Hey now!!
Bonzi Wells.... Free Agent Extraordinaire
Criticisms...
Well...we sure coulda used some 'd'....
Im taking a guess and saying the league wants
Amidst all these one game suspensions, Dirk Nowitzki gets a $15,000 fine. Whatever. It's B.S.
What do you guys think?

we played a good game
mike in foul trouble killed us
we should look for another back up pg because the team is very disorganized when mike is out
kmart or cisco better learn how to handle the ball and break a full court trap
i have a question, who defends tim better? brad, reef or kenny? because tim really torched us at the end of the game
i don't really think we should try to shut tim down
i think that we should try to shut down manu because good things happen for the spurs when manu is playing well
I agree about manu...his dribble penetration...
he has the most D.C. possible tall p.g talent, but he needs more focus as he dribbles up court. he gets intercepted a lot, K-Mart too. They both need to knock that off.
I like 'Reef defnsively on Timmy, but we need him so much in our offense to have him get into foul trouble even if he his coming off the bench, I dunno, even if Brad is having a good offensive game I haven't really noticed that he has an effect in the King's defense.
I think the league is in love with Dirkie. Maybe it's a reward for the Chuckster(sir Charles) calling them week & soft until they got the Little General in.
Why not SAR on Timmie
Reef/TD
And that is why Reef is so important. I think RA pulled him Tuesday due to the fouls AND a couple bad turnovers. But Reef is the only King that can get TD into foul trouble. We need more Reef.
Do you get the impression
I've noticed Adelman doing this in the past with certain players - maybe he just doesn't like the way they contribute to his "system" and is looking for an excuse to remove them from the equation.
Good thing for Bibby and Miller he doesn't have the same policy across the board. :)
LOL!!
I agree about keeping 'Reef on Timmy. He's the only one that seems to work on him.
