AMERICA SLEPT ON A GREAT SERIES!
"America must decide what it wants from basketball.
Shoot or get off the pot. Don't plead for teams to
play the game ''the right way,'' then condemn the
Spurs and Pistons for being boring. Don't gripe
about egomaniacal players who care more about image
and numbers than championships, then say you don't
appreciate Tim Duncan because he lacks charisma.
Don't complain all year about the Malice at the
Palace brawl and the disintegration of NBA
character, then say the Finals have no pizzazz.
Either slurp it up or spit it out." -- Jay Mariotti 6/22/05
Ooops! Sorry that was Duncan on the rebound. Here he is after a hard foul.

Duncan hard fouled.
Posted by: amalia at June 16, 2005 12:48 PMEEEeee! That hamster picture looks like Duncan holding the NBA trophy in 1999 after he beat the Knicks!!!
Posted by: B at June 16, 2005 12:26 PMactually, gordon said ferret, cause his face and body are more ferret-like, but then I found this picture, and it could be duncan training...
Posted by: amalia at June 16, 2005 12:19 PMGame 3 = FEO for Spurs...I go back to my original prediction: SPURS IN SIX!
And someone in SanAnto once said watching Tim Duncan play is like watching an overgrown hamster taught how to play perfect fundamental basketball...
Posted by: B at June 16, 2005 07:30 AM"boring"? duncan is a pillar, sure (few signs of emotion, but even fewer mistakes). but together: manu & parker are as fun to watch as anyone - billups & wallace, shaq & Dwyane, stoudemire & nash... any moment, one of them's likely to shock.
Posted by: kip at June 15, 2005 06:52 PMAw man! What's that all about? Manu Ginobili?!! Tony Parker? Big FUN Duncan? The stifling Spurs defense? The Robert Horry last-minute shot? The POP system of coaching???
You can't tell me those Ginobili shots in Game 1 weren't thrilling! THE FORCE IS STRONG WITH THIS ONE!

The feeling in the Raleigh house is that, while an excellent team, the Spurs are one of the most boring NBA teams ever.

Posted by: raleigh at June 10, 2005 11:38 PMO.K., so game 1 is history. How are you feeling? Will the "force" be with the Spurs? Can the son of Darth Vader, "Manu Skywalker," pull it off?
