Spurs Vs Grizzles Thread

[wiZe]

this series has gone exactly how i thought. all that media love as well as some guys here was sickening to see. Memphis had no chance because their offense isnt built to win a series like this. some of you said Gasol and Randolph were plenty of offense.. no idea how you thought that. even worse lots of folks thought they were the best matchup for Miami..

It's an exaggeration to say Memphis had no chance to win this series since the last two games went to overtime.

the spurs are what you get when a great coach & a great player stay in one place and build a competitive TEAM.

today's 'nomad' players: cp3, howard, melo, deron williams, etc. will spend their entire careers trying to build THEIR perfect team instead of playing bball & letting the GM do his job.

Let the GM do his job? One the GM has to be on the same page

2. How can a GM do his job when the Ower is always acting as the defacto GM?

Jerry Jones, James Dolan to name a few

Pop is a great coach and I don't even think that is up for dispute. Unlike Brooks, Spo, etc.... when the Spurs come out of a timeout, it's almost an automatic easy bucket. I can't even count how many times just in this playoffs I've seen them either get a wide open spot up three or an easy layup out of a timeout. That's a small example but it's something great coaches tend to do. Plus, he's team has pretty much been a contender for damn near two decades despite rotating a gang of different players every season.

But you're one your own on that statement. Duncan is by far the greatest player at his position so clearly Pop had the luxury of having the best player in the league on his team for multiple years.

What are you talking about "by position"? I said the nigga has never had the best player in the league. So Duncan was head and shoulders the best nigga in the league in his prime? Ya'll have a crazy way to remember shit.

So Tim Duncan was better than Kobe in the prime of his career?

Yes nigga. There were several years where Duncan was the best player in the league and especially better than Kobe. You could anchor an entire squad on both sides of the floor around Duncan. How the fuck you gonna be the best player at your position of ALL-TIME and never be the best player in the league at any given time? You sound crazy. Duncan has 3 FINALS MVP awards dawg..THREE!

Oh I didn't get the memo Tim Duncan was the best power forward of all time even over Malone and Barkley. I thought it was debatable but shit man according to you its not.

And you niggas get stuck in this "rings" shit. Ginobilli got 3 rings so he's one of the best 2 guards of all time? Spurs system wouldn't work without Duncan but let's don't sit here and act like Duncan was the only nigga on the team. He had a GREAT head coach and had a GREAT supporting cast.

If you care anything about defense it's not. Neither Malone or Barkley have had the success on the defensive end that Duncan has had. Barkley was a defensive rebounder but never good-great on defense. Malone was an average defender.

Like I said, you can anchor an entire defense around Duncan. Even in his 17th season, he was a defensive player of the year candidate.

And you niggas get stuck in this "rings" shit. Ginobilli got 3 rings so he's one of the best 2 guards of all time?

You sound like a fucking idiot. Aint nobody arguing for Robert Horrry. Duncan is not a fucking ROLE-PLAYER so why are you even comparing him to fucking Manu? Yes muthafucka, leading teams to championships as its best offensive and defensive player actually has weight.

Who ever said that. He's had a great coach and a soild teams around him. Duncan has also won titles where he was the ONLY all-star on this team. He wasn't playing on stacked teams.

lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooo

E, if you dont stop beating the shit out of that little nigga



tears**

 

[killa kadafi191]

Got dayum eewwll.

 

[BDR]

Eeww giving niggas 2 piece and a biscuit

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

Tim Duncan wouldn't get no rings if he was in the east

who do they beat in the finals? the best east representative

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

grizzlies advance over the clippers minus blake griffin.

grizzlies advance over the thunder minus russell westbrook.

welcome to WORSTern conference basketball.

dishonest.

you point out key injuries that worked in their favor and then you call it the worst conference.

like the bucks weren't the worst team to make the playoffs in YEARS

like chicago wasn't down 3 starters and got 4 game swept after a lucky win

like the knicks who are 1 dimensional didn't get the #2 seed.

the west has suffered injuries. the team fully healthy with players is peaking. we'll see what they do in the finals.

You're buggin like shit dtowns.

Duncan has also won titles where he was the ONLY all-star on this team. He wasn't playing on stacked teams.

Cats forget titles two and three where all he had was Dave Rob limping on a bad back giving you 8 and 8 and a young subpar Tony Parker who stayed in Pops doghouse and was getting benched all year and heavily in the playoffs for Speedy fucking Claxton.

 

[D-TOWN REP]

yall don't mind my nigga dtown

sometimes he gets stubborn and will reach to make his point

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Tim Duncan a 2 time Allstar

Made that nigga fisher cry

And eewwll know about 2005 finals with the Godbert Horry going man of steal

Me and eewwll talk about those bulls pistons battles till this day

 

[HeathCliff]

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot Damn they done fucked around and pissed my nigga E off in this bitch.

Something for those saying Memphis might regret trading Rudy Gay

this is what he shot last year in the playoffs

Damn

 

[Amajorfucup]

Its no coincidence the team had its most successful season the moment they got rid of Melo Junior. Gay is a small time low percentage chucker who is not only near useless beyond 10ft, but he also amazingly manages to almost never go to the free throw line due in large part to poor shot selection.

1. basketball fans today ONLY look at the offensive side of the bball. they love players like melo, rudy gay, stoudemire, griffin, etc... motherfuckers who don't even exist on the defensive end.

of those named above, amare stoudemire is the WORST defensive player (for the $$$), in NBA history, IMHO.

2. today's basketball players seem to only think that 'stacked' teams can win it all. they wanna pull-off a lebron + wade + bosh, "big three," but they don't wanna sacrifice on the $$$ they want/desire.

i personally consider mofos like cp3, deron williams, and dwight coward CANCERS to the teams they play on... straight 'coach-killers.'

Tragic. Memphis is playing for pride now....

 

[HeathCliff]

lol sticky for the sweep

You thinking its gonna be a sweep Large?

I hope not for my folks sake back at home. But then again one of my homeboys got me feeling some kind of way. He's a Kobe stan who turned Grizzly devotee after a disappointing Laker season and the dude been blowing my phone up about all this bully ball shit since they went 2-1 against the Clippers...Talking about the Heat ain't ready for the Grizzlies...see ya'll at the top

 

[manVzone]

lol sticky for the sweep

As horrendous we been offensively I don't understand when Zack gets doubled,why dont he just kick it out to the open man. He made Okc pay for the double teams,but some reason we not incorporating that. I know we got intolerable shooters but I never saw Zbo kick it back out. I'm not that knowledgeable of basketball x/o's so shine some light for me on this

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

espn is so ass i don't even know what time the game come on. im dreading watching it on the channel

game 3 was the game. they were supposed to say ok yall did yall thing at home but we the motherfucking grizzlies break your motherfucking self.

they didn't.

might not be a sweep
but unless zbo and gasol grow a pair of nuts then i don't see a miracle happening either.

duncan/splitter/diaw should have fouled out of all 3 games by now.

switching the lineup up playing folks that shouldn't be playing that type of shit.. just don't make sense.

should be a real fight tonight.

but you're dealing with this guy right here

this is one cold dude...

this the same dude who told the judge he too busy to get a divorce right now, he playing. fuck them kids fuck the wife let me handle my business then we can do what you want

 

[4 Dimensional]

espn is so ass i don't even know what time the game come on. im dreading watching it on the channel

Lol. I ain't got shit else to watch tonight. Might as well get in what little bball we got left.

well
ima just be real with you.

if westbrook had played yall would have been at home.

and let me make another revelation.

these shots the spurs are hitting
are the same shots that durant was getting to his teammates and they were missing.
if those duds hit those open shots yall been fishing already.

thing is.

you don't have a shooter.
or go to guy from the perimeter.

traded him away.

you need about 60 points from your 2 big fellas cause the one thing the spurs can do.. and prove they can do is score.

they can't necessarily stop anyone. but you guys can't shoot
so they just stand in the lane like they waiting in line for the movies
and the refs don't call it
and the refs really can't call it cause they don't blame the spurs for not guarding any of your outside shooters
they wouldn't do it either

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

Lol. I ain't got shit else to watch tonight. Might as well get in what little bball we got left.

ima watch it on mute and listen to the final countdown on repeat

See this is the shit I tried to tell my homeboy.

He booked the Grizzlies to be the finals since round 1 cause he felt that since they were abusing the Clippers and they were deemed to play a Westbrookless/Hardenless OKC, the Spurs would be easy work like how they were two years ago.

 

[ansatsusha_gouki]

Nah let's be honest. the hgh they got in san antonio is finally kicking in, they finally got the right cycle going and all their players are healthy.

duncan/ginobli/parker sit out like 25 games a year just cause and the spurs still get #1/2 seed.

whoever they face in the finals is going to be in for some shit. cause these dudes don't fuck around. they play right.

its funny

their defensive specialists leonard/green are their best 3 point shooters.

they have a great point guard who lives in the lane

and if they give it to duncan its a bucket.

defensively they can improve a lot but that offense is hard to stop because they run a correct one
one that comes from 4 different angles.

all they need is ginobli to play with sense and they can damn near beat anyone
