He pulled his groin sliding on that sticker. I hate those stupid $+$ stickers at midcourt. Just asking to get someone hurt.
Miami vs Cleveland 1st round matchup would be the most epic playoff series ever....

Two random things....
1. Dirk is lucky he won that ring last year....I think anyone else would have gotten KILLED by the media for taking a 4 game mid-season hiatus for conditioning.
2. Was it me, or did Pop try to put a "Larussa-like" stamp on the game last night? Yea, the bench brought the team back in, but I wonder how things would have turned out in the crunch w. some of his starters on the floor? Seemed like a throw-away game to me. Pop was feelin' himself a little too much last night and ended up getting burned.

^ I completely agree. It seems like he's been given a free pass for that, which I don't like. It doesn't matter that you won a championship the year before, you have to show up in shape and ready to play. Especially after having about 2 1/2 more months than you would normally have because of the lockout.
Yes, Dirk winning a ring was a good story and everybody's happy for him, but its unacceptable to go into the season out of shape and then have to sit games out to work on your conditioning no matter who you are.

I see no problem with what Pop did last. Parker and Duncan didn't look interested in the game. You go with the squad that got you there.Originally Posted by Beware The Underdog

Wasn't a throw away game SPURS were losing at one time by 16 mid 3rd.
I just thought that if the starters got a little burn in either the late 4th or in OT, things might have been different.
*"throw away" was probably the wrong term, but I didn't like Pop's rotations towards the end.
Only guy Pop shoulda brought in was Tony Parker, Duncan wasn't gonna add nothin, dude is Shaq circa Cleveland/Boston days.
As for Pop, eh, if the clock was .6 instead of .5 he woulda won the game, so really can't blame him for it. His starters were getting washed.
And Dirk is learning very simply, a 9-10 month season takes a @#$% load out of you. And him not expecting the season to start on time may have caught him a little, but he played 100+ hard fought games last year, gotta expect a bit of a hangover, not to mention he's probably trying to pace himself better now that's he's older too.
And as for someone saying unprofessional, get the @#$% outta here with that @#$%@#$%. That ain't nothin but troll speak right there. 100% pure troll. And oh, look how many dudes up in here catchin on. I've shown the light.

Duncan had more points then dirk going into OT and played less min. Yup Duncan is wash up.
Or maybe Duncan is pacing himself like dirk because he is also old? So why does Dirk get a pass? Cause dirk won one chip? Duncan has four and 3 finals MVP.
Jason Terry also played in those finals carry that team in game 6. So why doesn't he have a mini 7 day training camp?
Um how much does this "dude" get paid? He can't just run or go shoot a couple of jump shots a day?

It's not like he's the only one who came into the season out of shape.... the entire league did.

I know seriously it's getting old. Don't even want D12 to win a title wherever he goes. He's acting like he's entitled to something. Go out there and play and shut the #%+! up.

VC wins a game on national television with his defense (this after dropping 21 in 30 minutes).

It very well may have been a different ending, but dont you think the upside of what he did is far greater than the addition of 1 win in a column? Think about the valuable minutes and end of game/crunch time playing experience gained by having the subs in that whole time. Pop may need one or more of those guys to contribute significantly at some point late in the season. That group started the comeback and had momentum so why alter that by putting guys in who have been sitting on the bench for awhile.
It's one game, a short season with a lot of games in a short time period and the reserves got valuable playing experience. I dont really see a negative to what he did.

Not sure that I'm following....the upside of Pop going w. subs (for experience) is greater than getting a W? I just think he rolled the dice and ended up failing. Yea, it was a matter of .1 of a second between a win/loss, but I would have liked to have seen TP or Duncan out there in the crunch. Subs get all the props in the world for bringing the team back, but adjustments should have been made in that situation. Especially w. Dallas clawing back into the game.
*Also...I peeped the SA game thread on Real GM, and there were 26 posts by the time the game was over. 25 of them by the same guy
