I remember the game the team won against the Spurs at the Oracle last season so it is not like we can't beat them. The run and gun and swarming defense has to be in full effect for the team to win.

I disagree. I'm not sure if you watched the game that we won, but Biedrins was the key factor in that victory, matching Duncan's performance. We didn't really use a whole lot of small ball. In order to win, Biedrins must produce big-time. I expect him to get some big tick.

I've got that game still. Right now, the team wins with small ball and the run and gun, swarming defense game

That's definitely true, but the Spurs have clobbered our small ball consistently. The only exception was when Biedrins had a huge game. That's what we will need (if Duncan plays). The Spurs have figured out how to beat smallball, so that's why we need Biedrins to step up.

Now, we have a chance in the game. They really need to keep the role players off the stat sheet. Barry, Bonner, Finley, guys like that cannot dominate the game. So far, Bonner has. They need to keep up the intensity, as this game is winnable. GO AND GET IT!

Man, everyone is hot. They really need to keep up the pressure, though, as San Antone is a real team. For anyone wanting Marco to play, this might be your game. He is dressed. Whether or not he plays remains to be seen, though.

Thank you Tim Duncan for not playing tonight. BtW, we're up by 15, but Baron's shooting 5 for 16 and SJax is shooting 4 for 13? We're fortunate. StuckInSoCal (GSW for life)

He has a tendency to turn the ball over if he is dribbling it upcourt or through traffic. His best skill is when he can pass it without putting the ball on the floor, or as little dribbling as possible. That pass that he made to Biedrins behind the back was an example of this: not a lot of dribbling, but enough to draw the defense. He can certainly pass.

If this game goes to a game of free throws, I DO NOT want Ellis, Davis, Jackson, any of them shooting them. Bring in Croshere and Hudson. I, for one, am willing to live and die with them at the line.

People started chanting, "Shoot the Three! Shoot the Three!" It would have been so awesome if he would have made it. People like him, though. Too bad Nellie doesnt.

Nellie likes him as much as he like Wright... plus there isn't much PT for him, even with only 2 minutes he still missed his defensive assignment..got lucky...

apparently you were typing your post the same time as me, typing pretty much the same thing "2nd quarter won it" ...great minds think alike
