Parker has gone back to his old ways and is hiding in the playoffs. He turned it up the first game and has been gone the past two. If he had not shot 4-13 in game 3 spurs would have had it won. Then the turnover by Manu, that is not like him, i hope they both turn up because they cannot beat anyone else if they play this way.

He is not the most consistent player in the world, but besides Dirk and Tim Duncan, who is? As far as Manu I hear you but don't be too concerned. Manu got lazy on that play which was uncharacteristic but that happens when you got a few rings and you're up 2-0 as a 1 seed against an 8. Kings were lucky to pull out a win out of that they really have no business contending in the series, although it's clear they have weapons, the Spurs have too much cohesiveness and mental toughness. God put the Kings in the first round to wake the Spurs up so they're ready for the next round.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting VinsanityVC15:</div><div class="quote_post">the spurs already got this locked.inless the kings pull off a impossible</div> ah yes, BUT, if they pull off the impossible, wouldnt that mean it was possible and therefore not impossible?
^ Good point. The Kings are CLEARLY not the typical 8th seed. They have two players that nobody has any answers for because of their size and style of play, Artest and Wells. Artest has instilled toughness and scrappiness back into the franchise. There are other stats that i think are being over looked as well. For example, im pretty sure the Kings have outrebounded the Spurs thus far in this series. Who wouldve thought that would happen? Anyhow, if Popovich can figure out how to get Parker his usual layup drill against the Kings then i think the spurs can take it. Manu is done . Artest has taken him out of the series. If the Kings can remain disciplined in turning Parker away from the lane then I think theyll have a really good shot. I love the playoffs....

yup! what timmyd said, BUT, you have to add get more defensive rebounds and limit the kings to like 1 offensive rebound.
If im the Kings ive got to feel good about game 5. The spurs shot 57% and the Kings still managed to force overtime in San Antonio. Im actually starting to like the kings chances even though theyre down 3-2 now.
It may goe seven games, just think though Bonzi scored 38, if the rest of the kings would've scored the spurs would be in trouble. This coming from a spurs fan
SPURS will tighten their defense this time. They have not be playing their regular defense against the Kings. They will win it this time in SUCKtown...oppss I mean SACtown.

What they need to do is put marks in so he can knock the hell out of bonzi and put him out for the game, that is the only way they can stop him. Just kidding
