<div class="quote_poster">Quoting deestillballin:</div><div class="quote_post">Play Hack A Spur . </div> Haha, I can see why you said that. Spurs suck at free throws. I pick San Antonio though, defense beats offense.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Trip:</div><div class="quote_post">I pick San Antonio though, defense beats offense.</div> Nice preview, I think this game is going to be a tough game. I agree with Trip, but all defense wont do any good as well.
Would someone please play defence on Tim Duncan? You can't let him get his way, or he will make you pay all night long and he's doing it tonight with 16 and 16 at the half.
