i take nothing from this game, good or bad. simply put, this one was mailed in after 3 minutes. we got good looks early, tay just messed up and couldn't finish, and overall led to a terrible game. i'm glad flip kept delfino in so long, and i wish he woulda kept him in there the remainder of the 4th quarter. lindsey and delfino were by far our two best players on the court.

the most accurate way to describe this game was that SA treated it like a playoff game, and Detroit treated it like a preseason game. or, when you have a practiced team playing against a pick-up team. even the atmosphere was like a preseason game.

there was horrible traffic and everyone showed up late. tons of guys brought their gf's and were more worried about getting them drinks than cheering (actually the women were louder than the men by far). i could have had a conversation with someone across the arena, and i could hear the hecklers courtside and actually make out what they were saying. there were 2 marriage proposals, the halftime entertainment consisted of 15 guys shooting a halfcourt shot, and mason wasn't even there to announce. at the start of the 4th quarter, there was one lower bowl section that had 30 out of 126 seats filled.

both the fans and players couldn't have cared less. even worse, the only women left at the end of the game were not attractive (all the good-looking ones had left with their dates by this point), and my buddy refused to go to captain's quarters to hang out with automotion (booo).

and there were definitely a few insanely hot ladies there who must've been paid pretty well to attend, if you know what i mean.

His defensive effort is always there though. He becomes really effective when others ratchet up the defensive intesity as well. Last night, the other 4 guys were also doing some major harrassing during the comeback.

If Lindsey is the only one playing hard, the other team can easily just avoid him.

Maybe we learned something about how not to play Spurs.
Save it for the playoffs.
