Starting Lineups:

Spurs:
PG - Tony Parker
SG - Manu Ginobli
SF - Richard Jefferson
PF - Tim Duncan
C - Antonio McDyess

Rockets:
PG - Kyle Lowry
SG - Kevin Martin
SF - Chase Budinger
PF - Luis Scola
C - Chuck Hayes

We're currently on 5 game losing streak, the worst losing streak we've had since 1997. We need a win but tonight we're going up against another tough opponent in the Rockets. The Rockets are desperate right now, they're 3 games out of a playoff spot and they've been playing some very good basketball lately. To win this game we're going to have to match the Rockets intensity level.

Go Spurs!!

I think its your bigs... McDyess not doing so well at that center spot. I think GP should start back Blair and bring in Mcdyess off the bench. By the way is Tim Duncan still hurt case he was limping a litte?

Hope to see you guys in the second round.

It seems like Duncan isn't 100% right now, but the truth is we really need him to play right now.

I'd also love to see Blair back in the starting lineup. He's the x-factor on this team, when he plays well we usually win.

Pop has given up to defense. He's choosing offense and our last 6 games were ****.

I'm tired of saying this, but Splitter brings defense and size. Nobody respect Bonner in that area..
Not including Danny Green or James Anderson, 2 good defensive players is too bad also.
There's no way we are going to win in the PO without defense. We can't score 110 points in the PO!!

Agreed. Bonner's been garbage lately and he's still getting a ton of minutes. This team needs more Splitter and Blair.
