"I'm not carrying that energy or confidence I had last year," said Ginobili. "But I can't be thinking about that the whole season. I'm just not playing that well, and I'm trying to get out of it."

<font color=""Black"">Injuries played a major role for Manu this year. And TP isn't playing like last year. I hope they snap out of it really soon. </font>
He kept taking it hard to the hole, but he was struggling to finish. Same with Parker. Hopefully for them they can both get going.
They need to step it up like duncan has, the rest of the bench too no one had done anything to put the spurs over the top the past coupe of games in the playoffs. They need to WAKE UP or else they will be watching the finals at home.
He did great of the bench yesterday. I remember last season he came of the bench during the playoffs. But, to bad they lost yesterday. Hopefully he keeps it up so it can help them win 3 straight.
The downside of having international players are the extended play for their country they feel compelled to be a part of in the off-season. It is hard to go through 82-games and the entire playoffs, only to compete overseas and barely have any rest to do it all over again. The human body no matter how well-conditioned can only take so much.
Parker has been playing well this series, and Manu is finally coming around. His energy is what sealed the game for us, last night, and hopefully, he can continue to translate that in Ws for us.
