Parker isn't scoring and getting to the basket. He's been taking a lot of jump Shots and he can't shoot. They can't score in the half court. They still have some good 3 point shooters but have been cold. They need more from Danny Green.

They've been to 2 straight NBA finals, and are getting everyone's best shot. They are drained. If they make the playoffs they'll be fine but the season will be the harder task for them

Parker had 0 FT atts, Ginobili did have 4 atts but shot a pathetic 50%.
Ginobili shooting the lowest FT % of his career............................. I do remember Ginobili in last years playoffs he cost the Spurs some covers by missing FT's at the end of games, 2 years ago Ginobili was a mess, playing like a mistake prone rookie in the playoffs and had a huge gaff in the finals in game 7 that cost the Spurs big time down the stretch.
Why Pop even had him in the game considering how he played up to that point is still a mystery
I was reading some-one said Parker has lost his explosion, can't excelerate the way he used to, which makes sense considering how he's playing, he can't get to the basket and finish.
Of coarse it could be lack of motivation considering 2 trips to finals and becoming champs last season. Other teams are consistently bringing big games and the Spurs don't match that intensity, I think the odds are against that theory. .

These old geezers can only get it up for a championship run every other year, and this ain't the year.
The reality is that in today's NBA a really good veteran team can be beaten on any given night by a young athletic "game" team. That is some of what has been happening here. But the larger picture is that the window is closing with this particular group.
But rest assured the organization is probably already devising a plan to reset the course next season and get back on track - but if you are waiting around for this group to be the team they were last year it won't happen.
