By rss@youtube.com (thehoopsblitz) After missing all his field goals against one of the San Antonio Spurs' in-state rivals a week ago, Michael Finley tweaked his pregame routine in hopes that he would perform a little better against the other. It seems to have worked. Finley scored 22 points on Sunday and the Spurs picked up th...

This really was Veterans Day. San Antonio is a crafty, nose-to-the-grindstone team when it comes to defense. The Spurs play like grizzled guys who have been there so many times, it’s second nature. Even poor defenders, like Michael Finley, morph into decent stoppers, or at least hard worke...

Spurs guard/forward Michael Finley speaks with the media at Tuesday's practice.

By secretchord53(noreply@blogger.com) Michael Finley is another story. I argued at the beginning of the season that I felt Roger Mason, Jr. should be starting. I feel he gives us the same shooting that Finley does, but also gives us better ball handling, better defense, and better athleticism. Plus, Mason, Jr. is a rhythm and a confid...

There was a time, not long ago, when Spurs forward Michael Finley would have gladly taken on all comers in a team-wide slam-dunk contest.

Spurs starters were a perfect 10-for-10 from behind the arc and Michael Finley had 20 points as the Spurs defeated the Thunder 119-102 Tuesday night in Austin.

Michael Finley made five 3-pointers and scored 20 points in 17 minutes to lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 119-102 preseason victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night. The Spurs (3-2) made 14 of 19 3-pointers with Finley perfect from long range. Matt Bonner was 3 of 3 from beyond t...

By scrappy-doo When asked for comment, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich informed reporters between highly civilized sips of wine that "Mike probably had it coming. I mean, the guy is like, old enough to be my dad." before adding that he has personally almost shot all of his players at least six or seven times, tho...

By secretchord53(noreply@blogger.com) It's particularly hard to witness this lack of production from the role players, as Spurs' past is littered with just such players. Steve Kerr, Robert Horry, Michael Finley have all given us big, career-defining moments in the cauldron of the playoffs.

One moment, with New Orleans holding a four-point lead over the Spurs with 13 seconds to play, the Mavs were heading for the Rockies to face the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the NBA playoffs. One 25-foot Michael Finley jumper at the buzzer and a five-minute Tim Duncan-dominated over...

Mike Monroe of the San Antonio Express-News: "Michael Finley made a 3-pointer with 1.3 seconds left at Sacramento, giving the Spurs a 95-92 lead; replays showed the shot clock had expired before the ball left his hand; replay rules did not allow the referee crew to check a TV monitor to corr...

By John The Spurs are always able to find guys off the scrap heap who end up being productive for them: Avery Johnson, Robert Horry, Michael Finley, and Drew Gooden, just to name a few. Finley killed them with 5-of-7 3-pointers for 17 points, and Gooden in only his 2nd game as a Spur, scored 13 points o...

By J.E. Skeets 5. San Antonio Spurs — Fourth in D, but 14th in offense, and the lamer mark isn’t likely to get any better with guys like Michael Finley, Bruce Bowen, and (sorry) Roger Mason Jr. contributing as little as they do offensively over about 75 combined minutes per game. [KD]

By Robert Kleeman The Spurs defense after that first quarter did not lack effort. Michael Finley and Bruce Bowen bodied up Redd admirably and pushed him into fadeaways and long jumpers. Redd laughed off the pressure and tallied a 26-point night. Mason and Finley each took turns on Richard Jefferson and hara...

By www.sltrib.com(noreply@blogger.com) Here's the scoring numbers the Spurs came into Friday averaging followed by the numbers each player put up against the Jazz: Roger Mason (13.9) 29, George Hill (8.7) 23, Tim Duncan (22.8) 18, Michael Finley (11.0) 14, Matt Bonner (5.0) 12, Ime Udoka (4.5) 10, Anthony Tolliver (4.8), 5, Blake Ahea...

By 2757 Tim Duncan is really good. Michael Finley looks good, you know , for Michael Finley.  He still attempts the occasional athletic play, which 9 times out of 10 ends poorly but he definitely knows his role and is hitting anything remotely open. 

By Matt Moore The age old question when it comes to the Spurs is age. When is their highly touted veteran savvy going to give way to dragging feet and sore knees. For some, like Robert Horry, that transition has already come and gone. But what about the others: Michael Finley, Bruce Bowen, Kurt Thomas, Tim Du...

Michael Finley was open, but with such little time left, I'd have liked to have seen him without so much ground to cover before he could get into shooting position.Spurs fan Tim makes a great point, which I'll paraphrase: The takeaway message from Brent Barry's no-call was that Barry shoul...

By David Friedman 1) Phoenix Suns (8 points): Two MVP candidates--Steve Nash (2005 winner, 2006 winner, 2007 runner-up), Shaquille O'Neal (2005 runner-up); four All-Stars--Nash (2005-08), Amare Stoudemire (2005, 2007-08), O'Neal (2005-07), Grant Hill (2005). 2-4) San Antonio Spurs (5): One MVP candidate--Tim Duncan (fourth in 2005 and fourth in 2007); three All-Stars--Duncan (2005-08), Tony Parker (2006-07), Manu Ginobili (2005). Comment: Duncan won the regular season MVP in 2002 and 2003, plus he won the Finals MVP in 1999, 2003 and 2005. Parker won the Finals MVP in 2007 (Carlisle specifically mentioned Parker as an MVP caliber player due to this accomplishment). Michael Finley is a valuable reserve who made the All-Star team in 2000 and 2001.   [read the full post]

By dberri The Spurs mark still tops the league.  But as I told John and Deven, that mark is a bit misleading. Manu Ginobili - the most productive shooting guard in the NBA right now - has spent much of the season coming off the bench. Ginobili, though, plays more minutes than Michael Finley.  So one could ar...
