Warriors vs. Spurs THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY BORING.

Last night was filled with all sorts of depression and despair. One of my favorite players, Stephen Curry, suffered a painful defeat in San Antonio. While Golden State Warriors is a very good team, San Antonio Spurs was dominating over the game. 

The key players for this game would be Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.

First, Tony Parker is a well known veteran. He was in the association for more than 9 years. His career shows how much improvement he went through. This player has the ability to handle the ball, distribute the ball to the right teammates, and shoot the ball with his favorite and signature moves. 

This player's favorite move is "The Tear Drop." Literally, this shot looks as if a tear is dropping. The ball arches over the defender creating a arch shaped like a rainbow. As a result, it is very difficult for the defender to guard the man while the offender is showing this move. However, for a move this hard to guard needs a long time to perfect. In my opinion, Tony Parker is one of those players that developed his skills throughout his career in the most standard and hard-working strategy. 

The other key player to this game would be Manu Ginobili. This player is also a special veteran in the league. He has spent more than 14 years in the association and his skills are extremely valuable to the Spurs. His favorite and best move would be "Fake and then drive." This player has the ability to trick the opponent very well, and then lead other defenders to guard him by dribbling to the basket. When other players are guarding on him, he usually finds an open man and lets him shoot the ball without a defender. When he has a easy traffic to the basket, he finishes at the basket with a strong move. 

However, I am not a big fan of the Spurs. Spurs have the tendency to make a game terribly boring. On the other hand, Warriors have the tendency to score many points in short time and get the crowd in to the game. I would have to say that Spurs have the best fundamentals in the association. 

With these veterans in the team, Spurs were able to guide them selves to a victory over the Warriors.
