VENUE: AT&T Center, San Antonio
BROADCAST: My35, League Pass

Preview (http://www.sportsline.com/nba/gamecenter/preview/NBA_20081206_GS@SA)

Figured I'd try my hand at a game blog since no one has started one yet. No more hiccups...we gotta win games like this. Hopefully the momentum of our big win carries on through.

[DPG21920]

Lets get this done boys! Bonner with a huge game!

[mVp]

:flag: :flag: :flag:

[Manufan909]

Manu-leading scorer
Timmy-leading rebounder
TP-leading assists

I'm going to be conservative this game, though I almost picked Hill for assist leader. Will there be a vbookie for tonights game?

[benefactor]

We need to crush them tonight. We are the far superior team and we need to play like it. I won't be here for the play by play but I am DVRing it and I will be around later. GO SPURS GO!

[Manu20]

George Hill with a huge game tonight.:toast

[benefactor]

One more thing...with Golden State's wide open playing style this will be a good game for Mason to get back in a groove from distance. I say he scores over 20 and sinks at least 6 threes.

No 'sorry' needed. Just sharing the wealth. I wasn't even going to link it but the local stuff is there if anyone was interested. :)

[Otaku]

Any online feed tonight?

[Anti.Hero]

This time last year Bonner WTFPWNED the warriors.

[mystargtr34]

I expect Bonner to put up another 25 and 17 game tonight.

[mystargtr34]

Fin will have a pretty tough time Maggette. Might be a good time to throw Ime in for a bit if he starts to over power Fin and Bowen.

[duncan228]

Warriors call on LP.

[Spurs1234]

dam GS call, they love GS call on LP, very rarely is it not there call, no matter who they play.

[WildcardManu]

our bigs gonna pull down alot of rebounds with the small warrior lineup

[Spurs1234]

segment on the spurs dynasty coming up on GS call, thats unbiased, I like the one color guy for GS, they are one of the better teams, and not that biased. Seattle is very biased, as i recall, amongst others.

[mystargtr34]

Oh shit Bonner guarding Maggette, i thought Wright was starting.

[jhuan16]

Bonner will drop 20 tonight!!
Go Spurs Go!!!

[8ft.tall.tejano]

damn, i'm stuck at work w/no tv!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

TP from Manuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[jhuan16]

2 easy lay up...

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner guarding Magette

TD missed the dunk but TP scores

[Fundamental]

TP with the teardrop!

[Juanobili]

ok this should be an easy win :)

[Spurs Brazil]

TD big reb and assist to Bonner

[Trainwreck2100]

i actually yelled at my tv for tim to make that pass

[jhuan16]

Bad defence by warrior. This should be an easy win for spurs.

[Spurs Brazil]

TP with the teardrop!

Again

Manu to Bonner for 2

[Fundamental]

repeat from Parker.

I want to see Mason get hot tonight.

oh shit, with TP and Manu all over the place it will be hard for Mason to get many opportunities.

[mystargtr34]

Manu setting up early

[Trainwreck2100]

layup drill

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs scoring very easy inside

TD from TP!!

Spurs 14-8, Warriors timeout

[m33p0]

great start :clap

[Frenchise player]

Worse defense ever

[8ft.tall.tejano]

ok this should be an easy win :)

don't say that...we got a history of blowing "easy wins"

[mystargtr34]

When will Don Nelson give up his mimmick lineups, 35 years and counting.

[Manu20]

Manu with 4 assists with 8:11 to go in the 1st Q!

[Anti.Hero]

AND I THOUGHT THE SPURS LEFT A HOLE UNDER THE BASKET.

Warriors are pitiful.

[mystargtr34]

Manu with 4 assists

[Fundamental]

don't say that...we got a history of blowing "easy wins"

Easier the win looks, the harder it is for the Veterans to play an A+ game.

[Jobbs]

the Finley butt kissing by the Warriors pbp guys is almost ironic

[Fundamental]

Gotta love Manu when he's hitting his 3's.

[tp2021]

man i wish i could see this game...I asked my friend justin if i could watch it with him, but he doesn't have the channel.


*cough cough PM*






EDIT: Nevermind! They're freakin showing it on the CW.
Only quality program they have. :lol

[HarlemHeat37]

daamn, I thought we'd see our first "Manu shot" since he came back..I miss those amazing circus shots where he doesn't even look at the basket..

[mystargtr34]

Manuuuuuuuuu

[Anti.Hero]

Tony that was beautiful man.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu tres!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG TP!!!!!!!

[jhuan16]

Corey Maggette vs Jamal Crawford.
Who is more selfish?

[Jobbs]

Hill!

[m33p0]

my thoughts as i saw tony parker drive against 3 defenders:

"The Warriors are a really bad defensive team."

[Anti.Hero]

Hill should be able to get at least one great dunk on this team.

[ShoogarBear]

LOL, Cavs-Bobcats was 14-2 at the end of the 1st quarter.

[tp2021]

Finley dunk!

[Fundamental]

Finley!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley DUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ShoogarBear]

Finley dunk???

Warriors should quit.

[jhuan16]

Finley!!!!!!

[Anti.Hero]

Spurs are going to score 200 pts tonight.

[WildcardManu]

tonight's game is a clinic on how big ball squashes small ball

[tp2021]

Finley dunk???

Warriors should quit.

Let's play them a little bit longer! :lol

[Anti.Hero]

LOL, Cavs-Bobcats was 14-2 at the end of the 1st quarter.

lmao

[ShoogarBear]

Was that Maggette guarding Fin on that dunk?

[Manufan909]

Fuck, I Cant Even See This Game!!!! God Damnit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

2PF on TD

[HarlemHeat37]

Finley needs to finish that, it's a layup..

[tp2021]

I've seen players just straight mess with other players on the dribble, but never a team messin with another team with passes!

[Spurs Brazil]

Was that Maggette guarding Fin on that dunk?

No, it was Watson

[mystargtr34]

LOL, Cavs-Bobcats was 14-2 at the end of the 1st quarter.

I think thats a screw up with yahoo.com

[tp2021]

Oberto draws the charge on Drago Lite!

[Fundamental]

offensive foul biatch.

[Anti.Hero]

Don Nelson "He's a flopper"

[Spurs Brazil]

Azabuike just block Oberto

DAMN

[Fundamental]

3 minutes without a bucket...

[mystargtr34]

Try keep it at 10 till the end of the quarter without TP and Duncan.

[Spurs Brazil]

TP and Hill together now

[mVp]

Finley for 3333

[Fundamental]

fin broke the dry spell

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley 3333333333333333333

[ILoveOranges]

George Hill has some crazy long arms

[jhuan16]

Good to see Hill attacking the rim.
Nice ball movement, Finley for 3!!!

[WildcardManu]

good rebound from Hill

[ShoogarBear]

I think thats a screw up with yahoo.com

You're right. NBA.com had it 30-14.

[Spurs1234]

hills arms are so long he can also finger roll his free throws.

[Frenchise player]

Lots of blowouts tonight

[Manufan909]

It's Elliott

[Juanobili]

Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuceeeeeee

[Fundamental]

BRuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuCE!!!

[mVp]

LOL this is too easy...

[tp2021]

Sean Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Lu ck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_ should get into coaching.It has 2 T's.

[WildcardManu]

LOL this is too easy...

Just hope Spurs don't loosen up

[tp2021]

This has got to be demoralizing for the Warriors.

[ILoveOranges]

No passing whatsoever from the Warriors. Quite different than the spurs

[Fundamental]

Here we go. I want to see Mason have a hell of a game. He needs to start feeling like he's part of the Big Four...?...

[Juanobili]

Aw that wouldve been sick

[Spur-Addict]

SE: "Give those people in the first row their money back, he's spreadin' (Bruce) his sweat around they didn't pay for that"

:lol

[tp2021]

I wonder what Pop said to S-Jax that made him laugh.

[Jobbs]

Tp

[ILoveOranges]

christ tony parker.

[Juanobili]

Tony!

[tp2021]

A full-court drive to the bucket in 3.6 seconds. Wow.

[ILoveOranges]

running the length of the court in under 4 seconds.

[ShoogarBear]

The Warriors suck a$$.

[jhuan16]

Parker!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

TP at the buzzer, super quick

Spurs up 35-21 after one

[Fundamental]

Parker went baseline to baseline in 3 seconds and beat the buzzer with a layup!

[WildcardManu]

This sucks, why did the OKLA MIZZOU game have to be on at same time as Spurs.

[DPG21920]

I am going to go ahead and say it: I love our team

[Juanobili]

even if it's against the Warriors, it's nice to see the good old Spurs I know back

[Frenchise player]

This has to be the most pathetic performance from a spurs opponent this season

[jhuan16]

35 point in first quater?
What's wrong with the spurs?

[HarlemHeat37]

regardless of how this game goes, I would love having Stephen Jackson back on this team..

[Fundamental]

I wonder what Pop said to S-Jax that made him laugh.

Pop: You're team is playing as well as the officiating was on that call...

[Spurs Brazil]

Oberto from Bonner, great pass

[Manufan909]

regardless of how this game goes, I would love having Stephen Jackson back on this team..

Hope Bowen shuts his ass down so I forget that.:king

[Anti.Hero]

Bonner is looking good with these feeds.

[tp2021]

Nothing is more beautiful than this cohesive team play.

[mystargtr34]

Oberto and Bonner combining for a good play, unbelievable.

[Reck]

Man this is not even fun. lol

Warriors do suck A$$

[mVp]

Mase !

[WildcardManu]

Money SHOT

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr 3333333333333333333

[mystargtr34]

Turiaf is averging something crazy like 2.5 blocks in 15 minutes per. I guess you get alot of opportunities with that perimeter D in front of you.

[Spurs Brazil]

Thomas J!!!

[mVp]

Tony for 3333

[Jobbs]

Tp3

[Spurs Brazil]

Tp 33333333333333333333333333

[Fundamental]

When they're hot they're hot. Looking good, I can't keep up with the praises.

[mVp]

This is a clinic :lol

[WildcardManu]

:sleep

[mystargtr34]

The Warriors lost 40% of their offensive fire power in Baron, but their defense has remained 100% shit

[jhuan16]

Man this is not even fun. lol

Warriors do suck A$$

That is why rocket scored 131 point last night.

[mystargtr34]

Tony could go for 50-15 tonight if he played 40 minutes

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuu

[Reck]

Wow 47 points with 8+ minutes to play in the half. Nice.

[mystargtr34]

Didnt Oberto put up 20-10 against GS a couple seasons back?

[Manufan909]

Didnt Oberto put up 20-10 against GS a couple seasons back?

You're thinking of Bonner, he put up 27 and 15 or something like that. Timmy better not play more than 27 minutes, that is all I have to fucking say, since apparently everyone is on fire.

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr 333333333333333333333333

[mVp]

Mason 3333

[Fundamental]

There's Mason for 3!

[tp2021]

Mason: Catch-and-shoot extraordinaire!

[Anti.Hero]

Don Nelson gets paid for this shit??????????????

[Fundamental]

Manu with the steal!!!

[Anti.Hero]

haha badass steal manu

[tp2021]

That was the most slithery steal I have ever seen, Manu!

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr J!

[tp2021]

Once again: Roger Mason, catch-and-shoot extraordinaire!

[Frenchise player]

I don't think it is a very good preparation for the game at dallas. Way too easy.

[Spurs Brazil]

Td J!!!

[tp2021]

There is absolutely no pressure on the Spurs right now.

[Spurs Brazil]

TD great J!!!

[mVp]

Timmy is everywhere!

[Anti.Hero]

Nice hustle Timmy.

[ILoveOranges]

pathetic.

[peskypesky]

Tim's shot looks great.

[Fundamental]

Highest scoring half of the season!!

[ILoveOranges]

horray for missing a layup. there's our cory maggette

[peskypesky]

two TO's in a row.

bench must be in. :(

[mVp]

65 points at the half... If you're in a shooting slump, GS is the team you want to play against lol

[ILoveOranges]

65-47
56.8fg% from the Spurs
33.3% from the Warriors

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 65-49 at the half

[Manufan909]

Ime would be the only negative on the team.

[peskypesky]

well let's hope the slaughter continues so the starters can sit out the 4th. them old bones need rest.

[mystargtr34]

Hill has 2 blocks.

[peskypesky]

Ime would be the only negative on the team.

yep. what the hell has happened to him? he seemed promising last season.

[Obstructed_View]

Anybody that wants to hear the OU game just needs to click on the Golden State feed on Audio League Pass. The basketball game is nowhere to be found.

[Manufan909]

So who did Hill get the blocks on?

[mystargtr34]

You're thinking of Bonner, he put up 27 and 15 or something like that. Timmy better not play more than 27 minutes, that is all I have to fucking say, since apparently everyone is on fire.

Nah the season before, Oberto had a 20-10 game and a 11-11 FG game, not sure who they were against of if they were the same game.

[mystargtr34]

So who did Hill get the blocks on?

Azubuke and Watson.

[Fundamental]

Anybody that wants to hear the OU game just needs to click on the Golden State feed on Audio League Pass. The basketball game is nowhere to be found.

OU 24 Mizz 7 with 4 minutes left in first half.

[Frenchise player]

Ime is a victim of the other players doing well. He is not contributing on offense and his defense isn't good enough to play instead of Finley or Bowen, he will have to take a seat for now but it doesn't mean it will last (see what Bonner has gone through in the beginning of the season)

[Manufan909]

Nah the season before, Oberto had a 20-10 game and a 11-11 FG game, not sure who they were against of if they were the same game.

Thanks, I might as well help you out too, Fab's great game was against Phoenix.

[mVp]

Nah the season before, Oberto had a 20-10 game and a 11-11 FG game, not sure who they were against of if they were the same game.

The 11-11 FG game was against the Suns I think.

[ShoogarBear]

Nah the season before, Oberto had a 20-10 game and a 11-11 FG game, not sure who they were against of if they were the same game.


The 11-11 game was against Phoenix.

Shocking, I know.

[Obstructed_View]

OU 24 Mizz 7 with 4 minutes left in first half.

Yeah I know. My point is that NBA Audio League Pass is doing a better job of broadcasting a college football game than the Spurs/Warriors game. Funny how often this season the Spurs game is the only one that doesn't work, and you don't get either feed. I checked every other game going on and the feeds work fine.

[Frenchise player]

The Cavaliers have blown out the Bobcats, New Orleans seems on its way against Memphis and the Spurs are kicking the Warriors ass.
The hierarchy is well established in the NBA.

[mystargtr34]

Thanks

Phoenix, had to be either them or GS.

[Fundamental]

You should get your money back. I think NBA league pass advertises 'every game' and if that's not true then you could probably get your money back...or at the least possibly an explanation why the Spurs aren't included.

[mystargtr34]

Yea the West has been a little disappointing this year, theres the top 9, then everything else is just awful.

[timtonymanu]

Ime would be the only negative on the team.

Ime's the new Bonner. Ever since Udoka was given the opportunity to start, he's been sucking ever since. :depressed

[Manufan909]

Ime is the old Bonner plus JV combined to equal a basketball player who is good at nothing. Come on Ime, we know your better than that!!!

[Osnofa]

Oberto with 11-11? :\

Can you put the nba boxscore link here please?

[Fundamental]

Ime has shown to be a very aggressive one-on-one defender. That can be a good and a bad thing, but he has shown this season and last that he will not let a one-v-one offender pass him on the way to the basket.

[Jobbs]

lol @ Finley

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner J

[Fundamental]

Bonner with the opening 3

[Fundamental]

we love u fin fin

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley from TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mVp]

lol I feel bad for the Warriors... let's play Vaughn for the rest of the game :lol

[ILoveOranges]

Quarterbacked.

[Fundamental]

lol I feel bad for the Warriors... let's play Vaughn for the rest of the game :lol

Vaughn would love an opportunity to get out there and show pop he can be part of the effort.

[ILoveOranges]

Duncan could be the current Lions starting quarterback

[mystargtr34]

lol I feel bad for the Warriors... let's play Vaughn for the rest of the game :lol

I dont think a 25 point lead is safe with JV until 5 minutes left in the 4th

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley J!!

[tp2021]

Ime is the old Bonner plus JV combined to equal a basketball player who is good at nothing. Come on Ime, we know your better than that!!!

Ime is still way better than JV.

[Obstructed_View]

You should get your money back. I think NBA league pass advertises 'every game' and if that's not true then you could probably get your money back...or at the least possibly an explanation why the Spurs aren't included.

Fortunately they don't charge for it anymore. Since I've been able to listen to like two games so far this year I'd be flipping out on them if I'd paid anything for it.

[mystargtr34]

Maggette is stinking the joint up.

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley 33333333333333333

[tomtom]

findog!!

[ShoogarBear]

Oberto with 11-11? :\

Can you put the nba boxscore link here please?

http://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/200611080SAS.html

[Fundamental]

Finley is HOT HOT HOT!

[tp2021]

This is the Finley and Bonner the Spurs wanted when they signed them.

[timtonymanu]

Finley 3!

[ILoveOranges]

Seriously. Lion's quarterback.

[tomtom]

amazing pass!

[Spurs Brazil]

TD great pass to Oberto

[mystargtr34]

Duncan gets his double-double in 14 minutes.

[tomtom]

[Jobbs]

[Fundamental]

OMG TD and Oberto just took a scalpel to the GS defense.


and finley for another 3!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley 333333333333333333333

[ILoveOranges]

[ShoogarBear]

Just keep repeating . . . "it's only the Warriors, it's only the Warriors . . ."

[timtonymanu]

Finley is fuckin awesome.

[Sigz]

This game is fun.

[Spurs Brazil]

[ILoveOranges]

[Fundamental]

SeanElliot just called Golden State the Washington Generals...haha

[peskypesky]

[mVp]

Even Ime scores lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Ime 3333333333333

[Fundamental]

Ime!!! his ears were burning...

[Warlord23]

This is sheer murder

[timtonymanu]

lol. all we need is jacque to make a ferocious dunk.

[ILoveOranges]

Pathetic

[ShoogarBear]

Don't post game links.

[tp2021]

This isn't a game. It's a bukkake.

[mystargtr34]

Holy shit, lets win this thing by 50.

[peskypesky]

am i confused? i seem to remember SJax being on GS.

[ShoogarBear]

You guys might want to edit these posts.
Makes it kinda hard, since you quoted them.

[tp2021]

am i confused? i seem to remember SJax being on GS.

He injured his hand, so he is sitting out the rest of the game I think.

[mystargtr34]

George Hill hasnt score yet.

[timtonymanu]

Ime J!
