I can see us losing this game

[RobinsontoDuncan]

I know it is at home but Memphis already beat us once using the formula of keeping the scorers out of the paint and now we are very short on bigs in the rotation with Horry not playing and Nazr not playing, that just leaves Massenburg and....gulp Marks.

[Frenchise player]

Horry is playing and Marks is on IR

[Blazer16]

Is Marks on IR? Regardless, right now we can't score.

[mattyc]

We could use some energy off the bench.





....


Shit. :depressed

[T Park]

they need to wake up and kick there asses in gear.

This lackluster defensive effort is pathetic.


Wake up Spurs, hes gone, move the fuck on.

[boutons]

Spurs better hope the Griz run out of gas, I think that's the only way Spurs can win. Spurs just getting out-hustled @SBC by a team on the backside of a B2B.

[exstatic]

Too many turnovers. Period.

[Manu20]

13 TO at the half=season average
Grizz shooting 51%
Thats why the spurs are losing.

[boutons]

Spurs -3 in T0s and -8 in paint points.
Spurs 1-7 3Gs

Not a bad game from Spurs, but a better game from Griz.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Manu is playing like garbage right now... hopefully he picks it up

[Blazer16]

Ginobili's 2 1Q fouls limited his minutes then
Only person making shots is Duncan (7-10)

[ALVAREZ6]

Spurs suck.

[boutons]

Spurs lucky the Griz went stone cold in the 3rd.

[picnroll]

Manu always plays bad against Memphis. Always.

[ALVAREZ6]

Manu always plays bad against Memphis. Always.
Umm not last year in the play-offs.

[boutons]

Spurs +1, but have missed 5 FTs. I bet the game is won/lost in under 5 pts.

[picnroll]

Yes last year in the playoffs. It was Parker that was unconcious in the playoffs. Manu gets stripped on drives against Memphis and throws bad passes because Mamphis plays the passing lanes.

[Walton Buys Off Me]

Some more great officiating tonight.......

Why does the NBA continue to convert mall santas into officials?

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Big shot manu

[boutons]

Grizz 36%, and only -2 pts. considering it's a back to back for them, flying east to west after last night's game, they hustling incredibly well.

[Blazer16]

Are all 3 of Duncan's fouls offensive?

[T Park]

was Memphis at home last night?? Elliott was talking about the thin air, so I assumed they were in Denver.

[boutons]

Pop's gonna fucking 4-down this game into a loss.

[atlfan25]

or maybe a win.

[T Park]

yeah pop always loses games whent he team has turned the ball over 20 times.

Fuckin pop.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

lorenzen wright is kicking our ass

[texbumTHElife]

Absolutely no intensity on either end of the floor...

[boutons]

nice step-up by Tim to hit 2 FTs in crunch time. but we're losing because of the 6 FTs he has missed. same ol' same ol'

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Someone tell the refs to quit callin shit memphis is gettin away with

[boutons]

Any nominal defense, and the Spurs offense struggles. dayum

Spurs 15 pts in 11 minutes of 4th qtr.

[Walton Buys Off Me]

The refs have been horrible as usual but the 747 turnovers didn't help.

Spurs got outhustled and outmuscled

[texbumTHElife]

Watson > Parker tonight.

Rasho = Bench once Muhammed is ready.

So much for one home loss this season. We gave this one away.

[texbumTHElife]

Any nominal defense, and the Spurs offense struggles. dayum

Spurs 15 pts in 11 minutes of 4th qtr.

In these cases I really wish Pop would release the reins and let Parker run the fast break. Its the only sustained offense we get vs. teams with any D.

[boutons]

How many layups, point-blank, and putbacks have the Spurs missed tonight?

Huge fall-away jumper by Watson to go up by 4. fuck fuck fuck

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Refs do it again

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Ginnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnobili!!!

[texbumTHElife]

How many layups, point-blank, and putbacks have the Spurs missed tonight?

Damn good point. Tony has just gotten totally undressed tonight. While that may be good for Ava I expect him to hold up better on D and get more done on O going up against someone like Watson.

[RobinsontoDuncan]

My question is, Why did we have so many god damn turnovers. Manu has to be the worst out of all of them, he had 6 all by himself, the idiot. If we had kept the ball we would have won this game, but Manu screwed the pooch.

[texbumTHElife]

Refs do it again

Gotta love those phantom fouls. Its been a while since I have complained about refs but this game sure makes me want to go on a tirade!

[xcoriate]

My question is, Why did we have so many god damn turnovers. Manu has to be the worst out of all of them, he had 6 all by himself, the idiot. If we had kept the ball we would have won this game, but Manu screwed the pooch.

Its a subtle tribute to Malik

[mattyc]

Spurs got outhustled and outmuscled
Where's that Malik guy when ya need him...

[texbumTHElife]

Thats Manu though. You have to take the good with the bad because he is always trying to create. If Tim made 80% of his FT's, if our offense showed up in the 4th, if Rasho wasnt worthless, if not for the ridiculous phantom fouls we would have won this game. Too many ifs. Great teams dont leave the game up to ifs ands or buts. THis team looks in a league of their own at times but then other times looks middle of the pack. I guess we just have to see which team shows up night in and night out in the playoffs.

[texbumTHElife]

What a total fucking let down. This game made me sick to my stomach literally.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Man, i dont know what kinda play call that was, ginobili got you into the game at the end, let him take the last shot

[T Park]

if Rasho wasnt worthless


him and pop were horrible.


Directly responsible for the 22 turnovers.



amazing......


Wheres the critisism of Ginobili. 7 turnovers!??!!?!? COME ON!

good god.

[TDfan2007]

SHOULDA GOTTEN THE BALL TO TIM!!!

:pctoss :pctoss :pctoss :pctoss

HORRIBLE GAME!!!!! THE WORST I'VE SEEN THE SPURS ALL YEAR!!!!

:pctoss :pctoss :pctoss :pctoss :pctoss :cuss :cuss :cuss

THAT'S SAYING SOMETHING TOO!!!!!

[Manu20]

24 TO DAMN!
I did not watch the game but was that good defense by Grizz or sloppy play by the Spurs?

[boutons]

Huge HUGE gutsy W for Mem, to fly into SBC after the Nugs stole the game last night, and then still out hustle the Spurs from end to end.

Spurs looked bad, but Griz caused the Spurs to look bad.

[texbumTHElife]

him and pop were horrible.


Directly responsible for the 22 turnovers.



amazing......


Wheres the critisism of Ginobili. 7 turnovers!??!!?!? COME ON!

good god.

I made that statement immidiately following his complete meltdown on the defensive end which led to Memphis going back up by 2. I wasnt aware that my criticisms had to meet your criteria.

How many games has Rasho won for us?

Nuff said. Gino, TP and TD get more slack because they make big plays when the game is on the line. Usually while Rasho's worthless ass is on the bench.

[T Park]

24 pardon me.


Of course thats Rasho and Pop's fault.

Brent Barry maybe? Nah he didnt need to be there.


pathetic effort tonight from top to bottom.

[texbumTHElife]

24 TO DAMN!
I did not watch the game but was that good defense by Grizz or sloppy play by the Spurs?

I would say a combination of both. To me the Spurs looked like they had just played like 5 games back to back. They had absolutely no intensity or sense of urgency although they got outplayed, out worked, and out hustled all game long.

[boutons]

Tim misses 6 FTs, Spurs miss 7 total, lose by 2 pts. FTs lost this game.

[ShoogarBear]

Disagree. Spurs shot 77% from the line. You can't complain about that.

23-13 turnover deficit is where you point the blame.

[texbumTHElife]

Tim misses 6 FTs, Spurs miss 7 total, lose by 2 pts. FTs lost this game.

How many games have we won with those exact numbers though. This game was all about our TO's. Although to have more turnovers than assists as well as 10 more turnovers than the other team and still almost squeak it out is almost redeamable.

Sloppy play on offense and defense. Too many easy baskets given up and too many missed baskets on offense were strong contributing factors as well.

[T Park]

How many games has Rasho won for us?

Didn't realize it was Rasho's job to win games.


Get a life.

[Manu20]

Rasho's job is to play defense and block shots. And he does a good job of that.

[boutons]

"Sloppy play on offense and defense."

Too general. Grizz hustled on both ends damn well. Spurs excessive T0s were not unforced.

Spurs offense just ain't that tough when it faces a decent defense.

Spurs got slaughtered in the paint @MIA and lose.

They get beat again in the paint, and lose vs Griz.

Spurs interior defense weak, Spurs interior offense weak. Pistons must be loving it.

[TDfan2007]

Tim misses 6 FTs, Spurs miss 7 total, lose by 2 pts. FTs lost this game.

Are you serious?

Stupid turnovers *caugh* Manu *caugh* and Shitty defense lost this game. That along with no effort from the bench and stupid plays from Bowen.

Oh yeah, and the fact that Tony was too busy bricking 3's in the 4th didn't help either.

[ALVAREZ6]

Stupid turnovers *caugh* Manu *caugh* and Shitty defense lost this game.


I love how you point out Manu's 7 turnover when Parker had 4 and Duncan had 5.

[RobinsontoDuncan]

I love how you're such a Manu homer that you forgot your boy lost us the game.

[TDfan2007]

I love how you point out Manu's 7 turnover when Parker had 4 and Duncan had 5.

I didn't get on them cuz they were the only two that actually played well last night. Tim was getting triple-teamed on a constant basis. But Manu threw bad passes and fumbled the ball a lot. Plus, his turnover at the end of the game screwed us over.

This is nothing against Manu, all I'm sayin' is that he's had better nights.
