Game Blog: Spurs vs. Suns - Jan. 29

[WildcardManu]

foul on the snaq machine

[Biggems]

Amare looked like he traveled on that last possession...not certain though

[peskypesky]

where's KT?

[pawe]

Bonner's D was non existent on that replay

[mystargtr34]

Tim shriveling up shooting jumpers against Shaq again.

Take it to the rack.

[TampaDude]

Why do I smell OT???

[Spurologist]

Damn. if Bonner stood his ground on the last play, he would have drawn the charge.

[Ice009]

Bring Kurt back out there. We were playing better with KT out there.

Alright Tim. Let's go Tim.

[peskypesky]

how many steps does amare get anyway?

[it's me]

Bonner can't defend my grandma...

[024]

damn stoudemire just completely shooting over bonner that time. imagine bynum or gasol shooting over bonner's t-rex arms.

[urunobili]

big free throws coming for TD...

[Yorae]

Bleeding, he went off to get tampons.

[JohnnySixString]

Well.....fuck.

[peskypesky]

Spurs need to hire Charles Oakley to teach them how to foul.

[Spurologist]

fuckin pop. For his sake i hope Bonner makes a 3 to warrant crunch time minutes.

[HarlemHeat37]

Duncan's individual D has been way below his standards this year..he's not fighting for position at all, he's letting the offensive player back him down easier than any time I've seen in the past..he usually steps his D up at this time of the season, so hopefully it gets better..

I have no problems at all with his team D, it's been great lately, but his individual D needs to step up..

it's impossible to stop Shaq once he gets position, but at least Kurt wasn't letting him get to his spots..

[TampaDude]

TD better hit at least one of these FTs!!!

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Amare looked like he traveled on that last possession...not certain though

who gives a shit, you guys are gonna win anyway with that moron on the court.

[Capt Bringdown]

Spurs seem to lack the will to close out games with authority this year.

[Bob Lanier]

I got $423 from CashForGold.com. Now that's a lot of cash money!!

[TDfan2007]

Tim shriveling up shooting jumpers against Shaq again.

Take it to the rack.

bad idea. Shaq's too big. Tim just has to play smart. Mix it up on Shaq. And NEVER take a forced 7 foot floater off the glass when you have Nash on you.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Bonner can't defend my grandma...

To his defense... your grandma has a killer step back J

[Biggems]

Duncan is such a choke fest in the 4th tonight

[HarlemHeat37]

biggest chokejob from Duncan I've seen this season..

[peskypesky]

Duncan chokes on ft 1

[Spurologist]

nice adjustment by pop on the timeout to have manu cheat on the pick and roll to guard amare up top

[Bob Lanier]

That's a good defensive scheme there.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

I hate how fuckin pussy Amare yells AND1!!!! every time he shoots, and it's never close to a foul.


it's the battle cry of the retard.

[HarlemHeat37]

it's getting really annoying that we aren't closing teams out..when we're up 11 points, we should be extending the lead, not losing it..just like the Utah game..it's hopeless though, because it's been like this for years now..

[Biggems]

id hate to be Shaq or Duncan playing russian roullette with FTs

[DROB4EVER]

I have never seen D this bad

[TDfan2007]

Hill bailed Tim out there.

[TampaDude]

If the Spurs cannot extend their lead...they are in trouble...

[lurker]

Dammit, Grant. I'm gonna punch you in the face.

[pawe]

what are they booing at, that was clearly a foul.

[HarlemHeat37]

wow, open layup..Duncan should be there, there's no reason to be with Shaq that far from the basket..this isn't Duncan-like..

[Jloyola]

Refs are favoring the Spurs.... clean block by Hill

[DROB4EVER]

I got $423 from CashForGold.com. Now that's a lot of cash money!!

For 7lbs of gold!

[Spurologist]

spurs 107-101

[WildcardManu]

I'm doing my best rain man impersonation rocking and forth saying "gotta keep the lead, gotta keep the lead".

[Trainwreck2100]

wtf was that shit

[Libri]

TD 2 free throws.

[Spurologist]

1:30 spurs ball

[024]

duncan nailing some clutch FTs.

[WildcardManu]

wind the clock down

[peskypesky]

We gotta give Tim props, people. 19pts, 14 boards

[Reck]

Wtf...no Foul Called?

[Spurologist]

:pctoss

[DROB4EVER]

Manure fucks up again!

[Trainwreck2100]

fucking kevin harlan you jinxing piece of crap

[HarlemHeat37]

Manu being Manu..give him the basket, he's too far inside..

[pawe]

nice move Manu. yes, piss away the lead

[Ice009]

Boneheaded Play By Tony And Man. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

[TDfan2007]

stupid crunch time foul by Manu.

[Yorae]

Damn....

[itzsoweezee]

what the fuck are you doing tony parker? fucking dumb ballhog move. asshole.

[TampaDude]

Grant Hill just won the game...or maybe not...TP redeems himself...

[peskypesky]

Manu Manu Manu....another stupid useless foul? Really?

[MannyIsGod]

I swear Manu pisses me off so much at times. So much.

[Spurologist]

tppppppppppppppppp

222222222222222222222222222

[WildcardManu]

muahahahaha

[Libri]

Big shot by TP!!

[024]

parker!!!

[peskypesky]

Huge Fucking Clutch Jumper By Tp!!!!!!!!!

[HarlemHeat37]

Tony Parker..the Sun killer..

[lurker]

Parker showing why he's an All-Star. Can't hate.

[DROB4EVER]

Stupid shot.......man good thing he nailed it!

[Spurologist]

redemption by tp

FUCKIN CLUTCH

[spursfan09]

Thats why he's an all star

[Biggems]

great play by Hill......stupid foul by Manu

[pawe]

DAMN...big shot by TP! he bailed Manu's ass on that shot

[Spurtacus]

God, don't screw up....

[Yorae]

Tp!!!!

[milkyway21]

irregardless of the outcome of this game, playing with the Suns esp now that they have ShaQ is always been a pleasure to watch

[dougp]

Grant Hill just won the game.

Wow, can you change your team please? You're fucking pathetic if you think the game is over on that.

[DROB4EVER]

Manu being Manu..give him the basket, he's too far inside..

Fuck no you foul the shit out of him!

[TDfan2007]

Tony should've fed Tim for the layup, but damn did he make up for it with that J. Beautiful shooting mechanics too. Thanks Chip!

[MannyIsGod]

Boneheaded Play By Tony And Man. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.


what the fuck are you doing tony parker? fucking dumb ballhog move. asshole.


Grant Hill just won the game.

As much as Manu pisses me off - some of you must be drooling on your bibs as you type because I swear you have Downs.

[Pauleta14]

I love u "BIG BALLS" Tony!!!!!!!

[peskypesky]

Well, he pisses me off, but there is no quit in Manu....that last dish to Tony was sweet

[Yorae]

That was a manu assist

[TDfan2007]

Tony's clutchness continues

[Borosai]

Manu is getting good at those dumb fouls.

Mason 3 coming up.

[Reck]

History will come through for the Spurs.

Suns are doomed to fail against us and is showing..

[Typhoon]

Shit happens, stop bitching so much you fucking pussies.

[Biggems]

Refs are favoring the Spurs.... clean block by Hill

no they arent.......the officiating is pretty good tonight. The Suns bitch too much and you dont do that with Javie. Even Timmy got a T. As far as the FTs go, the Suns intentionally fouled and gave the Spurs 6 extra FTs.

[Spurminator]

How do you say "watermelons" in French?

[TampaDude]

Fuck no you foul the shit out of him!

+1 But if you're gonna foul...foul hard...don't give him a 3-point play... :bang

[2centsworth]

Tony is a Gorilla. Manu has played great, but is still dumb.

[peskypesky]

that was perfect the way Tony stepped into his shot and squared up....Chip must be smiling

[Typhoon]

btw nice play by Manu and Tony to make up for the mistake.

[bbarry]

irregardless of the outcome of this game, playing with the Suns esp now that they have ShaQ is always been a pleasure to watch

the word is either, 'regardless' or 'irregarding' in this situation but never irregardless.

just fyi. :)

[pawe]

no 3s now. Lets go Spurs!
Nash tripped!

[Bob Lanier]

:lol :rollin

Fucking idiot.

[lurker]

Oh, Nash...you spend far too much time lying on the floor.

[Spurologist]

TO

spurs ball.

Hack a bowen again. brain cramp by suns

1 ft and ball

:lol

[TDfan2007]

lol Suns are the BIGGEST chokers. THis is hilarious.

[Jloyola]

no foul on bowen for pushing nash??

[Texas_Ranger]

Fucking morons:rollin

[TampaDude]

Ballgame!!!

[Spurminator]

That's some good coachin', Terry.

[Reck]

History will come through for the Spurs.

Suns are doomed to fail against us and is showing..


Let me just quote myself on this.

[HarlemHeat37]

LOL 2 free throws and the ball..

be proud guys..not about this game, but about the fact that the Spurs have killed the Phoenix Suns franchise..we've absolutely killed them..

[DROB4EVER]

Nash.....????

[SuperManu!!!]

Nash flops

[024]

hahahaha suns don't know how to hack. suns are funny.

[Biggems]

Porter is a complete idiot.....he makes DAntoni seem like a Rhodes scholar

[Yorae]

I think we got this.

[der Kaiser]

Laugh my ass off! The Suns are Pathetic. AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Borosai]

The Suns need to practice their Hack-a-Anybody.

[peskypesky]

what the hell happened there?

[WildcardManu]

just give up phoenix, hand over the deed of your team to S.A.

[ShoogarBear]

You can tell Doug Collins is really crushed by this loss.

[2centsworth]

If Terry Porter told Nash to foul, Terry should be fired

[Capt Bringdown]

Nice win, but it's just the Suns.

[Bob Lanier]

You'd think a team with Shaquille O'Neal would be fully versed in the time limits for off-ball fouls.

[Yorae]

16/16 ft for manu.

[HarlemHeat37]

Fuck no you foul the shit out of him!

not in today's soft NBA, it would be a flagrant, especially if a guy with a bad history of injuries like Hill is involved..

[peskypesky]

Porter is a complete idiot.....he makes DAntoni seem like a Rhodes scholar

i wouldn't go that far. he'd make a good assistant coach.

[Spurologist]

You can tell Doug Collins is really crushed by this loss.

:lmao

with complete melancholy: "You can tell this was really big for the suns. That's too bad"

[Jloyola]

Nice win, but it's just the Suns.

Thats what Laker fans say when they beat the spurs!

[milkyway21]

SA: T. Parker, 28-Pts
T. Duncan, 13-Rbs
T. Parker, 5-Ast

PHO: A. Stoudemire, 28-Pts
A. Stoudemire, 10-Rbs

[tomtom]

great win, spurs remain clutch :toast

[pawe]

nice manu!

[peskypesky]

Very good win for the Spurs!!

Beating the Suns on their home court on national tv!

[Yorae]

Manu just sealed the game.

[rasho8]

TRADE MANU!!

Im so sick of MANU!! He always costs us games. I HATE MANU!! I HATE EVERYONE TALLER THAN 5 FEET!!

Manu sucks.

-SequSpur

[Bob Lanier]

throw It Down, Big Man! Throw It Down!

[Trainwreck2100]

not in today's soft NBA, it would be a flagrant, especially if a guy with a bad history of injuries like Hill is involved..

If you can somehow collapse a lung you won't be suspended so if you want to flagrant make sure you damage a major organ as well.

[peskypesky]

I'm going to celebrate with another rum 'n coke, my friends.

[pawe]

Spurs Win!!! 2

[bbarry]

manu 18/18 FTs ? wow.

[Reck]

Wow Its sad how the Spurs own the Suns..

There should be a limit as to how much you can owned a team so hard. lol

[Admidave50]

Nice win on the Suns floor!!

[timtonymanu]

Tim should buy Manu, Kurt, Bruce, and Tony dinner because they bailed him out tonight.

[TampaDude]

Fucking SWEEEEET!!!!! GO SPURS GO!!!!!

[ClingingMars]

dammit Lefty I shoulda been 4-0 :(

-Mars

[Bob Lanier]

Spurs 44 free throws
Suns 25 free throws

[Yorae]

Nice win....damn i'm hungry...gotta eat.

[peskypesky]

How much do the Suns hate the Spurs???

[Quiet Strength]

lol that hack a bowen really hurt the suns. Thomas and manu were huge this game. Good game!!

[Spurologist]

Spurs shoot 86% at the stripe tonight. nice

:tu

[024]

good spurs win. defense finally kicked in the fourth, and combined with suns' choking in the 4th results in a good closeout.

[Yorae]

Spurs 44 free throws
Suns 25 free throws

That's what happens when spurs is aggressive.

[peskypesky]

Tim should buy Manu, Kurt, Bruce, and Tony dinner because they bailed him out tonight.

oh fuck off. look at tim's stats, asswipe.

[TampaDude]

manu 18/18 FTs ? wow.

+1 Damn right...Manu = $$$ down the stretch to seal the deal! :hat

[Reck]

dammit Lefty I shoulda been 4-0 :(

-Mars

You're acting like you get a big reward for having how many wins. lol

[td4mvp21]

Hmmmm we attack the paint and we get to the line! Granted Phoenix spotted us about 20 free throws with intentional fouls and technicals...

[Spurtacus]

Woot. Another win!

[Jloyola]

if the Suns had 44 fts, and the Spurs had 25fts.... Spurs were claiming the refs and david stern is against them...

[Quiet Strength]

That's what happens when spurs is aggressive.

Yeah that 3rd quarter was the most aggressive the spurs have played all season.

[lurker]

Suns shot a better percentage and still lost. That's what happens when you give the other team 44 free throw attempts, dumbasses.

[Avitus1]

Good Win!

[ManuTP9]

Spurs yeah!

[Ice009]

Great win Spurs!

[m33p0]

doug collins didn't sound happy. :lol

[spursfan09]

Damn that was a rowdy ass block by Grant Hill.

[TampaDude]

Oh, BTW...

[ClingingMars]

You're acting like you get a big reward for having how many wins. lol

prideeee

:flag:

[peskypesky]

Bowen +13

and haters say he's finished!

[Pelicans78]

Nice wins. You guys continue to be a machine. Putting pressure on us to keep winning.

[Ditty]

if the Suns had 44 fts, and the Spurs had 25fts.... Spurs were claiming the refs and david stern is against them...

its called agrerssive something the lakers didnt have against boston

[it's me]

Trade Manu for Grant Hill....

[raspsa]

The Spurs did tighten the defense in the 2nd half of the 4th and somehow they seemed to want the W more than the Suns. The Suns seemed a bit hesitant and unsure of themselves while the Spurs seemed confident in what they wanted to do. Crushing blow to the Suns.. i think their egos are a bit fragile nowadays and this didn't help.. something's gonna snap soon IMO.

[RobSM64]

stoudemire looked like he wanted to cry there....

[Borosai]

Wait, why does Gay Payton still have a seat at TNT?

[Spurologist]

It would have been fun to hear Sir. Charles' comments about the game

[Trainwreck2100]

Wait, why does Gay Payton still have a seat at TNT?

Cause Chuck don't know when to say when

[Spurologist]

Trade Manu for Grant Hill....

It's posts like this that make Kori consider instituting an IQ test to become a poster

[Budkin]

Damn another awesome win and what a game from Manu!

[Creation88]

awesome win!

[Pelicans78]

Amare's quickly becoming irrelevant. He had all the potential in the world, but he just cares about scoring, shooting jumpers. Doesn't care about controlling the paint. What a bum.

[milkyway21]

nice win :toast:


Dallas
Phoenix &
Utah will battle it out for the WC last spot in the next 2 mos

[SpursPreacher]

Manu is there as always.

[peskypesky]

It would have been fun to hear Sir. Charles' comments about the game

I can hear him in my head right now. "Turrible. Turrible."

[pawe]

:lol at webber with the french accent

[pawe]

shut the fuck up GP!

[RobSM64]

Gary Payton the coat tail champ spewing shit once again...

[TampaDude]

It would have been fun to hear Sir. Charles' comments about the game

"Ginobili!!!" :lol

[Spurologist]

shut the fuck up GP!

I think someone needs to tell Gary Payton Mason is a starter.

[SpursFan0728]

Great Game

[raspsa]

The Spurs buckled down to work and started pulling away when TD went to the bench to rest.. can't say enough about Kurt Thomas and his blue collar play and toughness holding the fort vs Suns bigs. Not a good game for Bonner though. Did Oberto even play?

[milkyway21]

:lol @ Pop confusing Porter with his change of line-up & subs every now & then :tu

[pawe]

Payton has a hard on for being the "controversial" guy on TNT. I hope Charles comes back soon so GP can GTFO quick fast and in a hurry.

[ShoogarBear]

haw-haw, Kenny's retirement jersey video.

[mando6599]

Even though Bonner didn't score(should have scored that gimmer layup though), I actually noticed good defense on Amare tonight. Only 1 dunk allowed for him. I'll let Airhead Amare take those 20 ft. jumpers every night. PHX has never beaten us when it matters and when he scores a bunch of jumpers. Great let 'em fly! Just no gimmes and that's what Bonner did well 2nite, imo.

mando


EDIT: My bad, Bonner did score 3 pts. Must not have noticed though.

[Spurologist]

:lol

Kenny's jersey in the rafters

Awesome!!!!

[xellos88330]

I love the Suns. I was still fuming about the LA loss the other day, but watching the Spurs beat the Suns always makes my bad feelings go away.

I loved the Hack-a-Bowen strategy. That I honestly think killed the Suns psyche for the rest of the game. They were thinking "Have a taste of your own medicine San Antonio!!! *snicker snicker*" Followed by long resonating "FUUUUCCK!!!!" 6 FTs later

[pawe]

That was exactly what my friend told me when he called me during the hack a bowen stage...including the FUUUUCK! Amazing.

[Manufan909]

Shit happens, stop bitching so much you fucking pussies.

Thank you. Fuck, I get off ST and just watch the game for the 2nd half and the - to + ratio for Manu posts was just embarassing. So what he missed 4 3s, he hit 18 motherfucking FTs you assholes. Why does everyone have to bitch, and half the board gave up on the Spurs because they thought they wouldn't be able to score as much in the 2nd half, but they did anyways.

Why can't anyone motherfucking believe.:flag::flag::flag:

And I thought the Hack-A-Bowen was hilarious, go Bowen!!! Drawing fouls, hitting FTs throwing in a 3, nice. And Thomas was the shit, wish he could play D like that on Bynum or Gasol.

[zerokibum]

he is always come back, he is manu ginobili~~~~~

[Xylus]

Porter is a fucking idiot.

Hack-a-Bowen... dumbass.

[MANUUU]

you think anyone here can get the tony parker clip of shaking barbosa? i want a short clip that just replays that all day! anyone? please?

[angelbelow]

lol did nash fuck up with the hack a bowen at the end or did his coach actually signal him to do it?

[Manufan909]

lol did nash fuck up with the hack a bowen at the end or did his coach actually signal him to do it?

Someone said he might've banged his head, cuz Porter got pissed after he did that.

And Manuuuuuu, there is a thread dedicated to it.

And to Xylus, you and Duncanownskobe are class acts.:toast To bad SporkKiller ruined the rep of Suns fans everywhere.:bang

[EricB]

Gary Payton the coat tail champ spewing shit once again...

Payton contributed quite well in 2006.

[MANUUU]

where's the thread. oh and anyone have a small or medium ginobili swingman? i have an XL one and its too big lol

[MANUUU]

nevermind, found the thread. thanks guys.
