Spurs vs. Nets March 8th -- Game Blog

[timvp]

Vince Carter versus Bruce Bowen should be a good battle. With seemingly every Spur taller than 6-foot-8 questionable coming into the game, this could get interesting.

Discuss.

[stéphane]

Bruce/Vince matchup will be hot with what happened last time...
a key in such a game for sure...

[Manu20]

Rasho and Tim will play! :elephant

[mookie2001]

my friend thispego said cnn said "blog" was the most used word of 2004
i confidently replied that couldn't be, i assured him that "the" or "and" or any word i'm saying right now were more widely used and that cnn must have meant it was the most used "new" word of 2004, he stuck by saying it was the most used by reporters at cnn, i responded with what about "president" or "iraq" "bush" "kerry" "election" or "economy", he stuck by source foolishly. I ended the argurement and told him he "was blog and he didn't know blog blog stuff blog" and told him to blog himself"

[ShoogarBear]

Sean is out of control. I can't believe he just did that with the telestrator.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Jason Kidd sucks. Screw you Marcus.

[ShoogarBear]

Devin with the sweet and-1 from Barry.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I hope the Nets brought pen and paper, class is in session.

[Que Gee]

Barry makes the offense so much better. Nice one to massenberg too.

[Duncanoypi]

whats the score?...Yahoo is on a mess...

[mookie2001]

remember in the 03 finals when scalabrini gave robinson a "good job hug" after playing 1 min the entire series

[ShoogarBear]

16-10 with 2:05 left in the first.

Ah, I see we have a Bennett Salvatore Special tonight.

[Frenchise player]

whats the score?...Yahoo is on a mess...
espn too, why NBA.com is the only one that seems to work well?

[ShoogarBear]

Devin is out of control tonight, too. 'Bout time.

[ShoogarBear]

19-10 after a Devin 3, 1:15 left.

[stéphane]

Parker 4rbds in the 1st Q wtf :p

[mookie2001]

i'm no math wizard but 2 blks in 1 qtr is above tims avg

[ShoogarBear]

Lot of in/outs tonight.

Tony with a layup, 21-12, then an steal and incredible layup-and-1 at the buzzer.

[mookie2001]

nets are off the heeze in belize, on their way to a 48 pt game

[stéphane]

Carter 0/5 from the field keep going mang ;)

[adrien]

pas de probleme you are welcome :smokin

[ShoogarBear]

Brian Scalabrine's head is way too small for his body. He looks like that shrunken-head guy in Beetlejuice.

Devin with a putback, 26-12.

[mookie2001]

would you rather your name be nenad or hidayet or udonnis

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs looking super-aggressive. Maybe Tim will get his rest tonight anyway.

[ShoogarBear]

Brent with almost a spectacular rebound off his own missed three, but went out of bounds.

[mookie2001]

man Devin is a Texas boy, he looks good, he feels good, he stays right between SBC and Hillwood

[ShoogarBear]

Talk about small-ball. The current lineup is Horry, Devin, Beno, Manu, and Barry.

Kidd with a layup, 26-16 with 7:44 left.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu works over Kidd in the post. Nice.

[milkyway21]

espn too, why NBA.com is the only one that seems to work well?...try this link, this is working:

Kidd=0?

... :lol and Duncan is playing?

[mookie2001]

nets very deep at PG
jaque vaugh AND travis best

[mookie2001]

nets very deep at PG
jaque vaughn AND travis best

[Jimcs50]

Ok, Beno got killed there....no FTs??

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Vince Carter, you just got owned.

(psst, Tim Duncan is tall)

[td4mvp21]

Duncan just rejected Carter!!!!!!!!!!! He deserved that so much

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Beno is working over JKidd on defense. Damn, we could have had Kidd for over 100 million too!

[milkyway21]

hmmn, TD is really playing big minutes. :rolleyes

He's right, he's a good actor.

tonight, Vince Carter will get his halftime season-low record 2-4 pts. :lol

[stéphane]

Devin is hot tonight ^^

[Frenchise player]

This looks like a blowout, good thing before tomorrow game against Phoenix

[Jimcs50]

Devin is hot tonight ^^


Yes go into my Tpark thread and tell him that. :)

[stéphane]

How many point will VC score?
Looks like i'm gonna loose some vbookie again lol

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Duncan and Manu need to be playign less minutes, we need them rested for tomorrow.

[mookie2001]

anybody remember that BEST electronics that used to be on san pedro between that subway and that lincoln dealer, its something else now, bought my first cd player there for like $300

[Jimcs50]

Brown and TD have more pts than the whole Nets team

[milkyway21]

Duncan and Manu need to be playign less minutes, we need them rested for tomorrow.yeah!

maybe in the 2nd half?

[mookie2001]

amare needs to rest he'll be putting on a push-up exhibition at the game

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

We're playing this half like we want to give our starters the rest of the game off.

[Manu20]

Props to Brown for playing a great first half. 15 points 6 rebounds.

[stéphane]

47-28 at HT... looks like NBA champs are getting owned :)

[milkyway21]

BRENT BARRY, IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO GIVE US SOME BIG GAME, MAN Grrrrrr... :cuss

[boutons]

Spurs need to save some of this great play and energy for PHX.

Manu and Tony are fairly quiet, so they can save it for tomorrow.

I find the game very fast paced, Spurs very active and mobile.

Great to see Devin having a huge half, and hitting a few shots.

I like to see Beno being aggressive with the ball, but he's not quite there yet for finishing.

[milkyway21]

NY won BIG time vs. Wzrds, tonight FYI.

AI lost again? :cry

[boutons]

damn, 3rd qtr, Spurs collapsing again. don't blow this lead, keep playing ball, the game's only half over. defend/maintain the blowout, or at least a very comfortable.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Wow, I thought Philly got a steal in the Webber trade, but so far it's working out better for the Kings.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Rasho with the running baby hook! Hell yeah. Sean cracking up.

Rasho with a steal, a bucket, and a board, back to back to back. Nice.

[Duncanoypi]

As of now Bruce outscored Vince...

include him in the list Bruce...

[ShoogarBear]

47-28 at HT... looks like NBA champs are getting owned :)

:lol

I think maybe you don't quite understand what the US slang idiom "to be owned" means:

www.owned.com

[Guru of Nothing]

First it was Gary Payton, now it's Jason Kidd.

Ballapause does not discriminate.

[xcoriate]

:lmao I love it when Rasho unveils that ungainly old school sweeping hook shot of his... if thats indeed what it was. Pure comedy.

[milkyway21]

damn, TD is STILL playing. we need him tomorrow.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

WTF? Vince Carter loses ball, gets foul call on Duncan with no contact...

Good ol' Bennett Salvatore.

[milkyway21]

why Udrih's not playing? He is out of the current top 10 Rookie rankings already...:cry

[milkyway21]

is this a reversal of fortune? Devin missed those free throws :cry

[Guru of Nothing]

Here's an idea - MAKE A FUCKING SHOT - Somebody!

[xcoriate]

That an idea i like GoN...


Fire Pop

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Yo Pop, where's Beno?

F*ck.

[milkyway21]

substitute Tmass w/ Rasho :wtf

[Guru of Nothing]

is this a reversal of fortune? Devin missed those free throws :cry

He's playing for a (Spurs) contract.

[boutons]

Spurs score 12 points in 3rd, 3 mins left. fucking inconsistent

Are Tony and Manu suited up tonight?

[Guru of Nothing]

Barry FT #1 there was VINTAGE

[Hook Dem]

Whats with all the missed free throws all of a sudden?

[Spurs košarka kultura]

What is this shit I look at the score on nba.com and with 6:00 mins left in the 3rd were up by 20, then I go back and with 3:00 mins left the score is 59-52 what the F@#K happened?!?!?

[xcoriate]

Fernando Alonso 2005 F1 champ (wishful thinking I know, but hey what are sports without passion?)

Gee I hope so :) Good to see another F1 fan on this board particually a Renault one

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

10-20 on free throws, what crap...

[stéphane]

11/22 from FT line... no comment

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu with the big steal and goes in for the bucket on Vince, shoulda been an AND 1. Great steal by Tony on the inbounds......

then bricks the first FT. hits the second.

[Guru of Nothing]

I'm calling it now, the Spurs will not miss a FT in the 4th quarter.

[Hook Dem]

Score should be 80-58 if we had not missed free throws! Shit!!!!!!!

[stéphane]

even 80% from FT line would be fine...
but 50% holy sh1111t

[adrien]

How can a PG miss so many fts??????????? Come on TP, wake up !!!!!!!!!!

[boutons]

"missed free throws all of a sudden"

Shaq shoots FTs better than Tony. Tony throws the balll up there, holds his tongue funny, and fucking hopes it goes in. How about fucking shooting the ball for a change, full arm extension, follow through, roll off the finger tips?

Spurs defense lets nets get 30 in the 3rd. fnck sh!t p!ss damn

no garbage time, no rest, watch Carter find his shot, and hit 18 in the 4th.

[stéphane]

even barry is 2/4 :depressed

I will give a phone call to his former coach at INSEP to bark at him for that :DDD

[Guru of Nothing]

Note to self - do not play with fire.

[adrien]

I'm calling it now, the Spurs will not miss a FT in the 4th quarter.

1st ft of the 4th duncan...... miss :lol ......... :pctoss

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Ill say it - missed FTs are because mentally they're thinking ahead to tomorrow night.

[stéphane]

Carter 3/16 keep shooting the bloody ball...

[Guru of Nothing]

1st ft of the 4th duncan...... miss

Incorrect. Duncan made his first FT of the 4th.

[adrien]

the FREE THROWS disaster goes on. Even beno... :cuss

[adrien]

Incorrect. Duncan made his first FT of the 4th.

sorry about that. I see missed FTs everywhere tonight

[Duncanoypi]

what about the technical foul on t-mass?...

[stéphane]

sorry to insist but 16/32 damn its ridiculous.... how can such guys miss that many given points...

[Guru of Nothing]

"What has Brown done for you lately?"

[Spurminator]

Hope this is a turning point in Brown's season.

[stéphane]

Devin 20points close to season's high

[stéphane]

Aggie, you FT's coach, you'll be busy with these guys ^^

[Spurs košarka kultura]

Gee I hope so Good to see another F1 fan on this board particually a Renault one

Yeah Renault all the way baby!!! I still can't believe Giancarlo Fisichella and Fernando got on the podium in Melborne. AWESOME
And amazingly Coulthard isn't working at Burger King yet. :spin

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Aggie, you FT's coach, you'll be busy with these guys

Man, only six weeks til' the playoffs, there's only so much I can do. :lol

[Jimcs50]

Brown= Player of the Game!!!

[stéphane]

VC you dumbass gimme my vbookie back :p

[adrien]

VC you dumbass gimme my vbookie back :p

me either :rolleyes

[Jimcs50]

Brown: 9-12 shooting, 22 pts, 9 rebs, 2 assists and ZERO TOs

Awesome

[exstatic]

Play of the game was that zip pass from Beno to Tim after he set the pick in the lane. Time arched his back and flipped that little hook off the glass for the and1, and he MADE the FT. :lol

[Manu20]

Manu ended up with only 6 points (2 of 8) in 24 minutes. :depressed
But the Spurs won :smokin Suns better watch out for Manu tomorrow night.

BTW props to Brown 22 points (9 of 12) 9 rebounds in 35 minutes.

[wildbill2u]

Brown: 9-12 shooting, 22 pts, 9 rebs, 2 assists and ZERO TOs

Awesome

I missed the first half where most of Devin's time came. Why didn't Pop play him more in the second half? I know he was in for a while in 4th (WOAI doesn't come in too good in Houston) but it wasn't for long it seemed.

[blackbucket]

Did anyone notice JKidd doesn't do the Kiss before his free throws anymore? I guess TJ got a big head from all the attention.

[SequSpur]

Where is Manu the allstar?

[Sec24Row7]

In the starting lineup of the team that won you dipshit.

[milkyway21]

Spurs 47-13 it's now a race to first 50 WINS this season....just 13 MORE and it'll be 60W!!!
