March 16: Spurs @ Thunder Game Blog

[tlongII]

It was definitely a horrible loss for the Spurs. We've had some bad losses too, but this late in the season is a bad time for them.

[mabrignani]

i understand that we are still 2nd and thats all well and good. but when we lose to a team like this it doesnt matter what seed we are.

[Spursmania]

LMAO...the Spurs have to lose to the Thunder to get fired up to play the WOLVES????

Good thing they lost tonight then, huh?:lol

Dude are you a Spurs fan or a Bandwagon fan? WTF? It happens. You act like it's a crisis. get a grip.:rolleyes

[Ice009]

Spurs need a free throw coach!

Yes we do.

[Spursmania]

WTF are you guys talking about TP choking??

Tp was a bit tired!!! hes been the only one keeping us in the game!!!

We should of had Duncan and gooden together

Yeah, they all played for shit period. They need to blow off this game (which apparently they already did when they let the thunder come back), and get ready for tomorrow's game.

[iilluzioN]

I would start:

Parker
Mason
Finley
Gooden
Duncan


No, we don't need Finley to start.. with my lineup theres plenty of ways to score the ball. We need good D. The same D that we are known for.

[ducks]

Spurs should be in their groove by now, new guys worked in, playing their game rather than getting played.

gooden was just cleared
dumbass

[Spork KIller]

the spurms won't be the second seed by seasons end...

MARK MY WORDS !

[Spursmania]

Dude, all great teams have shitty nights. That's sports. It happens. They'll regroup and man up. This is typical Spurs-- they play for shit against shitty teams sometimes.

They all sucked tonight and Pop's rotations sucked. On to the Timberwolves.

[Ice009]

What I find funny is that I saw some posts in here saying "WE need Manu" "If only Manu was there" "I miss Manu.

Man, sorry to say but if we truly need Manu (which we shouldn't) to beat the OKC Thunders then we are in serious trouble.

This lose was pathetic, our team has no excuses to have lost this one.

Yeah I agree with that. If people want Manu back to beat OKC then Pop has really screwed the Spurs up by saying that we need Manu to win. He's been saying that too much lately and maybe it's hurting the other players confidence.

[Technique]

There's no real reason we wouldn't hold the 2nd seed. if you look at the Rockets schedule they have some pretty decent teams ahead including Lakers, Jazz, Magic, Detroit, Blazers. While we have The the first 3 games then the Cavs and Jazz. I sense a winning streak coming up.

[spursfanmom]

Did anyone get to see the game? We were following on the internet since it wasn't on TV here in Austin. What happened in the final 18 seconds? Did we get a shot off? Who took it?
Wow - I want Manu back!!!!:flag:

[HarlemHeat37]

we just beat the Rockets, it has nothing to do with Manu..this team isn't in trouble...shuuuuutttt theeee fuuuuuck upppppp...

[Spursfan092120]

Hi Louis.

[Spursmania]

Hell no, that's not it. You really think the guys are like Manu, "we need you to win at OKC." Come on-no way! They had a shitty night. It happens. Who cares that it was OKC. Spurs are known to fuck around when they play lesser teams. Spurs always do this shit. Frankly, I hate when they play crappy teams, they get sloppy and overconfident. This game was pathetic, but great teams sometimes lose to crappy teams for a variety of reasons. They'll come back roaring.

[JohnnySixString]

Dude are you a Spurs fan or a Bandwagon fan? WTF? It happens. You act like it's a crisis. get a grip.:rolleyes

LMFAO...:lmao

Crisis???? :lol In the end, none of this shit matters. If the Spurs play well and win or play like shit and lose, life still goes on. Nobody on this board is getting a ring or a big fat check. Just those guys playing to entertain us. Too bad most people haven't learned not to take this shit SO fucking seriously. What the fuck does it matter, bandwagon or "real" fan? I guess you are a "real" fan though. For fuck's sake, it's just a game for us to watch. Quit acting like you're actually on the team or something. :rollin

[rayray2k8]

fuck this shit, i cant stand losing to a team like this. this is not spurs basketball and playin like this = a first round exit. glad we beat houston and all but damn, the thunder?

wtf?
this bothers you???
if this loss hurts you, then the playoffs will prove to be fatal.
Stop watching then..

[Blame Tracy]

Tough loss for the Spurs.. :wow

[tlongII]

Very bad loss for the Spurs. Probably their worst loss of the season to date.

[honestfool84]

Hi Louis.

why the heck do you reply and say "hi louis"

he's never denied being louis.

i don't think he gives a flying rat's ass if you know who he is.

just ignore him.

[Rogue]

thunders are actually a very good team with potential and talent, i bet that next season the thunders will do what the blazers are doing this season, and the unfortunate team that will give up their playoff seat for thunders will definitely be either Jazz or Rockets. With CP on team the hornets still will have 2 or 3 good seasons to go, and the spurs have successfully re-juvenated a little bit by getting Hill and Mason so there will also be several good seasons for spurs in the following seasons.

[timaios]

San Antonio starters +/-
Parker +7
Mason +3
Duncan +6
Finley +4
Bonner +2

Oklahoma City starters +/-
Sefolosha -7
Westbrook -12
Krstic -5
Durant -6
Green -8

San Antonio bench +/-
Udoka -1
Hill -16 (in 15')
Gooden -2
Thomas -2
Bowen -11 (in 4')

Oklahoma City bench +/-
Collison +18
Weaver +12
Atkins +14
Rose +4

No shit Sherlock. That's my point moron. And, you are definitely a bandwagon fan. :lol

[iilluzioN]

I don't agree,

Manu is a big part of our success over the years, Manu's energy carries to the other players, and Pop just speaks the truth.

[Spursfan092120]

Just giving him a hello, as a sarcastic way of responding without acknowledging. Settle down man...

[honestfool84]

im just saying..feeding the troll doesn't help.

[ducks]

spurs maybe be 5-5
yes tp is scoring more
but mason has not scored
and that is about when pop went to mason as a backup point guard
players are doing different things

but blame tp for everything

[Spursfan092120]

im just saying..feeding the troll doesn't help.
But I'm not feeding him. Feeding him would be getting upset at what he's saying. I'm actually doing the exact opposite.

[mabrignani]

wtf?
this bothers you???
if this loss hurts you, then the playoffs will prove to be fatal.
Stop watching then..

that makes no sense...we losy to a team that is no where near the calibur of a playoff team. this is close to the end of the season and we should be killin teams like this. this is worse than the Netherlands beating the Domincan Republic twice in the WBC
if ur a spurs fan than this loss does bother you. you cant not be bothered when you lose to a team that has <20 wins.

[JohnnySixString]

No shit Sherlock. That's my point moron. And, you are definitely a bandwagon fan. :lol

Yeah, well you're dad's the world's biggest pussy and your mother's a dumb whore. No wonder their offspring is such a stupid fucking piece of excrement. I can say that with the same confidence as you do calling me a bandwagon fan. :toast

What class you exude. You sound like a Laker fan when they can't think of anything intelligent to say they cuss. You know like prepubescent children. You sir, fail!:lmao:lmao:lmao

I know it's kind of sad, really. Unless, he's really 13 then I get it. Definitely a bandwagon fan just up to no good. Talk to someone your own level dude. You're a waste of time.

You responded to me first, dickwad. Seems to me you were looking for someone at your level to talk to in the first place. Trying to make yourself the "good" Spurs fan. But hey, I don't think you're a waste of time. Just a worthless piece of shit trying to inflate his tiny little ego.
Keep huffing fuckface, keep huffing.

[Ice009]

Come on guys try not to rag on each other. Anyway that you look at it this was a bad loss for the Spurs. If you don't think it was then I don't know what to say.

Hey, puppy kicker! :p: just kidding....

Yeah, definitely a bad loss. Only themselves to blame though. Again. It would be nice if they stopped taking all these shitty teams so lightly.

[Don Quixote]

No huge deal. The Spurs will be fine, make it into the playoffs as a Top 4 seed, probably knock off 1-2 teams, and then get pounded by the Lakers.

This Spurs team is a good squad and that's all. Not a championship contender.

^ Unfortunately, this is probably true, if Manu isn't 100%.

[Spursmania]

Yep, Spurs need Manu. Post game talk after tonight's game Pop said Manu might be out another week or two? Damn... another 2 weeks?

[Russ]

The Spurs lost it at the line (they prevailed in virtually every other stat).

[dirk4mvp]

What a way for your 1,000th game to go.
