[spurschick]

I am invoking some birthday mojo for this.

[timvp]

HB.

a

[lefty]

woohoooooo


Go Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaax !

[gingerwave]

Happy Birthday, and let's go Spurs :flag:

[Chomag]

Happy B-day to the OP!
All season worries aside :flag: :flag::flag:

Lets get some momentum heading into the playoffs and bring us home that :lobt:

[BUMP]

happy birthday, but the warriors will win this one by double digits.

[Dex]

:flag:

Happy Birthday, spurschick!

[xtremesteven33]

Mason for 20 tonight!!!

[LEONARD]

I have money on the Spurs...so they'll lose I'm sure...

[Texas_Ranger]

Happy B-Day.

[duncan228]

spurschick has some of the best mojo on ST. Glad to see it for the stretch run. Manu's lucky charm will add fuel to the fire.

[duncan228]

Oh, and :birthday:

[crc21209]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Now lets go get a W damn it!

:flag:

Happy Birthday, spurschick!

Happy Brithday spurschick.

[Bruno]

Warriors are playing better lately but Spurs should win this game.

[timvp]

The Spurs can't let this game become a shootout. They don't have the horses to score much more than 100 points right now.

[crc21209]

The Spurs can't let this game become a shootout. They don't have the horses to score much more than 100 points right now.

The Hornets just beat the Warriors down the other night without Chandler and Stojakovic..hopefully the Spurs go out there and handle their business.:ihit

[Agloco]

Win one dammit!!!!! What channel is this going to be on?

Oh and Happy B-Day Spurschick!!!

[duncan228]

What channel is this going to be on?

Previews say KMYS (my35).

[de Soto]

Happy Birthday! The Spurs have sucked so bad that they might just lose this game too. Lets hope not.

[Don Quixote]

happy birthday, but the warriors will win this one by double digits.

I actually almost agree with the douchebag on this one. Spurs lose a semi-close one, 105-98.

[Manufan909]

Previews say KMYS (my35).

Happy B-day!!!!!!!!!

And this post captures in a nutshell my pain. As soon as I move out of SA and get cable, I end up missing the chance to watch more Spurs games on TV. Even basic channel in SA got my35 and abc, which is over half the season. In Huntsville, all I get is abc, espn, tnt, and all the Rockets games on FSNSW Houston, and that all equals to maybe 25-35%.:bang

P.S. d228, how much is the LP if you break it up as much as possible? Hope it's less than a $50 a month. I guess I wouldn't pay if there weren't alot of Spurs games I really wanted to watch that month, but I bet it won't work that way.

P.P.S timvp, do you predict like I have that Hill getting sole backup PG duties coincides with Manu getting serious minutes again?

[phxspurfan]

Manu's getting really bored...I can tell by his facebook page updates today.

[de Soto]

Looks like Duncan is not playing tonite.

[mrpuente]

What are the lineups looking like?

[StoneBuddha]

Looks like Duncan is not playing tonite.

Where did you here this news? I was just wondering about that but hadn't seen any news yet.

Also, HB to the birthday girl! Hope you get what you wished for. :lobt2:

[loveforthegame]

Spurschick, Happy Birthday!! We need the mojo.

[Spursfan092120]

Happy Birthday Spurschick. Let's keel these beetches.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu Ginobili is not active. Speculation is he could return this week.

http://blogs.mysanantonio.com/weblogs/spursworld/2009/03/spurs-vs-warriors-game-chat-2.html
Yeah...he'll probably be back against Atlanta, and if not, the Clippers.

[Spursfan092120]

I'm so ready for this game....

:corn:

[silverblackfan]

:birthday: Lets see the Spurs take it to them with Defense and energy. Wouldn't mind seeing Hill handle the rock either.

[spurtilldeath]

Go Spurs Go!! Lets play more of Bowen.....

[Manufan909]

Almost there. Come on Spurs, this has been a shitty day, I need something to be positive.

[crc21209]

Something we already know..but Pop just said on the local MY35 pre-game show that Manu will be back either tomorrow or Friday. :tu

[Jobbs]

yay Spurs feed

[spurtilldeath]

Is Timmy playing today?

[VI_Massive]

looking forward to seeing Hill on Ellis.

[Bukefal]

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr 3333333333333333333333

[sonic21]

spurs can't miss

[Spurs Brazil]

TD early rest

Maybe Pop is planing to play him limited minutes today and tomorrow

[Spurs Brazil]

Time out

Spurs up 20-13

[Manufan909]

Why does Bonner keep up the trend of mssing 3s and making 2s??? He needs to do both, or the first one. Not only the second.

[Brazil]

good start for Tim I hope Pop limit his minutes

[VI_Massive]

what do you think tim told kt as kt was coming on the court?

[Brazil]

Tony !

[VI_Massive]

oh yeah udoka will kill someone

[VI_Massive]

good thing they fouled him. no way udoka makes that.

[Manufan909]

Wow, can Bonner miss an even more open an unpressured 3?

[Spurs Brazil]

Warriors 7-2 run cut to 2

[sonic21]

[Manufan909]

[Brazil]

Udoka is defending well

[Spurs Brazil]

[sonic21]

[Spurs Brazil]

[Brazil]

wow TP nice shot

[Spurs Brazil]

Damn

Here comes Mason the PG

[Manufan909]

Fuck me, Mason is still backup point.

[Brazil]

TP not happy to be benched. Mase at the point again ?

[sonic21]

no hill to back-up tony

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr J!!!!

[duncan228]

P.S. d228, how much is the LP if you break it up as much as possible? Hope it's less than a $50 a month. I guess I wouldn't pay if there weren't alot of Spurs games I really wanted to watch that month, but I bet it won't work that way.

Everywhere I've had it breaks it into 3 or 4 months for the full season. 4 months is less than $50. I always buy the early bird, that's the cheapest way for the whole season. They do a mid-season deal and then an end of season deal for less.

It's an all or nothing thing. You can't pick what months you want.

It's been worth every cent to me, but I watch every game.

You might want to see what the end of the season will cost, but there's not much left. LP ends with the regular season, all the Playoffs are national and NBA TV.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 28-25 after one

[VI_Massive]

man we are ugly with mason at the point. but gs is so bad at d its almost tolerable.....

[Brazil]

I hate to see mase running the point... he is not not good for this job

[Manufan909]

Thanks. That isn't nearly bad as I thought it would be. That's an easy bullet to bit.

[Capt Bringdown]

Our O consists of Parker and outside jumpers. No fastbreaks, no easy baskets, no slashing etc.

[45 bank shot]

why dont they try to post up gooden?
clearly hez more destructive down low rather than catchin the ball at the fT line

[de Soto]

Mason is NOT really working out for the Spurs...he's awful...again:(

[Dex]

I was under the impression that the LP package was more than that. With the playoffs looming, I'd feel silly signing up for it now, but I might have to check that out next season.

I don't miss a lot of games thanks to the intarwebs, but Im getting sick of subliminally learning chinese.

[de Soto]

And Hill sucks too...

[45 bank shot]

we are playin like shit, no doubt.
post up gooden for god's sake

[Spurs Brazil]

2nd unit playing horrible again

[TDMVPDPOY]

mason play pg again ahhahahahaa, fuck this pop experiment

[45 bank shot]

ugly offence, nothing inside

[Manufan909]

Least Hill is in, wish he got that layup to fall.

[Dex]

Stephen Jackson averages 6 dimes a game? WTF? That's almost as many as Tony, and he runs point!

[45 bank shot]

goodennnn

[Spurs Brazil]

Gooden scores but again a shot at the end of the clock

[Mugen]

we need manu back with this 2nd unit asap

[Libri]

Mason j

[de Soto]

Mason must have heard the critics...should hit his shots more often...:rolleyes

[Manufan909]

Hill doesn't give a fuck what Pop has to say.:lol

[Dex]

That was weird. It looked like Hill just blew off both Pop and Tim while walking back to the bench. :wow

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Man, you know it's going bad offensively when the Warriors can keep you in check.

[45 bank shot]

the thing is we r not gettin inside. just settlin for ugly jumpers

[Spurs Brazil]

Tie at 32

Time out

[Amuseddaysleeper]

:lol are you guys serious aboout Hill?

[45 bank shot]

remeber last night seein the suns attacking the basketball, feelin pretty jealous

[VI_Massive]

Stephen Jackson averages 6 dimes a game? WTF? That's almost as many as Tony, and he runs point!

if Tony played in Nelson's system and was surrounded by offensive players like Jackson is, how many assists/game do you think he'd have?

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill needs to attack Ellis to force the 3rd foul

[de Soto]

Meanwhile Thunder is getting massacred by the Lakers. Different universe in LA...

[SpursFan0728]

Pop and his stubbornness

[Brazil]

That was weird. It looked like Hill just blew off both Pop and Tim while walking back to the bench. :wow

noticed that too

[VI_Massive]

Hill needs to attack Ellis to force the 3rd foul

that's the only way we've been able to stop him. keep him on the pine.

[Manufan909]

:lol are you guys serious aboout Hill?

Indeed. He slowed down when Timmy starting talking to him, but walked by Pop like nothing. And he kept his back to both.

[024]

duncan not coming back in?

[Spurs Brazil]

Oberto in

[45 bank shot]

now we r goin small, just stupid

[VI_Massive]

this is the solution for getting offense from our second unit for now......go small.

[de Soto]

The current crew is really awful...shit, in fact...

[duncan228]

I was under the impression that the LP package was more than that. With the playoffs looming, I'd feel silly signing up for it now, but I might have to check that out next season.

LP starts the first day of the regular season and ends the last. You don't get any pre or post game.

I've had it for years. I prefer the games on my TV and I watch every one so it's well worth it for me. I'm not in a blackout area for the Spurs, so the only games LP won't have are the national ones. (Or the Lakers/Clippers which I get on the local channels). It works well for me.

It probably would be silly getting it now, only a few weeks left.

[VI_Massive]

now we r goin small, just stupid

I actually like it when we go small. I think we play better and its the only way for us to score w/o TP on the floor.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

duncan not coming back in?

This was making me nervous as well.

I'm hoping Pop will bring him in after the next timeout, just cause I hope he's okay.

[45 bank shot]

finleyyy

c'mon guys rebound pls

[Spurs Brazil]

Oberto really set good screens

[Spurs Brazil]

Oberto is alive, playing good again

[45 bank shot]

Oberto really set good screens

agree n he moves well without the ball

[VI_Massive]

oh that's ugly fabricio

[Manufan909]

Damn, FTs don't go towards fastbreak pts do they?

[de Soto]

Oberto = worthless

[duncan228]

Spurs Brazil, spursdotcom says audio LP is back up.

[Dex]

It probably would be silly getting it now, only a few weeks left.

:tu The best review of anything comes from a paying customer.

Since all the playoff games will be televised, I'll prolly just wait it out. But next season, I'll have to be bugging Time Warner. That's always a lot of fun.

[Libri]

Mason with a long jumper

[024]

mason can't miss.

[45 bank shot]

wow roger

[Yorae]

Pinky....

[sonic21]

mason J

[de Soto]

Need to put down Mason more often...

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr again

Those Oberto screens should count as a assists

[Dex]

Mason looking good. 6-8 so far?

Except for that behind the back. lol

[VI_Massive]

somebody pour some water on mason!!

[45 bank shot]

Damn, FTs don't go towards fastbreak pts do they?

nah they dont cuz the play is stopped

[SpursFan0728]

Oberto making his presence felt

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs Brazil, spursdotcom says audio LP is back up.

Thanks a lot

[vander]

somebody pour some water on mason!!

no don't!!!!!

[Dex]

So did Bill and Sean say that they did NOT count Bonner's shot attempt in the Houston game? Not even the FGA?

Collusion!

[Brazil]

at least Mason can shoot

[Manufan909]

Oberto making his presence felt

But, but, de Soto says he sucks!?!?! Stupid Pop for not listening to the internet coaches on ST.:hat

[Spurs Brazil]

If Pop wanto to play Mason at PG he must play Oberto with him

[Brazil]

Lol at Manu !!

[45 bank shot]

lol at manu and ian

[lefty]

LOL at Manu :lol Kiss me Cam

[Manufan909]

Manu just kissed Ian.:lol

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

You can tell that Pop is still trying to work out how to use this team. He's experimenting with both his big rotation and his backup PG rotation, and I think that's been partly responsible for the upset of late.

[Dex]

Manu and Ian on the kiss cam, wo0 wo0.

Ginobili cracks me up.

[manufor3]

no don't!!!!!

:lol

[WalterBenitez]

Roger's been reading ST's forum :D

[Slydragon]

lol Manu

[Spurs Brazil]

TP!

Spurs up 6

[sonic21]

tony again

[Samr]

Wow. I want to see that clip on youtube. Mahinmi's face was priceless. It went from the whole "aww that's cute" to the "wait, what the hell are they doing?" Manu smiled then "oh shit" Awesome.

[lefty]

Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaax !!!!!


No, wait ....

[TheDarkSide.]

Just started watching the game. Has Timmy played at all or is he resting this game?

[Libri]

Manu and Ian ------> :makeout

:rollin

[sonic21]

nice D

[Libri]

Fab with two offensive rebonds

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr!!!

[sonic21]

mason with the J

[de Soto]

Mason's on fire...about time too...

[VI_Massive]

no need to give timmy lots of minutes. gs plays small and we can too.

he's been out since 7:00 or so in the first. i bet he plays half the third quarter and that's it. like doc did with kg against us.

[Spurs Brazil]

is duncan hurt? 4 minutes???

No, Pop just trying to rest him for tomorrow

[Manufan909]

Mason always taking the shot pisses me off just like when TP dribbles out the clock, but he is making over half of them, but it's still annoying that it's Fab and Mason, with 3 Spurs who could be cutouts for all they're doing on O.

[Dex]

is duncan hurt? 4 minutes???

Either his knees are really aching today, or Pops just gone CIA again. He looks like he wants back in the game, so I'm thinking the latter.

Even if he runs in the second half, I still don't see the point of giving him 5-10 minutes tho. Either play him enough to make a difference, or let him rest.

[WalterBenitez]

wow Mason is playing really well, right?

[de Soto]

GS is such a shit team...this game is WAAAYYYY too close...

[Dex]

God I can't wait to see Wonder Bread out on the court again.

[Manu-of-steel]

this is bad. we're letting a team like warriors to hang on

[Brazil]

No, Pop just trying to rest him for tomorrow

yeah but why resting Gooden ???? He needs to play solid minutes NOW

[Spurs Brazil]

TO to Oberto

Spurs up 2

[Josepatches_]

No, Pop just trying to rest him for tomorrow

So why he played 4 minutes? It's dumb.Are they trying to down his stats per game?

His knees are worse

[de Soto]

Pop is frustrated w/ Oberto too...

[tlongII]

Warriors with the lead!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I've got a bad feeling - we should be leading this by 10, but the D just isn't there.

And why we're not feeding Gooden some 4-down I have no idea. He's a 4-down player for fucksake!

[Spurs Brazil]

Warriors up 2 at the half

[boutons_]

Crappy, meaningless game, at least that's how the Spurs are playing it.

[Libri]

Miss by Bruce
Spurs down by 2

[tlongII]

GS up by two at the half!

[sonic21]

tony+mason : 34 pts
rest of team : 18 pts

[45 bank shot]

GS up by two at the half!

Ye n ur team lost last night

[Brazil]

Warriors with the lead!

a comment on yesterday game?

[45 bank shot]

itz a shame how spurs r playin lately

[Manufan909]

Shit, play Gooden as a post player Pop, don't make him shoot fadeaways and long jumpers.

[Capt Bringdown]

Only Tony is able/willing to take it to the rim. We're a jump shooting team now, wooohoo!

[tomtom]

at least mason finally playing better offense, defense needs work and the bench needs to start producing

[45 bank shot]

Shit, play Gooden as a post player Pop, don't make him shoot fadeaways and long jumpers.

save it bro, pop never listens, more importantly, he never reads spurs talk.
u can tell from Mason still playin the Pg

[VI_Massive]

damn gs has some shooters.

[Manu-of-steel]

spurs will clamp down on defense in the 3rd quarter, hopefully. we badly need this game.

[screw_ston713]

so much for that easy W. Spurs better get it together

[Mavs<Spurs]

So, this is how our team looks without Tim Duncan.

The future is starting now.

:bang:wow:(:depressed

[BlackSwordsMan]

what happened to the spurs

[Capt Bringdown]

itz a shame how spurs r playin lately

Just going thru the motions at this point. Not a championship caliber team, I see fishing in our near future unless a miracle turnaround happens.

[Brazil]

spurs will clamp down on defense in the 3rd quarter, hopefully. we badly need this game.

Amen

[Don Quixote]

I actually almost agree with the douchebag on this one. Spurs lose a semi-close one, 105-98.

I stand by my pick. Spurs will keep it close but lose late in the fourth. If I could, I would bet real American v-bookie dollars on this one.

[Josepatches_]

tony+mason : 34 pts
rest of team : 18 pts


Yes,they can score easily.
Warriors's D is the worst of the NBA.Warriors and defense are opposite words.

But TP and Mason's D is really bad too.Ellis scores when he wants

[crc21209]

Just going thru the motions at this point. Not a championship caliber team, I see fishing in our near future unless a miracle turnaround happens.

Please. Nut up man. Tim only played 4-5 mins. Manu isnt out there. The GS State team can score like crazy. We're fine...

[Mavs<Spurs]

so much for that easy W. Spurs better get it together

What easy W is that?

When we can't beat the Thunder, we're in so much trouble that I can't really do justice to it.

I've never seen this out of Tim Duncan. Tim Duncan is at best now a role player and can try to defend the paint.

He shoots 40% from the field, can score maybe 12 points and grab 6 rebounds.

And there sure as hell is no need at all to double team him.

:lmao

At this point in time , Gooden >>>>>>>>>>>> Tim Duncan.

That's not good.

We're in trouble. First round exit.

[mVp]

We’re a lottery team without Tim and Manu :depressed

[Dex]

Everybody needs to calm down. Whatever happened to standing behind your team through thick and thin?

The Spurs are playing with 1.5 of the Big Three. Maybe not even that. And we're right in the thick of things.

Winning a title isn't supposed to be easy, and it doesn't get handed to anybody.

[duncan228]

So, this is how our team looks without Tim Duncan.

:(

I'll always be a Spurs fan, it's Duncan's team. But the game will lose something for me when he retires. And I've been an NBA fan since Bird's rookie season. I've just never seen a player like him and I know there will never be another one.

[Mavs<Spurs]

I stand by my pick. Spurs will keep it close but lose late in the fourth. If I could, I would bet real American v-bookie dollars on this one.

Hey, that's not even a hard call. That's just something that tells us whether or not a person is a realist or is a total homer.

I agree with the call as do all the sane members on the board.

I wish it weren't true and I will still cheer for my team, the Spurs.

But the Spurs are now literally without exaggeration at this point in time one of the worst teams in basketball.

That is not an overstatement.

[ducks]

this is tps team sorry
duncan last year
tp this year

[Josepatches_]

So, this is how our team looks without Tim Duncan.

The future is starting now.

:bang:wow:(:depressed


We are a lottery team without TD.And we are going to be without him early if his knees can't improve.

Next years we are going to see how good Pop is

[Manufan909]

So, this is how our team looks without Tim Duncan.

The future is starting now.

:bang:wow:(:depressed

Or Manu, or Ian, or Gist, or Hairston or Hill at PG, or Bowen getting serious minutes. Get away from the ledge, this team is nowhere near full strength. It is dissapointing how they've been playing so far. I want Hill to go back to his attacking self. He did drive once, but got stuffed.:depressed

And I'm glad Pop doesn't read ST. For every good thread there or 20 retarded ones. If we had coached this season, the Spurs would be lottery-bound for sure.:p:

[Ditty]

come on spurs put the warriors away

i want to go to the movies :D

[Don Quixote]

Wait a sec ... aren't you a Mavs fan? Isn't that what the < stands for? Or is it >? I don't know.

We don't have the firepower to stay competitive with these teams, and this year's squad doesn't play nearly good enough defense to make up. Throw in the injuries and poor play as of late, and we're looking at a quick 1-and-done in the playoffs.

Now ... if they get healthy and play better, they might make it to a WCF showdown with the Lakers, which will end badly for us.

But ... let's hope we're wrong. eh?

[Capt Bringdown]

Everybody needs to calm down. Whatever happened to standing behind your team through thick and thin?


Pratice what you preach, Reverend. Calm down indeed. Criticizing or even feeling despondent about our team does not equal not standing behind your team, unless you're a really simple person who only sees things in binary terms.

[Libri]

Ime and Bruce starting the 3rd quarter

[Mavs<Spurs]

Or Manu, or Ian, or Gist, or Hairston or Hill at PG, or Bowen getting serious minutes. Get away from the ledge, this team is nowhere near full strength. It is dissapointing how they've been playing so far. I want Hill to go back to his attacking self. He did drive once, but got stuffed.:depressed

I still love the Spurs and I will keep cheering for them. So, I'm not going away from my team. They will always be my team.

But I am just saying in terms of performance right now at this point in the season this is how the team looks to me.


Question though:what exactly does full strength mean if Tim Duncan will be a 12 point 6 rebound 40 % field goal player for the rest of this season ?

To me, if he is in this condition, then we are nowhere near full strength even if everybody else were 100% healthy.

With everybody else fully healthy and with the lineup changes (as you suggest) and this kind of Tim Duncan, we may be at best a middle of the road team and not the worst team in basketball.

But we don't have everybody healthy now, we are making poor decisions in terms of who is playing and at what position and Tim is playing at a 12 point 6 rebound 40 % level. When all of those things are true, then we are one of the worst teams in basketball.


:bang

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner!!!!!!!!

[mrcoon29]

Sounds like we need a round of "GO SPURS GO!" OR "Come on, Dammit! Play Ball!"

[Spurs Brazil]

Td!

[tomtom]

Bs

[Brazil]

Even without Tim and Manu, this team has all when it needs to destroy the warriors.

I blame Pop for messing around the team. IMO we just need to let Gooden on the floor and put systems in place to post up the guy and not letting him shooting jumpers, Bowen needs to play solid minutes to shut down Ellis and let Hill running the point when TP is not here !

[Mavs<Spurs]

Wait a sec ... aren't you a Mavs fan? Isn't that what the < stands for? Or is it >? I don't know.

We don't have the firepower to stay competitive with these teams, and this year's squad doesn't play nearly good enough defense to make up. Throw in the injuries and poor play as of late, and we're looking at a quick 1-and-done in the playoffs.

Now ... if they get healthy and play better, they might make it to a WCF showdown with the Lakers, which will end badly for us.

But ... let's hope we're wrong. eh?


it's less than. I'm a math person but I encounter this all the time.

No worries, you aren't the only one.

The mouth opens towards the bigger meal because the crocodile is hungry !

I love the Spurs and I hate the Mavericks and I definitely hope that we are both wrong! I really want our team to win and I'm not going to stop cheering for them in any event ! We've had too many great moments that these guys have given us, in particular Tim Duncan !

Hey, that's not even a hard call. That's just something that tells us whether or not a person is a realist or is a total homer.

I agree with the call as do all the sane members on the board.

I wish it weren't true and I will still cheer for my team, the Spurs.

But the Spurs are now literally without exaggeration at this point in time one of the worst teams in basketball.

That is not an overstatement.

:rolleyes

That entire post is overstatement, and we will not lose this game.

The team is currently in disarray due to injuries and upsets in the rotation, combined with a severe shooting slump, and although the D has been crap today, the general trend is towards excellence (by most stats we are now the second best defensive team around).

Once Manu comes back, Pop settles the rotation, and we come out of this shooting slump (signs that we are tonight), we'll look like a contender again, although Tim's health is crucial to our trophy hopes.
