Spurs Vs Hornets - Mar 29 Game blog

[Thomas82]

I can't believe the refs blew these calls the way they did.

[jag]

What a game. 7-28 from downtown.

Hubie Brown can sit on a fuckin broomstick.

[Ice009]

Tony Parker is a bitch. if I was TP I would tell Paul he is a fucking bitch and we ain't friends no more.

[Libri]

:depressed:ihit:bang

[Spursfan092120]

Congratulations Hornets..the Refs love you. Bullshit.

[Duncan2177]

SOB:bang

[Manufan909]

Wow, didn't notice the Parker jersey pull or Parker hack, but the Manu foul on the 3? Oh yeah.

[Brazil]

and pathetic country by the way

[Flo-Rida]

Congratulations Hornets..the Refs love you. Bullshit.

:lol

[jag]

I wonder if CP knows that his nasty little chin strap facial hair makes him look like a fackin homo.

[arodz]

That ESPN cunt looked like she wants to blow CP3.

[Spursfan092120]

How do you miss 2 fouls in the backcourt on Paul? seriously..

[gospursgojas]

Bet no one talks about that call though

I'll be suprise to see it talked about on Sportscenter

[Thomas82]

Wow this shit is rigged.

Big time!!!

[Spurologist]

CP3 is a very good defender. He has outplayed Parker big time

Did you watch the game?? TP held his own

Fans picking out tp as the scapegoat again. Fuckin pathetic

[Borosai]

Spurs pathetic for taking and missing so many wide-open 3s.
Spurs pathetic for letting Sean Marks school them (especially Duncan)
Spurs pathetic for sucking against a depleted Hornets team while being at full strength.

Refs are fucking morons for not calling an obvious foul that sealed the game.

[Mal]

they should cut his head, to get the call

[jag]

That ESPN cunt looked like she wants to blow CP3.

not half as bad as Hubie.

[Spurtacus]

NBA referees are a fucking joke. Bullshit game is still rigged.

[Amarelooms]

Haha why are you Spurs fans crying...Spurs deserved to lose. Sure the should have call the reach in foul in the backcourt but Manu did foul him when he was shooting the 3....Manu is a moron as usual

[arodz]

Refs gave them the game, but at the same time, Spurs should have fouled West immediately the first time.

[Manufan909]

Now I get to wait 2 days cuz I'm sick of the pattern of ST meltdowns over any loss. Except for ir's.

[vanishing_dude]

thank you refs for making the hornets win..the spurs cant win if the refs r on the side of the hornets..

[jag]

Haha why are you Spurs fans crying...Spurs deserved to lose. Sure the should have call the reach in foul in the backcourt but Manu did foul him when he was shooting the 3....Manu is a moron as usual

Tony tried to foul him in the backcourt...not sure wtf you were watching.

[spursfan09]

Tony Parker is a bitch. if I was TP I would tell Paul he is a fucking bitch and we ain't friends no more.

:nope

You are a jackass

[tony09manu]

awww...ESPN is so happy. Look at the sideline reporter.

-rolls eyes-

[Ice009]

FUCK THIS NBA FUCKING LEAGUE.

CHRIS PAUL is the number 1 player on my shitlist. yes even over Jason Terry and other bitches.

Paul Number 1 bitch in the NBA. I'd be disgusted if he was on my team.

[Capt Bringdown]

Pointless to blame the refs IMO.

Spurs had an opportunity to foul West on the previous possession. Following that, they weren't prepared for the Hornets throwing the ball into backcourt.

[Biggems]

well the Spurs lost this one when they didnt make all those open 3s.

they had a FT advantage of 20 to 15 at one point in the game......then they did nothing but shoot from the outside the rest of the game.

NO kept attacking the basket and got to the line.

As much of a bitch as CP3 is and as bad as the refs were on that last sequence and all throughout the game buying Paul's bullshit....the fact remains the Spurs' bricks are what killed them.

[mVp]

They couldn't even foul that bitch hard when he was dribbling... they fucking sucked tonight.

[JohnnySixString]

Yes, if it wasn't for the refs the Spurs would have won. Because we all know the loss has nothing to do with the Spurs' game.

[Spursmania]

Spurs pathetic for taking and missing so many wide-open 3s.
Spurs pathetic for letting Sean Marks school them (especially Duncan)
Spurs pathetic for sucking against a depleted Hornets team while being at full strength.

Refs are fucking morons for not calling an obvious foul that sealed the game.

:tu

[NRHector]

how come we never get calls like that in our own home court?

[Brazil]

Haha why are you Spurs fans crying...Spurs deserved to lose. Sure the should have call the reach in foul in the backcourt but Manu did foul him when he was shooting the 3....Manu is a moron as usual

You are not on the chat room with your friends ? nothing better to do than trolling a spurs fans site ? you're like nba ref pathetic

[KenGee21]

Where the fuck is Horry with a crunch time hip check when you need him?!!

This one really hurts....

[Ice009]

Haha why are you Spurs fans crying...Spurs deserved to lose. Sure the should have call the reach in foul in the backcourt but Manu did foul him when he was shooting the 3....Manu is a moron as usual

Manu was trying to foul because that fucking shit was not called in the back court. what is he supposed to do let the time run out?

Anyway Manu played good again.

Mason Jr, Bonner both fucking suck. Bruce needs court time over Ime too. Ime has blown it. He should not be out there unless we need a small ball 4 or someone to guard a big body like Artest.

[Don Quixote]

I should have bet real American v-bookie dollars on this one.

Spurs can't beat anyone good, let alone on the road.

[SpursDynasty]

This game was not a big deal to me. This game was about as big a deal as a Memphis Grizzlies or OKC Thunder game. We beat these guys already in the playoffs (after being down 0-2). Nothing to prove against NOH.

[tony09manu]

The league will do nothing. It makes me lose faith in it. If you don't reprimend things like this, of course the refs aren't going to fix their mistakes.

Granted, the refs did not cost us the game. We lost on our own.

[Duncan2177]

Stupid ass refs they gave this one to the hornets, Hey refs go suck the hornets players dicks after the game you fucken fags.

[arodz]

Haha why are you Spurs fans crying...Spurs deserved to lose. Sure the should have call the reach in foul in the backcourt but Manu did foul him when he was shooting the 3....Manu is a moron as usual


Your profile says Mavricks Fan...nuff said.

[alchemist]

can't blame the god damn refs on that shitty mothafuckin' foul, the Spurs could've iced the game had Pop kept the ball in Tony's hands instead of him roaming the court. Pop got too cute with micromanaging the game that it blew up in his fuckin' face! :bang :pctoss

I need to take up smoking/drinking or something with Pops bullshit :lol

[Russ]

More Gooden and less Bonner in cruchtime would be good.

But the frustration from this loss will be a positive for the team going forward.

[Ice009]

The league will do nothing. It makes me lose faith in it. If you don't reprimend things like this, of course the refs aren't going to fix their mistakes.

Granted, the refs did not cost us the game. We lost on our own.

I'm going to break down the loss like this 50% on Pop 40% on the players and 10% on the refs.

Now way I'd blame this whole loss on the refs, but they did contribute at least a little to it.

[Don Quixote]

We've got another good team on the road next Sunday. Cleveland. That one has 20-pt loss written all over it.

[arodz]

This game was not a big deal to me. This game was about as big a deal as a Memphis Grizzlies or OKC Thunder game. We beat these guys already in the playoffs (after being down 0-2). Nothing to prove against NOH.

Are you insane? We just might play this team in the first round. And the Hornets were without Tyson Chandler, Peja Stovakvic and James Posey. What's the Spurs excuse? Not interested enough??

[TampaDude]

I'm not one to believe conspiracy theories, but this game is starting to sway me in that direction. Pop needs to send a letter to the NBA over this one. Yes, the Spurs should have won this one easily, and they would have if they had hit a couple more shots, but that ending was, in a word, inexcusable...the refs deliberately ignored, and thus violated, the rules to ensure a Hornets victory. BTW, I believe the Spurs lost because there was $$$ on the line...someone would have won ONE MILLION DOLLARS tonight from ESPN if the Spurs had won. The call came down from on high, and the fix was in.

[Spurtacus]

Haha why are you Spurs fans crying...Spurs deserved to lose. Sure the should have call the reach in foul in the backcourt but Manu did foul him when he was shooting the 3....Manu is a moron as usual

Says the Mavs fan.

[Pentagruel]

This game was lost by the Spurs despite one of the most despicable sequences of refereeing I have ever seen in the NBA.

The simple path to victory was to give the ball to Tony Parker but alas they felt chucking three balls all night long was a more productive course of action.

[td4mvp21]

It probably wasn't deliberate but it was still a big fucking mistake. And it needs to be corrected. Crack down on that shit. That officially ended the game!

[Ice009]

More Gooden and less Bonner in cruchtime would be good.

When is Gooden going to play?

All these fucking games that Pop has tried to sit Gooden out of to WIN have ALL BEEN LOSSES. Should have just played Gooden in all of them to get experience. Instead Gooden has no experience and they are all losses.

Matt Bonner missing threes in crunch time. I reckon Manu would want Horry back after giving him the same set ups that he'd give Big Shot Rob and watch Bonner clang 90% of them.

[Spursmania]

Look Spurs sucked tonight. But they deserved a chance to get the ball back. I mean those refs knew the Spurs were going to try to foul Paul. That was the only way the Spurs would get the ball back. I mean come on!! Fucking middle school refs could have done a better job. I mean at least do your fucking job with some integrity and basketaball IQ. Both players fouling Paul and the refs just missed the call when all night they had been giving Paul quick calls. What a crock...

[TampaDude]

Get ready for the Lakers-Cavs Finals, folks!!!

[arodz]

Season Finale, April 15th...rematch...AT&T Center. Division title may be on the line.

[Ice009]

Parker doesn't get anywhere near the same amount of respect Paul does. That is obvious watching this game.

NBA REFS SUCK.

[tony09manu]

I wouldn't say DELIBERATELY so much as it was just a horrible, incompetent mistake. I also wouldn't say that there was $$$ involved.

[Biggems]

Chris Paul gets the call at the end that Brent Barry couldnt.......Superstar bias anyone?

[Mugen]

This team is going to live or die by the 3 this season.

deal with it people.

[Manufan909]

They couldn't even foul that bitch hard when he was dribbling... they fucking sucked tonight.

Hacking is hacking motherfucker. Refs missed two fouls, and on purpose. They only wouldn't have missed a flagrant.

I agree on the sucky 3 shooting. 25% on mostly open 3s, Spurs will lose almost every time. Glad Gooden got 20 mins again, but cuz of Bonner and KT fouling, not Pop trusting in him. He did awesome on offense, but didn't board the way he usually does. I didn't watch alot when he was in, so I don't know for sure how his D was.

[tony09manu]

Chris Paul gets the call at the end that Brent Barry couldnt.......Superstar bias anyone?

Yeah, I think so. Whether conciously or not...it always appears that way.

[alchemist]

also, we have to thank Roger Mason and crew for not holding it down to end the 3rd Quarter, that momentum swing was pretty damn big.

[tomtom]

enough with the 3's... there seriously needs to be more driving the lane. bad loss

[tony09manu]

We're still number 2 and have a game against the Thunder on Tuesday. I wouldn't worry.

[Roxsfan]

If the spurs had mugged chris paul in the backcourt instead of just blowing kisses to him as he split the D and went to Manu--they would have won this game......................

[TampaDude]

The Spurs don't give me any confidence AT ALL that they are a title contender this year...

[TampaDude]

We're still number 2 and have a game against the Thunder on Tuesday. I wouldn't worry.

I'm laying ALL my vBookie on OKC...it's a lock.

[Pauleta14]

CP3 is a very good defender. He has outplayed Parker big time

Are you kidding?
tp didn't have a bad game (20pts 8/15, 7ast, 3rbds, 2to), Tim and manu
did.
+ TP didn't feel as free to do what he wants as CP did...
NO= only a big "1", everythings goes through him, so if you add the BS ref calls...

Our Big3 needs to adapt again to each other (playing time, shot selection, calls...)

[Amuseddaysleeper]

The Spurs don't give me any confidence AT ALL that they are a title contender this year...

You along with 85% of the posters.

Oh, and there's about 9 games left till the playoffs.

[arodz]

BTW: Can someone tell me why Chris Paul doesn't get called for carrying like on every other play?

[tony09manu]

I'm laying ALL my vBookie on OKC...it's a lock.

It's possible....but I doubt it.

[mVp]

Exactly.

[Spursmania]

You're right about that. They should have knocked the shit out of him, so there would be no doubt it was a foul:lol:lol

[alchemist]

but Parker is butt buddies with Paul so that would never happen :depressed

[Spursmania]

:tu

[tp2021]

I want to hear what Pop says about this.

[arodz]

Pop took the high road about the refs.

[Arrowch4]

Get ready for the Lakers-Cavs Finals, folks!!!
if that happens go cav's

[Pauleta14]

I think Pop took TP out of the game too early in the 3rd and in too early in the fourth...
And this wasn' a game to make some adjustments with manu, I mean there are easiers games coming for that!
It was a must win game "psychlgicaly" because we'll probably face them in the 1st round...
He should have kept TP as the main option, to get him rolling find his rythm (Tony often talks about it) and run the team!

[Ice009]

Look Spurs sucked tonight. But they deserved a chance to get the ball back. I mean those refs knew the Spurs were going to try to foul Paul. That was the only way the Spurs would get the ball back. I mean come on!! Fucking middle school refs could have done a better job. I mean at least do your fucking job with some integrity and basketaball IQ. Both players fouling Paul and the refs just missed the call when all night they had been giving Paul quick calls. What a crock...

THIS STATEMENT here is the truth,

Any fucking referee in any form of basketball would know that we were trying to foul. This is complete shit from the NBA and it's refs. We at least deserved a chance with the ball back down 3 instead of 4.

[Ice009]

if that happens go cav's

Yep I'd go Cavs all the way. Mike Brown and Lebron are classy people. Lebron still gives respect to people even if he does get a little arrogant at times.

[Ice009]

Pop took the high road about the refs.

Pop is a fucking idiot. NOW IS THE TIME TO MAKE A STATEMENT.

What is this shit? Mike Brown would have probably even said something and you can bet your ass Phil Jackson would have too.

Way to fucking go Pop you leave you players hanging out there all game with your crap rotations and then you don't even stick up for them after the game.

That is not what a good coach does. Even if you felt that the players are the ones to blame you should still stick up for them.

[Ice009]

:nope

You are a jackass

That's why Manu doesn't make friends in the NBA. He is here to win. Honestly I don't know why TP would be friends with Paul with the way he acts against us every time we play them.

You think Michael Jordan would take this shit?

[TampaDude]

Yep I'd go Cavs all the way. Mike Brown and Lebron are classy people. Lebron still gives respect to people even if he does get a little arrogant at times.

+1 LeBron is my favorite non-Spur in the NBA. :toast

Well to be honest I misunderstood you. I thought you were calling TP a bitch. I see what you are saying. CP is a bitch and why TP likes him? Who knows, he must have a great personality off the court.

[Spursmania]

Pop took the high road about the refs.

Don't know why he does that. It's not as if the Refs ever appreciate the Spurs. They give Jackson calls all the time and he's always the first to complain about calls when he doesn't get them. Pop taking the higher ground thinking the refs will appreciate it next game:lol

[Pauleta14]

That's why Manu doesn't make friends in the NBA. He is here to win. Honestly I don't know why TP would be friends with Paul with the way he acts against us every time we play them.

Jordan was friend with Barkley! :lol

[arodz]

Jordan was friend with Barkley! :lol

Says who? Barkley? Jordan thought of Barkley as a joke.

[alchemist]

Don't know why he does that. It's not as if the Refs ever appreciate the Spurs. They give Jackson calls all the time and he's always the first to complain about calls when he doesn't get them. Pop taking the higher ground thinking the refs will appreciate it next game:lol
I'm pretty sure he'd like to keep those $25,000 bucks that he would lose talking to the wall (NBA won't do anything about the shitty refs)

[Pauleta14]

Says who? Barkley? Jordan thought of Barkley as a joke.

:lol

I know, I was just kidding!
But MJ was special, he was like a beast!!!
He even loved to humiliate his own teamates!!!:lol

[crc21209]

Even though the Spurs played like complete shit, especially from 3, that doesnt give the refs an excuse to completely BLOW the game at the end. The game is 48 minutes long, so even though the Spurs were down 87-80, they finally showed some fucking heart and guts and cut it to 87-86, only for the ref to GIVE CPgay 3 free throws. Are you fucking kidding me? The refs KNOW that the Spurs have to foul on purpose to stay in the game, but of course...let us give Paul 3 FT's to close the game for good instead of letting the Spurs try and force OT. Fuck you refs, fuck you NBA.

[Ice009]

Well to be honest I misunderstood you. I thought you were calling TP a bitch. I see what you are saying. CP is a bitch and why TP likes him? Who knows, he must have a great personality off the court.

Yeah that is what I was saying.

[Ice009]

Jordan was friend with Barkley! :lol

If Barkley acted the way Chris Paul does every time the Bulls played the Suns Jordan would have none of that and tell Barkley where to stick his friendship.

[jdev82]

the most rediculous thing ive ever seen. these refs are now on the list of people psychos should kill. im not condoning violence, but if any psychos are in this thread, they should definitly take note that these people would be less missed than anyone.

[Spuritguy]

I just want to say that once again the Spurs got robbed in last night's game by totally inept or downright cheatin referres. Tony had enought contact with CP to call a foul in the backcourt, and when Manu fouled CP, he was not in the act of shooting, just running down the court. The fact that you throw the ball towards the basket after a non-shooting foul is committed against you does not make it a shooting foul!
So my question is simple. When is Pop going to get some guts and publicly attack the horrible tactics of NBA refs against his team--or is he worried that the fine money might limit his ablility to expand his wine cellar? Which is more important, Pop? And finally when is the Spurs organization going to stand up and do something serious about these corrupt and pitiful referees---after all the calls have been so obviously bad that even the NBA office had to get involved in the last 2 years,so when are the Spurs brass going to go after somebody and do something about this problem?

[redzero]

If Paul really is a cheap flopper, then he would fit in perfectly with the Spurs. As much as most of you bitch about him, all of you put Paul on your team in a heartbeat.

1.) Tony Parker pulled on Chris Paul's jersey on that second to last play.
2.) Tony Parker barely grazed Paul when he was trying to foul him in the backcourt. I thought that Parker fouled Paul, too, until I saw the replay.
3.) Those last three free throws were justified.

The Spurs got the ball where they wanted it. The problem is that they took too many threes, and this is coming from a Hornets fan. It was like watching the Magic, except the fact that the threes were not going in.

[Nolazach]

give Paul 3 FT's to close the game for good instead of letting the Spurs try and force OT. Fuck you refs, fuck you NBA.

Per NBA rules::::


When a player is fouled while attempting a three-point shot, than that player is to take three (3) FOUL shots.

Now I now you all do not want to admit it, but it was clear to see that Paul was fouled while trying to shoot a three pointer, the call was good.

It is just so much more convenient to blame the refs rather than the team.

The Spurs players fucked up. I am on them. Don't you worry about that, but the refs fucked up too and I will be on them about that too.

Why should I let the refs off the hook?

[redzero]

How did the refs fuck up? Well, yeah, they did screw up. Tony Parker was clearly holding on to Paul's jersey before the play took place, so the Hornets should of had two free throws and possession.

[Bukefal]

+1 LeBron is my favorite non-Spur in the NBA. :toast

Yes he is, mine too. If they meet lakers in finals, fakers are getting their ass kicked, with lebron giving the hardest kick.

[LockBeard]

Like I've been saying for a while.

As soon as TD's run is over I am done with the NBA.

The product is shit. Simple as that.
