SL Game Blog: Spurs vs. Thunder @ 7:30 CST

[xellos88330]

Nice move by Ian, he needs to not be so hesitant.

[dbestpro]

You can really build up your post count by begging for links.

[YODA]

Cant we use the same link someone purchased?

[ChumpDumper]

Timvp, will you please do a recap of Pops interview like you did with Lindsay and Bufords?

:worthy:Doubtful. EDIT: Oh, they just turned him up.

[oligarchy]

Timvp, will you please do a recap of Pops interview like you did with Lindsay and Bufords?

:worthy:

He'll need someone with very good hearing..

[monkeypunk]

The NBA feed is only $10 now, fyi

[urunobili]

:lol timvp must have turned up the volume big time to see if he can write down what Pop is saying for a Notes thread tomorrow :lol

[Dex]

Yeah, this is stupid. You literally cannot hear a word Pop is saying during a one-on-one interview. It's not just annoying, it's outright pathetic.

Fuck you NBA. If you're gonna charge for a product, learn to run a sound board.

[kbrury]

Cant we use the same link someone purchased?
would you do the honors? :lol

[LonestarLegend]

Ian needs to learn some touch on those jump balls...he damn near took georges arm off lol

[ChumpDumper]

Folks need to chill.

[oligarchy]

26-15 okc

[DBMethos]

Great sweeping hook by Ian.

[oligarchy]

Ian looks great on the move.

[Da Spurs]

Pop can't believe this guy is this stupid.

[xellos88330]

Nice hands Hill and Blair.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

_______FYI this game will be on NBATV tomorrow, Friday, at 11 AM CT.

[Dex]

Pop audible finally. I guess they found teh button.

[Da Spurs]

Pop says he likes what he sees. Blair, Hill, Ian, Hairston specifically.

[jrmp317]

_______FYI this game will be on NBATV tomorrow, Friday, at 11 AM CT.

awesome :downspin:

[xellos88330]

Pop audible finally. I guess they found teh button.

I think Pop decided to stop fucking with the noob commentator.

[DBMethos]

Malik!!!

[xellos88330]

Nasty slam by Hairston. Great pass Hill!!!

[Dex]

Hairston just put someone on his poster. :elephant

[bigdog]

_______FYI this game will be on NBATV tomorrow, Friday, at 11 AM CT.

:lol what a fail.

I don't have that, either. Time Warner gives me pretty much every damn ESPN channel but no NBA tv :depressed

[spursbird]

Blair with only 1 rebs? wtf

[oligarchy]

Damn. Hairston with the explosion.

[LonestarLegend]

malik just got filthy on Ibaka!!!

[ChumpDumper]

_______FYI this game will be on NBATV tomorrow, Friday, at 11 AM CT.Hopefully the illegal streams will work then.

[oligarchy]

Blair with a nice up and under

[Da Spurs]

Blair is incredible. He will play lots of minutes.

[DBMethos]

Beck just got his shit packed!

[xellos88330]

Mullens was just owned by Blair. Moved him about 4 feet with three bangs.

[Old School 44]

Commentator sounds a little like Regis..."Pop is that your final answer!"

[oligarchy]

Beck got his stuff rejected.

[Caeman]

Fuck it, I'm paying..


Man, don't cave it. Fuck the NBA, its a racket. Don't forget the reason why you didn't sign up in the first place.

[loveforthegame]

Hairston has to be on the roster this year. There's no excuse for him not to be.

[Spurs Brazil]

david b. thorpe Hairston has had a good week. And just had a poster dunk.
david b. thorpe Mahinmi always intrigues me.

http://myespn.go.com/blogs/truehoop/0-42-87/David-Thorpe-Tweeting-From-Summer-League.html

[DBMethos]

Marcus was a #2 pick for us? LMAO

[dbestpro]

Why are we not rebounding?

[oligarchy]

"They just don't feel entitled."

I love that quote..

[ChumpDumper]

Man, don't cave it. Fuck the NBA, its a racket. Don't forget the reason why you didn't sign up in the first place.Because he could see it for free.

Now he can't.

[xellos88330]

there is a rebound for you dbestpro

[oligarchy]

Blair cleaning some glass

[DBMethos]

Blair another o-reb and putback!!!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Fuck it I just bought SL

[Da Spurs]

What a putback by Blair!

[Dex]

Marcus was a #2 pick for us? LMAO

22nd.

[urunobili]

Blair 1 rebound? wtf is going on there?

[xellos88330]

Ibaka: "I CANT MOVE HIM!!!"

[Interrohater]

Man, don't cave it. Fuck the NBA, its a racket. Don't forget the reason why you didn't sign up in the first place.
then get off the boards...

[xellos88330]

Mahinmi throwdown!

[ffadicted]

Looks like Blair's rebounding first game was just a fluke, this guy's a bust, might as well trade him

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Nice dunk by Ian

[vanishing_dude]

any links?just logged in..

[Da Spurs]

Why are we not rebounding?

Because the shooting percentage is so high for both teams.

[Dex]

Spurs making a nice run to get back into things here in the 2nd.

[DBMethos]

22nd.

He said Marcus Vinicius. :lol

[angelbelow]

sweeet.

[ace3g]

Spurs making a nice run to get back into things here in the 2nd.

the Spurs have been a 2nd half team this entire summer league

[LonestarLegend]

very high quality broadcast tonight...timely replays decent camera work...totally worth the money

[Caeman]

then get off the boards...


Leave the boards? just because the sport I love and the team I cheer for participates in a rigged ass league? are you kidding me?

[Dex]

He said Marcus Vinicius. :lol

Yeah, the other guy is just making stuff up now. :lol

[Da Spurs]

Ian is so dang weak. Grab the ball and dunk it!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Blair 14pts 2rebs

[DBMethos]

White boy blocked by the rim!!!

[oligarchy]

HAHAHA. BJ rejected by the rim.

[Dex]

Nice scoop by Hill. Spurs up 32-31.

[xellos88330]

Mullens rejected by the rim. And Hairston back on the other end with a 2.

[oligarchy]

Beck gave up the fast break. sweet.

[angelbelow]

[SPURSGOAT]

Man, don't cave it. Fuck the NBA, its a racket. Don't forget the reason why you didn't sign up in the first place.

it is only $10 now... and I really want to see the new recruits in action...:downspin:

[Da Spurs]

Pop was in France with Tony and just got back for the last 3 games.

[xellos88330]

Mahinmi and Blair seem to be working really well together.

[vanishing_dude]

none so far

thanks..

[Ditty]

hairston got the jump shot down automic but a horrible passer

hill passing has gotten hella better and can score at the basket

[SonOfAGun]

lol @ NBA lowering the price.

[Spurs Brazil]

david b. thorpe Blair has tractor beam hands. Or they are magnets to leather.

[galvatron3000]

Who is gatsweet on justintv?

[Da Spurs]

lol @ NBA lowering the price.

Of course they're halfway through the deal dufus.

[mystargtr34]

James Gist in?

[yavozerb]

david b. thorpe Blair has tractor beam hands. Or they are magnets to leather.

[Caeman]

lol @ NBA lowering the price.

Finally, a quote I can respect. :toast

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Gist....... :(

[ChumpDumper]

Finally, a quote I can respect. :toastany links yet?

[xellos88330]

Hairston's jumper still looking sweet.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Hairston 222222222222222222 :D

[oligarchy]

Hairston with a nice J.

[bigdog]

Fuck it I'm gonna buy the damn thing. I just hope I get a damn job REALLY soon because I'll only have 8 bucks left in my bank account.

[HarlemHeat37]

missed rotation by Gist..

[Da Spurs]

If we don't have Ian and Blair in the game, we suck underneath.

[Interrohater]

Fuck it I'm gonna buy the damn thing. I just hope I get a damn job REALLY soon because I'll only have 8 bucks left in my bank account.
dude, maybe you should save that 10 for, i dunno, food... or sumthin..

[Caeman]

any links yet?


Nothing yet, and as bad as I want to see the spurs, I am not caving into paying for scrimmage games. Screw Stern and his bogus league, ruining the sport of basketball.

[Spursmania]

it is only $10 now... and I really want to see the new recruits in action...:downspin:

I've already paid for it since Tuesday. NBA.com--Damn thing won't launch for me.

[ChumpDumper]

Nothing yet, and as bad as I want to see the spurs, I am not caving into paying for scrimmage games. Screw Stern and his bogus league, ruining the sport of basketball.Why do you follow a bogus league?

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

GH3 can score whenever he wants :D

[bigdog]

dude, maybe you should save that 10 for, i dunno, food... or sumthin..

Well, I have some extra cash in my wallet. I just didn't wanna spend whatever is in my bank account. I'll be fine for now.

[angelbelow]

angelbelow: refresh the feed

Thanks, so far so good.

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill 8pts 5asts

[yavozerb]

Do the feeds usually take a while or should they be running by now?

[Spurs_9_20_21]

can someone pm me the link please?

[ChumpDumper]

I've already paid for it since Tuesday. NBA.com--Damn thing won't launch for me.Did you get the login screen? Sometimes you have to scroll up to find it when you select a game to watch. Seems different for different browsers.

[DBMethos]

Pop's like fuck this shit, I'm outta here. I came to watch my boys play, not sit here and respond to this fucking moron's verbal diarrhea.

[bigdog]

Nevermind I'm not buying it. :lol

[oligarchy]

Halftime.

[yavozerb]

I wouldn't mind watching,but damn, its only a summer league game people...

[Dex]

Nice to get a good interview outta Pop. That was like a midsummer edition of the Pop show.

I didn't take notes well enough to recap, but I bet a breakdown will show up at some point.

[LonestarLegend]

good 2nd quarter for the offense...d seemed to pick up noticeably when hill and malik came back in...

[oligarchy]

Gist just look like he doesn't belong. Misses rotations, is out place, and gets pushed around

[Caeman]

Why do you follow a bogus league?


Because i love the sport and Love the spurs. I love seeing Tim Duncan and Robinson (et all) playing the sport of basketball. I love the way they play the sport.

But, If you can't see how this league is bogus then we simply have a different perspective, on Stern and how he has been running the league,and won't rreach any agreement on the subject.

[bigdog]

What did you guys like about the 1st half?

What didn't you like?

[angelbelow]

Wow, my feed is so fucking inconsistent. I've refreshed it a few times now. Anyone else having this problem?

[Hooks]

No streams on justin tv?

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Gist just look like he doesn't belong. Misses rotations, is out place, and gets pushed around



^^^^^ This

[Dex]

Yeah, you can tell it's Offseason. We're getting all riled up over D-Leaguers.

Well, and Hill and the Grizzly Blair.

[kbrury]

Id like to give props to these refs who don't call 1.5 fouls a min.

[loveforthegame]

Sounds like Blair, Hill, Ian, and Hairston continue to impress.

Disappointing showing for McClinton and Gist again. That's a shame.

[angelbelow]

Why do you follow a bogus league?

lmao, he actually responded to you asking for a link.

[LonestarLegend]

the league is hurting...attendance is down and 15 for unlimited summer league access with replays of games available at any time really isn't a big cost.

[SPURSGOAT]

Nevermind I'm not buying it. :lol

lol! good choice... since you don't have a job and not much funds... food and bills are more important... :lol

[ChumpDumper]

Because i love the sport and Love the spurs. I love seeing Tim Duncan and Robinson (et all) playing the sport of basketball. I love the way they play the sport.

But, If you can't see how this league is bogus then we simply have a different perspective, on Stern and how he has been running the league,and won't rreach any agreement on the subject.He has made it bogus by making money for everyone?

That's awful.

[yavozerb]

I just need the feed for the halftime show, forget the basketball..:lol

[SteelerSpurs]

Hey, just noticed Marcus Dove is on Thunders summer league roster, seems alot of people thought he had alot of potential awile back as defensive long 3

[Old School 44]

Pop and the interviewer, indirectly bashing domestic recruits, by giving general props to international recruits....great fundamentals, no entitlement.

[Interrohater]

Haha, I just set my DVR to record the game on NBA tv in the morn. Get off of work and watch a nice feed on my couch

[Dex]

Wow, my feed is so fucking inconsistent. I've refreshed it a few times now. Anyone else having this problem?

That's weird, my feed has been pretty good all night.

Try a different browser, maybe?

Maybe close some applications if a lot are running to free up memory? Sometimes the old restart will fix anything.

[ChumpDumper]

the league is hurting...attendance is down and 15 for unlimited summer league access with replays of games available at any time really isn't a big cost.How about $10?

Considering I usually schlep out to Vegas, this is really cheap.

[FireDavidStern]

I like how Mahinmi has 1 foul

[TheProfessor]

Hey, just noticed Marcus Dove is on Thunders summer league roster, seems alot of people thought he had alot of potential awile back as defensive long 3
And that's why we're not scouts for professional basketball organizations :lol

[spursbird]

Blair and Ian combined for 4 rebs? How can it happen?

[LonestarLegend]

all i remember about marcus dove is that idiotic bird motion he made after every one of his dunks his last yr at OK St

[kbrury]

I like how Mahinmi has 1 foul
helps when refs don't call 1.5 fouls a min.

[oligarchy]

Wow, my feed is so fucking inconsistent. I've refreshed it a few times now. Anyone else having this problem?

I did the first day, but I just turned off signatures and avatars here.

[GOSPURS733]

can someone pm me the link?how many points does ian hill and blair have?

[FireDavidStern]

Blair and Ian combined for 4 rebs? How can it happen?

Hairston grabbed 3 rebs

[LonestarLegend]

for 10 dollars its a downright steal...

[Dex]

How about $10?

Considering I usually schlep out to Vegas, this is really cheap.

Seriously, 10 bucks is like....a meal these days. Skip lunch tomorrow or something...

[timvp]

Hill has had his moments. I'm not sure where the statkeeper came up with five turnovers.

Blair showing some nice offensive game. He really is just a beast.

Hairston playing well. Couple of good passes and a damn impressive dunk.

Mahinmi still looking good.

Not much to complain about.

[SPURSGOAT]

Sounds like Blair, Hill, Ian, and Hairston continue to impress.

Disappointing showing for McClinton and Gist again. That's a shame.

LOL! McClinton's twitter always says "lets work" ... yet he is not doing anything out there...:lol

[biziofromdowntown]

Gist fail

[LonestarLegend]

skip enough meals and you can look like Ibaka lol

[ChumpDumper]

Awww. Poor million/billionaires.

It's the principle. I give $200 to this greedy Jew every year for league pass, and you mean to tell me I can't watch summer league for free? Come the fuck on.You can if you have the links.

Any links yet?

[xellos88330]

The rebounds have been predominantly long rebounds from what I have seen. When there is a rebound available at least.

[GOSPURS733]

how many points does hill ian and blair have?

[Ace9]

Please a link.. FOR THE NBA STATTRACKER... haha. Anyone got that? Thanks.

[SonOfAGun]

You can if you have the links.

Any links yet?

lol chump.

It's summer league. No one will lose sleep over not catching a SL game. I would be pissed in the morning knowing I gave $10 to NBA/EA Sports for SL.

We should quit littering this thread with link requests though.

[angelbelow]

Yea, i turned off everything, hopefully its better. Thanks for the advice

[Dex]

Hey, something's happening!

[HarlemHeat37]

Like I said before, the $ wasn't an issue at all..I didn't want to pay for something I could get for free though..now that the last 2 games have been unreliable(the 1st game I didn't get a link until mid-way through the 1st, and now this), so I'd rather just pay the 10$..I'm also going to miss the 4th because I'm going to get an MRI, and I'll be missing the game Saturday..

[urunobili]

I prefer to pay 10 bucks for an annual subscription @ Spurstalk... :wakeup

[SpursFan0728]

Awww. Poor million/billionaires.

It's the principle. I give $200 to this greedy Jew every year for league pass, and you mean to tell me I can't watch summer league for free? Come the fuck on.

my thoughts exactly.

collecting $$ off die heart fans for summer league is stealing.

[LonestarLegend]

who is this talking?

[ChumpDumper]

No. Worst case scenario I watch it in the morning in high-def, though.I'm not sure it will be in high def.

[Dex]

Was that Mahinmi with the block? :wow

[xellos88330]

Nice block by Mahimni

[HarlemHeat37]

wooo Ian, blocked the shit out of dude..

Hairston fouled with no call..

[FireDavidStern]

Are they talking to someone from Minnesota?

[DBMethos]

Beck blows.

[Dex]

Pft. Hairston with a beautiful run out, with his signature behind the back :rolleyes, then Beck blows the layup.

[LonestarLegend]

romel beck needs to quit playing...just quit

[HarlemHeat37]

Beck fucks up Hairston's nice pass..he fucked up a 2 on 1 with Hairston earlier too..step it up Beck..

[SteelerSpurs]

can anyone watching give insight to Blair's low rebounding #, is it out of position or other players beating him to them??

[DBMethos]

Blair's FT stroke actually looks pretty good. How in the hell is he a ~60% shooter?

[HarlemHeat37]

Woooo, Malik just destroyed dude..

[Bulwark]

Nice block by Hairston

[urunobili]

for y'all getting cocky about having paid already the 10 bucks... go get yourself a League Pass... suckers...

[xellos88330]

Nice block by hairston!

[LonestarLegend]

on a side note, if I was a thunder fan I would be very impressed by the fact that Kevin Durant made the trip out to support his teammates

[Caeman]

Awww. Poor million/billionaires.

It's the principle. I give $200 to this greedy Jew every year for league pass, and you mean to tell me I can't watch summer league for free? Come the fuck on.


my thoughts exactly.

:toast

[ChumpDumper]

Well, regardless, it will be in my living room... instead of on the computer.I have a computer hooked up to my tv in the living room.

I like the way Blair uses the basket to protect his shots inside.

[xellos88330]

on a side note, if I was a thunder fan I would be very impressed by the fact that Kevin Durant made the trip out to support his teammates

agree!

[oligarchy]

Blair did something.. shit.. hobbling.

[HarlemHeat37]

Hill with another nice finish..

[SPURSGOAT]

Send Gist back overseas... and McClinton to the D-League...

[xellos88330]

Mahinmi has a very quick first step, even when his back is to the basket.

[Interrohater]

I'm gonna pay the 80 bucks to get a slingbox and have my brother hook it up in San antonio. I'm tired of league pass, they stream spurs announcers like once a month and the quality is crappy analog

[loveforthegame]

Blair did something.. shit.. hobbling.

Serious? Keep us updated please.

[HarlemHeat37]

I don't think Blair was hobbling..he was grimacing, probably because the offensive player scored over him over a tough contest..he looks like he's moving fine..

nice move from Ian..

[Dex]

Mahinmi with the nice drop step, barely misses the And-1. Hits both, 50-48 Spurs.

[HarlemHeat37]

Yup, Blair is moving fine..looks like he was just upset by the guy scoring over him..

[HarlemHeat37]

Ian active on the boards..

[FireDavidStern]

The Spurs and Thunder are playing so of course they are talking to a Minnesota guy about a Milwaukee guy. wait, what

[SPURSGOAT]

I have a computer hooked up to my tv in the living room.

same... pc hooked up to my 42 inch HD LCD. :toast

[DBMethos]

Blair is fine.

[Dex]

Yeah, Blair grimaced there for a sec, but I think he was just trying to keep from Hulking out.

[xellos88330]

Mahinmi tried to tip the rebound to Blair. Loving the way the two seem to be working together.

[ChumpDumper]

Damn, you really go all out. $200 for a HTPC. Balling!I saved money by not going to Vegas.

Ian is looking nice and quick -- getting his timing back.

[oligarchy]

He looks fine.. just scared me for a moment.. don't feel like trying to rewind it..

[xellos88330]

Yeah, Blair grimaced there for a sec, but I think he was just trying to keep from Hulking out.

:rollin

[HarlemHeat37]

I have to agree..Ian and Blair look very good together..good sign..

[LonestarLegend]

Yeah, Blair grimaced there for a sec, but I think he was just trying to keep from Hulking out.

:lol

[Dex]

Interesting to think we could be seeing most of our second unit on the floor. I could easily see Blair, Hairston, and Mahinmi making the team as backups, and Hill is a given.

[oligarchy]

Hairston looking automatic.

[HarlemHeat37]

Hairston's foot is always on the line..

[xellos88330]

Hairston... christ man!! When did you learn how to be a shooter?

[Sisk]

"malik harrison"

who is this commentator?...

[LonestarLegend]

I've been very impressed by Hairston's ability to step up and make shots

[SpursFan0728]

for those watching right now...how is hill doing? I see he has 6TO already on boxscore!

[SonOfAGun]

Yeah, Blair grimaced there for a sec, but I think he was just trying to keep from Hulking out.

lmao, exactly

[Bulwark]

Ouch Blair didn't block out

[xellos88330]

Hairston's foot is always on the line..

He shooting Vinny's

[Dex]

Hairston trying too much right there.

Mahinmi with the nice board on the other side.

[HarlemHeat37]

Hairston isn't getting any calls..

Blair fucks up on the rebound and missed the chip shot..finally showing signs of being human..sucks for Taylor, he actually made a good pass for once..

[Manufan909]

What quarter is it?

[LonestarLegend]

Blair was so shocked that taylor actually got him the ball tthat he blew the lay up lol

[SteelerSpurs]

:rollin:ihit
:lol

[ChumpDumper]

Hairston's foot is always on the line..


He shooting Vinny'sMore like Willies.

[rayray2k8]

Gist has barely played.. Jack 0-3? No. Boy needs to become more aggressive.

[Bulwark]

What quarter is it?
3rd

[Spursmania]

LMAO...NBA.com finally works for me.

[oligarchy]

simple system?

[HarlemHeat37]

Gist with a bad look..

[mystargtr34]

Ian is 3-3. I think he should get some more touches to show off his post/face up game.

[LonestarLegend]

Gist looks like an 8th grader against Varsity

[FireDavidStern]

i haven't seen the last 6 plays. crapping video feed keeps freezing up

[Dex]

Damn, Darth Vaden sticks the three.

[HarlemHeat37]

McClinton misses a completely wide open mid-range J..

[xellos88330]

McClinton is rushing his shot.

[biziofromdowntown]

Gist with a bad look..

Gist made his time

[Da Spurs]

McClinton is the George Hill of last year. Nothing is falling.

[oligarchy]

McClinton is just a straight shooter.

[SteelerSpurs]

so how many more games left after this one for summer league

[HarlemHeat37]

We play horribly when the bench comes on..it's been the case every game now..

[ElNono]

Who's that tard commenting? Open heart surgery... WGAF????

[Da Spurs]

2 more games

[ChumpDumper]

McClinton could well get the Marcus Williams rookie treatment this season.

[SPURSGOAT]

so how many more games left after this one for summer league

2

http://www.nba.com/summerleague2009/games/boxscore.jsp?gameId=1520900034


Thanks guys.

[xellos88330]

Bad call.

[oligarchy]

Hill does a good job of disrupting passing lanes.

[FireDavidStern]

BS call on Hill

[HarlemHeat37]

Weaver with a huge flop, and he obviously gets the call since it's SL..

[SteelerSpurs]

Ibaka with 7 offensive rebounds, is he out hustling our bigs???
