10/28- Spurs vs. Hornets Game blog

[Riverwalkman]

Blair in for Timmy!!!!!

[Creation88]

fuck i forgot about the acting in basketball. booooo.

[td_tp_manu]

a lot of substitutions in the 1st qtr

[Chieflion]

Roger, you don't push a guy from the back.

[Chomag]

Good D bt Blair on west!!!

[mexicanjunior]

Dice will knock down 18fters better than any other big out there, he'll rebound hard, and he is a great post defender. This guy is a perfect Spur.

:D

Which is why starting Bonner ahead of him is so idiotic. The defense got immediately better when Bonner and Finley got yanked the fuck out of there. Pop must have wanted the team to play with a deficit, it's the only explanation...

[Chieflion]

Blair. Same thing for you. Don't gamble for steals.

[vander]

how long has Manu been in the game? is he still healthy?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Nervous foul. That's okay. He's allowed to be nervous.

[spursrocksocks]

ginobliiiiiii

[TIMMYD!]

Ginobili is Back.

[EmptyMan]

Manu hill blair will dominate everyones second unit!

[Chieflion]

[Chomag]

Blair!!!!!!!!!1

[spursrocksocks]

fucking beast

[Chieflion]

We love Blair. We love Blair.

[kbrury]

Blair best bigman out of the draft with Griffin on the sideline.

[PGDynasty24]

damn these two teams have really bad offenses. I cant wait to see the spurs try to match the lakers firepower

[biziofromdowntown]

The BEAST

[ThePop]

ahhh blair

[ooshmay]

MANUUUU having an awesome start !!! :D:D:D

[BRHornet45]

pathetic way to end the 1st

[bbarry]

i nearly teared up when manu did that sweet drive to the hoop. that's the vintage manu that we need.

:)

[Chomag]

Manu hill blair will dominate everyones second unit!

I totally agree!

[Creation88]

that was awesome by Grizzly Blair

[Spurs Brazil]

BLAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spurs up 6 after one

[td_tp_manu]

blairrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrr

[superjames1992]

Impressive first quarter, especially on defense.

[kbrury]

damn these two teams have really bad offenses. I cant wait to see the spurs try to match the lakers firepower

Clippers almost matched it.

[Das Texan]

Amazing.

We take those fucks Bonner and Finley out of the game and the team goes on a hell of a run.


Shocking.

[My Fault]

Blair with the very spin move

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Which is why starting Bonner ahead of him is so idiotic. The defense got immediately better when Bonner and Finley got yanked the fuck out of there. Pop must have wanted the team to play with a deficit, it's the only explanation...

Preaching to the converted, brother. I'd have started Dice and Mo Money. :tu

[lennyalderette]

any streaming link?
where are you trying to watch it from?

[Creation88]

33% from the field 1-8 from 3. that's not gonna cut it.

[Spurs Brazil]

Great 1st quarter by Manuuuuuuuuu

[biziofromdowntown]

i LUV our youth

[ceperez]

Manu and Blair are completely unpredictable.

[NickiRasgo]

1 rebound for him, 19 more. :lol

[Hooks]

Anyone else think Mason looks a lot quicker/faster?


Damn, West tried to back into Blair earlier and Blair didn't even budge lol.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We are going to see a lot more of that from The Beast. :)

I really hope he gets 20mins a game at least.

[Spursfan092120]

damn these two teams have really bad offenses. I cant wait to see the spurs try to match the lakers firepower
it's called defense, douchey.

[Quiet Strength]

Amazing.

We take those fucks Bonner and Finley out of the game and the team goes on a hell of a run.


Shocking.

lol seriously

[robot89]

Manu is not going anywhere!!! Spur 4life!!!!:flag:

[Chomag]

Please! Please, Pop leave Blair in there to start the second quarter!

[kbrury]

33% from the field 1-8 from 3. that's not gonna cut it.

....what game is it again?

[symple19]

Defense looks on point

[spurspokesman]

Blair!!!!!!!!!1
Feels good to see somebody play with savage mentality in the block. Go blair

[seth210]

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

blair wanted armstrongs arm so badly

[lennyalderette]

the bear looks nervous out there! not nervous to play but he looks a bit overwhelmed w/all the cameras and stuff. i bet it feels really cool getting into the nba and playing on espn your first night

[Brazil]

Blair 1 min 2 pts 2 reb... what else ?

[timtonymanu]

damn that first quarter excited me.

[lennyalderette]

Anyone else think Mason looks a lot quicker/faster?


Damn, West tried to back into Blair earlier and Blair didn't even budge lol.
definitly

[quentin_compson]

Blair with a stupid foul, but then with a nice offensive rebound and the basket.

Nervous begin on both sides. Spurs got better as the game went on, though.

[Riverwalkman]

Let's believe Blair is a Beast in whatever levels of games.

[Spurs Brazil]

Audio still shit in ILP

DAMN

[NickiRasgo]

Blair 1 min 2 pts 2 reb... what else ?

Then 20 minutes for him is 40 pts and 40 rebs. :lol Just kidding, but who knows it might happen.

[Chomag]

Bonner should just be Blairs ball boy. lol

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Roll the Mcdyess :D

[bbarry]

dice making J's look easy.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Great to see Manu looking sharp. Fuck, I love Manu... I'll admit it, it's a man-crush. :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Antonio J!!!!!!!!!!!

[TIMMYD!]

Our defense lookin' good.

[EmptyMan]

Guys, we are deep.

[Danny.Zhu]

[kbrury]

What Blair makes a mistake and Pop doesn't pull him out???? lol

[King K]

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

[EmptyMan]

The man is emerging.

[mVp]

George Hill!

[Texas_Ranger]

[Chieflion]

Hill scores on a driving layup.

[kbrury]

Havoc Hill

[TIMMYD!]

George lookin' good. Hornets Timeout, WE WILL DOMINATE.

[spursrocksocks]

hill tearing it up like its a virgin pussy

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chomag]

LOL, our second unit is making our starters look bad

[bigdog]

Georgie!

[BRHornet45]

lol sons nothing new ... we completely FALL APART in the 2nd quarter. god our bench has to be one of the worst in the history of the NBA.

[bbarry]

too fucking deep.

[Doe]

Damn way to use those long arms Hill

[biziofromdowntown]

WTF Hill is great!

[BillMc]

Damn we are deep! What a bench!!!!!!

[jag]

LOL, our second unit is making our starters look bad

2/5 of our starters belong on the third unit.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Blair playing solid D on Armstrong, and Hill looks like a veteran.

BTW, we have the deepest bench in the league. ;)

[Danny.Zhu]

Our bench rocks.

[td_tp_manu]

hillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll l

[quentin_compson]

Dice is just deadly with his midrange shot. And Blair, well, enough said.

[spurspokesman]

Blair playing solid D on Armstrong, and Hill looks like a veteran.

BTW, we have the deepest bench in the league. ;)
I'm luvin it. Only if we can give bonners height to blair. Lol

[EmptyMan]

All the pieces have fallen into place this season.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Money Money Mase.

Dolla Dolla bills y'all.

damn thats catchy

[BRHornet45]

sons don't get too excited about your second team ... ours just flat out sucks.

[alfahdlan]

our second unit is so damn good. :flag:

[Chomag]

Our starters should just rest sit out and let the bench play the rest of the game. They need the rest for the back-to- back anyway.. J/k =P

[bbarry]

Hornets 17 consecutive missed FG since Manu entered the game :D

[kbrury]

Im sorry bonner you need to be the 5th big lol

[spurs1990]

Hill
Jefferson
Mason
Blair
McDyess

Gotta say my favorite lineup.

[biziofromdowntown]

I'd Hill n Blair in my Fantasy Team... YEEEAH

[Brazil]

Second unit > starters

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Audio still shit in ILP

DAMN

Just be glad the stream works - last year it'd buffer so much you wanted to smash your computer. :pctoss

And anyway - I'm starting to get it... it's like Minority Report, we're hearing the future 5 secs before it happens! :lol

[007nites]

Blair with 4 rebounds in 4 minutes. Also, Timmy had 7 boards in the 1st quarter alone.

[Danny.Zhu]

Spur
starter: 8 pts
bench: 18 pts

[BillMc]

I would like to thank Mr. Holt, R.C. and Pop for adding depth to this team. It seems like the Dallas playoff series where Tim and Tony went it alone, sent a message!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

manu + hill + blair + dice + RJ = holy shit...
my first post lol :P

[iilluzioN]

sons don't get too excited about your second team ... ours just flat out sucks.


lol, son plz, Tony Parker is taking it easy, if he really wanted to... he would dominate this game

[Chomag]

Bonner back in =( With so much talent on our bench why is bonner even near the court?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

sons don't get too excited about your second team ... ours just flat out sucks.

No, ours is very strong. When they get the starters right, we're talking these guys off the bench:

Manu
Hill
Blair
Bonner/Finley
Ratliff

I'll take that against any team.

[EmptyMan]

RC, god bless you.

[Spurs Brazil]

Nice play, RJ to the line

[Riverwalkman]

Our defense is back!!!!!!! That's the best thing

[Chieflion]

Richard Jefferson is missing free throws. He will be a Spur for life.

[td_tp_manu]

why is cp3 still on the bench?

[BRHornet45]

jesus christ

[EmptyMan]

Blair is actually holding his own on defense. Those long ass arms.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

LMAO Blair.

[mVp]

I love Blair.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

I have a man crush on Blair :D

[Death In June]

I'm loving the second unit, but why is mase at the point again?

[Chomag]

Finely Comming back in.... Bonner and Fin on the court at the same time again. I guess we just want to give Hornets achance.

[TIMMYD!]

Blair!!

[Chieflion]

Blair is just too good.

[spursrocksocks]

I would have blairs kid if i could

[Spurs Brazil]

Blair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kbrury]

Roger nice 3 earlier but I recommend not fighting for a rebound with Blair lol.

[ThePop]

blaaiiirrrr

[TIMMYD!]

hill tearing it up like its a virgin pussy

HAHA holy shit.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Blairrrrr

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Mason looks MUCH more mobile than last year, much quicker. :tu

BEASTLY!!! :D

[alfahdlan]

Ba-bye NOH, see you next time

[EmptyMan]

Hill is all over the place on D.

[EmptyMan]

Guys WTF, blair is a rookie???????????

[Brazil]

bonner in no is scoring

[mVp]

Blair again lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Blair from RJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

DAMN Blair again... nice movement

[spursrocksocks]

beast is going to get the stadium named after him

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Blair 6/6 in 6.... :) :lmao

[Chomag]

Bonner and finely just stood out at the 3 point line and didnt even move on that offensive play.

[Xylus]

Dear God. The Spurs look disgustingly good.

[Chieflion]

Blair, you do not gamble with your hands.

[BRHornet45]

Lmao!!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

6 points, 6 boards, 3 fouls on Blair. :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

3rd on Blair, shit

[timtonymanu]

Woulda been nice if RJ alley-ooped it but i like it.

[TIMMYD!]

The Beast fouling too much.

[Brazil]

Guys WTF, blair is a rookie???????????

you smoke ? he is a perenial all star

[kbrury]

The Beast fouling too much.

First game his production already makes up for it.

[td_tp_manu]

ahhh the beast is still too young..

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner 33333333333333333333333333333333

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Why Pop? Bonner, Finley, and Duncan on the court. Why have three of your five slowest guys on the court at the same time? :wtf

[Riverwalkman]

Tony and RJ are in offense drought, but we are still kicking their ass.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Height is over-rated in basketball. It's all about playing smart, and playing to your strengths.

Um, welcome back, Spurs. :)

[bbarry]

Chris FLOPaul

Damn you refs you can't give him a foul on that flop.

[BillMc]

How funny. My favorite player (TD) and the best player in Spurs history just entered the game for Blair and I found myself strangely disappointed....

More Blair!!! (Of course 3 fouls will do it.)

[Chieflion]

Shit. Our lead is going to evaporate with both Finley and Bonner in. No one wants to see them on the court together.

[bigdog]

Yes! Yes! Yes!

[Brazil]

actually nothing changed bonner and finley starting and mason running the point

[Spurs Brazil]

We're looking fucking great

[NASpurs]

I've gone through tissue and lotion like it's going out of style.

[ThePop]

:clap wow spurs owning

[Crookshanks]

The ESPN guys are impressed with the Spurs - is that good or bad? :lol

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Tp9 :D

[spurspokesman]

:clap wow spurs owning

This is spurs basketball. I'm rejuvenated. Parker and duncan under 10 pts and we up 16. Were good

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

the beast is taking up two seats on the bench lol hill has no where to sit haha

[Brazil]

Tp it was about time

[vander]

Height is over-rated in basketball. It's all about playing smart, and playing to your strengths.

Um, welcome back, Spurs. :)

weren't the Lakers collectively the tallest team in basketball last year? or second tallest? thought I heard that somewhere, Orlando was pretty tall too

[Chieflion]

Did the ESPN guy say Pop is upset at Finley for missing defensive assignments? That is something new.

[Chomag]

MAn, I don't think our FO even knows how great of a player they got with Blair.

[biziofromdowntown]

LOL @ Pop yelling Findog

[quentin_compson]

Pop yelling at Finley?? :wow

[EmptyMan]

That 2nd unit actually gave me energy to study after this game tonight. wtf

[TIMMYD!]

I've gone through tissue and lotion like it's going out of style.
:lol That's awesome.

[NASpurs]

Only three people have scored for the Hornets. Daaamn!

[Brazil]

Paul with 0 assist !!!

[ElNono]

Not surprisingly, Bonner makes a shot when we're up 18...

[Chieflion]

Paul with 0 assist !!!
He can't get any. With West and Okafor becoming iso players.

[Riverwalkman]

ESPN guys = shit, always impressed afterwards. How about the power ranking now?

[EmptyMan]

lol the raps are raping lesweep.

[Death In June]

I don't want to prematurely blow my load here, but I think the only thing that holds back this team is pop and/or their health. Hopefully pop gets his head out of his ass. He has quite a few more games to do it, but he didn't learn all last year, so I don't know.

[Crookshanks]

I listened to the whole 1st quarter on the way home from work and I was a little concerned at first. But I guess they just needed to knock the rust off and get rid of the jitters - cuz now they're rollin!

[Chieflion]

They should take Finley out and play Hairston.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

weren't the Lakers collectively the tallest team in basketball last year? or second tallest? thought I heard that somewhere, Orlando was pretty tall too

Correlation, not causation.

I'm not saying height isn't useful, but I am saying that who cares how tall Blair is? He has a massive wingsapn, and that blocky body with its low centre of gravity gives him an advantage defending the post if he uses it correctly. I play against guys like that all the time, and they are a bitch.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Im really happy right now

[Ice009]

Did the ESPN guy say Pop is upset at Finley for missing defensive assignments? That is something new.

FUCK YES! That is great when I saw that. Looks like the old Pop is back. The shaving of the beard perhaps?

[Danny.Zhu]

NO is just another first rounder loser like us, please hold your compliments until some wins over Lakers and Celtics.

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner just heaved it up.:lol

[TIMMYD!]

Findog. 3

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley 33333333333333333333333

[BRHornet45]

well Julian showed up

[Chieflion]

We need Julian Wright, man. Would Finley+2nd rounder do?

[BillMc]

The rich got richer. Boston, Orlando (look what they're doing to Philly), Lakers and us all improved. What a year this will be.

Too bad for the Lebrons they saddled themselves with fatboy Shaq!

[Ice009]

Manu going to the rack already.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Between being a turnstyle on defense and bricking shot after shot on offense, Bonehead is single handedly bringing New Orleans back in this one.

[NickiRasgo]

No assist for CP3.

[spurs1990]

Yeah Finley sucks.

NOT!!

[TIMMYD!]

Awesome Ball Movement. Fin 3.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Finleyyy!!!!

[Chieflion]

Finley with his 2nd three pointer.

[biziofromdowntown]

Findogggggggg

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley 333333333333333333333

Great ball movement

[Chomag]

Manu!!!!!!

[EmptyMan]

MANU iS BACK BITCHES

[TIMMYD!]

Ginobili 3
We are fucking scary.

[Chieflion]

Spurs too freaking good for the Hornets.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu tres!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Brazil]

Bogans?

[duncan228]

God it's nice to see Manu.

[biziofromdowntown]

Manu on fire

[TIMMYD!]

Can someone stop Paul?

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner 3.

[Ice009]

Chris Paul killing TP. LIGHTING HIM UP.

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner 33333333333333333333333

[seth210]

bonner even scoring for the hornets

[EmptyMan]

bonner just tipped the basket into the opponents hoop

[biziofromdowntown]

Bonner another 3 oh my gosh

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Bonner again

[kbrury]

Bonner gtfo! jk nice 3

[Xylus]

It's the CP3 Show.

[Spurs Brazil]

TD 10rebs already

[Chieflion]

bonner just tipped the basket into the opponents hoop
Great. First game for the Spurs and this one should go into the top 10 bloopers.

[biziofromdowntown]

It's the CP3 Show.

it's SPURS show

[spurspokesman]

Bonner again

Ssshhhoootttoouuttt

[Ice009]

Maybe get G Hill in on CP3????

[quentin_compson]

Too many threes right now.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

BRH - gotta be happy with JuJu. He looks comfortable out there like he never has before.

Timmy's hands, and his feel for the court, are incredible... it's easy to forget just how good he is, then you see him play again and oila!, GOAT! :D

[lennyalderette]

wow guys we look really really good!!!!!!!!

[MB20]

CP3 vs The San Antonio Spurs

[Ice009]

I think the threes are OK. I think this Spurs team is good enough to know if the threes stop dropping they will start taking it inside.

[BillMc]

I can't see the game. How is Tim moving on that brace?

[weebo]

Where's all the Bonner hate now?

[EmptyMan]

wtf pop
