I'm not going to waste my time thinking of keys to the game..it's pointless vs. the Bucks..I have no idea what could happen, the Bucks have the secret..

[SpurNation]

From the Bucks page
http://www.nba.com/bucks/gameday/gameday_MILSAS_091123.html



Milwaukee has allowed just 104 second-chance points this year, averaging 9.5 per game, lowest in the NBA.

The Bucks have been playing solid perimeter defense in their last three games, holding opponents to 19.5 percent three-point shooting (8-41).

Six Bucks are currently averaging double-digit scoring numbers. They are: Brandon Jennings (25.3), Andrew Bogut (16.1), Michael Redd (13.0), Ersan Ilyasova (10.5), Luke Ridnour (10.2) and Hakim Warrick (10.1).

In the last four games, the Bucks bench has outscored the opponents subs 155-104, an average of 38.8 to 26.0. On the season, Milwaukee averages 36.0 bench points while allowing 29.0 (400-314). The Bucks have won the bench battle in eight of their first 11 contests.


Keys to the game I would suspect for Spurs to win. Another entertaining and exciting game to watch.

98 to 92 Spurs win.

[Spurs Brazil]

Skiles team always play good D. I hope Bogans and Hill can do a good job on Jennings so we can win a defense battle

[xtremesteven33]

This should be a very exciting game :tu

I know Parker is going to step up big time against Jennings...

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

looking at the starting lineup ...can't help but say that there is no way we not dominate this game

[TIMMYD!]

we will not dominate, I expect a loss for either team to be by 2 or 3 points.

[ElNono]

It's the bucks. We will manage to find a way to lose. :lol
It's ok though. We'll use GSW as a punching bag on wednesday.

[Flux451]

Can't wait for this tough matchup. It's great to be back to the small breaks in between games

[sonic21]

double digit win for the bucks.

Jennings with 62 pts

[BatManu]

They just need to lock down Jennings... Spurs 99-90

[urunobili]

105 - 99 Bucks :depressed

[skervy]

Is there going to be a vbookie?

[ElNono]

Come on... *somebody* pick the Spurs to win... :lol

[phyzik]

Richard Jefferson goes off on his old team and the Spurs win in a blowout.
















at least thats what I hoping for. :lol

[Dex]

This is the year the Spurs 'buck' the trend.

This is the year the Spurs 'buck' the trend.

facepalm

:lol

[austN Spur]

im looking forward to watching the kid Jennings play. hopefully the Spurs take care of business. Go Spurs Go

[xtremesteven33]

Hopefully RJ has a big game. Play some motivated basketball and lead the team to victory....

[emanueldavidginobili]

88-81 spurs win

[misterx91578]

spurs 95-91 GoSpursGo

[bigdog]

Bucks have owned the Spurs lately. Hopefully this time it's differeny with RJ and Bogans going against their old team.

Hill is really gonna have to step up and make things hard for Jennings, though. That kid can flat out ball.

[quentin_compson]

Jennings averaging over 25 as a rookie is just sick, even if it's "only" been for about ten games so far.

Their most dangerous players are both guards (assuming Redd will play) - so this should usually mean reduced playing time for Fin (well, and Mason Jr.). Let's see how Hill and Bogans will do against those guys - they will have their work cut out for them for sure.

[duncan228]

(assuming Redd will play)

Redd is playing.

Spurs about to see Redd

[quentin_compson]

Ah, thanks. Well, it seems he might not be getting heavy minutes at least.

Another thing: Let's hope RJ is as fired up going against his old team as Gooden was when we played the Mavs in Dallas (different situation, I know, but still).

[ffadicted]

Spurs by double digits, hill+bogans lock up jennings.

book it

[SamoanTD]

Redd is playing.

I still like our chances even with redd back lets go spurs :flag:

[Leftyventricle]

itll be cool to see kurt thomas and francisco elson.

[Dex]

Redd's a rhythm shooter who should be out of rhythm.

Then again, our extra wide rims will probably help him find his groove. I know they switch them at half time, but they keep putting them up for the wrong damn team. :lol

[bigdog]

Cisco will go off for 22,13,and 8 blocks.

All kidding aside, I actually like the Spurs chances if they can slow down Jennings.

[NRHector]

Let's go RJ kick some ass :flag:

[austN Spur]

Gametime...i know my lady is goin to get home and get on facebook bejeweled blitz and hog this laptop. Go Spurs Go.

lets get back to .500

[emanueldavidginobili]

[NRHector]

lets get back to .500don't let her in and lock the doors:lol

[Harry Callahan]

Spurs should be able to defend the smaller guys with Hill, Boogans, and (Hopefully) Parker can keep himself between Jennings and the hoop.

Hopefully Jefferson will do well against the old team.

[duncan228]

Starters: Bogans, Parker, McDyess, Duncan, Jefferson.

[Spurs Brazil]

Starters: Bogans, Parker, McDyess, Duncan, Jefferson.

Good, I think Pop found the starting 5

[quentin_compson]

About time the game starts. Grizzlies-Kings is as awful as it gets. :lol

[Bender]

the starting lineup I like. seems weird that 3 of our 5 starters are new acquisitions, at least for Pop...

[SamoanTD]

lets go boogeyman!!

[Spurs Brazil]

About time the game starts. Grizzlies-Kings is as awful as it gets. :lol

I'm also looking at that game. Pretty bad :lol

[SamoanTD]

the starting lineup I like. seems weird that 3 of our 5 starters are new acquisitions, at least for Pop...
well its not like there a bunch of nobodys

[HarlemHeat37]

I put 50$ on the Bucks LOL..157$ profit if they win, apparently the odds-makers don't know the game..

usually when I bet against the Spurs, they win..so hopefully the trend continues..the Raptors game w/o Tony and Tim was the last one..

[Chieflion]

It is the Bucks, so I am not expecting much. Not when Redd is playing. I can only hope that idiot takes the ball out of Jennings' hand so he would look useless. We will see.

[Bender]

well its not like there a bunch of nobodys
yeah I know. It's not weird to me, but I'm kind of surprised pop puts 3 "new" players as starters.

[bdictjames]

K, Spurs, let's test your defense.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs feed!

[SamoanTD]

yeah I know. It's not weird to me, but I'm kind of surprised pop puts 3 "new" players as starters.
oh I got you yea pretty rare but if they can do this :ihit to the other team I think pop can be nice lol

[silverblackfan]

After missing the Wizards game, I am hoping this one is another good game for the Spurs. Go get em guys, and show that Defense that has been building lately!

[bdictjames]

nice aggressive play by Bogans

[SamoanTD]

timeout spurs 11 bucks 11

[austN Spur]

[quentin_compson]

Nice chemistry between Timmy and RJ.

[emanueldavidginobili]

come on tony finish

[Spurs Brazil]

RJ and TD working well

[Ice009]

TD gets no respect

How could they call that. Such a cheap foul.

Jennings and the Bucks look good so far.

[silverblackfan]

Good timeout. The Bucks are scoring pretty easily.

[Chieflion]

I hope this timeout makes the team go on a run here.

[Spurs Brazil]

Good job RJ

[WildcardManu]

RJ misses free throws, he must be a Spur.

[SamoanTD]

here comes KT

[biziofromdowntown]

We've only one good perimetr difender on the floor, and Bucks have 2 good shooter...but we can't keep out TP for GH

[silverblackfan]

Just keep the turnovers down. That would be key.

[EP Money Man]

Any chance Jack McClinton comes back form overseas next year and plays like Jennings?

[SamoanTD]

spurs 14 bucks 11

[ffadicted]

Looking good so far guys, I'm digging the aggressive play

[silverblackfan]

Dice is doing a good job on the boards

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

so many bricks from bogans lol

[DPG21920]

TP and McDyess look very active. Much more energy than they had to start the season.

[TIMMYD!]

Tim working hard to win me my bet.

[WildcardManu]

Duncan looking spry

[DPG21920]

Bonner the bench master!

[austN Spur]

RJ misses free throws, he must be a Spur.
:lol

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

swiiishhh

[SamoanTD]

bonner with the 3!!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner 3333333333333333333333

[quentin_compson]

Bonner!

[ffadicted]

BONNER!!!! Showing huge range!

[silverblackfan]

Bonner! You magnificent Bastard!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Nice 3 by Bonner

[Chieflion]

Sooner or later, Hill and Parker will have to play together because Jennings and Ridnour are going to play together.

[austN Spur]

nice pass by tim. rj will hopefully hit the next one

[rAm]

Anyone with the sopcast link?

[biziofromdowntown]

great assist from GH to Bonner

[silverblackfan]

Here's where the new bench should make a difference with these damn Bucks.

[ffadicted]

lol Bonner with the heat check

Settle down red rocket

[silverblackfan]

Bucks are in the penalty with 3 mins left. Nice.

[austN Spur]

timmy D on his way to the over 30vbookie

[Spurs Brazil]

TD looks better game after game

[Kongfu]

SO much 3 ball

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Bonner off the bench is great. Thank fuck Pop has stopped starting him.

[biziofromdowntown]

Bucks in foul trouble is great

[Pauleta14]

Duncan looks REALY greate, I love it!

That's the ONLY reason I'm optimistic about this year!!

[Chieflion]

Here comes Michael Redd.

[BlackBellamy]

Spurs looking solid. Think a lot of "fans" will end up looking pretty silly by the end of the reg. season from giving their apocalyptic predictions based on the slow start.

[ffadicted]

Timmy making my Vbookie bet look smart :hat

[TIMMYD!]

Wow, Redd is rusty.

[silverblackfan]

Nice pestering defense by Mason!

[ffadicted]

George taking one from TP's playbook, nice

[Chieflion]

Redd is clearly not himself yet.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

RMJ for 222222222

[duncan228]

TD looks better game after game

He does. :)

[Death In June]

Is that finely, bonner, and mason in the game together?

[silverblackfan]

I swear, GHill shows a new shot every game.

[quentin_compson]

I like what Hill is doing so far. Nice set up passes to Bonner and Duncan.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Nice to see Blair isn't completely in the doghouse.

Loving the Spurs D so far

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

:lol wow Redd

[Chieflion]

Um, Pop, what kind of lineup is this? No defense.

[ffadicted]

wow, digusting shot from Redd, he's looking shitty

[BlackBellamy]

Redd looks absolutely confused out there.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Blair with a bad shot :(

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 23-18 after one

[austN Spur]

boo hill. you tweeted my girl saying you tried to make a 3 for her. what was that

[Chieflion]

Not bad of a start so far.

[TIMMYD!]

This better not be like the Thunder game.

[silverblackfan]

Defense is getting better. Bonner with a rebound and RMJ is playing D and handling the ball. What the hell?

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

its kinda weird that bucks sit jennings for almost 6 mins in that 1st Q

[Spurs Brazil]

I don't like the last 2 minutes lineup

RJ, TD or TP should be on the court.

[the crimson blur]

How the hell did the Spurs defense suddenly get so good? Its been looking better and better game by game...

We look like an elite defensive squad all of a sudden.

[Chieflion]

I don't like the last 2 minutes lineup

RJ, TD or TP should be on the court.
Usually, if Ginobili is healthy, he would have been in the game in those minutes. Luckily, nothing went too wrong with that lineup against the Bucks.

[biziofromdowntown]

Bonner shows pretty good D, and GH makes good work on a rusty Redd

[BlackBellamy]

Good sign for the Spurs after one. The Bucks have offered me some of the more infuriating moments of being a Spurs fan. That Bogut dunk off the inbounds at the end of regulation maybe last year or the year before? I don't have words for the feeling. And it was only a reg. season game.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

GH3 nice layup

[austN Spur]

OH finley with the swat

[ffadicted]

Grizzly out there thinking it's football hahaha

[biziofromdowntown]

Yeaaaaaah D Rob is here

[WildcardManu]

Hope Hill is a Spur a very long time.

[silverblackfan]

Wow, Hill is learning from Tony. That fast break was very familiar.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

i really hate why player yells out " and one"

[Spurs Brazil]

Well, Finley is moving his feet trying to play D on Reed

Good to see

[Chieflion]

Redd came back too early. He was way off.

[ffadicted]

lol @ Redd

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner is on fire!

[Brazil]

I'm loving Hill tonite, he runs the offense well, makes some TPesque move, assists... nice

[silverblackfan]

"Redd is looking very rusty right now."

[Spurs Brazil]

Great block Hill!

[ffadicted]

George hill what a disgusting block OMG

Too bad boner ruined it, but it's ok, cuz he's red hot

[Chieflion]

Alright, a 12 point lead.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

wow that was not a easy three by bonner he had to pick it up from the floor and shoot it in one motion

[silverblackfan]

Hill with a nice block.

[TIMMYD!]

Redd came back too early. He was way off.

Good news for us.:lobt:

[biziofromdowntown]

what a BLOCK!!!!!!!!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

oh snap bonner lol

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner again! Holy Shit!

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner 3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

[WildcardManu]

the red rocket shooting lights out

[ffadicted]

Bonneeeeeeeeerr

dayum sons

[Chieflion]

Jennings is an incredible playmaker.

[DesignatedT]

Fn bonner. Hits a 3 then gives up a 3 pt play. Story of his fn life. This guy just cant play defense. Terrible

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Bonner another 3, he is having a strong 1st half.

[austN Spur]

red rocket on fire. whats that 3 now

[EP Money Man]

"Blast-off for the Red Rocket!"

[silverblackfan]

Bonner is killing them!

[Chieflion]

22 bench points for the Spurs.

[biziofromdowntown]

Maaaaaaaatt Bonneeeeeeer 33333333333

[silverblackfan]

Mason is starting to stack up the assists again. Could he actually play point?

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

bonner is all smile right now :)

[td4mvp21]

I really like Bonner in this role. He seems to be doing quite well lately.

[Spurs Brazil]

The 2nd unit playing very well

And I need to give Mason credit today, playing decent D and very well on O, passing and shooting

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Mason is starting to stack up the assists again. Could he actually play point?

honestly i have always says that mason is a better PG than hill at this stage he finds people better than georgie

[td4mvp21]

Mason is starting to stack up the assists again. Could he actually play point?

NO :lol

[urunobili]

our bench is shitting on the Bucks... I hope we end up winning...

[Spurs Brazil]

Blair playing good, he just need to learn how to avoid some dumb fouls

[angelbelow]

Let game so far

[Chieflion]

Fueled by Hill, Bonner and Mason, the bench is killing the Bucks. Unbelieveable.

[Admidave50]

Spurs offense is clicking!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Mason is starting to stack up the assists again. Could he actually play point?


Is this a joke? :(

[the crimson blur]

Fn bonner. Hits a 3 then gives up a 3 pt play. Story of his fn life. This guy just cant play defense. Terrible

Matt is playing magnificent stfu.

The hate on him is stupid. He is a great role player. I'm very happy we have him.

[angelbelow]

Mason is starting to stack up the assists again. Could he actually play point?

NOoOOoOOOoooooooOOOOOOOOoOooooOoOoo

[silverblackfan]

honestly i have always says that mason is a better PG than hill at this stage he finds people better than georgie

Lets not go crazy. Hill seems a lot better than Mason at this point, but I do think Mason is improving before our eyes.
Would that be ironic if Pop knew what he was doing?

[ffadicted]

Nobody's played more then 10 minutes yet, and spurs up big.

Gotta love it

[Death In June]

Mason is starting to stack up the assists again. Could he actually play point?Nah, if you have a sample size large enough you're bound to have a result the other way. Mason at PG is and always will be a terrible idea.

[Brazil]

why the hell bonner waits so long to figure out he can rebound ????

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol bonner on warick :lmao

[angelbelow]

lol matt..

[ffadicted]

Jesus christ bonner....... Blair with the ofensive board and quick pas, bonner fucks it up... poooop

[Chieflion]

Warrick....
I thought Skiles put him in the doghouse.

[austN Spur]

and here come the bucks

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

yes can i see that play where bonner missed the 0 ft layup????

[angelbelow]

nice to see blair early and play well.

[Spurs Brazil]

:lol Bonner

[silverblackfan]

Pop is saying to keep a tab on Delfino

[Chieflion]

Pop is taking control. Taking a timeout to break the Bucks' momentum.

[NRHector]

Damn, Bonner sure knows how to spoil a wet dream:depressed

[TIMMYD!]

Beast has 5 rebounds in 7 minutes.

[biziofromdowntown]

bonner surprise me again.....wtf

[EP Money Man]

Damn, Bonner sure knows how to spoil a wet dream:depressed

Usually boners are a part of wet dreams :downspin:

[Rito3d30]

the red rocket should have dunked it...:depressed

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Michael Finley... WOW

[NRHector]

Usually boners are a part of wet dreams :downspin::lol

[vander]

Fn bonner. Hits a 3 then gives up a 3 pt play. Story of his fn life. This guy just cant play defense. Terrible

Bonner usually plays very very good Defense, very fundamentally sound and usually forces his man to have to take the toughest shot.
He's not David Robinson or Dwight Howard, he doesn't have sick leaping skills and lateral movement, but you'd be hard pressed to find a guy in the league who plays closer to his ceiling than Bonner on the defensive side of the ball.

[silverblackfan]

Bucks in the bonus waaay early.

[quentin_compson]

Bucks in the bonus with over 6 minues to go. :downspin:

[angelbelow]

Hill really has a nice shot from that corner

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill 33333333333333333333

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

george loves that corner

[Chieflion]

I don't know what people expect of Bonner. He stayed in the league for so long because of his hard work. He was a fucking mid second round pick. He is overachieving at this point.

[ffadicted]

"I like this lineup"
"So do I!"

As do I fellas! haha

[EP Money Man]

Sean on Hill, TP, RJ, Dice, TD: "This is your starting line up right here."

[angelbelow]

Beast has 5 rebounds in 7 minutes.

Yea really nice to see the string of not playing in the 1st half hasnt affected blairs confidence.

[Brazil]

TP and Hill are playing well together

[angelbelow]

RJ and his FTs... yikes. i wonder whats bothering him.

[td4mvp21]

What the fuck is up with Jefferson's free throws?

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

i will hack a RJ if i need to :bang

[vander]

someone hack into Stern's PC, you'll find a memo to the refs saying to always try to get Bonner in foul trouble as quickly as possible.

[biziofromdowntown]

great D on Jenning by Hill

[silverblackfan]

Seems like the refs decided to even up the fouls

[quentin_compson]

TD to RJ: "It's alright to miss your free throws. This is the Spurs way." :lol

[Chieflion]

Dirk Ilyasova. Damn did I just say that? Even their shooting form is similar.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol that jump jump shit is annoying

[silverblackfan]

Jump ball with George! You know who was going to get that!

[angelbelow]

there we go rj

[Chieflion]

Urgh. Fuck Delfino. Two threes from the corner.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

jennings heating up

[austN Spur]

damm the kid got tim there. he is tony quick

[angelbelow]

loooks like his foot on the line.
