Game Blog: 12/19 - Spurs vs. Pacers

[hoopdreams11]

Why is Pop leaving Tony in the game?

[Duncan2177]

This spurs team is pathetic. I can't believe what's happening.

[Brazil]

OMG 34 18 in the third

[Spurs Brazil]

TP -9 leading the Spurs

[Libri]

Now Hill looks hurt. :bang

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

we have no play maker on the floor NONE

[carina_gino20]

Oi...everyone's getting hurt. Who is this team?

[alchemist]

Spurs, will you stop leaving guys wide open for three point shots.
:toast

[Johnny RIngo]

FOrd KILLING TP

PATHETIC

Every PG has embarrassed TP this season.

[Spurs1234]

this team just doesnt look like it cares...sad

[024]

this team is soft.

[siraulo23]

Easy win here. Spurs 110 Pacers 87


Spurs 107 - Pacers 92


The biggest things I want to see tonight are good defensive rotations and at least an attempt at taking care of the ball. Do those things and we should win handily.


I expect a big game from Tony tonight

Disappointing game :bang

[Brazil]

Why is Pop leaving Tony in the game?

teach a lesson ? abandon this game ? just to mess with the fans ?

[itzsoweezee]

please take tony out.

[Ice009]

TP us pure shit this season.

He needs to go. What the fuck is wrong with reporters in SA?

Tell him straight up you look like shit. Are you hurt or tired, but you look like shit. Someone step up and tell him that. I want to see what he says.

[the crimson blur]

Tony Parker is our worst rotation player.

*sigh* and now his backup might be injured. Fuck me.

[Brazil]

and the pacers are playing w/o their best player

[bdictjames]

Eva needs to bitchslap Tony. This is nonsense.

[cnyc3]

2 for 2 FTs!!!

[Chieflion]

T.J Ford again....

[nbaman99]

wtf i this? this is not spurs at all. hell no. pathetic team other than timmy. Keith playing better than jefferson.

[TD 21]

Parker looks absolute atrocious. Terrible decision making, can't make a jump shot and his trademark finishing at the rim is greatly diminished.

This team loves embarrassing themselves apparently. Playing one of the least talented, least athletic teams in the league (2nd night of a back-to-back for this team, no less), who's missing their best and only star caliber player, the Spurs are at home and they're having serious trouble against this team.

The retarded coach is playing insane combination's again.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

This is fucking pathetic. Long jumpshots and no D. Ugh.

[Chieflion]

LOL Spurs NBA team....

[Chomag]

So now the Spurs are deciding to struggle against the scrub teams? Oh boy...

[bdictjames]

What the fuck! Pacers are hitting everything.

[Brazil]

pacers+13

[itzsoweezee]

38 points in the 3rd quarter! that's embarrassing.

[bdictjames]

Indiana 83 Spurs 70

I think we can win this game.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

no ball movement no D just great

[siraulo23]

back to back, no granger, **** me

[Spurs Brazil]

This is pathetic, and all start with the terrible play of TP.

And he got mad the Spurs called him back in the summer after the injury...

Now it shows why. Played injured for his NT team and now is fucking the Spurs

[Chieflion]

What the fuck! Pacers are hitting everything.
It is easy to do that if you are a pro left wide open on every shot. Sooner or later, you are gonna find your groove and shoot the lights out.

[Ice009]

I have had enough of this team.

I am more ready and more pumped up to play this game that these fucking players are.

How can you not bring any energy? How can you play so soft? How can you fucking not give a shit out there and not be aggressive???????????????

[ducks]

tp is responsible for the spurs giving up 38 points in the third?


ford scored tp was on the bench

[Brazil]

I'm done with this game, I cannot watch this team anymore

[dbestpro]

Who would have thought that TP would be washed up before Manu and TD.

[urunobili]

the effort is pathetic.. i can't watch this shit

[ducks]

tp got 10 free throws tonight he has attacked more tonight then some

[bdictjames]

Go Spurs Go

[alchemist]

tp is responsible for the spurs giving up 38 points in the third?


ford scored tp was on the bench
:lol it's more fun blaming Parker for leaving 5 players open.

[TD 21]

Blame Jefferson all you want. The real blame lay's at the feet of this retarded coach who won't let him play. Fuck the 3 fouls; Jefferson should have played all but roughly 2 minutes in this half. He played 8 in the first half...all he needed was a quick blow to catch his breathe in this half. Parker and Ginobili giving this team shit production for considering they're the 2nd and 3rd best players in the league.

[Tito_Trinidad]

Spurs are not in the Playoff race anymore. Rude awakening, Spurs are over 'till God sends another first round miracle like Duncan.

[Chieflion]

Pop has to pulla Mario Elie and call this team out on being soft after this game with the reporters. Sorry Pop, you are gonna be stuck with 699 wins for a while until the team wakes up.

[Spurs Brazil]

tp is responsible for the spurs giving up 38 points in the third?


ford scored tp was on the bench

WATCH the damn game

FOrd killed TP on 4th straight possessions

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol @ someone still trying to save TP's ass

[Danny.Zhu]

I can't watch it anymore.

[The Red Hood]

Give the ball to RJ and get out of the fucking way.

[fiona_yin]

this is so pathetic

[Johnny RIngo]

wtf i this? this is not spurs at all. hell no. pathetic team other than timmy. Keith playing better than jefferson.

Jefferson is a non-factor most of the time. NJ were fucking retarded for giving him that bloated contract and the Bucks and Spurs were even stupider for trading for the piece of trash.

[bdictjames]

ducks, face it, TP is pathetic

he missed half of the 10 FT attempts

[murpjf88]

I feel sorry for those pathetic spurs fans who are going to say "its still early. We had a bad game." Fuck you. This team is going nowhere.

[Brazil]

tp is responsible for the spurs giving up 38 points in the third?


ford scored tp was on the bench

tp is surely not responsible for everything that goes wrong with this team, manu 4 tos in 16 mn, RJ who is this guy ? dice ? etc.. but he is our worst rotation player tonite hands down

[wijayas]

Who would have thought that TP would be washed up before Manu and TD.

National team commitment, remember?

[dbestpro]

tp is responsible for the spurs giving up 38 points in the third?


ford scored tp was on the bench

TP set the tone. In the very beginning of the game TP was not going to give the ball up and kept clanging away. His selfish play brought the whole team down and don't even start on his defense.

[Chieflion]

RJ hits 2 of 2.

[bdictjames]

We can still win this.

[Chieflion]

I would trade Tony Parker + ducks (bad contract) for Jerryd Bayless and Martell Webster.

[bdictjames]

RJ scores 4 straight to bring us to single digits

[Chieflion]

Refs call that a foul. Wow, fuck me.

[bdictjames]

Ginobili!

[Chieflion]

Hibbert even has a jump shot....

[ducks]

hill grow up

[dbestpro]

Refs will always call the game in favor of the more aggressive team.

[bdictjames]

Cmon guys, hurry up get the lead down before Parker comes back. :lol

just kidding

[slick'81]

i just turned the cowboy game to the spurs what the fck is going on over here

[bdictjames]

down to 8.. Hibbert with 4.

[Chieflion]

i just turned the cowboy game to the spurs what the fck is going on over here
Get double digit lead before half time, finds a way to fuck up and lose the lead. -Story of the season

[murpjf88]

laugh it up bogans

[ducks]

manu shots a three falling away grow up

[Spurs Brazil]

Pacers up 8

Put TD in for Mason and finish the game with this team

[itzsoweezee]

mcdyess and parker are not working out. limit their minutes until they get their shit together.

[Manudona]

manu shots a three falling away grow up

Ducks making stupid comments about Manu, grow up

[Duncan2177]

WAKE THE FUCK UP SPURS :bang

[dbestpro]

I never thought that I would say that we might be better off with Mason at the point than Parker. His game has fallen off that much. What ever the reason injury, mental illness, Eva locked the bedroom, Pop needs to shut him down for a week or two.

[Chomag]

Call me a cliff jumper or not. This team still can turn things around but something has got to change. Things can't just be expected they have to be worked to get.

[Libri]

The free throw shooting is improving. It's now at 55%.

:lol:depressed

[Cherry]

manu shots a three falling away grow up

[anonoftheinternets]

this is a gut check game .. they better pull it out ..

[TD 21]

This team can't get a stop to save their lives and even though that's the only way they can get back in this game (by getting stops) Pop is playing a severely undersized lineup. I'm beyond baffled.

If Ratliff wasn't signed for a situation like this (to come in and cool down a behemoth center who's giving the Spurs fits), then why the fuck was he signed? And why is Duncan out for over 7 minutes with the game in the balance? Fuck the 4 fouls, he's Tim Duncan. Trust that he's smart enough and will get enough respect from the refs to play this one out without fouling out.

[Johnny RIngo]

mcdyess and parker are not working out. limit their minutes until they get their shit together.

We'd probably be better off not playing TP at all.

[ducks]

Ducks making stupid comments about Manu, grow up

sean said you knew that shot would be short
you grow up

[Chieflion]

T.J Ford is now on fire.

[ducks]

ford over duncan

[bdictjames]

Timmy on both ends!

[Chieflion]

Fantastic dunk by RJ!

[anonoftheinternets]

:oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[siraulo23]

thats right RJ@!

[bdictjames]

It's not over yet.

[itzsoweezee]

LOL @ hansborough trying to guard jefferson

[anonoftheinternets]

Jeeeeeeeeefferson wiht teh slaaammm

[ducks]

rj

[Otaku]

R fkn' J !!

[Chieflion]

Hope that shit turns the team around! Richard Jefferson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cherry]

sean said you knew that shot would be short
you grow up

You grow up wtf :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

RJ, fuck yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dbestpro]

RJ got to play with TP off the floor. If TP was there RJ would never have gotten to touch the ball.

[the crimson blur]

Rj holy shit.

[anonoftheinternets]

POP pissed with tp .. i guess hes not coming back ..

[Kool Bob Love]

I NEED A GIF OF THAT DUNK BY RJ!!!

:flag:

[Johnny RIngo]

Can't believe I'm saying this but that was one hell of an impressive move from Jefferson.

[Brazil]

Cmon guys, hurry up get the lead down before Parker comes back. :lol

just kidding

unfortunately you're right. If I were Pop I'll let tp on the bench the whole 4th and I'll put hill starting pg for the next games and wait TP earns again his starting spot

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

RJ goes reverse about everytime he goes baseline hes gonna get punked eventually

[the crimson blur]

Plz plz Pop dont sub in TP. We will win if you don't.

[Libri]

Highlight dunk by RJ.

He has a few already this season.

[TD 21]

Time to run four-down every single time down the floor; especially with Hibbert out. No chance of the defenseless Murphy being able to slow down Duncan. Also, if Ginobili takes one more ill-advised, off-balance jumper, then he should be pulled for the rest of the night.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I would trade Tony Parker + ducks (bad contract) for Jerryd Bayless and Martell Webster.

Okay then. Glad you aren't the GM.

So, RJ can pull out shit like that but can't play with consistent effort? WTF? Very odd guy, RJ.

[Spurs Brazil]

Keep giving the ball to RJ one on one

Their bigs can't guard him

[siraulo23]

expect the spurs to make the game close

but wont be enough to win it (hopefully im wrong)

[Chomag]

POP pissed with tp .. i guess hes not coming back ..

I hope so. We definitely need a point guard that runs the offense

[024]

i don't think spurs win many games when they're behind in the fourth. they can only win through blowouts. going take a total team turnaround for this win to happen.

[Chieflion]

No. Pop, no, why is Tony back in? You senile retard.

[Duncan21kid]

how nasty was the slam ?

[duncan228]

Believe.

[Johnny RIngo]

RJ got to play with TP off the floor. If TP was there RJ would never have gotten to touch the ball.

TP's a black hole on offense and among the worst in the league on defense.

[Chieflion]

Okay then. Glad you aren't the GM.

So, RJ can pull out shit like that but can't play with consistent effort? WTF? Very odd guy, RJ.
I am glad you left your joke detector in the fridge today.

[siraulo23]

here comes tp~

[dbestpro]

TP back in the game. Its over.

[bdictjames]

LMAO TJ Ford scores after Parker comes in..

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Heat check by TJ... he should've driven it down Tim's throat.

[bdictjames]

Gah! Make one!

[Johnny RIngo]

Take Parker the fuck out.

[Spurs Brazil]

DAMN FTs

[Chieflion]

George, please make your FTs.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

son of a ..make the FTs

[Libri]

Hill is catching some fire.

[the crimson blur]

We're in the bonus?

Fuck.

[cnyc3]

GHill!!!!! 333333

[Chieflion]

Hill for 3!

[bdictjames]

Hill 333333333333333333333333333333333333

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

18/33 FTs. Only themselves to blame.

[bdictjames]

We're within 3 points.. let's do this Spurs

[siraulo23]

thats right, get to the ft line~

[bdictjames]

Good one, Timmy.

[Spurs Brazil]

Defense!!!

[Supergirl]

SPurs playing with some fire in the 4th, maybe this will be the one they DON'T blow because of a lousy 3rd quarter. And the start of a new trend, I hope

[bdictjames]

11 point lead possibly cut down to 1

This Spurs team has heart. Hopefully the home crowd will fire them up for a W

[024]

need stops...

[Ice009]

Get Parker off please.

[Spurs Brazil]

fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

1 on the clock

shit

[ducks]

rj should have shot that three he was wide open

[Chieflion]

Did Dahntay Jones show you the ball? RJ?

[Chieflion]

Good, that knock on the head better wake Tony up.

[Chomag]

umm he didnt even hit TP on the head lol

[bdictjames]

Tony, please make these FTs

[024]

get a stop please.

[The Red Hood]

Why the fuck are you taking that shot!

[Spurs Brazil]

TD bank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chieflion]

Tim Duncan bank shot. Spurs lead 96-95.

[Libri]

Tim always comes to play.

[bdictjames]

Timmy!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Comeback teams that take the lead win more often than not.

Nice fight by the team to come back from 13 down.

[siraulo23]

we take the lead back~

[Supergirl]

SPurs finally get the lead back with 3 min to go. Hold on boys, now let's close it out.

[Ice009]

Clutch play Tim.

I don't know why TP took that last shot when he is not on.

[024]

thank goodness duncan is on this team.

[Spurs Brazil]

Let's keep the tough D and win this game

[ducks]

Why the fuck are you taking that shot!

duncan set a great screen in the past that is money
he also just made two free throws

[urunobili]

duncan set a great screen in the past that used to be money

Fixed

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

i slapped my lap so hard when timmy makes the bank...ouch but its worth it

[TD 21]

Something needs to be done about these lethargic 3rd quarters. This has been going on since post All-Star break in '08. Maybe some combination of Ginobili, Hill or Blair should start to provide energy.

[Budkin]

Not watching this game but what the fuck?? We are having to come back at home against the fucking Pacers?? Agghh!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

duncan set a great screen in the past that is money
he also just made two free throws

when it is a MAKE

[Johnny RIngo]

Clutch play Tim.

I don't know why TP took that last shot when he is not on.

Indiana should make TP an honorary Pacer after his performance tonight.

[Spurs Brazil]

GREAT job Hill!

[the crimson blur]

duncan set a great screen in the past that is money
he also just made two free throws

Hes made like one of those jumpers this entire year. I agree he has to shoot that, but honestly, TP is the last guy I want with the ball right now.

[Rummpd]

Get this game Spurs!

[carina_gino20]

Tony! :)

[bbarry]

Tp to RJ

[Spurs Brazil]

Tony Parker is alive!!!!!!!!!!

[Chieflion]

Parker made up for it with the steal and the cut for the lay up.

[ducks]

tp

[Cherry]

TONY at last!

[bdictjames]

Thank you Tony!

[hoopdreams11]

why is tony still shooting

[urunobili]

Fuck you Tony

[024]

lol parker and his jumpers.

[Ice009]

What is tp doing???????

[Chomag]

wow, not one pass from TP on that last possesion?

[mystargtr34]

:lmao Tony goes from hero to villain in 20 seconds :lol

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Omggg

[cnyc3]

here we go

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs ball, down 1 with 10.2 to go

[BlackBellamy]

This board is so bipolar, it's hilarious!

[Chieflion]

Ok, Roger Mason, now is your time. Sub him in.

[Rummpd]

Duncan playing like a man possessed but he needs another big out there!

[itzsoweezee]

stop trying to play hero, tony. fuck. that jumpshot early in the clock was so stupid.

[Supergirl]

damn spurs, come on. don't blow this. one chance for a final shot to win this.

[Ice009]

Give the last shot to TP.

He's fucked up this game for us. May as well give him another so I can pin the entire loss on him.

[pawe]

dang Spurs lets get this win please!

[urunobili]

this game is fucking lost :td

[cnyc3]

I want RJ to take the last shot. no jumpers just take it to the basket

[ducks]

duncan missed 2 easy layups
and manu missed the three

[Johnny RIngo]

Please don't give the last shot to TP.

[Cherry]

:lmao Tony goes from hero to villain in 20 seconds :lol

and less :lol

Please Come on SPURS! :flag:

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

i have a feeling TP is gonna take that last shot

[mystargtr34]

Give the last shot to TP.

He's fucked up this game for us. May as well give him another so I can pin the entire loss on him.

:lol im thinking the same thing.

[siraulo23]

Can we win this game? cmon Spurs!!!

10.2 secs left

[dbestpro]

Wow Parker plays defesne for the first time in the game and good things happen then he turns around and chunks another jump shot with players open on the wing. I know who will not be able to hit thew winning shot, TP.

[Johnny RIngo]

duncan missed 2 easy layups
and manu missed the three

tp 4-17

[024]

set play to parker for the jumper!

[Ice009]

wow, not one pass from TP on that last possesion?

It's funny Richard Jefferson can find TP for an easy bucket at the 2 minute mark and then TP can't find RJ all game.

Also after Richard Jefferson found TP for an easy two Parkers starts jacking up jumpers like he's been hitting them all game.

What a retarded player.

[itzsoweezee]

give manu the ball and let him go to work

[urunobili]

TD fuckers

[024]

duncan will not be denied!

[Chieflion]

[siraulo23]

cmon one more stop and rebound the ball!

[itzsoweezee]

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Tim and Shaq are the two best rebounders of their own misses I've ever seen.

[Kool Bob Love]

Timmmmmmmmmmmmy!!!

:flag:

[mystargtr34]

Timaaaaahh!!!

[cnyc3]

Timmy, u forgot the chest pound!!!

[Chieflion]

Stop their shot and win the game.

[Spurs Brazil]

defense

[Chomag]

I'll say again. I love number 21!!!!

[Supergirl]

Spurs score a DUNK? That's a defensive breakdown for the Pacers

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

c'monnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!

[BlackBellamy]

Hibbert, 6 blocks :wow

[siraulo23]

[Ice009]

Get Parker off the floor. Are you crazy??

[siraulo23]

Spurs win!!!! whoo!

[Chieflion]

The Spurs win! Tim Duncan, the HERO!

[ducks]

[Supergirl]

[pawe]

Tim and Shaq are the two best rebounders of their own misses I've ever seen.

Blair says hello.

[carina_gino20]

Tim Duncan, I love you. :)

[024]

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

So, we finally won a close one. Maybe this team has some fight in them after all.

[dbestpro]

Get Parker off the floor. Are you crazy??

Obviously you have not been watching the game.

[Cherry]

My God.
this game was HORRIBLE
Thanks TD :)

[Spurs Brazil]

Big props to Hill and RJ to spark the comeback and TD to finish strong

[urunobili]

I'm 6-1 when opening the game blogs.. i'll keep doing it until the next loss...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Blair says hello.

Let him do it for a few more seasons and he can enter the conversation.

[Chomag]

So, we finally won a close one. Maybe this team has some fight in them after all.

It's Pacers. Sould not have come to that butttt........

Still good to get a win though.
