Game Blog: Spurs @ 76ers - Feb. 19

[TIMMYD!]

Dalembert is booted out and I'm missing Sean's homer-ism.

[Spurs Brazil]

Time-out

Spurs up 6

[TDomination]

I remember when Bowen used to irritate players to the point they get ejected, <sniff> i miss that :(

[Warlord23]

It's going to have to be Manu, Hill and the bench to pull this one out. TD and TP are out of sorts, and Pop has spotted the Sixers about 8-10 points with his Bonner/Bogans experiment

[TDomination]

Dalembert is booted out and I'm missing Sean's homer-ism.

Haha same here, Bill Land doesn't know whats going on out there lol

[lurker23]

With Dalembert ejected, this should be a true test for Pop: has he really reformed himself away from small ball, or was it a one-half anomaly?

[DesignatedT]

pop very happy to see dalembert out... now he can go with rmj at center

[bbarry]

great hustle by hill, and nice job by ginobili finishing the play. i loved it

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol dice got blocked by the rim

[SCdac]

I'm starting to think starting Ginobili is the answer, or at least start getting close to his 30.8 MPG playoff average as the season comes along. He's the heart to this team (imho). Hill is sort of undersized at the 2, and coming in off the bench for Parker would be ideal. With all the erratic things Pop has done (even brought Duncan off the bench!), why not try it, not like Manu hasn't started before.

[Libri]

Hill for 3

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill 33333333333333333333333

[superjames1992]

Good Lord, Tony Parker is having a bad game. 1-9 shooting and he brings no intangibles to the floor.

I was wondering why Pop pulled him early in the second half, but now I know why.

[Crookshanks]

Watching League Pass and having to listen to the Sixers announcers. Man are they homers - and they're really pissed about some of these calls, especially the two techs on Dalembert. Wish I could listen to the Spurs announcers.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

pop very happy to see dalembert out... now he can go with rmj at center

he will go small ball regardless:rolleyes

[quentin_compson]

Boy, this ain't a pretty game.

[raspsa]

Those Philly commentators sure know who pays their salaries..

[PublicOption]

tony parker - speed=no other skills

tim duncan + old=erik dampier

[quentin_compson]

Watching League Pass and having to listen to the Sixers announcers. Man are they homers - and they're really pissed about some of these calls, especially the two techs on Dalembert. Wish I could listen to the Spurs announcers.

Well, they had a point there, hadn't they? I don't blame them for their homerism, I blame them for being boring as hell.

[Spursmania]

Watching League Pass and having to listen to the Sixers announcers. Man are they homers - and they're really pissed about some of these calls, especially the two techs on Dalembert. Wish I could listen to the Spurs announcers.

Total homers. :toast

They act as if getting pissed off at calls is the way the players should be acting. Regardless of the calls, the players should just be playing ball and not whining.

[Warlord23]

Bogans in again? WTF?

[timtonymanu]

im not hating on timmy's defense, but i dont like when he just stands there and lets them go in.

[timtonymanu]

wow nice Manu 3333!

[TIMMYD!]

Manu with a prayer 333333333333333333

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu tres!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ginobili fan]

NO wAY MANU !!!!

[Johnny RIngo]

Good Lord, Tony Parker is having a bad game. 1-9 shooting and he brings no intangibles to the floor.

I was wondering why Pop pulled him early in the second half, but now I know why.

Maybe a few more crappy games from Parker will convince him to pull out from his NT commitment.

[superjames1992]

Wow!!!

[TJastal]

Manu is god.

[Warlord23]

With the shitty play and Pop's retarded lineups, it's gonna take a few miracle threes to get out of Philly with a win

[quentin_compson]

What business does Bogans have handling the ball in that situation? Manu bailed us out there.

[ginobili fan]

tony parker - speed=no other skills

tim duncan + old=erik dampier

:lmao

[Libri]

Manu jumper

[timtonymanu]

It's weird how Manu looks fresher than the Tim and Tony.

[Doe]

Loving Hill's aggression tonight

[Brazil]

phily is shooting 50%

[timtonymanu]

i knew that was gonna happen! cmon spurs.

[Spurs Brazil]

DAMN Hill, stupid

[TIMMYD!]

Blair is gonna get killed by Brand.

[angelbelow]

yikes

[Brazil]

nice play hill

PHI 30.0
Andre Iguodala made Free Throw (14 PTS)

SA 30.0
Shooting foul on George Hill

PHI 30.0
Andre Iguodala made Slam Dunk, Assist Lou Williams

SA 32.0
Lost ball turnover on George Hill, Stolen by Andre Iguodala

[TIMMYD!]

Spurs up 76-73 at the end of the 3rd.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

When it was elite, this team used to KILL other teams in the last 2 mins of quarters. Now, we set the table for them. :pctoss

[quentin_compson]

Boneheaded play by Manu this time. But he is having a very good game overall.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 76-73 after the 3rd

[Brazil]

it would be nice to see tp and tim having a good 4th Quarter

[timtonymanu]

crap end to the 3rd there.

[ginobili fan]

When it was elite, this team used to KILL other teams in the last 2 mins of quarters. Now, we set the table for them. :pctoss

I can't anymore remember that time.

[sandman]

Bonner, Bogans and Jefferson thru 3 quarters = 3-13 and 0-6 on 3's for a total of 8 points.

[TJastal]

Anyone watching the cavs/bobcats game?

T Thomas is dominating the cavaliers on defense LOL

[poop]

i bet bonner starts the 4th.

[ginobili fan]

Anyway are the Sixers a .500 team ?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Philly is running every chance they get on every play and beating McDyess, Duncan, and Blair down the court every time to get easy free throws.

Why not give Mahinmi at least three minutes?

[superjames1992]

Bonner, Bogans and Jefferson thru 3 quarters = 3-13 and 0-6 on 3's for a total of 8 points.
Throw Tony in there and it's 4-22 for 10 points.

[timtonymanu]

fuckin horrible.

[Bukefal]

it would be nice to see tp and tim having a good 4th quarter

+1

[Warlord23]

The lead is evaporating and fucking Pop is sticking with Bogans ... they don't even need to guard him at this point

[Spurs Brazil]

30 fast break pts for the 76ers

TERRILE D, why play Shit Bogans?

[timtonymanu]

if we lose this game, it's cause tim and tony are no-shows and Pop overplaying Bogans.

[timtonymanu]

Pop using small ball now. Fuck!

[Chomag]

Here comes small ball!!!

[TJastal]

RJ attacks the basket finally

[TIMMYD!]

Guess what, RJ drove and he scored.

[Bukefal]

I havent seen it. What's up with TP's hip? I thought I heard the commentator saying something about that.

Glad to see Manu doing good though.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We need athletes, and we need them now.

Time to stop this "contender" charade and realise that it's time to rebuild the team along the lines of the new NBA.

[Death In June]

More small ball, I see....

[Brazil]

Anyone watching the cavs/bobcats game?

T Thomas is dominating the cavaliers on defense LOL

yeah 8 reb 4 blks

[boutons_deux]

For a team that's supposed to have offense, Spurs shooting 40% vs 50%, and generally sucking.

[Warlord23]

Here comes the layup drill

[Spurs Brazil]

Williams is KILLING Parker, KILLING

[ginobili fan]

Tony is getting killed by Lou williams fantastic

[Chomag]

yeah 8 reb 4 blks

But we have bonner!

[murpjf88]

That better not be clear path foul.

[lurker23]

No small ball through 3 quarters, why does Pop start now? The offense isn't the problem.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Philly is number 2 in fastbreak points. And we don't use our quickest jumpiest bigman. If Ian didn't get any playing time tonight, I don't see him getting any unless there is an injury.

:pctoss

[timtonymanu]

Pop better be looking for athletes this summer instead of veterans. The NBA is an athlete's league now. You cant win with slow old veterans anymore.

[Spursmania]

Small ball baby.:pop:

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Small ball makes even funnier sense because we could use Ian out there with Blair instead of Jefferson.

:pctoss

[Crookshanks]

ugh these announcers just plain suck

[Spursmania]

Philly is number 2 in fastbreak points. And we don't use our quickest jumpiest bigman. If Ian didn't get any playing time tonight, I don't see him getting any unless there is an injury.

:pctoss

:pop:I'm not playing Ian.

[poop]

pop is a terrible coach.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

yeah 8 reb 4 blks

...and we could have had him for an expiring and a 2nd round pick, or even Theo who we got a pick for from them.

:pctoss

[Spurs Brazil]

Small ball and Blair is the big...

[Brazil]

But we have bonner!

and we are +3 against phily while the cats and ty are +16 against cleveland :depressed

[Death In June]

pop is a terrible coach..

[Refocus]

lmao at all the fastbreaks and were struggling to even get a shot.

[timtonymanu]

wow horrible at holding the ball.

[Chomag]

Fucking POP and his SMALL BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Warlord23]

Layup, layup, layup

[Spurs Brazil]

Fuck Pop, RJ, TP

[Crookshanks]

they're killing us on these fast breaks

[Crookshanks]

Fucking POP and his SMALL BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:bang We had a big lead, then Pop loses his mind and here we go again.

[Libri]

jefferson lol

[Brazil]

...and we could have had him for an expiring and a 2nd round pick, or even Theo who we got a pick for from them.

:pctoss

:depressed consolation for me he is in my fantasy team

[BanditHiro]

Lou Williams the new spurs killer

[ShoogarBear]

Good thing we have smallball in there to stop that outside shooting.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Tim is pissed off and has been for weeks now. I think he's seen the window close, and rightfully that makes him unhappy.

[Warlord23]

The pathetic part of our version of smallball is that we can't guard anyone on the perimeter even if we play 4 guards

[timtonymanu]

god it's either they hit a layup/dunk or they go to the line.

[Death In June]

Is it any wonder Duncan's production drops mideway through the season.. Must be exhausting playing with a 6'7 SF as your C/PF.

[Duncan2177]

Pop never learns does he. :bang

[Spurs Brazil]

Maybe our D hit a new low today. Layup, Layup, Miss Rotation, Layup

Just terrible

[ShoogarBear]

T Ratliff 15 min 5 reb 2 BS vs. Shaq and Cavs

[quentin_compson]

Boy, we look lost on offense right now. Give the ball to Tim, with Dalembert out and all.

[Crookshanks]

hmmmm - these announcers have a totally different attitude now that the refs are calling all the fouls on the Spurs.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

:depressed consolation for me he is in my fantasy team

I own him in DL II. ;)

Hey, is it you that's killing me this week? Where did that come from? :lol

[Brazil]

tony with an horrible game positive stuff no PO = more time to rest for playing this summer for FNT ! Go France Go !

[Chomag]

Can someone please give Pop early vacation? HE sure needs it.

[ShoogarBear]

How many times have the Sixers jumped the exact same passing lane?

[timtonymanu]

games over. Tim and Tony wont heat up. And the Sixers just keep running in.

[TIMMYD!]

So how many times have we lost the ball and let the Sixers score in transition?

Like 6 or 7.

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK this team

[Death In June]

Nice matchup with TP there.

[Chomag]

Pop never learns does he. :bang

Most stubborn man in the NBA. :bang

[Crookshanks]

when will Pop ever learn? We get a big lead and he throws it away by playing small ball. Why is he so damn stubborn?

[Warlord23]

Pop calling a timeout to make some minor adjustments to his master plan. More Bogans at the 3 and RJ at the 4, Pop. That's what we need!

[Spurologist]

It's only february. :rolleyes

[raspsa]

TD or TP need to wake up.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

I love small ball

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I am NOT a smallball fan, but the 76ers have been destroying us on transition, and going small might be an attempt to slow them down. If we go bigger, we get killed even worse in transition... unless you play Ian, who can run the floor. Now there's an idea! Playing big AND quick! :lmao

[DesignatedT]

wow pop. why is parker gaurding iggy? fucking dumb fuck seriously. i wouldnt even put that fucking matchup together in nba live.

[Spursmania]

Pop calling a timeout to make some minor adjustments to his master plan. More Bogans at the 3 and RJ at the 4, Pop. That's what we need!

More Bogans and Bonner to the rescue:wakeup

[Brazil]

I own him in DL II. ;)

Hey, is it you that's killing me this week? Where did that come from? :lol

:lol I don't why they all decided to play well this week and the injuries of Monta and Wade are helping me a little :) Other positive stuff kobe is out so I have a chance on the FG%

[Crookshanks]

I am NOT a smallball fan, but the 76ers have been destroying us on transition, and going small might be an attempt to slow them down. If we go bigger, we get killed even worse in transition... unless you play Ian, who can run the floor. Now there's an idea! Playing big AND quick! :lmao

The Sixers are like 3rd in the NBA for fast break points - shouldn't the Spurs have known that? They don't seem to be doing much to slow them down.

[Spurologist]

Announcer: pop with plenty of tricks up his sleeve

:lmao small ball

[timtonymanu]

losing to a non playoff team. nice second half push, spurs! you guys havent learned a damn thing.

[ShoogarBear]

HORRIBLE spacing on offense.

[Brazil]

I am NOT a smallball fan, but the 76ers have been destroying us on transition, and going small might be an attempt to slow them down. If we go bigger, we get killed even worse in transition... unless you play Ian, who can run the floor. Now there's an idea! Playing big AND quick! :lmao

what ? are you insane ? playing Ian ? crazy idea

[Spurs Brazil]

Fuck you Mason, go ask for a trade MOFO

[TIMMYD!]

Yet another fucking lost ball and transition points for the Sixers.


FML, hold on to the motherfucking ball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[poop]

Theo must be laughing at the spurs right now lol.

[Warlord23]

Lou Williams is making our backcourt look silly. These fuckers can't even pass the ball into the post

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

It's only february. :rolleyes

That's a bullshit call to make. No-one is out there saying "it's only Feb". People were saying "it's only December" early in December, and that makes sense 5 weeks into the season with injuries and chemistry issues. Past the ASB it obviously makes no sense.

[Crookshanks]

Surprise, surprise - another steal and a fast break. God this is really getting ugly!

[Spursmania]

Disgusting. they can't even set up an offensive play.

[Libri]

RC said that in the next 30 days the Spurs are going to play awesome.

[crc21209]

Forget it....

[biziofromdowntown]

RMJ sucks

[TIMMYD!]

Another 3 transition points, worst defense in the league.

[timtonymanu]

which is why we need athletes. Pop is probably gonna sign some old fuck in the offseason so we can lose more possessions in games.

[quentin_compson]

So Philly is a better defensive team than we are right now? Good god :depressed

[Spurs Brazil]

And just get worst...

[z0sa]

hahaha

[ginobili fan]

WOWOWOWWO
Just WOW...
WTF with this teeam ??????

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

wow this is fucking embarrassing

[Doe]

It feels like we're turning it over ever fucking possession

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

son of a bitch

[Spurologist]

That's a bullshit call to make. No-one is out there "saying it's only Feb". People were saying "it's only December" early in December, and that makes sense 5 weeks into the season with injuries and chemistry issues. Past the ASB it obviously makes no sense.

Sarcasm

[benefactor]

Why are you all so mad? This team is what it is...an aging team that has no clear direction. If we were actually trying to accomplish something one way or another I would be upset.

[TIMMYD!]

So, game over and good night.

[Brazil]

lol at the guys saying 22 - 8 or 21 - 9 for the 30 left games

[Refocus]

Game is fucking over, they just run and score points on this pathetic defense.

Offense sucks too. Cool. The fuck kind of team is this?

[superjames1992]

Well, this is depressing.

[ginobili fan]

Fire Pop

[murpjf88]

fuckin retards

[Crookshanks]

I'm turning this off now - can't stand this crap. 38 fast break points - WTF

[timtonymanu]

31-22. Still not closing the gap for some goddamn hope.

[spursrocksocks]

http://www.testriffic.com/resultfiles/16272ist2_1561236_suicide.jpg

[Spurologist]

Spurs offense is all one on one right now

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

and we cant get a damn rebound

[Death In June]

I wonder if pop even knows he has critics. Nobody has the balls to to say a word to him.

[Spursmania]

Well, the sixers kicked our ass:bang

[Brazil]

why everybody seems to be surprised ? no trade theo sending to the cats for a peanut bag ... this season is over

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol?

[ShoogarBear]

Way to step up, Tim.

[timtonymanu]

honestly Tim was shit tonight. I think he's only gonna get worse.

[poop]

90% on pop. just like the last 2 seasons.

[Spurs Brazil]

Why play those shit like Bonner, Bogans, Mason? Put some young blood there Pop.

Give Ian and Malik a chance

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

When will Kori show be I must be in work in 10 minute. Can I have time for call?

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

why the hell is pop such a bitch

[Chieflion]

It is ok if we lose this game. Lottery, here we come.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Anyone still under the illusion we're a contender?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

So Popavich plays small ball for the first time all game, lets his team dig itself a huge hole by being outmatched via small ball, then goes to two bigmen once we are in a ten point hole?

This man has lost it. He really has.

[ShoogarBear]

The Spurs have quit.

[TJastal]

That's a bullshit call to make. No-one is out there saying "it's only Feb". People were saying "it's only December" early in December, and that makes sense 5 weeks into the season with injuries and chemistry issues. Past the ASB it obviously makes no sense.

he was being sarcastic obviously

[Spurologist]

Announcer: Sixers dominating the spurs in the fourth quarter

I think a part of me just died

15-0 run

[mexicanjunior]

That's a bullshit call to make. No-one is out there "saying it's only Feb". People were saying "it's only December" early in December, and that makes sense 5 weeks into the season with injuries and chemistry issues. Past the ASB it obviously makes no sense.

Alot of people saw the same issues back then that plague this team now and commented on them...only to hear the majority of this forum respond with "It's only (whatever month it is). BELIEVE OR GTFO!"...

I don't blame him one bit for stating the month now...

[DMX7]

Tim is looking so overpaid.

[superjames1992]

Manu!!!

[murpjf88]

I wonder if I can get a refund for LPB.

[poop]

honestly, dont bring duncan into the hate fest. none of this is his fault.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

On the other hand spurstalkers:

Spurs rarely win in Philly. Ever.

[Spurs Brazil]

And another thing.

RC should give TP and early vocation so he can rest to play for France

[Brazil]

Anyone still under the illusion we're a contender?

a contender ?:lol :lmao:lmao

[Spursmania]

Wow- hearing, "the Sixers dominating the Spurs here in the 4th quarter" makes me want to:vomit:

[Chieflion]

Look at the records we have set this season.

Most points in the paint allowed against anyone in the league this season: 78
Most fast break points: To be updated.

[TIMMYD!]

We've lost our direction and this team is going nowhere.

No, I'm not saying this just because of the loss, it's the truth our defense becomes stagnant when we're doing well offensively and vice-versa.

[shingo_318]

6-2 bankrupts

[Libri]

Ian is coming in.

[vanishing_dude]

finally..c'mon.:flag:

[quentin_compson]

Well, let's be honest. Philly are playing hard, we are not. But it's shocking how this is turning into a blowout.

[timtonymanu]

Anyone still under the illusion we're a contender?

im not. but it'd be nice to see if this team can have a pulse. but still no change. everyone being a FA this summer should not be resigned except Manu. Trade RJ and Dice at the start of the year. Trade TP if he decides to play for the FNT. The only ones i want to see back are

Tim - Hill- Blair- Manu.

Everyone else GTFO.

[spursrocksocks]

http://static.pyzam.com/img/funnypics/8/killme.jpg

[Chomag]

LOL Pop messing with Ian's head? HE sent him to the scorers table then yanked him back to the bench :lol

[DesignatedT]

duncan is hurt. hes falling apart like last season. he plays this shitty and there is absolutely no hope

[Billy Cobham]

:lmao

[Obstructed_View]

Well at least the starters are well rested.

[ShoogarBear]

honestly, dont bring duncan into the hate fest. none of this is his fault.

Dalembert got ejected. Philly now has no one who can even come close to guarding him. Yet he's done nothing since that point.

Maybe not on the season, but he gets a lot of blame for this game.

[Spursmania]

And another thing.

RC should give TP and early vocation so he can rest to play for France

Yep. France needs him and he can't let them down.:rolleyes

[Libri]

TP with 2 pts.

[DesignatedT]

LOL Pop messing with Ian's head? HE sent him to the scorers table then yanked him back to the bench :lol

thats because he saw it was a media timeout at the next dead ball genius.

[austN Spur]

wow can't believe this one.
this 4th quarter is iugly

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Ian was about to come in, and then Manu scores and Pop makes Ian go back to his seat.. wtf is this guy doing

[TDfan2007]

honestly, dont bring duncan into the hate fest. none of this is his fault.


Not exactly. He needs to demand the ball in these situations and put up a good shot. He's been garbage on offense for the past month or so and I think it'll just get worse.

[benefactor]

http://blogs.suntimes.com/sportsprose/nba-draft-lottery.jpg
Do it.

[ShoogarBear]

Philly set their season record for fast break points tonight with 38, which is twice their average.

[Death In June]

What the fuck was that. Now Ian back at the bench, replaced with Bonner.

[sandman]

11-0 FT advantage in 4th quarter for Philly because we can't play defense.

Matt Boganson has as many fouls as rebounds.

Our four "shooters" go 0-8 on 3PA.

All against a team that wins only one out of every three home games.

[ChumpDumper]

OK, now bring Ian in.

[poop]

hes still not gonna play Ian :lol

he puts in bonner instead:lol

[Chieflion]

Manu and Hill should stop trying. Why should they even try if no one else gives a shit?

[sribb43]

mavs are trying to hand the spurs the SW division and no one wants it

[EmptyMan]

The Basketball Gods have moved on.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

wow and he puts bonner in instead?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

So, we let all these contracts expire rather then move them for young pieces at the deadline... how the fuck do they plan to rebuild this team???

[benefactor]

Human white flag is in.

[crc21209]

Sad that Ian is the white flag....WOW.

[Death In June]

You can hear defeat in Bill Lang's voice. It's sort of comical.

[superjames1992]

LOL Ian Manhimi!!! HORRIBLE defense.

[ginobili fan]

WHAT THE FUCK was that. Now Ian back at the bench, replaced with Bonner.

Sometimes I just want to kill POP he's so a crazy bad ass bonehead old senile motherfucker worst coach in the nba right now.

[Chomag]

No weakside help?

[itzsoweezee]

i hope manu goes to a good team next year. one with a competent coach, for a change.

[Brazil]

Igy at one reb and 2 assist of the triple D ! Let's root for him

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

No........I must go to work I will miss show. Please someone help me get unbanned?

[Chieflion]

So now that Dalembert incident is the turning point?

[DesignatedT]

LMAO good D mahinmi

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We need a rebuilding plan ala the Zombie Sonics... right now it looks like the FO is totally out of ideas.

[ShoogarBear]

Nice help from the guards there for Ian.

[crc21209]

Ian digging himself deeper into Pop's doghouse...great....

[superjames1992]

LOL Manhimi! A walk! Yeah, let's play this man some more!

That said, he shouldn't have had to bring that ball up the court.

[Chomag]

thats because he saw it was a media timeout at the next dead ball genius.

hmm what was that genius?

[murpjf88]

why doesn't Ian get minutes? LOL

[Bartleby]

Ian's not ready for prime time.

[HarlemHeat37]

Does the team try to make Ian look bad on purpose?..

They make him dribble up the whole court? LOL..seriously?..

[austN Spur]

the guards didnt do a good job getting tim the ball down low. the put up a bunch of bricks

[ChumpDumper]

Great opportunity for Ian. Can anyone make a GIF of that traveling call?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Philly set their season record for fast break points tonight with 38, which is twice their average.

They were going out of their way to run on every play even when it was a 5 on 5 situation. Because they knew we don't have the speed to keep up with them whether we go big or small.

This was a game to break in Ian, training day style. So what if he fouls out? He's quick as hell and everyone knows it.

Flat out stupid. We play spurs ball dictate the pace, then go small for 6 minutes in the fourth, dig a huge hole, then go big and slow to dig ourselves out?
Ridiculous.

Pop has lost it.

[ShoogarBear]

So now that Dalembert incident is the turning point?

It should have been the point at which Tim started dominating.

[mexicanjunior]

One game closer to lottery central...just do it Pop.

[DesignatedT]

haha theres the savior mahinmi...

[Brazil]

Ian the leader of the per 40 min of the whole league is back

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

lol 2016 pick

[pjjrfan]

They didn't play that bad. But you could tell that by the 4th Manu was gassed, and the whole team just lost energy. Tony struggled physcially, he was hurting then Hill came out lame late. once Manu's legs gave out, Mason and RJ couldn't make anything happen. I'd rather have seen Blair instead of McDyess there late before that killer run by the sixer's. Oh well.

[ShoogarBear]

Great opportunity for Ian. Can anyone make a GIF of that traveling call?

Make sure you include his teammates all looking the other way.

[austN Spur]

shitty gm. damm

[Death In June]

LMAO good D mahinmiYou have pretty unrealistic expectations. Ragging on the dude while he's had no playing time, no time to develop. People are gonna use early mistakes as an indicator that their evaluation was right? That's retarded.

[phxspurfan]

hmmm

[Baseline]

There's absolutely no way Manu resigns with Popovich.

And there's absloutely no way we get a decent free agent to sign with Popovich.

Does Peter Holt not know this? Why are we not hearing rumblings around the league that Pop's job is in jeopardy? it definitely should be.

They were going out of their way to run on every play even when it was a 5 on 5 situation. Because they knew we don't have the speed to keep up with them whether we go big or small.

This was a game to break in Ian, training day style. So what if he fouls out? He's quick as hell and everyone knows it.

Flat out stupid. We play spurs ball dictate the pace, then go small for 6 minutes in the fourth, dig a huge hole, then go big and slow to dig ourselves out?
Ridiculous.

Yup.
