fake odds:

Hairston being active : +110

over/under minutes for Ian Mahinmi : 2.5

Matt Bonner missing open layup : +140

over/under points for Richard Jefferson : 12.5

Pop playing microball (Blair @ center + sfs/gs) : +110

Here's to the beginning of mediocrity. I'm already most of the way there mentally...so it's not so bad.:toast

[xellos88330]

Spurs were playing possum to attempt to get a good deal by trade deadline.

It didn't work and now the Spurs are going to wreak havoc on the whole of the NBA. Book it baby!


GO SPURS GO! :flag:

[Obstructed_View]

I think the Spurs have outsmarted themselves by being cute for so long, and a return to basic basketball is unlikely. That said, hope springs eternal, and I'll be listening.

WIN DAMN YOU!

[objective]

will Pop continue with the Bogner starting 5?

if yes . . . so sad, so sad

[Libri]

Even with the lineup change, I will stick with my prediction. Spurs will win.

:flag:

[G-Nob]

I like Jeff coming off the bench. Lets try that for a while.

[spurtilldeath]

Go Spurs Go!!

[ffadicted]

Damn, won't be able to catch this one, gettin' my drunk on tonight :smokin

Best of luck to the spurs and fellow posters, try not to commit suicide http://fc00.deviantart.com/fs6/i/2005/115/7/e/__Jump_Off_a_Cliff___Emoticon_by_neek_zique.gif

Meh...I'm done being sad, disappointed, angry, whatever. I'm just gonna watch the games. If we win, good. If we lose, whatever. It's rebuilding time and I refuse to get emotionally involved in what has now become the 2010's version of the early 90's Celtics.

[bigdog]

Just win the game....and play Ian.

[Spurs Brazil]

JMac_SAEN: #spurs going with same lineup vs. 76ers. Pop likes Bonner's floor-stretching and Bogans' defensive presence.
Jeff McDonald: Parker is active and starting

[Bruno]

The lineup Yahoo shows is Parker/Bogans/Jefferson/McDyess/Duncan.

Ian is inactive (Hairston call up).

[duncan228]

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

[bigdog]

Damn. Ian is inactive.

[Spurs Brazil]

The lineup Yahoo shows is Parker/Bogans/Jefferson/McDyess/Duncan.

Ian is inactive (Hairston call up).

Bonner out is GREAT news

And McDonald fail again

[waly.mg]

Just win the game....and play Ian.

BOTH ARE THE SAME

If Ian play, will be a Garbage win

[timtonymanu]

so were going back to the lineup we had the first part of the season?

i liked hill starting, but better this lineup than the one last game.

[alchemist]

:lmao I thought Pop was through messing around the lineup...

[bigdog]

Sooo...Pop changed the lineup again? Wtf. Stop playing with our heads.

[kobyz]

to win this we need McDyess to have a good game!

[duncan228]

I'm not sure who to believe is starting.

[Spursmania]

bonner out is great news

and mcdonald fail again

+1

[Chieflion]

MIA Pop.

[Spursmania]

Pop needs to get off his rocker and make up his mind.
The last 30 games we should begin to see concrete rotations.

[8FOR!3]

This lineup is a little better, but I'd have Hill start for Bogans. If you want Ginobili to come off the bench at guard that's fine, but not Ginobili and Hill, pick your poison.

Tony Parker
George Hill
Richard Jefferson
Antonio McDyess
Tim Duncan

That lineup would be better.

[bigdog]

I think Manu needs to go for the new Peja look.

[Bruno]

Yahoo has updated the lineup.
Parker/Hill/Bogans/Bonner/Duncan.

Hairston inactive.

[Spurs Brazil]

Yahoo has updated the lineup.
Parker/Hill/Bogans/Bonner/Duncan.

Hairston inactive.

:depressed:depressed:depressed:depressed:depressed

[Chieflion]

Pop really likes his useless vets and go small at the first minute with Bogans at the 3.

[bigdog]

Son if a bitch. At least Ian is active.

[poop]

bonner starting again.haha

[dbestpro]

Pop said he is going with the same lineup for the rest of the year. I like the way Tony has played of late, but it seems wierd that Pop has to keep benching starters because they can't play with Tony.

[timtonymanu]

Bonner starting was the reason why i hated him so much. off the bench he looked decent.

[Chieflion]

Bonner starting was the reason why i hated him so much. off the bench he looked decent.
I don't hate a player for his coach's retarded decision.

[Spursmania]

:pop: I like Bonner and Bogans starting. At least I didn't start Fin?:toast

[jjktkk]

I don't hate a player for his coach's retarded decision.

For some reason some ST's on here overlook that fact, and just hate on Bonner.

[bigdog]

i just hate on Bonner, period. I think he sucks.

[murpjf88]

Boy, its dead in hear. must be the early start time

[Chieflion]

Has Pop really thrown Dice to the doghouse? He deserves more minutes than this bullshit.

[The Red Hood]

For some reason some ST's on here overlook that fact, and just hate on Bonner.
It's the "Teacher's Pet" effect. No one ever hates the teacher as much as they hate the teacher's favorite student.

[ShoogarBear]

Helps to actually face the player you're trying to guard, Bogans.

[bigdog]

I love bogans jacking up transition 3's...not. good shot by GHill though.

[murpjf88]

Bogans idea of defense is to foul the guy.

[dbestpro]

i think i'd rather see finley start over bogans.

[Chieflion]

Bogans got into foul trouble early. More power to the Spurs.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs ice cold again

We need to stop with the Js and attack

[bigdog]

Spurs fouling up the ass so far.

[dbestpro]

If Bonner is going to be on the floor to start they need to run some plays for him to shoot the three, otherwise he time on the court is just wasted.

[Chieflion]

Bloody stream.

[bigdog]

That's good D by RJ, Iggy just hit a good shot.

[timtonymanu]

Hill's the only making shots. The others gotta step up.

[biziofromdowntown]

ehm....PM me if u've a.....stream....

[dbestpro]

Duncan stiil in a funk. I think he's pressing trying to make up for Pops poor coaching.

[bigdog]

Jesus Christ, Iggy is looking good with his jumpshot. Off balance and everything.

[Spurs Brazil]

Iguodala on fire

fuck

[The Red Hood]

Iggy is everything the Spurs wanted Jefferson to be.

[timtonymanu]

I wish we had Iggy.

[ShoogarBear]

Crisp offense, tenacious defense. Good start, guys.

[DesignatedT]

lol. parker and duncan look hurt.

[crc21209]

No surprise here so far....over the past couple years the Spurs have played like absolute crap in Philly...

[vander]

Duncan can't even beat one-on-one defense anymore, he basically needs other players to create shots for him.

[poop]

great defense as predicted, with Bonner as the starting center. the other team NEVER jumps out to a lead in that situation!

[murpjf88]

Deja vu all over again in the 1st.

[crc21209]

Dice with the nice jumper :tu

[bigdog]

Nice baseline J by Dice.

[crc21209]

God I hate when they make the Spurs wear their home whites on the road...it's retarded :td

[murpjf88]

Manu isn't going to get crap in the paint

[it's me]

ehm....PM me if u've a.....stream....

same here....

[8FOR!3]

Wouldn't Jrue Holiday be an awfully nice backup to Tony Parker?

[dbestpro]

Spurs moving around like they're stuck in mud.

[crc21209]

Manu 3333333333333333

[Chieflion]

Can't find the you know what.

[8FOR!3]

Speaking of Parker, wtf is he doing? Air ball layup. That's some Jared Jeffries shit right there.

[NRHector]

ehm....PM me if u've a.....stream....
and me

[crc21209]

TD off the bank!

[TD 21]

Deja vu with Duncan. He's laboring to score, just like around this time last year. Parker is ailing and the team doesn't have another player capable of consistently scoring 20, so what we're seeing now is a mediocre offense in addition to the perpetually mediocre defense; not a good combination.

[Spurs Brazil]

Offense is better but perimeter D sucks. We put no pressure on their Js

[bigdog]

Exactly. Spurs are leaving Philly shooters wide open. Except Iggy, who's been covered pretty well. He's just hitting some nice shots.

[dbestpro]

Offense is better but perimeter D sucks. We put no pressure on their Js

As usual we need to crowd the shooters. We play off way too much and have been doing this all season.

[crc21209]

Adam is gay...

[bigdog]

Adam is gay...

Not true.

[dbestpro]

We really need some production from Blair.

[crc21209]

Not true.

:lol I knew you would respond to that

[bigdog]

:lol I knew you would respond to that

I had to let it be known. :lol

[Warlord23]

lol @ the transition D

[crc21209]

Manu with the Manu-esque move! :tu

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu and one!!

[dbestpro]

Spur players left RJ hanging out to dry on D.

[timtonymanu]

that was some crap transition D. these guys act like they only have one leg.

[toki9]

So they've gone 9 deep so far, and no Mase?

[crc21209]

Another offensive board for Philly....FML....

[bigdog]

LOL Blair. Nice.

[crc21209]

Dejuan Blair running his own fast break! :lmao

[lurker23]

I'm just following this game from Yahoo GameChannel, but I like Pop's rotations so far.

-The starting 5 is still weird, but when Bogans got 2 early fouls, he went to Jefferson at the 10:10 mark in the 2nd quarter.

-Then Parker was out for a bit with Hill running the point, and McDyess was the first big off the bench.

-Eventually this led to the ever-called-for lineup of Parker/Ginobili/Jefferson/Duncan/McDyess.

-Now, with about 1:30 left in the first quarter, Blair is the second big off the bench and is paired with McDyess.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 26-25 after one

[dbestpro]

Strange first quarter. We played horrible and still have the lead. Philly really is in a funk.

[crc21209]

Why is it that Pop cant recognize that the damn team starts to play better when Bonner and Bogans hit the bench....WTF?!?!?!

[ShoogarBear]

Good job by the bench. Defense still sucks.

[quentin_compson]

Yeah, the D isn't great. Nice start by Hill, though.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol pop's new tactic is dig a hole with the starting lineup and hope the bench fill the hole

[Chieflion]

Dice bobbling a pass. Who the hell knew?

[Spurs Brazil]

Dice with Nazr hands

[vander]

Why is it that Pop cant recognize that the damn team starts to play better when Bonner and Bogans hit the bench....WTF?!?!?!

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the quality of other teams' bench players that sub in around the same time.

and how many other teams bring their "3rd best player" off the bench?

our 2nd unit better play better than theirs

[crc21209]

Dice's hands fucking suck...

[Libri]

nice layup by Blair

[crc21209]

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the quality of other teams' bench players that sub in around the same time.

and how man other teams bring their "3rd best player" off the bench?

our 2nd unit better play better than theirs

Yeah but it's not good to get into an early hole as well....

[timtonymanu]

goddamn play some defense.

[ShoogarBear]

There is no interior defense.

[Warlord23]

WTF is with the gambling on defense? easy layups for the sixers

[Spurs Brazil]

Defense SUCKS

[dbestpro]

Dice needs to turn on the light bulb.

[romsho]

Bill and P.J keep mentioning the bad starts last 2 games...code for Pop's opening lineup blows.

[ShoogarBear]

Great pass by Blair!

[crc21209]

Amazing pass by Manu to Blair!!!!!!!!!

[bigdog]

Dice caught the ball that time. Cool.

[bless1187]

blair is actually a decent passer for a big.

[crc21209]

Nice fastbreak bucket! :tu Hell yeah!

[dbestpro]

damn we keep playing like crap, feels like we should be 20 down and we still got the lead.

[Warlord23]

Manu to RJ ... nice

[crc21209]

If the Spurs played a lick of defense they would easily be up 10 or more...

[bigdog]

Defense is sucking.

[bless1187]

MAN... WTF!!! we can't have M. Bonner starting...

[Dex]

This defense is just terrible.

[Spurs Brazil]

Layup drill for the 76ers, good news is 76ers D sucks too

[Dex]

If our defense is gonna suck ducks either way, I don't see why we can't at least give Mason some PT.

[SequSpur]

I've seen this movie and I know how it ends.

[bigdog]

Tony can't throw a lob to save his life.

[crc21209]

Tony can't throw a lob to save his life.

He thought RJ was 7'0 tall...jackass.....

[tp2021]

Blair is really showing glimpses of being special...I hope the FO sees it too

[Libri]

Parker blocked

[ShoogarBear]

If our defense is gonna suck ducks either way


Ewwww

[bigdog]

Parker can't make a fucking layup.

[crc21209]

TD made Dalembert look like....welll TD on that possession...

[Dex]

Gettin' pretty tired of Tony's shit.

[Spurs Brazil]

The bad TP came to play tonight :(

[lurker23]

Blair is really showing glimpses of being special...I hope the FO sees it too

I personally think they do, since he's one of the few rookies the Spurs have had in recent years to get consistent playing time, and they refused to include his name in trade talks for Amar'e Stoudemire.

[Warlord23]

What's curious is that although Pop started Bonner and Bogans, he's put in more productive lineups since then. Is it just a psychological thing then, hoping Jefferson/Dice/Blair won't feel as much pressure coming off the bench?

[ginobili fan]

WTF with Tony ?
Just can't stand him play like that .
Rest his ass.

[Dex]

I just noticed...why the hell ARE we in the whites?

[MB3//]

Twice tonight already Blair has been aware of the shotblocker when he's gone up. Good to see him use his left hand. It was cool to hear Pau Gasol told him to work on his left.

[Warlord23]

Sloppy play for the last few minutes

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

no one did laundry after last game?

[Libri]

Blair misses a layup

[ginobili fan]

come on they can't make a fuckin layup

[Libri]

bricks

[crc21209]

Brick, brick, brick, brick.....

[ginobili fan]

Brick fest

[timtonymanu]

god everyone is off tonight. wtf?

[crc21209]

Well what do you know...another brick....

[Dex]

*clang* *clang* *clang*

[quentin_compson]

Those "clanks" by Manu and Tim were pretty loud. :lol

[ginobili fan]

brick

[crc21209]

Crap foul...

[BanditHiro]

Why hasn't Pop rested Tony at all?


to get him tired before the summer so he can think twice about playing for the national team lol

[Dex]

Why hasn't Pop rested Tony at all?

Parker rested some in the 1st. He was subbed by Manu at about 7:00, and replaced Hill at about 3:00.

[timtonymanu]

it's like our offense is contagious. everyone seems to be off at the same time.

[sportan73]

I understand that defenses adjust and all but how do you go from getting wide open looks inside to shooting 10 straight jump shots

[bigdog]

WTF. Hill was running around like crazy back there. Why did no one else go back there to help him? Idiots.

[ginobili fan]

I seriously don't understand Pop rotations.
Hill is the only one who started well and Tony looks so tired .

[bless1187]

i hate the fact that M. Bonner is starting but i like the fact that his playing time is still limited.

[Spurs Brazil]

J after J after J, no agressive on O and on D

[Warlord23]

Duncan/Parker a combined 3 of 12 from the field

[ginobili fan]

I seriously don't see how Parker will be fresh come playoffs time

[Chieflion]

Stream did it again.

[Pauleta14]

I seriously don't see how Parker will be fresh come playoffs time


He needs a 1 month long injury... :lol

[bless1187]

any other stream other than adthe , i think it just got blocked.

[crc21209]

Mason with the nice drive...WOW...

[Dex]

Damn, somebody take the lid off.

[TDfan2007]

:lol we can't buy a basket right now. Oh and Tim's offense is garbage now. Just like last year...

[Dex]

*clang*

Do they mic the rims like Dallas or what?

[The Red Hood]

Do they mic the rims like Dallas or what?
I was about to post the same thing. :lol

Manu 3

[ginobili fan]

finally...

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

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

bench to the rescue LOL

[crc21209]

Manu with the slam! Hell yeahhhhhhhhhhh

[bless1187]

anyone got any other streams they are watching the game from other than ATDHE since it just got blocked by administrator... PLEASE PM ME... THX.

[crc21209]

Some nice D finallyyyyyyy!

[ginobili fan]

Manu come on !!

[TDfan2007]

Great D to finish the quarter!

[crc21209]

Manu....dare I say...is looking like the Manu I know and love...:tu

[TDfan2007]

Vintage Manu!

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu and one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Libri]

Manu powers his way for a layup and a foul.

[ginobili fan]

When I look at Duncan I really think there's no one comparable to him on D

[Dex]

Unbelievable. Go six minutes without a field goal, and we're still up 7 going into half.

That, my friends, is fool's gold.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 52-45 at the half

[timtonymanu]

fuckin lou williams!

[ginobili fan]

I hope Manu will keep that way the rest of season

[vander]

if there's like a 2-3 second difference in the shot and game clock, IMO you should just shoot a long (screened) 3 at the buzzer, so there's no chance they run it down the court and get a cheap bucket.

[Warlord23]

Lou Williams is having a field day taking it to the basket

[TIMMYD!]

Seems like Tim should have more than 5 boards...

[vander]

I hope Manu will keep that way the rest of season

we don't get to play shitty teams in the playoffs

Manu has looked good this year only against sub .500 teams

[Death In June]

18 minutes for gino, 17 for parker. Pop can't manage minutes very well anymore. Why play paker at all right now? Rest him for the next two weeks.

[lurker23]

Man, I really hope this lineup continues to work well (as ugly as it's sounded, Spurs are up 7 at the half). On paper, this is pretty much my ideal distribution of minutes and roles.

If you double the Spurs minutes in the first half, you get:

Parker: 34 mpg
Hill: 26 mpg

Manu: 35 mpg (maybe a little high)
Jefferson: 30 mpg
Mason: 14 mpg
Bogans: 4 mpg

Duncan: 35 mpg (again, maybe a tad high, at least for now)
McDyess: 30 mpg
Blair: 19 mpg
Bonner: 11 mpg

And best of all, ZERO small ball!!

McDyess: 30 mpg

Bonner: 11 mpg

And best of all, ZERO small ball!!

I still don't agree with Bogans and Bonner to start. Both times so far, we've come out pathetically and given up a 8-10 point lead to start the game. Once the subs come in, the game shifts. There's gotta be something to do about that.

[ginobili fan]

18 minutes for gino, 17 for parker. Pop can't manage minutes very well anymore. Why play paker at all right now? Rest him for the next two weeks.

I think Pop simply doesn't know how to manage all the players we have.
Look at Bogans and Bonner as starters and they got 1min30 and 5 min.(wich is a good thing then why do you start them ?)
Tired Parker minutes over Hill 14 minutes who looked good

[bless1187]

anyone one got stream to this game other than atdhe since the admin blocked it... pm me... thx.

Then this our definitive line up.
But Hairston and Mahinmi in place of Bogans and Bonner would be perfect.

I agree, but if you give me the choice between a crappy starting lineup and that rotation, or a more solid starting lineup and small ball, I take the first one. I know we shouldn't have to make that choice, but so far those are the two major Pop rotations we've seen recently.

[TJastal]

Then this our definitive line up.
But Hairston and Mahinmi in place of Bogans and Bonner would be perfect.

That would be a bold move now, at this stage in the game. 30 games into the season I might try that, but not with 30 games left.

[poop]

haha ratliff already getting some minutes for charlotte, 2 blocks so far in 9 minutes.
good thing we kept bonner, he defends the paint even better, a true starting center.

[ace3g]

someone is having fun with yahoo sports

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore?gid=2010021929

shaq's face, lol, its been on a lot of the nba team pages in weird spots

[FvckMavs]

I hope Pop will not bring out small ball and we are in 10pt deficit.

[austN Spur]

go spurs go

[Chieflion]

anyone one got stream to this game other than atdhe since the admin blocked it... pm me... thx.
Son, check your PM.

[Dex]

I can't argue with that. I'm about ready to rip my eyes out when Pop goes small these days.

Still, we can't be spotting leads to every team we play. This team has a terrible habit of trying to play out of a hole, and that's not going to help things at all. Personally, I'd rather see Mason take Bogan's spot in the rotation, but there's obviously a reason why I've got my job and Pop's got his.

[TDomination]

Where here is the starting lineup again, we'll see how they do

[murpjf88]

Great start to the third

[Dex]

:lol So they DO mic the rims.

[murpjf88]

as if bonner had a chance

[TDomination]

blah, sixers coming back

[Warlord23]

Why does this lineup need to be trotted out again? Is Pop trying to make a point here?

[angelbelow]

Damn they are really going with that starting line up here.

[ShoogarBear]

Gee, what a shock. Bogans and Bonner start, the Spurs suck.

[TIMMYD!]

Can someone tell Bonner to stop shooting?

[angelbelow]

Nice take by Hill

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner and Bogans sucks

[ginobili fan]

That would be a bold move now, at this stage in the game. 30 games into the season I might try that, but not with 30 games left.

Yeah I know then we just have to hope Bonner making 3s and playing tough but I really don't expect anything about Bogans unfortunately.
Come on do you see a player like him in Lakers or Cleveland rotations ?
This is ridiculous he wouldn't even get bench minutes.

[lurker23]

Why does this lineup need to be trotted out again? Is Pop trying to make a point here?

For better or worse, Pop almost always starts the 2nd half with his starters. Seems kind of odd, since you've had half a game to evaluate the flow, but I guess he feels it makes a fresh restart for the half.

[SCdac]

This is the lineup that's going to start games and out of the half from here on out, evidently.

[toki9]

Is Bogans this year's Udoka, but with starter's spot?

[Warlord23]

Hill keeping this shit lineup competitive

[angelbelow]

Another nice take by Hill

[Libri]

How did Tim make that?

[angelbelow]

Let Blair go at EB, maybe he can learn a few things..

[Spurs Brazil]

Brand killing Bonner

SIT THIS MOFO

[timtonymanu]

Is Bogans this years Udoka?

more like Finley. Pop never let Udoka play alot of minutes like he has with Keith.

[angelbelow]

Thank goodness for Timmay

[angelbelow]

Iverson is really struggling out there.

[TDomination]

In and out for timmy

[Libri]

WTF is Bonner doing?!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Listen to these whining 76er announcers. :rolleyes

[angelbelow]

Haha Sammy D is hella frustrated

[Warlord23]

So once the lead is cut in half, Pop takes out Bonner and Bogans. Heck Pop, if all you want is a couple of stooges to start the game play Mahinmi and Hairston - they can't be any worse

[timtonymanu]

damn i thought brand had an and 1 there.

[TDomination]

haha, wow im surprised they called that but im not complaining :D

[Libri]

Dalembert ejected

[murpjf88]

Spurs caught a break. the paint is open

[Warlord23]

lol Dalembert

[raspsa]

Dalembert ejected. Dumb.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

That is a bad call though. What is Brand meant to do? He's not allowed to ride the bump from Hill? They call him on that little arm-bar? Terrible.

[quentin_compson]

Eddie Jordan is close to losing it. :lol

Oh, and Dalembert is ejected.

[Fermixalot]

There goes Dalembert. Lucky break.

[TDomination]

Beautiful play by G. Hill!
