Props to RJ

[nkdlunch]

best game of the season for him IMO.

:king

if he plays like this every game, Spurs actually might have a chance

[timtonymanu]

His block on Amare was awesome.

[smeagol]

Agreed.

He had a monster game.

Props Dick . . .

[8FOR!3]

Breakout game this year for sure. Him and McDyess both.

[TIMMYD!]

Best game of the year easily.

That's what being aggressive does I suppose.

[FeZZy]

crazy boss overall for the whole team except booger but thats a good thing

[Spurs Brazil]

Props, good game

[HarlemHeat37]

He had a good game, but I've made the mistake of getting excited about one of his games in the past..

He needs to do it consistently, not just against the 29th ranked defense in the NBA..

[DPG21920]

RJ is just like the Spurs. They take one exciting step forward, then two steps back.

[Pero]

I thought this was about Richardson, Jason.

[BillMc]

He had a nice game. Lets make it a trend, Richard!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

what r u talking about they are the suns a lot of defense...

[SenorSpur]

:tu to RJ for a really good game.

[crc21209]

RJ played well in every way possible...he was aggressive, he played good D, made his FT's, and created for others....props to RJ :tu

[urunobili]

This was what i have been expecting out of him almost daily :)

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I just loved how he didn't settle for jumpers. I did think the team got a bit too reliant on the outside J in the 4th quarter, but jefferson was at his best when he takes it hard to rim.

On the plus side, when he was taking 3's, he was hitting them.

+1...He didnt force up bad shots or bad 3 pointers...

[Bukefal]

:tu Hoping we will see more of this

[pjjrfan]

The last 3 games he has been super aggressive especially on the boards, and his block on amare was huge, this game was played at an intense level. the Suns came in rolling and the Spurs found a way to beat them, it wasn't pretty but if my memory serves me right, that's pretty much what Spurs basketball is all about.

[ffadicted]

The spurs only go as far as RJ goes :stirpot:

[ginobili fan]

I thought this was about Richardson, Jason.

:lol
This.
Again the Spurs could have lost this game if it wasn't Richardon Jason.
I would say good game Jefferson but I expect him to make more apparitions like that.
But I noticed he was more agressive the last games,and now he try to take more rebounds, play better defense, I just hope this is the real turnaround.
And it makes me mad to see Jeff at PF getting killed by Amare again god job Pop, Good Job...

[silverblk mystix]

nice game...since it was a win...we will take it...and appreciate it...lord knows when he fux up ....everyone is on his case

[FkLA]

Attacking the rim is the key for him. Thats his forte and what made him a 20 ppg scorer, its been frustrating seeing him basically be a glorified $14 mill jump shooter the entire season. Here's to more aggressive drives from RJ :toast

[ElNono]

I loved he went for the blocks. I hope getting posterized doesn't make him back down. He's going to block more shots than not contesting like that.

[exstatic]

He plays better with the second unit. The offense is a little less structured. He's freer to wave off someone like Blair and attack the rim himself.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

agreed, he had a good game

[bigdog]

Damn good game from RJ. We've seen flashes of this. Let's hope he can do this consistently from here on out.

[scottspurs]

Yeah besides getting posterized by Amare, Jefferson had a great game.

Keep up the hard work RJ.

[all_heart]

Agreed, good game for RJ, I even saw him calling for the ball, but Tony passed it to someone else.. :)

[lennyalderette]

yup we got to give hi props cause lord knows when he screws up we let him have it!! good job rj, manu started all this in my opinion, i think he just decided to go all out and be a leader, everyones following its nuts

[slayermin]

Manu and RJ play well together. Coming off the bench works because he seems more comfortable when he is expected to be the number one or number two option. Also, Hairston's performance in Houston will probably push RJ to be more active and aggressive or he's gonna sit.

[spurtech09]

now everyone is enjoying rj......lol....congrats rj

[Stringer_Bell]

Props to RJ for making the most out of the "pure" role we've been hearing he was given...he got some assists, got some rebounds, and made 7 of 11 shots. I found myself saying "Good RJ" instead of "dammit RJ" for most of the game.

He needs to stay hungry for whatever Pop is feeding him lately, and stay aggressive as much as he can.

[Tike Mailer]

One game doesn't mean shit.

Jefferson sucks. Deal with it, brah.

[Obstructed_View]

Props to RJ for making the most out of the "pure" role we've been hearing he was given.

You mean like when he was playing "pure" center with 4 guards having to cover Amare?

[PublicOption]

he got caught with some dunks in his face from Amare, but he was there on the rotation taking it is the face.....THAT IS WHAT I BEEN WAITING FOR. lose the pride and be there on defense.

[PublicOption]

I have to hand to our newest big in the rotation.



THE RIM. LOL

[Stringer_Bell]

Exactly!!


I have to hand to our newest big in the rotation.



THE RIM. LOL

The Rim had more blocks than Bonner and Dice, but will he show up every game?:rollin

[Flux451]

Good game.

The lineup of HIll, Manu, Jeff, Dice, and Duncan looked good tonight.

[blkroadrunners]

I'd probably be more impressed if he put up these numbers against, say the Lakers in a playoff game (or close/similar to it).

Still though, glad he played well today.

[Sean Cagney]

One game doesn't mean shit.

Jefferson sucks. Deal with it, brah.

And your garbage team will never get a title, deal with it brah!!!!!!!!!! :lol:lol:lol

[e20dylan]

Yeah besides getting posterized by Amare, Jefferson had a great game.

Keep up the hard work RJ.

it least he went for it instead of pussying out

[gospursgojas]

Thats how RJ needs to play every game!

I almost can't control my happiness at the thought of him playing that well for the rest of the season...but lets see what happens tonight.

[easy7]

Props to whom deserves props, shit to whom deserves to be shitted on...

[wildbill2u]

Especially impressive against a team like the Suns. As Nash said at the half interview, "When you play Phoenix, what you get is great defense.":lmao

[Killakobe81]

I think RJ off the bench make a lot of sense ...
He can get more shots and not defer to the Spurs big 3 ...
A bench of him, blair and Hill should be the wing rotation along with Parker and Manu as starters ...

I know why Pop likes manu off the bench but the execution he brings to the pnr game and his passing helps make the spurs really effective ...

a top 8 of Duncan, Dice, Manu, Parker and whomever is the best defender at SF ...with RJ hill and Blair providing energy speed and hustle I STILL believe is a top 4 in the west playoff rotation ...

Seriously Spur fans how is that line up NOT better than OKC, portland, Utah, Houston etc?!

the only reason maybe utah and OKC are better is because Durant and Dwill are young studs leading their respective teams ...come playoff time I STILL would rather have TD leading my team over those guys ...

If Bogawns, Boner, and Finley's corpse weren't still being used as major pieces in the rotation I would agree with you, but Bogawns is still starting, Finley is probably giving POop head after every DNP and having Boner and his gimmick 3pt shooting is always a temptation for POop to fall back on. I don't see any of this changing significantly this year.

[Ditty]

One game doesn't mean shit.

Jefferson sucks. Deal with it, brah.

well he ended up raping the mavs earlier this year:lol

[Killakobe81]

Look . i know you guys OWN the Suns but lately BOTH Manu and RJ have played better
Duncan is still Timmay!!
My only concern is Parker's health ...
