Game Blog: Spurs vs. Cavaliers

[DesignatedT]

bonner has played well. mason blair and dyess playing terrible.

[ElNono]

Well, Manu sure cooled off that quarter with only three third-quarter points. Hopefully, he can heat back up in the final frame of play.

We still scoring at a good pace... Hill stepped it up... we need more from Mason and RJ though

[BanditHiro]

i WANT TO HIT BONNER FOR FUCKING THAT REBOUND UP AND GVING THE CAVS A FREE TWO POINTS. FOR FUCKS SAKE BONNER.

he got fouled. so go chop off your head

[DPG21920]

Don't feel bad. A Kobe-less Lakers smashed the Spurs with Parker.

[ShoogarBear]

Bill Schoening said Bonner really got hammered, but the refs wouldn't call it.

Haven't seen a reply, but in real time didn't look like anything I would have called.

[Chieflion]

Why we hating on Bonner? He leads the team with 5 rebounds.

[DesignatedT]

alright RJ. time to make an appearance... bum

[Warlord23]

This lineup with Bonner and Blair is just what the Cavs needed. Without LBJ and Jamison, their scrubs can compete simply by gobbling up rebounds and driving into the paint at will.

[Crookshanks]

We still scoring at a good pace... Hill stepped it up... we need more from Mason and RJ though

Spurs still shot 50% in the 3rd - that's not bad.

[spurastic]

Bonner is playing very well! Go Bonner! He did get hacked and no call.

[Mel_13]

We still scoring at a good pace... Hill stepped it up... we need more from Mason and RJ though

RJ with zero shots in 16:26:wow

[DPG21920]

Why we hating on Bonner? He leads the team with 5 rebounds.

Add an assist to that as well.

[ElNono]

Are we gonna see more Jawad? :lol

[Johnny RIngo]

Bogans is probably the worst player in the league to get 20 mins a night.

Just checked hoopstats to confirm my suspicion. The only player that gets at least 20 mins a game and has a worse eff than Bogans is Trenton Hassel...a Nets player.

[vander]

he got fouled. so go chop off your head

:lol

also Bonner out rebounding TD in half the minutes :downspin:

[iminol]

are we going to win tonight?

[timtonymanu]

RJ please step up. This is your time to shine. Cmon one point?

[ShoogarBear]

Seriously, Keith Bogans last six starts: 4 games without a FG. Has that ever happened in NBA history?

[DPG21920]

Manu + Tim at 27 minutes each.

[Crookshanks]

12 more minutes - everyone needs to step up and stomp the Cavs.

[ElNono]

Manu with the O board

[Chieflion]

Manu to the line. He is everywhere.

[Spurs Brazil]

great play Manu

[ffadicted]

Is this lineup for srs?

[timtonymanu]

Duncan's rebounding has been horrible lately. Then again he's the only big that tries every night.

[jag]

Seriously, Keith Bogans last six starts: 4 games without a FG. Has that ever happened in NBA history?

He's making Bruce Bowen look like an offensive juggernaut.

[DPG21920]

RJ not getting any shots or hardly any minutes is ????????????

Then he airballs almost as I type that.

[TheProfessor]

RJ please step up. This is your time to shine. Cmon one point?
Ugh, awful miss from RJ.

[Crookshanks]

thank goodness for Manu tonight - or we'd be getting killed.

[blkroadrunners]

Let's expand this lead to double figures.

[ElNono]

Richard being Richard with the pussy three

[HarlemHeat37]

Jefferson forcing a 3 when the Cavs had no interior defender in position..looks like he shot it just so he could get a shot up..

Mason being Mason..

[Ice009]

he got fouled. so go chop off your head

i'M GOING TO CHOP YOUR FUCKING HEAD OFF AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS.

GET A NEW SAYING AND STOP REPEATING IT EVERY TIME YOU WANT TO CRY ABOUT SOMETHING.

[Death In June]

Wow, all the points are coming from whoever Mase and Bogans are guarding.

[blkroadrunners]

Damn Matt Bonner...

[TheProfessor]

Bonner bails RJ out...

[HarlemHeat37]

Bonner is showing us the versatile offense tonight..

Mason late on another rotation, Gibson 3..

[superjames1992]

Holy crap Bonner! A running hook!

[Chieflion]

Bonner is fantastic!

[alchemist]

Bonner has more moves than 2010 Duncan :downspin:

[jag]

Richard Jefferson is forcing Matt Bonner into floating jumpers.

[Crookshanks]

Spurs are working so hard - it seems the Cavs are getting easy shots.

[timtonymanu]

Bonner is doing on offense what RJ should be doing.

[ElNono]

Manu!!!

[ShoogarBear]

Sweeeeet fake

[Libri]

Manu 33333

[ElNono]

goddammit jawad

[DPG21920]

Spurs are frantic on offense right now. They need to be steadied.

My man Jawadddddddddddddddddd

[SpurCharger]

our perimeter Defense Is fuckin Garbage tonight.....

[Spurs Brazil]

Fuck

Jawad Williams

Fuck

[Chieflion]

Jawad Williams...

Fuck him!

[timtonymanu]

Fuck Jawad Williams!

Why dont the Spurs have a scrub that does shit like that?

[alchemist]

Leaving the best 3pt shooters in the league open? Kill yo self!

[8FOR!3]

On another note, one of those announcers really suck. He's yelling like he has a problem. What a rah-tard. Who was it the other week that also had a shit announcer? One of our last 4 or 5 away games.

[Ice009]

tHE GREAT BOGANS HAS ALLOWED JAWAD TO PLAY LIKE A SUPERSTAR TONIGHT. give it to Keith who let him get going and get confident.

[DesignatedT]

ofcourse fucking jawan williams. wow

[BanditHiro]

wow can the officiating be anymore one sided.

[ElNono]

scrub going off against us alert... but thats what happens when you let the get in a groove

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs are working so hard - it seems the Cavs are getting easy shots.

Well, a team with LeBron and Shaq is always going to . . . oh, nm.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Are we gonna see more Jawad? :lol

:pctoss

[TheProfessor]

On another note, one of those announcers really suck. He's yelling like he has a problem. What a rah-tard. Who was it the other week that also had a shit announcer? One of our last 4 or 5 away games.
I want to reach through my set and strangle him.

[HarlemHeat37]

Mason misses so many rotations, it's ridiculous..

[urunobili]

Manu had a foot on the line? :pctoss
this is just like the heart braking losses we have had the entire season...

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason, RJ, Bogans, Blair, difficult to know ho sucks more today

[Brazil]

lol at the guys saying with tony out RJ will have more touches... just lol

quite pathetic

bonner is our second best player, bogans deserve to play for Cholet, Mason is good for the D-league and RJ could find a starting job for the nets

[Crookshanks]

On another note, one of those announcers really suck. He's yelling like he has a problem. What a rah-tard. Who was it the other week that also had a shit announcer? One of our last 4 or 5 away games.

It was Memphis - those announcers really sucked

[timtonymanu]

heres where the cavs close the gap and take the lead.

rj with a disappointing night. Bonner is being more aggressive than him.

[Ice009]

Spurs are frantic on offense right now. They need to be steadied.

My man Jawadddddddddddddddddd

Are you a fan of his? Is he actually this good or are the Spurs making him look a lot better than usual?

[Chieflion]

Fuck Jawad Williams!

Why dont the Spurs have a scrub that does shit like that?

Sit your ass down. Pop doesn't like playing them, so you better get used to it /Popapologist rant

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs are working so hard - it seems the Cavs are getting easy shots.

A team with Jawad Williams is always going to get easy shots.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Offense looks very smooth. The defense is lacking though.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Matt Bonner has returned :smokin

[8FOR!3]

I want to reach through my set and strangle him.

THREEEE!!!!! OH MY GAWDDDD!!!1 Jawad..

Yeah, he needs to die soon.

[Warlord23]

Letting unknown scrubs light us up when we're fighting for playoff position. It's like Jawad Williams is the $14 million signing, while RJ looks like a D-league reject

[AnthonyM]

Well, a team with LeBron and Shaq and Jamison is always going to . . . oh, nm.

fify.

[jag]

the hell is a "Jawad"?

[DesignatedT]

where you at jefferson????????????????????????????????????? fucking pos

[Libri]

Jawad's career high is 17 pts.

[j.dizzle]

Cle doesnt have a center in the game so why are they getting wide open looks? Mason is garbage, howe many wide open shots is he gonna miss?

[ShoogarBear]

Holy shit, Mase.

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK Mason
FUCK Mason
FUCK Mason
FUCK MasonFUCK Mason

FUCK Mason
FUCK Mason
FUCK Mason
v
FUCK Mason
FUCK Mason
FUCK Mason
v

[Ice009]

FUCK. Roger Mason Jr. can't hit shit or play D.

[spurspokesman]

ofcourse fucking jawan williams. wow

He's just doing what he's paid to do. He's got some heart also. Only if he can lend it to rj

[Crookshanks]

come on Spurs - you just can't lose this game. NO team will have any respect for the Spurs if we do.

[ShoogarBear]

Holy shit, Mase.

[DPG21920]

Mason, gawd.

[ElNono]

Blair and Mason are useless today

[jag]

Mason is so worthless right now

[TheProfessor]

Fuck mason!

[fotan2]

Jawad Williams is only a spot up shooter. I have no idea how they gave him that much space.

[DesignatedT]

Lol mason.

[ffadicted]

1-7 stop fucking shooting you asshole this is the 4th quarter, not the "find your touch" quarter

[alchemist]

when was Mason's last great 3pt shooting game? I think it was December. :bang

[SpurCharger]

Mason is bricking and why doesnt Blair grab the rebound and kick back out.....

[Nathan Explosion]

Does Mason still need a reason as to why he was on the bench?

[jag]

Richard Jefferson i hate everything about you!

[TheProfessor]

OMG, it's like watching a pick-up game right now...

[DPG21920]

Are you a fan of his? Is he actually this good or are the Spurs making him look a lot better than usual?

:lol, no I was just joking

[Warlord23]

Fuck this 3 point chucking

[AnthonyM]

Mason is so worthless right now

If by "right now" you mean for the whole season then yes...

[WeNeedLength]

Will Jefferson or Mason please stand the fuck UP!?!?!?!?

[ElNono]

Manu!!!

[DPG21920]

Manu is the sickest faker ever.

[ShoogarBear]

LMAO, exact same fake.

[Crookshanks]

STOP shooting 3's! Drive it in - at least if you miss, there's a good chance you'll get fouled. *


*except for Manu :lol

[Libri]

Yes, Manu 3!!

[SpurCharger]

Ahhhhhhhhh mannnnnnnuuuuuuu!!!!!!!

[timtonymanu]

dont put your hands up Mason. You're not doing shit in this game.

[ffadicted]

GINOBILIIII!! d

[Chieflion]

Manu tres. They can't guard him tonight!

[TheProfessor]

Manu. Give that man his extension. He's the only thing keeping us in this game (other than Air Bonner).

[Spurs Brazil]

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

[jag]

Ditka couldn't have stopped Manu tonight

[Nathan Explosion]

Mason has just found a way to get more playing time, be the new Finley.

[ElNono]

Manu is tired though... time to bring TD in and finish this

[urunobili]

it'd be awesome if manu drops 40 in a win :)

[Cant_Be_Faded]

They are giving us wide open threes.

Jefferson HAS to hit that shot.

God I'm sick of seeing him clank open threes.

[DPG21920]

Why can't Malik eat up Mason's minutes? He obviously defends better, and can shoot no worse.

[Spurs Brazil]

How the fuck this piece of shit Mason can get minutes and Malik is on the bench

[Brazil]

stop blaming mason or bogans or the pope blame Greg Pop why is he let these guys playing why ? at this point I miss JV

[murpjf88]

cavs are making it sound like its daunting task to score a measly 5 points against the Spurs defense. Jokes on them.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

:worthy:manu

[DesignatedT]

man , i hope we can get this win. mason and jefferson. where are you guys. just hit 1 shot each. thats all i ask

[BanditHiro]

fuck bogans is coming back in

[ElNono]

I'm afraid it's 'centerpiece' time... :pctoss

[ShoogarBear]

STOP shooting 3's! Drive it in - at least if you miss, there's a good chance you'll get fouled. *


*except for Manu :lol

I would like to see him stop shooting them and driving some, too. They can't win like this.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Would be uber cool if Pop tried something new, like, going Twin Tower and putting Duncan and Ian to finish off the game.

God forbid we try to make them react to us instead of playing reactive basketball all season.

[alchemist]

Manu. Give that man his extension. He's the only thing keeping us in this game (other than Air Bonner).
Will Holt pony up the $$$$$$? Manu want's cash and years.

[DesignatedT]

duncan needs to carry us down the stretch. manu cant do it all.

[Crookshanks]

Coach Pop better take a good, long look at Manu tonight - and just imagine the nightmare if he was wearing another team's uniform! :bang

[ShoogarBear]

I'm afraid it's 'centerpiece' time... :pctoss

http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/images21/BulldogChampsBossWhiteEnglish2.jpg

[DPG21920]

RJ team leading 8 boards.

[ElNono]

Will Holt pony up the $$$$$$? Manu want's cash and years.

and women :lol

[Warlord23]

On a normal team, I'd be screaming for Pop to sit Jefferson and Mason - they just don't have anything going. Of course, that means giving minutes to Bogans, and that would be suicide in a close game. Can't say I envy Pop - I'd be hitting the bottle early and often with these kind of choices.

[DesignatedT]

fuck bogans is coming back in

cant be any worse then mason. 0/7 from 3 pt land.

[j.dizzle]

Sons, when the fuck did Mason turn into Fisher Jr? Holy shit he hit a grip of clutch shots last year, now he looks worse then a d-leaguer on O & D

[Johnny RIngo]

Why can't Malik eat up Mason's minutes? He obviously defends better, and can shoot no worse.

You could say the same for Bogans too.

[AnthonyM]

The funny thing is the people that think the Spurs are better without Parker because Manu can pick up the slack and we have the great George Hill to help with playmaking duties....lol...

Needing Manu to put up 33 points and hit 6 threes in the game while the Cavs not having LBJ, Shaq, or Jamison and to barely be beating the Cavs should show how much we miss Parker

[spurspokesman]

Ditka couldn't have stopped Manu tonight

Perfect time for that. This guy is flat out super. He is calling rcs pockets out right now

[DPG21920]

They are giving us wide open threes.

Jefferson HAS to hit that shot.

God I'm sick of seeing him clank open threes.

:lol you said the Spurs offense is running smooth. :lol

[smeagol]

We ain't going anywhere if Mason and RJ cannot make their shots drop. Even if Manu dresses up as Super-Manu . . .

[HarlemHeat37]

Jawad has had trouble scoring against everybody other than Centerpiece LOL..and of course he got a 3 off a Mason missed rotation, but that's to be expected..

The Spurs have missed 6 tip-ins in this game, it's ridiculous..

[jag]

Would be uber cool if Pop tried something new, like, going Twin Tower and putting Duncan and Ian to finish off the game.

God forbid we try to make them react to us instead of playing reactive basketball all season.

For all that is sacred and holy in this world....Free Ian Mahinmi

[timtonymanu]

damn you Dice and Blair for sucking tonight.

Now we're stuck with small ball.

[Brazil]

RJ 21 min 0-2 what the hell ??? seriously ?

[HarlemHeat37]

Bogans doesn't box out West, and of course he gets the put-back..

[ShoogarBear]

Nice box out, Bulldog.

[ElNono]

Tim... dude...

[vander]

Mason/Blair/RJ/Bogans combined 1-15
:lmao:lmao

[Chieflion]

Duncan, you mad?

[Ice009]

PATHETIC REBOUNDING from Tim and PATHETIC PASS TIM.

FUCK. WHY IS MANU OFF?????????

[DesignatedT]

come on duncan.

[Crookshanks]

damn - come on Spurs

[ffadicted]

*facepalm*

[Brazil]

loss here we come

[timtonymanu]

momentum is in cavs favor. no way we can win now.

[EmantheSpursFan]

I hate these damn nba announcers!!

[ElNono]

Ofcourse Bonner misses now...

[WeNeedLength]

Cavs have momentum.... not looking good.

[jag]

I don't care what anyone says, Mo Williams is the most overhyped scrub in the NBA.

[BanditHiro]

fuck why couldn't it be bogans

[TheProfessor]

Sons, when the fuck did Mason turn into Fisher Jr? Holy shit he hit a grip of clutch shots last year, now he looks worse then a d-leaguer on O & D
Son, don't give him that much credit, at least Fisher can still hit a 3.

[blkroadrunners]

Fuckin Varejao.

[Ice009]

Get manu on the fucking court and get bogans off

[Chieflion]

Bonner draws the charge on Sideshow Bob.

[DesignatedT]

good play bonner.

[ElNono]

good play by the red rocket there

[ShoogarBear]

Bonner pulled a Varejao on Varejao

[Death In June]

We ain't going anywhere if Mason and RJ cannot make their shots drop. Even if Manu dresses up as Super-Manu . . .It's only March...

[Refocus]

NOOOO we need the legend to play.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

ouch

[ElNono]

somebody make a shot

[ShoogarBear]

How did Joey Crawford miss that call? Ass.

[vander]

Mason/Blair/RJ/Bogans combined 1-15
:lmao:lmao

throw in Dyess and it's 3-22 :rollin

[GrandeDavid]

I can't believe Varejao didn't get a tech.

[Brazil]

pathetic

[Chieflion]

It is like the league telling the Cavs, play LeBron, we losing cash!

[ShoogarBear]

Shit Tim.

[Crookshanks]

Spurs have gone ice-cold.

[blkroadrunners]

Hill 3!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill 333333333333333333333333333

[ffadicted]

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilll

[Libri]

Hiiiiiiiillll!!!

[jag]

He's letting it all hang out tonight

[ShoogarBear]

Nice chase down by RJ

[rAm]

I know it's late, but any links to the game feed?

[Crookshanks]

no one besides Manu or Hill can hit a shot tonight. Come on Timmy - get mad and get aggressive

[WeNeedLength]

mcdyess, Jefferson, Mason, go fuck yourselves.

[DesignatedT]

role players missing wide open shots. only reason this game is close

[DPG21920]

RJ beasting on the boards.

[ShoogarBear]

Bad shot.

[Johnny RIngo]

On a normal team, I'd be screaming for Pop to sit Jefferson and Mason - they just don't have anything going. Of course, that means giving minutes to Bogans, and that would be suicide in a close game. Can't say I envy Pop - I'd be hitting the bottle early and often with these kind of choices.

At some point Pop has to take responsibility. He put this team together with Buford and decided to go over the lux tax for a useless crap like Dice/RJ.

[Capt Bringdown]

Dice is terrible, straight-up garbage player.

[ffadicted]

Oh god please don't let us lose to the Scrubaliers

[j.dizzle]

Where is Duncan at? Dude is MIA when Cle doesnt even have a legit big in there.

[Crookshanks]

Spurs are getting tons of good looks - they just can't hit the broad side of a barn tonight

[timtonymanu]

Cavs will take the lead on this possession!

Book it!

[ElNono]

Dice has regressed again... and I don't know why RJ is out there at all

[Brazil]

guys I can't stand anymore watching that shit... first time in my life I don't want to seen the last minutes of a spur game, I'm going to smoke a cigarett :(

[Chieflion]

At least RJ has been rebounding the ball.

[HarlemHeat37]

McDyess and Mason have missed a TON of open shots in this game..Bogans missed 2 of them, but that's to be expected..

[DesignatedT]

jefferson with 1 point off 2 shots. WTF is this. fucking terrible

[jag]

It kinda bothers me that Mason got 25 min of going 1-8 from the field while Hairston sat on the bench.

[Ice009]

MAN Antonio can't hit a shot. Come on Antonio. COME on RJ.

This is the time. The time is now. Let's go. Get it done. Take it and make it.

[ElNono]

Where is Duncan at? Dude is MIA when Cle doesnt even have a legit big in there.

Duncan is being double teamed... and nobody can make a shot outside of Manu and Hill

[Spurs Brazil]

Dice missing that OPEN shot to give us a 5pt lead will fuck this game

[Ice009]

MAN Antonio can't hit a shot. Come on Antonio. COME on RJ.

This is the time. The time is now. Let's go. Get it done. Take it and make it.

[murpjf88]

At least RJ has been rebounding the ball.

who gives a shit

[alchemist]

It's terrible watching Timmy's offense past January, I don't see how he plays basketball past this contract.

[BanditHiro]

Dice has regressed again... and I don't know why RJ is out there at all


rofl you want bogans out there instead of RJ?

[DPG21920]

RJ is doing everything but score. Spurs need his scoring though.

[MB20]

Time for Manu to close this shitty game.
Get him the ball and GTFO of his way.

[nbaman99]

OMG i cant believe how suck Dice is. Him and Mason killing this team.

[Crookshanks]

Where is Duncan at? Dude is MIA when Cle doesnt even have a legit big in there.

Yeah - Timmy hasn't had a really good game in quite awhile. He's really overdue - and now would be a great time for him to decide to make some shots, blocks, whatever...

[romsho]

mcdyess, Jefferson, Mason, go fuck yourselves.

If they were even remotely accurate, this would be an easy win.

[Ice009]

Let's GO SPURS!

[ElNono]

rofl you want bogans out there instead of RJ?

No.. I rather have Bonner at this point

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Richard Jefferson, Roger Mason, and Keith Bogans minutes are the equivalent of putting a fifth grade fat kid out there.

[AnthonyM]

It kinda bothers me that Mason got 25 min of going 1-8 from the field while Hairston sat on the bench.

It's like I said earlier...

Bringing Hairston in for Mason just makes too much sense for Pop to do it...

[Ice009]

Let's GO SPURS keep playing, lets GO.

[TimDunkem]

Where is Duncan at? Dude is MIA when Cle doesnt even have a legit big in there.

No shit...

[Refocus]

I can't help but have a bad feeling for the end of this game.. hopefully it turns out good for us..

[Chieflion]

Take Dice out and put in Bonner, for fuck's sake. Yep, happened.

[alchemist]

Dice missing that OPEN shot to give us a 5pt lead will fuck this game
leaving the best 3pt shooters in the league open = fail

[DesignatedT]

so many wide open shots missed this game. disgusting. lets hope manu has some more heroics left in him

[ShoogarBear]

Joey planning his next throw-out.

[Manu-of-steel]

Defense! cavs down by one

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

manu is running low of fuel, hill and td need to show up,rj and dice too

[DAF86]

Time for Manu to close this shitty game.
Get him the ball and GTFO of his way.

He needs to stop taking jumpers and start going to the hoop though.

[VBM]

God I hate watching games through Gamecast...not having League Pass ftl!

[DPG21920]

Nice manu and fml RJ.

[ShoogarBear]

Focking hell rj

[ElNono]

goddamit richard

[jag]

Richard Jefferson should have been aborted.

[j.dizzle]

jefferson.........

[superjames1992]

Oh dear, Jefferson...

[Crookshanks]

damn RJ - how can you mess that up?

[Libri]

Hill is hurt.

[HarlemHeat37]

Fuck Richard Jefferson..what a POS..dribble the ball you pussy..

Now Hill's injured, great..what a season..

[Chieflion]

RJ, you fucking idiot.

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK Jefferson
FUCK Jefferson
FUCK Jefferson

[Ice009]

RJ come on man. PLEASE RJ. COME ON RJ. COME ON RJ. COME ON RJ.

[Death In June]

Goddamn it.

[ShoogarBear]

RJ just pulled the equivalent of J-Rich's missed dunk

[blkroadrunners]

who gives a shit

:lol

[timtonymanu]

fuck the 09-10 season.

[Johnny RIngo]

RJ is fucking terrible. He must have the best agent on the planet to be getting paid 14 million.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahaha

[Thompson]

Great, now Hill's injured.

[ElNono]

Hill is going to be ok

[Manu-of-steel]

wtf RJ!
