happy bday..

i'm torn :(
<------------


i still want spurs to win tho :D

I like the Knicks as well. But as bad as the Spurs have been playing this year, the New York Knicks have been playing that much worse. We ought to win this by 15+ points. If not then I need to give my Jim Mora playoffs speech.

[xellos88330]

Well, hopefully the Spurs run up the lead to give Hairston and hopefully Mahinmi some extended minutes. Would be nice.

GO SPURS GO!

Oh yea... HAPPY B-DAY!

[austN Spur]

I know the spurs are struggling this season, but where is the Spam can that this site usually has this time of year.

Should beat the knicks. please beat the knicks. i hope we beat the knicks

[Rick18]

Happy birthday mate!

A win to us and a Hornets win over Oklahoma puts us a half game behind the Thunder...

I can dream :D

[sa_kid20]

Happy Birthday man! Hopefully the Spurs don't fuck it up :toast

[Chieflion]

Let's start the Cedric Jackson era with a win.

[NFGIII]

:birthday: dude!

The Spurs need to get another streak going. POs are just around the corner and I would like for them ot at least finish the season out strong.

Get so MO!

[Snaq O'Meal]

Hoping for a double overtime win but I'll accept a triple double from Bogans :downspin:

Perhaps in rebounds, steals and turnovers. Can't involve points or assists, as The Centerpiece of The System must play without the ball.

[Chieflion]

Perhaps in rebounds, steals and turnovers. Can't involve points or assists, as The Centerpiece of The System must play without the ball.

Turnovers? Bah, screw that. Bogans will get 10 blocks as small ball PF.

[Charles Sappa]

Happy Birthday phyzik

You know if Manu played in the starting lineup?

[TJastal]

Happy birthday Phyzik

[Chieflion]

Let us not forget to tune in to the best fake NBA twitter account out there while watching this game.

http://twitter.com/coach_D_Antoni

[TJastal]

I turn on the celtic game and what's the first thing I see? Michael Finley trying to guard Hasheem Thabeet and and getting burned. Grizz crushing the C's right now LOL

[Chieflion]

Michael Finley: Doc, I can play, I can play.

Doc Rivers: Where do you suggest I play you?

Michael Finley: Pop used to play me at backup PF.

Doc Rivers: He is insane, but you will be in as backup C anyway. I don't want Sheed to go out and get himself suspended with a technical.

Michael Finley was torched by Hasheem "I got no post moves" Thabeet.

[Chieflion]

Lots of people are excited that Curry will play tonight, the top 3 being Tim Duncan, DeJuan Blair and the GM of the Utah Jazz. -Fake D'antoni

[DesignatedT]

go spurs go!

[TIMMYD!]

Timmy getting it started with a J!

And then a 33333333333333 by Manu!

[Spurs Brazil]

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

[TIMMYD!]

Tim with a fadeaway!

[Indazone]

T-Mac..I want to see if he's got anything left in the tank!!

[DesignatedT]

what a pass and shoot!

[baseline bum]

Tim on fire early

[TJastal]

Its so nice to not see Bogans in the starting lineup for once

[TIMMYD!]

Tim with 6 in 2 minutes.

[baseline bum]

6 pts for TD

[DesignatedT]

its all duncan early. feeding him every possession

[cnyc3]

[baseline bum]

Nice assist TD

[Refocus]

Good start. :)

[TIMMYD!]

Manu and Tim are crazy on fire!

[Spurs Brazil]

[ffadicted]

[Manudo Flopo]

[TIMMYD!]

Dice FTs 13-4

[TJastal]

McGrady will score 13 points in 35 seconds woooo hooo

You Suck!

Your team is losing by 22 at home LOL

[DesignatedT]

man duncan looks good. just demanding the ball and being aggressive.

[TIMMYD!]

McDyess needs to get better in feeding Tim the ball...

[Chieflion]

Is the centerpiece guarding T-Mac?

[DesignatedT]

good d manu

[DesignatedT]

come on dyess...

[TIMMYD!]

18-10 Spurs

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill 3333333333333333333

[DesignatedT]

there we go. there we go.

[Pentagruel]

Man Manu has really been dominating for a long stretch of games here. I truly doubted he would return to something similar to his old self but I was utterly wrong. He looks phenomenal in every aspect of the game.

[Manudona]

man duncan looks good. just demanding the ball and being aggressive.

Maybe he actually read SpursTalk after his game vs Cleveland :)

[siraulo23]

cmon mason, hit some shots

[TJastal]

Nets up 17-4 on the mavs :wow

rofl

[TJastal]

McGrady schooling the centerpiece

[Spurs Brazil]

Dice dunk!!!!!!!

[Chieflion]

Dice putback!

[Refocus]

There we go dice!

[siraulo23]

wtf dice got some hops?

[Chieflion]

Bogans finally doing something.

[Spurs Brazil]

Bogans 3333333333333333

[TIMMYD!]

Where's RJ?

[TJastal]

lol Mason playing better defense than Bogans and Bogans shooting better than Mason so far

[MB20]

6 points, 6 boards for Dyess in 9 minutes. Good to see.

[DesignatedT]

DYESS AND BOGANS SIGHTING!!!!!!

mason picking up right where he left off

[TJastal]

I could see the knicks signing a guy like Ian this summer, they are in dire need of some interior defense

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

who wish dick not come in

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol knicks fan w/ robinson jersey...

[TJastal]

DYESS AND BOGANS SIGHTING!!!!!!

mason picking up right where he left off

at least he was able to defend McGrady, Bogans was playing matador defense

[siraulo23]

fuck whos gonna create for blair and rj

[ffadicted]

fuck whos gonna create for blair and rj

Work it from inside out with timmy D baby

[siraulo23]

omg mase

[DesignatedT]

wow jefferson. mason hit a fucking shot. even bogans hit one

[Stringer_Bell]

Jefferson rarely completes anything when driving to the basket with people around him. It's like he purposefully slows down hoping to get fouled but he just gets stripped and turnover. BE A MAN RJ!

[TIMMYD!]

RJ needs to be more aware of the shot-clock...

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 31-22 after one

[TIMMYD!]

wow jefferson. mason hit a fucking shot. even bogans hit one

Mason hasn't hit a shot...

[DesignatedT]

fucking mason and jefferson. same old shit with these guys.

[ElNono]

Gino needs to just get the ball at the end there... Mason just can't run anything out there

[timtonymanu]

so mason i thought you said you were gonna shoot better today?

[tothrowed]

Jefferson and mason are doo dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[DesignatedT]

Mason hasn't hit a shot...

yeah i know. i worded that confusingly

[DesignatedT]

come on blair. play d...

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

bonner on chandler, blair on harrington are just fun to watch

[Shastafarian]

Manu's only at +1. His career is sooooooo over.

[DesignatedT]

wow mason. cant make a shot, cant make a pass. this guy is garbage

[DesignatedT]

wow manu sure cut that hair short.

[blkroadrunners]

Bonner 333

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner 33333333333333333

[Chieflion]

RJ has like 5 boards already.

[BanditHiro]

RJ has like 5 boards already.

he is doing everything but scoring for some strange reason

[ElNono]

RJ is playing defense real well, considering he's basically not getting the ball on O.

[TJastal]

wow mason. cant make a shot, cant make a pass. this guy is garbage

3 assists so far for RM

You are garbage.

[Chieflion]

he is doing everything but scoring for some strange reason

Spurs fans wanted him to an all-around guy. By Pop's standards, all-around guy = Keith Bogans.

[DesignatedT]

jefferson has definitely been making a much bigger effort on the boards. i think they might have been trying to release him earlier in the season to try and get him in the open court.

[DesignatedT]

rookie treatment

[TJastal]

the knicks must have the worst interior defense in the entire nba

[Shastafarian]

the knicks must have the worst interior defense in the entire nba

The Raptors are pretty bad too.

[alchemist]

Bonner tries he really does, but his man always scores like he's on prom night.

[TIMMYD!]

I know we're winning but this game just doesn't feel complete...

[TJastal]

The Raptors are pretty bad too.

They at least have Bosh and Bargnani, both 7 footers who played very good defense in the paint against the spurs last time they played.

[siraulo23]

we got no playmaker on the floor right now

[DesignatedT]

jefferson is pathetic

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

ghill is not even close to being a point guard

[TDMVPDPOY]

this team outside of ginoboli and hill is fkn garbage

td should just retire and save himself the embarrassment playing with this dleague roster

[Chieflion]

ghill is not even close to being a point guard

I don't know why people kept telling me he is capable of being a point guard. I just give them the Burger King slogan.

[alchemist]

They at least have Bosh and Bargnani, both 7 footers who played very good defense in the paint against the spurs last time they played.
Pick up any 7ft bums off the street and they'll do fine against the Spurs. Sadly, Timmy doesn't do much damage against anyone anymore.

[Manufan909]

Sucks Manu is the only Spur who can make stuff happen. Hell, no one else can even run the floor.:ihit

[Chieflion]

Bogans with an extremely bad pass. Dice was looking at him like WTF!

[TJastal]

lol that pass could make a blooper highlight reel of stupid passes.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 51-39 at the half

[alchemist]

2 vs. 5

they won't have much left in the 2nd half.

[Manufan909]

Manu!!!!!!!!!!

[BanditHiro]

2 vs. 5

they won't have much left in the 2nd half.

the knicks suck though 2 is enough

[TIMMYD!]

this team outside of ginoboli, tim, and hill is fkn garbage

td should just retire and save himself the embarrassment playing with this dleague roster

fify

[DesignatedT]

duncan and manu carrying us. man the knicks look terrible

[it's me]

2 vs. 5

they won't have much left in the 2nd half.

2 vs 6 ... centerpiece always plays against us.....

[TDMVPDPOY]

duncan and manu carrying us. man the knicks look terrible

they always been terrible man

[alchemist]

2 vs 6 ... centerpiece always plays against us.....
:lol

[siraulo23]

fuck, we really need a playmaker other than manu

Hill needs to step up, be aggressive and penetrate

[Russ]

Vote for the Spurs in the MSG poll. Link below:

http://www.msg.com/knicks/

[DesignatedT]

fuck, we really need a playmaker other than manu

Hill needs to step up, be aggressive and penetrate

this has been the problem all year. no playmakers.... even when we had tony manu was not himself until 2 weeks ago... and tony has been banged up in and out all year....

if them two would be healthy it would make things a whole lot easier. and those 3 games before tony broke his hand, you could see how much easier it was.

[Spurs Brazil]

OMG Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu to Bogans 3333333

[DesignatedT]

manu in between the legs!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Bogans 33333

[siraulo23]

outside of manu, this has gotta be one of the most boring game

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Anybody else worried that we aren't blowing this shit Knicks team out?? They're playing like crap and we're only winning by 10...

[Spurs Brazil]

Great pass Dice

[TJastal]

Bogans ought to hit those 3's, they aren't even guarding him out there.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu show!!!!!!

[DesignatedT]

outside of manu, this has gotta be one of the most boring game

then turn it off

[it's me]

I'm confused maybe he actually is the centerpiece??? lol

[DesignatedT]

good shooting by bogans. knock down those wide open threes

[Manudona]

Manu went cold with the shooting

[phxspurfan]

So many airballs from one team.

[siraulo23]

OMG mason

[Spurs Brazil]

[DesignatedT]

[Chieflion]

Mason, you fuckstick. 5 second inbounds violation.

[siraulo23]

[Chieflion]

And then Mason turns the ball over with a backcourt violation.

[Fpoonsie]

My God. Mase has gone post-season on us EARLY this year.

[Spurs Brazil]

And Mason fucked another play

SIT THIS PIECE OF SHIT

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

mason u fuck can't pass the fucking ball, left alone shooting it

[phxspurfan]

They need to get more shots for Hill. I need the fantasy points.

[Juanobili]

He's trying to fuck the Spurs over since they didn't trade him lol

[DesignatedT]

mason is pathetic. cant do shit

[ElNono]

Mason making the Knicks defense look like Utah's...

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

[DPG21920]

[siraulo23]

[ElNono]

Thank god the Knicks suck

[DesignatedT]

[Behrooz24]

[ElNono]

Come on Manu...

[siraulo23]

when was our last FG?

[DesignatedT]

wow mason and jefferson a combined 0 points

[DPG21920]

Smart play by RJ. However, it is unacceptable that TP goes down and RJ has two games with a combined 5 shots and 3 points.

The guy needs to force the issue.

[siraulo23]

thank god, we're playing the knicks that cant hit shots


Thank god the Knicks suck


thank god the knicks suck.

:lol

[TIMMYD!]

We should have put this away by now.

[siraulo23]

Lmao!!!!!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

RJ needs to force bad shots and turnovers.

fify

[cnyc3]

Good job mase

[TIMMYD!]

Mason is just terrible.

And now he knows why he doesn't get playing time.

[ffadicted]

lol have we seriously not scored with manu out of the game

[Spurs Brazil]

Since Mason went in we can't score

FUCK MASON

[Chieflion]

Goddamn, can't buy a basket.

[DPG21920]

Mason is so bad at creating. No one can create or score against the Knicks.

[phxspurfan]

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8UFJKqNl5JI/S5hcJY0OGfI/AAAAAAAACrk/vq7YZkjQZXw/s576/fd5.JPG :lol nice...

yeah that cap was from tonight's game

[ElNono]

What's taking so long Pop? Just sit Mason's ass!

[siraulo23]

Get mason out of there, put malik, or cedric something

[Doe]

LMAO @ that last play

[Juanobili]

thank god mason was trad-

oh wait

[carina_gino20]

Crap. We can't even blow out the Knicks. And if RJ can't get his act together against like this, well...

[alchemist]

:downspin: double overtime here we come

[ElNono]

Fucking centerpiece

[Duncan2177]

YAWN this game is making me sleepy.

[dbestpro]

RMJ playing for a contract......................................... In the d league.

[TIMMYD!]

Don't like where this is heading.

[DPG21920]

5:30 scoring drought.

[DesignatedT]

mason makes everyone on the court worse. even manu gets worse when mason is out there with him.

[Spurs Brazil]

The Centerpiece

And the Piece of SHIT

http://i.cdn.turner.com/nba/nba/media/act_roger_mason.jpg

[Ice009]

Bogans is the biggest fucking piece of shit I have seen. Well it's a tie between him and RJ.

[alchemist]

RJ playing Defense!!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

OMFG Jefferson!!!!!

[TIMMYD!]

Dam, Jefferson with a monster block!!!!!!!!

[DPG21920]

Why is RJ not taking any damn shots? He is doing nothing on offense. His rebounding and energy on defense have been very good, but he is just a ghost on offense.

[slick'81]

get that weak shit outta here

[ElNono]

Denied!!!

[dbestpro]

Blair has hit the rookie wall.

[Manudona]

Jefferson!!

[siraulo23]

whoooo, an exciting play commited not by manu

[DesignatedT]

centerpiece is better than mason. how he can still get heat and people still praise mason is beyond me.

lmao rj is pissed. he knows he sucks

[alchemist]

Bogans is the biggest fucking piece of shit I have seen. Well it's a tie between him and RJ.
Centerpiece is starting to hit the Bowen corner shot

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 67-60 after the 3rd

[easy7]

Damn!!!

[DesignatedT]

damnit new jersey gave the game back to dallas lol

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

YAWN this game is making me sleepy.

this game is as boring as the one that i went at MSG earlier the season...lets hope for a better finish....OT here it comes :wakeup

[Fpoonsie]

Why is RJ not taking any damn shots? He is doing nothing on offense. His rebounding and energy on defense have been very good, but he is just a ghost on offense.

I think, with RJ, you're gonna get one or the other at at time (or "per game"), but not both.

[Ice009]

Yes RJ you crazy fucker! ;). Great block.

[ElNono]

Hill has been very quiet on offense too since the first quarter...
We need more people to step up on offense... But for the love of everything that's holy sit down Mason right now

[Ice009]

Centerpiece is starting to hit the Bowen corner shot

Tonight he has hit a few, but will he give us 4 bagels in a row after tonight?

[boutons_deux]

Spurs flat out suck. What garbage basketball.

a 16 pt, 8 TOs qtr @ATT against the frickin Knickerbockers? :lol

[siraulo23]

ohhh malik

[DPG21920]

Thank goodness Malik is in.

[ohmwrecker]

Why is RJ not taking any damn shots? He is doing nothing on offense. His rebounding and energy on defense have been very good, but he is just a ghost on offense.

If he could put it all together on a consistent basis, he would be awesome for us. So much potential.

[DesignatedT]

i rather have cedric jackson out there before mason

[TJastal]

The stupidity in this forum is staggering.

Roger Mason is not a creator he is a spot up shooter. Tossing him the ball with 5 seconds left on the shot clock is going to end in a turnover almost every time.

This team needs a goto guy who can create offense, Jefferson should have been that guy but hasn't.

[slick'81]

bbb bonner

[Chieflion]

Bonner got fouled on the 3 point shot.

[Spurs Brazil]

Malik in for the piece of shit

Why take that long Pop?

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

yes malik is in :elephant

[cnyc3]

hairston sighting

[slick'81]

come the fck on

I could let his inability to facilitate slide if he could actually hit an open shot with plenty of time on the clock, which he's had NUMEROUS times this game.

[alchemist]

Hill can't penetrate the defense for shit, kid needs basketball viagra.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol douglas owning ghill the defensive stopper

[slick'81]

keep up the hustle dejuan

[Doe]

Damn Hill has been getting burned badly the last few games on D.
