[Doe]

Nice aggressive move RJ

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes RJ!

[Chieflion]

LOL Kobe's defense. RJ couldn't drive by anybody this season.

[Killakobe81]

Dumb foul by Pau ..kobe let him freaking shoot ...
STOP running out hard on nonshooters like RJ chase off Manu Mason and Bonner

[CFH]

4 point play for RJ there. :lol

[TampaDude]

RJ with the 4-point play!!! :lol

[TIMMYD!]

RJ with 4 points on the same play.

[Libri]

Two very nice plays by RJ.

[jimo2305]

i turned on the game and saw some dudes in spurs jerseys and they're beating the lakers..

lol what's going on?

where's the 2010 spurs at?

[hitmanyr2k]

Tim Duncan just rivaled Bogans for worst pass of the game.

[ShoogarBear]

WTF, Tim.

Taking passing lessons from Bogans.

[CFH]

Dammit RJ...

[Libri]

mess up

[Killakobe81]

Laker sneed to board better

[TIMMYD!]

Fuck, they've come out hitting all three's.

[Killakobe81]

artest rising to the challenge

[Spurs Brazil]

Fuck, 2 stupid mistakes

[CFH]

2 TO's in a row...

[Libri]

Dammit, they need to focus.

[DPG21920]

Spurs playing poorly and the Lakers keep hitting 3's.

[alchemist]

g'damn it RJ

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

oh my lord...

[DPG21920]

:lol Kobe on that shot.

[hitmanyr2k]

And Kobe hit the ground before he got that pass off lol. Should have been a walk.

[CFH]

Ugly shot by Duncan

[PakiDan]

3 turnovers in 3rd... uggh

[ffadicted]

fuuuck

[Refocus]

wow im fucking cringing everytime timmy has the ball..

[TampaDude]

Ah...yet another 3rd quarter for the Spurs...

[Killakobe81]

good offense keep trappingthe lakers ...

[Libri]

Poor defensive rotations by the Spurs.

[TJastal]

Get Roger in there quick Pop this team is flat offensively

[alchemist]

d is awful, wtf happened?

[CFH]

This is not a good 3rd quarter start.

[Killakobe81]

Pau has been shitty on the FT line lately

[jimo2305]

luke walton.. lookin' profesh..

[TIMMYD!]

Looks like it's going to be one of those 3rd quarters...

[BanditHiro]

brick brick brick fuck

[Killakobe81]

Manu with the flop nice job

[VBM]

Timmy...stop sucking...now

[ffadicted]

I say you What's cooler then cool? Ice cold Spurs

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu tres!!!

[CFH]

Manu tres!!!

[DesignatedT]

manu tres

[Libri]

Manu 3

[alchemist]

huge 3!

[TampaDude]

Manu tres!!!

[Killakobe81]

Flop that manu

[Chieflion]

Luke Walton taking notes. He is gonna be a good coach someday.

[DJ Mbenga]

5 point switch thanks to the flop

[jimo2305]

batmanu to the rescue ;)

[Killakobe81]

it's all good ... we finally are playing ...

[RedsLakers24]

5 point switch thanks to the flop

its part of the game, fisher does this shit everytime as well

[alchemist]

the O is pathetic, the scrambling on D is worse....hope they settle the F down.

[Libri]

keep moving the ball

[carina_gino20]

why is manu on kobe...

[Killakobe81]

a loss here will hurt the Spurs big time but i still say Spurs by 6 ...we will see. They are playing harder ...

[jimo2305]

lol mbenga.. how about 'we lose.. thanks to the flop'?

[Dex]

Either Tim or Jefferson needs to wake up, or the Spurs are gonna need another hero for this half.

[TJastal]

5 point switch thanks to the flop

hardly a flop, Gasol was still moving when they collided and pretty much leveled him

Van Gundy needs glasses too

[DJ Mbenga]

why is manu on kobe...

pop hates jefferson so much he doesnt even want him close to kobe

[Killakobe81]

Fisher does flop but no one does it well as verejao though manu is close

[jimo2305]

lol where's craig sager

[Killakobe81]

how does RJ maintain focus with his lover so close dressed in his Sunday's best?

[024]

duncan needs to wake the fuck up on the offensive end. Ginobili cant do it all.

[CFH]

Drive the damn ball, quitting taking jumpshots...

[ffadicted]

Jesus fuck Tim can't do anything right

[CFH]

quit*

[qiuyizeng]

damn duncan.so passive!

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[CFH]

Manu with the fadeway

[TampaDude]

Manu going nuts...

[jimo2305]

manu does a move like that guy's avatar on here lol...

[DesignatedT]

here comes the bulldog

[Libri]

Fade away jumper by Manu. There is no way to defend that.

[Spurs Brazil]

Dice is damn HORRIBLE

[Capt Bringdown]

Typical Spurs - With Bynum out and softy-soft Gasol guarding the paint, the Spurs sit outside and jack 3's.

[Behrooz24]

lol spurs getting scared

[Libri]

Damn

[Dex]

Tim never just catches and goes anymore. He always hesitates with the ball.

Tim's offense is always better when he's in attack mode.

[TJastal]

Fisher does flop but no one does it well as verejao though manu is close

lol Fisher is by far the king of flopping among active players and probably #1 of all time.

And Fisher STILL will get his patented flop called in critical situations while the refs I've noticed this year have already stopped giving Varajao the benefit of the doubt on charge calls

[ffadicted]

Jesus fuck..... what a joke

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

kome having fun

[CFH]

Ball don't lie.

[DPG21920]

So lucky.

[itzsoweezee]

what a fucking bullshit call

[DesignatedT]

god rj. you are p-a-t-h-e-t-i-c

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Where the hell was the foul???

[TampaDude]

Manu going nuts!!!

[Chieflion]

Damn it, they caught up.

[ezau]

Manu is a motherfucker. Where the fuck is Tim? Why is he so scared of going up against a pussy like Gasol?

[alchemist]

wow just give this man his money

[Libri]

It's up to Manu to do everything.

[jimo2305]

He is at TNT!

oh yeah dats right :D

[suitedkings]

Get RJ out of the game. i'd rather the spurs play 4 on 5.

[Spurs Brazil]

fuck refs

[TDfan2007]

Manu is bailing this team out.

[BanditHiro]

BAIL out

[HarlemHeat37]

Typical Spurs - With Bynum out and softy-soft Gasol guarding the paint, the Spurs sit outside and jack 3's.

I agree they should attack more, but they're getting good looks from 3s and the Lakers D is actually better with Bynum off the floor..

[RedsLakers24]

haha that wasnt a foul, I guess the refs are rooting for the lakers

[itzsoweezee]

these refs are just out of control. fucking a. lakers getting homecooking on the fucking road.

[Spurminator]

Wtf

[DPG21920]

No foul for Manu, then they call a what should have been a jump ball a foul? Crofl.

[Fundamental]

Artest sure is full of himself, he belongs in LA.

[CFH]

Now Manu gets the call.

[RedsLakers24]

i guess that was a make up call on artest

[Shastafarian]

lol Mason back in. Pop's rotations are :tu

[CFH]

Bonner with the floater.

[TampaDude]

Red Rocket!!!

[HarlemHeat37]

The RJ foul on Artest was a good call, Jefferson undercut him..

The others were horrible though..Manu should have drew a foul there and Artest received a phantom call for one of his slow-motion ugly drives..

[alchemist]

extension for Bonner!

[Libri]

Bonner floater

[NRHector]

Guess what people her come the refs to make a come back

[Spurs Brazil]

good D

[jimo2305]

where's tim duncan? did he retire?

[Killakobe81]

BS call that can be called 20x a game

[superjames1992]

LOL, did we really just see a Bonner-Duncan pick-and-roll? But it worked! :)

[itzsoweezee]

good D. like the aggressive double teaming.

[Fermixalot]

I'm no basketball expert, but I think Matt Bonner just ran a pick and roll with Tim Duncan.


It was terrifying.

[alchemist]

this is suicide basketball (trying to double Kobe at the top)

[TampaDude]

C'mon, refs...you gotta call a foul on that!

[DesignatedT]

damn artest just picked manu clean.

[DPG21920]

Good d by Artest there.

[RedsLakers24]

What?? were was the foul?

[TDfan2007]

Artest is shitting all over us right now.

[Killakobe81]

artest again ...

[BanditHiro]

he grabbed his arm there

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

its gonna be tough once manu take a seat

[Refocus]

Can we get some fucking help for Manu!?

[Capt Bringdown]

Artest playing well for the Lakers, so many forum "experts" said it couldn't happen.

[jimo2305]

ok mason.. come on dont shame me

[Killakobe81]

Ron ron!!

[DPG21920]

:lol Artest is like a WWE character.

[myhc]

wow duncan is playing tonight!

[ffadicted]

We're losing control of this game.... our offense is DEAD, our defense is WEAK

[DesignatedT]

dont pass that duncan.

[jimo2305]

ball to mason.. c'mon 3 pter

[angelbelow]

Wow owned by gasol

[Spurs Brazil]

fuck

[TampaDude]

WTF was that, guys???

[Killakobe81]

LOL Pau swatting Tim

[Libri]

Hate to see that.

[duncan228]

:(

[jimo2305]

.. or not..

[ffadicted]

Tim Duncan is just plain being embarassed these past few games

[ShoogarBear]

Okay, there is something wrong with Duncan.

[itzsoweezee]

what the fuck kind of play was that? what the hell are they thinking with 3 seconds on the clock?

[superjames1992]

Ouch, Gasol just bitch-slapped Duncan.

[alchemist]

that can only fire up Timmy (I honestly hope so)

[Fermixalot]

Actually, that was more terrifying....

[CFH]

Tim still playing ugly, come on...

[HarlemHeat37]

It sucks that the Spurs fear Kobe so much..I understand he has a great history against us, but other teams just play him straight and let the others beat you..even if Kobe is playing well, you want him to take a lot of shots, you don't want him to play smart, team basketball..

Double-teaming him instantly is a stupid strategy..

[RedsLakers24]

Duncan should have pump fake

[carina_gino20]

I hope that wakes up Tim. He needs to get it going with Manu sitting down.

[boutons_deux]

Is Tim done? He's got nothing

[Juanobili]

:(

[Fermixalot]

:(


:depressed

[NRHector]

Jesus Tim is playing like shit

[bbarry]

what the fuck kind of play was that? what the hell are they thinking with 3 seconds on the clock?

I was thinking the same thing! Tim held the ball for like 1-2 seconds then decides to to try and shoot it over Gasol? That was fucking stupid. Easy block for Gasol.

[Spurs Brazil]

We need to find a way to finish strong with Manu on the bench

[tothrowed]

daeg i think we need to take timmy out

[HarlemHeat37]

Let's see how Duncan responds..if he can't, it's the same story as last year, the knees are shot..

[itzsoweezee]

someone on the spurs besides manu needs to score.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We're losing control of this game.... our offense is DEAD, our defense is WEAK

Apparently, we are still a contender though. :tu

[RedRaider]

WTF is Timmy doing out there???

[myhc]

timmy playing hot potato tonight. he looks absolutely beat.

[duncan228]

Okay, there is something wrong with Duncan.

I'm starting to think so. He must be hurt, he brings it this time of year...if he can. :(

[Allanon]

B2B game for Duncan, it happens.

nvm, I thought Spurs played yesterday.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

where is the hill from the first half?

[jimo2305]

i wonder how many pts tim has so far

[Killakobe81]

Kobe is being neutralized ... but you guys let others get involved ...

[NRHector]

Tim's scared of Gasol and it goes back since last season

[DPG21920]

B2B game for Duncan, it happens.

Que?

[smrattler]

Where is Blair?

[Duncan2177]

WAKE UP TIM :bang

[ElNono]

With this TD we're gonna get rickrolled in the 4th...

[ezau]

Duncan looks lethargic out there. Why does Gasol own him so much when they play against each other?

[TJastal]

Okay, there is something wrong with Duncan.

It's easy to see what Duncan's problem is. Ratliff was let go and now he has Matt Bonner helping as his fellow game closer getting 30 minutes a night

[Allanon]

Pop actually calls Hill "Georgie"? Haha

[RedsLakers24]

where is the hill from the first half?

Im watching the game in KCAL 9 and the Laker players said they were goin to guard him more

[drazo]

lakers are horrible this year. they wont win championship no way.. im glad that spurs are playing better i think that we can easy win the western conference, but if we play cleveland in finals they are just 2 good this year...

[tim_duncan_fan]

The only problem with Duncan is that he is intimidated. He's had these little stretches each season since '04 when he loses confidence in his game for a while and just throws up half-assed, weak, scared shots. It's annoying as hell. It's the part of his personality I hate.

[jdev82]

I'm starting to think so. He must be hurt, he brings it this time of year...if he can. :(

hes seemed almost lazy to me the past several games, he could be saving what he has for the playoffs, or something could be wrong. the former is more likely.

[duncan228]

i wonder how many pts tim has so far

6

[Shastafarian]

I wonder what Blair did to get into the doghouse.

[smrattler]

There goes our lead...

[Libri]

:bang

[jimo2305]

tied up.. O.o

[DPG21920]

LA being rewarded for every bad shot and possession.

[angelbelow]

Fuck

[ffadicted]

Right in Bogans face, what the fcuk

[Spurs Brazil]

fuck rebs

[CFH]

So sloppy, good lord...

[Libri]

Lakers are getting open looks.

[DPG21920]

Great defense Keith.

[ShoogarBear]

Now they are just forcing up shots.

And fucking Shannon Brown is owning them.

[TampaDude]

No D at all...

[Shastafarian]

:lol at Pop

[RedsLakers24]

fucking Lamar

[TampaDude]

Thanks, Lamar!!! :lol

[itzsoweezee]

san antonio fans are fucking pathetic. sounds like there are more laker fans than spur fans in the arena.

pathetic.

[DesignatedT]

fuckin a. i dont like the way this is going.

[jimo2305]

three point playyyy

[HarlemHeat37]

Horrible call against Odom, wow..

[Death In June]

It's a good thing pop is making expert use of his offensive juggernaut in matt bonner, and defensive centerpiece bogans. Nevermind that Blair has outrebounded and outscored bonner in less minutes with a much better shooting percentage.

[qiuyizeng]

duncan is disappointed

[ShoogarBear]

Weak foul call on Odom.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Lucky bail out there. Hand is part of the ball.

[Amarelooms]

lol at the refs...there was no foul :elephant

[Fermixalot]

The Spurs are getting the shitty calls though, because that was not a foul

[DPG21920]

Lakers bricking some bad shots and some open ones and getting long boards and good bounces, then hitting the second 3.

[KuntryDude]

and Gino still sits......

[Killakobe81]

horrible call 4th foul no foul the refs are so full of shit ball was out ...

But of course the refs are aginst the Spurs

[Chieflion]

Centerpiece doesn't know our defensive schemes.

[Shastafarian]

"Shit! I forgot you played for us. 45 get in the game! I hope no one notices..."

[jimo2305]

ok 2 point play

[DPG21920]

Bad call.

[TampaDude]

I wonder what Blair did to get into the doghouse.

Yeah, really...okay, he's in now...

[angelbelow]

Nice mase..

[Hemotivo]

what's up with the fanbase in the stadium???

[Libri]

san antonio fans are fucking pathetic. sounds like there are more laker fans than spur fans in the arena.

pathetic.

It's a sad spectacle.

[DJ Mbenga]

the refs and lakers momentum dont mix well

[angelbelow]

wow odom for 3

[Libri]

another Laker 3

[DubMcDub]

It seems like the Spurs totally dominated the entire first half, yet here they are down 3.

[DPG21920]

How can LA hit these 3's and the Spurs brick wide open ones with better shooters?

[alchemist]

now they all have their confidence going, this will be a brutal 4th

[TJastal]

Lucky bail out there. Hand is part of the ball.

hand contact is called all the time, esp if your name is Lebron or Kobe or Durant

[Juanobili]

Get the lid off that rimmmmm

[jimo2305]

blair.. :(

[angelbelow]

good rebound but blair has to be smarter... all in due time hopefully.

[deadpool]

Damn it blair reset!!!!

[TampaDude]

Ball don't lie...ez shit ain't fallin' tonight...

[KuntryDude]

falling apart....

[DPG21920]

Blair, with a stupid, stupid play.

[Fermixalot]

Blair does not have to put it back up every time.

[smrattler]

Tim has shit tonight offensively, I will be shocked the next time he makes a shot.

[DesignatedT]

this team misses parker so fucking much. manu is seriously the only one that can create.

[itzsoweezee]

boner fucking up again

[jimo2305]

it was a good shot by mason.. he just clanged it..

2 years ago.. mason would drill the mess outta that.. :(

[angelbelow]

Lol jvg.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

pop needs to sit tim dumbass the fuck down!!

Dumbasses like you need to show some proper fucking respect for a HoFer.

Tim is having a poor game - that doesn't mean it's okay to ridicule him.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

well at least it is the 3rd quarter...

[ffadicted]

What a shitass fucking quarter

[Allanon]

Great play by Klomar but he definitely went too early. Hope the Spurs don't make 'em pay

[alchemist]

Mason just missing the shots he's supposed to miss.

[WeNeedLength]

Spurs are done. Lakers making all their 3s. Fucking disappointing....

[01Snake]

Way to go Mason

[CFH]

Typical 3rd quarter. I don't like our chances in this one...

[DPG21920]

Spurs took LA's best punch. They were raining 3's and they are only down 5. Mason misses a great look. Damn. Unreal LA hitting shots, Spurs bricking.
