Game Blog :: Rockets vs. Spurs :: March 31

[Mavs<Spurs]

Timmy was owning Chuck Hayes. People wanted to argue with me before, but as Sean was pointing out, Chuck Hayes, as good a defender as he is, just doesn't have the length to guard Timmy on the low block.

We need to rebound better, slow down Aaron Brooks...

[cnyc3]

[blkroadrunners]

LOL RC: "Tiago is the next David Robinson or Tim Duncan."

[DesignatedT]

I like it, Tiago here next year

is that what he said? im stuck watchin this houston broadcast.

[Chieflion]

Tiago Splitter wouldn't come to the Spurs because R.C Buford thinks he plays like Anderson Varejao.

[FeZZy]

scola complains just like manu awww

[Fpoonsie]

What's Scola's line look like so far?

[ffadicted]

is that what he said? im stuck watchin this houston broadcast.

Yup, he says the plan is to have Tiago as part of the team next year, hopes he can get a good deal going for all parties involved, and liked him to a anderson varejao role in cleveland

[FeZZy]

nice hill

[Doe]

Nice work Hill, veteran move

[siraulo23]

duncan is moving really well today~

[CFH]

Hill hits all 3 ft's Spurs with their first double digit lead of the game.

[DesignatedT]

[TIMMYD!]

What's Scola's line look like so far?

11 pts, 5 rbds

[tp2021]

Antonio left his knees in Denver and his heart in Detroit.

[DesignatedT]

Yup, he says the plan is to have Tiago as part of the team next year, hopes he can get a good deal going for all parties involved, and liked him to a anderson varejao role in cleveland

i sure hope so

[FeZZy]

What's Scola's line look like so far?
11 and 5

[DesignatedT]

:lol

[DesignatedT]

hairston and 1!

[siraulo23]

holy shit malik and !!!!!!!

[EVAY]

LOL RC: "Tiago is the next David Robinson or Tim Duncan."

I thought I heard Buford say that 'everybody thinks he's gonna be the next David or Tim, but I think he's more like an Anderson Varajao for Cleveland.

[timtonymanu]

yes! I thought Malik was gonna get an offensive foul there.

[FeZZy]

Give me some THCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

[Spurs Brazil]

Malik and one!

[blkroadrunners]

Malik showin some O.

[DesignatedT]

[Fpoonsie]

Fuuuuck Richard. That was gonna be AWEsome.

Dammit...dammit...dammit.

[FeZZy]

Dice J!

[CFH]

Has Dice played this whole quarter???

[timtonymanu]

lately the spurs have been doing great in the 3rd except against LA and NJ (nightmares).

[Fpoonsie]

Longest. In-Game. Interview....Ever.

[blkroadrunners]

I thought I heard Buford say that 'everybody thinks he's gonna be the next David or Tim, but I think he's more like an Anderson Varajao for Cleveland.

:lol Something like that. I see him better than Varejao, especially offensively, probably more in the line of Andres Biedrins or Marc Gasol.

[FeZZy]

dude that would of been such a sick gif if it would gone right RJ TO MALIK ALLEY OOP!

[DesignatedT]

dude that would of been such a sick gif if it would gone right RJ TO MALIK ALLEY OOP!

[DesignatedT]

Grizzlies 84
Mavs 75

6 minutes left.

[blkroadrunners]

dude that would of been such a sick gif if it would gone right RJ TO MALIK ALLEY OOP!

[TIMMYD!]

You and yalls GIFs :rolleyes

Gonzo?

[Death In June]

Just turned the game on. Great to see Tim with an efficient stat line.

[FeZZy]

nice hustle by hill

[DesignatedT]

Gonzo?

:lol

[TIMMYD!]

Did someone say "thank you" when Hairston goaltended?

:lol

[Fpoonsie]

Why would we WANT to get outta the 8 seed? I'd MUCH rather play the Lakers than the Mavs.

[DesignatedT]

RJ being aggressive.... I LIKE!!!

[siraulo23]

that would have been nastyyyyyyy

[TIMMYD!]

Fuck!!!!!!!!!!

That RJ dunk would've been sick!!!!!!!!!!

[ffadicted]

Jefferson has to stop doing that, just lay that shit in for a 3 point play man

[timtonymanu]

man i was hoping for an rj highlight.

[Fpoonsie]

Damn. Bunch a near-miss prick tease highlights.

[FeZZy]

so close by RJ would of been nasty

[Spurs Brazil]

good job RJ

[alchemist]

RJ jumped a little to far back, otherwise that's a top 10 dunk of the year.

[CFH]

Damn, wish Jefferson would've gotten that dunk.

[DesignatedT]

Why would we WANT to get outta the 8 seed? I'd MUCH rather play the Lakers than the Mavs.

utah or phoenix are more than capable of ending up at the 2.

not to mention the mavs are down 11 to memphis at the moment with 4 minutes left in the game...

[CFH]

Dice with the block.

[jestersmash]

mother fucking blair on the glass

[Manu-of-steel]

Good job for the spurs so far.

[Fpoonsie]

utah or phoenix are more than capable of ending up at the 2.

not to mention the mavs are down 11 to memphis at the moment with 4 minutes left in the game...

Hmmm...as long as we avoid DAL, I'm content.

[FeZZy]

"Hey kenny what type of party is this?" "Block Party!" "Who's invited?" "JERMAINE TAYLOR!

[Obstructed_View]

utah or phoenix are more than capable of ending up at the 2.

not to mention the mavs are down 11 to memphis at the moment with 4 minutes left in the game...

And because of all the possibilities, the Spurs should just worry about playing their best ball once the playoffs start, and not overthink matchups IMO. If they dictate to their opponent, they have a chance against anybody, if they try to get cute and get away from what they do well, they'll get bounced no matter who they face.

[TIMMYD!]

Temple with a great block!

Man, tonight we've seen so many good ones!

[FeZZy]

"hey kenny what type of party is this?" "block party!" "who's invited?" "jermaine taylor!
again!

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 14 after the 3rd

[blkroadrunners]

Gonzo?

Naw. For reals though, this has been truely a GIF-worthy season, imo. A lot of great plays this year, especially by Manu, Blair, and GHill.

[DesignatedT]

The goal is to get as high as possible... the 6th is still very much in reach and you never know if your going to face a 7 or 8 later in the playoffs.. give yourself any kind of chance of getting homecourt.

[CFH]

Up 14 going into the 4th, hopefully Manu and Duncan won't have to come off the bench.

[FeZZy]

I think is clear to say that we have this under control i wanna see the O.Gee.

[ShoogarBear]

These assholes lost to the Nets? WTF.

[Fpoonsie]

You're obviously right.

It's just, given my current locale, I'd rather get ousted by ANYBODY but DAL...

[FeZZy]

4th Q time

[TIMMYD!]

So, I guess I lost those 30,000 I put on the bet?

:depressed

[FeZZy]

Manu!

[TD 21]

It's probably been talked about but I'm not searching all the pages...

- Buford tried to temper expectations about Splitter, essentially saying he's not the next Robinson or Duncan

- Compared Splitter to Varejao

- Said they're trying to get him to come over this summer, the timing is right

Not exactly breaking news.

[TIMMYD!]

Hairston dunk!

[DesignatedT]

nice! manu to hairston!!!

[CFH]

Hairston with the dunk. :D

[siraulo23]

thc dunk!

[FeZZy]

HAIRSTON! nice

[DesignatedT]

Is Alonzo Gee dressed tonight? Id like to see what he can do out there

[FeZZy]

Is Alonzo Gee dressed tonight? Id like to see what he can do out there

[jestersmash]

ginobili's pass to hairston was arguably even more impressive than the dunk itself. how does he do that..

best not to ask questions and just relish the results i suppose

[FeZZy]

fuck you luis

[CFH]

Gotta love giving up second chance points...

[FeZZy]

rookie mistake..silly

[lefty]

Is Alonzo Gee dressed tonight? Id like to see what he can do out there
Jefferson tried to undress Alonzo because he thought his last name was Glee

[Shastafarian]

Not sure why Mason plays.

[FeZZy]

im losing all my vbookie cash tonight...

[alchemist]

refs keeping these guys in it.

[DesignatedT]

come on guys. stay aggressive. dont let them back in this shit

[TD 21]

This team just can't help themselves, it's got to be a game. Fucking end it and get the key players off their feet early.

Pop needs to stop playing Temple. I know Bogans and Mason are banged up, but still.

[FeZZy]

too many passes

[TIMMYD!]

Tim better not have to get back into this game... or I'll have to kill some motherfuckers.

[Spurs Brazil]

fuck

[Shastafarian]

:rollin that's a foul?

[FeZZy]

fuck lowry! atleast scola is inching closer to 27

[DesignatedT]

fuck guys. come on. stop being so fucking lazy. all these new young players. cant play for shit

[CFH]

Just can't hold a lead and an and 1??? Eh...

[blkroadrunners]

Houston won't die.

[BanditHiro]

wtf rockets you are not making the playoffs just lay down and get a better draft pick

[FeZZy]

Tim better not have to get back into this game... or I'll have to kill some motherfuckers.
:lol:lol

[DesignatedT]

Mavericks 90
Grizzlies 90

17 seconds.. memphis' ball.

[FeZZy]

[DesignatedT]

[FeZZy]

fuck tim.

[TD 21]

Mavericks special...get outplayed the entire game, make a run late, somehow eke out a victory, have people think they're a title contender.

Why does Pop always match other teams? Keep Blair in with Duncan and pound these fucking midgets down low and on the glass.

[DesignatedT]

manu tres

[CFH]

Manu tressssssssssssssss

[Russ]

Memphis and Dallas --- OT!!!!

[blkroadrunners]

mavericks 90

Bad play by Memphis. Horrible shot by Mayo.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu tres!!!!!!!

[FeZZy]

[alchemist]

[DesignatedT]

hairston fucked that possession up. put the starters back in.

[DesignatedT]

Im curious to know as well.

[FeZZy]

Hill again!

[CFH]

Nice drive by Hill.

[blkroadrunners]

Where is Bogans?

Just got home, is he injured?

Pop finally got off his wine for tonight and started playing Hairston more.

[DesignatedT]

Where is Bogans?

Just got home, is he injured?

[FeZZy]

haha offensive foul

[Spurs Brazil]

[FeZZy]

[Fpoonsie]

Not EXACTLY sure how we didn't get called for a block there, but, uh...

[Brazil]

refs helping us a little

[BanditHiro]

wow fuck the houston rockets playing their starters while the spurs played their garbage time players

[Russ]

Memphis collapsing . . .

[FeZZy]

why is grant hill doing commercials he's way past his prime..

[TD 21]

Bogans hurt his ankle last game. I don't think it was too bad, because he went back in last game and gave it a go tonight, but it's clearly not 100%.

[Sisk]

Rjjjjjjjjjj

[Fpoonsie]

:lmao

Love Sean's "busted and beaten down" commentary on the NY-SA Finals series.

[CFH]

Hill for 3!!!

[DesignatedT]

hill is feelin it!!

[FeZZy]

new career high!

[blkroadrunners]

GHill lost his 30 pt virginity.

[Creation88]

hill is off the chain tonight

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill 333333333333333333333333333

30pts

[timtonymanu]

congrats Hill.

[Chieflion]

30 points for Hill. New career high.

[Fpoonsie]

Hill! Love it.

[DesignatedT]

come on scola!!! i need my vbookie cash!!

[FeZZy]

16 and 6 come on!

[Fpoonsie]

Fuck. What is that for Scola?

[FeZZy]

17 and 6 now

[DesignatedT]

now if rj would only play like this every game...

[Fpoonsie]

Lol. Dammit...dammit...dammit. C'mon, pull him, Rox.

[TIMMYD!]

Come on GH3, keep piling on that career high!

[FeZZy]

nevermind 17 and 7

[alchemist]

96 points with 4:30 to go.... smh

[blkroadrunners]

Damnit Hairston!

[CFH]

Hairston stole that rebound from RJ. :lol

[Chieflion]

Hairston, I know you need playing time, you didn't need to injure RJ to do it.

[siraulo23]

wtf malik

[DesignatedT]

Dallas 99
Grizzlies 98

1:37 remaining

[alchemist]

damn now RJ is injured, this season has been a fucked one from the start.

[FeZZy]

2 more buckets come on SCOLA!

[Fpoonsie]

UH oh...somebody subbin' in for Scola?

[crosses fingers]

[FeZZy]

he's fine just needs to be subbed out

[TIMMYD!]

RJ is fine, don't make a big deal out of it.

[jestersmash]

duncan, ginobili, and RJ with a very balanced 17, 18, 19 points. ginobili also with the 10 assists to give hiim the 18-10 double double. ghill going into beast mode.

I dare say seeing games like this gives me hope.

[TD 21]

Mavs are going to win that game.

Playoffs are coming, the team is playing well, so naturally every fucking player has to have some type of injury now. Jefferson and Bogans twist their ankles, Mason's knuckle is sprained, Ginobili's back is sore, Duncan's knees are presumably sore, Parker breaks his hand. This team is team bad luck, they just can't catch a break.

[jestersmash]

jesus ghill really went into beast mode

[Death In June]

Is GHill a most improved candidate?

[TIMMYD!]

Noooooo, I just lost 30,000!

[siraulo23]

holy shittttt

i didnt pay attention to the vbookie, so its over/under 27 points + rebs

I thought it was easy money on under 27 POINTS

edit: never mind scola is out of the game

[FeZZy]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoOOOOOOOO

[CFH]

Ian sighting

[DesignatedT]

holy shittttt

i didnt pay attention to the vbookie, so its over/under 27 points + rebs

I thought it was easy money on under 27 POINTS

never mind scola is out of the game

:lol

[timtonymanu]

Is GHill a most improved candidate?

I hope so.

[FeZZy]

I'm vbookie broke

[jestersmash]

oh and most importantly, pop has some faith in malik and malik has delivered this game

maybe we can finally see more malik and less bogans.

[ffadicted]

Goddamn it Scola done for the night lol

[TIMMYD!]

Is GHill a most improved candidate?

He's definitely a candidate but I doubt he'll win.

[DesignatedT]

fucking scola. should have went under. now im broke

[FeZZy]

4 points outta it fuck

[Cant_Be_Faded]

GREAT WIN GUYS


Ian Mahinmi, the Spurs 2010 Victory Cigar is in the game. All is well.

Let's kick some Magic ass on friday! whatwhaaaaaaaaat

[Dr. Gonzo]

GREAT WIN GUYS


Ian Mahinmi, the Spurs 2010 Victory Cigar is in the game. All is well.

Let's kick some Magic ass on friday! whatwhaaaaaaaaat

He's the new Tony Massenburg.

[jestersmash]

it's funny, blair is basically the "veteran" out there cleaning up the plays with ian and malik out there.

similar to how someone like tim would probably be the "rock" and clean up plays for people like blair.

interesting to notice the very clear tiers here.

[FeZZy]

oh well...ghill

[DesignatedT]

:lol ian

[Stringer_Bell]

If the Spurs don't finish with 120 points this win is meaningless.

[jestersmash]

ian makes missing look so good. he tries to move all smooth like duncan, he just doesn't produce.

[Spurs Brazil]

Good win, great game by Hill

[024]

lol special company.

[FeZZy]

nazr had 30+ points? ha

[ffadicted]

Holy shit, Hill first spurs outside the big 3 to hit 30 since 2006.... that is fucking pathetic lmao
