Game Blog: Magic vs. Spurs: April 2nd

[Tp9gospursgo]

BS callshoulda been a no call

[SpurAddict561]

Yep - sounds like a plan to me. Of course, Howard hasn't been much of a factor tonight anyway.

not on offense but as long as he's in there he'll always be a factor on D

forcing us to redirect our drives and shots, you know

bring on Gortat!

[Spurs Brazil]

stupid foul Hill

[alchemist]

5 quick points to start the quarter, not good. come on fellas.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

where is Ruff, bitching about Jefferson?

Any fool can get lucky. He's still an empty uniform.

[TIMMYD!]

Not a good start to the 4th. :depressed

[timtonymanu]

fuck hill.

[Ice009]

This is a FUCKING JOKE.

I called it earlier in the game. Letting Reddick drive at will is PATHETIC beyond belief.

[FeZZy]

I'm starting to hate redick more and more now

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

george hill wake the fuck up

[SpurAddict561]

ut oh

terrible start

[FeZZy]

come on manu! j;lkhfcAS;KHDCJSD

[Trimble87]

bad bad start. Love Manu, but gambling there was stupid.

[jestersmash]

the hell is with JJ and those toliet bowl shots

[Crookshanks]

man that is just lucky for Reddick

[Spurs Brazil]

1 minute = Magic 7-0 run

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

[TIMMYD!]

Fuck, 1 point game.

[itzsoweezee]

pathetic

[SpurAddict561]

oh, Redick is a ceritifed fag

when I went to the Spurs game in Orlando I was shitting all over him when he came onto the floor

[timtonymanu]

i knew this was gonna happen.

[Refocus]

7-0 magic run. :|

[TampaDude]

Fucking JJ Redick...somebody knock that Dookie douchebag on his ass...

[itzsoweezee]

spurs making gay gay reddick look like a superstar

[CFH]

And down to a 2 point lead, no surprises here. :(

[Ice009]

Hairston should get Mason's minutes. Just his D would be an improvement.

Having Hairston on Reddick all game would have made this a much different game.

WHY IS MASON PLAYING???????

Fucked up our lead RMJ.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Manu should take it to the rim. Make Dwight foul him

[SpurAddict561]

manu should take it to the rim. Make dwight foul him

exactly!

[jestersmash]

Seriously teams are going to make a run. Spurs have had control of the game so far, Magic have had really fucking friendly rolls.

[Crookshanks]

come on Spurs - you built a lead with Timmy and Manu on the bench, and then throw almost all of it away in less than 2 minutes

[alchemist]

Wait wtf happened in Boston???? I thought the game was over, Houston won?

[bbarry]

Orlando was just CRUISIN throughout the first 3 quarters. Now they are putting the petal to the metal and are trying to win it now. Meanwhile, Spurs playing like it's garbage time.

[Trimble87]

Good move by Tim.

[FeZZy]

nice foul bonner

[Trimble87]

5 on Howard!

[Crookshanks]

Wait wtf happened in Boston???? I thought the game was over, Houston won?

It went to OT. Also, Memphis won tonight - so Spurs have to win.

[Spurs Brazil]

5th on Howard

[Tp9gospursgo]

Dwight gets a frustration foul lol

[Libri]

5 fouls on Howard :ihit

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol bonner is not even gonna try to defend

[Refocus]

Retarded move by Howard.. lmao. Red rocket made him mad.

[FeZZy]

5 on howard yes!

[Chieflion]

5th foul for Dwight. Ouch for Orlando.

[FeZZy]

timmay!

[alchemist]

Timmy looking great, that Houston game got him going!!!

[Trimble87]

Timmy!

[Spurs Brazil]

Vintage Tim Duncan!!!!!!!

[Crookshanks]

woo-hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 5 on Howard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TampaDude]

5 on DH!!!

[FeZZy]

bill land: TIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

[Trimble87]

TIMMY AGAIN! This is definitely good to see.

[007nites]

Is Timmy Back??

[Libri]

Oh yeaaaaah! Manu pass to Tim.

[TampaDude]

Timmy strong to the hole!!!

[tothrowed]

holy shit timmy is back babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy this is fun to watch

[Cherry]

manu to timy!!!!!!!

[Chieflion]

Manu finds Tim and the Spurs up by 8. We are cooking!

[Spurs Brazil]

Tim fucking Duncan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SpurAddict561]

We gotta make a run with dwight out!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Timmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmehhhhhhh

[FeZZy]

haha yes lets keep on owning!

[CFH]

Lead back up to 8, please hold it this time.

[ohmwrecker]

Timmy!

I thought Duncan was done . . . Right?

[Crookshanks]

looks the Spurs have got the Magic a little discombobulated :lol

[duncan228]

A little late but...Duncan :spin

[The Cougar]

lol Howard got mad

[nbaman99]

Timmy!!!!!!!!!!

[TampaDude]

Wow...the Celtics lost again tonight...they are in free fall...

[SpurAddict561]

Why are you guys worried about Houston & Memphis?

All we have to do is win one the rest of the season and we're in, right?

[Trimble87]

Bud needs to give manu some rest. Take him out now and he can come back in with 5 minutes left or so. At this rate hes going to have nothing left.

[alchemist]

It went to OT. Also, Memphis won tonight - so Spurs have to win.
Wow! I flipped it because I thought that game was over, Houston was down 3 they committed a foul and I said fuck it. Now I check the scores and see it went to OT and Houston got the W....:lmao The NBA is nuts

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Fuck, man, showing some fight against contending teams. Maybe we could reach the WCFs... whatever happens, this playoffs will be a rollercoaster ride because we don't have much consistency at either end, but when this team plays at its best it's as good as anyone in the West right now.

With the Fakers, Nuggets and Mavs all looking weak, the West is WIDE OPEN this year.

[TampaDude]

Do we clinch if we win tonight???

[TIMMYD!]

Let's see how many more Tim Duncan is done articles they make before the end of this season.

[Trimble87]

Do we clinch if we win tonight???

yes

[024]

duncan finally showing some life on the offensive end.

[SpurAddict561]

grab the fucking boards

[TampaDude]

WTF was that bullshit???

[Trimble87]

ahh, good grief. I agree Shaun.

[Spurs Brazil]

fucking refs again

[Tp9gospursgo]

That shoulda been an over the back foul!

[FeZZy]

that was crap

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

HOW the fuk is that a foul on george???

[Trimble87]

terrible D

[TIMMYD!]

Bullshit call on Hill!

[alchemist]

Why are you guys worried about Houston & Memphis?

All we have to do is win one the rest of the season and we're in, right?
Not worried, I just find it very interesting that they won when I thought they were fried.

[SpurAddict561]

08:51 Hill Substitution replaced by Mason


oh fuck

this is the point where we get blown out, god I hope not

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

PS 8 mins left. This is when we lose games against good teams. A real test.

[Fermixalot]

how the FUCK was that a foul on George?

[Libri]

that was crap

That foul was BS.

[FeZZy]

come on spurs!

[TampaDude]

Fuck...can't leave the Magic open from 3...

[FeZZy]

mason sucks

[Crookshanks]

how is that a foul on Hill? Idiot refs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SpurAddict561]

Get mason the fuck out wtfffffffff

[Trimble87]

Red Rocket for three!

[Tp9gospursgo]

Bonner!!

[TampaDude]

Red Rocket!!!

[FeZZy]

Bonner 3333333333333333

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner 333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

[Fermixalot]

was that Matt Bonner's cousin in the crowd?

[itzsoweezee]

this defense is just downright horrible

[SpurAddict561]

red rocket thank god!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Go ranger!!!

[Trimble87]

Carter is a bitch.

[Crookshanks]

damn - 3-point game nope - by the time I wrote that Bonner had hit a 3 :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Great D TD

[FeZZy]

spurs ball!

[SpurAddict561]

wow Mason blocked VC

holy shit

at least he's playing D tonight, 2 blocks!

[alchemist]

Do we clinch if we win tonight???
no because Memphis and Houston won.

[Fermixalot]

Knock him out Matty. Knock his pussy ass out

[Tp9gospursgo]

Bonner again!!

[TIMMYD!]

I fucked up on that bet.

[024]

lol matt bonner destroying the magic.

[TampaDude]

tick tock tick tock...

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Matt mother fucking BONNER!!

[FeZZy]

bonner on fire! FIRECROTCH

[Libri]

:lmao the ginger kid being shown every time Bonner hits a 3.

Who is that dude? :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner for MVP!!

[Trimble87]

Got to give Bonner props, hes having a really good game.

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner's driving has gotten great.

[superjames1992]

Bonner hits a three, throws a jab at VC, then drives into the lane Manu-esque and scores.

[emanueldavidginobili]

put manu in

[SpurAddict561]

Bonner is money with that runner

he's scoring double digits alot this year

Bonner>Nazr>Oberto>

[superjames1992]

Why take out Manu Pop Coach FUcks the game up again

Because Manu can't play a full 48-minutes game.

[Trimble87]

Why take out Manu Pop Coach FUcks the game up again


1. he needs rest.
2. Pop isn't coaching.

[TampaDude]

Two Magic players totally jump all over Hill and no call, but let Hill breathe on a Magic player and it's whistle city.

[FeZZy]

jefferson missed it aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh:bang

[Spurs Brazil]

Damn Jefferson, DAMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Dick misses the layup. How predictable. Great pass from Tim though.

[SpurAddict561]

fuck are we over the limit already

[HarlemHeat37]

Roger Mason is such a massive liability..one of the worst defenders in the NBA, has no basketball instincts, hustles once every 100 plays, doesn't rebound, he can't pass and he can no longer make shots..it's disgusting..

I know this isn't news to anybody, but it never gets easier to watch..

[TIMMYD!]

Fuck, Jefferson missed an easy lay-in!!!!!

[Crookshanks]

thank you Red Rocket - back up to an 8 point lead

[024]

mason is pretty horrible.

[emanueldavidginobili]

should have kept manu in especially with jj on him

[FeZZy]

mason GTFO

[FeZZy]

give it to tim

[Trimble87]

Get that late whistle out of here

[Crookshanks]

these refs suck

[Spurs Brazil]

Shit

FUCK REFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fermixalot]

BULLSHIT!!!!!

Matty making all the plays.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Fuck these refs man

[TampaDude]

This has to be one of the worst officiated games ever...

[FeZZy]

these have to be the worst refs of all time!

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner can't get a fucking break.

:bang

[Crookshanks]

go at Howard and foul him out

[itzsoweezee]

these refs are the fucking worst.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Time for Manu to pick it up again

[Trimble87]

refs you suck... refs you suck. Haven't seen the crowd get that into it for a while :)

[FeZZy]

referees sucks!

[Fermixalot]

Am I hearing the ATT Center coming alive? Its about damn time! Get on you feet!

[SpurAddict561]

Let's keep it tight these last 5

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

To go anywhere in the playoffs we're going to have to outscore our opponents rather than defend them out of games. This marks a huge change in Spur philosophy. Should be interesting.

[tothrowed]

i love our crowd tonight refing sucks

[FeZZy]

come on manu!

[Crookshanks]

Refs should be fined for this game

[FeZZy]

timmy's 4th?

[SpurAddict561]

Manu won't outdo his career high tonight

shitty

[Spurs Brazil]

4th on TD

[FeZZy]

if howard has 5 fouls go at him!

[Trimble87]

wow. terrible free throaw attempt by Howard

[TampaDude]

Wow...DH is a really poor FT shooter...good...

[SpurAddict561]

foul Dwight out, damnit!

[Rummpd]

Foul Howard the rest of the way up until the last 2 min

[SpurAddict561]

lamo Dwight missed both

bahahahah

[Fermixalot]

Refs should be fined for this game

I'd love to hear Bonner go crazy on them in a post-game interview, either that or keep hustling his ass off.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

phew howard can't shoot FTs to save his ass

[TampaDude]

HA HA fuck you JJ...

[SpurAddict561]

we need a basket here bad

[Trimble87]

Howard manhandling TD with no call

[Rummpd]

Manu three!

[TampaDude]

39 Pts.

[TIMMYD!]

Ginobili is God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

33333333333333333333333333333

[HarlemHeat37]

This is one of Dwight's main weaknesses, other than his FT shooting and jump shot..he's still mentally weak for a superstar..it's tough because he gets hit more than any other player in the NBA right now, but he hasn't learned to handle it well yet..

[Crookshanks]

look at Howard mugging Timmy - why wasn't that a foul?

[Tp9gospursgo]

Howard is a little bitch

[Fermixalot]

Hey if he's threatening the coach, isn't that, you know, a technical foul or something?

[Spurs Brazil]

haha

[Rummpd]

Foul Howard the rest of the way up until the last 2 min



Boy some one smart said this hee hee

[TIMMYD!]

Dwight mad at Budenholzer.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

BTW, why is Bud coaching?

[FeZZy]

howard alone on his own island

[jestersmash]

ginobili with the mother fucking timing!!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol it is really not necessary to foul howard that early

[Trimble87]

Timmy with the Jumper. Hells to the yes.

[FeZZy]

Timmy J

[TampaDude]

Timmy!!! Like buttah, baby!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Tim Duncan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rummpd]

Manu and Duncan are studs again!

[duncan228]

Duncan wants this game. Helping Manu.

[4001 STEREO SPUR]

Come on Howard..

you can do it!!

[Libri]

39 Pts.

correct

[SpurAddict561]

lmao they are goin hack a dwight the rest of the way

[Trimble87]

BTW, why is Bud coaching?

Pop got ejected after the 3 fouls in 4 minutes on Tim.

[TIMMYD!]

I like this method.

[TampaDude]

Spurs playing Hack-a-Howard...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

It5's the right thing to do here, but hack-a-XXX is bad for basketball and against the spirit of the game. The rules should be changed.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

at least run some clock before you foul howard yea?

[SpurAddict561]

Bring on Ian to put his 5 to good use hahahah

[FeZZy]

i hate that we have to do this..

[bigdog]

howard fouled out! YESSS!!!

[TampaDude]

Manu fouls out Howard!!! Buh Bye!!!

[Trimble87]

Howard fouled out. Bye Bye whiner.

[jestersmash]

WTF run some god damn time off the block before you foul howard

[FeZZy]

bye howard

[Fermixalot]

6th. Get out.

[SpurAddict561]

yea we gotta let them run some clock or it could hurt us in the end

[4001 STEREO SPUR]

Good Riddance!!!!!

[Libri]

Howard, you are out of here!

[Cherry]

lol @ hack-a-Howard

Bye bye Dwight :)

[HarlemHeat37]

Very weak call against Howard, but I guess they're calling it both ways..

Coming from somebody that has watched most of their games, this was probably his worst game of the season..Spurs got in his head, as did the refs, as usual..

[Crookshanks]

i hate that we have to do this..

not me - it's really messing with Howard's head and messing up their rhythm

[TIMMYD!]

Howard is gone.

Don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

[Cherry]

lol @ hack-a-Howard

Bye bye Dwight :)

[TIMMYD!]

Howard is gone.

Don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

[tothrowed]

howard just pointed at coach bud and cussed him out where is da t

[Spurs Brazil]

Bye Howard

TD>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.You

[TampaDude]

10 point lead!!!

[Refocus]

Howard wants to kill Coach Bud. lol.

[FeZZy]

let's goooooooo

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

darn can't foul a howard

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Pop got ejected after the 3 fouls in 4 minutes on Tim.

Thanks. I thought it was an experiment because I was sure I saw Pop on the bench in the third quarter sitting two seats down. :lol

[SpurAddict561]

oh well

he probably felt obligated to get his 6th

the way he was shooting FTs

[Trimble87]

It5's the right thing to do here, but hack-a-XXX is bad for basketball and against the spirit of the game. The rules should be changed.

I agree with you. As long as the rule stands its good strategy. But I am all for changing it to eliminate it from the game.

[duncan228]

Fuck. Duncan with 5.

[Jekka]

LMAO Coach bud pissing off howard

[FeZZy]

horrible call!

[TampaDude]

Very weak call against Howard, but I guess they're calling it both ways..

Yup...we know the refs are calling ticky tack fouls tonight...might as well take advantage of it...

[Crookshanks]

well - no more hack-a-Howard

[TIMMYD!]

Fuck, Tim with 5 fouls.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Flop!

[Spurs Brazil]

And now refs call a ad one on TD

[FeZZy]

that is crap afroman totally flopped

[4001 STEREO SPUR]

Fuck the refs

Come on SPURS!!

[Fermixalot]

Fuck. Duncan with 5.

You saying this made my day. :toast

But yes, fuck.

[TampaDude]

These refs are ruining the game...really...

[timtonymanu]

Im barely playing attention right now but why is Howard pissed at Bud?

[SpurAddict561]

2:39 left

let's finish it out right fellas
