[resistanze]

:lol Bonehead

[jag]

Rj....

[BillMc]

"RJ's RJ-ness is killing them."



Yep, he's a self-defining term now. :toast

[timvp]

Refs suck both ways.

[TampaDude]

Obvious make up call there.

[AnthonyM]

Then we give it right back..awesome

[boutons_deux]

4th qtr, 2 possessions, 2 TOs

[gaKNOW!blee]

its beyond comprehension how bad jefferson/mason/bonner are.

i seriously cant believe it.

hill too

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK Jefferson

Opt out and go to hell your MOFO

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Fucking make-up calls. :pctoss

[Ice009]

Come on guys. GET AGGRESSIVE AND FINISH.

[Fpoonsie]

Well, bad call, but I'll take it.

Aaaaaand then that.

[DPG21920]

RJ come on dude.

[jag]

These refs want to be the stars tonight. It's pathetic.

[Seventyniner]

Fourth quarter scoring so far: Spurs 0, Mavs 0, Refs 3

[ffadicted]

RJ fucking sucks man, holy fuck he fucking sucks oh my god so much suckage jesus fuck

sorry guys, just taking it out for the entire season of trying to protect this guy, I've had enough lol

[WildcardManu]

Refs now with the magnifying glasses on now?

[mogrovejo]

Very late call on the charge against Marion. Wow.

More than late, it was the wrong one.

[TDomination]

our offense is pathetic

[CFH]

I love watching RMJ clank shots...

[007nites]

mason just putting up prayers

[HarlemHeat37]

I'd actually like to see Hairston guard Butler if Malik is healthy at some point in this series..risky, but I think he can match up with him physically, at least better than RJ or Bogans..

[suitedkings]

THis line up sucks...

[SCdac]

WTF is Mason running the point?? What happened to George Hill?

[DPG21920]

Such bad offense. Mavs defense has been very good.

[angelbelow]

damn it

[Tp9gospursgo]

Mason needs to sit.

[TampaDude]

Butler is just shitting all over us...

[BillMc]

Has Mason made a shot in weeks??

[EmptyMan]

game over

[Libri]

Mason, GTFO

[Spurs Brazil]

this is a horrible lineup

[Ice009]

I don't understand why MASON JR. is playinh???????????????????????????????

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

is bogans and mason on the fkin court together necessary?

[ffadicted]

Ballgame sons

[GSH]

He was so far over the top of Blair... WTF?

[DPG21920]

Butler running the Spurs out of the gym.

[Death In June]

Nice line up pop, you fucking buffon.

[Fpoonsie]

Here we go...

:depressed

[timvp]

Game about to slip away ............................

[magui86770]

game slipping away... =(

[Bob Lanier]

And there's the game.

[phxspurfan]

Butler going all Stephen Jackson on us

[angelbelow]

I love watching RMJ clank shots...

well shot clock running down... but i know what you mean.

[Ice009]

Fire pop.

This guy is a fucking clown.

[CFH]

:bang

[Seventyniner]

The high degree-of-difficulty shots are swinging the game. The Mavs are making some insane shots.

[tony-bangbang-eva]

oh my...buttboi butler is kicking our asses...

tony needs to go bangbang the mavs like they are eva.

go go Spurs...

[boutons_deux]

Spurs can't score, can't avoid TOs, Mavs can't miss, GAMEOVER

[dirk4mvp]

lol Butler

[MavDynasty]

Caron muthafuckin Butler:The new Spur killer

[Spurologist]

We are being shat on

[TDomination]

our pathetic line up is ruining this game.

why couldnt dice stay in the game a bit longer. why wait so long to put in blair. mason instead of hill? hill wasn't playing well but mason??

[benefactor]

Game over.

[Spursfanfromafar]

They should have Mason for anyone in the trade deadline. what a waste of time is this piece of shit.

[siraulo23]

fuck you pop

[InK]

Seriouslly, wdf....

[Spurs Brazil]

Thanks Pop, great lineup in a playoff game

Our big is 6'7 and Mason is playing

Great coaching job :tu

[dmavs41]

CROFL MASON THANK YOU, Throw bonner in there and this game is set

[dbestpro]

Manu is being read like a book. Pop as I had feared has reverted back to some of his insane rotations.

[BanditHiro]

game over fuck they made a run without dirk time to just eat crow for another year fuck can't we just ban all the mavs fans

[Tp9gospursgo]

Manu needs to take over this game...NOW

[timvp]

If Dirk and Butler keep playing at this level, it'll be a sweep. They are just too good his game.

[Shastafarian]

If Mason is still in after the break I might just change the channel for a bit.

[DPG21920]

Yeah, a lot of this is on Pop. But it does not help when he feels like he has to do something drastic because no one is stepping up.

[Capt Bringdown]

Too bad we made the playoffs.

[gaKNOW!blee]

wow pop great fucking lineup, that whole no PG thing really is brilliant.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Game over.

[EmptyMan]

**switches to "just enjoy Duncan's last years" mode**

[Libri]

:pctoss

[blkroadrunners]

:pctoss

[Ghjkll]

Fuck, Manu with 5 TO. Take care of the fucking ball.

[peskypesky]

I don't understand why MASON JR. is playinh???????????????????????????????

because Pop can't play Finley.

[magui86770]

everyone is bitching about mason but who else. bonner? bogans? rj? they suck right now. where's hill? is he hurt?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

damn you pop you fucking moron

[smeagol]

That miracle starts with an M . . .

Manu has to take over the game.

MANU:

I said TAKEOVER the game . . . not TURNOVER the ball!!!!

[TDfan2007]

Turnover...Mavs score

Turnover...Mavs score

Turnover...ah shit this is getting old.

[NewJerSpur]

Well, props to Butler for making some tough shots. Spurs are missing there right now and not executing. Going to have to stop turning the ball over to stop the bleeding.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

This is all on Pop. he just might be the worst coach in the entire playoffs right now.

He could get the dream team to choke in the first round.

[Whisky Dog]

Game looks to be over.

Gotta make adjustments and take game 2. Must win that one.

I'm not sure what you do - Hill can't play and Jeff/Bonner/Mason completely suck in playoffs. Have to find someone who will step up, whether Temple or Ian or whoever.

[oligarchy]

Mavs just beating the team they're supposed to beat..

[InK]

I just wanna puke, can't remember the last time i was so ticked off at a bball game

[mogrovejo]

You need to have more patience and purpose to beat the Mavs defence. Move the ball around until you find an open look or a favourable matchup.

[hitmanyr2k]

Popovich knows what he's doing. He has 4 rings. It's only April.

[SCdac]

not enough George Hill and DeJuan Blair. Too much Mason and Bonner.

[tony-bangbang-eva]

we need td to dominate the post!

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason come to the game with a game tie in the 3rd. Now Mavs up 12

WHY THIS GUY PLAY?????????????????????????????????????????????? ?

He'd be behind the bench for 15 playoffs team but stupid Pop plays him.

FML

[pjjrfan]

The Mavs did thier homework. they are jumping on Manu's pick and roll with Blair all this second half.

[Ice009]

You may as well not even play the series if you're going to play Mason Jr.

Pop is a dumb shit of a coach. I don't care how bad George Hill is, but if he said he can play then YOU DON'T FUCKING PLAY MASON JR WITH THE GAME ON THE LINE.

WHAT KIND OF RETARD COACH HAVE WE GOT.

WHY DID BONNER PLAY WHEN WE GOT A LEAD AND DICE WAS YANKED??????

THIS IS NOT THE REGULAR SEASON. IF THEY CAN'T PLAY MORE MINUTES DON'T WORRY ABOUT SHOWING UP POP. FUCK OFF AND LET SOMEONE ELSE COACH.

[noles1983]

fuck you Pop
fuck you Mason
fuck you mavs

[007nites]

Timmay needs to get back

[benefactor]

Pop going with the vet over the rookie. Nothing to see here.

[TampaDude]

Don't forget that the refs biased whistles are preventing the Spurs from defending as aggressively as they want to. Might as well back off and just let Dirk shoot the fucking ball and avoid the automatic "and 1".

[Mavzy45]

Refs suck both ways.


Well said!:toast

[DPG21920]

Manu has not had that great of a game. I think his turnovers have washed out what he had done on offense.

Spurs have serious match up problems and they look slow. Pop wanted the Mavs. He got them.

[timvp]

Put Blair on Dirk. He can't do much worse than Bonner, Bogans or Befferson.

[itzsoweezee]

what a horrible lineup. you're a moron popovich.

[peskypesky]

If Mason is still in after the break I might just change the channel for a bit.

i'm not watching anymore. after Blair goes for 20 and 20 in the last game against this very team, Pop decides to reward him for that effort by giving his playing time to Matt Bonner. Fuck that shit.

[Brazil]

the Tos party is on again

[BillMc]

Um.... the series is far from over ....

[MavDynasty]

I love how Rick devolped Caron's 3. Hes like a 30% 3pt shooter but ever since the trade after that one shitty stretch he has been beastin from 3.

[Libri]

I just wanna puke, can't remember the last time i was so ticked off at a bball game

I remember a lot of times. :lol

[AnthonyM]

lol Butler


Caron muthafuckin Butler:The new Spur killer

Lol, 4 rings, faggots

[nbaman99]

They came to play and beat us, we are just collecting a paycheck. Jefferson, Mason, Bonner, Keith, Hill all fucking suck. Just wonder if one of them step up to the plate what might happened, its only a 9 point game.

[peskypesky]

Pop hasn't done shit since Carlesimo left.

[TDomination]

Popovich knows what he's doing. He has 4 rings. It's only April.

thanks lol i needed that :lol

[Danny.Zhu]

Damn it!!!

[tdunk21]

not pop's fault...rj has 2 points mason has 0....these fuckin guys are supposed to be the supprting cast and score atleast 3 or 4 FG's....

[ShoogarBear]

Bogans/Bonner/Mason = 34 min, 0-5 FG, -25 +/-

[Shastafarian]

CIA Pop just wants to give the Mavs a false sense of security. Then, down 3 games to 0, CIA Pop will make his move. Beware!

[InK]

17 assists - 17 to's

Niiice one

[DPG21920]

I would rather the refs suck both ways and the Spurs have more FT's. Why did they show .4?

[MavDynasty]

Lol, 4 rings, faggots

:lmao

[Bob Lanier]

:lol There's a little dagger in the back for Spurs fans from TNT

[Fermixalot]

Why do they have to show that? That's just cruel.

[Spurs Brazil]

.4

Great

[tony-bangbang-eva]

why are they showing the game where Fish puts a sock on our heads???? why??? grrrr

[pjjrfan]

Plus the Mavs get points off our turnovers, we don't.

[peskypesky]

but hey, it's just one game. we can still make this a series.

[TDomination]

saviour mason still in. don't know who said it but whoever you are, you can change the channel for a bit now lol

[Tp9gospursgo]

Manu and 1

[boutons_deux]

And Terry hasn't even had to go off on us

[ffadicted]

Manuu SAVE USS!! lol

[blkroadrunners]

And1 Manu..

[007nites]

come on ginobili

[BanditHiro]

mason still in

[NewJerSpur]

Game looks to be over.

Gotta make adjustments and take game 2. Must win that one.

I'm not sure what you do - Hill can't play and Jeff/Bonner/Mason completely suck in playoffs. Have to find someone who will step up, whether Temple or Ian or whoever.

I'd definitely give a look at Temple...he seemed to exhibit a bit of the tough defense and ability to get to the basket George has. Good move Manu.

[siraulo23]

holy shit im not watching anymore, mason is still there

[Libri]

Manu is amazing.

[CFH]

Manu and 1

[Capt Bringdown]

And the network has to replay .04 just for kicks.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuu and one

[chaco]

manu !

[superjames1992]

Manu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Shastafarian]

Mason's still in. Coach of the Year.

[sammy]

Manu!

[TampaDude]

They just showed .4...the shot should not have counted...the Lakers were smart to quickly run to the locker room.

[hitmanyr2k]

Ginobili should have said fuck passing and been doing that shit all along.

[j.dizzle]

Wtf does Dick bring to the team...Holy shit he cant score & plays matador defense..just terrible

[Brodels]

not pop's fault...rj has 2 points mason has 0....these fuckin guys are supposed to be the supprting cast and score atleast 3 or 4 FG's....


So it's not Pop's fault that he's trying to make Bonner and Bogans be the Dirk stoppers?

[AnthonyM]

:lmao

:lmao 4 rings faggot

[RedRaider]

Manu is going to have to go nuts cuz no one else is doing shit

[DPG21920]

Good strong take by Manu. Mavs are just a damn good team and Dirk is an absolute beast. I told you the Spurs droughts scare me. The Mavs don't seem to have them.

[Spurologist]

Put Blair on Dirk. He can't do much worse than Bonner, Bogans or Befferson.

I've been wishing that for awhile

[TDomination]

freakin haywood

[dmavs41]

why isnt dirk in

[ffadicted]

What a fucking shitty lineup

[timvp]

Oh sweet Bonn hair is back in.

[Brazil]

i'm not watching anymore. after Blair goes for 20 and 20 in the last game against this very team, Pop decides to reward him for that effort by giving his playing time to Matt Bonner. Fuck that shit.

bonner can shoot the 3 !... euh wait...

[DPG21920]

Over the back?

[NewJerSpur]

Looked like Haywood came over Tim's back.

[Spurologist]

Damn Haywood is fucking long

[DawgMilkX]

Maybe Tim Donaghy wasn't lying the way this officiating is

[SCdac]

The Bogans-Mason-Bonner combinations is hoooorrible.

[Shastafarian]

Gotta spread the floor!

[Libri]

Bonner clank

[Rummpd]

manu was raped

[DPG21920]

Bonner, thanks for the help. :lol Bogans defense there.

[007nites]

bonner....

[sammy]

Fucking Bonner! Brick!

[resistanze]

:lol Bonner getting playoff minutes.

[VBM]

Fuck you bonner...make a wide open jumper

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner

[benefactor]

Bonner having flashbacks from last year.

[Ice009]

Fail of a coach. Matt bonner.

[dmavs41]

Crofl boner

[jag]

I hate matt bonner.

[007nites]

Timmy lol r u kiddin me

[DPG21920]

Tim, nice.

[CFH]

Duncan and 1.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

The Bogans-Mason-Bonner combinations is hoooorrible.

this doesn't make sense, there is a reason they are on the court !

[Spurologist]

Bonner is the definition of a choker

[Tp9gospursgo]

We're not giving up...

[TDomination]

bonner all of a sudden sucking at his 3's and hook shot. i guess it must be the playoffs

[ffadicted]

Holy fuck man what a good game for TD and Ginobili (and even Parker)... too bad the rest of our team are fucking huge pussy faggots

[Fermixalot]

Timmy D absolutely refusing to be denied.

[blkroadrunners]

Tim and Manu in willpower mode right now.

[NewJerSpur]

Tim is a beast. He and Manu are going to have to deliver us at this point.

[Spurs Brazil]

TD and one!

[AnthonyM]

Duncan is playing ridiculous

[gaKNOW!blee]

i want bonner dead. im not joking.

[magui86770]

Man, Tim and Manu came to play and no one else....

[LnGrrrR]

Nice finish TD!

[DPG21920]

Spurs have to make a run here.

[tony-bangbang-eva]

Dick Nowitzki is in...better duck the firepower. defense is terrible :(

[timvp]

Someone needs to take Bonner behind the barn and end the misery.

[BillMc]

Here we go, either we make a run or its over...

[ShoogarBear]

FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner
FUCK Bonner

On the plus side, there should be a good post-game Sequ post.

[Spursfanfromafar]

two very similar plays..but Bonner misses an open 3. Great play by Ginobili.

Nice follow up by Duncan. We are still in it. and thankfully Mason sits.

[NewJerSpur]

The Bogans-Mason-Bonner combinations is hoooorrible.

The 3 of them on the floor together is not a wise idea.

[Libri]

bonner all of a sudden sucking at his 3's and hook shot. i guess it must be the playoffs

post season Bonner

[benefactor]

On the plus side, there should be a good post-game Sequ post.
:tu

He should be pretty ripped by now.

[hitmanyr2k]

If Ginobili passes up another shot to give it to Bonner he oughta be shot. I don't care how wide open Bonner is.

[dmavs41]

dammit terry

[007nites]

All we need is defense

[AnthonyM]

Wow, the rim just gave us a gift...

[DisAsTerBot]

where is hill?

[benefactor]

RJ going to rim...where has that been all night?

[CFH]

That's what you should've been doing all game RJ...

[Tp9gospursgo]

Thank God Terry didnt make that one...it would been a dagger

[LnGrrrR]

Oof Terry in and out... You guys got lucky on that one :)

[sammy]

Come on RJ, make throws FT!

[DPG21920]

Wow, Spurs dodged another bullet. I like the double, but you can't give them wide open 3's. But you do have to force it out of Dirk's hands and hope the other guys miss.

[benefactor]

where is hill?
His ankle is not ready.

[007nites]

back to 6

[magui86770]

despite all this crap, only down by 6. wow.

[tony-bangbang-eva]

RJ scores!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[8FOR!3]

This is our last chance to make a run at this game guys.

[NewJerSpur]

Hopefully RJ starts to get aggressive offensively.

[angelbelow]

we still ahve a good shot but we have to play perfectly..

[timvp]

Take.

Out.

Bonn.

Hair.

[ohmwrecker]

At least Mr. Hanky can't hit a shot.

[GSH]

Yeah, but when they call breating fouls against a team, they have to back off on defense.

[tony-bangbang-eva]

wtf. marion that easy

[Libri]

This is shit.

[dmavs41]

omg boner

[blkroadrunners]

This defense is falling apart.

[jag]

finally

[VBM]

Bout damn time bonner

[007nites]

Its bout time bonner

[CFH]

Bonner hits a 3 finally!!!

[DPG21920]

Bonner with the 4th quarter 3

[j.dizzle]

bonnnnnnnnnnnnner hahahaha

[NewJerSpur]

Red rocket!!!

[Tp9gospursgo]

Bonner!

[TampaDude]

Bonner...finally!!!

[TDomination]

finally white man!

[Spurologist]

Bonnnnnnerrrrr 33333333333333333333

[ballhog]

Finally Bonner!!!!

[tony-bangbang-eva]

Tony sets up Boner

[ffadicted]

Hopefully that gets Bon Bon going

[Fermixalot]

Thank you Matt. Now sit down please.

[AnthonyM]

Wow, now Pop won't take Bonner out for the rest of the game.

[angelbelow]

There we go!

[Spurs Brazil]

Bonner 33333333333333333333

[benefactor]

God does exist.

[magui86770]

bonner!!!

[hitmanyr2k]

And the reverse jinx works :lol

[LnGrrrR]

Mavs making that extra pass is all the difference. And Bonner finally hits one!

[superjames1992]

Bonner!!!

[ffadicted]

Woh the fuck is guarding Marion

[angelbelow]

lol fucking marion

[Spursfanfromafar]

Good Shot, Bonner.. He is not as bad as Roger Mason, folks. Have faith in the Red Rocket.

[benefactor]

Where is Dice?

[timvp]

Oh my god.

[DPG21920]

Marion making the trash he is supposed to make.

[j.dizzle]

some shitty ass defense sons. Cant even get a stop

[007nites]

vintage parker!

[tony-bangbang-eva]

Tony! Bangbang!

[angelbelow]

beautiful retro parker
