2010 Playoffs: Round 1, Game 3 - Spurs vs Mavs Game Blog

[ShoogarBear]

Gat durn, Tony. That ball had NO rotation on it.

I'll take it, though.

[Spurologist]

Big 3 all involved in that play.......BEAUTIFUL!

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Tony motherfucking parker! I love that dude!

[DJ Mbenga]

Lets go OT!

[Cherry]

thanks tony!

[ezau]

fuck! TP is amazing. However says we don't need Tony now because we have Hill, you can all die now

[vander]

is that dallas's last time out?

[GSH]

Did Dirky even have possession to call that time out? I didn't think so.

[100%duncan]

damn it should have been a 3 but tony is clutch!

[Spurs Brazil]

we need a stop now

Let's play the most perfect D of the season

[Crookshanks]

I thought for sure that was a 3 by Tony. He must've just been on the line.

[NewJerSpur]

Parkers really improved that J over the years.

Yes, yes he has.

[Mal]

2 big plays by TOny. How many time Mavs have ?

[EmptyMan]

hill shutting down little burrito on that last play


hells yea mf'er

[HarlemHeat37]

Tony Parker is coming up huge right now..

Fuck, 1:16 is an eternity..just win the game..a W here would be massive for even more reasons than just leading the series..

[slick'81]

we need a stop now

Let's play the most perfect D of the season


almost there

[biziofromdowntown]

Oh shit, if we win this we'll win the series

[Shastafarian]

dirk gets bailed out there should of been a jump ball

Nah I think it was a good call. Tony hit the ball out of his hands and by the time someone had possession it was Dirk and he was calling a timeout.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Gotta admit Dirk has been incredible tonight, as has Barea, ugly little burrito that he is.

Best game of basketball I've watched all year... now let's win it! :tu

[Cherry]

Lets go OT!

INSTANT heart attack for us. No thanks:lol

[100%duncan]

just hold on for one D possession and put the dagger right away!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

lets rip their hearts out!

[Warlord23]

Big question looming for Pop here ... does he double Dirk and risk a 3 pointer ... given that we are up 3, the implications are colossal

[Rummpd]

They need to review Parkers shot it may be a three - he appeared almost out of bounds from angle on TV.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

mavs have just one 20 secs left? is that correct?

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Go spurs go!!

[Libri]

no margin for error

[lefty]

Ok we get it Pierce made a buzzer beater

[slick'81]

no 3 ball please no 3 ball

[ffadicted]

Man, this is easily the best game of the entire NBA season so far

[NewJerSpur]

Gotta admit Dirk has been incredible tonight, as has Barea, ugly little burrito that he is.

Best game of basketball I've watched all year... now let's win it! :tu

Agreed.

[DJ Mbenga]

lol duncan 5 rebounds wtf?

[EmptyMan]

jiffy lube guy!

[007nites]

My heart is going to burst everytime Terry is open and takes the three now.

Tony! Thanks for making Mark Cuban look like that!

[007nites]

I knew Parker was going to take that

[angelbelow]

yes!

[Mal]

Mavs without time out

[HarlemHeat37]

If they had called an offensive foul, it would have been one of the worst calls I've ever seen..he barely touched him..

[ShoogarBear]

FANTASTIC D by Dice on the switch there.

[Warlord23]

That wasn't a push in the slightest btw ... complete flop by the midget

[100%duncan]

the refs are letting them play right now! That is what I want!

[timtonymanu]

TP has been fuckin clutch.

Fuck all you haters.

[NewJerSpur]

Great help defense by Dice on Terry.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Mcdyess gets HUGE props for tonight!!!!

[biziofromdowntown]

Dice is great, love him

[Spurologist]

DICE had a great block there.. FUCK BONNER... SIT YOUR ASS ON THE BENCH

[DAF86]

Quick haters, go hide!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

First wrong call by Hubie there - Barea flopped like the bitch he is, so no call.

[Crookshanks]

Dallas has no time outs left - that could really be huge.

[ffadicted]

Dice has been nothing short of amazing in the POs

[lurker]

Ugh, letting Tony get away with one at the end. I didn't have many complaints until that. :(

[slick'81]

game over

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes

[Spurs Brazil]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[biziofromdowntown]

Georgi have nuts

[slick'81]

It's never fuckin over......

Let's go Hill

MAKE THOSE SHITS.

Dallas no TO!


its over

[ffadicted]

Thoughts on the Game:

* Manu is such a fucking warrior, no need to elaborate
* Tony has proven himself to be clutch, the finals MVP is officially back
* Dice was the best pickup of the offseason, by far
* George Hill is slowly coming back to form, good to see
* Best basketball game of the season of any teams so far

[Warlord23]

Ugh, letting Tony get away with one at the end. I didn't have many complaints until that. :(

Are you kidding? He barely touched him

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Ugh, letting Tony get away with one at the end. I didn't have many complaints until that. :(

Barea was all over Tony's arm and that is a foul, but the contact both ways was light. Look again, it was a good no call.

[angelbelow]

contest better hill..

can kind of understand... didnt want terry to drive but players usually will take that 3..

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Hahahahaha ball game

[resistanze]

It's a wrap folks!

[100%duncan]

And 1 bitches!

[timtonymanu]

yes an and 1.

[NewJerSpur]

Dumb foul by Dirk, smart play by Manu.

[Rummpd]

Parker is a BEAST

[ShoogarBear]

Holy shit, I've never seen the entire team fired up like this.

[lurker]

Congrats, Spurs fans. I'm gonna go eat my feelings with some pizza rolls now.

[slick'81]

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Unreal game. Love this team.

Game

Of

The

Year

And yeah, this team finally gelled a month ago and they are incredible right now. The 3rd Qs suck, but they have heart.

[Refocus]

Spurs win wooo

[ezau]

2-1 bitches!!!

[Texas_Ranger]

Fuck you Dallas!!!

[siraulo23]

Spurs win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~!@@@@@@@@@@

[Cherry]

[m33p0]

[ShoogarBear]

For once they didn't die by the three.

[OrEmuN]

Manu + Parker = win !!!

[TDomination]

yes spurs!!!!! WOOOOOO!!!!

[Crookshanks]

Great game! And even greater Win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Suck on that Cuban!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[biziofromdowntown]

We are the elite!!!!

[GSH]

The Spurs just took the Mavs best punch and kicked their asses.

[picc84]

Daaammnn that was intense. Is this how all Spurs/Mavs series are?

[NewJerSpur]

What a gritty, trademark Spurs win. Props to lurker for sticking around supporting his team.

[dbestpro]

Good game for both teams. This could have gone either way.

[slick'81]

never doubted them for a second

[boutons_deux]

heavyweights, 15 rounds, blood on the floor, Spurs win.

THESE Spurs can beat anybody.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

God I love the emotion the big three show.

Hill and Dice were huge tonight!!!

[Libri]

Game

Of

The

Year

(so far).

And yeah, this team finally gelled a month ago and they are incredible right now. The 3rd Qs suck, but they have heart.

acronym??? GOTY

[lefty]

Wooghoohooooooo


Fuck you TP, only 23 pts :pctoss

[Cherry]

manu is god i think its official

I hope he is ok :(

:flag:

[superjames1992]

Go spurs go!!!!!!!!!!!

[100%duncan]

3-1 next game baby

[poop]

all around the metroplex bottles are being opened and poured generously

[Osnofa]

Fuck yeahhhhhhhhhh

[NewJerSpur]

I wasn't being sarcastic either, lurker has been here for most of the game. We're on a mission this year.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Spurs>Mavs

[Crookshanks]

Daaammnn that was intense. Is this how all Spurs/Mavs series are?

Pretty much. It's usually the best series in the playoffs. Tonight's game was certainly the best of the playoffs so far. :toast

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Dan Shulman ought to be fired. He was the one bad thing about that game, made so many dumb mistakes. I could do a better job than that chump.

[Taking it to the Hole]

What a game!!!!

[m33p0]

Daaammnn that was intense. Is this how all Spurs/Mavs series are?
excluding the last regular season game, every spurs mavs game is pretty much like this.

[NFO]

that took 2 1/2 months out of my life span.

I second that. :flag:

[HBS]

A great win for the Spurs considering poor outside shooting throughout the game!!!

[jdev82]

feels so good to watch dirk choke away the game after hubie and that other guy slobbered all over him for 48 minutes for flopping the most obvious fake flop ive ever seen

[biziofromdowntown]

i'm so damn happy

[easy7]

Good, another day without Mavs trolls, thank God.

[GSH]

This may have been the break-out game we've been looking for all season. We usually have one during the rodeo road trip, but all the injuries kept the rotations screwed up. When I see the Spurs playing with this kind of passion, I don't doubt that they can go all the way.

[NewJerSpur]

2009 feels like it was 20 years ago.

[MeesterMarcus]

WOW... What an intense/awesome game. This is one hell of a series. GO SPURS!

[Spurs Brazil]

Great win, big 3 played fantastic and props to Hill/Dice

I can't believe we won the game with no threes made

Welcome Back Tony and thanks

[Horse]

Our run is not over I'm excited as hell about Hill's future. The mavs played as good as anyone to end the season if we can beat them who knows? The thing I'm most excited about is I believe we've taken their heart they continue to fight but keep coming up short, they look to have lost confidence. Now just imagine if we did'nt have all those unforced to's in gm 1.

[nadie]

i don't if this has been asked already. should the mavs lose this series, is it the only team, which as a first seed team lost to an eight seed team, and which as a second seed team lost to a seven seed team?

[siraulo23]

We got the stops when we needed them~

Unbelievable

[NewJerSpur]

This may have been the break-out game we've been looking for all season. We usually have one during the rodeo road trip, but all the injuries kept the rotations screwed up. When I see the Spurs playing with this kind of passion, I don't doubt that they can go all the way.

Good point.

[SpurAddict561]

0-5 from downtown and we win?

Spurs basketball is back?

[foodie2]

God I will never sleep tonight.

[Spurs Brazil]

The best thing for me is the team keep fighting despite the big Dallas run in the 3rd.

Props to Pop for playing TD the entire 2nd half

[SpurAddict561]

I can't believe Butler sat on the bench the whole game

wow

Barea did pretty good but bad move Carlisle...

Butler roasted us game 1

[carina_gino20]

whoa, TD with 43 mins and GHill 44min.

Best statistic is Mason: 1:10 min.

[Johnny RIngo]

God damn, this felt like a 2006 Spurs-Mavs game. I take back everything I said about Parker earlier - he was ridiculously clutch tonight.

[NewJerSpur]

The best thing for me is the team keep fighting despite the big Dallas run in the 3rd.

Props to Pop for playing TD the entire 2nd half

Yeah that was crazy and great to see, and he didn't appear to be too gassed. We made some bad plays when Dallas' defense tightened up in the 4th, but we negated them with great, old school Spur rotations.

[Horse]

The best thing for me is the team keep fighting despite the big Dallas run in the 3rd.

Props to Pop for playing TD the entire 2nd half
Great point and for anyone who thinks this is not Timmy's team there's all the proof you need, playoff time he picks it up and is as good as anyone.:flag:

[hsxvvd]

Yep. That's how I remember it.

[Crookshanks]

I was really impressed with the team tonight. They survived that 19-2 run in the 3rd quarter and stayed pretty cool when Dallas took the lead in the 4th. Great, great win! I think this one takes the wind out of the Mavs sails. They played really hard and still came up short.

[NewJerSpur]

whoa, TD with 43 mins and GHill 44min.

Best statistic is Mason: 1:10 min.

Never know when he might shrug off the crappiness of his year and come in handy on a run with a big shot. Glad Pop is keeping this in mind and not taking him totally out of the series.

[Crookshanks]

Sunday is Timmy's birthday - Spurs need to give him win 3 for a present.

[Whisky Dog]

Epic win. I've missed that feeling, been two to three years since it's been here. I gotta give props to Dirk and to mav, they played HARD tonight and really wanted that game, but the Spurs just had that big 3 magic with an apparently healthy George Hill and Dice making plays. Dice is a clutch dude, he's showing up big when it matters most.

Get game 4. Put the foot on the mav throat.

[ned_ryerson]

jesus, i need a drink.

or 4
