Game Blog: 2010 Playoffs Round 2 - Spurs vs. Suns, Game 3

[4RINGS]

SUNS D??? Come on...This sucks

[ohmwrecker]

Dudley is a dumbass.

[Shastafarian]

They just don't seem to want it.

[TheManFromAcme]

Gino in. Hopefully he's still hot from the 3

[ALVAREZ6]

Spurs need to get Manu taking creatine or something so he can have enough energy to play 48 minutes a game. We can't win unless this happens.

[Warlord23]

Well, we should have known Jefferson is prone to sucking cock, literally. Worst signing in recent memory, given the amount of money he's getting paid.

[resistanze]

:lmao Dick!!!

He needs to think about the team and take himself out of the game.

[LakerHater]

FUCK Tony!

[NewJerSpur]

Well, the 4th Quarter will make or break the series.

[Biggems]

Parker has been off all night........WHY THE FUCK BRING BACK MANU AND NOT LET HIM HAVE THE LAST SHOT

[pawe]

Fuck you spurs i hope you get swept

fuck you asshole! gtfo with that weak shit!

[Spurologist]

without manu, we'd be down by 20

[DPG21920]

Regardless of the outcome, this is a win of a performance for the Suns.

[dbreiden83080]

Whoel seaosn comes down to this 4th Qtr

Gotta man the Fuck up

Lets go Spurs..

:flag::flag::flag::flag:

[4>0rings]

Did I just see Parker dribble the gawd damn ball for 3 hours and shoot a fade away?

God this team deserves to lose.

[TheManFromAcme]

This next quarter will decide the Spurs fate this series.

[L.I.T]

I think Barry just splooged himself over the defense on TP there.

"Goood...oh god...good defense. There...THERE!!"

[CFH]

Only ahead by 1 going into the 4th, this is going to be a very frustrating quarter...

[Sigz]

Spurs are terrible.

[Barfunk]

I hope I'm wrong, but this looks like a 5 game series at best. Oh and John Barry, go fuck yourself.

[01Snake]

12 minutes left. Gonna be tough to hang on.

[Capt Bringdown]

I'd never think I'd see a player like Jason Richardson play like this in the PO.
Hat's off to him.

[sammy]

Parker pass the ball if you are not going to drive and settle for brick jumpshot! Fuck!

[L.I.T]

I think Barry just splooged himself over the defense on TP there.

"Goood...oh god...good defense. There...THERE!!"

[SCdac]

Parker, you are supposed to DEVELOP a play... fuck, at least let Manu touch it if we bring him back in the ball game.

[45 bank shot]

why switch on those pick and rolls? TIm cannot guard nash

[dbreiden83080]

Whole season comes down to this 4th Qtr

Gotta man the Fuck up

Lets go Spurs..

[007nites]

The best shot we can get is a long 2 by parker?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Why the hell isn't Parker taking it to the rack? Those fallaway jumpshots kill us.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 1 after the 3rd

Hill and Jefferson = PATHETIC

Parker so far with a very disappointing game

[Josh810]

Lol @ Jon Barry. Wow, just wow.

[VBM]

Did I just see Parker dribble the gawd damn ball for 3 hours and shoot a fade away?

God this team deserves to lose.

That's his standard end of quarter play...done it all season

[royal2006]

good job pop, bench manu when he is hot

[ohmwrecker]

Where would we be without Bonner?

[ffadicted]

without manu, we'd be down by 20

mathematician over here lol

[dbestpro]

I guess there are days that sometimes you just got to eat a shit sandwich.

[timtonymanu]

Suns have the ball to start the 4th, damnit.

I swear Parker is playing like a dumbass. It's always gotta be one of our main players trying to fuck us up.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Well.... FML

[Biggems]

If I were Gentry, Id empty my bench and do Hack a Duncan the minute he comes back in the game......I seriously would

[boutons_deux]

Spurs lose the 2nd
Spurs lose the 3rd
Spurs lose the 4th
Spurs lose the series.

[slick'81]

spurs clinging to there playoff lives a1point lead v the suns going into the 4th well c what the spurs are made of here

[DPG21920]

I honestly can't believe what I am watching with regards to the Suns hitting this many huge shots. They absolutely refuse to let the game get out of reach. This is a stunning, high level of play from them.

[DAF86]

Why the fuck does Pop insist on giving the ball to Parker instead of Manu at the ends of quarters? :bang

Manu gets us a good look 90% of the time.

[Warlord23]

Summing up the 3rd quarter: we played TD for the whole quarter, and it took some amazing shots by Manu to just keep the lead from vanishing.

Does anyone think we have the horses to win 4 games out 5?

[boutons_deux]

Spurs lose the 2nd
Spurs lose the 3rd
Spurs lose the 4th
Spurs lose the series.

[hitmanyr2k]

If it comes down to crunchtime free throws the Spurs better have the ball in the hands of the guy that wears #20. Fuck the rest of'em.

[GSH]

Well the Spurs haven't come out and sent a message about defending home court, have they? Even if they pull this one out, it's going to be hard to get another one. They had the Suns down and took their foot off their necks - mostly from the FT line.

[4RINGS]

I guess Steve Kerr is a good GM after all... hehehe

[vednam]

Ginobili is not going to be able to carry the team by himself. Someone else has to step up.

[Mal]

Wow, out played on both ends by Suns. Pathetic staff

[Capt Bringdown]

Spurs have won just 3 quarters this entire series. We're getting dominated.

[Charles Sappa]

Parker, please, pass the f ... ball

[TheProfessor]

I don't have strong enough words to convey my disgust with RJ. Please, opt out, you heartless black hole of a human being. I would rather see a borderline NBDL player hustling his ass off, than your consistently gutless performances.

[sammy]

Let's Go Spurs! Do or Die!

[nbaman99]

Duncan losing this game and all the game for us with his free throws.

[dbreiden83080]

Come on Spurs, lets go 12 min we gotta have it


Go Spurs GO!!!!!

[Ice009]

Tp will step up.

Tp will step up.

[BillMc]

Big 4th. Here we go...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mal]

11-23 FT. Simply unbelieveable. How this is happening ?

[HarlemHeat37]

I honestly can't believe what I am watching with regards to the Suns hitting this many huge shots. They absolutely refuse to let the game get out of reach. This is a stunning, high level of play from them.

Sadly, it will be the complete opposite against LA..I hope not, but that's what happens when teams play against the Lakers TBH..not just because LA is a great defensive team, but I'm guessing they'll mentally crumble in general..

[slick'81]

Summing up the 3rd quarter: we played TD for the whole quarter, and it took some amazing shots by Manu to just keep the lead from vanishing.

Does anyone think we have the horses to win 4 games out 5?


i dont give a fuck lets start with game3 first

[Shastafarian]

Ft - 48.7%

[4>0rings]

Where would we be without Bonner?Hoisting the LOB trophy for the 5th time.

[NewJerSpur]

If I were Gentry, Id empty my bench and do Hack a Duncan the minute he comes back in the game......I seriously would

I definitely wouldn't give him any layups....he'd have to earn it and I do believe the misses have gotten inside his head.

[slick'81]

Sadly, it will be the complete opposite against LA..I hope not, but that's what happens when teams play against the Lakers TBH..


exactly lakers would stomp the suns ass

[Spurologist]

It come down to this quarter. Once again. Believe.

[alchemist]

Spurs have won just 3 quarters this entire series. We're getting dominated.
The sad thing is, I bet the Spurs were winning some of those quarters only to lose them in the last 4 minutes. :bang

[GSH]

Duncan and Parker are a combined 5-16 from the FT line. Manu hasn't been to the line yet. Nice.

[VBM]

Season on the line...right here

[01Snake]

Say bye bye to our lead here.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Well, we should have known Jefferson is prone to sucking cock, literally. Worst signing in recent memory, given the amount of money he's getting paid.

...except it wasn't a SIGNING, it was a trade for garbage.


This next quarter will decide the Spurs fate this series.

Way to state the obvious!

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

I honestly can't believe what I am watching with regards to the Suns hitting this many huge shots. They absolutely refuse to let the game get out of reach. This is a stunning, high level of play from them.


Yup, even Dragic hit a timely shot that killed any momentum the Bonner 3 might have built.

[TheProfessor]

Well, this is it - anyone feeling confident about our chances?

[Capt Bringdown]

I honestly can't believe what I am watching with regards to the Suns hitting this many huge shots. They absolutely refuse to let the game get out of reach. This is a stunning, high level of play from them.

I guess they're motivated for getting owned by us for so long. I don't believe they can continue to play at this high level in the PO, however.

[NewJerSpur]

Here we go...

[Mal]

12 untill heaven or hell

[4>0rings]

:lmao

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Lol fast break....

[slick'81]

i love u barbosa

[ShoogarBear]

Omg

[NewJerSpur]

Good defense by the Suns.

[alchemist]

only these Spurs can fuck up a fastbreak

[CFH]

A blown fast break attempt, great way to start the 4th...

[resistanze]

:lol What just happened?

[Spurologist]

mathematician over here lol

:lol

Didn't know he had 20

[pawe]

what the fuck is happening to this team? wow!!!

[noles1983]

that sums up our spurs right there...fucking pathetic

[4RINGS]

Terrible fast break

[TDomination]

wow, parker isn't good at fast breaks in this game

[01Snake]

Good God.

[GrandeDavid]

11-23 FT. Simply unbelieveable. How this is happening ?

Complete and total disgrace and indicative of choking.

[phxspurfan]

Hill is playing like hot garbage

[GSH]

Suns shooting better from the 3P line than we are from the FT line.

[Josepatches_]

Parker, please, pass the f ... ball


Parker sucks.That's all.

This summer is the time to trade him.

He can score 60 one game but............

[Ice009]

Lol come on spurs> come on.

[sammy]

They call a fucking foul on that!

[HarlemHeat37]

Parker is playing unbelievably bad..

[ALVAREZ6]

god damn it parker are you serious with that retarded reach and missed lay in

[Spurs Brazil]

Parker and hill FUCK YOU COWARDS

[Warlord23]

Fastbreak fail ... again

[Texas_Ranger]

:rollin

[noles1983]

fucking bad news bears of the nba

[DPG21920]

See, that is a championship level play by the Suns. Turn it over, but get back on defense and block the shot and get the board.

Now they have their first lead. Not surprising with that great momentum play.

[TheProfessor]

LOL Channing M'Fing Frye. LOL Goran M'Fing Dragic. LOL Spurs.

[hitmanyr2k]

Is Parker ALLERGIC to passing the ball to Ginobili? For fuck sake it's unbelievable how often it seems like he goes out of his way NOT to pass to him. Whether it's on a break or when the dude is wide open.

[Danny.Zhu]

Why does George Hill suck this bad?

[007nites]

Hill needs to dunk that shit

[NewJerSpur]

Thank you Matt.

[ffadicted]

LOL Bonner victory

[Mal]

Omg

[CFH]

Bonner :lol will he be the saviour???

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Goran

[slick'81]

dragic going nash on sa

[RedRaider]

nooooooo

[WildcardManu]

fucking phoenix act like they don't commit fouls

[ohmwrecker]

You would think that the Spurs could finish a goddamn fast break since they are watching the Suns do it so much.

[4RINGS]

Drag itch???? Wow

[resistanze]

Looked like a flop.

[Biggems]

dragic walked his ass off on that first make

[TheProfessor]

Without Matt Bonner, we're not in this game. That's the worst indictment of this team's performance.

[NewJerSpur]

Nice move Tony.

[Ice009]

I've fucking had it with the Pheonix scrubs hitting every shot.

[CFH]

Parker with the pretty move

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Dejuan Blair is gonna need some glue for his ass after what Dragic did.

[boutons_deux]

Spurs have no intensity.

Missed 12 FTs so far, gonna lose the game by less than 12.

[LakerHater]

These Suns cry for fouls & against fouls!!

[resistanze]

Parker needs to do that the WHOLE quarter. No more 18 footers.

[Spurologist]

Bonner/Blair

[TDomination]

we aren't even fighting the switches anymore, we are just allowing them to happen

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Yay for heart failure

[ShoogarBear]

Now they can't stop their backup guards.

[resistanze]

:lmao Blair murdered Barbosa.

[LakerHater]

What the fuak manu!!

[NewJerSpur]

LOL, Blair got away with one on that 1st rebound.

[CFH]

Two 3 point attempts missed, wonderful...

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu with another terrible shot

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Fuck THIS

[Ice009]

Wow spurs are shit.

[phxspurfan]

Horrible defense

[slick'81]

barbosa with a dagger

[VBM]

Lol at the switches

[4>0rings]

:lmao this team

[01Snake]

We're FUCKED!

[Mal]

doomed

[45 bank shot]

stop fucking switching for pick and rolls pop

[boutons_deux]

Suns 2nd unit gonna beat the Spurs.

[Barfunk]

well ill be damned

[LakerHater]

HORRIBLE D Blair!

[dbreiden83080]

This feels over.....

[Refocus]

how the fuck is every play a mismatch

[DPG21920]

Even Barbosa is coming up clutch. Spurs can't beat them if that is the case. Just tip your hat, because they are playing incredible.

[4RINGS]

Game ova??? STINKY STUFF

[TheProfessor]

Phoenix's bench players are taking turns schooling us. Just wow.

[alchemist]

:lmao fail

[slick'81]

spurs down 4 with nash resting fuck u barbosa

[superjames1992]

This switching crap has got to stop!!!

[Spurologist]

Blair/Bonner

Blair/Bonner

Blair/Bonner

[L.I.T]

That bench of the Suns is damn impressive.

[tp2021]

This team has no heart. If they do, I would love for them to start proving me wrong. but I don't see it.

[Ice009]

PATHETIC.

DOWN 4 now.

GIVING UP ANOTHER FUCKING OPEN 3.

[Capt Bringdown]

How did we beat the Mavs?

[Texas_Ranger]

This shit is over.

[CFH]

Barbosa hits a 3, don't let this get out of hand Spurs...

[45 bank shot]

stop switching

[Biggems]

game over, series over, season over

we just dont have it this year

Jefferson was a shitty acquisition.....we cant make clutch shots, we cant make FTs, we cant get stops from our D....

[GrandeDavid]

Oh, this is painful and embarrassing.

[Mal]

wtf with this switches. Give them layup already

[ffadicted]

BUUULIIIIIIIIIVEEE GUISE

yes

[Chieflion]

Switching defense fail.

[Ice009]

PATHETIC.

DOWN 4 now.

GIVING UP ANOTHER FUCKING OPEN 3.

[resistanze]

When Barbosa is clutch in the 4th you know it's trouble.

[ALVAREZ6]

WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THE SWITCH ON EVERY OPPORTUNITY? It's really the source of the Spurs losing this series. Always results in points.

[HarlemHeat37]

Barbosa beating the Spurs means it's official that the Suns have gotten over the hump..other than Marion, he's probably the player the Spurs' own most of any player in the NBA..

Ugh, at least I won $..

[sammy]

WTF are we small ball! Fuck Pop you have Bonner in there and no defense. Put in Dice with Blair for goodness sakes idiot! Now down by 3! Stop settling for jumpshots, drive damn you!

[noles1983]

http://www.homedepot.ca/wcsstore/HomeDepotCanada/images/catalog/15460.ProfessionalHeavy-DutyCornBroom_4.jpg

[ShoogarBear]

Parker sucks.That's all.

This summer is the time to trade him.

He can score 60 one game but............

Yeah, because Hill has been stepping us.

Good call, dumbass. :tu

Predictable. :rolleyes

[007nites]

Why is every play a mismatch?

[TheManFromAcme]

Come on S.A. Tie a nut. Contest every shot.

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill, please go to the locker room, I don't know why but you find a way to be worst than Mason today

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Blair, Bonner. Poison.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Sad but predictable. They are too athletic at for us at every poition, and they have too much shooting for our old legs to cover.

Gonna take a massive effort to win it from here.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Sad but predictable. They are too athletic at for us at every poition, and they have too much shooting for our old legs to cover.

Gonna take a massive effort to win it from here.

[Pauleta14]

We just don't deserve to win... PATHETIC

[SCdac]

Why have we been watching our bigs getting picked apart by guards the past 20 or so minutes? Where is Tim Duncan and McDyess???? this the 4th quarter!!!!

[royal2006]

Blair/Bonner :S

[roycrikside]

I hope all you people who were bashing Manu for Game 2 see the Grade A level stink bomb Tony's putting up today. Way not to pass it to your hottest player on a 3-on-2 Frenchie.

[alchemist]

Who knew that a blown fast break could result in a 5pt turnaround. :bang :bang :bang

[Danny.Zhu]

we aren't even fighting the switches anymore, we are just allowing them to happen

You meant Hill and Parker.

[MacGyver]

Suns are unreal. Can't miss. :(

[Pauleta14]

and Nash is resting during that time...

[LakerHater]

barbosa with a dagger

A dagger, with 9:15 to play...C'MON!

[resistanze]

11-23 from the FT really hurts now.

[Mr.Robinson]

Who knew that a blown fast break could result in a 5pt turnaround. :bang :bang :bang

Tony can't run a fast break to save his life.

[Spurologist]

http://www.homedepot.ca/wcsstore/homedepotcanada/images/catalog/15460.professionalheavy-dutycornbroom_4.jpg

gtfo

[GSH]

Why is every play a mismatch?


Because we can't shoot the damned ball and they can.

[NewJerSpur]

Game isn't over, but it's definitely the Suns' to lose at this point. Bigger than the 3-pointers have been the missed FT's imo which have been the team's undoing. Tim is going to have to get rolling soon.

[DPG21920]

I don't get Spurs fans? Spurs are not pathetic. They are playing well. The Suns are just simply playing amazing.

[Beaverfuzz]

Play some damn defense and make some shots. WIN THIS GAME SPURS!

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Sad but predictable. They are too athletic at for us at every poition, and they have too much shooting for our old legs to cover.

Gonna take a massive effort to win it from here.

And no more Dice or Duncan free minutes.

[GrandeDavid]

When Barbosa is clutch in the 4th you know it's trouble.

Exactly! That's the first time I've ever seen him yell like that. Way to go Spurs.

[DAF86]

Why do they switch so easily, sometimes the guard doesn't even get caught on the screen and they switch anyways. The strategy is clearly not working, make something else.

Put Tim and maybe Dice back in, we can't let this thing get out of reach.

[DPG21920]

Who knew that a blown fast break could result in a 5pt turnaround. :bang :bang :bang

I did. In fact I said it as it happened.

[4RINGS]

SPEND TIME WITH MOM ON MOTHER'S DAY... don't waste your time watching game 4.

[Mal]

I don't get Spurs fans? Spurs are not pathetic. They are playing well. The Suns are just simply playing amazing.

Are you watching Spurs - Suns game 3 of 2010 2 round playoff ?

[Beaverfuzz]

I don't get Spurs fans? Spurs are not pathetic. They are playing well. The Suns are just simply playing amazing.

Spurs need to score more than 76 to beat Phoenix...case closed.

[Whisky Dog]

Only a 4 pt game, but this needs to turn around now. I know it's a bad matchup but you have to play through that and step up.

[txallstar]

can we just end this already

[slick'81]

lets go parker

[NewJerSpur]

Thank you Tony.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

GH3 is sucking ass

[Mr.Robinson]

Because we can't shoot the damned ball and they can.

HILL has let this team down. Nigga choked. Jefferson is a fucking giant panocha. Duncan is old.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

TP. Big.

[Capt Bringdown]

I'm starting to warm to the idea that it would have been better for us to miss the PO this year.

[dbestpro]

Dudley 45.8% number 4
Frye 43.9% number 6
Nash 42.6% number 10
Dragic 39.4% number 25
Richardson 39.2% number 27

The Suns have been hitting their shots all season. It seems only Spur fans had not noticed.

[TDomination]

another fuckin switch, another fuckin basket

[LakerHater]

traveling??

[CFH]

TP on the drive and Dragic scores again, ugh...

[4>0rings]

Dragic draining his nut all over the Spurs

[superjames1992]

WTF are we small ball! Fuck Pop you have Bonner in there and no defense. Put in Dice with Blair for goodness sakes idiot! Now down by 3! Stop settling for jumpshots, drive damn you!

Have you watched the game? Bonner has played well tonight...

You really can't blame Blair/Bonner for giving up points. It's Pop's philosophy of switching off on the Suns' guards that is the source of the problem. You can't expect Blair to guard Barbosa.

[Ice009]

Dragic making Duncan look like a joke.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Getting chippy down low.

[4RINGS]

Drag itch........................

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

lol Goran Dragic shredding the Spurs

[slick'81]

dragic going nuts

[GrandeDavid]

That Grogic guy or whatever his name is has become lil Larry Bird on the Spurs.

[ALVAREZ6]

LOL Dragic only has one move and the spurs fall for it every time. This is pathetic. Fuck you Spurs.

[Juanobili]

Jesus Christ Goran


and stfu Barry

[TDomination]

and hill waiting for the switch there leaves dragic open

[CFH]

Well looks like Dragic has gone Roddy B on us, wonderful...

[Ice009]

LOL Spurs are pathetic.

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill fucked on D again

TAKE HIM OUT

[alchemist]

Dragic schooling Timmy and hitting 3's, this shit is unbelievable!!!

[NewJerSpur]

We can't continue to keep trading baskets.

[TheProfessor]

I know we got Blair out of the deal, but anyone else regretting gifting Goran Dragic to the Suns right now? :lol

[quentin_compson]

Dragic killing us now? :depressed

[Spurologist]

why isn't manu touching the ball

[RedRaider]

What a choke job.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Spurs look done.

[txallstar]

spurs can't shot, done cakes

[mexicanjunior]

I don't get Spurs fans? Spurs are not pathetic. They are playing well. The Suns are just simply playing amazing.

Tell yourself that next trip to the free throw line...

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Wow.......

[sammy]

Take TP out and let Manu run the point! WTF is wrong with Hill! No D and throwing a slopping pass to Duncan! Fuck sit his ass down!

[slick'81]

suns shitting all over sa right now

[Josepatches_]

Yeah, because Hill has been stepping us.

Good call, dumbass. :tu

Predictable. :rolleyes


Hill hasn't been stepping up but the same Parker does.


It's Duncan or never.

[LakerHater]

Doesnt feel good!

[Mal]

game fucking over

[TDomination]

:(

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Lots of time. Manu!

[rfbulletdude]

fuk this, game is over, series is over, season is over. i'm turning game off and playing ps3.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Lots of time. Manu! D up!!!
