Spurs vs. Sonics Game Six -- Game Blog

[timvp]

The Spurs need to win this game so that they aren't forced into a game seven. It'll be a tough win, but I think the Spurs can do it. Parker needs to come up big. Manu has to be re-energized. Duncan needs to be Duncan. They need SOME bench production. Barry needs to keep breaking records. Pop needs to be on his game. Spurs can do this.

Believe.

[ALVAREZ6]

I do not want to see this series go 7 games. I want the Spurs to regain full confidence going into the WC finals. All I want is a win. That's it. I don't care who plays bad, who plays well...I just want to be over with this series.

!!!GO SPURS!!!

[beirmeistr]

Call it my sixth sense, or my spider sense, or maybe it's the 2 glasses of wine I had with my supper, but I feel a good game coming up---one where all the starters are clicking, where the bench players contribute, especially Big Shot Rob. The Spurs are due, make that overdue for one of those games.

[spurschick]

Well, if you listen to Bill Walton, the Spurs have no chance. I hate that guy! Is there anyone who wouldn't but a bullet in his head if they had the chance? I can't stomach the thought of having to listen to him during the finals. Thank goodness for the mute button and Bill Shoening.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

The Spurs are due, make that overdue for one of those games.

...and statistically speaking the Sonics are due to slip at home. They've won 6 straight home playoff games.

I'm concerned but hopeful. The Spurs really need a good start tonight.

[JustSpurs]

Besides the obvious reasons I'd like to get this series over with, I have 800 Vbookie bucks on us taking it in 6. Go Spurs Go

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Besides the obvious reasons I'd like to get this series over with, I have 800 Vbookie bucks on us taking it in 6. Go Spurs Go

And I have 250 on it going 7. I figured if I put it on 6 I'd jinx them, so this is a charitable vbookie effort on the line tonight. If the Spurs win, some virtual orphanage somewhere will get $250 vbucks (which is trading just between the dollar and the euro I'm told).

[JoeChalupa]

Let's do this Spurs.

[ALVAREZ6]

I've been waiting forever...still 2 hours left...

[smeagol]

Reasons why the Spurs will win:

1) They are the better team

2) All three "bigs" will have a good game, and that in itself is enough to beat SEA

3) Tony has something to prove, and he will prove it tonight

4) I stand to make a lot (and when I say a lot, I mean a LOT) of Vbucks!

[beirmeistr]

Still 1 1/2 hours to go. I'm getting nervous, in spite of my 2 glasses of wine. I just opened my first Killian's Red. Come on, let's get this game going.

HERE HERE!!!!

[Horry For 3!]

The Spurs gotta win tonight! I've been waitin for Game 6 since the end of Game 5. I'm ready, lets bring it Spurs! :)

[E20]

I'm gonna make around 25 Vbucks and I'm pretty damn confident that the Spurs are gonna win!

[NZHayden]

Damn ESPN aint showing the game over here. ill have to watch this thread

[Phil]

Damn ESPN aint showing the game over here. ill have to watch this thread

I'm in the same situation, damn ESPN here, they are so slack!

[mookie2001]

oh boy

[MaNuMaNiAc]

I Hope They Show It Over Here!!!

[juncan]

Go Spurs Go!

[Jimcs50]

Go Spurs Go!!!

[MaNuMaNiAc]

SHIT!!! they're not going to show the game!!

[JoeChalupa]

Wake up Spurs.

[JustSpurs]

SHIT!!! they're not going to show the game!!
You ain't missing anything....yet

[Dre_7]

What a block by Timmy though.

[Dre_7]

Crap, Barrys in the game, SEA will go on a big run.

[smeagol]

Slow start by the Spurs

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

All Seattle is doing is driving to the bucket. Meanwhile, I can't really figure out what we're trying to do on offense. Talk about jungle ball.

Oh, and I am sick of Tim watching AD drive all the way in for a fucking layup. I am very disappointed in Tim after they said he and AD had been eating together.

This isn't the regular season Tim, everyone in green and gold is your fucking enemy until the series is over.

[smeagol]

Man I just lost some dough on the other game (I think almost everybody did)

[Dre_7]

Barry sux!!!

Missed a WIDE open layup, pathetic!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Barry blows a layup. Let the Brent Barry sucks posts begin :lol

[dn0]

oh shit shaggy is in

[Dre_7]

Put Bigg Dogg or Brown in, NOT Barry!!!

[Dre_7]

Tony hits a Jumper!

Finally!

[Dre_7]

Nice Nazr!!!!

[Dre_7]

Allen with a nice pass to Coach Mac, hey buddy, Nate dont play no more!

[dn0]

give the ball to #20 , don't invent anything .

[smeagol]

Nazr looks sharp on the offensive end.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Anybody out there need play by play?

[texasqb2]

the worst player in the NBA

[Dre_7]

That Star Wars thing was extremely lame!!

[smeagol]

Nice Star Wars flick thingy

[Dre_7]

Duncan off again!

[TDfan2007]

Tim's shots aren't even close to going in

[Duncanoypi]

hey Duncan....wake up!

[TDfan2007]

looks like it's gonna be the Manu show again.

D'oh! he missed a FT!

[JoeChalupa]

Pop needs to find a hot hand.

[TDfan2007]

Horry is playing very well right now... unlike another big man who will remain nameless

[JoeChalupa]

Tim will get his.

[TDfan2007]

WHO CAN STOP AD FROM DRIVING DOWN THE FUCKING LANE!!!!!

:pctoss :pctoss :pctoss :pctoss :pctoss :pctoss

[Dre_7]

Whats wrong w/ AD? He seems to be in pain everytime he goes down??

[dn0]

is there a rule not to touch daniels when he drives?

[ducks]

and you are on drugs

[TDfan2007]

Tim 2-2 from the line!

[JoeChalupa]

Come on Big Dog!!

[SpursFanDan]

Lets talk about antonio daniels... I loved this guy when he played for us,... but now when he drives to the basket hes got this sweeping layup where he always seems to draw a foul.... and he gets up and has this shit eating grin like someone owes him something more.

[TDfan2007]

You gotta love those missed lay-ups!

[JoeChalupa]

When did lay ups become difficult?

[Tek_XX]

Are bench sucks cept horry

[TDfan2007]

wtf was Manu thinking?!

[Dre_7]

I though the Doggs missed layup was goaltended, but I guess not.

[JoeChalupa]

Good move to the basket.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

He's gotten more calls going to the rack than Ray Allen. I'd love for someone to clue me in why, especially when the lane parts for his ass.

[Dre_7]

wtf was Manu thinking?!

What are you talkin about? He always drives like that.

[Tres_Till_it_MHz]

Damn Manu better not be hurt!

[Tek_XX]

8 times

[TDfan2007]

he had 3 people on him

[Tek_XX]

Manu has wounded pride

[Dre_7]

Is he okay??

It didnt look like he got hurt.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

WHO CAN STOP AD FROM DRIVING DOWN THE FUCKING LANE!!!!!

Tim would, but he doesn't want to fuck up his dinner plans.

[Dre_7]

he had 3 people on him

And he has split multiple defenders many times. Plus, the clock was running down.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

IMO, it could and should be much worse. Spurs are only down 5. Where is our guard penetration tonight? If that doesn't change, neither will the lead.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu's gonna have to save the day, because Duncan seems pre-occupied with making sure his dinner date doesn't look like a scrub.

Complete bullshit.

[Tek_XX]

Bill Shoening said Tim had that look on his face, came to the gym early today to work out

ugh for what maybe he should have gotten more rest.

[efrem1]

Well, being only down five without TD making a basket is a moral victory.

[TwoHandJam]

Well we came out like shit. Again.

Duncan has no lift and looks very poor. He never jumps to contest shots. Our interior defense is really weak.

Can someone tell me if there's a conspiracy to make Antonio Daniels look like some kind of superstar? The guy was with the Spurs long enough for me to know he SUCKS. Why the hell are we making him look like Kobe Bryant.

It's so infuriating.

[boutons]

Spurs are totally out of sync, lucky to be down by only 5.
Spurs FG 38% - 50%
RBs 5 - 11
paint 8 - 12

Spurs totally lost the first qtr.

[Dre_7]

Tim would, but he doesn't want to fuck up his dinner plans.

Yeah Im sure thats what hes been thinking this whole series. Sometimes you can say some pretty stupid things man. :lol

[ididnotnothat]

He's gotten more calls going to the rack than Ray Allen. I'd love for someone to clue me in why, especially when the lane parts for his ass.

Reminds me of an Argentenian guard on the Spurs.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

I'm so sick of our perimiter guys passing up open shots. Tony and Barry have got to shoot and hit those if the Sonics interior D is going to be loosened up.

[Dre_7]

Well we came out like shit. Again.

Duncan has no lift and looks very poor. He never jumps to contest shots. Our interior defense is really weak.

It's so infuriating.

AD didnt look like he sucked in 99. He is a good player.

[Tek_XX]

without manu on this team we'd already be turning our tv's off

[TDfan2007]

layup drill for Seattle

[dn0]

okay this is a layup festival

[TDfan2007]

Tim 0-5

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

AD is a scrub. Duncan just stands flat footed and watches him, Ray, and Luke go by for layups.

Is a playoff foul too much to ask for?

Duncan hasn't taken it to the hole strong once, and now he's making fucking Danny Fortson look good.

What a fucking joke. Show some balls #21.

[TwoHandJam]

Duncan sucks.

[SpursFanDan]

he gets calls like hes a nba veteran,... just because the guy spends more time on the floor than on his feet doesnt meant he gets fouled.

[Dre_7]

That is why Tim doesnt LEAVE his man to tryand stop AD, cuz it gives Tims man a free path to the basket!!!!!

You saw it with your own eyes!!!

[TwoHandJam]

Our interior is like tissue. Layup after layup.

Sonics must have all their points in the paint.

[ducks]

9:57 SA - B. Udrih makes a 26-foot three-pointer from the right wing. Assist: M. Ginobili

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Reminds me of an Argentenian guard on the Spurs.

There's a difference between getting put on your ass by frustrated opponents and flopping on it like a fish out of water.

[Duncanoypi]

Beno for 3!!!!!!

[Dre_7]

Barry sux!

[myhc]

Sonics shooting at nearly 70% clip. :pctoss

[dn0]

okay shaggy just collected 3 fouls

[myhc]

Keep Barry out for the freaking game already.

[WalterBenitez]

Damn Manu better not be hurt!
WHat happened to Manu? :oops

[NameDropper]

Rumor has it that it is better to play good than to feel good.

[Tek_XX]

Brent Barry can just go away, someone should ask pop why he even bothers to put him on the court

[Dre_7]

Hopefully Barry will foul out soon, that way there is no chance of him comming in the game again. Spurs need to pick it up.

[ducks]

big dog is greater then barry
play him pop

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Right now Duncan is giving him a run for his money.

[JustSpurs]

Barry left his game at the airport here, Jeeeezus!

[TwoHandJam]

Antonio Daniels should win an oscar for his acting. But yet again, Barry is totally invisible.

Jerome James is hitting 15 footers. It's going to be a long night.

[ALVAREZ6]

Is it me, or is Tim Duncan terrible at defense?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

The only shitty thing about Brent's foul is that he didn't do it putting Antonio Daniels down for the count.

[vsnba]

fuck berry , take out of the game and put robinson

[ALVAREZ6]

Duncan is letting little guards drive right to him with ease, and he can't get a single block, or force a single miss.

[ducks]

james can not make those on a regular basic I can live with that

[vsnba]

put robinson and give ball to duncan

[TwoHandJam]

Is it me, or is Tim Duncan terrible at defense?
His ankle must have regressed because he's not leaving his feet at all.

[ALVAREZ6]

fuck berry , take out of the game and put robinson
Big Dog sucks ass.

[ducks]

Is Duncan Hurt?

[ALVAREZ6]

His ankle must have regressed because he's not leaving his feet at all.
He hasn't been leaving his feet all series.

[dn0]

the spurs showing kings soft like defense , td doesn't want to hurt his friend and his offense is horrible.. come on wake the fuck up MVP

[j_epsilon]

lol @ brent barry, 3 fouls already...

does anyone else hate antonio daniels as much as i do?

i mean he always drives to the lane and does the "kobe" (throw yourself to the floor and scream EYYYYY)...you gotta be fuucking kidding me with this guy...

[ALVAREZ6]

put robinson and give ball to duncan
How bout take robinson out, and give the ball to Manu.

[Spurs R Us]

Brent Barry's ass should be nailed to the bench for the rest of the game!!

[ALVAREZ6]

I cannot believe this, the Spurs simply can't win in Seattle.

I do not want to go to a game 7. fuck this.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Apparently all you have to do is go out to dinner with your opponent, and the lane will open up for you.

[Dre_7]

Finally!! Barry is out!!

[j_epsilon]

lol...fuck antonio daniels...stupid kobe clone...crying and bitching about every foul called on him or foul he thinks should have been called...

[Tek_XX]

This is not a great Spurs road team

[JustSpurs]

From a coaching stand point, what is Pop thinking by putting Barry in? Seriously.
Kinda makes you wonder why Seattle cut him, eh?

[myhc]

free throws are saving us tonight.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Brent Barry isn't the reason we're losing.

It's because no one feels the need to do anything about protecting the lane, and Tim Duncan is trying to help Antonio out with his contract extension this summer.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Nazr > duncan tonight. Fuck 4down, 5down is working.

[dn0]

NAZR rocks

[ALVAREZ6]

When are we gonna start playing a little bit of D?

[Tek_XX]

Where has the NAZR been, hitting hooks, playing smart wow

[Manu20]

Nazr can not be Stop!!!!

[myhc]

Nazr!!!

[JustSpurs]

Maybe Tim is trying to garner players favors...maybe he's planning on being an agent.

[TwoHandJam]

Tony being aggressive. That's good to see.

Horry and Nazr have showed up. Tim is sucking from the field but at least he's hitting free throws now.

[Dre_7]

Spurs will pick it up, Sonics will cool off, Spurs will win this game!!

As bad as they are playing, and as good as Seattle is playing, Its only a 3 point game!!!

[1Parker1]

Go Nazr! Back to back baskets to cut lead 35-38 Sonics

[Duncanoypi]

Is Duncan playing?

[Tek_XX]

Aggie is trying to defend Brent Barry, how fucking sad

[polandprzem]

Anyone has a radio?

[efrem1]

TD not having a basket and we are down only three. If he catches fire, it will be interesting. :)

[boutons]

The only good thing about Tim's disaster is that he can only get better tonight.
Tony and Tim invisible.

[dn0]

I don't recognize the person wearing #21, that's not Tim Duncan.

[Tek_XX]

i don't know bout ya'll, but i have 50% less cringe whenever Nazr gets the ball

[ALVAREZ6]

Nazr is the oonly big man doing something. Duncan is flat otu sucking on offense, defense, he isn't even trying to block anything...if he's not in good enough condition to play D, then take him out.

We need D before offense.

[Dre_7]

It's because no one feels the need to do anything about protecting the lane, and Tim Duncan is trying to help Antonio out with his contract extension this summer.

Did you just see what happened when Tim did go out and play D on the driving guard? Fortson had a path to the hoop. That is why Tim is reluctant to help out.

Spurs need to find a way to pick up the D!!!!!

[ALVAREZ6]

I don't recognize the person wearing #21, that's not Tim Duncan.
Sure it is, he's just sucking major ass...

[Duncanoypi]

WTF!...Spurs players scored...8 7 6 5 4 3 2....

[ALVAREZ6]

Everytime Seattle gets an early run/lead in the 1st quarter, we can never catch up...that is pissing me off.

It won't be 'til the 4th quarter where we take the lead for the 1st time.

[Dre_7]

Nazr owning the boards again!!!

[ducks]

he sucks ass? he should suck pussy!

[hump]

I love Timmy, but he is really struggling right now.

[GoldToe]

The Spurs are just where they want to be.

[Dre_7]

Good news is, as bad as weve been playin, we are up 1!

[ducks]

Tied Game!

[Duncanoypi]

we're living at the FT!...

[1Parker1]

Damn, Bruce Bowen to the FT line, and making BOTH??! Did hell freeze over?

[myhc]

The tide is turning..............

[IcemanCometh]

you guys scream like women

[myhc]

damn hitting free throws is infectious!! :elephant

[Dre_7]

Nice play Tony!!!!!!!!!!

[GoldToe]

http://www.chm.bris.ac.uk/webprojects2000/cbradshaw/miyagi.jpg

Duncanson..best basketball still inside you..time to let out!!!!

[smeagol]

How the fuck are we winning this game?

We are svcking out there!

[Dre_7]

damn hitting free throws is infectious!! :elephant

Thats how it is with Tim. He makes his 1st few, he hits several in a row. Misses his 1st few, misses several in a row!

Its mental.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Aggie is trying to defend Brent Barry, how fucking sad

I didn't say that, just that people trying to blame Barry when we aren't defending the lane is kinda misguided.


Did you just see what happened when Tim did go out and play D on the driving guard? Fortson had a path to the hoop. That is why Tim is reluctant to help out.

Well Ray's scored on Bowen once before, I guess we should stop playing that matchup too...

I'm not talking about Tim playing D 20 feet from the lane. I'm talking about him standing flat footed in the lane watching Ridnour, Antonio, and Ray taking turns in the layup line.

[Dre_7]

How the fuck are we winning this game?

We are svcking out there!

Hopefully we can play Spurs basketball in the second half and take care of these clowns!

[ducks]

2:57 SEA - Shooting foul on R. Allen
2:57 SA - Layup by T. Parker
2:57 SA - T. Parker offensive rebound

[Tek_XX]

where was the foul, not that i'm complaining

[Manu20]

How the fuck are we winning this game?

We are svcking out there!
Hitting free throws and not turning the ball over.

[smeagol]

Hopefully we can play Spurs basketball in the second half and take care of these clowns!
Agreed.

We need to play just a tad better and this game is in the bag.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Do you know anything about our defensive strategy SASpurs? The whole idea is to take AWAY the layups and make people shoot from farther out where the percentages go down.

They are shooting LAYUPS. You've got to take that away, it's the highest percentage shot in basketball.

[Dre_7]

I'm not talking about Tim playing D 20 feet from the lane. I'm talking about him standing flat footed in the lane watching Ridnour, Antonio, and Ray taking turns in the layup line.

Well, it looks like Tim is starting to pick up his D! Hopefully he can sustain it!

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Tenemos cojones! We're going to win this fucking game. Seattle should've put us away.

Maybe that last sequence will get TP going.

[efrem1]

Can you believe this?! TD not getting a basket and we are up by six. Come on TD, get on the train.

[milkyway21]

warning!
don't jinx the FTs

100% :elephant

[Dre_7]

They are shooting LAYUPS. You've got to take that away, it's the highest percentage shot in basketball.

I am aware of that, it just seems really stupid how you talk about Tim and AD having dinner is the reason Tim has not played D very well.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

We'd be getting killed if it wasn't for that spurt with Nazr and Horry as our front court.

We went from down 5 to up 6.

[Dre_7]

warning!
don't jinx the FTs

100% :elephant

AHHHHHH!!

[Duncanoypi]

as you said...

[Tek_XX]

Spurs fighting the urge to give it right back to the sonics

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

That's partially tongue in cheek, but it's bullshit Tim hasn't put AD on his ass or even blocked a shot, meanwhile AD is attacking him every time.

The dinner thing pisses me off because it's a war out there. You think the other Spurs are cool with that when they hear it? Because I can tell you they're not.

Dinner dates aside, it doesn't excuse Duncan for letting Luke and Ray for doing the same thing.

[Dre_7]

Ticky Tac call on Bowen!!!

Man alive!

[JustSpurs]

Okay...everytime I go into the living room to watch the game, Sonics score or we turn it over...I think I'll stay here in the computer room for awhile!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Stay out of the living room. Damn :lol

[hump]

Go spurs

[ducks]

1:24 SA - T. Parker drives to the hoop for a layup

[Dre_7]

Tony still Ice Cold from 3.

Starting to pick up his aggresiveness though.

[Tek_XX]

wtf was that tony, whens the last time tony hit a three

i fucking hate the spurs self destruct mode before the end of the half

[JustSpurs]

No Problem...if we win I'll catch the re-play on NBA-TV tomorrow.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

13 seconds in the half. I just hope Seattle doesn't get a three.

[Duncanoypi]

Nice...ray Allen...

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Wow, that was a great play Pop. Tony fadeaway three.

[Duncanoypi]

At least Seattle didn't score...

[JustSpurs]

Will somebody please post the score at the half....I gotta go through the living room to get to the kitchen and my beer count is low :drunk

[ALVAREZ6]

I hope the Spurs play a little D in the 2nd half

[Tek_XX]

Let's not get to cocky, we should have won games in this building before and didn't

[boutons]

Fronting Duncan is the best way to neutralize him, or have Malone push him out to the wing.

Horry and Nazr = ass-savers in the first half.
Manu + Tony = 13 pts
Tim = no FGs

Miracle = Spurs +5 at the half.

[ALVAREZ6]

Is a complete disaster. I am sick of letting Luke Ridnour, Ray Allen, and Antonio Daniels get free lay-ups in the lane. Duncan and Horry are pretty much just sitting back, watching them without reacting.

If we want to win this game, we are going to need to contain these little guards and stop giving them free lay-ups.

[JoeChalupa]

Well I'm slammin' brewskies and :smokin to get ready for what I hope is the better half of this game.

[efrem1]

I cannot state how good I feel for the moment. When is the last time TD failed to score a basket in a half? Being up by five is not too shabby given the circumstances. :)

[Dre_7]

Wow, that was a great play Pop. Tony fadeaway three.

Obviously that was not the play that was called. There is this thing called 5 second violation, Im sure bowen didnt wanna give SEA the ball right back.

But obviously, everything that doesnt go right is Pops fault.



I think I will stop raggin on AHF now though.
Just getting my frustration out. Spurs played very poorly, yet we are up 5. There is good news!!!

[Tek_XX]

5 or 6 years ago if Timmy didn't score we'd be down 40

[ALVAREZ6]

Anybody feel the same way?

When are the Free Lay-Up Passes going to expire?

[RobinsontoDuncan]

yeah our players look tired, even after our run they weren't playing sound Defense, horry's block not withstanding, letting Ray Allen decide where he wants to go, etc. 60% from the floor in the 1st quarter?

[Dre_7]

Good news from the 1st half:
1. Despite Duncan not scoring, we are up 5.
2. We are making our free throws.
3. Seattle is hot, but they will cool down.
4. Their big men look like they will be having foul trouble.
5. I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico!!!

[boutons]

Agreed, very mysterious.
What's with the uncontested layups and open short jumpers?
unbelievable, at this late point in the series.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Tim Duncan is going to hit field goals in the second half. The Spurs stole their momentum. Here's a worthless prediction: Spurs will storm out of halftime, and the lead will not change again.

[RobinsontoDuncan]

I wish Antonio Daniels played like this in the 2002 playoffs....

Aggie, are you actually going to suggest that Tim Duncan isn't giving the game his all, that he is letting a friend have a big series because he doesn't want to win?

[dbreiden83080]

This second half is all about controlling the tempo make them play a slow game and defend, Duncan will have a better 2nd half if the the spurs just defend and rebound we are going to the west finals.

[boutons]

Spurs -4 paint,
-4 RBs,
but +2% in FGs.

Spurs got a little bit of mo in the 2nd qtr. Sonics cooled off.

[beirmeistr]

i quick post before the half starts.
I am a believer. rasho better get comfortable in the bench because Nazr will be a force, now and in the future.

[ALVAREZ6]

All I want to see in the 2nd half is some, tough, hard-nose defense. No more free shots, no more free lay-ups.

Make Ridnour pay for driving into the lane.

[RobinsontoDuncan]

i wonder if Rasho will ever see the floor again. I wouldn't mind him getting traded to make way for Scola.

[hump]

td needs to get his act together and start playing like a trues sa spur

[JoeChalupa]

I concur.

[Manu20]

How about Bowen with 9 points (3-4)!!!

[dbreiden83080]

Problem is they owe Rasho over 32 mil in the next 4 years he is not going to get traded, who the hell would want him with that contract. i agree Nazr is the starter next year but Spurs may need to extend Nazr only one year at 5 mil left on his deal, Rasho may become the leagues most expensive backup center, man he sucks.

[ALVAREZ6]

How about Bowen with 9 points (3-4)!!!
Steppin up!!!

in that last play with 13 seconds, bowen did a great job on ray, I was surprised he didn't hit a 3.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

TP is killing my vbookie assist wise.

[ALVAREZ6]

I think Nazr should start next year. Rasho and Barry should be traded.

[Dre_7]

Last time I checked, Nazr is this years (playoff) starter!!!!

Nazr will only get better w/ time. A whole summer and camp to get the system down. He will be even more of a beast then he is now.

Thak you Isaiah!!!!!

[Tek_XX]

tighten the screws defensivly is the key to the second half

[Dre_7]

tighten the screws defensivly is the key to the second half

Amen!
