Spurs vs. Suns Game Two -- Game Blog

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

We need to put Nash through the pick and roll every time down on defense. EVERY TIME.

[50 cent]

I agree AHF.

[WalterBenitez]

come on Tony!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Shit Tony, that was horrible pass.

[50 cent]

Damn, 2 chance to take the lead and we get nothing.

[1369]

So, since I'm stuck here down in Rockport and my rented Apt only has basic cable (no ESPN) and fucking WOAI's signal sucks ass at this hour and there's no carrier of the Spurs radio network out of Corpus, are the Spurs playing sloppy, are the Suns playing that well, or is the dreaded Stern conspiracy for parity rearing its ugly head again?

[boutons]

did ya'll see Nazr on tony's missed 3?
He's fucking standing watching the shot!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

This is so frustrating. We beat Phoenix in game 1 by wearing down Nash and Amare by making them play defense. Why the free pass tonight? I think Nash might be the only guy in the league worse than Shaq at guarding the pick and roll.

[Tek_XX]

Is this one of those games where we can't get over the hump?

[Dre_7]

Come on Spurs! No stupid turnovers! Keep up the good D, get something done on the offensive end, and it will be all good!

[50 cent]

The Spurs just aren't playing crisp. Making too many mistakes and turning the ball over. Still though, this is right there for the taking. Nash is exhausted and it is becoming obvious that he is slowing down a little. We can do this!

[WalterBenitez]

3 spurs with 20+ pts, we need BB or RB!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

:lol if we had malik rose, he'd have 25 boards by now[/boutons]

As much as you bitch about boxing out, I'd think you could have recognized on that play that Amare was indeed blocking Nazr out.

[nkdlunch]

Come on people....I've been telling you why the Spurs would be lucky to win game 2. That is the fact..... PHX did not win all those games by default. The Spurs need to do everything in their power to make sure that the Suns do not run up the score the way they have during the regular season. Now it is up to Pop to make sure that they don't. Everyone was happy the way game 1 turned out, and justifably so.... But, now the things that the Spurs should have been doing in game 1 and game 2 are now coming apparant....Do not blame the player's.....It is the coach that should have caught these things in during film review.

translation please

[boutons]

Spurs aren't scoring very well, so it better be shutdown defense to keep it close.

[alan1]

If the Spurs play like they should. It will come down too who has the ball last. That is the one thing you should look for when playing on an oppent's gym.

[GSH]

He should send Nash a bill for the piggy back ride.

You shut the fuck up boutons. Trying to clown on Nazr about fumbled passes when the guy has ONE turnover. Do you realize how fucking stupid you sound?

The only little thing you know about is the one in your pants.

Interesting post, AHP.... now go to your happy place.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

to be honest with you guys prior to the game i woulda been surprise had SA won gm 2 cuz phx knows how important this game is in terms of their season hinges on it. but the fact that this game is so winnable especially with td in foul trouble its gonna be REAL frustrating to drop this game and not put the suns really on their heels in a 0-2 hole. oh well, still plenty of time left! hopefully we can attack inside and play DEFENSE we should be good!

[boutons]

Spurs aren't unlucky tongiht, they just aren't hustling their butts into killer mode.

[Dre_7]

:lol if we had malik rose, he'd have 25 boards by now[/boutons]

:lmao

[Tek_XX]

Tony looks tired, which leads to mistakes

[50 cent]

Nash is out. Here is our chance.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Geezus, quit feeding it to Tim if he's going to shoot those weak ass fadeaways.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

come on tim, step up to the fucking amare challenge.

[alan1]

Again...It comes down to the sub pattern..... Did you ever see Michael and Scottie on the bench, with the game in question? Did you ever see Bird and Mchale on the bench? Magic and Kareem?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Yo boutons, I got your mom on her knees right here[/nazr]

Amare drives, gets stripped by *Nazr*

[JustSpurs]

Man, we really need to shut-down Amare.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Nazr just stripped Amare, but boutons is too busy sucking off his Malik Rose blowup doll to notice.

[50 cent]

Again...It comes down to the sub pattern..... Did you ever see Michael and Scottie on the bench, with the game in question? Did you ever see Bird and Mchale on the bench? Magic and Kareem?
What are you talking about? Tim is out there. Manu is on the bench. Settle down.

[Dre_7]

Again...It comes down to the sub pattern..... Did you ever see Michael and Scottie on the bench, with the game in question? Did you ever see Bird and Mchale on the bench? Magic and Kareem?

Dude, what are you talking about? Tim is on the floor right now, he just had a dunk and a 20 footer. What game ya watchin?

[atlfan25]

Spurs aren't scoring very well, so it better be shutdown defense to keep it close.
i guess if having 92 pts in early 4th quarter isn't scoring well

[alan1]

You can all blame the refs for this, but in the end, had the subs not been inserted, the game would be out of reach.

[nkdlunch]

^^ :lol

[WalterBenitez]

6 mins of good D and SA will be 2-0

[Dre_7]

Speakin of Manu, when he comes back in, he needs to get it going!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Substitution boy had a point for a little while in the third quarter, but he obviously isn't watching the fourth.

[Tek_XX]

dEFENSE DEFENSE DEFENSE!!!!

[Dre_7]

6 mins of good D and SA will be 2-0

Yeah, but they also need to put the ball in the basket!

[WalterBenitez]

Manu with only 3 FT, this guy MUST attack!!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Whenever Nash comes back in, you run his ass through the pick and roll every fucking time.

Come on Pop, make it happen.

[ballhog]

Are the Suns the biggest whiners or what after every call not their way?

[WalterBenitez]

Yeah, but they also need to put the ball in the basket!

ooops, you are right; but let them play some hard D

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Nash is back in. PICK AND ROLL POP.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Brent fucking Barry!!!!!!!! Great save and dish to Parker for the layup!

[ballhog]

Great play

[cqsallie]

I've been watching basketball for longer than most of you people have been alive and I have never, never, never, before in my life seen a player go to the sidelines and lie down on numerous foam-filled pillows. What the hell is that about?
Steve Nash, lolling around on pillows... Can you imagine Tim Duncan doing this type of shit?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Again, Nash is tearing us up. Trap him on the pick and roll Pop. At the other end, put him through it defensively.

Speak of the devil, Parker puts Nash through pick and roll, gets a layup.

[ballhog]

shut up about nash already. Can't play d

[WalterBenitez]

Come on Tony ... show Nash you are good enough to stop them

[atlfan25]

good D on that last play

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Brent BARRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ballhog]

barry

[WalterBenitez]

Barrrrrrrrrrrry for 3

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

T him up ref, fuck this.

[ballhog]

dumbass

[JustSpurs]

barry barry barry!!!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

T up D'Antoni too while you're at it zebra.

Why the fuck are the refs letting the coaches give a dissertation like this?

[alan1]

The problem is... They should both be on the floor. Apparently, you have not been watching earlier when the Spurs where up and had the chance to put the game away.

[WalterBenitez]

T on Amare!!! he's loosing his head, which is good

[50 cent]

D'Antoni is a fucking clown.

[milkyway21]

:elephant

duncan 19 pts 2nd half despite foul trouble.

we're going to win this guys!

Parker vs Nash SHOWDOWN:lol
Brent with a 3!........................

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Shiiiiiiiiiiit Barry.

[ballhog]

Have Horry shoot the t

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I had a bad feeling that we'd miss that T.

[nkdlunch]

Fucking Barry, Manu wasn't in right? that's why he didn't shoot it?

[50 cent]

Aren't we up 2?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Well, at least the fans aren't chanting bullshit. :lol

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

D'Antoni's fixing to get rung up here.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

What were you thinking Tim? Dumb foul.

[ballhog]

uggggg

[WalterBenitez]

Come on Pop ... Tim guarding Nash???

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

:lol offensive foul on Amare, saw that one coming a mile away.

[ballhog]

'bout time

[alan1]

Spurs are playing defense finally. What game are u watching?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

The Suns are working on completely losing their composure here.

Robert Horry has another sucker play in him still, I can feel it.

[WalterBenitez]

Amare is loosing his head!!! I love that

[ballhog]

bitch some more Phx.

[ballhog]

3 pt lead.

[WalterBenitez]

Give the ball to Manu

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Tony has GOT to keep Nash out of the lane.

Bad shot Tim.

[ballhog]

No 20 footers Tim

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Holy shit, Pop just bitched out Tim.

I believe

[JustSpurs]

I have no fingernails left!

[cqsallie]

Wanna bet that this is the toughest game the Suns have ever played?

[JustSpurs]

Nazr to take Timmy place....a-wheeeee

[smackdaddy11]

Holy shit, Pop just bitched out Tim.

Not bad for a "softie"

[50 cent]

D'Antoni should have been T'd up. How many times did he say BULLSHIT??

[WalterBenitez]

I have no fingernails left!

Be calm .. we have a good chance i could feel it

[ballhog]

shit

[Tek_XX]

nO THREE POINTERS TONY

[ballhog]

How can D'Antoni get away with bitching at the ref like that?

[nkdlunch]

FUck Pop sat Tim down!!! Pop is mad as shit right now

[Dre_7]

From what Ive seen these 1st 2 games, regardless of what happens tonight, Spurs will win this series!

[Tek_XX]

just ram manu down there throat, fuck all this 20ft shit

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

How can D'Antoni get away with bitching at the ref like that?

To be fair, Pop was granted a bitchfest during one of the earlier timeouts.

[cqsallie]

Here comes the big change-up from Pop. No time for the Suns to adjust.

[atlfan25]

just ram manu down there throat, fuck all this 20ft shit
i dont see why not :fro

[WalterBenitez]

From what Ive seen these 1st 2 games, regardless of what happens tonight, Spurs will win this series!

[WalterBenitez]

[atlfan25]

[alan1]

It still comes down to coaching.....The Spurs had the lead and let it slip away.... more than one time....Teams don't get a chance to put teams away like this.... It comes down to coaching again....Pop has the whole town believing in his bull shit..... It is so sad.

I want everyone to remember when Steven Hunter called that time out when he was tied up by the Spurs. Who says defense don't matter,

[WalterBenitez]

Well, who said that 3-0 is ... too much???

[50 cent]

Let's go get that 3-0!

[boutons]

Cinderella SUNS, the clock is striking MIDNIGHT.

[efrem1]

Let's win Saturday and put this puppy to bed.

[hump]

We Are The Champions, My Friends

[milkyway21]

playing the Suns is always been a pleasure...no whinings no bashing from their players..just plain basketball!

i thought Marion could have made a difference tonight. Still a disappointment to me. Suns big 3 used to be hot. But not just hot enough for the Spurs...

CONGRATS SPURS!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

GREAT win but lets not get carried away. we were up 2-0 on lakers and we know what happend, and we were up 2-0 on the sonics and we know what happend (yes we ended up winning the series but that was a big hiccup for us regardless). yes the next 2 are at home and we should be happy but still 2 games to go anything can happen, lets take it one game at a time.

WAY TO GO SPURS!

[50 cent]

We Are The Champions, My Friends
We still have to go through the Champs first my friend. But things are looking pretty good.

[WalterBenitez]

Let's win Saturday and put this puppy to bed.

Well boys, you there let them feel some NOISE!!!!

3-0 is very possible

[hump]

Please People Dont Bring Our Hopes Down Just Be Happy

[boutons]

"we were up 2-0 on lakers and we know what happend"

... and going to LA.

Here we're going home to the SBC slaughterhouse.

[atlfan25]

2-0
thats that shit

[smeagol]

Nice!!!!!!!!! 2 - 0. Big games by a number of guys.

Who is this clown, Alan?

[WalterBenitez]

"we were up 2-0 on lakers and we know what happend"

... and going to LA.

Here we're going home to the SBC slaughterhouse.

COme on, be optimistic

[Guru of Nothing]

WELL!! So far, the magic CD has overcome late 8-point and 9-point deficits in the first two games.

[dav4463]

2-0 is a lot better than 0-2 ! Enjoy the moment ! GO SPURS GO !!!

[TMSKILZ]

Thank you Spurs, made my days a lot better with these wins!

Manu eres un STUD!!!!!!!!

[cqsallie]

D'Antonio has no doubt that the Suns can go into the SBC Center and get the job done.
I think that's cool and I love his chuztpah, but it ain't gonna happen, coach.

[twincam]

They (Suns) can't even get it done at their home court. Not going to happen.

It's over...I don't care if they steal one in S.A., they will NOT win the series down 0-2.

Remember what I've been preaching people, DEFENSE and POISE!

I cannot stress that enough!

[Hook Dem]

Don't expect the Suns to mail it in and we wouldn't want them to. We'll beat 'em through bump & grind!

[TMSKILZ]

Guys this series not over until the Spurs are 1st to 4 wins!!!

Remember last yrs Spurs against the Fakerz & the Yankees against the Redsuxs!

Go Spurz!!!!!!!!!

[SLOVENIAN 8]

Go Spurs lets win in 4 games! The finals here we come! :smokin

[fonzy16]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[milkyway21]

Yes..... The player's resuce Pop again...What will it take to have this town realize that Pop sucks as a coach?..hmmnn, sounds like someone from _allas?

what do you think?:rolleyes
