Game Blog: Spurs @ Jazz - Nov. 19

[NASpurs]

I really want to see how the Spurs come out in the third quarter.

[silverblk mystix]

Tiago is a lot better than people think...

If he got any playing time-he would get even better.

Aww fuck it...

[Leonard Curse]

sloppy play so far but im glad the spurs are winning.

[TIMMYD!]

He looked a little too winded during the pre-game warmups. He needs to be slowly assimilated into the offense.

Slow and steady...

Doesn't get more slow and steady than not playing at all.

[bigdog]

Pop probably just re-found his man crush for Bonner because Matty started hitting shots. I hope to see Splitter get some burn in the 2nd half.

[Leonard Curse]

Tiago is a lot better than people think...

If he got any playing time-he would get even better.

Aww fuck it...

..but bbuuttt bonner puts his raptor arms up and shoots threes!! lmao yeah tiago would tear it up out there but he probably said something to pop or maybe hes not kissing his ass enough who knows with pops drunk ass

[timtonymanu]

Im getting so irritated by this fucking feed.

[Obstructed_View]

What? Hes not bad at all. This is my first time and Ive heard that he sucks but he seems fine. At least hes not overly biased or being a huge homer. Hes just calling the game as it is.

Just keep listening. He's stupider than Reggie Miller or Clyde Drexler.

[Ross Parrot]

I cringe every time the Spurs grab a defensive rebound, someone has the need to throw it half-court or dribble when there's obvious defenders around them. FML

[SA210]

Tiago is a lot better than people think...

If he got any playing time-he would get even better.

Aww fuck it...

[NASpurs]

I would laugh my ass off if Bonner starts in the second half.

[Leonard Curse]

I cringe every time the Spurs grab a defensive rebound, someone has the need to throw it half-court or dribble when there's obvious defenders around them. FML

i know what is it with this nfl influenced play?? its crazy i think pop just invented a new type of basketball haha

[SA210]

I would laugh my ass off if Bonner starts in the second half.

:pop::pctoss

[angelbelow]

Just keep listening. He's stupider than Reggie Miller or Clyde Drexler.

hahaha is that possible?

[Leonard Curse]

I would laugh my ass off if Bonner starts in the second half.

:nope no! i wont at all, but im actually expecting tiago to not play today. something smells fishy and im not talking about bonners Vagg

[Chomag]

Blair has been actually doing well in this game as well, but looks like evn alot of his minutes still got taken by Bonner.

[Obstructed_View]

hahaha is that possible?

You're gonna find out. :)

[jestersmash]

Duncan gets fouled twice (and gets the call) and these Jazz announcers supposedly have a hard time seeing the foul.

AK goes to the rim and doesn't even get touched and he clearly earned the and 1.

Even Sean (probably the biggest spurs homer) isn't this bad - he'll admit to being a homer by qualifying his statements with something along the lines of "I don't know about that but I like that call/I'll take the call."

At least the feed has been reasonably steady. That said, I think I'm going to get NBA LP TV instead of just NBA LP broadband from now on, though.

[NASpurs]

Second half starting line up include:

Manu, Jefferson, Parker, Duncan and...........



Blair!

[NASpurs]

TP with the jumper

[CFH]

TP jumper

[NASpurs]

Parker for threeeeeeeeeee

[CFH]

TP for threeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

[Refocus]

TP for threeeee

[Russ]

The Spurs are so superior to this Utah team, it would be a crime if they lose (w/o Tiago getting his minutes).

[ace3g]

Tp 3

[timtonymanu]

God AK is so ugly.

[NASpurs]

Nice hustle by Blair

[Ross Parrot]

Blair!!!

[Chomag]

PArkers shooting form has come along way. that shot looked realy good.

[Spurologist]

is it our ball?.....not too clear by the Jazz broadcast

[Spurs Brazil]

Good job DB

[TinTin]

I missed the first half, from what I gather splitter hasnt seen minutes at all?!

[Refocus]

Spurs called a timeout. I think.

[Chomag]

God AK is so ugly.


Only time in the world I regret buying a HD TV

[CFH]

I missed the first half, from what I gather splitter hasnt seen minutes at all?!

Nope, Pop loves him some Bonner. :bang

[Chomag]

I missed the first half, from what I gather splitter hasnt seen minutes at all?!

NO, so far a DNP

[CFH]

Dammit, I hate when the ball goes in and out

[Russ]

Jeff fouls Jeff.

[NASpurs]

Blair again.

[CFH]

Blair putback

[Spurs Brazil]

Attack Al Jefferson now

[NASpurs]

lol I think Blair tipped that ball to TD

[CFH]

Nice how Timmy ended up with his own miss

[Juanobili]

that's how a man rebounds

[NASpurs]

Is Al Jefferson a cromagnon?

[NASpurs]

Great offensive rebounding.

[NASpurs]

TP with the floater!

[CFH]

TP tough shot

[Refocus]

all these in and out shots are killin me lol. At least were rebounding.

[Russ]

"I don't know what Manu is upset about," says the Utah announcer after Manu gets hacked.

[CFH]

Make your free throws

[NASpurs]

Jesus that scared that shit out of me. Tim should never fall like that!

[ace3g]

Al Jeff with the elbow

[TIMMYD!]

Offensive foul on Al Jefferson.

[Obstructed_View]

Somebody needs to get teed the fuck up.

[Spurs Brazil]

good job on the boards.

Keep attacking the rim

[Seventyniner]

Given the new rules, I'm surprised the ref let Al Jefferson argue that much without a tech.

[Refocus]

Ouch Timmy ate that elbow.

[Spurologist]

Hapring: "That actually shoulda been a foul on TD"

:lol

[Ross Parrot]

"Duncan's head impeded Al's shot"

These guys are stupid!

[Chomag]

Not sure that was a foul by AJ but I'll take it.

[Obstructed_View]

How Al Jefferson gets away with that is completely beyond me.

[TIMMYD!]

Tim only needs 4 more points to pass 5-0. He needs to get those out of the way so he can focus on the 4th quarter.

[ace3g]

"dream shake" by Elson, lol

[Russ]

"I don't like this call," says the Utah announcer after "Big Al" charges into Duncan.

"The foul should have been on Duncan," says the Utah color guy.

[Spurs Brazil]

Fuck Hairpring said should be a foul on TD

FUCK YOU

[NASpurs]

An injured Matt Bonner with back spasms is in the game. Yay.

[Chomag]

Bonner in again as the first big off the bench.

[TIMMYD!]

Oh! Yay! More Matt Bonner!!

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Hapring: "That actually shoulda been a foul on TD"

:lol

I know right? They said his head was in the way.. wtf?

[angelbelow]

How Al Jefferson gets away with that is completely beyond me.

Hahahhah "Duncan's head is impeding Jefferson's shot." Thats great stuff!

[DesignatedT]

lol elson. keep giving him the ball

[Obstructed_View]

Is he stupider than Drexler yet?

[TIMMYD!]

Ugh. Whistle on GH.

[GSH]

What I want to know is where are Utah's technicals for giving the refs shit? I knew it wasn't going to be called consistently.

[8FOR!3]

LOL, Matt Harpring's lack of decent announcing impeeds my ability to watch the game.

[angelbelow]

Hes definitely funnier.

[NASpurs]

Vintage Duncan on that move.

[Obstructed_View]

God damn he's good.

[CFH]

TD off the glass

[TIMMYD!]

That was a man's move from Timmy.

[duncan228]

2 points away...

[ezau]

Matt Bonner is the first big man off the bench. Wow

[NASpurs]

TD passed DRob! Congrats to TD!

[Obstructed_View]

Nice that they were tied first.

[TIMMYD!]

One more Timmy...

Yes! Tim is the all time scorer.

[Chieflion]

He did it!

[BoricuaCJA]

All time leader of the Spurs!!! TIMMY!!!

[CFH]

Timmy :D

[AussieFanKurt]

Congrats timmy!

[Russ]

"When Duncan had two good knees," says the Utah color guy.

[angelbelow]

Congrats to Timmay!

[TIMMYD!]

I say we keep going to Tim, he wants it.

[RashoFan]

TD passed DRob! Congrats to TD!

:toast

[NASpurs]

More fts for TD

[DesignatedT]

harpring wants to suck tims cock for real.

[Spurologist]

Congrats TD!!!!! Spurs all time scoring leader

[Spurs Brazil]

Tim Duncan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats!!!

[timtonymanu]

Congrats Timmy!!

Wish I could have seen it. Damn feed.

[carina_gino20]

Timmy. :spin You are No. 1.

[8FOR!3]

It's official! Congrats Timmy, I'm glad I got to witness your career starting at the age of 6 years old. You're a guy people can look up to.

[CFH]

Damn, missed both...

[dbreiden83080]

Congrats Timmy

Best Spurs of all time..

[AussieFanKurt]

Has the game been fairly officiated?

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

yayayyyy timmy !! i am sooo soo happy

[DesignatedT]

timmy #! yay

[Danny.Zhu]

Congrats Tim Duncan!!

[Obstructed_View]

Good defense by Bonner.

[TIMMYD!]

AK pulls a shot out of his ass for the and-1.

[Chieflion]

Matt Bonner is the only guy you can use that shit spin move on.

[ace3g]

Bonner can't guard AK47

[AussieFanKurt]

bad luck bonner

[024]

that was a travel

[Russ]

The way Duncan is dominating indicates that this is game Splitter should be in!!!!!

[Seventyniner]

If the shot counts, then the foul came after AK47's third step; it was either a travel or a non-continuation.

[DesignatedT]

god damnit bonner. stop being a pussy

[angelbelow]

Everytime Bonner's in AK goes straight for the hoop. I hate how all these players get so confident when they're being guarded by Bonner.

[NASpurs]

Lucky bounce by Tony :lol

[CFH]

TP gets the bounce

[TIMMYD!]

TP gets the roll.

[Obstructed_View]

Wow, nice roll.

[AussieFanKurt]

love to luclky bounce

[timtonymanu]

Well Pop it's evident that Bonner isnt playing well.

Does Splitter have to develop a 3 pt shot to get playing time?

[Juanobili]

yes!!!!

[NASpurs]

I love this driving Jefferson when he's outside shot isn't going in

[AussieFanKurt]

fark knock down the FTs

[BoricuaCJA]

Damn make some FTs!!

[Obstructed_View]

If they lose this game they'll be able to point to missed freebies.

[DesignatedT]

good job rj

[NASpurs]

It's a tight game and all of these free throws mean a lot. Stop missing them!

[8FOR!3]

I love this driving Jefferson when he's outside shot isn't going in

Me too. He can draw a foul almost at will when he wants to.

[Borosai]

Bonner gets called for fouls simply because he's Matt Bonner. Weak calls.

[Obstructed_View]

They're required to disclose if Splitter's injured, right?

[TIMMYD!]

Fuck. Box Millsap out!

[CFH]

Dammit...

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

holy cow everyone is missing FTs

[Russ]

Bonner is playing a one man zone.

[Obstructed_View]

Wow. All that fucking whining finally paid off.

[AussieFanKurt]

correct call

[Spurologist]

wtf was Hill thinking???

[Ross Parrot]

Fair call on Hill. Take Bonner, POP! WTF

[GSH]

Bullshit on both ends.

[CFH]

Duncan putback

[AussieFanKurt]

yeah timmeh

[TIMMYD!]

They're required to disclose if Splitter's injured, right?

I don't think they are but why wouldn't you tell your fanbase if someone's hurt?

[timtonymanu]

Tim bailed out Matt there.

[NASpurs]

Bonner doesn't even want to shoot a three. What's the point of having him in?

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill fucking SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wake up

[DesignatedT]

stupid move george, what the fuck is the point of that

[TIMMYD!]

Officiating sucks right now.

[dbestpro]

Bonner keeps running off of the three point line even though he is opened.

[Obstructed_View]

Bonner doesn't even want to shoot a three. What's the point of having him in?

Don't think he could have gotten that off. He's a little slow on the trigger.

[DesignatedT]

Hill fucking SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wake up

Not impressed with him at all this season.

[ezau]

Great job keeping Bonner in

[Russ]

They're required to disclose if Splitter's injured, right?

If Splitter is on a respirator, the Spurs will list him as "day to day."

[AussieFanKurt]

fucking downtown

[NASpurs]

Bonner missed. Take him out Pop :lol

[Obstructed_View]

I love that Sean Elliott answers the trivia question on the air immediately.

[8FOR!3]

The announcer that yells every time the Jazz make a tough shot makes me want to kill somebody. Shut the fuck up man.

[ace3g]

Bonner has gone cold , bring in Splitter

[timtonymanu]

Yeah Pop Bonner deserved his minutes tonight.

[024]

man, bonner sucks.

[AussieFanKurt]

lol bonner..

[dbestpro]

Bonner is officially a liability, again.

[Death In June]

Bonner back to being Bonner.

[carina_gino20]

why is Manu giving up the ball to Matt...

[Obstructed_View]

If that floater won't bring Tiago off the bench then there's just not any hope, folks.

[CFH]

Take Bonner out already

[Chomag]

and the true Bonner that we know has returned. Welcome back from your trip in the clouds.

[PBEEZY]

Lol bonner costing us the game

[Refocus]

Pop please fucking BENCH BONNER.

[DesignatedT]

Alright. Time for bonner to go to the bench pop

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner becomes useless if he's not hitting shots, at least with Tiago you can expect some defense and rebounding.

[Pauleta14]

Please Pop put Tony back!!!!

[timtonymanu]

2 pt lead. Thanks to Bonner!

[Spurologist]

I'm sure the Jazz are happy about the whistles now...

why doesn't Bonner pullup instead of trying that failure of a floater

[Ross Parrot]

Bonner should be out by now.

[NASpurs]

Hill for threeeeeeeeeee

[CFH]

Hill 3!

[TIMMYD!]

Hill 33333333333333333333

[AussieFanKurt]

thassit hilly

[ace3g]

nice pass from Dice to Hill for 3

[Juanobili]

shittt

[dbestpro]

This is why people get upset with Bonner. He is way too inconsistant from game to game and is mentally weak when challenged.

[timtonymanu]

Our bench is ass tonight.

[DesignatedT]

good shot george.

[GinobiliForTres]

ridiculous. Jazz getting all these and 1s. we haven't gotten one yet.

[Obstructed_View]

I'm sure the Jazz are happy about the whistles now...

why doesn't Bonner pass instead of trying that failure of a floater

fixed.

[AussieFanKurt]

Good block matty

[Obstructed_View]

Matty with the block.

[CFH]

Not good shot selection Hill

[ace3g]

Bonner with the block, but he shouldn't be out there`

[Juanobili]

Matt is hustlin!!!!

[boutons_deux]

Spurs 4/14 3G, can't maintain a lead.

Manu + Matt = 1 / 11 3G

[Russ]

Credit where credit is due, nice D by Bonner at the rack.

[DarkGinobili]

Bonner block!

[024]

wtf is with these fouls.

[Juanobili]

no fuckin way....

[Spurminator]

Not good shot selection Hill

2 for 1

[TIMMYD!]

Another And-1 for the Jazz! Holy fuck stop fouling already!

[GSH]

Bonner hustling is ass off. People acting like he's the only one to miss a shot tonight.

[timtonymanu]

Goddamn too many lucky shots.

Well Pop there's your favorite white boy.

[CFH]

Maaaaaaaaaaan

[Spurs Brazil]

stupid shot Hill, WTF

[Chomag]

man I could even hear that slap through my TV. that had to hurt.

[Spurologist]

Fuckin Bonner :wtf

[dbestpro]

Neal :(

[Obstructed_View]

You can't call the foul on Neal and give continuation.

[ace3g]

this where not having Anderson hurts, especially with Neal not playing well

[CFH]

2 for 1

Realized that afterward

[DesignatedT]

wow.

[CFH]

Damn, Manu made the 3 too

[NASpurs]

This game is really frustrating. Armchair coaches are going to have their heads explode.

[AussieFanKurt]

ahh good drawing of the foul manuuu

[Chomag]

Bonner hustling is ass off. People acting like he's the only one to miss a shot tonight.

Yes, Bonner does allways hussle and try hard.. thats never in question.

[Obstructed_View]

this where not having defense hurts, especially with Neal not playing well

[AussieFanKurt]

big 4th needed

[Chomag]

This game is really frustrating. Armchair coaches are going to have their heads explode.

What would you like for us to talk about?

[Spurologist]

You can't call the foul on Neal and give continuation.

The refs fed off the crowd

[boutons_deux]

Spurs lost 2nd and 3rd qtrs

[timtonymanu]

well that felt like a 09-10 Spurs 3rd quarter.

Instead of building on the lead, they let Utah back in it.

[NASpurs]

Utah scoring by quarter

1st 14
2nd 26
3rd 28

Hope it's not a trend.

[timtonymanu]

well that felt like a 09-10 Spurs 3rd quarter.

Instead of building on the lead, they let Utah back in it.

[Obstructed_View]

Bonner hustling is ass off. People acting like he's the only one to miss a shot tonight.

Yeah, because hustle is all that matters. You don't have to rebound or score or defend. That's why it's called hustleball. Oh, wait, no it's not!

[GSH]

Utah expended a lot of energy on that run. All the Spurs need is for someone to step up and hit a couple of shots. RJ?

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 2 after the 3rd

Less fouls in the 4th and let's make some 3s

[CFH]

Big 4th quarter please

[GSH]

The refs fed off the crowd

+1

+another 1

[8FOR!3]

Stupid shot earlier for Hill, but at least he's looking more confident taking shots whenever now. It'll pay off in the long run. We've got to finish this game though, we're neck in neck with a better 4th quarter team. Someone's got to step up and finish tonight. I like the way Bonner's playing, but I also liked the way Blair was playing earlier.

[timtonymanu]

Man I miss JA right now.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

bonner hesitated on his 3s today and why is he still in there... and why is manu forcing the ball to bonner....

[Russ]

12 points off the bench by the Spurs won't get it done.

[DesignatedT]

Overall the bench has been pretty weak tonight. Would have been nice to see Splitter in there but too late now. I would actually like to see Pop go back to Blair here in the start of the 4th

[Nathan89]

Spurs were in the penalty at the 6min mark in the third and still gave up two points of their lead.

[fred33]

Since tony is out

[carina_gino20]

We need more Manu trips to the line.

[angelbelow]

Is Bonner the new Finley?

[jestersmash]

Bonner is infuriatingly frustrating. And so is Pop for keeping Splitter out when we actually need him right now. The match up calls for it.

[Leonard Curse]

bonners D is intense whoa....... jesus christ pop grow a pair

[Obstructed_View]

Stupid shot earlier for Hill, but at least he's looking more confident taking shots whenever now. It'll pay off in the long run. We've got to finish this game though, we're neck in neck with a better 4th quarter team. Someone's got to step up and finish tonight. I like the way Bonner's playing, but I also liked the way Blair was playing earlier.

The Jazz aren't necessarily a good 4th quarter team. I'm aware of their comebacks, but it's really easy to just let it fly when you're down by double digits. I'd like to see how they execute when the game's close.

[Death In June]

Fuck off, Bonner.

[Obstructed_View]

Did he miss the rim completely?

[Spurologist]

Buck Fonner

[timtonymanu]

Goddamnit Bonner

[ace3g]

really that ref that far away from the play is making that call

[TIMMYD!]

Bonner is ice cold right now, can't hit shit. Get him out of the game Pop!!!!!!!!

[CFH]

Bad call imho

[ogait]

Manu and Bonner on a contest on who can shoot it worst tonight.

[DesignatedT]

Bonner is way off. get him out
