Game Blog: Spurs @ Hornets - Nov. 28

[angelbelow]

8 minutes of Chris Quinn, George Hill, Gary Neal, Matt Bonner, and Splitter :lol

You mean at the same time???? I hope not...

[Refocus]

Godlike.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Guess Who? Manu!

[NASpurs]

Hill with the layup by the Manu steal!

[CFH]

Alright defense! Hill on the layup!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

GH3 bitches

[hitmanyr2k]

Ginobili another score and more great defense causing the Hill fast break score.

[ducks]

And now the threes are falling. Manu is an unbelievable playmaker, and his 3 is looking as good as ever.

manu has 8 assist tp has 7

[DesignatedT]

cant believe the turnaround here. Small ball on offense and defense FTW

[NASpurs]

:lmao Whorenuts got lucky

[BanditHiro]

bail out

[Tp9gospursgo]

Wasn't that out of bounds?

[bigdog]

Of course West would get bailed out with the foul call after the great Spurs defense.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

goddamn bail out

[baseline bum]

Spurs gotta have Sean call the first halfs of games and Malik the second.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

You mean at the same time???? I hope not...


I don't think it was the full 8 minutes but they played at least 5 ALL together.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Hornets to the line again.ugh.

[CFH]

lolwut

[Crookshanks]

What a BS call

[jestersmash]

I like Malik I don't know why some of you all say he's bad.

[Spurs Brazil]

terrible call

Great D

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Mcdyess!!!!!

[SCdac]

No Bonner has been a pleasant surprise. Not because I don't like him, but because the results it brings.

[Juanobili]

Diceee

[NASpurs]

Spurs can't miss! Dice

[CFH]

Dice J

[baseline bum]

Nice shot Dice from the baseline

[angelbelow]

I don't think it was the full 8 minutes but they played at least 5 ALL together.

Oh my... i'm glad i missed that AND I started watching when we have the lead lol

[BanditHiro]

west with a foul of course no call

[Juanobili]

thats right. better foul.

[ducks]

But it's all thanks to parker who passes the ball right??? Oh wait, he is benched because he's a ballhog

tp 7 assist manu 8
hill missed splitter 4 times not tp

tp always rest at start of 4

everyone knows that

[NASpurs]

Hill with the jumper and the foul!!

[024]

[Juanobili]

[CFH]

Hill AND 1!

[DesignatedT]

Hill!!!!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

GH3 and 1

[baseline bum]

Nice shot George! Sweet!

[Crookshanks]

Woo hoo - time for a 4-point play!

[BanditHiro]

[Tp9gospursgo]

CP3 flops again...

[angelbelow]

Damn it Chris Fall

[Cherry]

wwwsaaaaaaaaaaa HILL 3 +1 ;)

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pookenstein]

george 4 point play

[Juanobili]

[timtonymanu]

Now we cant miss. We are heating up at the right time.

[Cessation]

wow hilll, showing your weiner to the hornets like dat, and 1

[Refocus]

Bad spacing on that possession but hopefully they keep up the D!

[tuncaboylu]

Very good, never give up, well done!!!

[Chase_the_Bass]

Defense! Nice

[hitmanyr2k]

Very active defense by the Spurs. Feet are moving and hands are flying :lol

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

george 4 point play


Como?

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

holy shit everyone is soo active on defense...its amazin...

[CFH]

Excellent defense

[NASpurs]

Championship level defense that we've seen like three times this year

[baseline bum]

Incredible defensive possession there

[024]

good defense.

[Crookshanks]

The shooting percentages are just about reversed from the 1st half. Spurs took awhile to warm up - but now they're cooking with gas.

[DesignatedT]

lol small ball just destroyed new orleans. crazy

[boutons_deux]

just fricking wow

What a swing!!!

[Cessation]

wow incredible small ball d by the spurs

[BlairForceDejuan]

no fuckin way!!!!

lmao that sig

[TimDunkem]

I like Malik I don't know why some of you all say he's bad.
"And people talk a lot of bullshit!"

[Refocus]

This small ball defense is seriously the best I've seen out of the Spurs in a long time.

It's more effort than anything though, so hopefully Pop doesn't fall in love with smallball again.

[Tp9gospursgo]

I like Hills aggressiveness these past few games. thats wat we've been missing from him.

[baseline bum]

Just please no Bonner after the timeout.

[pookenstein]

impressive defense in the second half.

[Chomag]

So trade Bonner, Blair, and splitter? Thsi team needs no bigs. :lol:downspin:

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

George Hill has done an awesome job on D tonight IMO.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

10 point lead. This one is ours.

[VBM]

Just tuning in...looks like a damn good game

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

bandithiro, are all your 1,347 posts some sort of whining shit?

[Crookshanks]

27 point turn around. Now I like this!

[SuperManu!!!]

tp 7 assist manu 8
hill missed splitter 4 times not tp

tp always rest at start of 4

everyone knows that

That's it dude. I'm blocking you. I hope everyone does the same thing. YOU SIR, ARE A FUCKING TROLL!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Defense in the 2nd half is damn great. rotations are perfect

[boutons_deux]

the defense is smothering, giving NO daylight, sniffing their belly buttons relentlessly

[tuncaboylu]

Parker + Manu = 15 assists:)

[Juanobili]

50 - 23 in the 2nd

wow.

[Death In June]

The contractually obligated; "Small ball is shitting on spurstalk."

[jestersmash]

23 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 block, and 0 turnovers in 29 minutes.

[spurspokesman]

Hill always does a good job defending paul. He should be on paul at all times

[ducks]

just fricking wow

What a swing!!!but you said spurs could not do it
17 point swing yeah right

true right now it is a 27 point swing!

[Cessation]

no bonner or blair in second half, and we owning, who would have thought??? hmm..

[timtonymanu]

Small ball is helping us today. Hopefully Pop doesnt think it's something we can use against all teams though.

[Banzai]

Spurs spanking right now.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

It looks like Hill is doing stellar again tonight! Maybe he's breaking out of the slump or something.

[pookenstein]

Como?

no just an and 1. lp commentators said it was a 3 first. got a little bit too exited...

[Venti Quattro]

Spurs tappin that Bee Show ass

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Gary Neal!!!

[NASpurs]

Gary Neal!

[CFH]

Neal floater!

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Thank you Neal!

[Cessation]

yes definetly small ball taking huge dump on spurs talk, mouth wide open

[angelbelow]

Nice drive after the travel Neal.

[hitmanyr2k]

I was about to shit on Neal for not swinging the ball to RJ but he made a nice aggressive drive.

[Crookshanks]

Spurs shooting 95% in the 4th, Hornets shooting 25%. What a difference

[Nathan89]

Rj pumped

[NASpurs]

That was all fucking ball by George!

[CFH]

Lucky bounce...

[AussieFanKurt]

[Spurs Brazil]

[AussieFanKurt]

[baseline bum]

Nice board by Neal

[Cessation]

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

[AussieFanKurt]

[ducks]

[bigdog]

LOL @ the crowd booing the refs calling the push in the back by Okafor.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Sink these 2 free throws

[Cessation]

[TDfan2007]

I haven't seen defense like this in years. Maybe I'm just being fooled by the moment.

[CFH]

Come on now, gonna have to hit shots

[hitmanyr2k]

What's with Parker and all these threes this year? That's not his game.

[NASpurs]

:lmao David West

Great D by RJ!

[tuncaboylu]

Keep defense up, well done guys!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

[tuncaboylu]

Now NOH is in the verge of losing, who could guess that after 1st half :)

[Crookshanks]

Nice block!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AussieFanKurt]

[ffadicted]

Whether or not tony, tim and manu play well, you can usually always judge how well the spurs are doing by RJ's production lol

[AussieFanKurt]

And1 Dicky

[timtonymanu]

Fuck Yeah!!! RJ and 1.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

This totally made by day. :)

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Chris Paul is such a douche bag

[tuncaboylu]

These guys can DEFEND. Well done guys.

[pookenstein]

[maddnezz]

Dont know why everyone is so worried about David west he is garbage!

[Spurs Brazil]

TD with a very good 2nd half

[ducks]

Tony really looks bad.

[DesignatedT]

nice pass tony

[CFH]

Too easy for Duncan :lol

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

[spurspokesman]

[Banzai]

Good win Spurs.

[Nathan89]

Best half of the year.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Where is BRHornet.....

[NickiRasgo]

31-11 4th Quarter scoring.

[AussieFanKurt]

yeaha boizzzz

[will_spurs]

2nd assist in a row for Parker... nice to see the A-team on the court to close out the game.

[BanditHiro]

Dont know why everyone is so worried about David west he is garbage!

well now he is when RJ defends him

[boutons_deux]

Who were those first-half frauds in black?

[DJ Mbenga]

wow just saw boxscore. jack is a waste of talent. they should have kept peja

[NASpurs]

Hornets 7-0 at home and the Spurs are 6-0 on the road. Something has gotta give.

[Crookshanks]

I turned the sound back up - now it's funny listening to the Hornets announcers.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Tony may be struggling to score, but he is setting up his teammates nicely. Which is what a PG should do.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Good win Spurs.

Thank you sir :toast

[tuncaboylu]

Tony is not very bad tonight, all around play despite poor shooting.

[Horse]

Wow amazing turnaround!

[ChuckD]

Hill always does a good job defending paul. He should be on paul at all times

He does better when he picks him up 3/4 or 1/2 court, and ballhawks him. The times he picks him up near the 3 point line, bad things happen.

[Spurs Brazil]

This is a FANTASTIC 4th quarter, just perfect

[AussieFanKurt]

Where is BRHornet.....

at the game

[BanditHiro]

Where is BRHornet.....

he is seeing this live in person probably crying

[CFH]

Where is BRHornet.....

At the game

[siraulo23]

Game is pretty much over, spurs wont score in bunches with this NO defense even if the spurs get some stops

Jinxd the hornets

[tuncaboylu]

Where is my victory cigar? Bring Splitter into the game Pop!!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Who were those first-half frauds in black?


Quinn, Neal, Hill, Bonner, Splitter

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Go ahead and admit it ducks, this one is on Manu. I know you can do it. Come on :lol

[ducks]

Where is BRHornet.....

[NASpurs]

31-11 fourth quarter :wow

[Trill Clinton]

Dont know why everyone is so worried about David west he is garbage!


C'mon man give West some credit, dude is not garbage.

[ducks]

Go ahead and admit it ducks, this one is on Manu. I know you can do it. Come on :lol

manu is not the reason spurs won
it is the d in the second half
right now hornets have 27 points second half they had 27 in 2 quarter

9 assist for tp

6 rebounds
2 steals
8 assist for manu
2 steals
6 rebounds

[Cessation]

I turned the sound back up - now it's funny listening to the Hornets announcers.

[NASpurs]

[CFH]

Quinn 3!

[Drewlius]

Christopher Quinn

[Dex]

The most exciting thing about this team?

They have a switch, and they know when to hit it.

Last year's team, as good as it was, rarely seemed to make it out of 2nd gear.

[DesignatedT]

Chris mfin quinnnnnnn

[VBM]

Ha...Chris Quinn sighting

[Chomag]

Gotta give this game to RJ. He was great

[siraulo23]

40-15 run, holy fuck

[VBM]

Alright...back to football

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

manu is not the reason spurs won
it is the d in the second half
right now hornets have 27 points second half they had 27 in 2 quarter


Come on man, Without Manu in that 3rd Q making plays the comeback isn't possible.

[Spurs Brazil]

Quinn 3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

[ducks]

[GSH]

That may be the most perfect half of basketball I've ever seen played.

[benefactor]

It will be blowout...


The spurs fucking suck.


This game is over.


That's game, the Spurs are done.


Spurs win streak was fool's gold, signifying nothing.


Man I called off work for this..... :(


Game is pretty much over, spurs wont score in bunches with this NO defense even if the spurs get some stops


Bullshit. Game is over.

Hornets just being assholes and exposing our defense.

Spurs didn't come to play at all. Oh well 3rd place it is.


Spurs gonna score by 17+ in 2nd half? yeah, right




































































Perhaps this team will get back on the bus and the Spurs will run out on the floor in the second half.
:toast

[Fabbs]

Most excellent beatdown in the 2nd half.
Props Spurs!
Even you Poop for taking out your boyfriend BonBon!!

[baseline bum]

Spurs just pouring it on now :lol

[Creation88]

hell fucking yes! incredible effort on both ends in the 2nd half!! amazing win.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Udoka MISSES!!

[CFH]

Damn you Udoka, could've been 3 in a row :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

[AussieFanKurt]

[Venti Quattro]

[Tp9gospursgo]

What a great comeback. I love my Spurs!

[Texas_Ranger]

lol Hornets

[ducks]

spurs shot 41% first half
they shot 48% for game

tp made more plays because he got more assist

but manu gets the credit whatever

[BanditHiro]

best win of the season way better than the timberwolves one

[spurspokesman]

Gotta give this game to RJ. He was great

I second that. This is when I judge rj. He was boss. Good game rrrjjjj

[NASpurs]

The bad thing about this game... this gives Pop more reason to run small ball. :(

[AussieFanKurt]

lol udoka

[Dex]

Spurs up their average. :elephant

[Bukefal]

14-2 baby! Yeahhh. Thank god for the comeback! Go Spurs Go!

[ducks]

[Dex]

[timtonymanu]

Need i say a cliche statement: Best win of the season.

[CFH]

Another great comeback, love this team :D

[Crookshanks]

Payback is sooooooooooooo sweet! Man, did our boys in black put a beatdown on the Hornets in the 2nd half.

[Chomag]

That may be the most perfect half of basketball I've ever seen played.

Ya crazy game. I think Spurs just had their worst half and their best half of this season all in one game. :lol
