Game Blog: Spurs @ Nuggets - Dec. 16

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

[DPG21920]

Spurs will get mugged here and no call.

[Dex]

So that's how you fuck up that situation.

[Cessation]

looks like ginobli was hit

[GSH]

Not taking a time out there, they deserve to lose.

[Capt Bringdown]

Worse loss of the season
Goddamn Dice is a bad passer

[ElNono]

We had a timeout, WTF... amateur stuff there

[Jelloisjigglin]

Gino another game winner?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Brain fart by Dice, but Manu was hacked by JR for no call.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Manu sucks

That was Mcdyess

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

what just happened...

[Avitus1]

Get the ball to Tim!

[Dex]

Ginobili was pushed forward by JR when Dice threw the pass. That's why it hit him in the face.

[jimo2305]

u have got to be kidding me..

[AussieFanKurt]

Not a veteran move

[tuncaboylu]

I really can 't believe that...

[siraulo23]

gary neal ftw?

[awktalk]

Bonner or Timmy would have never made that mistake. Mother fucking Dyess

[Frenzy]

Drive. Draw Foul

[DPG21920]

Definitely no foul there on Denver, just a good play by JR, bad play by Dice.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Ginobili flashing to McDyess made Dice pass the stupid pass.

No need to rush it....we could have just taken our time and then called TO

Silly turnover there. Mental weakness.

[oh crap]

gino

[ElNono]

Manu!!!!

[Johnny RIngo]

Manu!!!!!!

[BoricuaCJA]

Manuuuu!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

manu manu lollllll

[Crookshanks]

I thought the Spurs had this one - and then they let Melo have the easy lay up. And then the HUGE mental mistake

[Capt Bringdown]

Hands of fucking stone, McDice
Fuck you Dice, and Fuck you Pop for not taking a TO

How dumb can you get?

[tah]

frickin manu!!

[007nites]

MAnu MOtherfucking Ginobili!

[GSH]

Ginobili was pushed forward by JR when Dice threw the pass. That's why it hit him in the face.

Doesn't matter. We had a time out and didn't take it. Amateur stuff.

[davemaniscool]

what a freakin shot!

[4>0rings]

Gino was fucking laughing :lmao

[DPG21920]

Manu! :lmao How did he make that? That was a foul as well.

[jimo2305]

[Avitus1]

[Cessation]

[DPG21920]

That was definitely a foul on that as well. Manu should be at the line.

[awktalk]

Jesus Manu was SO FUCKING FOULED ON THAT SHOT

[HarlemHeat37]

Afflalo clearly fucking fouled Manu there, no call..

These refs are atrocious..

[timtonymanu]

[Truckules]

Manu giveth and Manu taketh away

[duncan228]

One more stop..hopefully the ball won't lie here, fucking refs..

[NASpurs]

This is brutal. I'm going to close my eyes on the last possession, maybe turn off my tv. AHHH

[Crookshanks]

That was definitely a foul on that as well. Manu should be at the line.

But DICK Bavetta and his crew won't call it.

[siraulo23]

[GSH]

Manu steals the inbounds...c'mon.

[Trill Clinton]

http://static.funnyjunk.com/gifs/269_crazy_black_kid_surprise_birthday3.gif

[Capt Bringdown]

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

[ace3g]

[NRHector]

get the fuck off the court

[Ginobili2Duncan]

There is your call

[DPG21920]

Manu is a winner. Plain and simple.

[TD 21]

OFFENSIVE FOUL CARMELO ANTHONY! AND GEORGE KARL CANNOT BELIEVE THE CALL!

For those of you that don't know, it's an old Walton line.

[tuncaboylu]

That's the game.

Ball don 't lie.

[007nites]

Get to the plane quick!

[024]

MANU FUCKING GINOBILI!! damn.

[Dex]

And Denver fans continue their love affair with Manu Ginobili.

[Crookshanks]

Offensive foul on Melo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sisk]

that's game... holy shit

[hitmanyr2k]

Ginobili with the game winner ON BOTH ENDS :lol :lol :lol

That's a BAD MF.

[Spurologist]

Zero time left!

[210Max]

manu ginobili mufuckawwww

[TJastal]

Just bad luck, if McDyess would have thrown it to Ginobili's left hand he would have caught it eyes closed. Manu isn't particularily adept with his right hand. Not McDyess' fault you jackasses.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Manu manu manu manu!!!!

[Budkin]

Manu baby saves the game!!!!!

[GSH]

Fuck off Ducks... Manu is the man!!!!!!

[Trainwreck2100]

lol the audience didn't know

[Hooks]

That's right bitch, that's right!

[davemaniscool]

refs finally made a correct call

[timtonymanu]

Manu with two clutch plays. Hit the gamewinner and creates the foul.

Fuck you ducks.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Ginobili flashing to McDyess made Dice pass the stupid pass.

No need to rush it....we could have just taken our time and then called TO

Silly turnover there. Mental weakness.

Tiredness.

And Manu saves the game yet again with a buzzer-beating charge call. Suck it up, ducks! :lmao

[ShoogarBear]

LMAO. RJ actually knew immediately they were calling the charge.

[Texas_Ranger]

hahahhahah 0.4

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

refs finally made a right call the entire night..

[AussieFanKurt]

Lol rofl at that

[Pauleta14]

this game is crazy....

[CFH]

00.4 left :lol

[DPG21920]

.4 left?

[Capt Bringdown]

I don't think I've seen a tough call like that...well, usually such calls go against the Spurs.

[boutons_deux]

manuvp

[siraulo23]

lol 0.4

god plz no

[Dex]

Manu with the gamewinner and the gamesaver!

[NASpurs]

oh fuck .4

[jimo2305]

this call is pointless wtf.. game over..

[Cessation]

great call, looks like stern doesnt mind us winning this year

[Avitus1]

Sacrificing your body for the win!

[DPG21920]

How did Manu have a game winner on both ends? :lmao. That dude is bad!

[Spurologist]

how is there 0.4 left??????

The ref didn't raise his hand and the ball went through at 0.0

Horrendous officiating

[Budkin]

Why are they even playing? It's our ball and our game.

[TampaDude]

LOL .4

WE have the ball, though. Game over.

[Darth_Pelican]

.4 seconds left... seems like that exact number happens all the time lol

[Trill Clinton]

lol 0.4

god plz no

but we have ball this time.

[Frenzy]

Just let the game end dam it..0.04 nightmare.

[ShoogarBear]

I don't think I've seen a tough call like that...well, usually such calls go against the Spurs.

I don't think I've ever seen a charge called in that situation . . . ever.

[DPG21920]

RJ knew it :lol

[Spurminator]

Unbelievable game.

[anonoftheinternets]

manu is amazing

[Dex]

Worse loss of the season
Goddamn Dice is a bad passer

If you are trying to live up to your screen name, mission accomplished.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Manu is one of the only players in the whole fucking league with the balls to jump in and take that charge.

GO
SPURS
GO

[Capt Bringdown]

Weird game. I feel like I should be ecstatic, but I'm still pissed about Dice.

[siraulo23]

spurs win!!!!!!!!!!!!

[awktalk]

22-3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

manu manu manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu <3333

[Spurologist]

Hell yeah....spurs win

[boutons_deux]

[TampaDude]

MANU FUCKING GINOBILI, bitches!!!!!

[Crookshanks]

How did Manu have a game winner on both ends? :lmao. That dude is bad!

Manu just redeeming himself at the end.

[davemaniscool]

you can boo all you want Denver but with the bs calls you didn't deserve this game

[Sisk]

wow..

[DPG21920]

I don't think I've ever seen a charge called in that situation . . . ever.

Not only that, but with the way the game was being called in general. I am shocked. Huge win from the Spurs.

[Darkwaters]

Ginobili making his money

[Libri]

:huddle:

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Exorcised the .4 demon...

[erikuff]

manu misses the pass on one end and saves the game on the other. what a man

[DPG21920]

Manu is one of the only players in the whole fucking league with the balls to jump in and take that charge.

GO
SPURS
GO

Love this stuff.

[anonoftheinternets]

i can honestly say there will never has been and there never will be a manu ginobili ... who takes a charge like that????? amazing...

[Budkin]

Wow that shot he hit was friggin amazing... very difficult shot.

[Borosai]

The refs grew a conscience. Great timing.

[SpursDynasty85]

manu's last offensive play should have been a 3 point play also.

[jimo2305]

good answer manu.. i woulda said 'fuck yea i was hella surprised.. fuckin refs..'

[janetcn12]

Can't believed we won. Go Spurs Go. Denver left out in the cold

[Frenzy]

"It was pretty clear it was a charge." Lol love manu.

[Crookshanks]

you can boo all you want Denver but with the bs calls you didn't deserve this game

You got that right!! The refs finally made the correct call. And now Denver will hate us all the more - I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

I yelled so loud.... My GF is pissed :lol

[GSH]

I think the look on Melo's face as he left the court was my favorite moment of the season so far. Gangsta and crybaby all rolled into one.

[ace3g]

wow someone needs to get a gif of Manu after he takes the charge, that is the emotion I want to see from one of my star players

[spursfan1000]

Manu is the truth!

[tah]

What a crazy game, but glad we won.

[TampaDude]

Wow...the Spurs sure as hell love those close games... :lol

[TIMMYD!]

best game of the season!!! Manu has titanium balls!!!!!!!!

[Budkin]

I don't think I've ever seen a charge called in that situation . . . ever.

Seriously... I don't think I've ever seen them not swallow the whistle.

[Capt Bringdown]

Classic Duncan performance, so glad it wasn't all for naught

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

no matter what time it is...

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I don't think I've ever seen a charge called in that situation . . . ever.

And the weird thing is....after giving Denver all those calls down the stretch....there was no hesitation in the refs WHATSOEVER calling that charge.

None....it was an instant call.

Manu getting a new level of ref respect?

[timtonymanu]

Can't believe the Spurs stole this game away. I gotta remember this isn't last year's team.

[CFH]

What a game! Ginobili is God! :D

[jimo2305]

butt hurt comemntators.. 'are u surprised by the call... are you surprised by the call'

if it were the fuckin lakers u wouldnt be surprised... S T F U..

[DPG21920]

i'm here. No worries. Spurs got this.

tbh.

[Darkwaters]

What a fucking thrilling back to back.

[Refocus]

Fuck that was awesome, i probably woke up some neighbors. :P

[Budkin]

Hahah Charles! GINOOOOBLIIII!

[Avitus1]

Great Game.

[pawe]

Manu, you are god among men!

[BoricuaCJA]

Manu proves why he is the best closer in the game!! :D

[siraulo23]

damn what a crazy game

[davemaniscool]

nene should've fouled late 3rd or early fourth. the man is a fouling machine.

[ElNono]

We finally got a call!!!!!! :lol

[BanditHiro]

time to see the meltdown on the nuggets forums

[ShoogarBear]

And the weird thing is....after giving Denver all those calls down the stretch....there was no hesitation in the refs WHATSOEVER calling that charge.

None....it was an instant call.

From two refs.

[ElNono]

And FUCK Bavetta, the only ref that didn't call the charge

[Crookshanks]

I really thought the Spurs would lose this one - this has to be the best game of the season so far. I'm so impressed by the Spurs - they had to be dog tired, but they slowed the game down in the 4th and conserved their energy and pulled out a tough win. GO SPURS!!

[jimo2305]

tbh.

lol good call bro

[024]

i think it was miller who said it right. there was too much contact there for a foul not to be called, and it was a blatant charge.

[TampaDude]

Ginooooobili!!!!! :hat

[anonoftheinternets]

And the weird thing is....after giving Denver all those calls down the stretch....there was no hesitation in the refs WHATSOEVER calling that charge.

None....it was an instant call.

Manu getting a new level of ref respect?

its just .. unbelievable... he took the charge so well, everyone knew it was a charge .. i knew it was one immediately, RJ on the floor, 2 refs .. it was that obvious .. and even miller had to agree ... :lol it was in a word .. unbelievable ... esp in todays NBA ...

[davemaniscool]

I'm writing my Congressman to remove Reggie "douchebag" Miller from broadcasting

[pawe]

All star TBH

[NRHector]

best game of the season!!! Manu has titanium balls!!!!!!!!

and Ducks is licking them as we speak

Manu with rare offensive & defensive game winner.

[GSH]

And FUCK Bavetta, the only ref that didn't call the charge

Yeh, I wondered if he might overrule the call.

[Manu20]

lol back to back controversial calls for manu lol

[jimo2305]

2nd game of a back to back in mile high city infront of a tnt crowd..

we beasted this shit!

[jimo2305]

ducks is kinda quiet right now.. u shy?

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Hey i'll take being down by 3 at the half.....

I'm thinking Manu comes out in the 2nd half and plays well (especially in the 4th)

LET's GO SPURS!!!!


Manu can play like dog shit but I have faith he will impact the game somehow. Remember that Hornets game last year? FAITH!!!


:downspin::flag:

Manu Ginobili is the most underrated guard in the NBA.

[MGWJ]

Last year I saw a posting of a link showing player efficiency in closing out games, like the last two minutes, which showed Ginobili at the top. Anyone know where I can find this page?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Funniest thing at the end was JR Smith remonstrating (should have been Ted up) even though he'd clearly fouled Manu on the play before... FUCK YOU, JR, and fuck you classless booing Nuggets fans.

[jimo2305]

lol barkley..

"the officials" haha..

[MeesterMarcus]

Hahah WOW. What an amazing game. GO SPURS. I jumped up and shouted so loud when the reff whistled and shot out his arm to Spurs basketball.

[siraulo23]

still shaking my head on dice, he almost cost them the game

[BoricuaCJA]

I yelled so loud.... My GF is pissed :lol
I yelled loud too. My bro came into my room and yelled "STFU!!! I'm trying to F'n sleep!" lol

[The Btown Spur]

WOW! What a great offensive play and a great defensive play by manu, but What a FANTASTIC call by the refs. it was a hard call to make but it was the accurate, and the correct call. I hope the refs keep making these good calls. TNTs givin us some love right now although calling us talentless haha

[jimo2305]

lol barkley.. stop.. just stop..

[Crookshanks]

I like Kenny - "the Spurs believe you're not smart enough to take good shots for 48 minutes".

[jimo2305]

lol i yelled too.. i had to have woken up one of my roomates

[Spurologist]

edit

[Capt Bringdown]

still shaking my head on dice, he almost cost them the game

I hope the Spurs learn from this and never...NEVER let Dice make a pass like that again. Scary!

[NRHector]

Spurs "insulting the other teams":lol

[NASpurs]

:lmao you couldn't put a pin up his ass with a jackhammer

I love Charles Barkley.

[GSH]

I hope the Spurs learn from this and never...NEVER let Dice make a pass like that again. Scary!

That wasn't on Dice. The Spurs should have called time out and advanced the ball. They had no business making that pass under Denver's basket with that little time and the game on the line. Of course Denver had to go for it. If they get called for a foul no big deal, that's what they had to do anyway.

[Barfunk]

Threating for a second double digit win streak.
