REVENGE: Knicks @ Spurs Game Blog

[Fireball]

well if you recorded the game take a look you will see what I mean

well, I wanted to do just that and watch the game from the beginning, but surprise, I cannot scroll back on ILPB ... normally it works every game but not when I actually need it ...

[GinobiliForTres]

Tight game

even when Melo isn't playing in this game, he gets coverage. wtf.

[tdunk21]

damn DB.....

[CFH]

Parker! Gotta give props to Blair for getting that board too

[tdunk21]

draw fouls and send amare's ass to the bench

[duncan228]

Take care of the damn ball. :bang

[CFH]

Boooooooooo turnover

[Tp9gospursgo]

RJ needs to gtfo of this game.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

McDyess needs to get closer to the basket on defense. Dare Amare to shoot that bullshit jumper

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

RJ absolutely needs to stop camping outside the 3 pt line

[tdunk21]

larry owens checkd in again

[CFH]

Parker J

[Spurs Brazil]

TP bad pass lead to RJ 3rd PF

Fuck

[tdunk21]

JVG is fuckin annoying....talk about the game asshole...why talk about a persn who is not here

[CFH]

Timmy J!

[Texas_Ranger]

all this Carmelo talk is so fucking boring.

[Brazil]

JVG is fuckin annoying....talk about the game asshole...why talk about a persn who is not here

+10000 I don't give a damn of Melo situation

[Brazil]

Nice to see this TP jumper !

[GinobiliForTres]

all this Carmelo talk is so fucking boring.

and the knicks are fucking annoying and never go away. pissing me off.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

well, they ARE the BSPN

[TDfan2007]

Knicks are a fantastic offensive team. With that in mind I'm okay with the defense so far. Offense has been choppy.

[jestersmash]

Ginobili and Neal are struggling. RJ needs to get more touches and look more to drive against a porous New York defense.

[dbestpro]

Rough game. Spurs look short handed with Anderson, Hill, and Bonner out.

[Pauleta14]

TP bad pass lead to RJ 3rd PF

Fuck


WTF with all those TO (4) by Tony?!!?? if not those we would be up 10... :bang

[Fireball]

I just want to see Melos ass get traded to the East ... as soon as possible

[tdunk21]

well, they ARE the BSPN

tonite's crew proves it

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

JVG is fuckin annoying....talk about the game asshole...why talk about a persn who is not here

That was JVG's whole point, which you obviously missed. The soap opera is a distraction from the game. That's exactly what he was pointing out! :rolleyes

[CFH]

Neal J

[tdunk21]

good neal

[TDomination]

Nice!

[CFH]

Parker with the J

[TDomination]

Jumpers starting to go in

[tdunk21]

timmy

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

You guys are pretty obtuse. JVG's entire point about having a limited trading season was that it would get rid of soap operas like the Melo BS. Sheesh.

[CFH]

Duncan AND 1!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

duncan!! what a shoot. attack these pussies!!

[TDomination]

heck yeah timmy!!!

[GinobiliForTres]

Jumpers starting to go in

does that and 1 count? holy shit.

[timtonymanu]

Owens looks like a lanky James Anderson from behind. They both have the same stance.

[Capt Bringdown]

Helluva shot by Duncan, wow!

[dbestpro]

RJ absolutely needs to stop camping outside the 3 pt line

This is where the coaches want him in order to space the floor.

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CFH]

Blair with the steal!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

blair <3

[tdunk21]

blair troublin amare......

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Mark Jackson with some rare props for the Spurs.

[timtonymanu]

Duncan and Blair are playing well tonight.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

This is where the coaches want him in order to space the floor.

slashing/cutting every once a while won't hurt..

[tdunk21]

You guys are pretty obtuse. JVG's entire point about having a limited trading season was that it would get rid of soap operas like the Melo BS. Sheesh.

ok.....lol...

[CFH]

Blair beasting on both ends of the court tonight

[TDomination]

Blair with the block!!!

[spurspokesman]

Blair is worth his weight in gold

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Timmy shooting .731 from the line this year - feels like he's been better than that to me.

[Sausage]

DeJuan Blair is absolutely owning Amare

[timtonymanu]

I wish Blair can play like this all the time.

[Spurs Brazil]

DB playing great on D

Owens also did a good job on Gallinari

[DesignatedT]

good job larry

[CFH]

Owens for 3333333333333333333333

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

owenss 333333

[tdunk21]

good shot owens

[TDomination]

L.O. for 3!!!

[timtonymanu]

Wow Stoudemire you classless bitch.

[duncan228]

Duncan hit...

[tdunk21]

looks like timmy is ok

[DesignatedT]

amare you punk bitch. gunna love winning this game.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

That was a clinic play. :D

[c whata11]

i almost never log on. but damn, stoudemire is such a punk.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

fuck uuuuuuu stoudemire fuckkk u

[awktalk]

Classless, Amare. Classless.

[erikuff]

amare taking any opportunity to dunk on duncan. smh

[Fireball]

I hate Amare ... dunkin on hurt people. Now its time to dunk on people with glasses !!!

[dbestpro]

If Blair could play this way consistantly and more importantly in the playoffs, well you know..........

[Mal]

Logged in to say that. What an ass..

[Dex]

After that, I'll be damned if Duncan lets the Spurs lose this game.

[urunobili]

lol Amare with the useless bravado. what a fucking low class prick

[tdunk21]

would love blair to bitchslap amare for that

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK the refs. 1st afraid to call the 3rd on Amare and then Felton

Fucking cowards

[Werdsniper2]

Richard Jefferson literally isn't doing anything.

[Brazil]

mare is such an asshole

[dallaskd]

lol what was amare supposed to do besides dunk it over tim? pull up for a bank shot? get real

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Nothing wrong with Amar''''e scoring there (it's his job to score - there was no call, the game hadn't stopped), but he should have done it in a way that didn't end up with him swinging into a injured player. That was certainly low-rent.

[Pauleta14]

Amare SOB !!!!

Couldn't just put a simple dunk or layup???

[TDfan2007]

Stoudemire with the dick move

[CFH]

Neal 3!

[janetcn12]

Just love how DJB play tonight...

[Spurs Brazil]

We play the Hornets tomorrow and in the 3rd quarter at Hawks they are up 65-36

[Capt Bringdown]

Neal's back!

[CFH]

Blair with the active hands

[dbestpro]

The guards have to help Blair when he is left in no man's land like that.

[Werdsniper2]

Gn3!!!

[Pauleta14]

The knicks are so lucky this WHOLE half...

Either with our mistakes or the refs...

[tdunk21]

fuck u amare......

[CFH]

Duncan blocking Amare :D

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

amare :cry crofl

[timtonymanu]

LMAO Amare. Duncan owned ur ass twice.

[Spurs Brazil]

That was a great play off the time out. Pop is great

[Pauleta14]

Timmy's pay back.....

I love it!!

[TDfan2007]

Manu needs to feed Tim there. Btw Timmy just blocking amare twice to get back at him. GOAT.

[Brazil]

loved these 2 TD blks in your face big fat ass

[Dex]

Amare stuffed twice by Timmy D.

Fuck off, Pushups.

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK you Amare

TD is the best

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

owens looks like little mahinmi that can shoot three

[urunobili]

CROFL Amare :owned

[Fireball]

We play the Hornets tomorrow and in the 3rd quarter at Hawks they are up 65-36

Hornets really play good as of late ... can the Hawks do a 37 point turnaround like the Spurs?

[Capt Bringdown]

During the allstar break, the Spurs need to do a mini-camp with RJ. It seems he's lost confidence in himself, and coach has lost confidence in him. Not good.

[tdunk21]

is timmy playing more minutes tonite?

[CFH]

Much better quarter, Spurs up 11 at the half

[TDfan2007]

Timmy on pace for 30 :)

[benefactor]

Very nice closeout to the half. Keep it rollin' fellas.

[Fireball]

well, givin up 50 points is better than 70

[Brazil]

too bad for some bad TOs but TP with the rest just perfect 12 pts 100% FG and 8 assists !!!

[Spurs Brazil]

DB and TD with great 1st half

Quinn and Owens with good minutes off the bench.

D looks good. RJ needs to wake up

[dbestpro]

Not too worried about RJ. He usually disappears when he gets hit with a few bad calls. He will recover.

[tdunk21]

TP with 8 assists.....

[TDfan2007]

Tim has matched or exceeded his season averages on every single stat. Again...GOAT.

[Texas_Ranger]

Owens with a + 12. He played pretty good D on that Italian bitch.

[BlairForceDejuan]

Db db dbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

[Brazil]

TP with 8 assists.....

and 5 on 5 with good mid range jumper niiiiccceeee

[TDomination]

good end to the 1st half! lets keep it up, see if we can get a big lead and rest up for tomorrow!

[jestersmash]

Duncan with a big "fuck you" to the people thinking he can't do it anymore.

15 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 blocks in the 1st half.

[Pauleta14]

too bad for some bad TOs but TP with the rest just perfect 12 pts 100% FG and 8 assists !!!


As you say, too bad... (each of tham has led to a field goal) :bang

To be honest, only 2 of them are really due to bad decisions/play making...

[dbestpro]

When they talk about the Spurs ability to get better, even with their record, it starts with Blair. I think this is the first time this year that he has put together great back to back games. The guy can be a difference maker.

[tdunk21]

blair MVP first half

[Dex]

Duncan with a big "fuck you" to the people thinking he can't do it anymore.

15 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 blocks in the 1st half.

:tu

Timmy is just hibernating right now. Can't wait to see playoff Tim in action again.

[TDfan2007]

and 5 on 5 with good mid range jumper niiiiccceeee

I was worried about his jumper. Guess he's back on track.

[Dex]

Random thought to consider:

Spurs typically play better in the second half of the season.

Better than 35-6?

:wow

[tdunk21]

melo the drama queen

[TDfan2007]

Lol ESPN overrating DB's defense. Here's hoping Blair can keep it up defensively the rest of the season.

[benefactor]

RJ got doghoused in that first half. How long before Pop gives him the "sit down?"

[Fireball]

what happened to George? I heard something about his thumb? Is it serious?

[tdunk21]

what happened to George? I heard something about his thumb? Is it serious?

sprained thumb....not so serious i think

[Dex]

what happened to George? I heard something about his thumb? Is it serious?

Apparently a freak occurrence. Random ball bounced into his thumb during shootaround, sprained thumb.

[awktalk]

We play the Hornets tomorrow and in the 3rd quarter at Hawks they are up 65-36

Going to be a tough start to the RRT

[Fireball]

Lol ESPN overrating DB's defense. Here's hoping Blair can keep it up defensively the rest of the season.

This kind of defense worked against L.A. also, but most of the time he gambles, reaches in and lets his opponent pass or commits the foul ... staying in front of your opponent hands up in the air is definitely the better way to play defense

[BlairForceDejuan]

melo the drama queen

He looked like such a douche. He didn't even move for that guy in the wheel chair ghosting him. :lol

[Fireball]

Apparently a freak occurrence. Random ball bounced into his thumb during shootaround, sprained thumb.

but it hurts like hell and will probably not heal fully the whole season

[jestersmash]

I respect the fact that Ginobili had the presence of mind to not chuck up 7 threes in the first half in the midst of a shooting slump. His mid range game and touch around the rim are just fine, but his 3 point shot has been M.I.A. for quite a while now.

[benefactor]

but it hurts like hell and will probably not heal fully the whole season
So you can tell this by the video?

[awktalk]

RJ got doghoused in that first half. How long before Pop gives him the "sit down?"

Pop only benched him due to fouls.

[Fireball]

So you can tell this by the video?

if he sprained his thumb I know it from personal experience ... sorry, did not even see a video

[Pauleta14]

I counted tomorrow's game as a lost...

After the energy spent on the knicks game, an away bck to bck is just insane phisicaly...

[awktalk]

He hasn't had a lot of good looks. Those step backs are a tough shot, and he's usually the one with the ball in his hands if we have a bad possession and the shot clock is winding down. A lot of his misses lately have been "team misses". He'll be fine, he said in his pre-game interview his 3 was "making a comeback".

[benefactor]

if he sprained his thumb I know it from personal experience ... sorry, did not even see a video
No one knows what it is right now. Let's wait until we get some sort of official word on the severity before claiming it will hurt the whole season.

[Fireball]

but the Hornets have a back-to-back as well and return from Atlanta ... we owned the the last two games ... I wanna win it all

[Spurs Brazil]

JMcDonald_SAEN
.If Spurs win tonight, and Lakers lose later, Pop officially cemented as All-Star coach. If Spurs tank 2nd half, you know why

[DesignatedT]

rj getting bench for neal 2nd half? lol

[Spurs Brazil]

but the Hornets have a back-to-back as well and return from Atlanta ... we owned the the last two games ... I wanna win it all

Hornets is up 81-45 in the 4th :wow:wow:wow

[Werdsniper2]

Tiago Splitter is playing lights out.

[BlairForceDejuan]

Duncan turning back the clock

[dbestpro]

They should call Gallinari spaghetti. He's long, Italian, and flops all over the place.

[Capt Bringdown]

RJ sick or what?

[Fireball]

No one knows what it is right now. Let's wait until we get some sort of official word on the severity before claiming it will hurt the whole season.

let me clarify, I'm not saying this is a serious injury ... its kind of a niggling injury. But Kobe plays with a finger that is hurt much more the last two years, so George will be back soon. I will say no more about it ...

[Werdsniper2]

They should call Gallinari spaghetti. He's long, Italian, and flops all over the place.

I hate to generalize, but it seems many foreign players enjoy flopping like a fish.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

blair... at least show a hand..

[benefactor]

RJ not starting. Doghouse.

[Spurs Brazil]

Tony with a lot of stupid TOs today

[BlairForceDejuan]

LOL jackson and jvg going at it

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

haha amare pure comedy

[Capt Bringdown]

Where's the pushoff on Amare? Ridiculous officiating on that sequence.

[Pauleta14]

Stoudemire is making as many fouls as he wants!!!!

AMAZING...

Maybe his 1st half lobbying worked..

[jestersmash]

Ginobili 60% from 2 point range, 0% from 3 point range. 3 point shooting woes continue. I actually don't remember the last time he's even made a 3, but he's been shooting from 3 so poorly that his average dropped 5+ percentage points in the span of a couple of weeks.

[Brazil]

that was some weird plays

[Spurs Brazil]

RJ sick or what?

Not sick, just sucks

[dbreiden83080]

rj getting bench for neal 2nd half? lol

That better not happen in the long run..

[Pauleta14]

We need to play simple and pass until we find the open man!!

not rush anything...

[DesignatedT]

rj needs a bit of a wake up call. been playing like shit

[BlairForceDejuan]

db is in beast mode tonight

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

RJ has been in a slump for quite a while, but it doesn't seem to be hurting the team, so I've said nothing about it... ;) :lol

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

"...the Spurs' greatness is taken for granted, like Duncan's greatness..."

Best comment all night.

[BlairForceDejuan]

you know Turiaf hates db haha

[benefactor]

Blair is all over the place.

[BlairForceDejuan]

there you go RJJJJJJJ

[benefactor]

Maybe that will get him going.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Rj!! Nice!

[spurspokesman]

Beautiful alley oop

[benefactor]

That's my boy.

[DesignatedT]

sick ally oop!!!!!!!!

[Brazil]

great execution on the last plays

[DesignatedT]

blair is playing fucking awesome tonight. love his hustle

[Spurs Brazil]

Finally RJ!!!!

Good shot Neal

[ohmwrecker]

Maybe that will get him going.

RJ was looking for a donkey to ride on that dunk.

[Refocus]

Spurs have 3 players with double-doubles already. :D

[benefactor]

Three Spurs players have a double/double.

[Spurs Brazil]

Final:

Hornets 100
Hawks 59

[Brazil]

Finally RJ!!!!

Good shot Neal

he was too open on the 3 so he prefered complicate a little the things

[Spurologist]

:rollin

Mark Jackson: "Jefferson still moving on up"

love the Jeffersons reference

[Pauleta14]

you know Turiaf hates db haha


No Turiaf is a real nice guy!

Tony and him are best friends and you could see who happy he was after blocking him... :lol

He just an expressive energy guy, I would love having him play for the spurs...

[CFH]

Nice job by the Spurs to answer right back after the Knicks had that little run

[Fireball]

and it looks like the Spurs can hold the Knicks under 100 points ... good stuff

[DesignatedT]

duncan with 17/12/6/5

[Capt Bringdown]

Frick'n Celtics only 3 games back in the loss column.

[BlairForceDejuan]

No Turiaf is a real nice guy!

Tony and him are best friends and you could see who happy he was after blocking him... :lol

He just an expressive energy guy, I would love having him play for the spurs...

I love me some Turiaf. Just seems like he is super annoyed with DB; and they had that brief scuffle under the basket in the last game.

[CFH]

Gotta stop giving up offensive boards

[Fireball]

Final:

Hornets 100
Hawks 59

holy shit ... the Hawks were on a roll, but this will give the Hornets confidence evening the series with the Spurs

[benefactor]

In other news, Pop is still absolutely refusing to play Splitter.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Fuck tony... Bad decision right there

[urunobili]

you guys won't get mad if I say Chooo Chooo!!!? It brings good luck :)

[Warlord23]

15 offensive rebounds for NY through less than 3 quarters

[urunobili]

in other news, pop is still absolutely refusing to play splitter and anderson.

fify

[BlairForceDejuan]

awwww that shoulda gone in

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

[benefactor]

Return to sender.

[CFH]

Damn, Knicks within 6 going into the 4th

[timtonymanu]

shitty 3rd

[Tp9gospursgo]

My GOD BLAIR! ALMOST!!

[Spurologist]

:lol

Damn...Blair almost made that

[DesignatedT]

lol blair almost had that

[Brazil]

TP alternating great plays with dumb stuff unbeavable

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Spurs offense has become Parker dribbling around while everyone else stands still and does nothing? ? ?? ??

Blow the horn son.

[DesignatedT]

that williams guy is sick from behind the arc.

[Spurs Brazil]

Last 4 minutes were bad.

Poor job on the boards the whole quarter and Tony with some bad decisions

[Brazil]

holy shit ... the Hawks were on a roll, but this will give the Hornets confidence evening the series with the Spurs

hornets were without horford

[jestersmash]

The knicks have nearly 20 more shot attempts. Spurs should be glad to be up by even 1.

[AidanNelson2009]

Bad 3rd quarter, Knicks have a chance. go spurs go.

[Pauleta14]

I love me some Turiaf. Just seems like he is super annoyed with DB; and they had that brief scuffle under the basket in the last game.

yep, NOBODY knows how to deal with DB! :lol

[urunobili]

Blair fucking rocks... tough end to this game I foresee

[awktalk]

In other news, Pop is still absolutely refusing to play Splitter.

Keeping us in the game with great coaching decisions such as this.

[Fireball]

hornets were without horford

you mean the Hawks ... but that explains something

[rasho8]

Less TP isolation, more passing the ball because it fucking works!

[Brazil]

spurs offense has become parker dribbling around while everyone else stands still and does nothing? ? ?? ??

+1

[Pauleta14]

TP alternating great plays with dumb stuff unbeavable

Specialy on D, he can have good sequences and then he sleeps on the next one...

Anyway, it seems Pop has kept Manu's energy for the 4th, we'll need him!

[Sigz]

lol pop

[Capt Bringdown]

Dice comes in, Knicks go on a run.

[ohmwrecker]

Last 4 minutes were bad.

Poor job on the boards the whole quarter and Tony with some bad decisions

Terrible shot selection. Too many forced shots.

[CFH]

Dice should've shot that

[Chieflion]

Another brilliant Pop quote: Sometimes we just play guys.

[Brazil]

you mean the Hawks ... but that explains something

yeah I meant hawks thx. Nobody is speaking about Horford but he is playing great bb

[Warlord23]

Manu is just not finding the hoop

[AidanNelson2009]

Gonna be a tight game, can see it going to OT.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

dice's hands are oily tonight

[CFH]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[tdunk21]

[Tp9gospursgo]

[Spurs Brazil]

Beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[benefactor]

lol all the second chances. This is nuts.

[davemaniscool]

Stoudemire needs to take the d out of his name

[CFH]

Damn, can't hit free throws now

[Fireball]

Blair is getting more consistent ...
