DeJuan Blair on the Spurs home court winning streak:


“We’ve been playing well here. We’ve got to keep it up. We can’t let up.”

[Darkwaters]

No Rudy Gay tonight.

[spursbird]

Randolph would be a beast against us. Trap game.

[carina_gino20]

Gary Neal won't play.

Referee Assignments
Sun. Feb. 27
Memphis @ San Antonio: Derrick Stafford; Tommy Nunez Jr.; Olandis Poole

[Darkwaters]

Gary Neal won't play.

Confirmed?

[Ditty]

It was in the newspaper this morning in SA. I think it should wait until shoot around later on too know if it's true or not. I would like to see more of anderson right now, but don't want Neal's stroke to be lost at this point considering the games coming up.

[Darkwaters]

I agree about wanting to see more of Anderson now. But if we have the option of resting a wing player I'd rather it be Manu than Neal. But if we can limit Manu and Neal then the more the merrier. Might look at dusting off Quinn if we think it makes sense.

Word on Tiago?

[spurs10]

Tiago is day to day. Guess we'll see if today is his day....???

[Pauleta14]

Confirmed?

Grizzlies possible playoff opponent (http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursnation/2011/02/26/grizzlies-possible-playoff-opponent/)

Posted on February 26, 2011 at 11:26 pm by Mike Monroe (http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursnation/author/mmonroe/) in Memphis Grizzlies (http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursnation/category/memphis-grizzlies/)

Tonight’s home matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies is the final game of February for the Spurs. With the playoffs just six weeks away, it’s natural for the team with the league’s best record to begin thinking about potential first-round opponents.
That puts a bit of an edge on the Spurs’ next two games, both against the Grizzlies, who enter today’s game in a tight battle for the eighth and final playoff berth in the Western Conference.
“Memphis is a good team,” Spurs starting center DeJuan Blair said. “They’ve got Zach Randolph. He’s one of my favorites in the league. He’s not athletic, but he works real hard to get where he needs to get.”
Blair, the undersized center whose game is predicated on energy and positioning, sees Randolph, averaging 20.0 points and 13.1 rebounds per game, as a role model.
“He’s definitely a role model that I look up to,” Blair said. “Any chance I get to watch him, I watch him. He’s a double-double-every-night type of guy. Why not look up to him? He’s the perfect guy to look up to.
“I came to appreciate him after I saw him and played against him. He showed me a lot. I didn’t really notice him back then. Now I’ve seen him and watched a lot of games.”
A TRYING SEASON: Rookie guard James Anderson, who logged 18 minutes against the Nets on Friday because fellow rookie Gary Neal had been scratched by the team’s medical staff with a concussion, acknowledged how trying his first season has been.
Never having suffered a major injury in high school or during his three seasons at Oklahoma State, Anderson’s patience was tested as he sat out most of three months with a stress fracture in his right foot.
“It’s been real frustrating,” Anderson said. “Just having injuries, starting back from pre-draft when I had the hamstring, and coming back from that and having training camp to get back on the floor, and then the stress fracture happened. It was just real frustrating.
“I hadn’t been hurt in high school or college, and then I get here, and injuries started coming out of nowhere. I guess it happens to the best of them.”
INJURY UPDATES: Neal did not practice on Saturday, and coach Gregg Popovich ruled him out of today’s game. The 26-year-old rookie suffered concussion-like symptoms after being elbowed in the head in Wednesday’s victory over Oklahoma City. The team’s No. 6 scorer at 9.0 points per game, Neal had played in all 57 games before missing Friday. … Rookie center Tiago Splitter, who has not played since straining his left hamstring on Feb. 9, continues to be listed as day-to-day.

[timtonymanu]

Mayo always goes off on us. Randolph is a match up problem which I believe Pop will have Bonner guard.

This will be a tough game.

[GrandeDavid]

On verge of breaking home win streak record. Trap game. Lol lol lol

[Dex]

That must've been one hell of a knock to the noggin to take Neal out of commission for this long.

[TampaDude]

On verge of breaking home win streak record. Trap game. Lol lol lol

That's a HUGE psychological barrier when you're trying to break a record streak. All the odds are against the Spurs tonight. I think they pull out a very narrow victory, though. The possibility of OT is extremely high...about 90%, IMHO.

[alchemist]

this isn't good news about Neal, hopefully everything is alright with him.

[DarkGinobili]

Go Spurs :flag::ihit

[Budkin]

No Neal? Fuck. We have to have this game because we play them in Memphis net and it will be tough winning in their building.

[Bill_Brasky]

That must've been one hell of a knock to the noggin to take Neal out of commission for this long.
Concussions are taken pretty seriously nowadays.

Sucks that he won't be available, I've missed watching him shoot the ball.

[bigdog]

I'd like to see Anderson back to how he was before the injury, he was doing awesome. Hopefully he can show some of that tonight. Mayo will go off, but I hope we can stop Randolph.

[yavozerb]

No news is good news for Tiago...

[DPG21920]

What does it matter if Tiago is healthy :lol? I guess that DNP-CD is a really serious injury :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs call!

[Spurs Brazil]

It looks Tiago is out again

[bigdog]

It will be interesting to see if Novak gets any time. I know he's not a great defender, but it would be good if he could hit some shots for us.

[Spurs Brazil]

OMG Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[Bill_Brasky]

Manu with a sweet move to start the game!

Disappointed with the rebounding on the defensive end though....handed Randolph 2 points.

[eightG4]

Great start defensivly.

[jag]

I get to watch this on local tv. How exciting

[eightG4]

Love the energy ! Great ball movement.

[spyder]

Go Spurs!!

[CFH]

B2B buckets for Blair

[Spurs Brazil]

Terrible call on TD

[DarkGinobili]

Blair!

[CFH]

Manuuuuuuuuu 2 handed slam!

[timtonymanu]

Manu!!!! Awesome dunk

[DarkGinobili]

Manu Slam!

[DesignatedT]

nice manu

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu with a great dunk!

[Fireball]

As Randolph scored his first two points, I thought "not again", but now the Spurs are rebounding, fast breaking and dunking !!! Good start ...

[jag]

It would have been nice to see Splitter match up against Marc. Even if only for 5 minutes..

[eightG4]

Great Start!

[Spurologist]

TP floater!

[Texas_Ranger]

Tim!!!!!!!!!

[CFH]

Block party! Timmy with 3 there I think

[timtonymanu]

Timmy 3 straight blocks on Z Bo.

[Chachachango]

Timmy busting baaaaaaaalls.

[DesignatedT]

Duncan wow

[DarkGinobili]

LoL all the blocks.

[bigdog]

Timmy with the block party! Dammnnn.

[Spurs Brazil]

TD with a fantastic effort

[TIMMYD!]

:wow @ the blocks by Tim.

[Spurologist]

TD!!!!! 3 blocks in one possession...If manu hit that 3, the ATT center would've exploded

[Chachachango]

Oh ahit ref

[Bill_Brasky]

Ref down!!

[TIMMYD!]

Ref is hurt.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Timmy is to ZBo as The Chicago Bulls are to Charles Smith! :lmao

[TIMMYD!]

Tim with 4 blocked shots already. :lol

[TIMMYD!]

I've never seen this before.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I don't think I've ever seen one player block another 3 times in a row like that. Team D, yes, but not one on another.

[Chachachango]

Donte they have a reserved referee?

[Spurs Brazil]

Ugly fall by the ref

[Fireball]

I screamed very loud as Timmy blocked all these shots ... sadly we could not score after that ... Grizzlies can play D too

[Spurologist]

official down....probably a twisted ankle or slight ligament tear....could need a replacement official

TD going for the quadruple double tonight :smokin

[Spurs Brazil]

:lol Sean, 1st time ever a ref will get a ovation

[Chachachango]

Bonnny

[TIMMYD!]

I screamed very loud as Timmy blocked all these shots ... sadly we could not score after that ... Grizzlies can play D too

:lol So did, I. I jumped up my seat.

[Fireball]

So Ref, now remember who ran you over ...

[Chachachango]

xome on tp.

[024]

damn, grizzlies D is pretty tough with battier and allen. hopefully the spurs don't meet them in the first round.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Horrible start by George today, like last game. I hope he turns it around in the 2nd Q like he did last game. ;)

[DPG21920]

Spurs look spry today.

[Spurologist]

Neal and Tiago still out???

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Timmy is to ZBo as The Chicago Bulls are to Charles Smith! :lmao

C'mon guys, some props please - that is the funniest thing I've said all season! :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Mayo in, he always play well against us

[Spurologist]

that's either a push or a no call

[Spursnlego]

Manu needs to get it together.

[Juggity]

TD going for the quadruple double tonight :smokin

Wasn't DRob the last player to get one of those in the NBA?

[Spurs Brazil]

Horrible start by George today, like last game. I hope he turns it around in the 2nd Q like he did last game. ;)

I'd write that to see if we could get the same results :lol

[Fireball]

Wasn't DRob the last player to get one of those in the NBA?

Shaq had one too ...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I've blocked a guy's shot twice in a row many times, but they usually kick it out on the third try... :lol

In a mixed inter-mural game I once blocked a girl (a very good player, might I add) 4 times in the first half... I told her after the first one that I'd let her jumpshoot from outside the key, but that I don't give up layups, but she failed to get the message. It almost ended in fisticuffs. :lmao

[Tp9gospursgo]

Good to see J.A get some minutes here.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I'd write that to see if we could get the same results :lol

I was thinking of you as I wrote it... ;)

[CFH]

Bonner steal :lol

[Spurologist]

Wasn't DRob the last player to get one of those in the NBA?

yep. He would be the 3rd spur to get it

[timtonymanu]

JA with great D

[TIMMYD!]

TD tweaked his ankle. Hopefully it's nothing.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Ahh hopefully Tim is ok.

[bigdog]

James failed on the offensive end that time, but I liked his effort against Battier on defense.

[024]

duncan able to walk by himself. doesn't seem too severe.

[Fireball]

Shit ... Tim out with ankle problems

[Spurs Brazil]

damn, TD twisted left ankle

[Spurologist]

Shaq had one too ...

:nope

[CFH]

Manu tresssssssssssssss! and a dunk!

[DarkGinobili]

Manu 3

[Warlord23]

Manu showing off the hops

[TIMMYD!]

Manu 33333333333333333

and a steal for the dunk!!!!

[Spurologist]

white chocolate

[DarkGinobili]

And the steal and dunk

[FaM0us Skins]

Manu is dunkin!

[TIMMYD!]

Manu getting in the block party too

[Spurologist]

manu going nuts

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[DarkGinobili]

Manu with the block!

[MannyIsGod]

Manu playing extremely well so far.

[TampaDude]

Manu is possessed!!!

[DesignatedT]

nice quarter.

[timtonymanu]

Great energy. Great defense. Keep it up.

[timtonymanu]

someone needs a gif or video of those Timmy blocks.

[InRareForm]

Manu!

[Spurs Brazil]

Good start, I just hope TD is OK

[TampaDude]

End of the 1st quarter...Spurs up 26-16.

[Bill_Brasky]

Manu had a pretty good quarter defensively, and was good on offense too, just needs to quit settling for so many 3s....

Timmy was looking quite beastly too before the ankle tweak, hope it's nothing major.

[Spurologist]

Spurs are 9-0 when manu scores 25+. Things are looking good

[Fireball]

:nope

you're right, Hakeem had one ... but David had the last one in 1994

[Tp9gospursgo]

Good defense in the first quarter.

[Spursnlego]

I mean Manu needs to get his JUMP SHOT going...

[TIMMYD!]

someone needs a gif or video of those timmy blocks.
+1

[Fireball]

Good start, I just hope TD is OK

I think he is. He sat on the bench, no trainer was at his side ...

[jestersmash]

Manu only took 1 questionable 3 (the last one). The others were fine. He had to chuck one up because the shot clock was winding down. He made another one. And the last one he missed was a wide open 3.

I don't see how that constitutes "settling for so many 3s." He settled for one questionable 3.

[Fireball]

Good defense in the first quarter.

Agree. Good chance to show transition D against these Grizzlies, because next Friday the Heat will come here ... and they can run you out of the building

[Spurologist]

Neal and Tiago still out???

status anyone?

[CFH]

status anyone?

Neal is still out, think Splitter is too

[Warlord23]

By my reckoning, Timmy has already tied Mourning at #10 all-time for career blocks with his 4 blocks tonight. Needs another 5 to tie Robert Parish.

[Thompson]

So I subscribe to NBA League pass Broadband, but they black out games on FSSW. Problem is, FSSW only shows Mavs games in my area (they claim to show Spurs on another channel, but I've tried all of them to no avail).

Someone PM me what I'm missing or doing wrong.

[ohmwrecker]

What happened to the Mayo/McRoberts trade?

[TampaDude]

Uh oh...they made Manu mad!!!

[TIMMYD!]

Gh333333333333

[CFH]

Hill 333333333333

[TampaDude]

Hill for 3!!! IUPUI!!!

[Spurologist]

Randolph went for Mankind's finishing move on manu there

[timtonymanu]

What happened to the Mayo/McRoberts trade?

Apparently one side backed out at the last minute

[Spurologist]

Hhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiilllllllllll 33333333333333333333333

[CFH]

Manu to Anderson oop!

[Bill_Brasky]

Yes! Ja is back!

[TIMMYD!]

Holy Shit :wow :wow

Greatest fucking effort of the season and capped it off with the alley-oop!!!!!!

[Warlord23]

Nice oop ... Timmy seems fine on the sideline

[024]

that was sick

[DarkGinobili]

Anderson with the dunk!

[TampaDude]

WHOOOOOHOOOO!!!!! That's what I'm fucking talking about!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

[c whata11]

james anderson is back ladies and gentleman!!

[timtonymanu]

Holy shit this is the most entertaining game I've seen all year.

[Spurologist]

great fucking hustle --------> fastbreak manu to Anderson for the ALLEY HOOP!

[Chachachango]

I just signed in to say, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawa

[45 bank shot]

Ja!!

[Chieflion]

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bigdog]

Great to see that. Should get James some confidence! Great effort tonight, I'm loving it!

[TampaDude]

Holy shit this is the most entertaining game I've seen all year.

But...but...the Spurs are BORING... :lmao

[DesignatedT]

sickkkkkkkkkkk

[Tp9gospursgo]

Omg alley oop

[Fireball]

Holy shit this is the most entertaining game I've seen all year.

Yelled out again after the alley oop ... great stuff

[tdunk21]

damn good alley oop pass from manu to JA....

[Mr Fundamental]

Great !!

[CFH]

Hill 33333333333

[Warlord23]

Bonner and RJ aren't boxing out

[Fundamental]

some killer intensity from both teams

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

damnnnnnn lovin the hustle

[Spurologist]

Hhhhhhiiiillllllllll 3333333333333333333

[Mr Fundamental]

Hill is feelin it !!

[024]

interesting lineup. only one semi playmaker on the floor in hill.

[Warlord23]

Hill is on fire

[Spurs Brazil]

We're having trouble on the boards again

[Bill_Brasky]

Hill is feeling it tonight.

[timtonymanu]

Horrible start by George today, like last game. I hope he turns it around in the 2nd Q like he did last game. ;)

good call

[tdunk21]

we are getting killed on the boards....

[TampaDude]

IUPUfuckingI!!!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

hill damnnnn son

[bigdog]

Hill is feeling it now.

[tdunk21]

hill on fire

[Mr Fundamental]

Hill !!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Ruff I think it worked again :lol

[TampaDude]

Mercy call by the refs there. :lol

[Fireball]

George Hill is balling ... he sleeps in the first q, but with Neal out he has to score

[bigdog]

Bodies all over the place. I love these games.

[TampaDude]

we are getting killed on the boards....

...and yet we're up by 17...I'll take it! :hat

[Mr Fundamental]

We are making a great job on defensive end tonight.

Just allowed 21 pts in 18 min.

[Spursnlego]

Hustle, Hustle, Hustle!!!

[DesignatedT]

we are getting killed on the boards....

Randolph is a beat on the offensive boards, never had an answer for that. Rebounds are actually 22-20 right now. Just need to try to keep Randolph out of there, guy is a beast.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

clean rebound is so damn refreshing to see

[Spurologist]

Thank you RJ. Attack that paint

[Texas_Ranger]

lol Sean.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lol sam young. saw that coming miles away

[Fireball]

George doing the Kevin Durant move ... nice

[Spurologist]

:rollin

Hill is at least in the top 5 in the league at drawing fouls on jumper....get Sam Young and now shooting 3

[TampaDude]

20 point lead for the Spurs!!!!!

[Mal]

Guess Timmy is done for tonight. So is my fantasy

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Guess Timmy is done for tonight. So is my fantasy

nop.

[CFH]

Tim back in

[DarkGinobili]

Tim back in

[Fireball]

ZBo is a ball magnet ...

[TampaDude]

Getting sloppy with a big lead...nothing new here...

[Mal]

nop.

yup, :downspin:

[Fundamental]

timmy's ok. that's good news

[tdunk21]

yay timmy is fine and back

[Spurologist]

Damn! Randolph doesn't have great hands....he has great vacuums

[024]

spurs getting murdered on the boards. already a 13-2 advantage in offensive rebounds for the grizzlies.

[timtonymanu]

Here's the Grizzlies run.

[Spurs Brazil]

good timeout Pop

[Warlord23]

Another reason for their offensive rebounding is that our guys are trying to front their bigs, so when a perimeter player shoots it, their big man is closer to the basket. That, plus Bonner just isn't able to box anyone out.

[Bill_Brasky]

I like the defense so far.....this team has potential to be one of the best ever if they can play good D consistently and keep the offense running the way it is.

[Fireball]

Damn! Randolph doesn't have great hands....he has great vacuums

the ball bumped from the hands of three Spurs players and ended up in Randolphs ... unbelievable

[TampaDude]

spurs getting murdered on the boards. already a 13-2 advantage in offensive rebounds for the grizzlies.

Good thing they are only shooting 25.5% so far.

[TampaDude]

Damn, TP...

[Fireball]

Bill ... that was Matt Bonner on the photo

[tdunk21]

timmy 1 block away

[DarkGinobili]

Manu

[Spurologist]

Doesn't every nba game have a replacement official?

[Mr Fundamental]

Duncan, Manu and now Tony. Hope we stay healthy today.

[TIMMYD!]

What's the lowest amount of points a team has scored in a half this season?

[TIMMYD!]

Doesn't every nba game have a replacement official?

Same thing I was thinking, isn't there like an alternative or something?

[Spurs Brazil]

Damn, TP to the locker room

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

George has picked it up in the 2nd Q, Spurs Brazil. ;)

[timtonymanu]

Terrible Spurs. Terrible.

[TIMMYD!]

Shitty ass ending to a great game.

[noles1983]

lmfao fucking disgusting

[CFH]

Wow, ugly end to the quarter

[024]

this grizzlies defense is quite scary.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

worst finish to half.

[timtonymanu]

Wow they couldn't run one fucking play. Oh well Grizzlies are just trying to be annoying. The Spurs will wake up in the 2nd half.

[Fireball]

a nice defensive effort ruined by the last two minutes ...

[Spurs Brazil]

Terrible finish, terrible

[itzsoweezee]

14 min and bonner only takes one shot. why is he in the game?

[TampaDude]

I knew, just fucking KNEW, the Spurs would choke away that huge lead and only have a single-digit lead at the half. The Grizz are ROLLING now. If they start hitting shots, we're gonna get destroyed.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

What happened to the Mayo/McRoberts trade?

I don't know, but the rest of the league is very happy Mayo didn't end up in Chicago.

Terrible end to the Q. Not too worried though.

[Pauleta14]

WTF happened????!!

I stoped watching 5 mins and we're only up 8?????!!!!!

Why isn't Tp playing?? is he hurt?

[Fireball]

14 min and bonner only takes one shot. why is he in the game? he is in there to space the floor :lol

[Fireball]

Injury situations piling up ...

[TampaDude]

Not even gonna watch the second half now. :bang

I'll be watching Knicks-Heat.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Need I remind everyone that they will come out with intenisty in the 2nd half, especially since Pop is ripping them new arseholes as we speak? :lol

[DesignatedT]

14 min and bonner only takes one shot. why is he in the game?

Spread the floor plus we only have 4 bigs dressed. You'd rather start overplaying Dice and Duncan? The savior Splitter is still hurt, as always.

[FaM0us Skins]

the only thing we need to work on in the second half is to get more rebounds

[Warlord23]

Bonner got pushed around by every Grizzly except maybe Conley and White Chocolate. Rebounding sure is easy when all you have to do is lean on Bonner and get a clear path to the ball.

[Spurs Brazil]

WTF happened????!!

I stoped watching 5 mins and we're only up 8?????!!!!!

Why isn't Tp playing?? is he hurt?

It looks he was hit in the tight. He went to the locker room

[TampaDude]

I guarantee you the Grizzlies will be ahead at the end of the 3rd quarter.

This was a wire game coming in, and that hasn't changed. That 20 point lead was fool's gold. Gonna be a nailbiter right down to the end. I'd say about a 90% chance of OT.

BOOK IT.

[Fireball]

Dallas steamroles over Toronto ... Spurs should better not get the foot of the gas pedal if they want to keep the #1 seed ...

[DesignatedT]

If Splitter was healthy, I'm sure he'd be getting some time right now but that seems to be a big IF with the track record he's shown so far.

[Spurs Brazil]

Memphis - 54FGA
Spurs - 36 FGA

[itzsoweezee]

Spread the floor plus we only have 4 bigs dressed. You'd rather start overplaying Dice and Duncan? The savior Splitter is still hurt, as always.

I just knew some motherfucker was going to say "spread the floor". LMAO. Spurs were doing fine without "spreading the floor."

Dice played 8 minutes, Blair played 12. Bonner did not deserve or need to play more minutes than every other big on the team.

[Spurologist]

The spurs just couldn't finish the whole first half without a terrible stretch of basketball. :lol

[Fireball]

Memphis got many easy fast break points ... Lebron and DWade are already looking forward to next Friday

[Thompson]

Is there a timetable for Splitter or Neal's return?

[TampaDude]

The spurs just couldn't finish the whole first half without a terrible stretch of basketball. :lol

Get a big lead and then shit the bed for awhile to let the other team back into the game...same old Spurs...nothing new or surprising here.

[Pauleta14]

It looks he was hit in the tight. He went to the locker room

thanks

let's hope it's nothing bad, he already had problems (bruises?) with his knee these last games...

[TampaDude]

Memphis got many easy fast break points ... Lebron and DWade are already looking forward to next Friday

WERD...if we do that shit against Miami, we lose by 30.

[Fireball]

WERD...if we do that shit against Miami, we lose by 30.

absolutely, they went nuts on Chicago in the first half ... still lost, but still this is gonna be a test

[DesignatedT]

I just knew some motherfucker was going to say "spread the floor". LMAO. Spurs were doing fine without "spreading the floor."

Dice played 8 minutes, Blair played 12. Bonner did not deserve or need to play more minutes than every other big on the team.

Ummm did I say that it was effective dipshit? You asked what he was in for? The answer is, to spread the floor. Him and Duncan both played 13 and that was with Duncan rolling his ankle a tad. If you have been watching the Spurs regularly this season (which seems unlikely) You would clearly know and see that Dice is not going over 20 minutes in most of these games... If Splitter would like to join the party that would be great but if he is still to pussy to dress well then Bonner= Extra PT.

[Budkin]

Spurs blowing huge leads? What else is new?

[Fireball]

Just saw Spike Lee in the crowd in Miami ... with Melo in the team he now does away games as well
