Gregg Popovich on Tiago Splitter:


"Tiago is going to give you that every night. He's going to bust his butt to rebound and play defense. He's going to give you that grunt that every team needs and every coach loves."

[Texas_Ranger]

fuck, they've got Monta!! :rollin

[Bukefal]

Patience lol, im still editing it :lol

[SpurAddict561]

Won't be easy but we can definitely win this!

Next 4 games will show some serious resilience if we can gut them out without Timmy!

[TIMMYD!]

That quote from Pop is interesting, we'll have to see if that holds up till the playoffs.

[dougp]

Yay, a late game - NOT. Freaking hate these 9:30pm CDT games.

[Reck]

Same.

Game starts at 10:30 PM for me.

The Spurs better win. I'm not for waiting half a day to watch them lose.

[BRs.Ganso]

Late? Here in Brazil is just 11:30PM

thats late!

Fire test to Tiago tonight against Nene

[Dex]

Big one here. Time to start holding the fort without Tim.

[Spurs Brazil]

Game will be live on ESPN here in Brazil

[ginobili fan]

do you think the spurs can win this game?

[Reck]

do you think the spurs can win this game?

Yep. I dont see why not.

Not having Duncan is a bad thing but it shouldn't matter too much that they cant win without him. Well at least to teams like the Nuggets and the Hawks.

Special guest at Spurs shootaround in Denver: Ex Cavs coach Mike Brown. Even Danny Green came over to say hello.

[TampaDude]

The Spurs have plenty of weapons, even without Timmy...they should win this game without too much difficulty.

[Dex]

The Spurs have plenty of weapons, even without Timmy...they should win this game without too much difficulty.

Denver has a lot of weapons, too, and is playing solid ball right now.

I think the Spurs will be able to hang, but I expect it to be a tough game.

I guess only time will tell.

JMcDonald_SAEN Jeff McDonald
Manu says loss of Melo/Billups makes Nuggets "more unpredictable." Said team had to study Denver more than in previous meetings. #spurs

[Obstructed_View]

This should be a really fun game. Neither team has any tape on anybody. The Lakers and Suns set the record for scoring last night. The Spurs and Nuggs could top that in regulation.

[DesignatedT]

This will be a tough game. Denver is playing great.

why are messina and brown coming? can the spurs hire any of them now as assistants? how many assistant coaches can team have....

i sure like mike brown for his defensive schemes....

[TampaDude]

Just win, baby! :hat

[ohmwrecker]

This will be a tough game. Denver is playing great.

Denver is a tough matchup for the Spurs defensively. They have a lot of long bodies that can score. The good news is that the Nuggets aren't that great defensively (they allow the most ppg of any WC playoff team). The Spurs will have to play above par team D and uptempo offense to win this game. Tony and Manu will both have to have big games and Blair/McDyess/Splitter will have to play focused defense to make up for Duncan's absence. RJ, Hill or Neal will have to be an X factor.

Should be a fun game to watch.

[mingus]

as everyone else, i wanna see Splitter play and play well hopefully. it'll be interesting to see how tired he gets since he's not really even in game shape and he's playing at a higher altitude. he's also playing against a physical front line. it'll be interesting to see how he handles himself, if he gets intimidated or not. it's definitely an opportunity for him to make a statement.

[DesignatedT]

Splitter is well out of game shape. The altitude should give him some problems also. Not sure how many minutes he can handle at the moment. Hopefully around 25. He played that last game and was clearly fatigued leading to missed layups and him slowly getting back on D. Throwing him out there for anymore then that right off the bat isn't the right thing to do for him or the team.

[DesignatedT]

crofl @ saying bonner is good ....
crofl @ bonner comes in the other team attacks him

?

[TampaDude]

Time for Splitter's baptism by fire. Let's see what he's got.

[Mugen]

im just hoping the officials let him be somewhat physical out there. he picked up 2-3 bs calls against the Warriors.

I think he'll start and probably play 20-25 minutes i hope. Pop's baby'd him all season long. I say just throw him out there and see if sinks or swims.

[DesignatedT]

Should be interesting to see if he can keep with a very improved Nene since they play together on the brazillian national team and all.

[TampaDude]

Would be nice to win this one comfortably, but .500 ball gets us HCA...that said, I think we go something like 8-4 to finish the season, and rest the starters for the last 2-3 games.

[Mugen]

im much more confident about this game than the Portland game. I actually think we go 2-1 on the trip with victories tonight and against Memphis.

i always enjoy when the Denver crowd boos Manu. They hate him down there especially since he was close to being a Nugget.

[Reck]

I think Bonner is due for a good 3-pt shooting game.

He hasn't had one in quite some time now.

[Reck]

They hate him down there especially since he was close to being a Nugget.


Tell me MOAR!

[Juggity]

I think Bonner is due for a good 3-pt shooting game.

He hasn't had one in quite some time now.

And he probably won't have another good one until...October :(

[Dex]

I miss vBookie. Tonight would be a perfect night to bet on Splitter's PTS+REB total.

I'm gonna say 26.

[Mugen]

Tell me MOAR!

i think it was the summer of 05 when Manu was a free agent and Denver was among his top choices...pretty sure Manu took less than what DEN was offering to stay in SA...

[boutons_deux]

Splitter.br vs Hilario.br

[BRs.Ganso]

Splitter.br vs Hilario.br

Hilario is a half Brazilian!

because he never plays for Brazil NT! :p:

Go Tiago! :flag:

The holy triumvirate of Splitter, Bonner and Novak will deliver tonight.

[Reck]

i think it was the summer of 05 when Manu was a free agent and Denver was among his top choices...pretty sure Manu took less than what DEN was offering to stay in SA...

Thanks for the info.

[Budkin]

Here's the Manu to Denver article from 2004.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=1835202

[Obstructed_View]

They hate him because he kicks their ass.

BTW, how scary deep is this team when the tenth and eleventh guys are capable of leading the team in scoring and/or rebounding? If only they had a backup point guard. Is it too late to pick up AD?

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

@obstructed view :toast another day to see if pop calls the golden child from heaven, what do you guys think ??? it seems almost planned the way everything is turning out so far!! oh btw wheres thats tiago hater at????:wakeup

@obstructed view :toast another day to see if pop calls the golden child from heaven, what do you guys think ??? it seems almost planned the way everything is turning out so far!! oh btw wheres thats tiago hater at????:wakeup

Since I have been wanting to see Splitter get time, and since I think the Spurs are better defensively with him in the rotation, and since I think the Spurs can't get past the Lakers or the Celtics without some lock-down defense, I think this couldn't be a better turn of events. It's too bad that Timmy had to get hurt, and I certainly wish Pop were smart enough to realize that defense has been buttering his bread all these years, but short of that, I'll take a little divine intervention. :)

[DesignatedT]

No word on the starting lineup huh?

I'm thinkin that means about 6 or 7 games for Duncan. Still good news. Plenty of time to get back on the court and into a little rhythm before the playoffs

[bigdog]

Exactly. I think most people assume that Pop really meant he'll be back in 5 games. I see it as 8 games max. Either way, as long as he's back with a couple of games left, we should be fine.

[duncan228]

Duncan will miss 4 or 5 games 'for sure'. We wait it out to see when he'll actually get back.


..."Once he gets back on the court in a couple of days, we’ll be able to tell more,” Popovich said. “But four or five games for sure.”

http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursnation/2011/03/23/duncan-to-miss-4-or-5-games/

[PÒÓCH]

He doesn't need more than 25 minutes,
I'd rather see old man McD get some PT along with Boner and Novakaine.
Although I think Bonner has been playing awful as of late

[Fireball]

Good news on Timmy ... now lets keep that game competitive!

Is Afflalo playing?

[DPG21920]

Honestly, this is why RJ was brought in and why he is paid the big bucks. Spurs needed more firepower. They needed someone who was an athlete and who could fill it up, especially when one of the big 3 wasn't cutting it. Now is that time. Get hot going into the playoffs, RJ. We need you.

[Cessation]

I think its been obvious since preseason, with blair starting, that spurs are a small team, and will get pummelled in the playoff by the laker bigs. Guess, its better late then never, that pop realized it.

[TampaDude]

Okay...LET'S GET IT ON!!!

GO SPURS GO!!!!!

[Spurologist]

Splitter!

Big test against fellow Brazilian

[duncan228]

maybe if Pop would call an iso play once in a while for him. I'd like to see him on the block now that we dont have a legit post threat.

[Fermixalot]

Splitter starting, lets go Tiago, show us what you got!!!

[Fireball]

Not sure, but don't see him listed.

ok ... Manu has a tough time when Afflalo is guarding him

nice. hubie brown tonight.

oh noes its hubie

that is the one thing these extra minutes should bring, less "rookie calls" for Tiago over time

[timtonymanu]

Can hear the Spurs fan.

[DPG21920]

Hell ya, Tiago! Nice pass and shot for Dice.

[spurspokesman]

I like this lineup so far

[tdunk21]

i see improvement in splitter...what does everybody think?

[Juggity]

Maybe Tiago is the Great Savior after all

[Spurs Brazil]

good job Manu

[Reck]

Manu needs to learn when to cool it.

When he starts shooting 3s he forgets he has the ability to drive to the ring.

[c whata11]

lol :toast
hah, i just saw that :toast

[ohmwrecker]

Gallinari's eyes are too close together.

[CFH]

Manu looking good early on

[Fermixalot]

Gallinari's eyes are too close together.

I couldn't put my finger on it, but that is exactly why he looks so weird.

[spurspokesman]

late foul call

[TampaDude]

Wow...LATE whistle there on Dice...

[Mugen]

not a fan of those late foul calls where the refs wait to see if he misses it before calling the foul....if its a foul then call it when it happens....

[Death In June]

Didn't catch that angle on TDs sprain. Looked nasty.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I wonder why Denver is switching everything. It won't work.

[Cessation]

wow another late call, home cooking in full force already

[Bill_Brasky]

Home cookin there.........great D by Dice and he gets punished for it.

[Fireball]

these late whistles suck ...

[spurspokesman]

offensive foul yea

[Libri]

Gallinari's eyes are too close together.

Marco Jaric says hello.

[DesignatedT]

fuckin a. 3 gimmies tiago and dice

[Mugen]

gotta go stronger Tiago

[Spurologist]

FUCK

That shot has to be 100% for splitter

[timtonymanu]

Home cooking for Denver right now

[CFH]

I hate Splitter's hookshot

[spurspokesman]

RJ needs to drive more

[TampaDude]

FTs keeping Nuggz in this game so far.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs D look good so far

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

How does Splitter miss two foot hooks like that? He got in there perfectly, couldn't finish... lack of lift in his legs?

[DPG21920]

Parker has to get more aggressive. He is playing fine, but he really needs to abuse Lawson.

[ShoogarBear]

Rasho just texted Tiago: "Go up stronger, dude!"

[Chieflion]

Gallo just flailing his way to the line. Haven't seen anything worse since Corey Maggette.

[spurspokesman]

Been 5 on 8 so far...that better change...

[Pauleta14]

Parker has to get more aggressive. He is playing fine, but he really needs to abuse Lawson.


it's Manu time right now, TP will have to "step up" later...

[DPG21920]

Give Tiago some time. He is right there. Playing well overall, just has to convert that. Tim misses a ton of chip shots as well. Our bigs just aren't elite finishers.

[DesignatedT]

How does Splitter miss two foot hooks like that? He got in there perfectly, couldn't finish... lack of lift in his legs?

That's what I have always attributed it to but it's still pretty early in the game. He misses a lot of shots around the rim.

[ohmwrecker]

Pretty sloppy so far. Spurs are going to have to take those charges from Gallinari.

[spurspokesman]

:lol
Rasho just texted Tiago: "Go up stronger, dude!"

[TampaDude]

Spurs look pretty solid so far. Looks very much like a winnable game.

[DesignatedT]

product of excellence wtf you talkin about karl

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I hate Splitter's hookshot

He came in with those awful, low, half-flip-shots, and now he's at least got the proper form on the hook. With an offseason of work on it I think it'll be markedly better next year.

[Cessation]

I agree, Splitter looks MUCH better.

[TIMMYD!]

Any chance that guy with the girl being shown is a poster?

[Spurs Brazil]

Dice J

[TampaDude]

That Dice midrange J is pure $$$$$.

[DesignatedT]

good job rj. looks like he is being more assertive.

[Fireball]

Team looks good ... if Splitter was making all these shots he easily would have played more up to this point. He is an offensive liability, but his defense is good enough already ...

[spurspokesman]

Good driveand kick from RJ

[DPG21920]

Spurs really have to watch the TO's with Tim out. They need to take care of the ball and up the pace.

[Avitus1]

Lets get the Nuggets!

[Juggity]

Let's start scoring points again, spurs. I liked it better when we were up by 10

[TampaDude]

Wow...WTF was that, boys???

[DesignatedT]

manu settling way too much. one of those nights i see

[timtonymanu]

Manu playing dumb those two plays

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

That's what I have always attributed it to but it's still pretty early in the game. He misses a lot of shots around the rim.

It's not going to help us this year, but this offseason I think Timmy and the coaches will put him through a low-post clinic. All he needs is a reliable hook and a counter, say an up-and-under. A drop step would also be nice.

[spurspokesman]

Ginobilli getting sloppy

[TIMMYD!]

Manu is shooting way too many 3s right now.

[Spurs Brazil]

Tiago nice reb, great pass, Tony layup

[tdunk21]

good one tony

[ShoogarBear]

Niiiiiiiice pass, Tiago.

[Nathan89]

nice splitter. rebound and pass

[spurspokesman]

Good move tony

[ducks]

Manu grow up
you do not have to score yours and duncans points

[phxspurfan]

Splitter's length is already having an effect...he's discouraging shots when he rotates.

[Spurologist]

uh oh Blair and Bonner in

[timtonymanu]

Bonner/Blair time Ugh

[ducks]

manu are you a rookie or a vetern

pop you are sucking his balls not booners tonight why

[Spurs Brazil]

14pts for the Nuggets with Tiago/Dice

Let's see what Bonner/Blair will do

[Texas_Ranger]

Bonner, Blair... oh man.

[spurspokesman]

Oh god blair and bonner

[DPG21920]

I wish RJ played like Gallo. It is exactly how he should play.

The dreaded BlairBonner monster.

How did Bonner managed to missed THAT ????!!!!!!!!!

[Bill_Brasky]

Splitter woulda been able to finish that and prolly get the call......fuckin Bonner.

[Mugen]

good move/pass by DeJuan. Bonner getting bailed out.

we can get away with the Blair/Bonner frontcourt if Birdman is the other big...

[DesignatedT]

Tony still looking good. He's been awesome the past month

[Cessation]

lol manu getting his bonner on, dont hate

[DPG21920]

How did Bonner managed to missed THAT ????!!!!!!!!!

Tired legs.

[Borosai]

He was going to dunk it, but he's thinking of the trees.

[TampaDude]

How the F did Bonner not take that first shot?

+1 He had a WFO 3...take the shot, dude! You're the best 3-point shooter in the NBA!

[Fireball]

JR is an absolute offensive beast.

George will have a tough time if JR gets hot ...

[timtonymanu]

For once Blair actually passed in that situation.

[Pauleta14]

TP's touch on the teardrop is exceptional. Whenever he gets within 10ft of the rim he just flips it up there and rarely sees anything but net. Remember in his first two seasons how he couldn't finish at the rim? Now he can layup with either hand and tear-drop from 10ft in. Amazing. Here's to you, TP. :toast
