Manu Ginobili on the loss against the Blazers:


"It was ridiculous. One of the craziest games I've ever lost in the NBA."

[Anonymous Cowherd]

"Unacceptable."

[Muser]

Spurs win big, book it.

[Giuseppe]

These Spurs losses are a lot of fun, I must admit. Especially that last one where that French fellow spilled your plums all over the great Northwest.

Do I dare aspire to three in-a-row?

Ya darn tootin', ya big Fig Newton.

Maul 'em, Grizz!

Spurs 94
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrizzzzzzzzzzzlies 99

[boutons_deux]

Sat, Dec 18 @ATT W112-106 OT

Tue, Mar 1 @Memphis L109-93

Spurs barely won @ATT, then got smashed in Mem, with Tim.

MEM is a real problem for Spurs, and possible first round opponent.

We'll see tonight and Monday night how they respond from not one, but two straight hard-fought but bonehead losses.

Note: Tony's face to see if he's ready in Memphis or if he's a detached, somewhere-else zombie again.

I figure if the Spurs can't respond with a W tonight, then they're playoff prospects are very dim.

no Tony.

and your last sentence is ludicrous. The Spurs had three game road losing streaks without tim in each of 05 and 07. We won the championship both years.

[DPG21920]

Dice & Tiago will be huge this game. Even with Gasol not playing as well as he did last year, their front line is rugged and can really rebound. Dice & Tiago have to stay out of foul trouble and rebound.

Tony Allen usually gives teams like us trouble, so we have to watch him. TP and Manu really need to have huge games, but Hill/Neal/... need to chip in.

Leon Powe has been a force lately as well

[pawe]

I wont be so sad if the spurs lose this game. I want the hornets to drop to the 8th spot.

[Fireball]

I wont be so sad if the spurs lose this game. I want the hornets to drop to the 8th spot.

Which means nothing if the Spurs cannot mantain the #1 seed ... they have to find a way to win at least 5 of the last 10 games. A win in Memphis would be nice ... they play very physical, lets see if Tiago is up to the task ... I'm afraid he could end up in early foul trouble when defending Z-Bo

[Dex]

Still bitter about that last game, but hoping that if nothing else, it serves as a wakeup call to this team. Their record, and their seed, and their talent won't mean anything if they can't execute and make the right plays in crunch time.

This team has been getting sloppy for a few weeks now and apparently no amount of halftime speeches from Pop were fixing that. Maybe the blatant slap in the face that was that loss will.

[Creation88]

is it actually a a good thing if we lose today? Griz move up and helps us avoid them in the 1st. i'd rather take the Hornets.

[PÒÓCH]

It shouldn't matter who we get in the first round. A #1 seed shouldn't have to worry about a #8 seed. If we do then we are set up for failure.

LOSING IS NEVER A GOOD THING!

another tough one

[Budkin]

is it actually a a good thing if we lose today? Griz move up and helps us avoid them in the 1st. i'd rather take the Hornets.

No it's not a good thing... the number one seed is not a lock anymore. Another loss is going to put way too much pressure on us to win almost all of the remaining games and put the Spurs confidence even lower. I doubt the Lakers lose more than 1, and the Bulls 1 maybe 2. We're in a very precarious situation that we didn't need to be in with those last two losses.

calm down bro. were not losing the 1 seed. win or lose tonight

[spurs10]

calm down bro. were not losing the 1 seed. win or lose tonight
That being said, I hope we play like we mean it...and close it this time!
:flag::lobt::flag:

[DesignatedT]

That being said, I hope we play like we mean it...and close it this time!
:flag::lobt::flag:

The bench is going to have to play a good game if we want to win. Allen will make it difficult on Manu who is probably already a little tired from this 3 game road trip. Splitter will need to play more minutes with that Gasol/Randolph lineup they have down low.

[Spursnlego]

Just gonna have to close out...

[duncan228]

Pop says he doesn't expect players to still be hungover from heartbreaker in Portland. "This is their job. They're grown."

[LakerHater]

Damn, Im worried bout this game!!

[Manu20]

I expect the Spurs to get back on the winning track :toast

[dbreiden83080]

Gotta stop the bleeding

Lets go Spurs

[Spurs Brazil]

we'll win a close one

[duncan228]

Choice of call on my TV LP! :spin

[Doe]

Damn it, Grizzlies call on my league pass broadband. Hope they aren't as annoying as the Portland announcers.

[Spurs Brazil]

Memphis call :(

[Fireball]

Damn it, Grizzlies call on my league pass broadband. Hope they aren't as annoying as the Portland announcers.

Sadly they come close ... they are more annoying than they have the right to be for such a poor franchise.

[DPG21920]

Come on Manu/TP. Have huge games. Dice/Tiago, show some toughness and rough up Marc/ZBO

[Fireball]

Steals will be the key of the game ... TP and Manu have to control the ball better than against Portland as Memphis leads the league in forcing TOs ... second key is defensive rebounding.

[DPG21920]

Conley had been playing well overall as well. He has had a very solid season. He is smart, athletic and has some good size. He can give the Spurs problems.

[CFH]

Splitter AND 1 to start off

[DPG21920]

TP with a terrible drive and lost the ball to start. Bailed out by Tiago.

[Fireball]

haha ... good call

[duncan228]

Nice Splitter!

[spurs1990]

any kind soul PM a link please?

[Spurs Brazil]

Tiago and one!!!

[Thomas82]

Splitter!!!

[c whata11]

hah, griz taking a page out of pops playbook. calling a timeout already.

[Mugen]

Lemme break the ice and say fuck bonner. :lol

[Fireball]

already two fouls on the Grizz ... very good

[jay_shs]

Tiago. Make your free throws. No more dumb defensive fouls. Your man can barely jump over a postage stamp. Attack him.

[AussieFanKurt]

mm grizzlies gifting us good start

[Thomas82]

Splitter with a foul already!!

[duncan228]

Jefferson looking confidant.

[Thomas82]

Rj 333333333333333!!

[duncan228]

:lol



Spurs score four points in first 30 seconds in Memphis. Elsewhere, Nicolas Batum wonders what took so long.

[c whata11]

dammit. goodbye tiago.

[CFH]

And Splitter with 2 fouls

[Thomas82]

Damn Splitter!!!

[WeNeedLength]

Bullshit call.... wow...

[DesignatedT]

Parker getting some guys open shots. Gotta hit em. 2 fouls on Tiago. Looks like we will see little of him tonight. Great.

[Fireball]

two on Splitter ... we are fucked

[Spurs Brazil]

terrible call. weak stupid refs

[Thomas82]

There goes our good start.........

[Rummpd]

Maybe Pop will flip things and put him this time when it counts!

[Ice009]

NBA refs suck.

[DesignatedT]

There you go RJ. Good job TP

[Thomas82]

Another missed layup.........

[Thomas82]

Blair with another turnover.........

[Thomas82]

TP.........and 1

[Spurs Brazil]

those refs sucks. LET THEM PLAY MOFOs

[Capt Bringdown]

Refs on a mission to foul out our depleted frontline...

[WeNeedLength]

Grizz gonna have 60+ points in the paint this game, mark my words...

[CFH]

RJ with 3 3's already

[FaM0us Skins]

dang he let Gasol pass right by him

[DPG21920]

TP's scoring has taken a dip when we can least afford it. He is passing well, but make no mistake, they need his scoring.

[AussieFanKurt]

grizzlies commentators fucking idiots, no fouls can be called on them

[DesignatedT]

LOL RJ. Makin Memphis pay.

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

the refs are freaking out cause now they're going to have to deal with tiago and duncan in the playoffs hahaha damn dick jeff is insane right now

[Spurs Brazil]

RJ on fire!!!!!!!!!!

[ThePop]

RJ wow

[AussieFanKurt]

yeah dicky

[TIMMYD!]

RJ with a shit ton of 3s early on.

[Fireball]

these whistles blow easily on both sides

[DPG21920]

Damn it, TP. Just not doing any kind of scoring and now he's hurt.

[Ice009]

Fuck is that our whole offense. Pass to RJ for three every possession. WOW.

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

fuck what happened to tony??? damn blair with the sick block

[WeNeedLength]

If TP is injured......FML

[Manu20]

RJ not being shy of those 3 balls....3-7 in the first 6 minutes of the game

[Tp9gospursgo]

RJ hitting 3 threes already. Sweet.

[timtonymanu]

Damn TP has been terrible on this road trip.

[jay_shs]

So, I hear that yall don't like how RJ has been disinvolved in the offense lately?

[shyne]

Get Tony out he gets hurt against Memphis every game.

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

what just happened to my channel

[Capt Bringdown]

Parker injured, what???

[DesignatedT]

Fuck is that our whole offense. Pass to RJ for three every possession. WOW.

Now RJ is shooting too much? :lmao

[Fireball]

oh oh ... Bonner/Blair coming up

[DesignatedT]

What happened to TP. Broadband hasn't mentioned anything

[Pauleta14]

The spurs fo should hire a special coach for TP to teach him how to draw a foul!!!!

it's looking like "never 2 without 3" until now...

[Ice009]

TP's scoring has taken a dip when we can least afford it. He is passing well, but make no mistake, they need his scoring.

He's got no confidence is his mid range jumper at all IMO and he's trying to score all his points inside the paint. If he could just hit some mid range shots that would open up his game again.

It's going to be hard for him to score inside the paint against these guys.

[DesignatedT]

Nice shot George.

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

ok im back , im actually surprised at how long it took pop to throw in bonner seeing tiagos fouls and all..... it looks like pop is starting to see the light

[DPG21920]

TP really has been pretty bad when the Spurs needed him most these past couple games. Lets hope he can shake off this bad start today and really step it up. Mem is just going to pound it inside which is trouble.

[itzsoweezee]

Bonner sucks, in case anyone forgot.

[duncan228]

What happened to TP. Broadband hasn't mentioned anything

Seems fine. Bill and Sean didn't say anything either.

[arodz]

Oh bullshit

[timtonymanu]

whats with this team and inbounding the ball?

[WeNeedLength]

This lineup is fucking terrible...:bang

[CFH]

Stupid and sloppy

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

i just told god that we all agree as a fan base to sacrifice bonners health for the overall health of the team. just to let yall know the red head is basketball god food

[arodz]

Can anyone explain why the Spurs have become terrible the last few games at defending the three?

[DPG21920]

Tony just looks out of gas. It's alarming.

[TIMMYD!]

TP has his head up his ass.

[timtonymanu]

WTF TP? Just sit your ass down.

[Spurs Brazil]

take care of the ball

shit

[Ice009]

Give up as many twos as you want but I am fucking sick of giving up 3 point shots.

STOP GIVING UP OPEN 3 POINT SHOTS.

[CFH]

Hill got lucky with that one

[Fireball]

when did the Spurs players become dumb? stupid decisions again

[Ditty]

I rather them be killing us with 3's then points in the paint?

[Spurs Brazil]

Good to see Hill attacking. His last game at Memhis was his worst ever

[Mugen]

its nice to see RJ/Hill play well early because its pretty obvious that Manu/TP are running on fumes on this trip....

[Capt Bringdown]

Not sure if Bonner fronting his man is the best defense

[DPG21920]

It is nice to see Hill making some things happen on forays to the paint. Even if he does look a little out of control.

[Splits]

Solid D by Bonner, forcing the turnover.

[Fireball]

Can anyone explain why the Spurs have become terrible the last few games at defending the three?

according to stats they do not defend the three well all year ... now Mayo is hot and he was a non-factor in the first three games if I remember correctly

[jay_shs]

Take Manu out and see what happens.

[DPG21920]

Wow, TP is playing terrible.

[WeNeedLength]

We are such a 3pt chucking team with Duncan not in the lineup...

[c whata11]

two on dejuan and two on splitter. i hope we dont have to see novak get raped by the memphis frontline.

[Fireball]

bad call again

[DPG21920]

TP, are you serious. GTFO.

[Pauleta14]

He's got no confidence is his mid range jumper at all IMO and he's trying to score all his points inside the paint. If he could just hit some mid range shots that would open up his game again.

It's going to be hard for him to score inside the paint against these guys.

You're probably right about his confidense in his JS, but I'm sur he's been asked by Pop to penetrate as much as he can, even more with Tim absence...

[timtonymanu]

I see Tony Brothers made some phone calls.

[Ice009]

Bonner's shooting has gone down the shitter.

Why does that happen. What is different. Pressure situations he gets so tight. Get him a hooker or something.

[CFH]

Parker misses both free throws

[arodz]

Thanks Matt

[DPG21920]

Tony literally can't do anything right.

[WeNeedLength]

Bonner just got bitchslapped for the rebound... :(

[TIMMYD!]

Who's that dumbass on the Grizzlies bench that keeps pounding his chest after every lay-up?

[timtonymanu]

Damn it TP, whats wrong with you?

[Ice009]

TP 0/2 from the free throw line LOL.

PATHETIC TP.

[Spurs Brazil]

fuck weak Bonner GET OUT

[DPG21920]

Thank goodness TP is out and Neal is in. Watch us get the lead back. Now Dice is hurt.

[AussieFanKurt]

good board bonner

[timtonymanu]

Ahh! Typical Spurs starts lately. Start the quarter well. Play dumb and lose the lead.

[DPG21920]

It would be great if TP and Hill could ever play well in the same game.

[WeNeedLength]

We're already shorthanded and now the refs are trying to FUCK us. Got damn it

[Capt Bringdown]

So much for the "individual games don't matter" idea.
We look utterly demoralized.

[FaM0us Skins]

Last time we played them Darrel killed us

[DesignatedT]

Manu and Tony both look like shit. Going to need big games out of George/Gary and RJ to win this

[DPG21920]

Tiago with a great offensive board.

[timtonymanu]

Ugh this Spurs team is getting so annoying to watch.

[c whata11]

james anderson sighting.

[Mugen]

nobodys a bigger Bonner fan than Darrell Arthur.

[WeNeedLength]

Yay more stepback threept misses for Ginobili. Not sure I really want to watch this game tbh...

[DPG21920]

I don't think it was the Portland loss that made the Spurs look so bad. I think it is what I said; they are out of juice.

[DesignatedT]

oh my god. fucking free throws

[itzsoweezee]

Gotdamn, you people are hysterical. Calm the F down.

[DPG21920]

Good board by James :wow

[AussieFanKurt]

Splitter hit your fucking FTs

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

these refs are lame debby downers

[WeNeedLength]

Gotdamn, you people are hysterical. Calm the F down.

If someone is watching a train wreck slowly about to happen, people have the right to express themselves...:lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu and Tony playing bad and we're close. Not that bad

[timtonymanu]

Who's that dumbass on the Grizzlies bench that keeps pounding his chest after every lay-up?

I think it's Tony Allen. Typical Celtics product.

[DPG21920]

First Quarter:

The Good - RJ's shooting and intensity. Tiago's rebounding and defense (despite the fouls). Hill being aggressive and making some things happen.

The Bad - TP looks like injured TP. Manu really a non factor. Overall energy not great.

[Capt Bringdown]

I don't think it was the Portland loss that made the Spurs look so bad. I think it is what I said; they are out of juice.

Demoralizing losses will do that to ya.

[jay_shs]

Manu's 2 fouls

[Fireball]

TP does not look soo bad ... he is defended very well and they put many bodies in the paint.

[DPG21920]

Demoralizing losses will do that to ya.

They were out of juice long before the Portland game.

[Mugen]

Hill/RJ/Neal are gonna have to step up this game. Hopefully Pop alternates McDyess and Splitter in there along with Blair and Bonner...

[Ice009]

lol I was yelling come on Saint Tiago on those free throws to try and get one in. Looks like that poster got to me ;).

Tiago really needs any help he can get from anywhere on his free throws.

[itzsoweezee]

McDyess has not played well in Duncan's absence. That's probably what causes me the greatest concern.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Manu is playing a little bit too angry right now.

[BillMc]

First Quarter:

The Good - RJ's shooting and intensity. Tiago's rebounding and defense (despite the fouls). Hill being aggressive and making some things happen.

The Bad - TP looks like injured TP. Manu really a non factor. Overall energy not great.

This. Spot on.

Still if RJ and Hill stay "in the game" I like our chances. TP and Manu will come around.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Tiagooooooo

[TIMMYD!]

Fucking shit. We can't grab a fucking rebound.

[DPG21920]

Damn, Tiago is ballin'.

[DPG21920]

Very patient, used his body and easy finish.

[AussieFanKurt]

good play split

[Tp9gospursgo]

Bonner sucks.......

[DPG21920]

Powe with a strong move.

[Ice009]

Splitter FUCKING KEEP DOING IT MAN.

[CFH]

Spurs getting killed on the glass to the start the quarter

[DPG21920]

:lol Shane posting up. Give me a break.

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

Bonner's shooting has gone down the shitter.

Why does that happen. What is different. Pressure situations he gets so tight. Get him a hooker or something.

its mental weakness, thats exactly the result of a man with no guts or balls.

and on a second note to all the splitter haters that said we'd be lucky of he was oberto kiss his braz. ass

oh and check out old faithful bonner

[Mugen]

lmao at bonners rebounding.

[Spurs Brazil]

Take Bonner out please

He's awful and scared

[Mugen]

get that ginger out and put in novak Pop.

[AussieFanKurt]

can bonner box out?

[itzsoweezee]

Tiago and Tim would be an awesome frontcourt combo. Tiago is the pick and roll maestro and Tim can post up anyone on the block. And imagine a backup frontcourt of Blair + McDyess.

Hope Pop gets his head out of his ass.

[Capt Bringdown]

The lone brightspot during Duncan's absence has been Splitter's emergence. He is very much the serviceable big we've been looking for.

Pop, WTF is your problem?

[timtonymanu]

Fuckin Battier. Always shoots well against us.

[spurspokesman]

Take Bonner out please

He's awful and scared
this

[AussieFanKurt]

liking hills play

[alchemist]

tiago the god

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

wow tiago looks so soft out there , psshhh i havent seen Defense like that in a very long time

[Fireball]

I thought Powe was done ... now he reappers in Memphis ... whew

[AussieFanKurt]

neal withit

[jay_shs]

Manu, quit being so damn unselfish.

[alchemist]

liking hills play
:toast all it took was 2 of the worst losses of the year to wake him up :bang :lol

[timtonymanu]

Good to see RJ and Hill playing aggressive. We really need them to show some pulse for the playoffs.

[Spurs Brazil]

Tiago playing solid d on all games he started. When TD is back Bonner or Blair need to get out. Tiago earned a spot in the rotation with his D

[Capt Bringdown]

Block by Splitter!
Splitter shitting all over Pop's pock-marked grill.
FU, Pop!

[Fireball]

splitter huge block ...

does anyone else see that matt bonner hurts this team

if he is not making his shots ... absolutely

[Creation88]

Who's the fucking tool on the grizzly bench getting pumped up for every Griz make?

[Fireball]

Tiago playing solid d on all games he started. When TD is back Bonner or Blair need to get out. Tiago earned a spot in the rotation with his D

Hopefully Pop hears you ...

[c whata11]

man, hill is playing aggressive to today. bout time.

[DPG21920]

Spurs have done a good job on Tony Allen and Conley. They need to keep those two under wraps.

[Ice009]

I thought Powe was done ... now he reappers in Memphis ... whew

I wanted the Spurs to take a look at him when he was released. FUCKING AWFUL as usual they are looking at 6-5 guys.

[CFH]

Hill has definitely stepped it up

[Mugen]

third game blog in a row. Fuck you Gregg Popovich for playing Blar/Bonner over Tiago all year.

[DesignatedT]

atleast george looks better tonight. best i've seen him in awhile so far. keep it up george

[TIMMYD!]

The lone brightspot during Duncan's absence has been Splitter's emergence. He is very much the serviceable big we've been looking for.

Pop, WTF is your problem?

Shame he probably won't play with Tim when he comes back.

[DPG21920]

Aurthur playing well. Nice energy. He is a good athlete.

[Fireball]

George Hill was not this aggressive in a long time

[DPG21920]

I hope Dice is good. Spurs can't afford to lose him.

[Ice009]

Bonner, we need you to help us win this game. Please find something within yourself and help us win the game.

[alchemist]

Spurs still need a shot blocker out there, tiago the god doing his job but those shots don't block themselves.

[WeNeedLength]

Bonner is ABSOLUTELY useless when he's clanking shot after shot and giving up offensive rebound after offensive rebound...

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

im sorry for talking shit, but i cant believe spurs fans thought tiago was a scrub.. he doesnt even have his legs completely under him! george is doing great also. i dont think pop can bench tiago anymore.

i believe pop used the mental breakdown military bullshit to make sure tiago wasnt too confident... which is wrong..hes a control freak, and look matt missing everything and letting everyone score yet playing with no accountability

[AussieFanKurt]

fucking get bonner out

[Mugen]

thank god.

[itzsoweezee]

Bonner apologists :lol

[WeNeedLength]

LOVING Hill's aggressiveness. Keep it up!

[Ditty]

there you go Hill drive to the basket more that's when you are your best

[ffadicted]

D looks awful tonight imo

[AussieFanKurt]

at last bonner

[Mugen]

love Hill's play tonight, needs to do this more consistently.

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

Spurs have done a good job on Tony Allen and Conley. They need to keep those two under wraps.

yeah esp allen for some reason

[DesignatedT]

nice take hill. somebody woke him up

[wunderkindepiphany]

everyone here is talking shit about Pop not playing Tiago, but does anyone but remember when Tiago would get winded after about 5 minutes on the court. Pop has been conservative with his approach to incorporate Tiago and it will pay dividends. Think long-term, you know, like were you coaching a team and not just watching it on TV. Tiago still has a long way to go, but it looks like he's bulked up a bit and he is standing his ground and playing simple and effective D. . .which is more than I can say for Bonner. Tiago still is not in great game shape. It will come.

[Spurs Brazil]

Hill doing a great job attacking; nice to see

[alchemist]

third game blog in a row. Fuck you Gregg Popovich for playing Blar/Bonner over Tiago all year.
:lol if the guy wasn't paper soft to start out the year I'm sure he would be starting by now

[DPG21920]

Lets go TP, come on.

[Mugen]

Get Tiago out with his 2 fouls Pop, fuck saving Blair.

[WeNeedLength]

LOVING Hill's aggressiveness. Keep it up!

Then he gets subbed for a shitty-playing Parker?!?!?! WTF

[CFH]

WTF Bonner

[Ice009]

Good to see RJ and Hill playing aggressive. We really need them to show some pulse for the playoffs.

I am liking George Hill's play. Great play George. Keep doing it.

[Mugen]

:lol if the guy wasn't paper soft to start out the year I'm sure he would be starting by now

yup Bonner/Blair were so much tougher :lmao

[TIMMYD!]

Manu seems to be the only one on the team that can find Splitter open consistently, TP doesn't even consider it.

[ffadicted]

lol wtf bonner

[itzsoweezee]

Bonner, LMAO

[Ice009]

This is an epic meltdown from Bonner.

Pop's got egg on his face.

[Mugen]

Arthur has killed us 3 straight games in a row.

[rasho8]

Splitter has been open about a dozen times in this quarter. Memphis seems to know that they dont have to guard him because no one will pass him the damn ball.

[itzsoweezee]

Bonner, you're absolutely fucking worthless. It amazes me that this guy is even playing in the NBA.

[Fireball]

Arthur hits everything against the Spurs ... I hate that

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

:lmao matt makes a disgusting arch shot after penetration the next play hes trying to throw up tear drops as he penetrates off the dribble. this dude is seriously delusional. i mean i would be too if pop sucked my red rocket everyday

[alchemist]

yup Bonner/Blair were so much tougher :lmao
tougher than tiago the god for sure, and that's saying a lot.

Stop talking shit about Pop's rotations. They're not going to change. If I were coach, Manu would get 37 mpg and Tiago would have all but 3 of Bonner and Blair's minutes each, but you don't see me at the game in street clothes, do you?

[spurspokesman]

yup Bonner/Blair were so much tougher :lmao

Blair is tough but lacks iq

Matt bonner just ran a circle on that last def poss and covered no one

While the Spurs are hanging tough, I don't see them beating MEM in MEM without TP and Manu really scoring a lot more.

[Mugen]

tougher than tiago the god for sure, and that's saying a lot.

:rolleyes yeah definitely looking like the case right now....


Even at his absolute softest this year, Tiago was light years ahead of Bonner rebounding/defending

[Creation88]

Matt Bonner gives up another And 1

Yeah, the way you get a player into game shape and integrate him into the rotation is with DNPCD's.
