Spurs Fan Nut Check

[SPARKY]

If you've given up on the team, leave already. This is not to say that everything has been rosy the last couple of games because it hasn't been. There is plenty to discuss and criticize.

But if you are giving up after tonight then be gone. There's no room for you at the inn.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I don't think anyone's giving up on this. The ones we need to worry about are the ones that were out on the court tonight.

[leemajors]

last time i checked the series was tied. the past is a different country, we don't live there anymore. time for the spurs to step up!

[constantstate]

i'm with you...

but while you're asking for a nut check... someone should send a dicdoc over to the spurs locker room.

[TheMrPeanut]

I'm in.

[mavsfan1000]

Last time I checked the Spurs have 2 games at home and could steal the next game. I like their chances.

[whottt]

I'm not giving up...I still think the Pistons will take it in 6.

[mouse]

You guys crack me up....:lmao

[GrandeDavid]

I'm in, but tell the Spurs players and coaches to check their sets as well.

[TMSKILZ]

we're in trouble guys, we've looked worse in these 2 losses than Det did in their losses to us.

[mavsfan1000]

I think San Antonio will benefit from the extra day off. Especially Parker and Ginobili.

[whottt]

2 losses are 2 losses. That's it...

This Spurs team showed more heart than last years team all season long...remember the double OT wins...

These losses would be easier for me to take if I could blame them on Pop...but he's not responsible for every mofo on the team making mutiple TO's.


One thing I am certain of...the Pistons are beating us...but the Spurs are giving them a lot of help. It'd be nice if they stopped doing that for a game or so.

[Nikos]

I'm not giving up...I still think the Pistons will take it in 6.

:lol

For once Whottt made me laugh.

And finally, after this upcoming week the Sato avatar will be gone ! :elephant

[mavsfan1000]

I still think San Antonio in 6. They just need to pick the defensive intensity that was missing in this game and get steals for easy baskets. That is what won them the first 2 games and 2 days off will help.

detroit hasnt been able to win in SA in 10 fucking years...nough said

[MasterYoda]

big, green and low, my nutz are. :makemyday

formidable, our opponent is. mean more, the Spurs Championship, will.

[constantstate]

spurs win the next one and everyone shuts up.
its time to start the rallying cry.

i didnt think it was possible to see duncan really upset. i saw that tonight. so i'm in. i think this next game gets UGLY. i think everyone gets the game they've been wanting to get... A vs. A. and i like our chances with that.

detroit hasnt won in sa... sa hasnt won in detroit...
theres three games where that can happen still.

i'm ALL in.

[NASHville]

[myhc]

Things look grim now but I never give up on my Spurs.

IN.

[Leetonidas]

I'm not giving up...I still think the Pistons will take it UP THE ASS in 6.

:lol

All I gotta say is GO SPURS GO!

[nkdlunch]

Spurs in 6!!!!!!!!!!!

[NCaliSpurs]

In the last three years the Spurs were 2-2 against:

Phoenix (03) -W
LA(03) - W
NJ(03) - W
LA(04) -L
SEA (05) -W

If we can overcome the poor reffing, or may utilize it by become more physical ourselves, we have a chance to win this one too.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

spurs in 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ca®lo]

i aint giving up on the spurs.

this certain AINT THE FIRST TIME were up 2-0 then the series got tied.

last year is totally a different story.

spurs will win game 5. and take the obrien in game 6

spurs in 6.

[violentkitten]

:makemyday

win or lose this is my motherfucking team.

[ballhog]

I'm still with 'em. But, losses like these make it tough. Sigh.

[SPARKY]

Dammit Spurs fans get in line.

[Slomo]

Damn, where's the pic of the squirrel with the big nuts when you need it?

Anyway, you won't get rid of me that easy :) Still here and planning to stay!

[Kori Ellis]

I don't have nuts, so ...

[GattoBlaster]

Us diehard fans were fans of this team back when they just plain sucked...no way we bail on them now.

When we won the Championship in '03, NJ won games 3 & 4 after going down 0-2 in SA...then we won the last game in NJ and the title at home in the sixth game.

Spurs in 6!!!

[Victor Newman]

^ Rack this hairy green ugly bastard :lmao

[mattyc]

It was never going to be easy. Detroit are very good.

We still have 2 games in SA. The past 2 games proves how vital Home Court is.

[Victor Newman]

Damn, where's the pic of the squirrel with the big nuts when you need it?

[baseline bum]

Fucking shit. I'm mad as fuck and disappointed they played like asses these last 2 games, but there's no way I'm picking against this team for the title.

[Brutalis]

why is this so fucking dramatic? sheesh.

spurs in 6, the end.

[mrcoon29]

No drama here. Spurs in 6 has been my mantra. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v58/cliddle/Emotes/thmeditate.gif

me too. If I'm wrong, I'm fucking getting that Pistons Slam Duncan shirt...

[MiNuS]

I seem to think in boxing terms and this was taken on the chin by the Spurs.The question is are they MEN enough to stand up and fight the rest of the series?

[TMTTRIO]

I'm in for the good and the bad. Spurs in 6. They couldn't have played any worse tonight and after Pop goes Serbian on them they will be up for the game on Sunday.

[Ginofan]

It's just tied, we're not down, and we're not out. I wanted to win at home, so that meant losing two there. Now granted I didn't want to lose that bad but oh well. We are going to win this thing and to hell with anyone who doesn't think we will.

Anyone know that whole quote from Arragon in LOTR 3... the one near the end where he is rallying the troops... the " there may be a day... but this is not that day" speech. That is what I'm feeling right now.

Look out Detroit. Here come the Spurs!

[209Goodfella]

These last 2 losses have been tuff on the nutz.
This is going to 7. SPURS WIN IN S.A.!!!!

[violentkitten]

home cookin means a lot for both teams.

[Jelly]

Last time I checked the Spurs have 2 games at home and could steal the next game. I like their chances.

are you kidding?? They lost by 31 points! My guess is they'll only have one game at home. Sorry fellow Spurs fans. My heart is aching.

[TheAfricanFan]

I'm in but we didn't show up for gmes 3 and 4... but Spurs in 6 !!!!

[violentkitten]

and they've won by 15 and 21. get the fuck out if you and your heart cant stand it.

[rwb]

I have learned with the Spurs that it's never over til it's over. I expect them to win the series. But even if they don't, I'm still always a Spurs fan. I'm proud of what they've accomplished and I still think a river parade sounds like a good idea no matter what!

[smeagol]

WTF!

I've been a fan for only a couple of years but I have more faith in the team than guys who claim to follow the Spurs since the 80s (and have +14,000 posts).

Fuck that!

Spurs in six.

[SpurYank]

No, I'm not giving up on them, either. Like a lot of you, I'm a little perturbed at announcers calling Rasheed's whack on the arm " a beautiful steal." On the other hand, I saw a very slow Tim Duncan run back on defense, only to see Ben Wallace lay the ball-in in front of him. I'm also a little perturbed the Spurs aren't listening to Horry's comments that in the playoffs every game is like the seventh game. That was obvious by seeing put backs and offensive rebounds by Pistons in front of a flat-footed Timmy, Nazr, Rasho, Bruce, etc. Then, too, it looks easy from my living room sofa.

I trust that Pop, PJ and the Spurs will strategize and come up with a win on Sunday. Manu may have hit the nail right on the head when he said during the post game interviews that the remedy wasn't better xs and Os, but energy and effort.

If we win Sunday, the Pistons will have an impossible task, taking two in S.A. not to mention a lot of pressure, given the results of games 1 and 2. Then, too, our fans are much less threatening to opposing players then the Piston fans are. The Washington Post said Timmy took a lot of verbal abuse as he sat during the last 5 minutes of the game. Hopefully, that will motivate him to really have a great game. The article added that NBA Finals veterans think the great players get better on the opposition's home court. Regular or good players are intimidated and are unable to perform to their best. The other thing I hear from sportscasters this morning is that the great teams note how the game is being called and make the necessary adjustments. The Pistons failed to do that in S.A. The Spurs have failed to do that in Detroit. When Wallace beat Duncan to our basket, Tim was looking back at an official trying to complain about a no-call. If he wanted to stop playing, he should have called a time-out.

The Pistons only had 3 turnovers, to our 17. Not sure we can call ourselves world champs playing like that.

Some of you have mentioned about how long you've been Spurs fans. I was there in S.A. in 1973 (in the AF) when they stopped being the Dallas Chapparrals and came down with Silas, Kobi, Goo Kennedy, and all. The old Arena was VERY threatening to opposing players then, as Larry Bird and Larry Brown will verify.

[SWC Bonfire]

I've got more nuts than all y'all slackjaws put together!

[travis2]

Step away from the ledge.

[Dingle Barry]

I sent my nuts to the Spurs, care of Tim Duncan. I hope he gets em on time.

[ambchang]

No need to worry (even though I am a bit), remind yourself that the series is tied 2-2, and the Spurs STILL have homecourt advantage. It's a best of three.
I would be worried if the Spurs played normal ball and got waxed like that, but clearly, the Spurs were terrible the last two games. On the other hand, Detroit was terrible the first two games. I would like to see a game, at least, where both sides just go out and play, and play at the top of their games. That would be a quite a game.

[DDS4]

I'm in. Always been in.

Look, Detroit had their best game of the year. They WILL drop off. Spurs just need to nut up and give the execution and effort needed.

[reddog 99]

I couldn't resist any longer. I used to post a lot in the older forums but pretty much enjoyed reading and taking the pulse of the same type of enthusiasts and fanatics.

But I feel the need!

Wipe the slate clean and lets start over. Not too many teams get that opportunity. It could be worse if we would have dropped any at home and be lookin at 3-1 with the closeout still on their home floor. IMO game 5 winner has the foot on the throat and probably will close in 6.

Its all on the line..................................

KICK THEIR ASS FOR FATHERS DAY!!!!!

:drunk :smokin

[Sasha]

I think Manu summed it up pretty well last night when he said that the Pistons just wanted it more than we did.

And if they continue to want it more, they deserve to win it.

But, in my heart, I just can't believe that's true. The Spurs have played with tremendous heart this year - and this is a fantastic team. I can't believe they're just going to lay down and give it up.

I'm no basketball expert like a lot of you guys are - I'm just your average Spurs fan who believes that there's no one in the league any better than we are, no matter what it looks like right now. I believe in these guys.

So I stand by my first prediction: Spurs in 6!

My nuts are good (and hey, thanks for asking), but I think that game shaved a few years off the old ticker.
