Game Blog: Spurs vs Mavs- Jan 29th - 5:30 PM CT

[urunobili]

:lol @3pt barrage... JA even hit the first shot of his career! :lmao

So much for the blowout... props to the energy team!

overly harsh TBH. last season he hit the last shot that earned the Spurs a victory i think it was against NOH...

[Cant_Be_Faded]

OMG. No way I thought that Anderson three was good.

biggest shot of his career, yo

[Mal]

Bring Tim & Tony back!!


Fuck no.

[loveforthegame]

Hope Pop sticks with this group.

[simba80328]

quick! trade JA while he has slight value..
I hope this is a sign of change for JA i really think he has potential

[pgardn]

Still no good unless we can get some stops.

Get the heck in the jump shooters face...

[jag]

The hot 3 point shooting helped... but making stops got us here... let's see if Pop sticks with this group

Agreed. I expect to see the ball fed to Dirk.

[ace3g]

how do the Spurs get Mr. Anderson integrated into the Matrix; decline his option; force him to work for a contract

[Fireball]

Bring Tim & Tony back!!

why?

[ElNono]

Bring back Tony to shot us back out of this game :stirpot:

[Juggity]

Holy fuck I turn off the game for ten minutes figuring all is lost and come back to this :wow

[Cry Havoc]

Glad I didn't turn this game off.

[Proxy]

Tiago defending Dirk!!!!!!

[The ADMIRAL 50]

i bet dallas will sign anderson next year.

This.

[Mal]

Spurs on the lead

[DPG21920]

[crc21209]

Danny Green 333333333333333333333

[ace3g]

and I totally forgot this game was on Fox Sports Net, switched immediately, Spurs take the lead with the Green 3!!!

[shorttotry]

Fuck yeah Green!

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Wow

[maverick1948]

Holy Crap Batman!! Spurs take the lead!!!

[Cry Havoc]

THREE. Omg.

[Fermixalot]

Danny Green is the truth!!!!

[angelbelow]

Green's been an absolute beast this quarter.

[ElNono]

defense, defense, defense

[Nathan89]

Perhaps Splitter wouldn't be playing like shit in the post if Pop showed some confidence in him. You can't play a player 4:36 and not expect a negative impact.

[ace3g]

Bonner clutch 3!!!

[jag]

What

the

fuck

[Mal]

Oh my god

[crc21209]

Bonner 3333333333333333333333333333

[Cry Havoc]

BONNER.

SPURS UP 4.

Can you believe?

[timvp]

Somewhere Steve Kerr is rolling over in his grave.

[shorttotry]

In-fucking-believable

[benefactor]

Who the hell are these guys?

[Fireball]

I cannot stop laughing

[therealtruth]

Neal's showing some of that playmaking ability.

[loveforthegame]

What a crazy ass game. Damn this is fun.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL

We've witnessed

1) Mavericks looking like THEY blew their wad with that high energy Defense
2) Spurs bench staying focused and running the Vanilla Spurs Offense

those two combined have given us the lead

Amazing.

[Spurs Brazil]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!


WTF is this?????????????

[biskvito]

lol 3pt fest

nice D by Splitter on Nowitszky

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I am STUNNED! I turned off the game thinking Pop put in the white flag.

This is unreal :lol

[ElNono]

Who the hell are these guys?

:lmao

[maverick1948]

Now I know why Tim and Tiago dont need to play together. Picture Tiago, Matt, Gary, Danny and MANU instead of JA. WOW

[The ADMIRAL 50]

Bonner's plus/minus is soaring right now :lol

[ace3g]

wow that was a lot of emotion by Bonner

[DesignatedT]

wow lol

[pgardn]

This is ridiculous.

This is not the MO of this team.

[timmike2]

omg i'm about to cry! :((

[DPG21920]

Holy shit :lol Bench MOB. Tiago's Crew playing hard for their leader.

[Mal]

Energy ! They are running, hustling and the game is going their way. So easy for bench guys. Run, hustle, defend, make shots :)

[TheSpurglar]

I'm not able to watch the game where I'm at. Are they just playing 4-down with Splitter? Or what?

[shorttotry]

Somewhere Steve Kerr is rolling over in his grave.

I wish he was the commentator right now

[Fireball]

Somewhere Steve Kerr is rolling over in his grave.

who is that zombie jobbing for TNT?

[jag]

4DVAsmrwdtQ

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

This is insane!

[timtonymanu]

Holy shit can we Miami the Mavericks?

[simba80328]

Vince the walking corpse carter of course has a season high in points against us.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

overly harsh TBH. last season he hit the last shot that earned the Spurs a victory i think it was against NOH...

True, but he's hardly made a shot this year, shooting 37% from the field. Glad to see him bury one.

Most improbably comeback of the year so far. What did Pop say to them I wonder?

[bklynspursfan]

You are drunk, go to bed :toast

You were saying?

[Crookshanks]

I turned the volume down because it was so hard to listen to the commentary, and I figured the Spurs were gonna get spanked. I turned back a couple of minutes ago - and OMG - the Spurs are ahead! Way to go, guys! Now keep it up!

[The Reckoning]

come on terry start hitting some 3s for muh fantasies

[Mal]

They are red hot from beyond

[bklynspursfan]

Green lookin real confident with that shot.... Wish it counted

[Cant_Be_Faded]

FUCK mahinmi is still screwing us with his fouls!!!!!

[DPG21920]

Longest 7 minutes ever.

[jag]

Pick n Roll ball man keeps missing Tiago on the roll.

[Mal]

Dont bring Jefferson. No matter what

[Fermixalot]

Danny Green is absolutely on fire! The entire group is playing tough, tough defense and making shots. Hopefully we can get some separation here.

[Libri]

The problem is that there is still a lot of time left. I don't know if this group can hold up.

[ace3g]

Bonner what the hell, why so clutch tonight

[bklynspursfan]

Nice dish from JA and finish from Matty

[benefactor]

qjfLK;JFepifubonner

[shorttotry]

What foul?

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol Splitter gets more terrible foul calls against him than any player I've ever seen..

[bklynspursfan]

I love how Terrys face changes when they're being hit in the gut. No more hand waving, jet flying BS...

[Mal]

The problem is that there is still a lot of time left. I don't know if this group can hold up.

I`ll take whatever it gives. The game was already thrown away :downspin:

[Fermixalot]

Danny Green got to that shot too.....

[InRareForm]

Wonder who will get the last burn?

[Fireball]

Splitter ... not bad against Terry

[loveforthegame]

They're going to run out of gas.

[crc21209]

Of course Terry gets the call.....surprise.

[urunobili]

Pop has to bring the starters again...

[Mal]

The question is how Pop can fuck this up with some dumb sub.

[Fireball]

what will Pop do now?

[Paranoid Pop]

Pop has to bring the starters again...

No.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

So what do you guys think, if the Mavs go back up 3-5 points, Pop puts back in Duncan/Parker?

[ElNono]

Time to rest Tiago, we have a game tomorrow...

[Spurs Brazil]

Now I'd like to see Tony back

[bbarry]

bad time out pop. now these guys are going to come back on with no energy... just watch.

mavs go up by 8 then pop throws the white flag.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Tony coming back is a must IMO

[shorttotry]

I love the comeback; but, unfortunately, this means more Bonner minutes in the future...

[ElNono]

I would close with Tony, Neal, Green, Tim and Tiago

[jag]

Time to rest Tiago, we have a game tomorrow...

:lol

[Paranoid Pop]

So what do you guys think, if the Mavs go back up 3-5 points, Pop puts back in Duncan/Parker?

No, Leonard maybe to get more rebounds.

[Quiet Strength]

bad time out pop. now these guys are going to come back on with no energy... just watch.

mavs go up by 8 then pop throws the white flag.

He's giving them rest. They're tired

[timmike2]

maybe slow the pace now? since were up by 2? or just let the starters in for a min then sub again to attack, attack and attack :D

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Tiago, Bonner, Green, Neal, Parker


FTW

[DPG21920]

Keep TP out!

[ElNono]

Ofcourse Matt is going to play the rest of the way...

[crc21209]

I would go with a line-up of Tony, Neal, Green, TD, and Splitter to finish the game....

[angelbelow]

So what do you guys think, if the Mavs go back up 3-5 points, Pop puts back in Duncan/Parker?

If the 3pt shooting begins to cool off I can see him subbing out Neal for Parker. Or maybe JA for Parker.

[Fireball]

Tony and Kawhi should come back for Neal and Anderson/Green ... don't know if Matty has enough gas for the remaining game

[ace3g]

Tiago with 2 monster putbacks!!!

[Cry Havoc]

Splitter is a man.

That was a man's dunk.

[InRareForm]

tiaGO

[jag]

Neal isn't fond of feeding Tiago the rock.

[shorttotry]

Splitter is a beast!

[ace3g]

Neal with it!!!

[Mal]

booo ya

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Fuck yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Neal 33333333333333333333333333

[bklynspursfan]

Lets go!!!

[crc21209]

Neal 333333333333333333333

[Libri]

My goodness, Neal again!!

[slick'81]

lol@mavs

[Fermixalot]

Neal with it!!!!! Ftm!!!!

[ElNono]

mother fucking neal

[Cry Havoc]

NEAL A THREE.

Are you kidding me!?!?!?!?!

I don't think I've ever seen anything like this in NBA history.

[DPG21920]

Gary Screal.

[jag]

Neal isn't fond of feeding Tiago the rock.

But he's a stone cold killer

[angelbelow]

Amazing!

[timvp]

Am I really awake? WTF ha happened?

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

This if fuckin ridiculous.

[Robz4000]

Oh My God...

[Spurs Brazil]

Neal 33333333333333333333333333

[tomtom]

Man this game is unbelievable

[timmike2]

woo neal with the dagger!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Maybe Anderson is the backup PG we need until TJ gets back? He looks competent with the ball.

[Fireball]

I knew Neal would take that shot and make it ... Spurs are back

[Muser]

Wow, the Spurs have jus exploded in the 4th.

[ElNono]

Time for Tim to retire, amnesty RJ and trade Tony :stirpot:

[urunobili]

oh mama!

[Juggity]

This is fuckin amazing. The exact opposite of the Heat game.

[timvp]

iwishthespurscouldhavefacedthemavslastyearinthepla yoffswithahealthymanu

[slick'81]

NEAL A THREE.

Are you kidding me!?!?!?!?!

I don't think I've ever seen anything like this in NBA history.


see kerr vs mavs in wcf

[InRareForm]

Bonner +12, Neal +17, Green +16, Splitter +16, Green +16, Anderson +25

:lol

[Spurs Brazil]

I'd put TP in for JA and let the other 4 there to close the game

[Osnofa]

epic comeback is epic. I was not expecting this from these road Spurs.:o

[Fireball]

and its nice that the whole nation can watch this ...

[pgardn]

Absolutely bizarre game.

[angelbelow]

Neal isn't fond of feeding Tiago the rock.

Might just be a lack of ability to make plays for others. In PnR situations he almost 100% puts up a contested floater.

[Proxy]

I love how the team managed to find energy without Manu having to do some ridiculous play. Kudos.

Go Splitter!

[Mal]

Man this game is unbelievable

A lot of same turnaround games whis season. Magic recently blew 27 pts. Mavs blew 17 or 19 pts. Nothing special :lol

[ElNono]

If anything, this dispells the notion that Pop has that Blair is the only player on the team that can guard Dirk..

[Splits]

NEAL A THREE.

Are you kidding me!?!?!?!?!

I don't think I've ever seen anything like this in NBA history.

Not in recent Spurs history. We've got 6 3s in the quarter and it's only half way over. Should be 7 with that BS Green one that splashed with the foul call on Mahimi.

[benefactor]

lol at the faggots that said Neal=RMJ

[Fireball]

wish I could listen to Bill and Sean right now

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Am I really awake? WTF ha happened?

We're all caught in an Improbability Field. :lmao

[crc21209]

i'd put tp in for ja and let the other 4 there to close the game

+1

[jag]

I don't even know who I want to see the offense run through.

Just put it up if you're feeling hot...?

[ace3g]

Am I really awake? WTF ha happened?

Mr. Anderson became self aware, it was inevitable

[timvp]

Come on, finish off this miracle.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

iwishthespurscouldhavefacedthemavslastyearinthepla yoffswithahealthymanu

dont we all

[loveforthegame]

Do we have enough left in the tank? Hope so.

[Libri]

loving this :elephant

[bklynspursfan]

If the Mavs tie it up starters will be back

[Fireball]

A lot of same turnaround games whis season. Magic recently blew 27 pts. Mavs blew 17 or 19 pts. Nothing special :lol

but the Spurs have not pulled one off yet ... hope we make it

[ElNono]

lol mavs

[Barfunk]

Wow, the Spurs have jus exploded in the 4th.

26-6 so far

[shorttotry]

and its nice that the whole nation can watch this ...

First nation wide game in a long time.... True dat:downspin:

[DPG21920]

Holy Neal.

[ace3g]

lol, Neal ruins a 2 on 1 break but gets the running bank shot

[InRareForm]

Neal steal and a ugly banker goes in! lol gotta love it

[Barfunk]

nice nice

[Proxy]

iwishthespurscouldhavefacedthemavslastyearinthepla yoffswithahealthymanu

Don't say that. I hate thinking how much better of a world this would be had the mavs had no ring, because the Spurs would for sure take them last year if at 100 percent health

[Fireball]

the timeouts of Carlisle help us

[slick'81]

neal and green are going nutz

[lcroock]

Keep Duncan and Parker on the pine. Don't f**ck with anything. All 5 guys are tearing it up right now - Bonner-Green-Splitter-James A-Neal

[MI21]

lol Neal

[DesignatedT]

wow splitter.

[pgardn]

Neal gets a gift steal, should have passed, banks it in from straight on...

Cant continue.

[MI21]

bankshot lol

[Proxy]

Bullshit moving screen by Dirk

[Cry Havoc]

Get Parker back in, right now.

[slick'81]

here come the mavs

[Cant_Be_Faded]

here come the mavs


splitter looked really slow on defense there

[Fermixalot]

Neal is gonna win this game for us.

[jag]

Tiago doesn't have the touch tonight. It's all Neal right now

[ace3g]

nice move by Splitter, just not the finish, but liked the idea

Neal with it again!!!

[shorttotry]

Please, please finish out this game.

[MI21]

Sucha good move from Splitter, gotta finish that

[Cry Havoc]

Fuck the Jet.

[jag]

Wtf

[simba80328]

Neal holy crap

[Mal]

Gary freakin Neal

[bklynspursfan]

I said Neal would get it going.... Lets go baby

[ElNono]

bawls

[Cry Havoc]

Neal >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> terry.

[ace3g]

Neal with it!!! that is the play I use to run

[shorttotry]

Neal with it!

[slick'81]

rotflmao neal is giving it to the mavs with no lube

[DesignatedT]

wow Neal.

[jag]

What is happening right now?

[Spurs Brazil]

Neal is a bad boy

[Libri]

Neal seems to be playing pretty good.


:lol

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Parker unhappy.

Big Balls Neal in the building. :D

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Pop going pragmatic by leaving Bench in the game

a win is necessary in this division this year

[Fireball]

Gary Neal found his appendix ... now hack a Haywood

[Darkwaters]

Gary Neal is just unconscious right now

[bklynspursfan]

No foul there?????? Omg wow

[maverick1948]

Hack-a-Haywood!!!

[jag]

Splitter can't buy a fucking foul

[ace3g]

wow looked like Splitter got murdered by Dirk there... still no respect

[bklynspursfan]

Splitter got fouled by Dirk

[ElNono]

that was a foul on tiago on offense

[Barfunk]

hell yea nice sell by TIAGO

[angelbelow]

Haha JA's inbound D is pretty good.

[Cry Havoc]

hahahha fuck you Dallas. You bitch about every call.

[Mal]

Now Pop can put some subs. Guys could get tired

[Cant_Be_Faded]

SPLITTER dont fucking cry about a call, run over to defense


division wins are CRUCIAL

[shorttotry]

I'm glad I picked up Tiago on my fantasy team!

[Libri]

Hold the fort!

[Quiet Strength]

Maybe time to get JA out

[loveforthegame]

I still can't believe this.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Let's go Spurs!!!!!!

[Juggity]

Somebody 10 or 15 pages ago wondered if Gary Neal would be the one to step up.

Yes.

[jag]

STFU Doris Burke

[Cry Havoc]

Somebody 10 or 15 pages ago wondered if Gary Neal would be the one to step up.

Yes.

Who hasn't stepped up?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

"even DUNCAN's got a little smirk going"

he's been smiling all quarter dumbasses

[Fireball]

TP doing the Tebow

[Spurs Brazil]

great job Tiago

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Splitter finally gets a call. He gets fouled all the time for no call.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Danny Green Block!!

[jag]

:lmao

[Crookshanks]

7 points ahead with less than 2 minutes to go - can the Spurs hold on? This will be a GREAT win if they do.

[Muser]

Holy shit Green!

[Libri]

Stuffed

[Cry Havoc]

OMG GREEN with a RIDICULOUS block.

[Fermixalot]

Danny Green just SHIT all over Roddy

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Theres Green's token clutch block of the game...

[ace3g]

Splitter doesn't have the touch, but he is playing good defense got some important rebounds

Green with the CD (learned that from LeBron)

[slick'81]

lol french puss

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Fuck 3 point play.....

[Mal]

Put Tony in. Team need him

[ElNono]

fuck Matt... don't foul

[loveforthegame]

Don't screw up now.

[DesignatedT]

that was not a foul.

[shorttotry]

[holds breath]

[slick'81]

bonner king of reaching in

[Fireball]

its not over yet

[crc21209]

:lol Matt didnt even touch him.......

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Shoulda hardfouled Roddy if you're bonner TBH


The hardfoul is a lost art


Thats why the spurs are soft now

[DesignatedT]

Put tony in for Anderson.

[jag]

It wouldn't be Spurs vs. Mavs if Jason Terry wasn't hitting clutch shots and running around acting like a retard.

[Quiet Strength]

Bullshit call

[Cry Havoc]

Refs keepin' it close in Dallas, as per the usual.

[slick'81]

:lol Matt didnt even touch him.......


he hacked the shit outta terry

[Spurs Brazil]

TP must be in the game now.

[crc21209]

The refs just gave the Mavs a free unearned point right there. And why? They didnt deserve that foul call at all.....
