Game Blog: Spurs @ Grizzlies - Feb. 6

[timtonymanu]

Green is exactly like Blair. Brings the goods and the bads at the same time.

[Osnofa]

looked like a charge and then a clean block but whatever.

[Ice009]

Danny Green another goal tending. FUCKING retard, and Pop pulls Splitter for Bonner.

FUCKING DUMB shit of a coach.

[Warlord23]

Danny Green with his customary goaltend ... has he completed his quota of dumb plays yet?

[Ice009]

Danny Green another goal tending. FUCKING retard, and Pop pulls Splitter for Bonner.

FUCKING DUMB shit of a coach.

[MannyIsGod]

Jesus Christ Danny Green has a low BB IQ.

[TDomination]

I know we're up only 1 and we may lose this game, but just seeing Tim and Tiago out there on the floor together gives me an air of confidence I havn't felt since 2007-08.

Pop took all the confidence away from me :(

[Uriel]

Its a good thing I don't have kids because this shit with Tiago makes me want to punch a baby.

:lmao

[024]

i sense a lot of anger in this thread

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

timmy took the risk twice and failed in both attempts

[DPG21920]

If Anderson nails that 2nd 3, pop is a genius

Not really. Just because you arrive at the right answer doesn't make you a genius. The move in context made little sense, even though JA made some decent plays.

But to out of no where, put JA in when he barely plays looks a little crazy IMO.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol Darkwaters going HAM on me, because I said Danny Green is a low-IQ player:lol..

[Spurs Brazil]

Green is exactly like Blair. Brings the goods and the bads at the same time.

More like the bad every time

[GSH]

Duncan screwed the pooch with that pass. The rest is just dominos falling.

[Robz4000]

Ball don't lie...

[Obstructed_View]

Yeah that block looked clean.

[DAF86]

We were so winning this game with TD and Splitter on the floor, now I don't know.

[ElNono]

Teeeemy

[024]

was that a goaltend???

[Robz4000]

Thank you Timmy!

[GSH]

And Green just stopped those automatic points on that fast break. Some of you have very selective memories.

[bklynspursfan]

Yes Timmy! way to flop Mayo lol

[loveforthegame]

Stupid turnovers.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Timmy and 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Barfunk]

Dunx

[jestersmash]

Tons of flopping going on in this game.

[TDomination]

mayo missed and it looked like he traveled

[DPG21920]

Great hustle by danny.

[Spurs Brazil]

TD and one!

[Libri]

haha

pathetic flop

[timtonymanu]

Goddamnit Neal.

YES TD!

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Add one more good play for Green.

AWESOME agility shown by Duncan to step through that guys legs for the and-1!!!!

[TDomination]

duncan is gaining my confidence again! GO TIMMY!!!

[Tp9gospursgo]

lol Mayo trying to flop.

[Invision]

Jesus the Grizzlies are terrible.

[Obstructed_View]

Um that's a fucking foul, by Mayo. Um, that's a fucking foul by Mayo too. Duncan going Scola on Mayo. Woot.

[mystargtr34]

:lol Mayo with 2 retarded plays in succession.

[loveforthegame]

Duncan carrying the team right now. He's doing a bit of everything.

[MannyIsGod]

Tony Parker Tim Duncan PNR. Nothing else. Don't let Green drive, don't let Neal PNR, and let me pretend Bonner is not in this game.

[GSH]

The Griz have made jumper after jumper. But I like our chances in the clutch. This is gonna be a W for the Spurs.

[Osnofa]

bad flop is bad, very bad.

[DPG21920]

Look, it's maybe not the smartest thing, but I usually don't give players grief over aggressive mistakes.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

GO
SPURS
GO

come on baby we got thissss

[Barfunk]

Duncan nearing 20-20

[bklynspursfan]

Basket and we win

[loveforthegame]

My nerves are shot.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

STUPID parker

we're in the bonus, attack you moron

[bklynspursfan]

Timmy... Signed, sealed, delivered!

[ElNono]

Danny with the goods

[DPG21920]

Terrible possession.

[Robz4000]

Green with 2 huge plays. Making up for that retarded goaltend.

[Libri]

Sons, that was beautiful execution.

[loveforthegame]

Duncan is the man!

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol Mayo playing for the Spurs..

Green is a good passer, it's a shame he doesn't make better decisions on a consistent basis..

[TDomination]

haha mayo is stupid, taking a horrible shot

[Obstructed_View]

Great. Fucking. Pass.

[024]

greeeennn

[Spurs Brazil]

Good pass Green

Yes TD!!

[MannyIsGod]

And Green just stopped those automatic points on that fast break. Some of you have very selective memories.

Congrats for Green for doing his fucking job and not being stupid. You don't get props for making the play you are supposed to make when its just an average play but you sure as hell are going to get shit - and rightfully so - when you do something incredibly stupid.

[DAF86]

Green is like a bad Manu imitator.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Add another great play for Green.

LOL Manny....DG musta been checking his phone for the game blog and heard you talking all that shit :lmao

[Barfunk]

Timmy with the Jam

[Osnofa]

thank you Mayo, please come again :lol

[timtonymanu]

Tim fucking Duncan!

[WeNeedLength]

Nice. Composure at the end of a road game. I fucking love it. :tu

[loveforthegame]

We got our bad play out early and now it's Memphis having a meltdown just when we needed it.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Timmy with a slap, punch, kick and a K.O.

[Warlord23]

Green gives you some great moments now and then, but he needs to get smarter overall.

[Obstructed_View]

:lol Mayo playing for the Spurs..

Green is a good passer, it's a shame he doesn't make better decisions on a consistent basis..

He's just struggling at the moment. Nice to see that he sticks with it and makes a good play.

[timtonymanu]

That's Danny Green. Bringing the bads and the goods.

[DPG21920]

Danny making plays. When you have him in with Neal, Bonner, Anderson, it's tough. Put him in the right role, he makes more good plays than bad. He's not a member of the big 3, he's supposed to have flaws, but he plays hard, has above average talent on both ends and makes aggressive mistakes. Have to live with the good and bad.

[007nites]

Timmy with 19 points, 16 rebounds, and 3 blocks

[MannyIsGod]

Thats the 3rd excellent pass by Green in the fourth on a PNR.

[Barfunk]

Green is like a bad Manu imitator.

lol

[024]

at least jefferson isn't in the game

[TDomination]

19 pts 16 Rebs for TIMMY!

[Obstructed_View]

Congrats for Green for doing his fucking job and not being stupid. You don't get props for making the play you are supposed to make when its just an average play but you sure as hell are going to get shit - and rightfully so - when you do something incredibly stupid.

Is it your birthday?

[bklynspursfan]

Wow....

[biskvito]

[Barfunk]

awww fucking lucky ass banked 3

[wildbill2u]

Up 6. We can win this with some good d

[Reck]

not worried.

Grizzlies ain't winning shit.

qft.

[Robz4000]

So much for defending the 3 point line...

[Obstructed_View]

lul banked.

[ElNono]

Conley feeling like MJ against us, no surprises there

[GSH]

Throw up that total crap and it goes in. That's okay. Clutch time belongs to the Spurs.

[Spurs Brazil]

Unbelievable

[WeNeedLength]

Banks in a three. What the shit?

[TDomination]

really...conley....bunch of crap

[mystargtr34]

Monkey face with the banked 3.

[007nites]

fuck that shit

[Uriel]

WTF was that.

[Ice009]

For fucks sake. Don't give up a fucking three. GEEZ.

[timtonymanu]

UGH Grizzlies and their fluke shots again.

[MannyIsGod]

Danny making plays. When you have him in with Neal, Bonner, Anderson, it's tough. Put him in the right role, he makes more good plays than bad. He's not a member of the big 3, he's supposed to have flaws, but he plays hard, has above average talent on both ends and makes aggressive mistakes. Have to live with the good and bad.

This is fair - and honestly its more on Pop not to put him in positions where you'd normally put Manu with the 2nd unit - but some of his mistakes drive me up the wall.

Danny's got some tools and he's made a lot of progress but I just want smarter play from him.

[Libri]

fluke 3

[Sense]

Going inside gets the job done... again, Pop has to take note that he can't rely on 3's that much.. I mean wtf are we doing giving it to Anderson for? I don't care if he's open, he has been horrible.
I'm glad Duncan and Splitter went in there in time to stop the bleeding, and Duncan coming up big in the 4th.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I was just about to say Mike Conley looks gassed.....I guess that doesn't stop him from banking in a huge garbage desperation 3.

But he is gassed, that was a prayer and Tony played it good enough. Just have to play smart basketball and the win is ours.

[DPG21920]

Bank shot. If anyone should be getting crap for this game it's TP, not DG IMO. TP went into chucker mode, couldn't hit anything and turned his aggression level to "RJ".

[timtonymanu]

Monkey face with the banked 3.

More like rat face. I hate that guy.

[Russo21]

Man i love Duncan throwback games :-)

[bklynspursfan]

Green!!!!! WTF

[Texas_Ranger]

fuck green

[bklynspursfan]

Man i love Duncan throwback games :-)

I like it even better when it results in a W

[Spurs Brazil]

Green can't finish at the rim

[ElNono]

Green giveth, Green taketh away

[Ice009]

Green fails again. GEEZ.

[Obstructed_View]

This is fair - and honestly its more on Pop not to put him in positions where you'd normally put Manu with the 2nd unit - but some of his mistakes drive me up the wall.

Danny's got some tools and he's made a lot of progress but I just want smarter play from him.

Like drawing a foul instead of throwing the layup twelve feet over the basket.

[DPG21920]

Danny has to finish that. Come on.

[TDomination]

who's ball, im watching on crappy stream. can't tell?

[024]

green made a perfect run in and blows the layup??

[MannyIsGod]

Either Green misses it badly or he gets blocked. Should have stopped and mixed in a fake.

[Russo21]

True

[Cant_Be_Faded]

This is fair - and honestly its more on Pop not to put him in positions where you'd normally put Manu with the 2nd unit - but some of his mistakes drive me up the wall.

Danny's got some tools and he's made a lot of progress but I just want smarter play from him.

It's his first season of his life getting solid NBA minutes. He's like a mini-manu, but more raw and rough around the edges.

I don't mind seeing him make mistakes, cuz I have faith that a player in the NC-mold is going to be smart enough to eventually learn from them and get better.

[timtonymanu]

The goods and the bads.

[Spurs Brazil]

Run that play for a TD bank

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol I rarely disagree with DPG, but Danny Green is not an above average player on the defensive end..he's average, at best, if you factor in consistency..

Offensively, he's a good passer and a good(albeit streaky) shooter, but he makes bad decisions and occasionally turns into a chucker..

[Robz4000]

WOW, lame

[MannyIsGod]

Wow thats a terrrible fucking call.

[MI21]

Why the play call at end of games is to bring Duncan high, letting his man trap Parker and force shit shots I do not know.. it hasn't fucking worked the whole season.

WHY

[WeNeedLength]

Memphis ball. Fuck.

[DAF86]

WTF? That was clearly Spurs ball.

[Obstructed_View]

Play defense, bitches.

[Libri]

Wtf?!

[Robz4000]

lol refball in full effect

[Aiko9245]

Terrible overturn

[bklynspursfan]

Wow

[007nites]

Should have been a loose ball foul on grizzlies

[mystargtr34]

LMAO... if thats not Spurs ball how is it not a foul?

[bklynspursfan]

Foul on duncan?????

[GSH]

That is the worst fucking call of the season!!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Bullshit

[Obstructed_View]

What?

[Spurs Brazil]

OMG

Shit

[resistanze]

:lmao Terrible call wow

[WeNeedLength]

Refs fucking us over. Foul on Timmy??????

[Cant_Be_Faded]

holy crap what a fluke


ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

[Warlord23]

WTF kind of call was that?

[MannyIsGod]

Wow thats another terrible fucking call. Where is Tim supposed to go with his arms when Rudy is in his chest.

[024]

wtf kind of call was that

[007nites]

Flopppppppppppppppppp

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Good shit DUNCAN!!!

[Barfunk]

Duncan going 2003 tonight

[mystargtr34]

These refs are blatantly home cooking the shit out of this :lol

[MI21]

That's the worst call I've ever seen.

[TDomination]

hmm...was that a make up call. bad call on duncan

[Robz4000]

TD getting fucked over twice

[bklynspursfan]

Timmy saving us

[Russo21]

timmeh!

[Obstructed_View]

Duncan is a fucking man.

[Texas_Ranger]

lol bonner

[Rummpd]

Bs bs bs bs

[Spurs Brazil]

Tim Duncan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WeNeedLength]

Timmy with the sick nasty D!!?>?!?!?!

[DPG21920]

Duncan making a great play.

[Aiko9245]

defending a lead = bonner?

[Warlord23]

Timmy with some monster D

[resistanze]

Duncan BEASTING.

[Paranoid Pop]

Bonner is still out there.

[mystargtr34]

Tim... dat defense.

[Russo21]

4 blocks motherfuckers. take that gasol. dont be trying to dunk on timmeh

[Cant_Be_Faded]

omgomgomgomgzzzzzzz

what a great defensive stand

DUUUUNCAN! GOOD EFFORT neal!

[timtonymanu]

Duncan having a monster game, no matter what.

[Obstructed_View]

The play was really made by bonner. LOL

[MannyIsGod]

:lmao @ the sequence of events that has led to this in the past minute. Those are 2 of the worst calls I've seen in a LONG time.

[Libri]

That is the worst fucking call of the season!!

:lol It's laughable.

[TDomination]

duncan, beautiful block!!

[HarlemHeat37]

Duncan's defense has been outstanding, all game..

His performance, these last few weeks, have been a relief of my concerns, tbh..

[bklynspursfan]

Let's get ready to hold our breath for our FT shooters

[ElNono]

:wow Duncan's block

[timtonymanu]

Play the defense of your life, damnit. Because Griz are hitting all their fluke shots.

[Spursfan092120]

Can they try any harder to give Memphis this game?

[Obstructed_View]

How did Neal end up in the jump circle??

[WeNeedLength]

Grizzlies have had the ball for like 90 seconds and with 5 shots at the basket... wtf...

[Fermixalot]

Guard the 3, don't foul. Don't waste Tim's monster defense at the end.

[Bill_Brasky]

First, Duncan was fouled coming down with the board on the play that got reversed. Then he's called for a foul on the other end for coming down with a rebound.

FUCK this officiating right now.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

You've gotta be fucking kidding me. That was incidental contact! Painful, sure, but Tim has to be aloud to bring his arms down.

How many of the refs want to rob us in the final minute this year? I think I've seen 10 or 12 atrocious calls against us in the final minute this year. :pctoss

[mexicanjunior]

These refs are doing everything possible to give Memphis this game...fucking horrendous calls.

[Osnofa]

Okay, they'll probably hit a 3 but we'll still have some seconds left. Duncan will nail the buzzer and rodeo trip starts 1-0.

[Obstructed_View]

OH, I know why Timmy's playing so well. Y'all ready for this?

[TDomination]

Bonner is still out there.

He actually has made some good rotations and did really well on Gasol which allowed Duncan to block him.

Still wish splitter was out there :(

[Warlord23]

They've already hit 3s to end the 2nd and 3rd quarters ... please get Splitter and Leonard in there and defend this shit

[urunobili]

damn it

[MannyIsGod]

LOL Bonner in for defense.

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

[mystargtr34]

Bonner still out there for defensive purposes :lol

[simba80328]

If the grizzlies win, I will buy a little bear cub, name it Rudy Gay, raise it then slaughter it

[MI21]

Grizz will make a 3, or get a foul call on shooting a 3...

[DPG21920]

:lol I rarely disagree with DPG, but Danny Green is not an above average player on the defensive end..he's average, at best, if you factor in consistency..

Offensively, he's a good passer and a good(albeit streaky) shooter, but he makes bad decisions and occasionally turns into a chucker..

I won't disagree with the defense, I think he's slightly above average, but I won't argue average due to his inconsistency sometimes.

He handles the ball well, is a good passer, can hit the three & get to the rim (he struggles to finish though when he's isn't aggressive) and I really don't think he's a chucker (I think it's symptom of the situation and who he's on the floor with when he's asked to be the primary creator).

[Barfunk]

Did Pop and the refs drink together before the game?

[MannyIsGod]

Spurs need a stop. Pop keeps Bonner in.

:lmao :lmao :lmao

[Robz4000]

This should be Spurs ball, but they'll give it back to the Grizz...

[HarlemHeat37]

Honestly, even considering his current age and status, I've never seen a HOF player get disrespected as much as Duncan has, these last two seasons..

[MannyIsGod]

Spurs need a stop. Pop keeps Bonner in.

:lmao :lmao :lmao

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

fucking replays lead to a free timeout for the griz

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

How many chances are the refs going to gift to the Grizz? This is BS.

Conley banked the last 3, now watch OJ do the same. :rolleyes

[Brazil]

what a weird finish

[slick'81]

lol bonner being in late again v memphis

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I won't disagree with the defense, I think he's slightly above average, but I won't argue average due to his inconsistency sometimes.

He handles the ball well, is a good passer, can hit the three & get to the rim (he struggles to finish though when he's isn't aggressive) and I really don't think he's a chucker (I think it's symptom of the situation and who he's on the floor with when he's asked to be the primary creator).

+1
I think he's slightly above average too. However the Spurs defensive stats show that he aint much better than what we were throwing out there last year.

[Robz4000]

lol airball

[ElNono]

lol Gay

[Texas_Ranger]

are you sure refs that wasn't a foul???

[Mal]

lmao

[urunobili]

hate the GRizz TBH

[Obstructed_View]

Good defense by Matt Bonner at the three point line. Give the boy credit.

[024]

refs reviewed the play to give the grizzlies a free timeout.

[resistanze]

Gay with the bads.

[WeNeedLength]

All of this for a fucking airball????

:lmao
:lmao

[TDomination]

Honestly, even considering his current age and status, I've never seen a HOF player get disrespected as much as Duncan has, these last two seasons..

By Spurs fans? I agree

[DPG21920]

Well defended, boys.

[ElNono]

Spurs need a stop. Pop keeps Bonner in.

:lmao :lmao :lmao

:rollin

[Cant_Be_Faded]

phew.....

Spurs just need 1 FT and the day is ours

[Barfunk]

buzzed reffing is drunk reffing

[007nites]

Bonner with the D!

[MI21]

Ball don't lie fuckers.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Timmy turning black the clock tonight. 19 points, 17 boards, 4 blocks.

[cheguevara]

GaYo with the chokejob

[Osnofa]

Kobe-esque, nice Gay.

[ElNono]

well, make the freethrows and fly to philly

[Russo21]

why is tiago on the bench in crunchtime when we're trying to defend a 3 point lead hmm

[MannyIsGod]

The first person that tries to give Matt Bonner credit for Rudy Gay's shit shot deserves a bunch to the nuts.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Honestly, even considering his current age and status, I've never seen a HOF player get disrespected as much as Duncan has, these last two seasons..

Try the past 5 seasons. Timmy hasn't gotten any respect since 2007.

[GSH]

Spurs need a stop. Pop keeps Bonner in.

:lmao :lmao :lmao


Right on cue, Bonner makes the good contest on that shot. :rollin

[Bill_Brasky]

I fully expected that 3 to fall......WHEW.

[MI21]

Fantastic defense by Green and Bonner and Splitter there.

[Robz4000]

Bonner has been playing hard lately. That's all I ask.

[Libri]

Well defended, boys.

Including Bonner? :wow

[HarlemHeat37]

Opposing fans mocked us when we said that we wished the Grizz would have had Rudy Gay during last year's series:lol..

[ElNono]

Didn't even notice Tiago out there

[Spursfan092120]

Ref's played hard, my man.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Is there any question still about the Memphis Grizzlies being better with Randolph and no Gay, over Randolph AND Gay, much less Gay no Randolph?

Randolph >>>> Gay

If I'm memphis GM, I'm looking to trade Gay for some picks (hopefully not to the fucking Lakers)

[Paranoid Pop]

Timmy turning black the clock tonight. 19 points, 17 boards, 4 blocks.

Wow :wow.

[timtonymanu]

Z-Bo would have hit that 3

[Robz4000]

Dagger

[Sense]

Great defense.... loved that they went back inside in the offense, I'm happy.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

The first person that tries to give Matt Bonner credit for Rudy Gay's shit shot deserves a bunch to the nuts.

croflrofl

:toast

[WeNeedLength]

Green just make ONE.

[Paranoid Pop]

Why did we go for Green again?

[ElNono]

We win!

[Uriel]

Game over. We win.

[Libri]

:downspin:

[Robz4000]

TD was the hero tonight

[loveforthegame]

Pop loves Green at the end of games doesn't he? Hope that pays off at some point.

[WeNeedLength]

Solid win.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Wow, big win.

[Reck]

Never in doubt.

Grizzlies last year was some kind glitch. We lost confidence and they took the advantage.

Its time we put these fucks in their place.

[MannyIsGod]

All Rudy Gay had to do was raise an eyebrow, wait, watch Bonner bite on the fake, shoot. Instead he makes Bonner look like All NBA Defensive first team.

I guess its not Matt's fault Rudy Gay is a moron. Good D, Matt.

[urunobili]

TD recruiting Gasol at the end... loved the sight...

[Spurs Brazil]

Win!!!!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Mayo couldn't make shit the 4th quarter :lol

[TDomination]

1-0

Tougher than it should've been but we got the W
