Gary Neal will start for Danny Green tonight. Per Pop, it's a way to get Neal more minutes heading toward playoff rotation.

Tony Parker "a little dinged up," according to Pop. Left wrist, right calf. Parker will play through it, as he has been.

24writer

RT @Monroe_SA: Tyson Chandler (left ham), Jare jeffries (rt. Knee) both out for Knicks vs. #Spurs

[Reck]

This should be an easy W.

Knicks will go small ball the entire game without Tyson or Jeffries.

[Arcadian]

Facing Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire is never an "easy win"...I expect a challenging win.

[Dex]

Hopefully Neal getting the nod over Green will help get the team off to a better start. Been frustrating to watch them start games out of sync offensively and immediately getting themselves into a hole. It's been a bad habit all season; starters get in a funk, and then the bench comes in and digs them out of it. Would really like to see them come out early and jump on the Knicks early.

Another good byproduct of this shuffle is that it guarantees TJ Ford the minutes at backup point guard, which I think will be necessary going forward.

[timvp]

Jefferson and Neal suck too much on defense to start together :td

[Robz4000]

It's looking like Pop is banishing all notion of defense this game, counting on the Knick's lack of inside presence to make the offense enough. Makes me feel queasy.

[pgardn]

Their other guys can play some D. At least they were while the Knicks were on their win streak. But I never trust a Mikey D team to play D the whole game.

And Bonner on Amare for any amount of time kinda makes me sick.

[maverick1948]

My cute neighbor Sarah

[DMC]

Who else thinks the Knicks will have a record shooting night?

[Dex]

My cute neighbor Sarah

:bang Thanks, because seeing this commercial 6000 times during every broadcast wasn't quite giving us our fill.

[maverick1948]

LOL I know

[maverick1948]

How about "Gino-sanity"?

[ElNono]

Go Spurs Go! :flag:

[foodie2]

:bang Thanks, because seeing this commercial 6000 times during every broadcast wasn't quite giving us our fill.

That one and the jury room one make me want to scream.

[GSH]

Get ready for another hostile home crowd. My wife and daughter are at the game tonight. Wife just texted and said that the crowd looks to be 15-20% Asian. Add in the non-Asian Lin bandwagoners, and it's going to be like the Chicago game. Hopefully the Spurs fans will bring it, but when that much of the crowd is cheering for the other team, it's not going to be like it should be at a home game.

[Fireball]

finally catching a game live again ... last time it was the Portöland game ... don't disappoint me Spurs !!

:flag: :flag: :flag:

[GSH]

Who else thinks the Knicks will have a record shooting night?

Well you just know that SOMEBODY is going to have a career night. So far this year, the Spurs have had the ability to make All-Stars out of some pretty unlikely players.

[loveforthegame]

Looking forward to the Melo/Jefferson match up. Good times there.

[bklynspursfan]

Really thought Leonard would start vs Melo. Did not expect Neal in there

[Dex]

Well you just know that SOMEBODY is going to have a career night. So far this year, the Spurs have had the ability to make All-Stars out of some pretty unlikely players.

Novak goes for 30, meltdown crashes SpursTalk servers?

[GSH]

Hmmm... hows about not letting them score the first dozen unanswered points?

[GSH]

Novak goes for 30, meltdown crashes SpursTalk servers?

Oh man, I hadn't even thought about that. Yeah, it would be epic.

[DPG21920]

Neal's shot outside of crunch time has not been very good this year. It looks way off during the flow of a normal game. He still hits clutch ones though.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Shut down Lin you shut down the Knicks. Linsanity. :lol

[DPG21920]

Amazing move by Tim, just needed the finish.

[loveforthegame]

Nice start Spurs. :td

[Dex]

0/3, 2 turnovers.....so much for that good start.

[timtonymanu]

CROFL can't hit shit

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Ugly start for both teams.

[lefty]

Lot of NYK fans in the arena

[Paranoid Pop]

Carmelo is reading to go off.

[Sense]

Wtf? Again with the Away home crowd? Are you kidding me San Antonio?

[lefty]

Duncan destroyed Sean

[timtonymanu]

:lol Love Sean and Timmy

[Fireball]

these slow starts make me sick ...

[bklynspursfan]

Wtf? Again with the Away home crowd? Are you kidding me San Antonio?

Might have to do with SA not playing in NY this year. Same with the Bulls. Our only games vs them our at our house.

[Reck]

Doesn't matter who you put on the lineup. This team is so lazy to start. For fuck's sake.

[DPG21920]

With no Chandler, TP/Manu should live at the rim.

[loveforthegame]

The slow starts are so depressing. :depressed

[bklynspursfan]

Melo hitting his first couple shots... Ugh.

[DPG21920]

Spurs aren't playing crisply, but they look much more energetic. Love how Tim and Blair are playing with movement.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Richard Jefferson is so worthless on defense its making me sick

[DPG21920]

:wow TP

[Dex]

Oh yay, it's the Budweiser commercial again!

[Reck]

Gotta love Lin.

His TOs will secure us the win. :lol

[Fireball]

TP spin move ... did not work against the Nugs

[timtonymanu]

Nice move, TP.

Jefferson getting torched like always. Why he's still in the starting lineup I won't understand.

[loveforthegame]

Richard Jefferson is so worthless on defense its making me sick

He actually makes me miss Finley. At least he tried. RJ not so much. I've never wanted a player gone from the team so bad before.

*And no I don't want Finley back.

[GSH]

Wtf? Again with the Away home crowd? Are you kidding me San Antonio?


Get ready for another hostile home crowd. My wife and daughter are at the game tonight. Wife just texted and said that the crowd looks to be 15-20% Asian. Add in the non-Asian Lin bandwagoners, and it's going to be like the Chicago game. Hopefully the Spurs fans will bring it, but when that much of the crowd is cheering for the other team, it's not going to be like it should be at a home game.

[ElNono]

Can't watch the game :depressed

Listening to audio

[DPG21920]

Jeremy Lin-Splitter? Dude is falling all over the place today.

[Death In June]

Will RJ ever shoot anything other than the three again?

[loveforthegame]

Jefferson is even useless on offense. Why Pop is still starting him is beyond me.

[GSH]

Heh... guard that Jeremy!

[Cant_Be_Faded]

RJ has almost stolen like 3 Lin passes, if Leonard were out there, he would have got fast break opportunities on those passes

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I really look forward to Amare-Timmy matchups. It's like the little ugly bastard stepbrother that could kick your ass but you took a baseball bat to his face a long time ago and he never really challenged your supremacy ever again

[bklynspursfan]

Timmy's eyes still light up when Amare is guarding him lol

[Sense]

Can't watch the game :depressed

Listening to audio

why? stream?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Leonard is in I saiddddddddd :downspin: :downspin: :downspin: :downspin:

[spurspokesman]

This should be an easy W.

Knicks will go small ball the entire game without Tyson or Jeffries.

Spurs still can lose if they play soft. Very possible.

[Capt Bringdown]

Smart to take it right to Amare

[DPG21920]

Why did Matt just run the ball all the way to Tim? :lol

[DPG21920]

Spurs are really off on 3's right now. Bonner's looked good, but Neal was way off. Going to need a few to keep the pace.

[Dex]

Ginobili not even touching the ball on offense?

[Paranoid Pop]

We can't make a 3.

[Capt Bringdown]

Why did Matt just run the ball all the way to Tim? :lol

Because Bonner is a spazz

[Fireball]

2/5 from 3 would be enough to blow this thing open ... not good seeing Melo hitting all his shots

[Reck]

Melo usually sucks balls but brings it on for this game. Figures..

[lefty]

Knicks fan clobbered by Coyote :rollin

[pgardn]

No Chandler, no D.

They cannot cover Duncan. And they are not double teaming him yet.

[ace3g]

nice pass from Manu to Splitter!!

[DPG21920]

What a freaking pass, Manu :tu

Also, Manu looks thin as hell to me.

[ElNono]

why? stream?

It's complicated. Blacked out in the valley, Dish doesn't carry MSG in NJ and don't have Internet on the laptop

[loveforthegame]

How good is it to have Ginobli back?

[Capt Bringdown]

Easy baskets - gotta love it

[DAF86]

Spurs score 28 in a quarter without a three.

[Fireball]

I really like TPs passing skills ... but Manu looks so natural with these passes its unreal

[Reck]

We need to start hitting our 3s.

Leonard looked superb.

Too bad he hit his minutes quota for the night. smh

[ElNono]

lol SSOL

[Capt Bringdown]

Splitter with the dawghouse sloppy pass

[Paranoid Pop]

That finish by Kahwi was pretty awesome, when he's on the court it really feels like this team is different.

[Fireball]

how did Washington take the lead against the Lakers? weren't they down by 20?

[bklynspursfan]

Novak............. SMH

[bklynspursfan]

how did Washington take the lead against the Lakers? weren't they down by 20?

Lmao yep. Kobe has like 26 shot attempts. No1 else has more than 8

[WeNeedLength]

Sloppy as fuck to start the 2nd...

[Sense]

Notice Novak on the floor, we should take advantage of that... *looks at his match up*... Bonner. -_-

[Paranoid Pop]

Sloppy D, Pop put RJ back in......

[timtonymanu]

Ugh that defensive possession pissed me off.

[Reck]

Wow watching Splitter is maddening.

[Paranoid Pop]

Sloppy D, Pop puts RJ back in......

[timtonymanu]

Tiago looks really bad. Fuck that injury.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

IMO, Steve Novak as a 4th big >>>>> Spurs 4th big (which is JACK SHIT)


Him hitting his 3's like this is exactly what Pop wants isnt it???

Makes no sense

[Dex]

That's a Manu tres!

[Reck]

Stop passing the ball to Tiago.

Guy cant do shit right.

[Fireball]

Tiago is rushing it too much

[Capt Bringdown]

Splitter looking awful tonight

[DPG21920]

Manu is busting his butt on defense.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

What if Tiago's earlier stint of good play is like James Anderson's stint of good play prior to his broken foot? :(

[DPG21920]

I am shocked DG is out of the rotation. I don't get it. The reason they didn't pick up Anderson's option was because they are high on him. He's one of the most consistent energy guys, a solid defender and hit's 3's which is the Spurs wing player trifecta.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

So good to have Manu back. :D

[DPG21920]

What if Tiago's earlier stint of good play is like James Anderson's stint of good play prior to his broken foot? :(

Tiago still has many good moments.

[bklynspursfan]

Manu looks really active. I'm so scared he gets hurt again lol

[Sense]

I am shocked DG is out of the rotation. I don't get it. The reason they didn't pick up Anderson's option was because they are high on him. He's one of the most consistent energy guys, a solid defender and hit's 3's which is the Spurs wing player trifecta.

Who?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Tiago still has many good moments.

rawfull, yea i know was just trying out my dpg trolling skillz

[spurspokesman]

We need to start hitting our 3s.

Leonard looked superb.

Too bad he hit his minutes quota for the night. smh

Spurs look game for a loss. RJ sucksM Ford looking like trash and Bonner is useless. These guys are horrible. Thank god for big 3 and a few others.

[Fireball]

What if Tiago's earlier stint of good play is like James Anderson's stint of good play prior to his broken foot? :(

that is bullshit ... he just rushes things ... seems to be excited with Manu on the court ... and I really mean that

[timtonymanu]

Bruuuuuuce!

[Capt Bringdown]

What if Tiago's earlier stint of good play is like James Anderson's stint of good play prior to his broken foot? :(

Or he's simply having a poor showing tonight. Splitter has already proven his reliability.
He just needs to settle down and he'll be fine.

[bklynspursfan]

Great look from Splitter!

[Reck]

Holy shit what is this lineup???????

[timtonymanu]

Anderson can board. It's too bad the rest of his game sucks though.

[DPG21920]

Shit, TJ hurt?

[Reck]

Bunch of D-leaguers. WOWW

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Okay I have completely given up on trying to understand what Pop's trying to do with his lineups tonight

[ace3g]

TJ Ford down again...

[Sense]

Jesus grab the ball

[Capt Bringdown]

You gotta like Splitter's ability to shake off some bad plays.

[DAF86]

RJ with a men's board.

[GSH]

I am shocked DG is out of the rotation. I don't get it. The reason they didn't pick up Anderson's option was because they are high on him. He's one of the most consistent energy guys, a solid defender and hit's 3's which is the Spurs wing player trifecta.

I was one of his biggest fans, but he has definitely fallen off. More than that in the last few games. I don't know if it's the shoulder injury, but he has been really bad since then.

[DPG21920]

Damn, this sucks. Hope he is ok. He's not moving much.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Uh oh

[Sense]

I don't mind Ford being hurt tbh... Davis knocked his ass down :lol

[Fireball]

hot potato

[bklynspursfan]

dam..........

[Paranoid Pop]

Splitter killed Ford :(.

[Bill_Brasky]

The fact that all of that happened purely because our guys couldn't get their hands firmly on a rebound is FUCKING INFURIATING.

[baseline bum]

Scary sight with TJ's history.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Has someone oiled up the ball? No-one can hold onto it today.

[Spurtacus]

Seems like that hit sent a shock to his spine and neck. Ford has a history with the neck/spine injuries. I hope he's okay.

[Sense]

Splitter killed Ford :(.

? Pretty sure Splitter didn't do anything to him, it was Baron Davis that knocked him down hard.

[Paranoid Pop]

Could be worse tho, could have been TP stepping on Manu, there would have been a riot.

[Reck]

TJ is done.

[Capt Bringdown]

That looks bad

[timtonymanu]

So many butterfingers led to TJ's injury. Such bullshit.

[Bill_Brasky]

I don't usually get mad at bball games but I'm fucking hot with rage that TJ just got injured in that retarded ass manner.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Poor TJ. Guy can't catch a break. I've been really impressed with him as a Spur.

[SpursRock20]

Damnit Baron!

[Reck]

Baron is a thug.

[Paranoid Pop]

? Pretty sure Splitter didn't do anything to him, it was Baron Davis that knocked him down hard.

My bad, listening to the NY commentators.

[bklynspursfan]

Whiplash

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Is it really cold in the arena? That's another possible reason both sides are continually dropping the ball.

[arles]

He's too still.
This looks bad :(

[ace3g]

hope it isn't anything related to his Milwaukee injury

[jestersmash]

Terrible to see Ford go down with another injury, but on the bright side (I'm always the optimist) this will give Manu more touches with the second unit (which he sorely needs to get back into rhythm).

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Looks like some sort of acute nerve injury

Dude.....he might be done

[Fpoonsie]

Guys send shots like that on opposing players who're trying to block out all the time. Just basketball.

Looks like Baron, immediately after the fact, realized who it was he just did it to.

[bklynspursfan]

Im worried for TJ. EVen more worried about Corey Joseph getting called up again

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

He doesn't want the wheelchair because he probably can't bend. Tough guy. Hope that doesn't end his career. :depressed

[timtonymanu]

Damn. Looks like TJ's done for the year. Terrible thing to happen.

[DPG21920]

I really hope TJ is ok. He had a great attitude and was buying into what the Spurs were doing. If he's hurt badly that changes things a lot as far as a rotation goes.

[Kori Ellis]

Scary sight with TJ's history.

Yeah, that's what really scary. Hopefully he'll be okay.

[Tp9gospursgo]

What exactly happened? I missed it, just saw him being helped off the court.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I can't blame Baron Davis, that really wasn't dirty, or overly rough or anything

With TJ Ford that fragile, something like this was bound to happen.

Wish him the best....get better TJ

[Capt Bringdown]

The doctors wouldn't have chanced having him walk off the court if they thought it was anything spinal cord related...right?

[lmbebo]

he was able to walk, always a good sign. Don't know about any parathesias though.

[Sense]

:lol Lin is so overrated.

[lmbebo]

The doctors wouldn't have chanced having him walk off the court if they thought it was anything spinal cord related...right?

If they did, they would have put a C-collar on him and carted him out.

[Capt Bringdown]

Neal-sanity

[DPG21920]

RJ defended Melo well there. Anderson brings a constant energy and focus on the glass when he's in and it's helpful.

[Death In June]

Don't know how they missed Duncan being held

[Spurtacus]

What exactly happened? I missed it, just saw him being helped off the court.

He took a shot to the back from Baron Davis.

[Dex]

Damn, this really sucks. I just want the half to be over so we can get a status on TJ.

[bklynspursfan]

Melo getting frustrated

[Reck]

Lin is on total lockdown.

TP too strong.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Lakers just lost to washington :lol

[Fireball]

Lakers just lost to washington :lol

:toast

[DAF86]

RJ with some big boards today, if only he brought that everygame plus his three point shooting he would be serviciable.

[Fireball]

and the Clips trail in New Jersey ...

[timtonymanu]

Lakers just lost to washington :lol

Holy shit. Last time I saw they were up 14. CROFL did Kobe chuck them out of a win again?

[Reck]

Timmy is getting foul every time.

Where are the calls?

[bklynspursfan]

TP living in the paint

[DPG21920]

Houston lost, Lakers lost, Clippers and OKC both losing :tu

[timtonymanu]

Lakers just lost to washington :lol

CROFL Kobe 9-30.

[bklynspursfan]

Holy shit. Last time I saw they were up 14. CROFL did Kobe chuck them out of a win again?

Lakers were up 21. Kobe 9-31 LMAO next highest FGA is Gasol with 11

[Sense]

Jefferson is doing a great defensive job on Anthony... don't look now.. he's +15, best in the team atm.

[ace3g]

k, Pop, get everyone out of the game now, after that from Parker

[GSH]

I couldn't tell how low on the back TJ got hit. That could have been a kidney shot. That's a fucking paralyzing blow if you get hit hard. He was kicking his legs, and moving his arms. He may be in the locker peeing blood right about now. I hate to say it, but I hope so. He'll come back soon enough from that.

[DPG21920]

:wow Manu

[Reck]

Knicks getting schooled.

[Barfunk]

They need to get Ginobili involved more.....

[Fireball]

Amare is so bad on D ... compare him with Noah ... this guy can defend guards in such a situation

[Reck]

Game.

[Dex]

Game.

:lol It's not even halftime yet...

[SpursRock20]

Wow! Knicks look like zombies out there. Lin is the only one playing with heart.

[Fireball]

finally this game goes in the right direction ...

[timtonymanu]

Good to see the Spurs keeping up the energy and actually building on it despite TJ's injury.

[Reck]

:lol It's not even halftime yet...

I saw into the future and saw greatness. :lol

Seriously though. If the Spurs managed to lose this game after such first half I dont know what I'm gonna do.

[timtonymanu]

TP is scaring me with all these falls.

[DAF86]

Hahahahahahahahaha

[Reck]

This game is fucking fun to watch.

[Dex]

Credit to the guys for keeping their head in the game after TJ went down.

[bklynspursfan]

Parker has played great.

[Barfunk]

hahah Manu hell yea

[Fermixalot]

TP is scaring me with all these falls.

He's tough as nails, but man I'd prefer him to be sitting right now...

[Fireball]

wow ... Tony to Manu !!!

[SpursRock20]

Parker and Gino just went Harlem Globetrotters on the Knicks! Great way to end the half!

[timtonymanu]

God I missed seeing Tony and Manu play together.

[Sense]

Guess whos D'Antoni's dad?

[Mal]

Mike No`D at his best

[DAF86]

:wow TP with 23. I knew he was tearing it up but Damn!

[jestersmash]

They need to get Ginobili involved more.....

Again, hate to see TJ go down but I think this will be a blessing in disguise for Ginobili.

With Tony playing as well as he is right now, it doesn't make sense for Manu to take touches away from Tony.

Manu should be taking touches away from Gary Neal's faux point guard schtick (Neal will happily defer here) and T.J. Ford.

T.J.'s not really a spot up shooter. He doesn't really have a consistent 3 point shot. He doesn't score off the ball like Leonard can. He needs the ball in his hands to be effective, but at the same time, we have to get Manu back into rhythm.

Having T.J. and Manu out on the floor (with Tony off) makes absolutely no sense. Sure, you can have T.J. handle the ball and facilitate (and have Manu sit outside shooting 3s off of T.J.'s penetration) but why the hell would we want to do that :lol. We'd be skimping on Ginobili's full potential.

[Reck]

He's tough as nails, but man I'd prefer him to be sitting right now...

Sitting really?

When he went to the bench along with Duncan earlier, the played horrible. Couldn't even get a handle on the ball.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

They need to get Ginobili involved more.....

All due respect, Ginobili doesn't get involved, he involves others lol

[pgardn]

This NY team must have Tyson Chandler.

I would seriously consider slamming a pie into my face if I was a NY fan and had to watch this type of D.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Everyone with a clue knows Lin can't go left and turns the ball over a lot. We've played to his weaknesses and he's had no impact on the game. :tu

[Tp9gospursgo]

TJ suffered a stinger.

[foodie2]

he was able to walk, always a good sign. Don't know about any parathesias though.


TJ suffered a stinger.

No neurological damage per McDonald.

[Fireball]

TJ suffered a stinger.

thats not so bad ...

[Fireball]

PHX leading OKC .... might be a very good night for the Spurs

[jestersmash]

T.J. Ford's role right now is to act as a back up point guard for Tony if Tony goes down with an injury.

He had a role as the primary ball handler for the second unit when Manu was injured, but with Manu back, I really do not see how T.J. Ford will fit into a potential playoff rotation. I don't see him getting much (if any) playoff minutes.

[Barfunk]

we have to get Manu back into rhythm. +1 So far so good. Gonna need him for the playoffs...

[DAF86]

Who's worst at defending the pick and roll? Lin or Amare?

[Reck]

Eat him up Timmy

[Fireball]

Timmay !!!!

[Capt Bringdown]

You can talk about Lin being over-rated, and perhaps he is, but what's NY's record since Melo returned?

[Dex]

I hate you, Richard Jefferson.

[Reck]

Lead goes from 20 to 13 in less then a minute. lol

[Paranoid Pop]

RJ and Blair, momentum killers.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Can we please see some Leonard on Melo???

[Paranoid Pop]

Blair already killed the momentum vs. Denver in only 3minutes.

[Reck]

When is Blair's contract up?

He needs to GTFO.

[Barfunk]

I'm willing to bet this team would be a little bit better if Richard Jefferson would attack the basket more, but he doesn't.

[timtonymanu]

My gosh, get RJ out.

[Capt Bringdown]

Lol la

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

So Melo is killing us but Pop leaves RJ on him rather than bringing in Kawhi... why?

[Barfunk]

lol Jefferson just camping out at the 3 point line singing Kumbaya

[Capt Bringdown]

Send in the scrubs

[Reck]

Jefferson playing for the Knicks now. :lol

What a laughable tool.

[Texas_Ranger]

Dick needs to gtfo!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

OMG! Lin went left!!! :lol

[Reck]

Please eject Blair.....

[DPG21920]

Great take by TP. Let's see if he can actually complete the and-1.

[Rummpd]

Blair could kick Stoudemire's *&^ if really wanted to.

[DPG21920]

I would pay big money to see Blair beast Amare :lol

[Fireball]

Blair could kick Stoudemire's *&^ if really wanted to.

the man wears glasses ... please

[DPG21920]

Tha funk?

[timtonymanu]

That has to be the most slippery ball ever used. WTF.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

The other thing about Lin is that his TO numbers is obscene. He's a growing player, but there was good reason teams passed on him, and we all know what D'Antoni's system does for PGs.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

That has to be the most slippery ball ever used. WTF.

I commented on that in the first quarter. Unlikely to be the ball, but I'm guessing it's very cold because players get butterfingers when it's cold.

[DPG21920]

This, in theory should be a pretty good defensive line up.

[Reck]

Parker has to do everything on this team.

[Spursfan092120]

Never seen such shitty officiating for a home team in a game.

[Reck]

Spurs are gased.

[GSH]

Never seen such shitty officiating for a home team in a game.

You missed the Chicago game?

[Fireball]

wedgie

[Reck]

Green committed a backcourt violation, no?

[Paranoid Pop]

Kawhi on the court, good things happen.

[DAF86]

Manu is a top 5 passer in the league.

[timtonymanu]

That was a nice play.
