Should be a great game! :toast

[timtonymanu]

The return of HWSNBN

[DapDaGenius]

RJ looks like a deer caught in some headlights.

[ace3g]

HWSNBN looks like a deer caught in some headlights.

That is how they keep him off the court

[Chris]

With Curry out they have almost no depth at PG. Parker could have a monster game.

[Darius Bieber]

With Curry out they have almost no depth at PG. Parker could have a monster game.

Let's hope it won't be needed and Parker (along with the rest of the Big 3) can rest for the Hawks game tomorrow in Atlanta.

[ace3g]

Hopefully with the B2B, CJ can get some minutes.

[DapDaGenius]

That is how they keep him off the court

:lol

[LakerHater]

What times the game at??

[ace3g]

7:30 PM CST

[Mugen]

Sucks about Curry. I like the Ws a lot, probably my 2nd favorite team in the league. They can make some noise in the playoffs if Curry/Bogut both come back healthy and productive.

[Brunodf]

Spurs by 11, RJ scores 35.

[Bill_Brasky]

Diaw vs Lee :stirpot:

[ace3g]

Jarrett Jack will start at PG for Golden State.

[Strategic]

Spurs by 11, RJ scores 35.


I'm speechless.........

I'm speechless.........

Well, Jack could...

[Spurs Brazil]

Pay attention to Thompson. He's a great shooter

[ace3g]

Parker having trouble with another long defender...

[ace3g]

Boudini time!!

[JingleJangleJingle]

yeah the LA vote is officially as bad as the China Vote...how the hell did Dwight Howard get voted in ahead of Duncan

[Captivus]

Pay attention to Thompson. He's a great shooter

He is my 3pt shooter in my Fantasy League

[loveforthegame]

Bad call.

[ace3g]

the ole Gary Payton/TP foul...

[HarlemHeat37]

Klay Thompson is too ugly for words, tbh..

[Bill_Brasky]

Duncan with a great start.

[loveforthegame]

Thank goodness for Duncan tonight.

[TDMVPDPOY]

hahah hero dive after gettin his shit blockd...fkn get up and run back kent

[Brunodf]

Timmy with 3 blocks in 10 minutes

[loveforthegame]

Spurs having to work for everything.

[TDMVPDPOY]

[JingleJangleJingle]

wow the warriors making a bunch of long twos.

[ace3g]

Carl Landry is today's 6'10 mid range jumper king

[loveforthegame]

Shots in and out.

[ace3g]

Neal with it!!! great pass by Patty

[loveforthegame]

Needed that 3 big time.

[Brunodf]

Great shot

[Arcadian]

Landry is kicking ass

[Libri]

Good shot Neal. Now don't forget that you have to play defense.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs with some bad 1st quarter lately. Let's hope it gets better like the last 2 games

[GB20]

going to be a long night if these clowns continue to hit their shots....
but you said it is an easy win

[Captivus]

As soon as the Spurs start scoring, they will take over

[elemento]

Carl Landry is a beast since his HOU days. I would love to see him in SA

[Texas_Ranger]

hope someone joins tim and scores something.

[Darius Bieber]

Patty with a tremendous pass!

[Boomersgold]

Patty, wtf?

[ace3g]

Patty passing takes a dive...

[Boomersgold]

We can't hit anything....

[TDMVPDPOY]

fck cant hit anything

[loveforthegame]

Too many missed open shots. wtf.

[ace3g]

there you go Tiago!!!

[Boomersgold]

Splitter!!

[TDMVPDPOY]

splitter beasting on his own

[ace3g]

Patty goes for those Manu steals

[TDMVPDPOY]

whats with the 3pt shots....fkn

[Boomersgold]

What's with our offense?

[ace3g]

Neal...

[JingleJangleJingle]

wow that was bad.

[Russ]

Too reliant on 3s.

[loveforthegame]

Warriors out hustling Spurs.

Settling for too many jumpers. Go inside.

[Libri]

What the hell? Neal lol

[TDMVPDPOY]

no fkn playmaker on the floor, anf fkn clowns shooting 3s...only down 7, whats the need for 3s...

[Warlord23]

Chucking up garbage and hoping it falls

[GB20]

neal is going to get benched

[Texas_Ranger]

wow, this is some great mickey mouse basketball.

[Brunodf]

Mills and Neal:bang

[Boomersgold]

Not liking this Neal and Patty combo, tbh. Splitter's beasting down low on the offensive end though (defensively, he's not playing that spectacular)

[Spurs Brazil]

Jax bad shot, Neal bad shot, run the damn offensive

[spursmartyr]

Piss poor shot selection

[Captivus]

If Mills cant assist Neal, then Neal has to do it. He missed, but thats not the point.
Get NDC or CoJo.

[Two10Whitey]

Can De Colo take over Neal's minutes please?

[ace3g]

Diaw/Splitter!!!

[Captivus]

Can De Colo take over Neal's minutes please?

I rather see NDC with Neal.

[elemento]

,,,

[Boomersgold]

Diaw gets his Magic Johnson on.

[bklynspursfan]

Tiago never gets respect from the refs lol

[Capt Bringdown]

Too many f'n 3's. This team would be a lot better if they played real basketball instead of 3-ball shoot-em-up.

[loveforthegame]

Splitter and Duncan abusing them.

Diaw with some nice passing.

[DapDaGenius]

I wanna see CoJo DAMMIT!!

[benefactor]

The second unit without Manu is even more painful in person.

[ace3g]

Neal with Ray Allen type plays = good

[loveforthegame]

Neal with timely 3s and the little runner.

[ace3g]

TP/Splitter!!

[TDMVPDPOY]

splitter is just toying them now

[bklynspursfan]

Parker comes in and the offense starts flowing

[Boomersgold]

Watch how Tony Parker run plays, Patty. That's how an experienced player runs plays.

[Libri]

Neal playing better. Pretty sure Pop cussed him out.

[Boomersgold]

Matty B!

[Captivus]

Looking GOOD!!!

[JingleJangleJingle]

god so sick and tired of carl landry.

[loveforthegame]

No words.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol bonner leavin his man jumpin on pumpfakes...love the effort, but the defense sucks donkey dick

[dragonpride2001]

I am in section 119 there was a marriage proposal next to us

[Brunodf]

Pop still think that Bonner is good guarding jumpshooting bigs?

[bbarry]

Watch how Tony Parker run plays, Patty. That's how an experienced player runs plays.

well... considering you can't teach experience...

[TDMVPDPOY]

fkn fags follow spurs on twitter, facebook social media....no mention of spurstalk....fkn GNSF

[Duncan2177]

god so sick and tired of carl landry.

So sick and tired of Bonner.

[Captivus]

And....? Did she say Yes?

[TDMVPDPOY]

[bklynspursfan]

Horrible call wtf!

[ace3g]

Spurs bigs in foul trouble, Splitter needs to be careful

[loveforthegame]

Thank goodness Splitter has stepped up with Duncan in foul trouble.

[dragonpride2001]

I think so

[Trainwreck2100]

fuck you landry

[TDMVPDPOY]

i dont like this shit when duncan gets a very hot start, then team goes away from him next quarter and thereon....

[ace3g]

Splitter!!!

[bklynspursfan]

Tiago with a mans move in the post

[Two10Whitey]

I wanna see Splitter own Landry.

[ace3g]

Splitter in Popeye mode

[FromWayDowntown]

Monty McCutchen's rivalry with Tim Duncan is still alive and well.

[TDMVPDPOY]

run more plays for splitter damn it, whats with these hero shit

[loveforthegame]

Fucking terrible!! :td

[bklynspursfan]

Parker isnt having a good half. When he pulled up Bonner was wide open at the top of the key

[JingleJangleJingle]

that guy is such a spur killer.

[TDMVPDPOY]

KL fkn deferes too much, does he even have a shot attempt this half yet?? fkn passive on offense atm....

[Brunodf]

Wow what horrible fastbreak, Splitter is looking good

[Two10Whitey]

Our ball movement has been horrible for the most part these past couple of weeks.

[Spurs Brazil]

Tiago playing well, Tony very bad, Green defense is pathetic tonight

[ace3g]

Our ball movement has been horrible for the most part these past couple of weeks.

good time to give Nando or CJ some minutes

[Captivus]

The Spurs are better then the Warriors, they should know that and not force plays.

[ace3g]

Green!!!

[Trainwreck2100]

eat shit landry

[Cry Havoc]

If Green can do that in the post-season...

[Chinook]

That was such a bad shot ... that it went in.

[ace3g]

Bonner...

[loveforthegame]

Bonner can't even hit a shot.

[JRHernandez88]

Danny Green made the layup :wow

[Trainwreck2100]

what the fuck is with these fucking threes

[ace3g]

Tiago in Popeye mode!!!

[bklynspursfan]

Dam Splitter

[loveforthegame]

Splitter!!!

[Cry Havoc]

Splitter is becoming a monster. Finally. Great to see. Twin towers are BACK.

[Boomersgold]

Holy Crap! Tiago with the monster rebound!

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol popabitch not playing diaw when lee is on the court to prove that diaw vs lee thread wrong...

[JingleJangleJingle]

jesus fuck all these in and out shots are annoying

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Spurs are all out of sorts good thing their only down 3.

[Captivus]

YEAH!! Contract Year!!

[DapDaGenius]

My baby still ain't got no points....*sigh*

[Libri]

Tiago is growing a testicle.

[Darius McCrary]

At this rate the Lakers are going to sign Tiago in the summer....

[DapDaGenius]

Green nice rebound...nice

[TDMVPDPOY]

hahaha bonner fkn clown

[Darius McCrary]

If Tiago had the personality to hard foul, or non injury flagrant once in a while, he'd make Rasho defense look like Malik Rose 05

[Cry Havoc]

DANNY GREEN I LOVE YOU

[loveforthegame]

Green with nice defense.

[ace3g]

glad Kawhi is ok, he kind of went to the ground prior to that play on the sideline, might have slipped

[TDMVPDPOY]

did popabitch just went into KLs ass...

[loveforthegame]

Amazing to be down only 1.

[Libri]

Pop is piiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssssseeeeeed

[bklynspursfan]

Kawhi getting an earful from pop and tony

[Boomersgold]

did popabitch just went into KLs ass...

huh?

[Cry Havoc]

Kawhi getting an earful from pop and tony

What did he do? I missed it.

[Boomersgold]

Why's Pop mad at Kawhi?

[ace3g]

what happened? power went out here, what did Kawhi do?

[Brunodf]

Good ending of half. Pop is mad

[Two10Whitey]

Kawhi passed it to the wrong person I think.

[Spurs Brazil]

Great 1st half by Tiago/TD

I hope they can stay out of foul trouble

[loveforthegame]

Kawhi getting an earful from pop and tony

What happened??

[TDMVPDPOY]

pop mad with the shitty inbound pass that was meant for parker, but he was gettin shut down, so pass it to splitter where KL should be cutting into the lane for the open layup but he was late to read the play....green ended up bricking a 3pt out of desperation...


KL has been non-existent in the first half, havnt looked at the boxscore, but seems like he hasnt shot up anything in the first half....dude needs to hero it a few times to get going...

[timvp]

Pop going HAM. He got mad that: 1) Splitter caught the ball with three seconds to go in the half and then turned his back to the basket at the three-point line 2) After Kawhi inbounded it, he was supposed to cut off of Splitter to get the ball back. Instead, Kawhi just kinda stood there.

IMO, I can't really blame Splitter too much. He was expecting a cut and Kawhi didn't cut.

Hopefully Pop lights them up at half and gets everyone going :tu

[Pauleta14]

haha Tony is mad at Kawhi!!

kept screaming at him for not passing him the ball... :lol

[Floyd Pacquiao]

pop is mad at kawhi because he didn't cut to the basket in time when he passed tiago the ball,

[Libri]

They should record the half time talks. Put it on HBO or something.

[bklynspursfan]

What happened??
What everyone said below your post lol bad decision he made where the spurs could've had momentum going into the half

[FromWayDowntown]

They should record the half time talks. Put it on HBO or something.

Tonight's would be one for the ages. Pop had started it before he even left the floor.

[Brunodf]

Big 3(Tony,Timmy,Tiago) scored 36 points(15-25 FG)/11 rebs/6 ast/3 blks

[DapDaGenius]

Kawhi is about to get a mouth full while in that locker room. :eyebrows

[TDMVPDPOY]

danny green, KL, jax.....our 3 perimeter players not showing up tonight

[Libri]

haha Tony is mad at Kawhi!!

kept screaming at him for not passing him the ball... :lol

haha

[JingleJangleJingle]

so do Indians pay taxes on their casinos?

[Darius McCrary]

Kawhi needs to get his head into the spurs mentality. Pop needs to be ruthless with him. Break him down and them build him up.

[RD2191]

dang, just got home, why is golden state leading?

[ace3g]

problem with the basket, crooked, lol

[SpursIndonesia]

dang, just got home, why is golden state leading?

Our wing players haven't showed up for the night, basically.

[FromWayDowntown]

Uneven rim delay at halftime.

[Capt Bringdown]

Pop has a legitimate twin towers threat on his hands. You gotta wonder why he's ignored the obvious and gone with Blair in previous years.
As intelligent as Pop was during the title years, his Blair/Bonner bungling has been monumentally stupid, negligible and incompetent.

[Two10Whitey]

Cheaters...

[FromWayDowntown]

Of course, Green hitting everything on the basket with the bad rim.

[Boomersgold]

Uneven rim delay at halftime.

No wonder we're shooting so poorly from three. I can guarantee that Stern had something to do with this.

[FromWayDowntown]

No wonder we're shooting so poorly from three. I can guarantee that Stern had something to do with this.

Wrong end for that.

[timvp]

Another strange delay in a game at home against the Warriors?

#watercannonmemories

[timvp]

Another strange delay in a game at home against the Warriors?

#watercannonmemories

[FromWayDowntown]

Teams going back to dressing rooms.

[Darius McCrary]

Wtf is going on

[FromWayDowntown]

Another strange delay in a game at home against the Warriors?

#watercannonmemories

Pretty sure W's won that night.

:(

[Darius Bieber]

No wonder we're shooting so poorly from three. I can guarantee that Stern had something to do with this.

Golden State shot at the crooked hoop during the first half. :lol

[Brunodf]

OMG, Spurs still have to travel tonight

[DapDaGenius]

Golden State shot at the crooked hoop during the first half. :lol

So the crooked hoop was giving them an advantage? I see.....

[Spurs Brazil]

I almost sure that happened in the Landry dunk after the play were already stopped. He hanged on the rim for a while

[timvp]

Pretty sure W's won that night.

:(
Yeah, they did. Tim Hardaway and Latrell Sprewell went HAM, IIRC.

http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursnation/files/2010/11/Alamodome-Water-cannon-306x205.jpg

[RD2191]

wtf

[Darius McCrary]

Did Landy bend the rim when he slammed a dead ball late in the 2nd?? Yet another reason Landry sucks.

[timvp]

OMG, Spurs still have to travel tonightTrue. That sucks :wow


I almost sure that happened in the Landry dunk after the play were already stopped. He hanged on the rim for a while
Yep. Good call. :tu

[Trainwreck2100]

Stupid fucking Landry, fine his ass for this shit

[Russ]

Just four guys with 44 of the Spurs 46 points.

I thought Kawhi's last game was his best and most active as a Spur. Now, completely the opposite.

When Kawhi is flying around the Spurs are a different team. Did he have a fictitious girlfriend die or something???

[timvp]

This time, it was Landry who shot himself in the foot.

#badjokes

[Chinook]

For those you aren't watching on a feed, you're missing a lot of interesting conversation. You can see replays before they show them on TV. (Elliott and Land look at them all during the commercial break.) You also get to hear a lot of idle chatter between Land and Elliott. It's nice to hear that they don't act differently when their on being shown on television.

EDIT: Also, you can see the skits they do at the AT&T center during commercial breaks.

[dragonpride2001]

Something is wrong with one of the backboards

[Libri]

That rim must be made in China. :p:

[TVI]

So the crooked hoop was giving them an advantage? I see.....GS didn't exactly light it up in the first half. The Spurs just played like chumps, and the officials didn't exactly help. They tried to even out the bad calls after they called that ridiculous third one on Duncan, which is why they're only down one at the half.

[Capt Bringdown]

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_s4apuC76AOU/R5tfrXsO1bI/AAAAAAAAACQ/kpM2dy3Z5AA/s200/homer_boring.gif

[FromWayDowntown]

They should just play the game on one end and make the defensive team take it out to the top before starting a possession.

[timvp]

http://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/199411040SAS.html

Damn, Ricky Pierce went buck. He had a habit of doing that against the Spurs though, tbh.




P.S.

David Robinson with the ho-hum 27/16/6/5/2 :lol

[FromWayDowntown]

Looks like they got it fixed.

[Boomersgold]

How much longer....

[dragonpride2001]

Sing a long with Neil diamonds sweet Caroline going on
Now YMCA

[FromWayDowntown]

Teams back out.

[dragonpride2001]

Sing a long with Neil diamonds sweet Caroline going on
Now YMCA

[dragonpride2001]

Sorry for the double post
More dancing songs going on

[Capt Bringdown]

They should just play the game on one end and make the defensive team take it out to the top before starting a possession.

Make-it, take-it. First team to 100 wins.

[timvp]

They pick the Dan Hughes interview to replay? I can hear the city pick up their remote, tbh.

[Darius McCrary]

Landry you fat idiot

[Libri]

Too much time.

Hopefully Pop's pep talk doesn't lose its effect.

[Ditty]

Peter Holts cheap ass can't even afford a quality rim

[Russo21]

Tim and Tiago's first half, 26 points, 11 rebounds, 11-16FG. Talk about a two headed monster

[RD2191]

lol ditty

[timvp]

Why isn't Danielle Adams in the NFL, tbh?

[Trainwreck2100]

Well the good new is Manu's hammy should be good to go now

[SpursIndonesia]

2nd half hasn't started yet, right ?

[Darius McCrary]

This delay neutralizes Pop's halftime speech, but also probably means Spurs will revert to norm on outside shooting. We got this. If the game ever starts again....

[RD2191]

what did sean just say?

[DapDaGenius]

GS didn't exactly light it up in the first half. The Spurs just played like chumps, and the officials didn't exactly help. They tried to even out the bad calls after they called that ridiculous third one on Duncan, which is why they're only down one at the half.

I was joking.

[bbarry]

anyone know what the hell bill and sean were talking about just now?

something about a sexual harrassment lawsuit and brent barry?

i am watching the game on tv, but I was flipping through some of the online streams and heard something about that...... and then they got their mic's cut lol

[ChumpDumper]

what did sean just say?lol they didn't cut the feed fast enough

[Mugen]

Well the good new is Manu's hammy should be good to go now

:lol

[timvp]

Well the good new is Manu's hammy should be good to go now

You win the internet for the day. Congrats.

[Russo21]

Golden State have lost 27 concecutive games in San Antonio, wow! Let's extend that streak.

[scanry]

My guess would be that Brent Barry may have criticized the Spurs broadcast or the Spurs on NBATV.

[LakerHater]

Kawhi missed.......the rims bad!

[007nites]

I just heard about some sexual scandal involving Brent Barry on one of the streams. I think they forgot to cut the mic's before they went off air.
