[aal04]

Not many times in history when a coach has so much freedom to experiment.

now or never for Tmac/Baynes/anything

[Budkin]

TMAC!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

[SpurPadre]

Why am I annoyed we're only up 19?

Understandable but the Spurs are on cruise control, tbh.

[G-Nob]

Green can only be trusted in garbage time going forward. 100% liability.

[DatBoyGood]

[MVPCues]

First recorded stat with the Spurs....assist.

[Captivus]

TMac just assisted Baynes...WOW!!
Who thought that was possible 1 year ago?

[will_spurs]

Joseph - De Colo - McGrady - Blair - Baynes

LOL

[Raven]

lolakers :lol

[DatBoyGood]

:lmao

[Gagnrath]

God Gasol can just shoot right over blair without even noticing his small non-jumping pretend bigness.

[Paulie]

Nice foul TMAC :lol

[Raven]

tmac :lol

[capek]

T-mac :lol

Gotta get your feel back son :tu

[Uriel]

Joseph - De Colo - McGrady - Blair - Baynes

LOL
Wow, this team has a lot of scrubs. And that's not even counting Mills.

[DatBoyGood]

Well at least tmac is getting out of the 1st round !

[SpurPadre]

LOL @ TMAC trying to hump Gasol.

[benstanfield]

:hat There he is. 15 year old me would've prejacked.

[DatBoyGood]

Gasol should join us next season

[Budkin]

No injuries. Sweep the Fakers. TMac and Baynes playing. Awesome.

[freetiago]

forcing the turnover

and another forced turnvoer by Tmac

[Uriel]

T-Mac - Baynes pick n' roll! :lol

[ace3g]

Tmac with some good hands on D

[rwb]

I won't be able to watch the game until later on the DVR but I'm trying to follow along. Just curious...did Howard get ejected for complaining or for hard fouls? I loved Pop's plan of wrapping him up and not allowing him to show off at the rim. Eventually that had to get to his ego.

[hyhy]

LOL TMAC

[Fireball]

Nice ovation for Gasol .. At least Andy Garcia was man enough to watch the Lakers ship sink

[superjames1992]

T-MAC looks lost, tbh. Not unexpected, of course, but I can see why he's been on the bench this series.

[DatBoyGood]

:lmao

[007nites]

T-Mac needs a bucket

[Libri]

celebrity row is empty :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

Sweep!!!

FTL.

[Budkin]

Damn no pts for Mac!

[superjames1992]

We buried them.

[Raven]

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP

[Juggity]

Kobe limping out on crutches after a Lakers sweep is one of the prettiest sights I've ever seen

[Fireball]

Now lets rest ... I need some sleep because I have to get up early

[Mal]

Kobe limping out on crutches after a Lakers sweep is one of the prettiest sights I've ever seen

Oh, no. If he actually was on the floor in this series. that would be so sweet

[team-work]

:toast

[RD2191]

:flag:

[PingPong]

Three minutes without hitting at least ONE shot. Well, now the summer league is over.

[hyhy]

tmac makes a steal on one end and turns it over on the other.. he seems slow though

[MaineSpursFan]

is there anywhere to see a replay of the game

[Southwest Texas Fan]

On to the next round.

[loveforthegame]

Sweet sweep. FTL.

T-Mac looked a little lost but he had some flashes too. Active hands, good passing. Looks in good shape but needs his timing back. Should help.

[SpurPadre]

Kobe limping out on crutches after a Lakers sweep is one of the prettiest sights I've ever seen

The prettiest was when we made him and Fisher cry, though.

[will_spurs]

celebrity row is empty :lol

The funny thing is, with all the future HoFers in the Staples Center today, there were more celebrities on the court/bench on both sides, than on "celebrity row" :D

[Bruno]

Well, a sweep with 4 double digits wins.
it was easier than expected. Props to the Spurs for raising their level at the right time even if they have been helped by facing a bad and injured Lakers team.

And :lol @ people believing in a T-Mac curse.

[SpurPadre]

The weirdest visual I've seen in the NBA-TMAC dribbling out the clock and celebrating a series win.

[Spurs Brazil]

Pop on

This made last year's 1st Round vs. the Jazz look like an instant classic.

[crc21209]

Great series win! Now lets get some rest and get ready for the next round!

[SpurPadre]

Ok, Nugs and Dubs, you may now continue to beat the shit out of each other all the way to have a Quadruple OT in Game 7. Oh, and continue to turn the ball over to each other in the last seconds of games, too, lol.

[Budkin]

Welcome to the second round T-Mac!!!!

[Budkin]

Dude how mind bending was it to see T-Mac running around in a Spurs uni?

[hyhy]

T-Mac wasnt running at all

Okay, that's funny.

They were right. I'm having so much fun.

:lmao

[Gagnrath]

Tim's getting fed up with stupid questions at interviews, he's just still to polite to make them pay instead of making silly faces while politely answering the question. I predict 2 more years before he starts clowning them ala Pop.

[wut]

Gasol was pretty somber, but I wouldn't fault the guy for wanting to get out of LA, the guy deserves to be on a team that can appreciate his talents.

[Tim_duncan21]

Nice win!! :D

I don't think he was taking to Mitch. I think he was talking to someone in the stands, tbh. Mitch didn't say anything to him.

The slobbering Kobe fans (I think that was Adande's voice I heard) know no shame. Yes, the world goes on without Mamballhog.

This

[TampaDude]

Lakers swept. Mission accomplished.

Howard getting tossed was just icing on the cake.

GO SPURS GO!!!!!

[milkyway21]

The Los Angeles Lakers gave away thousands of white towels to their fans Sunday for the tears? :cry

4-0 :flag: congrats San Antonio !

[BatManu20]

Celebrity row..

That was awesome. You know you've whipped their ass supremely when Jack gets his fat ass out by the 3rd quarter

[Obstructed_View]

for the tears?

Sign of surrender, tbh.

[milkyway21]

Sign of surrender, tbh. :yield :lmao

[SpurPadre]

I wonder how Stak5 would've reacted to Howard trying to pick on CoJo if he was out there?

[Sean Cagney]

I don't think he was taking to Mitch. I think he was talking to someone in the stands, tbh. Mitch didn't say anything to him.

The fan probably just called him a quitter or bum, not far from the truth there so he deserved whatever.

[Timmy4ever]

Kobe Bryant eased off the golf cart before the game, and he looked down the nearly deserted Staples hallway as he balanced on one leg. “Mr. Pop, Mr. Pop!” he said loudly, smiling.
Gregg Popovich turned toward him and walked 30 feet. Popovich hugged Bryant, and he talked to him quietly for several minutes. Popovich finished with another comforting pat on Bryant’s shoulder.


Any pic?

[MI21]

I really enjoyed Blair calling Howard a pussy right to his face four or five times in a row.

[alamo50]

Feels good.

[robot89]

Man,
wouldn't it be great to own this series on dvd??
Pm me;)

[Killakobe81]

Nice ovation for Gasol .. At least Andy Garcia was man enough to watch the Lakers ship sink

Was glad to see that and Andy Garcia gets mad respect.

Congrats to all the REAL, non-hater Spur fans on this board. Good luck next round even if I wont be rooting for ya. Classy organization withSOME classy fans though sometimes it's hard to see, through all the jerks that enjoying player injury and the racist stuff especially downstairs ...

Pop is a class act and my favorite non-Laker coach. Before moving to SA Spurs were my 2nd favorite team ... and Duncan is my favorite big since HAkeem. Great player great coaching tough combination to beat.

Oh and no injury excuses ...you guys were the better team and won.

His fans are the worst.

Pop owns Dantoni

[Malice]

Any one recall this exchange in game 3?

Also, on the "Duncan is a robot with no personality" front, I rather enjoyed a sequence caught by the cameras during the first half of Game 3, where going into time out after a Parker reverse lay-in, Duncan tapped his point guard on the head and said, "Yeah, torch those mothereffers."

[hooperflash]

His (Kobe) fans are the worst.

Easily a huge part of why I don't like most Laker ”fans”, if he isn't playing they don't watch the games. They need to get off kobe's small D and admit they're not actual Laker fans..

[hooperflash]

I agree with you 100%. They will even diss Shaq as I said because their GOD Kobe did not get alot with him and had a feud (After Kobe snitched on him to police saying he paid girls off) and not acknowledge Shaq was their MVP and main guy during their title runs! Yet they side with their GOD and diss Shaq.
