[Floyd Pacquiao]

Well this game should be interesting indeed. I'm really interested in seeing if Bud is trying to run the same offense as the Spurs.

[RD2191]

Yay, Spurs gonna beat up on another scrub team while losing to all the good ones. :sleep

[Floyd Pacquiao]

^It's December you fckn fat mojao... chill

[monkeypunk]

Hopefully we get to see a lil thomas tonight.

[Darius Bieber]

Really waiting for Saturday's game against Indiana...

[RD2191]

^It's December you fckn fat mojao... chill

This team has problems you fukin faggot. Not my fault you're in denial.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

This team has problems you fukin faggot. Not my fault you're in denial.
They just have a coasting problem, tbh. You're just to dumb to see it.

[RD2191]

They just have a coasting problem, tbh. You're just to dumb to see it.

Lol.

[timtonymanu]

Great news about Diaw.

I expect Bud to get a standing ovation.

[bklynspursfan]

Really waiting for Saturday's game against Indiana...

That should be a good one. We usually play them pretty well so it should be interesting. I'm more worried about the Wolves game, we always seem to struggle against them, and now they have martin lol

[ajballer4]

:lol

[weeks]

This team has problems you fukin faggot. Not my fault you're in denial. to be fair bro you've always been a huge cliff jumper regardless. But yeah, it takes away some of the enjoyment when we beat lotto teams and lose to real competition.Makes games like this a little less enjoyable imo

[r0drig0lac]

Really waiting for Saturday's game against Indiana...

[spurs10]

I think ace3g adding a third picture of that cute as hell girl, with a sign that says "Thank You For Coming," is going to be good luck. If she was my girlfriend I would ask her to bring that sign home everynight and march around our bedroom at the appropiate time.... never mind back to basketball. I think we will see a team better motivated tonight than in the first half of the previous first half curbstomping we received last game. Coach Bud will gets lots of love I'm sure!! GSG!! :toast

[TXstbobcat]

Should get a win tonight. Spurs. 104. Hawks 90. :flag:

[boutons_deux]

better be ready, ATL is 3rd best team in EC at 9-9, 4-6 on the road. :)

Should be a win here to get Spurs back on a roll. In other words Kick their ass!

[crc21209]

Good news to hear Diaw is available...:tu

[TheGoldStandard]

Will Bud outcoach Pop? Probably not but he knows the strength and weaknesses of the team so it should be interesting to see what they focus on tonight on the defensive side and where they attack on offense.

[DatBoyGood]

This is going to be one of those games for Danny where he's on fire from 3.

Paul Garcia PS @PaulGarciaPS
(http://twitter.com/PaulGarciaPS)Coach Pop said Tiago Splitter will be back in starting lineup vs. #Hawks (http://twitter.com/search?q=%23Hawks). He also said there won’t be any limitations on Boris Diaw. #Spurs (http://twitter.com/search?q=%23Spurs)

[TheGoldStandard]

Shifty team dominance

Spurs have a new public address announcer again if anyone cares. Hopefully he is a lot better then the last few Pa announcers

[TXstbobcat]

Splitter!!

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!

[PlayNando]

ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

[moisaenz]

behind first quarter

[Darius Bieber]

I know it's only Atlanta, but it's still an embarrassing crowd..

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy!!!

[moisaenz]

was mills coming in early?

[jkid12456]

pop was going to sub patty, but pop put him back why?

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy with a nice start

[moisaenz]

timmy feasting!

[ace3g]

TD/Splitter!!!

[Raven]

checking in tbh

[Chomag]

that was a hell of a pass

[timtonymanu]

My feed is super blurry. What is that thing above Tiago's arm sleeve?

[moisaenz]

some sports tape..

[PingPong]

My feed is super blurry. What is that thing above Tiago's arm sleeve?


kynetic tape. It's more usual in volleyball.

[TXstbobcat]

Leonard!!

[timtonymanu]

Ahh I see. Thought he got a new tat or something.

[moisaenz]

marco on the floor

[Brunodf]

:bang That lineup

[moisaenz]

midget ball

[Raven]

i hate this lineup.

[moisaenz]

where is everybody on the forum?

[Chomag]

sloppy so far

[jkid12456]

idiot pop, it should be belinelli, mills, manu, on the court. together as the second unit. it only works that way..

[Robz4000]

Atlanta is pretty solid tbh. Or at least their starters and Korver when he's healthy; no idea whose on their bench.

[PingPong]

Ahh I see. Thought he got a new tat or something.

Sorry, Kinesio tape.

[Chomag]

KL still looks half asleep, i would love to see more aggression from him... he would beast

[TXstbobcat]

Mills333

[Joyrider]

Manu, Marco and Mills are so fucking deadly together.

[TXstbobcat]

Diaw!!

[Chomag]

Manu getting a little to fancy... settle down man

[timtonymanu]

Leonard will be fine. He'll deliver when it matters (Game 6 FT excluded).

[Ditty]

Melissa Stewart

Her boyfriend went to high school with me. Real cool funny guy, but he is a goof ball. I don't how he ended up with her lol.

[ace3g]

caught a break there, lol

[TXstbobcat]

Diaw!! Nice!!

[Chomag]

Spurs look so sluggish right now, everything is at half speed. Wake up guys!!!

[r0drig0lac]

hawks defense :lol

[Brunodf]

Neal would've taken that 37 foot jumper

[TXstbobcat]

Manu!!

[Chomag]

Nice move Manu!

[Captivus]

That Gerald Green dunk in the top 10 they show in LP is incredible, almost standing dunk.

[TXstbobcat]

Nice pass

[DapDaGenius]

This is a nice warm-up game for us. Pop running plays he never ran before, running unusual line-ups. We're looking pretty nice.

[Chomag]

Damn our interior D is sucking bad

[timtonymanu]

Diaw still looking 2.0.

[jeebus]

Penderfag is making 80 year old Brand look like Prime Tim Duncan.

[Brunodf]

Damn our interior D is sucking bad
Beli/Ayers/Diaw frontline

[timtonymanu]

Yeah got to work on the defense though.

[moisaenz]

some baynes v brand??

[Chomag]

Ya Aryers is so bad, I still cant believe the Spurs spent so much money on him

[TXstbobcat]

Splitter!!! Nice!!

[DapDaGenius]

Penderfag is making 80 year old Brand look like Prime Tim Duncan.

LOL Extra funny.

[Chomag]

I'm hoping that Thomas will bump Ayers off the roster

[moisaenz]

timmy was bored..

[ace3g]

Belly!!!

[TXstbobcat]

Marco333

[moisaenz]

green has not done anything on either side

[Chomag]

Belly is such a huge upgrade over Neal it aint even funny

[Spursnlego]

When was the last time ATL missed a shot!

[moisaenz]

chicago misses belli now..

[DapDaGenius]

Let's get rid of Green and Ayres...and get a decent PF!

[palangi]

parker needs to pass that to mills in the corner.

[timtonymanu]

Green being the streaky player he is per par.

No reason to throw him under the bus or give up on him.

[Chomag]

Green acting like a scrub again....

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy!!!

[moisaenz]

should have signed plumlee instead of Ayres

[boutons_deux]

camel toe!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALYoQ_-5sUI

[Chomag]

should have signed plumlee instead of Ayres

With the money they threw at Ayres there was allot of other players they could have gotten lol

[Darius Bieber]

Anyone know what I need to Tweet to for the Spurs trivia? I actually know this one..

[benefactor]

Grande Beli shitting on ST again. 7pts, 2ast in only 9min. :lol

[Captivus]

Grande Beli shitting on ST again. 7pts, 2ast in only 9min. :lol

https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS_nUGoKHBQDPDy4nzA269BKuOb4mu-0baJaNlfOYOJ3gRIFJHx

Once again, setting trends...

[TXstbobcat]

Splitter!!

[ElNono]

Damn, that felt like a long article to translate... it's on the Manu article thread.

hope I didn't miss much...

[r0drig0lac]

tiagooo nice move

[timtonymanu]

Grande Beli shitting on ST again. 7pts, 2ast in only 9min. :lol

Raven :lol

[Chomag]

green!!! God Dammit you got to get back on D!

[TXstbobcat]

Marco333

[ElNono]

come on Tony... in your face

[Chomag]

Holy shit Spurs are just standing flat footed on D

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy!!!

[ElNono]

what's with everybody going hero? no ball movement?

[moisaenz]

timmy is done they say!

[timtonymanu]

Man, it's great to see Duncan rounding back into form.

Spurs look like a fool's gold team when he was struggling.

[PlayNando]

Kawhi has been on the bench for a long time.

Marco playing like a star, per par......

[PlayNando]

TP9 1 assist in 13 minutes...........

[jeebus]

Damn, that felt like a long article to translate... it's on the Manu article thread.

hope I didn't miss much...
Penderfag being useless. I long for the days of Bonner getting good minutes, that's how awful he is.

[Raven]

i can't understand how can anyone not hate belinelli, his impact on team d is so incredibly bad it's absurd..

[Chomag]

KL getting the "You are a roll player" by Pop?

[Diego20]

what's with everybody going hero? no ball movement?

Ball movement with TP playing? I don't think so

[RD2191]

:lmao

[Chomag]

Hawks so far showing they want this more

[moisaenz]

spurs d sux

[phxspurfan]

I can't recall when Duncan was a good finisher

[timtonymanu]

Ugh if they miss, they get the rebound and make another basket. Wake up Spurs.

[Raven]

the d stepped up right now. need to make some shots though

[palangi]

is malcom thomas dressed tonight?

[moisaenz]

kawhi stepped up

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy!!!!!!!!!!

[Raven]

aaaand we have a lead :)

[Chomag]

end of the first half allready? Man this game is going fast.

[TXstbobcat]

Damn, Timmy could have a 20/20 game tonight.

[timtonymanu]

The Spurs are playing too loose at the moment. Not taking Atlanta seriously. That should change in the 2nd half.

[Fireball]

Wow that game sucks ... why did I get up for that?

[PlayNando]

i can't understand how can anyone not hate belinelli, his impact on team d is so incredibly bad it's absurd..
Raven with crappy takes, per par. :lol :lol :lol

[PlayNando]

Kawhi looks invisible on offense, per par, tbh.

[palangi]

Raven (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=35860) with crappy takes, per par. :lol :lol :lol

it's amazing how stubborn some people can be on an internet message board. even proven wrong they will go out of their way to still try and be right. So far as to make themselves look like an idiot.

[Budkin]

Our D was seriously terrible first half. Pick it up!

[Chomag]

Spurs just need to tighten it up and it should be an easy win from here on out

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy!!!

[TXstbobcat]

Green is ice cold

[timtonymanu]

Kawhi and Green have been horrible today.

[jeebus]

pretty sure that's the 30th time Green has gone sailing by a Hawk

[Chomag]

Timmy looking alive!!

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!

[PlayNando]

Kawhi looks PATHETIC.

[Chomag]

Someone phone the Spurs and tell them they have a game tonight :lol

[Budkin]

Man we need to wake the fuck up. Guys can't shoot. Rhythm is awful. WTF.

[timtonymanu]

I'm a Green fan, but he's really hurting the team tonight. Sit him down already.

[Texas_Ranger]

Green and Leonard :lol

[ElNono]

The struggle to beat the Hawks...

[Robz4000]

Pop needs to lay into everyone tbh; everyone's playing lazy. Doesn't help that Leonard and Green have lost any sense of offense in their game.

[PingPong]

LOL.

[Chomag]

lmao wow

[ElNono]

that kind of game...

[TXstbobcat]

Jesus Christ!!!!

[timtonymanu]

smh

[Chomag]

Spurs still got this game I think, but they better not be proud of their play in this win.

[TXstbobcat]

Marco333

[Budkin]

Can't score against a .500 team in the East. Just embarrassing.

[timtonymanu]

Other than Duncan, Splitter, and Marco, everyone is a total fail right now.

[ElNono]

coasting, IMO

[Chomag]

dat hero ball

[TXstbobcat]

Diaw!!!!

[ElNono]

dont get hurt manu

[HarlemHeat37]

Was Bud the real mastermind, tbh?:wow:wow..

[Budkin]

How many fucking layups we gonna miss?

[TXstbobcat]

Tony333

[TheGoldStandard]

Bud knows the formula.

[ElNono]

Was Bud the real mastermind, tbh?:wow:wow..

Like Presti, tbh

[Ginobili3]

Kawhi is 1-12 on his 3 ptrs in the last 5 games...

[Budkin]

Pull your heads out of your asses Spurs!

[TheGoldStandard]

Kawhi Leonard needs to he aggressive and take a jumper inside 20 feet not jack up 3s. Bad coaching

[Chomag]

fucking hell...

[TXstbobcat]

Too many damn turnovers

[jeebus]

oh look

hero ball sits his ass down

and Patty makes a play

:wow

[Budkin]

smfh...

[ElNono]

oh look

hero ball sits his ass down

and Patty makes a play

:wow

stop jinxing

[TheGoldStandard]

Well defense is a huge problem right now abd defense is not about a slump. If this team is coasting they will coast themselves out of a good position in the playoffs and win on the road. Don't like the idea of having to do that.

[blkroadrunners]

These damn T/Os..

[r0drig0lac]

timmy going 20/20

[timtonymanu]

I come back and they're down 5 again. :lol

[TXstbobcat]

Mills!!

[loveforthegame]

:bang

[TheGoldStandard]

Let the Atlanta run continue so much for parker being the problem.

[TXstbobcat]

Splitter!!!

[ElNono]

close the quarter and we'll be ok

[ace3g]

Diaw 2.0!!!

[TXstbobcat]

Diaw333

[ace3g]

Manu!!!

[TXstbobcat]

Manu333

[blkroadrunners]

Manu!!

[ElNono]

Manu, no biggie

[Libri]

yes!!!!!!!

[Reck]

This team has been off for a few games now.

Going through the motions I suspect but damn does it get annoying watching these bunch play so out of sync.

[Chomag]

More of that please!

[PlayNando]

manu 333333 to boris then 33333333333 himself per par to end the quarter. spurs lead per par.

[jeebus]

stop jinxing
hmm

Airs is going to cure cancer.

[Captivus]

MANU!

[Budkin]

If the Spurs played even average tonight they'd be up 10. Please close them out Spurs. Christ.

[RD2191]

:lolstruggling against the hawks

[timtonymanu]

Great finish to the quarter. Now stop fucking around, Spurs.

Hate to say it but I'm dreading Kawhi and Danny returning to the game. Prove me wrong.

[timtonymanu]

:lolstruggling against the hawks

Sup rob

[Budkin]

:lolstruggling against the hawks

Rob I'm starting to drift into your dark world...

[RD2191]

Rob I'm starting to drift into your dark world...
stay away man. its not a good place to be:lol

[Raven]

i don't understand why pops keep undermining his young studs, what good does it to play ginobili and diaw more than leonard, those two have nothing to learn..

[ElNono]

Rob I'm starting to drift into your dark world...

La pulga de Mercedes?

[RD2191]

Sup rob
nm man, just got home. whats the story? any reason the game is so close?

[RD2191]

La pulga de Mercedes?
:lmao

[TXstbobcat]

Diaw!!!

[timtonymanu]

nm man, just got home. whats the story? any reason the game is so close?

Hawks are hitting everything. Spurs look like they don't give a shit tonight.

[TXstbobcat]

Marco having a great game

[ace3g]

Belinelli!!!

[ElNono]

this lineup has INTERNATIONAL INTELLIGENCE

[ElNono]

come on son

[Captivus]

Im starting to like Marco more and more.

[ElNono]

thats an and1

[blkroadrunners]

Thought that shot would have counted

[timtonymanu]

It's a good time to have Marco on my fantasy team. Knowing my luck though, he'll suck once i pick him up. :lol

[Obstructed_View]

That's a shit call.

[RD2191]

Hawks are hitting everything. Spurs look like they don't give a shit tonight.
Yeah, they look like they're just going through the motions. Its early in the season so hopefully they pick it up soon.

[TheGoldStandard]

Kawhi I can see needs to play but not hang out on the 3 point line. Danny is reverting back to Cleveland bench scrub

[TXstbobcat]

Tony!!!

[Raven]

wow elton brand is still in the league :wow

[timtonymanu]

Yeah, they look like they're just going through the motions. Its early in the season so hopefully they pick it up soon.

Leonard and Green have looked awful too.

[ElNono]

Bobo looks good

[TXstbobcat]

Timmy!!

[timtonymanu]

I missed you Timmy. Great to see you back.

[Raven]

beli was a great fit from the start.

diaw playing great, what a skill set that guy has.

finally Tim is playing like Tim.

[TheGoldStandard]

Tim stole kawhis talent to prolong his career.

[Bill_Brasky]

god damn it. quit letting them back in.

[PlayNando]

Danny Green is a cancer tonight tbh.

[Brunodf]

Green in= Hawks run

[jeebus]

Green comes in, lead disappears :lol

[timtonymanu]

Green ugh. Sit back down.

[Texas_Ranger]

Greem sucks tbh

[ElNono]

Teague on Tony's mug... Williams on Danny's mug... come on son

[TDfan2007]

Yeah the focus isn't there again...

[jeebus]

mills has been meh lately after his good start.

He looks like Michael Jordan. compared to Green

[Libri]

Green comes in, lead disappears :lol

:bang
