2014 NBA Playoffs - Round 1, Game 7 - Mavs @ Spurs

[RD2191]

:lolManu you scrub

[Malik Hairston]

except Manu is checking Ellis, Green on Carter

Green checked Ellis for the entire 1st quarter while Ellis was in the game..

The Manu vs. Ellis matchup continues to puzzle me, though, especially since Manu is a good post defender..

[lurker]

And Blair quickly showed him why
The timing couldn't have been any better.

[Beaverfuzz]

MANU TO TIMMUH!

[ace3g]

!!!!

[ElNono]

wow magic pass

[ducks]

manu playing well

[Anonymous Cowherd]

Blair knew what he was doing

[RD2191]

:lolMills

[ernest787]

i know patty isn't a good defender, but i love the intensity he brings on the defensive end

[MVPCues]

A 20 point lead at half would be about right.

[spurspokesman]

Manu trying to bury Dallas. I luv ir

[Beaverfuzz]

They're trying hard to get the third foul on Ellis...

[Pound the rock]

Van Gundy annoying as hell, downplays all Spurs fouls

[100%duncan]

Manu came to play

per par

[Beaverfuzz]

TIMMUH AGAIN!

I love it

[MVPCues]

Sweet pass!!!!!!!!!!

[RD2191]

TF! Is it 2005?

[ElNono]

Manu-Tim connection working great

[Raven]

YES YES YES YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

[smaka]

Manu and Timmy, like they've been doing it for the years.

[r0drig0lac]

timmay

[Crookshanks]

Fans need to keep the noise level way up. I think the Spurs are finally getting in the Mavs head.

[TheRemix]

damn spurs clicking on all cylinders

[timtonymanu]

Spurs playing their best basketball in a while.

Again, keep the intensity up and don't settle.

[100%duncan]

MANU TO TDDDDDDDDD

[r0drig0lac]

manu leading the team

[spurspokesman]

Let's go spurs

[Malik Hairston]

If the Spurs had played with this type of energy all series, it would have been over in 5, tbh..

It also helps that Belinelli is getting a short leash:lol..

[Uriel]

Woah. I haven't seen the Spurs been this dominant since the regular season. But they're really stepping on the Mavs' throats right now.

[100%duncan]

Spurs playing their best basketball in a while.

Again, keep the intensity up and don't settle.

Keep the intensity up so our hearts won't need life support after the game tbh :lol

[TE]

If the Spurs had played with this type of energy all series, it would have been over in 5, tbh..
tbh

[superjames1992]

Does anyone know when game 1 will be?

[TDomination]

They need to keep this energy going, no lead Is safe. Keep it going spurs!!!!

[ElNono]

Pop with the extremely short leash on Marco goods :tu

[ernest787]

spurs haven't played like this since the streak ended. glad to see they still have it

[Chinook]

Green checked Ellis for the entire 1st quarter while Ellis was in the game..

The Manu vs. Ellis matchup continues to puzzle me, though, especially since Manu is a good post defender..

It's strange and seems really ill-advised, since Ginobili is much more likely to pick up a foul on Ellis than he is on Carter. It's working so far, as is Splitter and Green switching the PnR. Danny's doing a solid job on Dirk, all things considered.

[Arcadian]

Home court in a game 7 is crucial...It's good knowing that any game 7s we play this year will be at home.

[RD2191]

Can't let up on defense. Mavs aren't going to go away quietly.

[jkid12456]

tony parker is boring to watch

[Darius Bieber]

Step on the fucking fuckers throat now and don't let them see any more light.

[PingPong]

Almost safe scoring to put Belli in court again.

[UZER]

Pop with the extremely short leash on Marco goods :tu

Agreed but went the hell put him in in the first place? It's game seven and Dallas rattled off for straight.

[Crookshanks]

Spurs are showing why they are the #1 Seed! They need to keep up the intensity because the Mavs are not going to just roll over and give up.

[Beaverfuzz]

That's flagrant on Vince too

[100%duncan]

:lmao

[Brazil]

Need to keep up

dont let them without any hope

[Uriel]

If the Spurs had played with this type of energy all series, it would have been over in 5, tbh..

It also helps that Belinelli is getting a short leash:lol..
No basketball team can play with this type of energy for an entire series. That's why we only see it when teams are playing with their backs against the wall.

[BatManu20]

Carter with the textbook tackle tbh

[cjw]

Old man Carter... no brakes on those wheels

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Carter is such a class act. He meant no harm in that foul.

[superjames1992]

Haha Carter and Manu with the warm embrace. :lol

[RD2191]

Oh come on, that wasn't dirty.

[Uriel]

:tu Classy Carter

[Beaverfuzz]

And what's missed is Duncan's dive to the floor.

[Darius Bieber]

Almost safe scoring to put Belli in court again.

http://media.giphy.com/media/12XMGIWtrHBl5e/giphy.gif

[smaka]

At least Carter apologized to Manu. But thats a flagrant too.

[Crookshanks]

Refs are going to have to clamp down or someone is going to get hurt. The Mavs are not above playing dirty and giving some unnecessary hard fouls.

[PingPong]

Is Carter trying to avoid Manu's touchdown?

[ernest787]

the cowboys need to sign VC immediately

[Malik Hairston]

No basketball team can play with this type of energy for an entire series. That's why we only see it when teams are playing with their backs against the wall.

The Spurs have played with really bad energy all series, tbh, getting killed in transition, hustle plays and offensive rebounding against an unathletic team that isn't known for any of those traits..

[MVPCues]

Right call.

[100%duncan]

Someone need to photoshop and put and brazzers logo on that one

[The_Coyote]

LOL

Vince (lying on Ginobili's back): you all right?
Manu: Yes, now get off of me.

[TheRemix]

that Duncan save though

[RD2191]

Crowd is retarded, tbh

[Cry Havoc]

Carter is such a class act. He meant no harm in that foul.

Even asked Manu to make sure he was OK. No hate for Carter except for the fact that he would shoot 30% from 3 in the next series if the Mavs beat us, but he's Steve Fucking Kerr right now.

[cjw]

Would have loved to get a competitor like VC on this team, just was a bit too expensive.

[Beaverfuzz]

MANU! 21

[Cry Havoc]

MANUUUUUUUU

[TheRemix]

brb checking that date I think its 2005

[Cry Havoc]

Great D by Diaw there. Dirk just one of the best shooters ever.

[Cry Havoc]

MILLSSSSSSS

[Beaverfuzz]

PATTY MILLS

RING
THAT
SHIT
UP!

[lurker]

I'm not feeling like this is going to be one of our comeback games, tbh.

[Malik Hairston]

I love this team when Belinelli sits, tbh..

[r0drig0lac]

wow ..manu is amazing

[Brazil]

Awesome... So far it's difficult to understand this was a 7 games serie

[jkid12456]

take patty for granted idiots

[Beaverfuzz]

VERDE!!!


24, I love it

[100%duncan]

GINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Cry Havoc]

LET THE BLOWOUT COMMENCE!!!!! FUCK YES!!!!!!

[EVAY]

Perfect defense by Diaw on Nowitzki there. Just made a great shot.

[RD2191]

WAS THAT GREEN?

[superjames1992]

The bench with the goods!!!

[Malik Hairston]

I fucking love Danny Green, tbh..I've never seen a player so underrated by his own fanbase and even his own coach:lol..

:lmao hater

[Raven]

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE

[BatManu20]

Let's Goooooooooo!!!!!

[Mal]

Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[100%duncan]

PATTYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[playblair]

the green matched up with carter adjustment = :greedy................

[cjw]

Keep pushing up the lead on this thing so I can finally book my work trip down to Texas on Thursday around the playoffs.

[ElNono]

:wow 51 pts and still 8 mins to go

[Uriel]

:cry:cry:cry:cry:cry I love this team. So, so much. :cry:cry:cry:cry:cry

[Diego20]

Green looked like Jordan there tbh











not even close..

[BatManu20]

I fucking love Danny Green, tbh..I've never seen a player so underrated by his own fanbase and even his own coach:lol..

:lmao hater

The amount of hate Tony Parker receives is right up there tbh. Spoiled fan base tbh

[Arcadian]

Fuck yes. Spurs are back...

[Otaku]

Spurs are rolling. Vs the Blazers will be a hell of a series. :toast

[timtonymanu]

I fucking love Danny Green, tbh..I've never seen a player so underrated by his own fanbase and even his own coach:lol..

:lmao hater

Praises the real 1 trick pony Hooptie but shits on Danny Green even though he's the superior player. :lmao

[100%duncan]

I wanna cry tbh but then again it's still early in the 2nd

[hitmanyr2k]

Someone needs to take Dirk behind the arena and shoot him. Can't even stay in front of Danny Green's dribble drive?!?

[polandprzem]

nice lead

[jkid12456]

al of a sudden, patty mills haters out of sight *scans with binoculours"

[ernest787]

i have had such a crappy day. i needed this. thank you spurs.

[BackHome]

Man green actually taking it to the whole am I watching the Spurs game? The dude could be such a much better player if he would do more of that......Go Spurs!

[BatManu20]

So.. much.. time left...

[ace3g]

Time to bring back some classics

Now this is our fucking team.

[capek]

:ihit :ihit :ihit :ihit :ihit

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

I fucking love Danny Green, tbh..I've never seen a player so underrated by his own fanbase and even his own coach:lol..

:lmao hater

How quickly fans hate on the player who was amqIng last year. Its not like he lost all his talent and Pop has a way to getting his message sent.

[Baam]

That pass from Boris to Mills was sexy...

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Spurs have finally found their offensive groove

[spursparker9]

Who still remember Obi-Wan Kenobili from 2005???

[smaka]

al of a sudden, patty mills haters out of sight *scans with binoculours"


And you are still annoying

[TDfan2007]

Spurs basketball making a much needed appearance tonight. Amazing how much better we look when our guys play with fire and intensity.

[Capster]

That is what I'm talkin about!!!! Way to bury Mav's!!! LOL!!!

[UZER]

The crowd is finally bringing it

[TDomination]

24 pt lead still doesn't feel high enough. I want them to keep going at their throats and build this lead as high as they can!

[Beaverfuzz]

San Antonio will cool off and Mavs should heat up a little bit, but this is exactly where most of us expected this series to be.

Another 31+ minutes left.

[RD2191]

al of a sudden, patty mills haters out of sight *scans with binoculours"
mills still sucks.

[313]

Someone needs to take Dirk behind the arena and shoot him. Can't even stay in front of Danny Green's dribble drive?!?
:lmao

[Malik Hairston]

The Mavs have unraveled, tbh..

If you can't limit the Spurs passing game and the role players, you're going to get destroyed against this team..

[Richie]

Mills pressure on Harris has been great so far

[4001 STEREO SPUR]

Come on SPURS!!!!!!
Kick their fucking ass!!

GO!!! SPURS GO!!!

:flag:

[eric365]

I won't feel safe until a 40 points lead

[100%duncan]

Btw, ya'll should stop celebrating. Not yet.

[Beaverfuzz]

24 pt lead still doesn't feel high enough. I want them to keep going at their throats and build this lead as high as they can!


18 or higher at the half is just fine.

[Brazil]

Diaw !

[smaka]

Diaw 2.0

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Boris Diaw - Awesome step back!

[DatBoyGood]

HOW YOU FEEL D BLAIR?

[313]

Diaw with the Hakeem Olujuwan goods

[RD2191]

Game far from over.

[BatManu20]

How is that a foul on Patty Mills??

[testies]

DONT
PUT BELLI

DONT
PUT BELLI

DONT
PUT BELLI

[bobcatfan4life]

Mavs with only 3 timeouts

[BatManu20]

I won't feel safe until a 40 points lead

50 imo

[FaM0us Skins]

Diaw 2.0

[SpursOwn]

Haha fluke second chances still

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Blair with the brick :lol

[Cry Havoc]

Dammit. Don't take your foot off the gas, Spurs.

[lurker]

HOW YOU FEEL D BLAIR?
I hope none of y'all want Whataburger tonight because they're going to be out of everything.

[Raven]

green playing DPOY defence tbh

[smaka]

Lmao Manu

[ace3g]

also think this is the first time Green has worn the Gary Payton glove shoes

[Cry Havoc]

If Carter can't hit 3s though we'll be aight.

[Beaverfuzz]

Hmmm, looked clean by Kiwi

[Cry Havoc]

Here come the fucking refs. Touch fouls called on our end meanwhile Blair can strip Tony with no call.

[superjames1992]

Blair has had really quick hands in this series.

[BatManu20]

Refs starting to suck ass

[ElNono]

Spurs need to keep on scoring... no lead is safe with this team

[100%duncan]

How is that a foul

[Beaverfuzz]

Nice draw of the foul Patty, sit down Ellis!

[Cry Havoc]

3 on Ellis!!!!!!

[Brazil]

Good job Patty

[spurspokesman]

Spurs need to go for the throat

[smaka]

Patty with the goods

[BatManu20]

3rd on Ellis

[Cry Havoc]

Hahahaha we got a call there. Shitty whistle by the refs.

[TheRemix]

make your free throw/....

[MVPCues]

Should have been a no call there.

[Beaverfuzz]

STFU JVG, you f'n rag doll.

[superjames1992]

Bad call on Ellis tbh. Ball don't lie with the FT brick.

[Brazil]

That was not a fool but I will take it

[RD2191]

ROFL Westbrooks go to move and Mills does it and its a cheap play. :lolstfu VG

[timtonymanu]

Spurs need to keep on scoring... no lead is safe with this team

This, mentally we are only up 2.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Monta already in trouble.

[Uriel]

I normally like Vn Gundy, but he's really annoying me right now.

[100%duncan]

Ellis you fucking career loser

[Crookshanks]

Shut up JVG! Were you this vocal against the refs in the other games? Yes, these games could be called better, but if one team gets away with it, why shouldn't other teams try to take advantage?

[phxspurfan]

Good sign for the Spurs, everyone looks 100% into it

[testies]

we needed some home cooking though
the refs have been anti-spurs big time this series

[100%duncan]

lol van gundy

[cjw]

Mavs with only 3 timeouts

They have four I think despite what they show on the bottom of the screen - took their 20 this half as well as their full and two allocated timeouts. Will have just two in crunch time instead of the usual three. Will also have one more in each the third and fourth.

[Brazil]

wtf Calderon :lol

[spurspokesman]

Go for the kill spurs

[Cry Havoc]

ROFL Westbrooks go to move and Mills does it and its a cheap play. :lolstfu VG

Still a cheap play to draw a cheap foul. I hate it. Smart play by Patty if they're going to call it but Westbrook is a fucking bitch.

Of course, Patty doesn't do it 6 times a game for 12 free throws a game, so that's a big difference.

[Cry Havoc]

Shut up JVG! Were you this vocal against the refs in the other games? Yes, these games could be called better, but if one team gets away with it, why shouldn't other teams try to take advantage?

Gundy loves hating on the refs. Not just in our games, tbh.

[Crookshanks]

Wow - Spurs could easily have 70 points by half time. :wow

[Brazil]

How this is a fool ?

[spurspokesman]

Loving patty's hustle

[ballhog]

Refs gonna keep it close now

[RD2191]

Still a cheap play to draw a cheap foul. I hate it. Smart play by Patty if they're going to call it but Westbrook is a fucking bitch.

Of course, Patty doesn't do it 6 times a game for 12 free throws a game, so that's a big difference.
Agreed.

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

Splitter plays d on Dirk...foul

[BatManu20]

Refs are calling some BS touch fouls on the whoever's guarding Dirk. Ridiculous

[lurker]

"No Maverick has really had a good game today except for Blair."




Saddest words ever spoken

[EVAY]

Refs have decided to manage the Mavs back into this game by calling crap until the score gets closer so the network can call it a close and exciting game. B.S.

[Brazil]

Blair is gonna cry ? :lol

[ElNono]

This whistle has been OKC-level good for the Spurs, IMO

[superjames1992]

Van Gundy is the best announcer out there, tbh. :tu

[Kidd K]

Lmao, did those faggot ass announcers just mention the free throw disparity of this game? They never utter those words during Thunder games when the Thunder have double and triple the FTAs of the opposing team.

[Brazil]

"No Maverick has really had a good game today except for Blair."




Saddest words ever spoken

:lol

[The_Coyote]

It's funny how much more honest we all are about bad calls on both sides when we're up by >20 points.

[jkid12456]

Patty defence has been very good. underrated!

[100%duncan]

Bl:cryir

[davidbowie]

We should be up 50

[313]

"No Maverick has really had a good game today except for Blair."




Saddest words ever spoken:lol I thought I heard him wrong

[TDfan2007]

Why aren't we going into Timmy?

[Cry Havoc]

This whistle has been OKC-level good for the Spurs, IMO

Yeah we've gotten a few calls for sure. That tech on Parker though was pretty ridiculous.

I'll take it. The refs made sure to hold us down in Game 6. I'd rather have even officiating obviously.

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Spurs are the beneficiaries of some okc level home cooking at the line tonight. So even though that play wasn't a foul by tiago we still have the overall advantage.

[Crookshanks]

Spurs have to stay aggressive. They're easily winning the freethrow battle right now, but we don't want the Mavs to start a parade to the line in the 2nd half.

[TE]

Lmao, did those faggot ass announcers just mention the free throw disparity of this game? They never utter those words during Thunder games when the Thunder have double and triple the FTAs of the opposing team.
They also took time to analyze a foul call the Spurs received...you can't make this shit up :lmao

[testies]

make it a 30 point game by half time please

ANTI-JYNX

[TDfan2007]

Spurs getting a very favorable whistle, but they're also killing Dallas in every way, so...

[Malik Hairston]

Spurs have definitely received a kind whistle, tbh, but the only egregious calls, off the top of my head, were the Mills foul, the Blair flagrant and Calderon's foul call on the Parker missed layup..

[Cry Havoc]

https://twitter.com/NOTNBATonight/status/463052911422242817/photo/1

lololol

[cjw]

This whistle has been OKC-level good for the Spurs, IMO

They may just be learning how to draw fouls after watching tape on how basically every defender on Dallas jumps up on every pump fake or shot.

[spurspokesman]

Used to seeing spurs blow leads like this. Hopefully they finish the kill

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Reffing has been awful this game , mostly in favor of the spurs.

[Kidd K]

They also took time to analyze a foul call the Spurs received...you can't make this shit up :lmao

lol! Yeah they did. You NEVER see them question the career-long ticky tack calls Durant and Westbrook get all the time.

[Beaverfuzz]

TONY!!!

[Cry Havoc]

Parker just knifing through bitches.

[Beaverfuzz]

TONY TONY!

[Brazil]

:lol Parker going at it

[r0drig0lac]

parkerrrr

[Malik Hairston]

Dirk/Blair in the game is a red carpet to the rim, tbh..

Poor coaching from Carlisle, he got too greedy with Blair's anomalies in games 4 and 6..

[Mal]

Da fuk is Shane Larkin doing on the floor. Carlilise officialy lost the plot

[100%duncan]

MVParker

[Beaverfuzz]

THROW IT DOWN KIWI!

[Cry Havoc]

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!

[ace3g]

Kapow!!!

[Brazil]

But but Parker never pass the ball to Kawi :cry

[spurspokesman]

Lovely

[313]

:cry Parker doesn't pass to leonard

[BatManu20]

Kawhiiiiiiiiii

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

I want this to be a 50 point win

[testies]

DAT SPLITTER D!!

[superjames1992]

The Big Three with the goods in big games per par. :tu

[SpurPadre]

Kawhi with the kapow!

[100%duncan]

WHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

I guess Cuban was keen to have his own version of Cory Joseph.

[smaka]

Tony being Tony, not Enrique tonight. Good job!

[timtonymanu]

Dirk/Blair in the game is a red carpet to the rim, tbh..

Poor coaching from Carlisle, he got too greedy with Blair's anomalies in games 4 and 6..

I was hoping he would continue to ride Blair. Doing that so far.

[Malik Hairston]

Hopefully this is the Tony Parker that shows up for the rest of the playoffs, tbh..

[lurker]

I want Joey Crawford :cry

[RD2191]

Watch us blow this:lol

[TDfan2007]

Tony and Manu have been amazing so far. Also, Tiago is defending Dirk better than anyone I've ever seen.

[TE]

Tony finally playing like he should've all series long tbh. Nobody on the Mavs can pick him up one on one...Marion bothers him but nobody else has the footspeed, length or defensive skills to guard Parker one on one...

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Not over! Don't count out Dallas!

[ducks]

hopefully blair will not hurt spurs player

[Baam]

Kiwibunga

[testies]

PORTLAND TEAM TERRIFIED RIGHT NOW

[Beaverfuzz]

Tony and Manu have been amazing so far. Also, Tiago is defending Dirk better than anyone I've ever seen.

Helps when Ellis has been on the bench. That's the big key of today.

[Capster]

WAY TO GO SPURS!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!:downspin::downspin::downspin:

[TE]

Hopefully this is the Tony Parker that shows up for the rest of the playoffs, tbh..
Gonna be tough when Batum guards him all game long

[Kidd K]

Reffing has been awful this game , mostly in favor of the spurs.

We've got a few calls but the Mavs hack a LOT on layups to "prevent easy baskets", and they have also gotten away with a couple kicked balls that they got steals on too.

Tbh, have any of Splitter's or Parker's FTAs all series NOT been on hard fouls or hacking fouls? Most of Duncan's were off hacks and wrap ups too. They foul on purpose, we almost never foul. Of course we will get more calls in general, but no one on the Spurs are getting these ticky tack calls all game like Ellis has gotten all series imo.

We're up big because we're shooting 70%, not because of the refs.

[Crookshanks]

Spurs are shooting a blistering 72%! No way a team can beat you when you're shooting like that. :flag:

[r0drig0lac]

lol mavs
