[Horry For 3!]

Starting five didn't play worth shit. Pop was pissed off and set them.

[Trainwreck2100]

Pop brings in the starters now maybe they will play after spotting the Hawks 15 points

[Mavs<Spurs]

Al Harrington scored 22 points in the 1st quarter....thats fucked up.

[boutons]

Spurs suck
what bunch of dysfunctional fakers.

We got Nowitski'd
We got Arenas'd
Now wegetting Harrington'd

[Trainwreck2100]

2nd quarter, the quarter of Rasho

[Knoxville Spur]

Bad defense but Harrington is on fire. Our rebounding is awful. Where is Horry, he might be our best matchup with Al.

[Mavs<Spurs]

Starting five didn't play worth shit. Pop was pissed off and set them.

Lack of effort?

I'm working on a presentation/ project for school and only partly watching the game.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Spurs suck
what bunch of dysfunctional fakers.

We got Nowitski'd
We got Arenas'd
Now wegetting Harrington'd


spurs have always let single players dominate them

at least we dont have to worry about NVE anymore

[duncan2k5]

thats when you know things are bad...when we are worrying about Al harrington

[carina_gino20]

:bang

[Trainwreck2100]

thats when you know things are bad...when we are worrying about Al harrington

[carina_gino20]

Tim Duncan dunk assisted by MAnu

[hussker]

can someone who is watching the game say whats going on? play by play etc?

Just close your eyes and think this....
Spurs run hari-kiri down the court, but Harrington scores at the other end. Do that about 80 more times and I think you will get it

[Mavs<Spurs]

Someone please tell me why Duncan is not dominating that no name white guy guarding him

It'll have to be someone a lot smarter than me cuz I sure can't figure that one out.

[Mavs<Spurs]

Why are we fouling instead of playing defense?

[duncan2k5]

if we lose that would be embarassing...

[carina_gino20]

rediculous...Spurs will win by 9. Guaranteed.

Don't care if we do come back and blow them out. Spotting a 13 point lead in the 1st quarter and letting Harrington, HARRINGTON! go off for 22 on their asses is a freakin' embarassment!

[Manu20]

Childress has an ugly shot.

Spurs only down by 2 :elephant

[Knoxville Spur]

Oberto did a between the legs pass behind himself to NVE. Nick drove the lane and missed, then Oberto putback. It not was one of the better looking passes I have seen.

[bendmz]

Oberto, Manu........ The Latino Twins

[bendmz]

Bowen has shut Harrington down!!!!!!

[Knoxville Spur]

Duncan fouls Johnson, make them both.
Kick to Bowen, but they are not giving him that corner jumper, nice D Hawks.
Parker fouled, in penalty, makes both, tied again at 48.

[milkyway21]

[carina_gino20]

Manu dunk not counted..goes to FT line

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Tony making both FTs

[Rummpd]

Manu gets a dunk taken away but goes to line and makes them to tie the game. He is truly playing well again.

Meanwhile Bowen has taught Mr. Harrington some junk yard defense!

[carina_gino20]

Go Nazr!

[Knoxville Spur]

Stoudamire jumper good, then TP drives and dish to Nazr for the dunk.

[Manu20]

At the half game tie 52-52.

[milkyway21]

Rasho has not scored a pt yet.

folks, I'm going to lose that Jersey lottery:cry

[sandman]

Way to claw their way from pathetically underachieving to moderately competing against the worst team in the league.

[Mavs<Spurs]

In this game, it's particularly evident that Tony is consciously being careful with the ball, not forcing something that's not there.

[bendmz]

is Joe Johnson the same one that was suppose to beat the Spurs in the confrence finals in Phoenix?

[Mavs<Spurs]

Way to claw their way from pathetically underachieving to moderately competing against the worst team in the league.

2nd worst team in the league.

[thispego]

hakws fucking suck

what were the spurs doing in the 1st?????

[Knoxville Spur]

Pistons up by 9, 4 mins left, were down by 10 at the half to lame Boston.

[Trainwreck2100]

He will end the game with 24 points

[Mavs<Spurs]

Harrington owns Duncan?

[Knoxville Spur]

what were the spurs doing in the 1st?????

Offense was not aggressive, TP was not driving like normal. Rebounding was poor. Matchup problems with Al Harrington, solved by Bowen.

[DieMrBond]

Way to claw their way from pathetically underachieving to moderately competing against the worst team in the league.

Isnt Toronto the worst team in the league?

[sandman]

I've not been able to "see" them play this year. I hear a lot of talk about how much better Tony looks. Accurate?

[Mavs<Spurs]

Pistons up by 9, 4 mins left, were down by 10 at the half to lame Boston.

Go Nuggets!

[milkyway21]

2nd worst team in the league.who's the worst? Dallas? oppps :oops I mean Hornets? They're actually nipping Miami right now.

Or is it the Bobcats?

[Knoxville Spur]

I don't think Harrington scored a point in the 2nd quarter.
Spurs outrebounded 17-13 in first half.

[Mavs<Spurs]

I've not been able to "see" them play this year. I hear a lot of talk about how much better Tony looks. Accurate?

I would say yes and although I like Tony's game, I am not now and never have been blind to areas he needs to improve.

Tony is taking better care of the ball. He is getting to the rim against everybody and finishing or dishing the rock out. He has worked on his shooting which seems moderately better. He is playing better than any other Spur right now which I never thought I would say.

He is very aggressive in his offense. He is a team leader. He is producing at crunch time. He is shooting the highest percentage of anybody playing his position.

[sandman]

2nd worst team in the league.

winless is winless, no matter how many losses. one team has just had more chances to remain winless.

[Mavs<Spurs]

who's the worst? Dallas? oppps :oops I mean Hornets? They're actually nipping Miami right now.

Or is it the Bobcats?

I was being facetious about the Spurs, given the way that we were playing.

Hawks are probably not as good as the Hornets who are not as good as the Bobcats.

[milkyway21]

I don't think Harrington scored a point in the 2nd quarter.
Spurs outrebounded 17-13 in first half.let's just put it this way, Harrington became the Arenas of the Spurs-Wizards game, who just got beaten by LeBron tonight who struggled against the Spurs last wk.

:smokin

[Mavs<Spurs]

Go Nuggets beat Alice in Wonderland!!!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Pistons up by 9, 4 mins left, were down by 10 at the half to lame Boston.



Pistons win 115-100

UNDEFEATED!!

[bendmz]

Piston's day is coming......

[1Parker1]

God, are the Pistons that good or have they just not played many contending teams yet?

:wow

[Knoxville Spur]

I've got tix for Hawks-Spurs in Atlanta Dec 10!

[Pistons < Spurs]

God, are the Pistons that good or have they just not played many contending teams yet?

:wow

Little bit of both. They've been GREAT in stretches...especially at the end of games...but we also haven't played any of the better teams yet w/ the exception of the Suns.

But winning 7 consecutive games in the NBA is never easy regardless of the competition.

[Knoxville Spur]

Nice running banker Manu, trying to draw foul
TP steal then does the same thing as Manu, with the foul but misses FT, 56-52 good guys.

Spurs lead 74-61, Hawks reeling!

[Mavs<Spurs]

Little bit of both. They've been GREAT in stretches...especially at the end of games...but we also haven't played any of the better teams yet w/ the exception of the Suns.

But winning 7 consecutive games in the NBA is never easy regardless of the competition.

Pistons are definitely the best team in the league at this point and will certainly be in the mix at the end.

[milkyway21]

Harrington Just 1 Pt After Halftime ?

[Mavs<Spurs]

Nuggets are making roadkill out of Alice in Wonderland.

Just out of curiosity, anyone here concerned about Duncan shooting only .500 fro the line tonight? (1-2) :spin

[carina_gino20]

Why taking out Manu when he is making every shot and gaining his confidence back?

Pop's trying to limit Manu's minutes down to 30.

[Knoxville Spur]

Duncan from 16 feet jumper good from Parker.
Lue blocked by Horry, Duncan nice outlet to Sanders who is fouled hard but is fine.

[dknights411]

Sanders and Rasho put the Spurs over the century mark!

[Knoxville Spur]

Rasho wide open for a jam but throws in the girliest looking 1 foot hook shot ever!

Rasho on the board

[dknights411]

Man, and I thought the Spurs had FT issues...

[yeahone]

yeap,,,v bookie for me
go manu go go go

[Mavs<Spurs]

I guess we know what happened.

The Spurs wanted to spot the Hawks some points so that it would not be as bad a beating as it could have been.

[Knoxville Spur]

Our bench is lighting them up, showing our superior depth.

Bench also did a nice job earlier when Pop pulled the entire starting unit due to their lackluster play.

[Rummpd]

Spurs show that they might not have so many reg season stupid loss disasters as last year dominating this game after a foul start.

[milkyway21]

wow Oberto is hot!

8 & 7:wow

[milkyway21]

Josh Smith is embarrasing us w/ his 5 blocks:D

[dknights411]

Rasho with range?!? :wtf

[milkyway21]

the Slovenians...
SA 18.0 Rasho Nesterovic made Jump Shot (4 PTS), Assist Beno Udrih (3 AST)

[carina_gino20]

He'll prob end up with 24 at the end of the game

GENIUS

[DieMrBond]

yay, now rasho only has to score 8 more points in this game and i might have a chance of winning that jersey! Damn that average of 12 points a game i was stuck with!

[Horry For 3!]

He'll prob end up with 24 at the end of the game
Close. 23 pts :lmao

[milkyway21]

i still need 14 more pts to get that jersey:D
kind of impossible for me esp. Oberto is playing good right now. :depressed


BTW, the Nuggets can't still hit from the arc: 1-8?

[Knoxville Spur]

hmmm... I thought Tony had 4 steals, and Manu had 3

I'm just looking at NBA.COM game summary.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

oh

[Manu20]

Interesting stat, no Hawk had 2 or more assists.
As a team they had a total of 8 assists!

[boutons]

Hawks should pay everybody, and cancel their season.

OUCH. Thats horrible.

[beirmeistr]

Great second half by the Spurs. Manu starting to get his explosiveness back. Duncan shot very well, although he failed to get a double double. I liked the way Parker balanced his scoring and his distributing the ball. Oberto looked like he has some confidence. Bowen was magnificent shutting down harrington. Whever guarded Johnson must have done a good job too.

[milkyway21]

Duncan shot very well, although he failed to get a double double. 11-14 = 78.5% is good enough for me...

knock on wood(again).***

[smeagol]

Why the hell if Ocrappo in.
8 and 8.

You should be shutting your trap right about now.

[milkyway21]

Bowen shut out Harrington in the 2nd half. this is really huge for the Spurs.

Now, Bowen shld prepare for his next assignment-TMac. He's back and caused problem with the Wolves.

We don't want TMac to abuse us in the last 35 minutes of the game just like last yr. That would be a disaster-watching the playback over & over again on NBA Jam & ESPN.

[T Park]

8 and 8.

Its the Atlanta freakin Hawks.

Chill out Argentina, lets see him do this against someone worth a crap.

BTW,

if someone could let him know, if you JUMP everytime, you CAN rebound.

Can't rebound flat flooted.
