My biggest worry about Indy on sunday....

[Amuseddaysleeper]

is the early start time


i find games where spurs have to start before 3 pm west coast time they seem to struggle cuz of the time difference


does indiana have the same time zone as texas??

[thekingrobert]

yeah same time zone i believe

[Horry For 3!]

Indiana has been playing really good lately, Stephen Jackson is on fire

[TDMVPDPOY]

stop man i make love to pressure, i dont thiink JONEAL is playin or is he?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

stop man i make love to pressure, i dont thiink JONEAL is playin or is he?

JONEAL is out longer than mike tyson in his last fight

OH SNAP!


but in all seriousness, J Oneal may not even return this season! yet alone this sunday!

[Solid D]

does indiana have the same time zone as texas??

No.

[TDMVPDPOY]

we only have to stop steph jackson from doin his thing and peja will be ginos/bowens biatch no matter what. This will be an easy win, NEXT!

[Solid D]

Indy's playing well the last couple of games. It's seldom easy on the road. At least the Spurs will be somewhat used to Eastern time zone on the early start Sunday.

[exstatic]

No.

Sometimes. Most of Indiana does NOT do Daylight savings time, so part of the time, they are CST, and part of the time they are EST.

True. I have a couple of people I know in Indiana and have to keep track of that time thing when I call.

It's midnight in Texas and 1 AM in Indy now, though.

[Trainwreck2100]

Watch out for Jasterificus.

[MI21]

Jack had 30 points on 10 shots today.

[mavsfan1000]

Yeah I could see the spurs lose. They are due for a loss.

[Darrin]

Indy obviously has no one who can guard Tim Duncan, but they are suddenly large on the perimeter with Peja, S-Jax, and Jasikevicius. They do a great job of spreading the floor, especially when Freddie Jones and Jasikevicius can get in the lane. The Spurs will need to find Foster and Pollard or the Pacers will be all over the boards.

My Prediction - 85-81 Indiana.

BTW - Jasikevicius is the first Euro name that made my head spin. It's replaced Tskitishvili as the hardest name in the NBA to spell.

[polandprzem]

Indy obviously has no one who can guard Tim Duncan

Foster and Pollard can do a good job against Duncan . I remember that Foster was giving him a lot of trouble.

Looks like Indy with Peja and without JO are finding some good ofense and that helps them winning the games.
No worry about Pacers. They played realy good the previous game that's why they won't do tha again next game ahnd that will be spurs :D

All of my concern is about spurs being sleepy in the afternoon games. They always had a trouble to get the rythym. (ex. Denver game)


Personaly and indywidualy I hope Timmy will feel better and starts to dominate cause I would like to see him in the AlNBA first squad. (Nowitzki, LeBron, Brand)



Ps. Does Timmy had an Virgin Islad citizenship from the very begining? He commmited to the USA citizenship back when he played for the US national team. (He's got both then I guess). But are those two citizenships seprate? Because tha VI are the part of USA ???

[mavsfan1000]

Yeah I am predicting a pacers win also. 95-89.

[Rummpd]

"Yeah I could see the spurs lose. They are due for a loss."


Classic Mavs fan, they should just realize that ultimetely their team cannot keep up with a motivated and becoming increasingly healthy Spurs team, and Dallas is mortal again.


Spurs 105
Pacers 93

Duncan breaks out without O'Neal - who the heck is going to stop him?

[SenorSpur]

No way. Spurs win this one. Book it!

[WalterBenitez]

Plz do not underestimate Indy, Peja is doing well, also Jax, I think we'll need TP going to te paint more than lately :D; but I don't see Spurs losing ...That game will be in our Natl TV I don't wanna see Spurs loosing :rolleyes

[ducks]

bowen or manu shuts down stephen jackson

[TDMVPDPOY]

can jax make love to spurs pressure?

[exstatic]

Yeah I could see the spurs lose. They are due for a loss.
Don't be bitter. :lol

[Joepa]

We got this one on the road. Road games might as well be home games for us right now. The spurs are warming up like they always do around the All-Star break. Timmy should be over his flu by then, and he's going off for 30 against the inferior Pacers' front line. We win this game just like we beat a "really hot" New Jersey team that had won 12 in a row at home.

[1Parker1]

Haven't the Spurs lost all their Sunday games on ABC this season? :lol

[SAGambler]

Spurs should take this one easily...

Don't look for Jax to have a huge game... Spurs know all his weaknesses...

Has Peja ever had a great game against the Spurs...? Don't remember it if he did.

If Tim can limit his "bathroom trips" to 3 or 4, he should have a 20 plus game..

Tp will drive the lane consistently....

Spurs by 14....

[exstatic]

Tony comes up large. Neither Pollard nor Foster are classified as shotblockers, so he should be able to drive at will, and kick or finish. Tony and Manu will live in the paint.

[1Parker1]

Now the Spurs problem is, who should they put Bruce on...Jackson or Peja? I think Pop will most likely put him on Peja, but Spurs have to be careful not to let Jackson get hot.

[Budkin]

My Prediction - 85-81 Indiana.

Pistons and Mavs fans predicting a Spurs loss? Shocking. :rolleyes

[efrem1]

Give him a ton of Imodium and he will score 30+ :smokin

[Slomo]

If Tim can limit his "bathroom trips" to 3 or 4, he should have a 20 plus game..

I just hope his health will improve by Sunday. If it doesn't we may have a serious problem...

Seriously, a Pistons fan rooting for the Pacers? I think you're reading too much bias into my opinion. :)

Dude, if you haven't noticed yet, it's not the quality of the defender that stops duncan, it's himself.


It's not as simple as, he's not playing Joneal so he'll have a big game.

Whether it's the worst defender or the best defender, Duncan just doesn't put up big games anymore(this year)

[50 cent]

does indiana have the same time zone as texas??
Yes and no.

When we fall back, Indy stays the same. When we Spring forward, they still stay the same so they are the same time zone as Texas when in Daylight savings.

[romsey31]

Yes and no.

Tomorrows game will be a win win situation for me. If Indy wins...great!! If San Antonio wins it helps in there chase 2 take the no 1 record from Detroit. We are already not in the race, so I just want us 2 get in the playoffs and for JO to get healthy..

Pacers win.......

[spurster]

This game is too early for the Spurs and the Pacers are hot, but it's part of the Rodeo road trip where everywhere else is now home for the Spurs.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

I'm excited to see Granger play against the Spurs.




Spurs by 5 -- 95-90.

[ducks]

Jackson Will Try To Do To Much And Choke Against Spurs
Manu Will Shut His Ass Down
And Bowen Will Be On Peja
Manu Can Handle That Jackson Person

And If Need Be Peja Will Lose All Confidence And Then Bowen Can Cause Jackson To Get Thrown Out Of The Game

[sanman53]

Our Sunday percentages are much lower than other days:
3 games

77.0 points per game
.421 FG%
.293 3Point%
36.0 Rebounds
16.7 Assistss
5.7 Steals
2.7 Blocks
16.0 TO's

The three games were against Troit, Nuggs, and NO, all three were losses.

GO SPURS GO!

[efrem1]

Criswell predicts...Spurs 89-81 and a sweep of the Rodeo road trip.

[Phenomanul]

If there is anything to worry about it is the fact that both the Pistons and the Mavs lost at their first attempt to 40 wins this season by laying eggs.....

Call it coincidental???

[manu]

we will win as long as manu does a 360 one-handed windmill of the backboard tomahawk, oh yeah and between the legs too

[HB22inSA]

Well, I've predicted a Spurs loss in every game so far, and they've gone 5-0.

So...

Spurs 69
Pacers 132

Larry Bird will come in in Garbage time and score 15 points.

[rwb]

I always worry when the Spurs play on ABC, because they do tend to lose. Having said that, I still anticipate a win.
