Its like practice shooting for them.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

It's doable but tough - we NEED that 4th quarter D from game 6.

[ducks]

Manu Time

[ABDENOUR POWER]

The Mavs really need to focus if their gonna win this, they're letting fouls called in the Spurs favor get to them.

I am 99% sure that the Spurs will win this. They have home court and are simply too good.

[Beer is Good]

Now's the Time. Win.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I dont know what more this is to say....BELIEVE!

GO SPURS GO!!!

[midgetonadonkey]

i knew the spurs was gonna choke

Someone failed English class.

[ca®lo]

were within striking distance..

ONE GOAL AT A TIME.. TAKE IT EASY SPURS

GO SPURS GO!!!

[Supergirl]

Spurs have reduced the Mavs scoring by at least 7 each quarter (37, 27, 20) - they should be able to tighten up and keep the mavs to under 15 in the 5th and close this game out. GO SPURS GO>

[Obi_Wan_Ginobili]

The law of average's caught up the the Mavs. Now its time for the law of Ginobili to be laid down.

[Trifecta]

The Spurs need ice in their veins this last qtr!!!!

[Jimcs50]

Literally, our entire season will now come down to this 4th quarter!! Come on Spurs, play like it!

BTW, Barry sucking tonight! Pop needs to tell him he'll be traded if we lose tonight :lol

Winning time!!!!

Spurs will win 4th Q by 10 pts to win the game.

[Tek_XX]

Crap. Nice move by Dirk on the rebound.

[Leetonidas]

[ballhog]

C'mon boys, Tim can't win this one alone. Step up ASAP.

[happytoplay1]

Dirk over the back and gets the foul. WTF?

[Leetonidas]

Almost another And 1 for Tim. C'mon guys, we have to hit our shots.

[kiriti]

[ballhog]

Foul out big boys. Who cares what Cuban thinks.

[strangeweather]

Refs with some "make up" calls. Have to try and throw a couple on the Spurs now so Cuban doesn't cry when they lose.

Fat chance.

[RashoFan]

[1Parker1]

This series is making me age a lot quicker.......:depressed

[yavozerb]

I almost wanna lose so I dont have to see this fuckin small ball bullshit!!!!!!!!!!1

[ballhog]

Dirk over the back again. Is he allowed to do that?

[Doc Jerome]

Dirk gets the foul call w 3 spurs around him. WTF, grab the rebound.

[strangeweather]

small ball = no rebound

Not that long ago, rebounds were 25-15 Mavs. Now they're 31-25 Mavs. Spurs are doing fine.

Edit: oops.

[WALLACE POWER]

brick bowen is stinkin it up from 3

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

score : 94-91 Mavs

[yavozerb]

Dirk is 7 ft, of course he can out rebound our next tallest player at 6'7

[ballhog]

Where's Horry for those 3's? Bowen can't hit shit.

[Leetonidas]

I almost wanna lose so I dont have to see this fuckin small ball bullshit!!!!!!!!!!1

Nazr owned the Suns so I doubt that'll happen if we do get past the Mavs and play them. And it definetly will not be small ball versus the Clippers.

[AMOS7]

Dirk over the back again. Is he allowed to do that?

Don't pull the ref card now, Spurs have shot far more FT's.

[Melmart1]

Spurs tie with five minutes left, start pulling away with three minutes left. GO SPURS GO!!!

[Dre_7]

I almost wanna lose so I dont have to see this fuckin small ball bullshit!!!!!!!!!!1

You mean the small ball bullshit that brought the Spurs back from a 3-1 defict to force game 7???

[~Sweetmelody~]

Come On Spurs!!!!

Go Spurs Go!!!

I Believe!!!!

[RashoFan]

This series is making me age a lot quicker.......:depressed
But your Mojo still looks FABULOUS..... :D

[Chris]

[Doc Jerome]

Go the the hole!
Go the the hole!
Go the the hole!
Go the the hole!
Go the the hole!
Go the the hole!

[yavozerb]

Dirk should not = rebound

[The-Wizz]

Put Horry On!!!!

[Chris]

Cmon SPURS I believe in the power of BRAVATARS! Win one for the hooters!

[1Parker1]

But your Mojo still looks FABULOUS..... :D

:lol It'll only be fabulous if the Spurs win tonight!

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

Give the ball to Manu and Tim, have Finley and Horry in there for the killer 3. Play Spurs defense if the refs allow it.

Go Spurs Go! Believe!

[milkyway21]

wow:wow the new server is working great !

a lot more faster now...

thanks TimVP/Kori :worthy:

[strangeweather]

Spurs tie with five minutes left, start pulling away with three minutes left. GO SPURS GO!!!

LOL If it takes us to 0:01, I'll take it!

[Trifecta]

I cannot see the game -- is it a timeout?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Go SPURS GO!!! Come on you guys can do this! BELIEVE...

[RashoFan]

Cmon SPURS I believe in the power of BRAVATARS! Win one for the hooters!
Well said Chris :tu

[Doc Jerome]

It's coming down to the wire. Spurs have to get over the himp and take the lead.

[Bob Lanier]

Ginobili has to shoot.

Dirk = parade to the FT line for the next 6 minutes, to Kerr's delight.

[AMOS7]

I don't like the Spurs shot selection, Bowen does NOT penetrate well.

[mattyc]

Why is Bruce taking shots?

[Tek_XX]

Spurs can't put it together than fuck em.

[Leetonidas]

Why the fuck are the Spurs dicking around with it? We don't have that kinda time! STOP PASSING UP OPEN THREES SO BRUCE CAN MISS!

[strangeweather]

I don't like the Spurs shot selection, Bowen does NOT penetrate well.

He has to force them to cover him, or they won't.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Nooooooo, I lost the HD feed.......!!!!!!!!!!

[Trifecta]

I don't like the Spurs shot selection, Bowen does NOT penetrate well.

Exactly -- that's not Bruce's game!

[Doc Jerome]

Bowen has to make a play when he has the ball. He is shit tonight. I can't believe it.

[kiriti]

we are down by 5--with 4 mintues...next minute we have to tie up..and start taking the lead

[Nero]

Bowen needs to go. He's scared to shoot and you can see that with all his 3s being way off. Bring Barry in.

[yavozerb]

Nobody wants to shoot the 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ducks]

Why Is Bowen Shooting
Manu,tp Duncan Horry

[Tek_XX]

Bowen has taken to many shots

[kiriti]

just bring the ball to Duncan..

[strangeweather]

Spurs can't put it together than fuck em.

Screw that -- the Spurs have played a hell of a series.

Believe.

[~Sweetmelody~]

Let's Go Spurs!!!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

belieevee....

[iflyabeech]

I am feeling it. . . .

[yavozerb]

Margin for error keeps going down by the second

[AMOS7]

Spurs have a few offensive options.

Always go to Duncan, whether it's for him to score, or for him to kick it out to an open player.

Ginobili will be there, as will Finley, and Parker.

[Duncanoypi]

God bless spurs...

[ballhog]

Time to hit some shots or go home.

[Doc Jerome]

Time is running out, and there is not another quarter in this game to play. Do it now or it's over.

[1Parker1]

Spurs can't get a lead. :depressed

[adonis827]

let's go spurs!

[RashoFan]

Nooooooo, I lost the HD feed.......!!!!!!!!!!
That SUX I hope you get it back sooooo!!!!

[AMOS7]

Time to hit some shots or go home.

STAY home. ;)

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Spurs can't get a lead. :depressed


Kind of feels like the Pistons/Cavs G5...

[ballhog]

Can we go to a bigger lineup now?
