Memphis vs. San Antonio Jan. 7 -- Game Blog

[ducks]

Houston 88
Minnesota 88
End 4th

[1Parker1]

Oh Shit, Where was this Horry against the Mavs? :wtf

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

wow, Horry is making alot of you eat crow :lol

[CubanMustGo]

mike finley with 6 rebounds impressive

and three turnovers, so basically 3 rebounds. :spin

See how stupid that sounds? You're just being a :donkey

[doldrums]

3 turnovers and 4 steals
so basically one steal
wow :spin
I'll take 21 points and 4 steals in 3 quarters against his 3 to's (2 of which were offensive foul calls which means he's playing aggressively). Others are afraid to penetrate the lane(see the rest of the team except Parker, and horry for today only)

[ducks]

Ducks thinks he has a personality by being a Manu hater. To each his own, but it makes you look more foolish Ducks.

funny
spurstalk.com
most think you have to worship manu
and if you like tp you are in that member of the church
and everyone bashes you

[doldrums]

:lmao :lmao :lmao
and three turnovers, so basically 3 rebounds. :spin

See how stupid that sounds? You're just being a :donkey

[1Parker1]

:lol I like the little tag teaming and assisting Horry and Finley are doing for eachother.

[ducks]

maybe that artcile in the paper was to light a fire under horry's ass
and horry wants to play not sit

[1Parker1]

wow, Horry is making alot of you eat crow :lol

Not really. If you've seen him play this entire season so far, you'd understand. :lol

they're bashing you because you sound like an idiot.

[sa_butta]

Oh Shit, Where was this Horry against the Mavs? :wtfThis is the Grizz we are talking about here.

[sa_butta]

I know we are up pretty big here, but why so many 3's.

[ducks]

and three turnovers, so basically 3 rebounds. :spin

See how stupid that sounds? You're just being a :donkey

I like players who can play and not get paid to watch
and not do something mentally late in the game to cost my team a title

I wanted manu to win the finals mvp when the spurs won it all against the pistons
however he has not been the same since but some here think he is even better

[doldrums]

:lmao :lmao :lmao
Actually Manu is the only Spur today with more steals than to's. OK, l won't harp on this topic anymore

[sa_butta]

Its good to see us getting some rebounds. We couldnt get shit in the Mavs game. Alot of 1 and done.

[Tek_XX]

more points for manu

[1Parker1]

This is the Grizz we are talking about here.

:lol I wouldn't knock on them. They've managed to hold duncan to single digits....

[Spurs Brazil]

Another TO...

[ducks]

they're bashing you because you sound like an idiot.

I'll spare you the great comeback

[ducks]

with tp out
why does duncan had 12 shots
NICE JOB BENO!

[sa_butta]

:lol I wouldn't knock on them. They've managed to hold duncan to single digits....I would not credit most of that to their D. More of Duncan just missing shots and not being aggressive. How many times has he been to the free throw line today??

[VaSpursFan]

bonner for 3

[VaSpursFan]

manu playing a really smart gamer

[sa_butta]

Better FT shooting today.

[ducks]

5:05 SA - M. Ginobili missed the second free throw

[Tek_XX]

Ducks is so right about Manu

[sa_butta]

Ginobili has gone mad.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu 3333333333333333333333333333333333

[doldrums]

5:05 SA - M. Ginobili missed the second free throw

but make a fg and a 3 over the next minte and 1 half

[1Parker1]

Ginobili is sick. 5-7 from three point land. I think he's totaled something like 75 points these past 3 games.

[ducks]

manu going off today
and he gets major props here
when tp does no one says a thing

[sa_butta]

Manu has more assists than both of our pg's right now.
pg's 0
Manu 3.

[doldrums]

Manu is 8-13 from the field and 5-7 from 3 pt

[1Parker1]

I think it's safe to say the Spurs 3 game losing streak is finally over. :clap

[CubanMustGo]

Ginobili is sick. 5-7 from three point land. I think he's totaled something like 75 points these past 3 games.

Yeah but he probably had something like 7 TO's and missed 4 FTs so he sucks.

[sa_butta]

James White fans here you go.

[ducks]

manu has as many shots as duncan
and when tp has that many
he gets bashed but not manu

[Tek_XX]

Ducks are you watching this

[sa_butta]

Are you kidding me?

[sa_butta]

Captain INSAINO.

[Spurs Brazil]

Another Manu 33333333333333333333

[doldrums]

Manu is 8-13 from the field and 5-7 from 3 pt

eh make it 10 -15 from the field and 6-6 from 3 pt and 5 steals. I can't keep up 34 pts in 28 minutes

[fred33]

the last 3 game it was not the big three the problem was ALL OTHER PLAYERS OF THE TEAM

[ducks]

and now manu is padding his stats
but if tp did that late in the game he would get called out here

[ata]

Manu has more assists than both of our pg's right now.
pg's 0
Manu 3.
Only (!) Spur without assist is Vaughn. Beno has 5, and last time I checked, Beno was PG.

Edit: Sorry, make that 6 assist (for 2nd Manu's 3 in the row)

[1Parker1]

manu has as many shots as duncan
and when tp has that many
he gets bashed but not manu

Ducks, please stop. I may have to kick you out of the Church of Tony for how crazy you're sounding...:lol

[Tek_XX]

And the crowd has left the building

[doldrums]

eh make it 10 -15 from the field and 6-6 from 3 pt and 5 steals. I can't keep up 34 pts in 28 minutes

of course I meant 6-8 from 3 pt land

[1Parker1]

the last 3 game it was not the big three the problem was ALL OTHER PLAYERS OF THE TEAM

True.
Horry and Finley finally decided to show up.

[sa_butta]

Only (!) Spur without assist is Vaughn. Beno has 5, and last time I checked, Beno was PG.

Edit: Sorry, make that 6 assist (for 2nd Manu's 3 in the row)my bad.

We should all be super-proud of the Spurs for beating the worst team in the league. What an accomplishment.

[Tek_XX]

Spurs back on track for now

At least they got Gasol back.

MANU with a HUGE game

[sa_butta]

I will never use that damn CBS shit again for stats, they suck.

[angel_luv]

The team is going to rock. Everyone is going to contribute and we're going to win big.

game over

[Mr. Body]

If that's not an attractive statline for Beno, I don't know what is. Way to showcase him.

[Nikos]

Excellent post ducks

[ducks]

manu did not have to shot those 2 threes with 1:40 seconds left
game was decided he could have driven

[sa_butta]

Almost forgot what victory felt like.

[ducks]

Houston 99

yeah beno got 23 whole minutes do to his foul trouble

Oh, give it a rest, would you?

why does the truth hurt

[doldrums]

This is a joke, right. You've been owned today. You picked a bad day to trash Manu. The fact that you like TP, and you trash his own teammate to get back at other posters is pathetic. I do not know if I could ever take another one of your posts seriously. Really make objective observations, shed some light on an aspect of the game, but don't waste your time trashing a player having his best game of the year, no matter the player.

[CubanMustGo]

why does the truth hurt

No, but your biased stupidity does.

[WalterBenitez]

manu did not have to shot those 2 threes with 1:40 seconds left

and got hurt? :nope

[WalterBenitez]

why does the truth hurt
because is somebody else's truth and not yours? :smokin

others here bash tp for no reason all the time
I bashed manu only when he deserves it

[Kori Ellis]

Manu is freakin' awesome.

Ducks, shutup with your Manu hate - it's becoming embarrassing that you are a Spurs fan with that talk.

[Kori Ellis]

others here bash tp for no reason all the time

No, you bash Manu all the time and enough is enough. You are becoming as bad as even the worst TP hater. It's sickening. Back off.

[ducks]

yep thanks to those tp haters here
I will back off if they back off

[Kori Ellis]

yep thanks to those tp haters here
I will back off if they back off

No. You will back off because I'm asking you too. You are making up crap just to go against Manu that is completely unfounded.

[ducks]

manu's pathetic d against cleveland is not unfounded
even timvp commented on that in a thread
ok I will back off now
the cleveland game ticked me off
I hate james

[spurschick]

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but the spurs.com home page has the story about the game with a pic of Tony playing. :lol That's just lame.

[CubanMustGo]

Been so long since they posted the story of a W that they're out of practice. :p:

Manu: "Hey! what about me?"



:lmao :clap :rollin

[ChumpDumper]

Don't see it. Maybe they were slow in updating the picture from the last game.

[Kori Ellis]

Don't see it. Maybe they were slow in updating the picture from the last game.

Don't see it either. It's a pic of Manu.

[spurschick]

Wow! It's now a pic of Manu, but I swear it was a pic of Tony as I was writing that post.

[ChumpDumper]

Church members need to clear their caches.

[smeagol]

No, you bash Manu all the time and enough is enough. You are becoming as bad as even the worst TP hater. It's sickening. Back off.
No need to say much after Kori's post about the Manu-Ducks affair.

As for the game, some positives can be drawn, although it was against the worst team in the NBA.

With TP in the game, this is a blowout starting in the the 1Q.

[dav4463]

Robert Horry must have read the article that said Bonner might get all his minutes!

[ChumpDumper]

I am sad about beating Memphis.

Very sad.

Your thread was deleted because it was superfluous bullshit.

I'm glad you were obedient and posted it where it belongs.

[ChumpDumper]

:cry

[T Park]

Nothing much to be gained.

Finley played alot better.

Horry was great. Ginobili is in a good streak, hopefully he can keep it going.

Defense was mediocre IMO.

Oberto was ok.

Im more pissed they didn't keep the lead higher so Butler could get some good minutes.

[zeleni]

Man, that was a great game. And Beno was not even a scoring PG?! He matured on that bench it seems.

[VaSpursFan]

Man, that was a great game. And Beno was not even a scoring PG?! He matured on that bench it seems.

nah, he realized that his shot is off..way off. he admitted to as much in a recent artcile. i took him a while to realize that if i do other things, like facilitate the offense, i may actually play better and get more time. we'll see if this lasts long enough to increase his trade value. beno = trade bait
