Spurs vs. Suns Feb. 1 -- Game Blog

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Pop goes to small ball and the lead gets pushed back out to five. Where's Elson, he was doing a great job of checking Diaw.

[Horry For 3!]

Timmy is playin like a pussy

[hitmanyr2k]

Ok, no more Duncan tonight.

[Marcus Bryant]

OFFENSIVE. Obvious.

[cornbread]

charge it.

[Spurologist]

TD = turnover machine

[MannyIsGod]

GREAT D by Bowen! He was there for days

[Leetonidas]

About time man, shit.

[ponky]

fuck, too many fouls

FINALLY, a charge on the suns

[Cant_Be_Faded]

this game is fucking over the spurs have not had a decent offensive possession in like 5 minutes

[MannyIsGod]

That was genius. he knew exaclty where Amrea was going.

[TwoHandJam]

Fuck, we can't just be trading baskets now.

Fuck fuck fuck. If Beno wasn't such a worthless piece of shit, we could have maybe built a lead when Tony sat down instead of getting torpedoed.

[01Snake]

Good damn Bowen

[Leetonidas]

This is getting ugly. Manu is starting to get passive.

[dg7md]

Bowen for three works once every 5 games in crunchtime.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Quit passing the ball to Bowen. He fucking sucks.

[boutons_]

spurs gone cold

[MannyIsGod]

The offense has gotten way too stagnent.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

what a waste Manu's giving them good looks and they can't make thier 3's!

[gospursgooo]

Bowen sucks!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Fuck

[Don Quixote]

I'll have to give the Spurs credit. I thought the Suns were going to beat the pants off of them tonight. But they've hung in there.

The Suns ... they make their shots. How many Spurs can you count on to make a wide-open shot? 3 or 4 maybe?

[Horry For 3!]

Fuckin in n out

[spyder]

we need the old ball back for bowen

[MannyIsGod]

Fuck, manu's 3 in and out.

[2centsworth]

2 on 5

[01Snake]

Nothing going in for us

[Marcus Bryant]

Damn. That was down. Almost.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

the offensive execution has been disgusting

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Way to guard no one Bowen. And give Marion the baseline.

[Marcus Bryant]

Doug Collins loves those great regular season teams.

[MannyIsGod]

Lets get a damn stop now.

[ponky]

nice duncan, what's with the stupid camera angle?

[itzsoweezee]

what a bullshit call

[Cant_Be_Faded]

good thing the rodeo road trip is when the spurs team normally comes together

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Fuck Bavetta. Nash holds Manu, foul on Manu.

[BeerIsGood!]

That was either a foul or a travel on TD's make.


Damn foul call on the 3... weak call

[01Snake]

WTF was that shit!

[Leetonidas]

Are you kidding?

[Horry For 3!]

Bavetta? How the fuck did Manu foul if he couldn't even get to Barbosa?????

[spyder]

bullshit

[MannyIsGod]

OMFG!!!!

HOW IS THAT NOT A FOUL ON NASH?!?!?!?

Holy shit!

[dg7md]

We'd be 0-3 on the RRT if not for Finley...

[Jobbs]

these refs fuckin SUCK

moving screen?!?

[Leetonidas]

We're getting screwed in the ass.

[Marcus Bryant]

Bullshit. "Foul" came before the shot anyways.

[ShoogarBear]

Bavetta in Full Effect.

[Horry For 3!]

This is pathetic

[hitmanyr2k]

Wacky game lol.

[2centsworth]

that was such a bush call.

[Spurologist]

Bavatta you SOB.

[boutons_]

Spurs gone cold, TOs, fouls, Suns hitting their shots.

[FromWayDowntown]

<---- has decided who's winning this game, I fear.

[itzsoweezee]

not impressed w/ the suns at all. spurs big men always dominate the suns. so why play small ball?

[MannyIsGod]

Oh my god thats such a horrible fucking call. Nash threw a block on Manu. It was a reat block that gave Barbosa the extra time in the pocket. If I didn't know any better I'd say Nash played some RB in HS and learned to pick up the blitz.


THIS ISN'T FUCKING FOOTBALL.

[mardigan]

Worst call I have ever seen

[VaSpursFan]

fucking horrible...just plain horrible.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

this game is well past over, even if he misses the free throw, the spurs have been chunking and clanking
actually the big three have been trying to take over like we've been saying but they're clanking

[01Snake]

This is gonna be a loooong layover if we lose.

[hitmanyr2k]

Bullshit. Foul came before the shot.

I didn't even see a foul on Ginobili. I saw Nash with a moving screen though.

[mardigan]

Im not impressed with the pussy ass suns at all

[milkyway21]

why can't we stop these guys from making 3 pointers?

Parker 5 fouls; Duncan 4
8 pt Suns adv
2 minutes 4th
end of game.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

worst.road.trip.ever

[Horry For 3!]

Bavetta is a old ass bitch

[MannyIsGod]

Wow, thats absolutely one of the worst calls I've ever seen. I thought it was for sure going to wipe off the shot. When I saw the motion to count the shot I was absolutely amazed. Thats a possible 6 point swing with 2 minutes to go.

[johnpaulwall21]

fucken bavetta i hope he gets his ass beat down by charles, that old mo fo

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

yeah, what the fuck, Nash was moving the whole time he wasn't even set. What kind of screen was that! it was a blocking foul.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Bavetta gets swayed by the crowd more than any rookie ref in the league... too bad he's the oldest guy in it though.

[ponky]

these refs fuckin SUCK

moving screen?!?

haha, i just watched it three times in slow-mo, that was a bad call, nash was not set

[thewatcher]

amare 7 offessives rebounds for a total of 19! :oink

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs gone cold, TOs, fouls, Suns hitting their shots.Aren't you going to blame Manu for that foul?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I am not impressed by the Suns either--I was just saying if we end up playing them in the playoffs I will consider it a blessing. But tonight hte Suns have outplayed us. Even with the ref jobs. Our offense has been a laughable joke after Manu showed some good slashing we just went cold.

[rayray2k8]

It's about that time for him to consider how much longer he'll play.

[fred33]

parker and manu are good duncan less

[Shank]

Spurs are getting jobbed.

[boutons_]

if Tim was 12 of 18 instead of 6 of 18, we'd have this game.

[Marcus Bryant]

Since Steve Nash has been a NBA player, he has yet to win a NBA championship.

[Don Quixote]

Well, it looks like the inevitable happened and the Spurs lost again. It looks like a changing of the guard in the West, that's for sure.

At best, S.A. is the 4th best team in the West.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

haha, i just watched it three times in slow-mo, that was a bad call, nash was not set

You needed slow motion? Weak.

[MannyIsGod]

And you guys are bitches for saying this game is over. A Manu three that rattles in and out and the Spurs are taking the lead. You can't act like the Spurs weren't in it.

[lefty]

Bavetta should retire ; age has caught up

[BeerIsGood!]

From this game I've learned:

Elson needs more court time. He's our best center by far.

Barry is serviceable and can still contribute.

Everyone else is pretty much worthless and big changes are needed to get role players who can actually contribute.

[RonMexico]

Foul on Parker on the ground? That is a shit call.

I think he might have done it to save Duncan's 5th... like when Nash was called on the Marion foul.... still, that was Parker's 5th.

[thewatcher]

20!

[Horry For 3!]

Nash just traveled big time

[spyder]

its over...shitty game

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

:lmao :lmao Nash just fucking traveled. Give me a break.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

And you guys are bitches for saying this game is over. A Manu three that rattles in and out and the Spurs are taking the lead. You can't act like the Spurs weren't in it.
he was open but i still say that was a bad shot, too early, it wasn't desperation time, maybe we get a higher percentage shot if we run the offense and set it up imo

[01Snake]

Game over??

[Marcus Bryant]

Nash is rather underwhelming for a "two-time MVP".

[Shank]

Why must the Phoenix fans boo EVERY damned call?

[MannyIsGod]

The Spurs have run out of gas. You can tell because thats why they started missing shots. Playing last night caught up with them late.

[Leetonidas]

This one's over folks.

[VaSpursFan]

this game is over....every player on this team needs to look in the mirror and find their manhood again.

[Don Quixote]

Bavetta should retire ; age has caught up

Of course, you can say that about half our bench.

[boutons_]

Spurs can't buy a shot, game over.

Spurs shooting has really gone to shit in the past few weeks. 35% - 40% in so many games.

[cornbread]

Nash Dagger.

[Horry For 3!]

Spurs can't make shit

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Goddamnit.

Come on, Spurs.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I thought for sure after the Amare T, the momentum would push us to victory but apparently it helped them to miss jump shots
Props to the Suns, they're the best...for now.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Bowen bricks again... I'm shocked.

[Trainwreck2100]

And you guys are bitches for saying this game is over. A Manu three that rattles in and out and the Spurs are taking the lead. You can't act like the Spurs weren't in it.


Two Bruce Bowen misses and the spurs are two games more in the W column against the West big teams (Dal., Utah)

It's not about being in it. the shots aren't there at the end.

[Leetonidas]

Bowen = completely useless.

[ShoogarBear]

Bavetta should retire ; age has caught upAge has caught up, lapped his ass five times, stomped him to the ground, and farted in his face.

[dg7md]

This team will be out of the first round.

[01Snake]

Fuck!!!!!!!!

[itzsoweezee]

i'm 100% sure the spurs would beat these scrubs in a 7 game series

[Horry For 3!]

Can't even make a lay-up....

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

This game is over, but Barbosa just got away with a charge. Thanks Bavetta.

[MannyIsGod]

he was open but i still say that was a bad shot, too early, it wasn't desperation time, maybe we get a higher percentage shot if we run the offense and set it up imoYou're going to complain when Manu takes an open 3 that rattles out when he's been dominating all night?

[boutons_]

Suns pounding the Spurs to shit.

[RC's Boss]

We lost cuz Tim shot bricks tonight... Oh well, next game

[Spurologist]

time for pushups amare

[ShoogarBear]

Well, at least we swept Boston again.

[Fillmoe]

:lol :lol :lol


24 points and 23 boards........ :lol :lol :lol

[Shank]

Hmmm...

Whatever Raja just said ended in "motherfucker".

God, I hate the Suns. Enjoy your first win against one of the top teams in the West.

[lefty]

:clap :clap :hungry: :hungry:

[itzsoweezee]

someone needs to lay amare out next time he tries that. quit being pussies

[Amuseddaysleeper]

insult to injury

[Leetonidas]

Classless Suns. What a bunch of fags.

[Don Quixote]

We just don't have the playmakers anymore to keep up with these guys. Dallas, L.A., Houston, Phoenix, and Utah have all gotten better, and would probably each beat the Spurs in a playoff series.

But that's just being realistic. We're still pulling for them.

[cornbread]

Way to finish strong guys.

[hitmanyr2k]

Pretty funny how the Suns are acting like they're winning the title here though...it's kind of comical :lol :lol

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

heh heh, couldn't make our shots

[Horry For 3!]

Wow, Amare can dunk when no one is guarding him.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Pop damnit Spurs. Phoenix is trying to score again with less than 24 on the shot clock? I would have taken someone's fucking head off.

[Marcus Bryant]

Running the break under 24 left? Break someone's leg.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

look on the bright side, this road trip will help us come together to championship form

[boutons_]

Fuck, Spurs getting embarrassed.

[2centsworth]

Phoenix fans going to rush the court? Biggest win in their history

[Admidave50]

what about the blocking foul of nash on manu! It should have been an offensive foul and not 3 pt for barbosa!

[angel_luv]

oy vey

:(

[thewatcher]

blow out!
anonymous coward was rigth!. that guy is a prophet!... why he got banned??

[Behrooz24]

Soft

[Horry For 3!]

You can call a travel on Tony but not Nash????

[angel_luv]

Night guys.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

what's Parker doing

[Louie Vega]

It was obvious that alot of calls changed the momentum of this game! Can't anyone else see that? Get some balls and stick up for your team you pussies! Props to the Spurs for continuing to play hard even though the game was being ripped away from them by the refs! Foul Count 14-4 at halftime in Suns favor and it just got worse!

[VaSpursFan]

The Spurs have run out of gas. You can tell because thats why they started missing shots. Playing last night caught up with them late.

manny...i would agree with this statement but we shot like shit last night too and have shot like shit the past couple of games.

[SKINNYPIMP210]

Mother Fucker!!!

I've Been Saying That All Season Long!!!

Mother Fucker!!!

[Texas_Ranger]

2 loses in a row, that is just great.

Spurs really suck!! If they don't make some big changes there will be no more champioships.

[leemajors]

nice finish.

[fred33]

duncan parker and manu 72pts rest of the team 15 with 10 for barry

[Don Quixote]

Way to finish strong guys.

Bill Shoenig (no ESPN in my FEMA trailer just yet) just mentioned, 17-3 Suns run to finish the game.

[Admidave50]

the worst is that it was a close game and the scoreboard is telling that we've been screwed!

[MannyIsGod]

The Spurs didn't have the legs to win it in the fourth. This game was much closer than the score indicates.

I'm not saying that the Spurs lost because of a bad call, but that call at the end really was the nail in the coffin. Being down 9 as opposed to 5 with the ball is really a game breaker.

[ctermu]

We just can't "kick it up another notch" anymore. We just don't have enough gas at the end.

[RC's Boss]

i'm 100% sure the spurs would beat these scrubs in a 7 game series
Most definately. They still fear us in a 7 game series. Only teams I cringe about or Mans and Lakers. Kobe's a killer. Yay Suns! Look how these fuckers act as if their team won a championship :rolleyes

[ChumpDumper]

blow out!
anonymous coward was rigth!. that guy is a prophet!... why he got banned??Because he's you.

[Marcus Bryant]

Phoenix Suns. Your 2006-07 NBA regular season champions.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

oh well good game. Kinda sucked after that weird call.

[Marcus Bryant]

Phoenix Suns. Your 2006-07 NBA regular season champions.

Damn, Stoudemire sounds like Forrest Gump.

[cornbread]

Bill Shoenig (no ESPN in my FEMA trailer just yet) just mentioned, 17-3 Suns run to finish the game.

fuck.

[judaspriestess]

Phoenix fans going to rush the court? Biggest win in their history


LOL, based on the game I went to in Phoenix a couple of years back, I suspect gunshots will be fired in the air out in the parking lot.

[leemajors]

It was obvious that alot of calls changed the momentum of this game! Can't anyone else see that? Get some balls and stick up for your team you pussies! Props to the Spurs for continuing to play hard even though the game was being ripped away from them by the refs! Foul Count 14-4 at halftime in Suns favor and it just got worse!

you can just keep that bullshit where the sun don't shine, lame excuses.

[Tom_Foolery]

When is Bowen's 0pt games enough for Pop to realize that his defense alone is not enough to compensate for his offense(or lack thereof)?

[Admidave50]

I'm not saying that the Spurs lost because of a bad call, but that call at the end really was the nail in the coffin. Being down 9 as opposed to 5 with the ball is really a game breaker.

2 bad calls in 2 nights (okur flopping), that's fucked up!

[mavsfan1000]

This would be the ultimate trade if San Antonio could trade Parker, Manu, Bowen, Duncan, and Oberto for Nash, Bell, Marion, Diaw, and Stoudemire. lol

[mardigan]

Im so fucking pissed right now, two games in a row where the refs decided the outcome. I actually want to fight Amare Stoudamire right now

[veronicamae]

well that was fucking humiliating. why were they taking 3 after 3 [AND MISSING] with 5 minutes left in the game?!

and don't even get me started on the fouls called against the spurs and the no-calls against phoenix. my God. UGH!

[Don Quixote]

Well, I'm off to bed beeyatches. It was a good game until the last 5 minutes or so.

The Spurs will reload and be a better team next year.

[lefty]

What's with Amare???? it's a regular season game ; I guess it's pushup time...

I'm really not impressed by Phoenix ; we are tired by yesterday's game and we can beat them in the playoffs

Hopefully, that's the kind of game that will motivate SA

[MannyIsGod]

I know most people in here are pissed, but I'm happy with the effort we got from the big three. I'm dissapointed that Finley sucked, Bowen sucked, Elson was decent in spurts but overall sucked, Barry was mediocre but sucked in the 2nd half, and don't get me started on the rest of the team.

This shit isn't on Tim, Manu, or Tony. Its on the rest of those stifs.

[Texas_Ranger]

It is still February.

[kevm2]

The rodeo trip aint' gonna do nothing. This CLEARLY isn't a championship team. They haven't shown trademark Spurs defense and can't beat good teams. This team needs some new life. All the oldies on the team aren't going to suddenly turn it up and start playing out their minds. Besides Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili, this team is pretty bad.

[2centsworth]

hard to win a game when you only have 3 guys on your team.

[ponky]

sorry about the game spurs fans...you guys held in there and played well but i think some of the scrubs got caught up in trying to match the running game of the suns and shooting too many 3s (23!)...there was that bad nash call but that didn't lose the game for you...exciting game to watch though...you REALLY REALLY need a backup for parker, this is the biggest weakness in terms of players IMO

[boutons_]

As I predicted, Spurs went stone cold in the 4th, and Suns kept hitting their shots.

Spurs finish with 39%. Amazing bad shooting for many weeks now.

Combined with crappy defense, Spurs are out of contention.

[Amare_32]

Finally! They have beaten one of the best teams in the West. :toast Bring on the Jazz!

[hitmanyr2k]

Phoenix Suns. Your 2006-07 NBA regular season champions.

Even though the Suns and their fans look ridiculous celebrating this win like it was in June I do think they're taking the title this year.

[VaSpursFan]

tale of 2 halves...if we can ever string together 40 good minutes i'll be happy. we seen to be stuck on 24

[Jobbs]

don't jump off the bandwagon yet fans!

it's only Feb 1st.

[Marcus Bryant]

This would be the ultimate trade if San Antonio could trade Parker, Manu, Bowen, Duncan, and Oberto for Nash, Bell, Marion, Diaw, and Stoudemire. lol

Yeah, then the Spurs would have 3 regular season championships. Dumbass.

[leemajors]

I know most people in here are pissed, but I'm happy with the effort we got from the big three. I'm dissapointed that Finley sucked, Bowen sucked, Elson was decent in spurts but overall sucked, Barry was mediocre but sucked in the 2nd half, and don't get me started on the rest of the team.

This shit isn't on Tim, Manu, or Tony. Its on the rest of those stifs.

0 points from 2 starters, bench outside of manu had 5 points. just pitiful.

[Don Quixote]

Yeah. This is definitely their weakest team in years.

Still better than 3/4 of the League. Think Seattle, Indiana, New Yawk, Philly, Boston, et al., wouldn't love to have a team that sucked as bad as the Spurs do right now?

[MannyIsGod]

I don't think the refs decided the game. I think the Spurs flaming out decided the game. But those are 2 huge calls that definitely make it very hard to win on the road.

[SKINNYPIMP210]

It was obvious that alot of calls changed the momentum of this game! Can't anyone else see that? Get some balls and stick up for your team you pussies! Props to the Spurs for continuing to play hard even though the game was being ripped away from them by the refs! Foul Count 14-4 at halftime in Suns favor and it just got worse!

YOU KNOW WHAT, THE REFS DID FUCK THEM! RIGHT UP THE ASS AND THEN STUCK IT IN THEIR MOUTHS! THEY DID THE SAME SHIT LAST GAME WHEN OKUR STARTED SPAZZING OUT! PROPS TO SPURS FOR STICKING IN THERE OF COARSE...BUT WE DIDN'T GET THE "W" SO THAT SUCKS. I'M SOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING PISSED OFF AT HOW THE GAME IS CALLED NOW A DAYS. THE REFS, EXSPECIALLY BEVETA, JUST GO ALONG WITH THE CROWD TO TAKE THE ATTENTION OFF THE PLAYERS AND GET SOME ON THEM! FUCK HIS OLD ASS!

[Nero]

Who do you propose we give his minutes to?

[fred33]

since the old ball spurs sooting is worse

[mardigan]

The rodeo trip aint' gonna do nothing. This CLEARLY isn't a championship team. They haven't shown trademark Spurs defense and can't beat good teams. This team needs some new life. All the oldies on the team aren't going to suddenly turn it up and start playing out their minds. Besides Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili, this team is pretty bad.
Most teams besides their big three dont have much, you dont know what your talking about. CLEARLY you dont know what your talking about

[ponky]

Finally! They have beaten one of the best teams in the West. :toast Bring on the Jazz!

Congrats Amare_32, you're one of the few cool Suns fans. As for your next two games, Jazz w/o Boozer and probably Nuggets w/o AI...two wins! :lol

[boutons_]

"tale of 2 halves"

no, the Spurs gave up 34 pts in the 2nd qtr. Spurs only won the 1st qtr.

[RonMexico]

I was just impressed the Suns closed it out - very, very different from '05.

[leemajors]

i think manu should come off the bench for the first half, but there's no reason for him not to start the second. especially with the way we have started off the last couple second halves.

[kevm2]

Beno Udrih, Jacque Vaughn, Michael Finley, Oberto, etc. aren't going to just start playing magical ball. I haven't seen any indications of championship material. We're not going to beat other teams in a 7 game series when Duncan, Parker, and Gino have to do all the scoring. We were playing the freaking Phoenix Suns, not known for their defensive prowess, and nobody else can score? Plus where is the HEART in this team? We basically let these guys just run the score on us and slam it on us at the end?

Make a trade.

[Amare_32]

Even though the Suns and their fans look ridiculous celebrating this win like it was in June I do think they're taking the title this year.

Hey at least I don't have to hear anymore about the Suns being 0-1 vs San Antonio.

[Horry For 3!]

Parker was 2nd on the team in rebounds with 5 rebs, that is pretty sad.

[veronicamae]

at least i won my vbookie. :)

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I'm past the point of moral victories


these losses are piling up at a sickening pace


good effort, but that's not enough for a championship

[Shank]

I don't exactly see Phoenix running away with a series if they were to play the Spurs.

[2centsworth]

Most teams besides their big three dont have much,
most bad team. Most championship teams have 2-3 studs and good to exceptional role players. Spurs role players are giving them absolutely nothing.

[Russ]

The Big 3 got 72 points and the rest of the team got 15. That won't get it done.

[Louie Vega]

What's with Amare???? it's a regular season game ; I guess it's pushup time...

I'm really not impressed by Phoenix ; we are tired by yesterday's game and we can beat them in the playoffs

Hopefully, that's the kind of game that will motivate SA

Amare is a bitch! He can't even talk with his stupid ass! Big lip bastard!

[VaSpursFan]

Pop needs to make some tough decisions, we just can't play Spurs style with the players on this team

[Amare_32]

Congrats Amare_32, you're one of the few cool Suns fans. As for your next two games, Jazz w/o Boozer and probably Nuggets w/o AI...two wins! :lol


Thanks! :lol

[kevm2]

Most teams besides their big three dont have much, you dont know what your talking about. CLEARLY you dont know what your talking about

Yeah, and MOST teams don't win the championship. The Mavs are stacked, as are the Suns. We can beat mediocre teams, but we're having trouble against good teams. If you think this team is just going to magically jump into championship form with this personnel, feel free to think so... Just prepare to be disappointed.

[thewatcher]

Because he's you.

yes im, i was trying being obious, i hope you dont ban me again and let me debate about your team and open your eyes.

btw feel free to unban my whole ip range, i would apreciated it to much.

the thing that link me to your team is that im argentinian, with a bad english

[mavsfan1000]

Yeah, then the Spurs would have 3 regular season championships. Dumbass.
The spurs are like Rome. The time for them to fall is now.

[Amare_32]

I was just impressed the Suns closed it out - very, very different from '05.

I agree they played the Spurs pace pretty much the whole game. In 05 and even last year this would have been a loss.

[ShoogarBear]

This shit isn't on Tim, Manu, or Tony. Its on the rest of those stifs.And it's on whatever idiot decided Corey Maggette wasn't worth Barry + Beno.

[SKINNYPIMP210]

Yeah. This is definitely their weakest team in years.

Still better than 3/4 of the League. Think Seattle, Indiana, New Yawk, Philly, Boston, et al., wouldn't love to have a team that sucked as bad as the Spurs do right now?

FUCK THOSE TEAMS!

MY FOOTBALL TEAM SUCKS AND I'D RATHER HAVE IT THAT WAY THEN TO WISH FOR SOMEONE ELSE'S RECORD!

WE ARE THE SAN AN "FUCKING" TONIO SPURS! AND WE SHOULDN'T SETTLE FOR THAT SHIT! WE ARE A "GREAT" TEAM BUT OUR SECOND UNIT KILLS US! WE DON'T HAVE THAT BENCH THAT PLAYS GOOD TOGETHER LIKE WE USE TO. YOU CAN BET MONEY ON IT, WHENEVER TONY OR TIM GOES OUT WE EITHER LOSE THE LEAD OR GIVE UP MORE POINTS. A LOT MORE POINTS!

MAN THANK GOD I HAVE SPURSTALK.COM THIS SEASON BECAUSE WHERE ELSE AM I GOING TO RELEASE MY FRUSTRATION???

[SKINNYPIMP210]

And it's on whatever idiot decided Corey Maggette wasn't worth Barry + Beno.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hitmanyr2k]

:lol :lol :lol @ "ice on the onions". Charles is a sick dude.

[SuperManu!!!]

OKs, let's cut the crap and say it.

- We need a new PG backup, Tony can't be playing 48 minutes every night.
- Manu need to be more consistent.
- Duncan must stop being such a soft player and pump some muscles.
- Oberto and Elson must be traded for a big center because they are absolutly useless.
- Bowen should go to the bench and bring barry and manu for starting lineup.
- Finley also must be traded (no wonder the dallas improved so much). Finley can't do anything now
- Horry should never return again unless we are on playoffs.

Stop small ball!!! And get some more rebounds! :madrun :bang





Or at least trade manu to the suns....i bet he would play great there :greedy

[itzsoweezee]

on a positive note, barry has been pretty consistent.


pop has got to start making some real adjustments.

i'm hoping the only reason elson didn't play more is b/c he's still recovering. he can be a big asset to this team, much more important than finley. but he's got to be a given a chance. 10 minutes here and there isn't going to cut it.

I agree they played the Spurs pace pretty much the whole game. In 05 and even last year this would have been a loss.

eh, i don't know about that...they played spurs pace until end of the third, fourth quarter when spurs starting running like mad and shooting too many 3s, sloppy turnovers, etc. my bf and i started screaming at the tv (heh!) because we were just talking about how the spurs don't fall into the running game trap like so many teams and then all of a sudden they didn't take time...this is when the wheels fell off for the spurs, when they didn't play their pace

[Louie Vega]

you can just keep that bullshit where the sun don't shine, lame excuses.


Pinche hoto! Open your fucken eyes bitch!

[boutons_]

Spurs score 31 pts in 2nd qtr, then 2 17-pt qtrs. 34 pts in 2nd half.

Tim's 6 of 18 killed us. As Tim goes, so goes the Spurs.

[SKINNYPIMP210]

I'm past the point of moral victories


these losses are piling up at a sickening pace


good effort, but that's not enough for a championship


AGAIN......THANK YOU!!!!!!!

I'M TIRED OF THIS BULL SHIT ALREADY.

[VaSpursFan]

"tale of 2 halves"

no, the Spurs gave up 34 pts in the 2nd qtr. Spurs only won the 1st qtr.

if you were quoting me, i said halves on purpose; half 1 = spurs 53, suns 50
half 2 = spurs 34, suns 53

if you want to focus on quarters, go for it

[Guru of Nothing]

The spurs are like Rome. The time for them to fall is now.

The Mavericks are like Oklahoma City.

[infinite styles]

Props to the Suns they closed it out on a good stretch. Spurs legs look like they just went out from them in the end and it was evident on their shots. Oh yeah and nice to see that Bavetta still has a nack for calling BS fouls.

[kevm2]

Even Charles freaking Barkley realizes we have to make a trade.

[Catharsis]

YOU KNOW WHAT, THE REFS DID FUCK THEM! RIGHT UP THE ASS AND THEN STUCK IT IN THEIR MOUTHS! THEY DID THE SAME SHIT LAST GAME WHEN OKUR STARTED SPAZZING OUT! PROPS TO SPURS FOR STICKING IN THERE OF COARSE...BUT WE DIDN'T GET THE "W" SO THAT SUCKS. I'M SOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING PISSED OFF AT HOW THE GAME IS CALLED NOW A DAYS. THE REFS, EXSPECIALLY BEVETA, JUST GO ALONG WITH THE CROWD TO TAKE THE ATTENTION OFF THE PLAYERS AND GET SOME ON THEM! FUCK HIS OLD ASS!
Yeah, because all of Duncan's blocks were clean, and Manu didn't creat the contact with his knee to Stoudemire's crotch, and Duncan NEVER pushes off to get a rebound.

It was bad for both sides. Don't accept the help and scoff when it evens out.

[mardigan]

And it's on whatever idiot decided Corey Maggette wasn't worth Barry + Beno.
The Clippers front office? Yea, I blame them too

[ponky]

Pinche hoto! Open your fucken eyes bitch!

LMFAO

You can't blame this on Bevetta. You got owend by a better team. This year it is all Mavs and Suns.

[Amare_32]

At least this game was a hell of lot better than Cavs/Heat.

[THE SIXTH MAN]

You can't blame this on Bevetta. You got owend by a better team. This year it is all Mavs and Suns.
Dude stfu :lol

You cry about the refs all the time!

[ponky]

hahaha, i saw what you wrote in lieu of this...i agree with you 100% on BOTH counts. :)

[infinite styles]

Dawg reading is FUN-D-MENTAL!! When did I blame Bavetta? Spurs had nothing at the end. And my quote on Bavetta's call was just pointing out that it was a BS call.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

please gtfo if you honestly think ginobili intentionally need that faggot stoudemire in the nuts

[thewatcher]

yes im, i was trying being obvious, i hope you dont ban me again and let me debate about your team and open your eyes.

the thing that link me to your team is that im argentinian, with a bad english

[Louie Vega]

Not to mention the suns went to the line 30 times to the Spurs 16! And look when the majority of those calls were made! Momentum changing calls! People need to open their fucken eyes! And fuck you mavsbitch1000 you have the biggest bitch in the NBA playing for your sorry mavs! The refs love to babysit his ugly ass!

[MavsMan1236]

Your empire is crumbling

[Louie Vega]

It was obvious who they blew for when the game was tight asshole! You would probably be crying about Bitch Amare getting racked if the Spurs had won this game!

[sammy]

Fuck the Suns! Whiny ass bastard Stoudemire crying like a bitch and acting like an idiot! Horrible officiating and as usual the refs screwed the Spurs out of a win! Nash traveling all over the place and Stoudemire shoving his way inside should've been a offensive foul! That said, I'm proud of Manu, Timmy and Tony! Rest of the team stunk! They need to make a trade! Give up Beno, Barry and anyone else they can throw in including the kitchen sink to get Maggette! No rebounding or boxing out! I was yelling so much and throwing things around my house I just had to turn it at the end I was so pissed! I can accept the Spurs losing if the fucking refs don't interfere, but come on for goodness sake! Spurs playing against 8 again! Crooked bastards! :cuss

[Holt's Cat]

Better an empire than a cult of personality.

[mardigan]

Come talk to me when yall have a banner that says Champions douche

[mavsfan1000]

The truth hurts. It's like Rome.

[SilverPlayer]

We're still taking you to seven in the playoffs. We'll be better by then, and if we make the trade we need, we'll beat you.

[BIG IRISH]

Your empire is crumbling

Always on the outside looking in^^^^^

[Holt's Cat]

The truth hurts.

It must.

[infinite styles]

So, can we get a vbookie on wether or not Manu gets suspended for the knee that Amare took? Honestly I would be suprised if it wasn't reviewed because the league dug itself a hole with the Kobe suspension.

[BillsCarnage]

Your empire is crumbling
You Bitches are next, so be careful what you say.

The Suns got that 800lb mental monkey off their back tonight (even if the Spurs are a step slower now) and once the all-star break is over they're going to really kick it into gear.

[MavsMan1236]

I wanted the Spurs to win to shut up all the Suns trolls on insidehoops.com, but they couldnt get the Job done.

Spurs may be a factor in the playoffs, but I dont see it right now.

[THE SIXTH MAN]

On what grounds do you have to come on this board with arrogance? As of the moment you can only claim the best record in the NBA and thats it.

[Holt's Cat]

Uh oh. It's a smackfest between the warriors of February.

You give your honest opinion on things. UNLIKE THAT PUNK BEYATCH MAVSFAN100!

[Holt's Cat]

Mavs own February, dude.

[Louie Vega]

This shit is getting out of hand! The refs are just getting worse and worse! And anyone who thinks I complain about refs should read all my posts and then come at me! I never complain about refs but after last years series with the mavs I am stating to see the light! And the past couple of games have proven my point!

I'm sorry but the 800lb monkey would best be used for when you win the conference finals and not a regular season game.

why are you being a dickhead? i like fans of other teams to go to the mavs' boards but not to talk shit after a loss, that's puerile and pathetic and just gives mavs fans a bad name, grow the fuck up

[TwoHandJam]

Oberto/Elson/Bowen/Horry/Udrich/Finley/Vaughn tonight = 5 pts

Game over.

[Louie Vega]

So, can we get a vbookie on wether or not Manu gets suspended for the knee that Amare took? Honestly I would be suprised if it wasn't reviewed because the league dug itself a hole with the Kobe suspension.


The question isn't whether or not Manu will get suspended. The real question is for how many games?!

[MavsMan1236]

Mavs own February, dude.

I remember us owning the Spurs last May

[Manu_The _Best]

If anyone was kidding himself/herself before this game that the Spurs would have a slight chance to win it, he/she must’ve been delusional: I said before the game, we would lose by 20+, but MY MANU saved this great embarrassment, we lost ONLY by 16 points this time…I call this team all season long “Pop’s OLD DONKEYS”…The only bad prediction today was for “the high scoring game” – we all forgot the Spurs played last night, thus they weren’t capable of scoring 100 pts…Terrible second half with 17 pts each, showing the SPURS ARE DAMN OLD – Trust me fellows, the Spurs gave 100% in this game and still lost by 16 points – they were able to play only 1 half…This clearly shows how OLD THEY ARE...If this was the team from 2-3 years ago, the Spurs would’ve won both games – at Utah and tonight against the Suns (both teams are nothing special anyway!), but unfortunately today’s LOSS confirms once again without a doubt that the Spurs don’t have a complete and competitive roster to win a title this year – besides the BIG 3 and Barry, the rest of it is just a GARBAGE that needs to be released immediately after the season – I don’t want to go back and point the useless presence in the court of Oberto and Elson (both of them were discussed enough last night), but Finley was the “hero” again, proving that “miracles” in basketball do happen by hitting that winning “sparking” 3 vs. the LA – today, he was back to his regular old form – 22 min., 3 pts and 1-4 shooting - just miserable, proving his latest shining was a fluke; needless to say Beno and Vaughn are finished (!!!) – both of them combined with 0-4 from the floor and 1 TO – Bruce Bowen lost it as well (he is TOO OLD, couldn’t get a single 3, as he was 0-4 from the floor !!!) – I doubt things will get better…This is the worse team the Spurs have had during the Tim Duncan’s era – I say that because we really have only 4 players (plus somewhat Horry), who can produce something for us – with that, we will be lucky to pass the 1 st round in the Playoffs this year – as I said many times here, the season is OVER!!! The NBA elite is too much ahead of the Spurs – for the Spurs to win games, all 3 players (Manu, Tony and Tim) have to play 100% and score over 25 pts each IN EVERY GAME, something impossible to achieve – for example, Tim was tired of playing defense 2 games in a row (after a rough night at Utah) and couldn’t score in the 4th today (2 points only) becauseu there is nobody to help him at the center - Oberto and Elson are useless, Horry is old… This whole team is a disgrace(!), the management and the coaching staff as well by doing NOTHING in the summer to improve this roster to compete – I guess 3 titles are enough and now we are saving Holt’s money for later - this is what we did during the summer…WHY NOT??? The fans have the BIG POCKETS, let them fool themselves and carry the burden of anger…I feel sorry for our stars – Manu, Timmy and Tony (plus Barry) – those guys deserve better (NOT play with the GARBAGE around them)…SA Fans pack your bags and start thinking for the next season – it is about time to scream at Holt, Pop and the management to start spending some real $$$ to create a competitive NBA squad, if they want to win another NBA title... :ihit :ihit :ihit :ihit :ihit :ihit

GO SPURS!!!
Beno is finished

[RC's Boss]

The truth hurts. It's like Rome.
EVER HEARD THE TERM "PEAKING TOO EARLY"? ASK THE PISTONS IN 05-06. DON'T THE MAVS HAVE A BOARD FOR YOU TO TALK SHIT ON. IF NOT KORI MADE A SPECIAL FORUM JUST FOR YOU FUCKING TROLL :flipoff :stfu
