sloppy passes going on

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Tim Duncan and four scrubs vs. Detroit's starters. How in the world are the Pistons cutting down the lead? :rolleyes

[G-Money]

Refs Making Sure The Pistons Don't Come Back.

[Spurologist]

:lol

Barry gets the call for being soft

[E20]

Elson is having a Nazr Mohammad outbreak type game.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

:lol @ 87 year old Lindsey Hunter blowing by Barry like he's standing still.

[SsKSpurs21]

please tell me what the hell was that?

[freedom&justice]

Tim Duncan and four scrubs vs. Detroit's starters. How in the world are the Pistons cutting down the lead? :rolleyes

Dude, Flip did the same thing in the second quarter. How do you think the spurs got the lead up so quickly? Annoying, ain't it.

[jackiel1219]

brent only has 2 pts, wtf

[Darth48076]

FLIP!!! Why chaunce guarding Barryh!?!?!?!

[VaSpursFan]

that was ugly...horry got his 3 pt stuffed by 1" vertical webber

[1Parker1]

Horry is officially done.

He just got his shot blocked by gimpy Webber.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

That was a brilliant offensive possession.

1) Try and post up Finley while Tim Duncan stands on the weak side

2) Get it out to Horry expecting him to create off the dribble with 5 left on the shot clock.

Someone needs to call Popobitch soft for this rotation.

[T Park]

Piston's fan has their wish with Maxiell in there.

[milkyway21]

anybody tell me why Nazr not playing? is he injured or benched?

[G-Money]

Refs Need To Stop This Shit. Our Defense Has Picked Up And The Refs Decide To Put Us Over The Limit.

[T Park]

That was a brilliant offensive possession.

1) Try and post up Finley while Tim Duncan stands on the weak side

2) Get it out to Horry expecting him to create off the dribble with 5 left on the shot clock.

Someone needs to call Popobitch soft for this rotation

No 4 down.

Thought youd be happy.

[Tigole Bitties]

Manu time

[1Parker1]

Pop waited too long to put in Elson/Manu/Parker.

[Pistons < Spurs]

anybody tell me why Nazr not playing? is he injured or benched?
He only gets Darko minutes these days.

[freedom&justice]

anybody tell me why Nazr not playing? is he injured or benched?

Benched.

[anonymous coward]

We don't suck. Win or lose, it's one game in February.
the entire east sucks :lol

[SsKSpurs21]

Elson! WOW, he flew for that rebound!

[freedom&justice]

C'mon Maxey! Show 'em what you got!

[Darth48076]

anybody tell me why Nazr not playing? is he injured or benched?


Nazr hasnt played since C-web came to the pistons.. Basically Nazr and Flip murray are on thge way out of detroit.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

No 4 down.

Thought youd be happy.

Are you kidding? We tried to run 4down through Finley.

[Cry Havoc]

Elson... 17 REBOUNDS!!!!!

[G-Money]

These are horrible calls by the refs plain and simple the last 3 or 4 times where not fouls.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Elson with rebound #17.

[1Parker1]

Elson with 17 boards. Manu to the line makes 1-2

Spurs 77-63

[VaSpursFan]

Pop waited too long to put in Elson/Manu/Parker.

as usual...elson is having his best game as a spur...he would have played the full fucking 48 if i was coaching

[T Park]

damn Manu, come on we need those free throws

[milkyway21]

He only gets Darko minutes these days.whoa :D

[itzsoweezee]

This lineup is awesome. Maybe we can let Detroit tie it up before we get rid of the trash on the court.

happens every freaking game.

[1Parker1]

Fuck Hunter with a 3. Lead down to 11.

[Pistons < Spurs]

LMAO Hunter has been our most consistent offensive threat!

[Spurologist]

mmmmmaaaaannnnnuuuuuuuu

[freedom&justice]

spurs lead back up to 14. :cry
Oh wait...

[1Parker1]

Manu with a 3 from the Parker penetration!

[VaSpursFan]

sick Manu...sick 3

[T Park]

oh man lindsey hunter doesn't make threes :rolleyes

Fuckin possum :lol

[1Parker1]

Damn, sweet move by Billups. Up 12.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu 33333333333333333

[Tanya]

We don't suck. Win or lose, it's one game in February.

I said that because we played some average teams during our little winning streak. SA is our biggest challenge so far in this month. I hope they can show me they can play the best teams. :spin

[Pistons < Spurs]

These are horrible calls by the refs plain and simple the last 3 or 4 times where not fouls.

They were ticky tacky calls, but they were fouls.

But regardless, the officials are not why were down.

[milkyway21]

Elson... 17 REBOUNDS!!!!! :clap :ihit :madrun

[1Parker1]

2nd time Parker lost the ball off his own knee. :pctoss

[T Park]

14 points 8 assists.

"Hes only an all star because of the frenchie voters" - ICB

[SsKSpurs21]

Parker is too fast for his own good.

[T Park]

Parker is getting close to Ginobili territory with the turnovers.

[Pistons < Spurs]

I said that because we played some average teams during our little winning streak. SA is our biggest challenge so far in this month. I hope they can show me they can play the best teams. :spin
Well, we're gonna have to in March. Our schedule is BRUTAL the entire month. Let's hope for the best!!! :)

[T Park]

longest 5 minutes 43 seconds of the season.

[Darth48076]

oh man lindsey hunter doesn't make threes :rolleyes

Fuckin possum :lol


like I said.. hunter been 0-infinite in the last 5 games behind the arc, yet wait till this game to go 3 for 3....


go figure. much like Elson becoming the second coming of David Robinson in this game..

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Maybe Elson just needed to feel competition for the job. First game of season, the starter position is up in the air, so he goes off on Dallas.

Then he realizes Oberto sucks, and coasts. Now we bring in Ely, and all of a sudden he's got a threat to his minutes at center, and he starts going nuts again.

[G-Money]

They were ticky tacky calls, but they were fouls.

But regardless, the officials are not why were down.


no shit but those stupid fouls in the 4th is why we havent been able to cut this lead to single digits.

[1Parker1]

BTW, Is this a record in the post Robinson Era that someone outside of Duncan has gotten 15+ rebounds?

[Otaku]

Parker is getting close to Ginobili territory with the turnovers.

Parker averages 2.6 turnovers this season while Manu 2.2

[Cry Havoc]

Lineup that should be on the floor:

Elson
Duncan
Manu
Barry
Parker

[Spurologist]

BTW, Is this a record in the post Robinson Era that someone outside of Duncan has gotten 15+ rebounds?

Nazr

"enjoyed his best game as a Spur at Golden State on 4/10, finishing with 19 points, 15 rebounds (including 10 offensive)"

[Cry Havoc]

Parker averages 2.6 turnovers this season while Manu 2.2

Gee, maybe that's because Parker handles the ball about twice what Manu does?

[1Parker1]

:lol Rip flopping.

[Spurs Brazil]

Nazr had a game with a lot of rebs last year against the 76ers.

Something around 16-18

[VaSpursFan]

why the small ball pop....NOOOOOO

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Lineup that should be on the floor:

Elson
Duncan
Manu
Barry
Parker

WTF has Barry done to deserve to be on the floor? He's got two more points than I do right now.

[freedom&justice]

I said that because we played some average teams during our little winning streak. SA is our biggest challenge so far in this month. I hope they can show me they can play the best teams. :spin

The real test comes in March. That's the worst possible schedule. When we play SA again, WE are gonna be on a back to back, the first game being against Houston. It's the same deal as our first game against the mavs last year, and we all know how that turned out. :(

[SsKSpurs21]

Timvp Baby!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Good lord. None of the Pistons are 'finishers' when getting to the hole.

[1Parker1]

:lol Duncan trips over his own foot. After making a great shot of course.

[Spurs Brazil]

Td!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[G-Money]

refs wont call shit on SA. They should have been called for fouls those last few times. fucking bullshit. They call ticky tack fouls on us but not on the spurs. fucking bullshit.

[anonymous coward]

I said that because we played some average teams during our little winning streak. SA is our biggest challenge so far in this month. I hope they can show me they can play the best teams. :spin

the pistons or any east team doesnt have any hope come the nba finals.

western champ = nba champ

[milkyway21]

14 points 8 assists.

"Hes only an all star because of the frenchie voters" - ICBi don't agree with this. :wtf

[G-Money]

once again they call a foul on us. They are seroulsy agaisnt us. its fucking obvious.

[MannyIsGod]

the pistons or any east team doesnt have any hope come the nba finals.

western champ = nba champFunny, I've heard the same thing for 3 years and the West has only won one of those. The Pistons and Heat were never supposed to have chances, yet they both won.

Thats such a stupid take.

[Pistons < Spurs]

down to 10.....could get interesting....

[1Parker1]

Fuck. 10 point game with 2.5 to go.

[anonymous coward]

once again they call a foul on us. They are seroulsy agaisnt us. its fucking obvious.
:lol

[Darth48076]

the pistons or any east team doesnt have any hope come the nba finals.

western champ = nba champ

LOL... LOL... this coming from a laker fan that said the same thing in 04?



:rolleyes

[Spurologist]

TP for the deuce

[Pistons < Spurs]

down to 9

[Tanya]

Well, we're gonna have to in March. Our schedule is BRUTAL the entire month. Let's hope for the best!!! :)

Well I don't care about our record. If we lose alot in March it's fine. We will be fine in the weak east. I just care about big games when we play the best teams -- to prove we are still elite.
I wish I can watch this game. Is this the best performance from Elson this season? :clap

[1Parker1]

Man, Parker gets no respect from the refs in the paint. Wade gets less contact all the time and he constantly gets to the line.

[freedom&justice]

Man, this sucks. Next time Pistons, just shut up and play.

[Pistons < Spurs]

once again they call a foul on us. They are seroulsy agaisnt us. its fucking obvious.
:rolleyes :rolleyes :bang :bang :rolleyes :rolleyes

[G-Money]

the refs were fine when the pistons were playing like shit but then we they made a run all those horse shit calls were made.

[T Park]

Now they can't miss.

[anonymous coward]

Funny, I've heard the same thing for 3 years and the West has only won one of those. The Pistons and Heat were never supposed to have chances, yet they both won.

Thats such a stupid take.

im just talking of this year

[samikeyp]

some people just don't get it, P<S, we have them on this end too.

[slayermin]

Damn, if it wasn't for a lucky three by Okur and a miracle alley oop by Dwight Howard, it could have been a 6-2 road trip.

[Darth48076]

Man, Parker gets no respect from the refs in the paint. Wade gets less contact all the time and he constantly gets to the line.


no truer words have been spoken.

[freedom&justice]

the pistons or any east team doesnt have any hope come the nba finals.

western champ = nba champ

This coming from a laker fan whose team just lost to the knicks??? :smokin

[Leetonidas]

:lmao @ Manny's sig.

[T Park]

i don't agree with this

People with a brain don't.

[samikeyp]

the refs were fine when the pistons were playing like shit but then we they made a run all those horse shit calls were made.

so you actually think the refs got together and said "hey, let's fuck the Pistons"

:rolleyes

[1Parker1]

once again they call a foul on us. They are seroulsy agaisnt us. its fucking obvious.

Oh come on. I have more respect for Pistons fans than any other team on this forum. Please don't pull the BS ref card on this game. You're sounding like a Mavs fan.

[G-Money]

:rolleyes :rolleyes :bang :bang :rolleyes :rolleyes


you dont have to agree. you always think the refs call it fair...get it threw your head, they hate Detroit and they dont want Detroit beating one of their strongest west teams. I give SA a lot of credit in the first 3 quarters but when they were letting the game slip away the refs keep blowing their whisles on us.

[sprrs]

TP can't buy a foul to save his life.

[Spurologist]

Damn, if it wasn't for a lucky three by Okur and a miracle alley oop by Dwight Howard, it could have been a 6-2 road trip.

If money grew on trees, I'd be a billionaire

[freedom&justice]

:rolleyes :rolleyes :bang :bang :rolleyes :rolleyes

:lol :lol

[jackiel1219]

damn we're down 9

[freedom&justice]

Oh come on. I have more respect for Pistons fans than any other team on this forum. Please don't pull the BS ref card on this game. You're sounding like a Mavs fan.

Don't worry about it. G-Money's ok, but he's always like this when we're losing.

[samikeyp]

oh damn....I thought Tay's 3 was good.

[T Park]

Gotta step the defensive intensity back up.

Only got 150 something left.

[sprrs]

so you actually think the refs got together and said "hey, let's fuck the Pistons"

:rolleyes

A lot of us sure believed that against the Mavs last year :rolleyes

[Spurs Brazil]

Elson 18rebs

[bdubya]

Props. Spurs have come into our house and made us look like a bunch of old men who can't be bothered to hustle to a loose ball and don't have the skills to hit an open J or finish at the rim. Fug.

Nice game, SA

(yes, I know it's not over yet, but fuggin' a...it's been over for a while now..)

[milkyway21]

People with a brain don't.you see i voted for him and I'm not from Franch:lmao

just kidding...

[IceColdBrewski]

WTF was that Tony? Lordy.

[T Park]

....I thought Tay's 3 was good.

Tay's???

MIKEY WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOU!!! :cry

[1Parker1]

Parker with an airball on one hand, a dumb shooting foul at the other end. :(

[samikeyp]

A lot of us sure believed that against the Mavs last year

you're right....and it was just as stupid.

[SsKSpurs21]

Oh My God!

[1Parker1]

FUCK Parker with another TO. Damn

[01Snake]

Wtf??

[samikeyp]

Tay's???

MIKEY WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOU!!!

too much Faygo. (the Michigan people will understand)

[Darth48076]

lol at Tony P getting STRAIGHT SHOOK on that play..

[1Parker1]

Spurs got bailed out, Billups' 3 pointer went in and out.

Horrible 4th quarter for the Spurs. :pctoss

[sprrs]

That was a HUGE miss.

[anonymous coward]

This coming from a laker fan whose team just lost to the knicks??? :smokin

i repeat, i was talking JUST OF THIS YEAR, the difference is between the coferences is to big.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Parker follows up an airball by throwing the ball backwards over his head into the stands when going up for a shot.

Dude, just pass the ball already.

[MannyIsGod]

lol at Tony P getting STRAIGHT SHOOK on that play..:lol @ the spurs picking up a STRAIGHT W in your house...

[boutons_]

Spurs losing 4th qtr 16 -24.

[Tanya]

the pistons or any east team doesnt have any hope come the nba finals.

western champ = nba champ

I don't think so. The pistons should try their best to come out of the east. Then anything will happen.

[G-Money]

Blaha said billups got fouled on that 3 once again a no call.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Well I don't care about our record. If we lose alot in March it's fine. We will be fine in the weak east. I just care about big games when we play the best teams -- to prove we are still elite.
I wish I can watch this game. Is this the best performance from Elson this season? :clap

All our big games come in March. That's why it's gonna be brutal.

5 back to backs

@Miami
@Denver
@Spurs
@Phoenix
@Houston
@Chicago

vs Dallas
vs Denver
vs Cleveland

plus 8 other less significant games.

[MannyIsGod]

Man, some of you should be happy as fuck with this win and you're still finding shit to bitch about. Parker had a great game but the brilliant basketball mind that is AHF is still finding shit to rag on him over.


Give me a fucking break.

[dbreiden83080]

Clutch Timmy Baby

[T Park]

16 points 8 assists.

Id say Parker is doin ok.

[Darth48076]

:lol @ the spurs picking up a STRAIGHT W in your house...


will repost that as a quote in March.

[SsKSpurs21]

its a good thing timmy is hitting those freethrows.

[MannyIsGod]

Fuck this thread.

[samikeyp]

Pistons are still the best in the East. Getting C-Webb was a steal. Looks like the Spurs get the back end of a B2B....I like it.

[1Parker1]

Don't worry about it. G-Money's ok, but he's always like this when we're losing.


Reason you guys lost tonight is on Chauncey Billups. He played an unusually bad game where he did a bad job running the offense and getting other players involved. Hunter had a hot hand, Flip should have gone with him.

[T Park]

Should Manny's offer to Boutons extend to AHF??

Christ beating the Pistons in their own crib?

Last I checked thats something to get fucking happy about.....

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Parker's having a solid game. What's wrong with calling him out for a string of shitty play?

[efrem1]

One more stop and this one is over.

[bonesinaz]

Spurs losing 4th qtr 16 -24.




since it's the 2nd of a b2b, I don't care if they can get the W.

[T Park]

Piston fan is still the best on the internets. Props.

[SsKSpurs21]

LOL HAHAHA Did you see Bruce give that ball up like he was playing hot potato!

[samikeyp]

Don't worry about it. G-Money's ok, but he's always like this when we're losing.

We got those here too.

Seeing as how the Spurs have not beaten the Pistons since 05...this is a great win.

[Darth48076]

good game Spurs fans.. see you in March.

[Cry Havoc]

Spurs losing 4th qtr 16 -24.

You suck and that's sad.

[1Parker1]

90-81 Spurs ith 43 seconds left.

[milkyway21]

wow :wow Timmy is making sure his FTs are good this last 2 games(7-7 vs Nets too).

go! Go! Go! Timmy! :flag:

[MannyIsGod]

Parker's having a solid game. What's wrong with calling him out for a string of shitty play?Fair enough.

I am suprised at the level of bitching in this thread though.

[freedom&justice]

Ah well. Too little too late. That second quarter totally killed us; we were cold the whole game, except maybe the fourth. Nice D, spurs. Still, part of me was hoping we coulda pulled an Orlando on you guys. :cry

[T Park]

Parker's having a solid game. What's wrong with calling him out for a string of shitty play?

Why not just fucking enjoy the game?

[Pistons < Spurs]

Pistons are still the best in the East. Getting C-Webb was a steal. Looks like the Spurs get the back end of a B2B....I like it.


Why aren't you at the game? I kinda figured you would have made the trip to see your Spurs.

[Marklar MM]

If only the Pistons could hit fucking shots earlier in the game. Good win for the Spurs.

[samikeyp]

Spurs 11-12 FT in the 4th....that is how you win ball games.

[SsKSpurs21]

ELSON shoots a THREE!? NOOOO will he be benched now?

[Spurs Brazil]

Great win

[ShoogarBear]

Shit, now Elson's gonna get benched.

[dg7md]

What a game to see. Great one Pistons.

[1Parker1]

:lmao Elson tries to pull a Nazr and shoots a 3, though he misses :)

[bdubya]

Blaha said billups got fouled on that 3 once again a no call.

Blaha didn't see the replay. That was clean. Give it a rest; refs aren't the ones who phoned this one in, and they're not the ones who brought twice the hustle we did.

[MannyIsGod]

Good possible stepping stone. This team needs the ASB pretty bad.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

:lol @ Elson with the three. He'll probably be on the bench for the next month.

[Leetonidas]

Nice job guys. Got the win.

[DarkReign]

That was an ass-whooping of epic proportions.

From start to finish.

Excellent game, Spurs.

[samikeyp]

Why aren't you at the game? I kinda figured you would have made the trip to see your Spurs.


I don't know....you people are rough on visitors. :lol

[mikejones99]

lol @ Davis put him in, Detroit fans desperado

[G-Money]

fuck these refs. The Pistons out played SA in the 4th but everything we did was a foul on us in the refs eyes. The Spurs were choking, refs saved their ass in the 4th.

[Spurologist]

18 REBOUNDS

[1Parker1]

What the heck? Pop doin some special talking to Billups and Sheed after the game...I wonder what he said....:oops

[MannyIsGod]

:lol I wonder if Nazr thought about that when Elson took the shot?

[efrem1]

Too bad this game was not on the West Coast. I have to be content with another crummy Kings game.

[samikeyp]

fuck these refs. The Pistons out played SA in the 4th but everything we did was a foul on us in the refs eyes. The Spurs were choking, refs saved their ass in the 4th.

so the Spurs did absolutely nothing to win this game?

[Obstructed_View]

:lol @ Elson with the three. He'll probably be on the bench for the next month.
Yep. I'm waiting for Pop to overreact.

[boutons_]

Pistons were strangely uncompetitive tonight, but the did outscore the Spurs in 3rd and 4th qtrs.

4-4, ugliest RRT ever, but ended in salvage mode successfully

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

dang it Frankie, you usually hit that

[Marklar MM]

so the Spurs did absolutely nothing to win this game?

Let him get out his frustration. :)

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

fuck these refs. The Pistons out played SA in the 4th but everything we did was a foul on us in the refs eyes. The Spurs were choking, refs saved their ass in the 4th.

You didn't lose this game because of the officials. You lost this game because you got down 20 points. At home.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Reason you guys lost tonight is on Chauncey Billups. He played an unusually bad game where he did a bad job running the offense and getting other players involved. Hunter had a hot hand, Flip should have gone with him.

I thiought he tried to get them involved early. Problem was the interior was shut down. Your Spurs collapsed inside every time we attempted to get to the basket. Also Sheed, Dice and Tay shooting like 13% in the first half kinda squashed his confidence in them tonight.

The Spurs frustrated him and the rest of the team..

[freedom&justice]

Good win, Spurs. Looks like you guys are back on track finally.

[jochhejaam]

Good win Spurs.

[Obstructed_View]

fuck these refs. The Pistons out played SA in the 4th but everything we did was a foul on us in the refs eyes. The Spurs were choking, refs saved their ass in the 4th.
Wow. Look who's choking on dick 24 hours after starting threads talking shit because his team's on a winning streak.

[SequSpur]

wgaf.... The Spurs are back. Thanks to Ely and that mofo was not even there.

[MannyIsGod]

Well, at least we can still beat up on the Pistons. Too bad we only play them twice a year.

:p

[J.T.]

Takin' it to the vBank! Nice win, saved the 2000 I bet on this game.

[Pistons < Spurs]

I don't know....you people are rough on visitors. :lol
Just don't wear an Artest jersey, and you should be fine!

[efrem1]

Pistons were strangely uncompetitive tonight, but the did outscore the Spurs in 3rd and 4th qtrs.

4-4, ugliest RRT ever, but ended in salvage mode successfully

That's a relief in my opinion. A little mo going into the break.

[slayermin]

Pistons had 6 or 7 shots that just rimmed out. Not their night.

[ShoogarBear]

What the heck? Pop doin some special talking to Billups and Sheed after the game...I wonder what he said....:oopsTelling them that he's working on getting them for Beno and Oberto.

[Obstructed_View]

Good win, Spurs. Looks like you guys are back on track finally.
I didn't see them exactly pulling away at the end. Until they do it at least two games in a row I'm not sold. Nice to actually beat a good team for once.

[freedom&justice]

You didn't lose this game because of the officials. You lost this game because you got down 20 points. At home.

No need to rub it in. :cry
He's just mad 'cause we lost. Don't worry about it. :)

[Kori Ellis]

Spurs by 17, bitches.

:lol I was pretty accurate through the first 3 quarters.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

I hope you enjoy the bench Melvin

- yours sincerely

Francisco 'Frankie' Elson :smokin

[lefty]

Winning in Dtroit on the 2nd night of B2B games is great ; might be the turning point of the season for the Spurs

[exstatic]

fuck these refs. The Pistons out played SA in the 4th but everything we did was a foul on us in the refs eyes. The Spurs were choking, refs saved their ass in the 4th.
Don't count on the refs to bail you out when you dig the hole too deep. You cry worse than a Mavs fan.

[Tanya]

So sad because I couldn't even watch this game.
Good win Spurs! It looks like Elson is very good. :clap :clap
So Pistons fans and Spurs fans, do you think that the pistons lose because they don't have Big ben anymore?

[spurschick]

Sorry to Pistons fans, but it was great playing you guys again. And there is obviously still a lot of respect between the two teams – great to see. :clap

[Pistons < Spurs]

Here you go Spurs, you can use my paddle:

http://www.nospank.net/paddle4.jpg

And I'll assume the position.

Great game. Nice way to close out the road trip. Parker and Elson killed us tonight.

Hopefully we can re-pay the favor in March!

[fred33]

when your centers makes the job it's difficult for the other team

[Marklar MM]

So sad because I couldn't even watch this game.
Good win Spurs! It looks like Elson is very good. :clap :clap
So Pistons fans and Spurs fans, do you think that the pistons lose because they don't have Big ben anymore?

It wasn't Ben. It was Detroit's offense playing like shit in the first half.

[01Snake]

Good win, Spurs. Looks like you guys are back on track finally.

Gonna need several more wins to say we're back on track. :lol

Good game Pistons Fans.

[exstatic]

So sad because I couldn't even watch this game.
Good win Spurs! It looks like Elson is very good. :clap :clap
So Pistons fans and Spurs fans, do you think that the pistons lose because they don't have Big ben anymore?
They are definitely easier to penetrate on, especially if Sheed is on Tim out on the wing, and CWebb is "minding the store". :lol

So sad because I couldn't even watch this game.

So Pistons fans and Spurs fans, do you think that the pistons lose because they don't have Big ben anymore?

No Ben is declining and he got overpaid by a mile by the Bulls. You guys will be there in the end the Heat are not as good this year i like your chances against them in the playoffs.

[fred33]

Pistons were strangely uncompetitive tonight, but the did outscore the Spurs in 3rd and 4th qtrs.

4-4, ugliest RRT ever, but ended in salvage mode successfully but it was the most difficult rodeo trip they have a great rection the last 2 games

[Cry Havoc]

Sorry to Pistons fans, but it was great playing you guys again. And there is obviously still a lot of respect between the two teams – great to see. :clap

I concur.

Hopefully we can re-pay the favor in March!

Hopefully not.. that's my birthday game. :spin

[ponky]

Don't count on the refs to bail you out when you dig the hole too deep. You cry worse than a Mavs fan.

way to generalize about mavs fans

anyway, spurs owned on the defensive rebounds tonight but too many turnovers....elson had a ridiculously great night, will it last? seriously, i don't see it, not anymore than when the clock stroke midnight for croshere...congrats on the win though

[Pistons < Spurs]

fuck these refs. The Pistons out played SA in the 4th but everything we did was a foul on us in the refs eyes. The Spurs were choking, refs saved their ass in the 4th.


Go sit in the car, you're embarrassing me!!!


:lol

[freedom&justice]

I didn't see them exactly pulling away at the end. Until they do it at least two games in a row I'm not sold. Nice to actually beat a good team for once.

Yeah, but you guys played great on the 2nd of a b2b no less. I'd say it's at least a start. My Pistons on the other hand...it was probably an off night made worse by our bad D and spurs' good D.

Nah. There were a couple bad calls both ways during the course of the game. It evened out.

Too many missed shots.

[T Park]

Dont sweat it Pistons.

You guys are the best opposing fans on the nets by far and away :tu

[freedom&justice]

:lol

:lmao

[Pistons < Spurs]

From now on, I'm going to suggest that the Pistons refuse to play a home game if Mason is not there on the mic. His presence was obviously the difference in tonights game!

[RC's Boss]

wgaf.... The Spurs are back. Thanks to Ely and that mofo was not even there.
Maybe that was the reason Elson hit the boards

[spyder]

great game for the spurs..can't wait for timmy and parker to come down here in Vegas!! hopefully i'll be able to see them :elephant :elephant damn i miss S.A :depressed

[spurschick]

Too many missed shots.

Lucky for us. We may have had a decent lead for the game, but it never felt really comfortable.

[1Parker1]

Pistons had open looks, just missed many shots...a lot of them went in and out too.

I'll take. More so I'll take Elson's 18 rebounds. :wow

I ask again, is this a record in the Post-Robinson Era that someone other than TD got 15+ rebounds. Hell I can't rememebr the last time another Spur got 10 rebounds!

[T Park]

when your centers makes the job it's difficult for the other team

Ducks?

I wonder whats the most Nazr got two years ago.

[T Park]

Speaking of Nazr.

DNPCD???

Hokey smokes....

[ShoogarBear]

Nazr I think got 16 against the Suns.

Man, trust it to a MAVS fan to rain in out the parade.

[T Park]

Did Malik do it in 03 04 or 04 05...

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Can we have Frankie back? All of a sudden it seems Camby/Nene have forgotten how to rebound and for some reason Reggie is sitting on the bench :lol

[1Parker1]

:pctoss I hate these philosphical NBA commercials with the famous quotes and the weird gospel-like music. It just doesn't make sense for an NBA ad :wtf

They're shit heads. What do you expect.

[Kori Ellis]

Sure. Take him and Beno. Send back Reggie and JR Smith.

Would you prefer a shot of Jerome James dunking with a flash to the garbage bag around his neck with the theme to men at work playing? :lol

JMO :)

Yeah, same thing happened when they had that kids day event where the kids announced the starting lineups or something. We got blown out then too.

[1Parker1]

Nazr 20 @ Philadelphia 02/15/06


Pshhh, I was at that game too. Spurs still lost it so it doesn't count. :lol

[ponky]

Man, trust it to a MAVS fan to rain in out the parade.

sorry, i wasn't trying to do that, the spurs played very well tonight and deserved the win, pistons had their chances and there was nothing off-keel with the officiating...i was just breaking down the game and wondering why elson finally had a great game

NBA.com player stats says Rasho has had 3 games with 15 rebounds, but not with which team
http://www.nba.com/playerfile/radoslav_nesterovic/career_stats.html

[T Park]

Sure. Take him and Beno. Send back Reggie and JR Smith.


What the hell, throw in barry too.

[foodie2]

Damn I love the Pistons fans on here, just like I love to watch the Pistons play. So refreshing after dealing with Mavs fans all the time.

That was a spectacular game.

[T Park]

Melvin Ely makes his first contribution as a Spur :lol

Nazr Mohammed: 20 rebounds at Philadelphia (02/15/06, exactly one year ago :smokin )

The NBA is excelling with different promotional ideas.

Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Sure. Take him and Beno. Send back Reggie and JR Smith.


no worries, JR is another one on the bench at the wrong time :fro

A fing Men :tu

Hopefully Elson follows up this performance better than Nazr did that performance.

[1Parker1]

:tu Pistons fans (minus that G-Money dude) are all great.

[mikejones99]

unless Nazr plays detroit will not get past round 2

I just finished watching the game on DVR since I had to start late and all I wanna say is: HELL YEAH SPURS THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!! :downspin:

[1Parker1]

It's cool. I don't know what got into Elson today...are the Pistons a poor rebounding team or something?

All I know is that it was beautiful to watch someone other than Duncan grab a rebound...and 18?? :wow

Spurs look like a completely different team out there when they have another rebounder. They were missing the same shots they've missed all season long, Parker+Manu+Duncan were still doing most of the work offensively, however, just having that one extra person come out and rebound and score a few points made a difference. I could care less about Elson's defense if he can give us double digit rebounding like this night in and night out...though I highly doubt it will happen. :oops

[Tanya]

Seems like it was only an off night for the pistons. HAHA.. That's my excuse.
I was a bit overconfident before the game. I thought the pistons would win because the spurs can't win b2b. ^^"
Anyways~ I will be back in March when the pistons play the spurs.

And just wondering: does Elson play well against other teams? Or just tonite against the pistons? Joe! Let's trade Nazr for Elson!

[exstatic]

Pistons didn't lose because they missed some shots, Pistons lost because they let SA shoot 51%. :wow

[fred33]

it's so true

[T Park]

Whens the last time the Spurs shot 54% vs the dang Pistons....

[Pistons < Spurs]

It's cool. I don't know what got into Elson today...are the Pistons a poor rebounding team or something?



We're a middle of the road rebounding team this year, but greatly improved since Webber joined us.

In the last 7 games (all wins) we were a combined +38 rebounds.

[exstatic]

My bad, TPark. It was actually 51%. I was perusing the NJ boxscore. :lol
