Can Rasho power the Raptors to victory?

[SAtown]

no :flag:

[Zarko]

I can't wait to see old blue lips back in sa...

Hopefully we can posterize him early for a few dunks. It doubt it will remove all the pain I had to endure watching that guy lug up the floor for 3 years, but it would be a nice start.

[GrandeDavid]

Tonight's a win. No more screwing off games in San Antonio. That's more than enough homecourt losing for an entire season in the Tim Duncan era. Tonight the Spurs will win, although they won't beat the spread.

[phyzik]

Whats the over/under on how many dunks Rasho does?

whatever it is I'll take the under.

[GrandeDavid]

The over under is -1. He's more likely to dunk on the wrong rim.

[1Parker1]

:lol Watch Rasho have a career night or at least outplay Elson.

[Spurs Brazil]

Joe Alexander: Spurs vs. Raptors
PREGAME

Rasho Nesterovic probably never qualified as a fan favorite during his seasons with the Spurs. His shy demeanor in public and lack of expressiveness on the court didn't attract much attention.

But he was well liked among the Spurs.

Former teammates, coaches, ballboys and others in the Spurs organization as well as members of the media practically stood in line to greet Nesterovic before Monday's game against the Raptors at the AT&T Center.

The veteran 7-foot center is averaging 5.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. More importantly, he gives the Raptors an experienced inside defender. The Raptors, by the way, have been rolling since Christmas and have won 18 of their last 21 games.

[johnpaulwall21]

Duncan vs Bosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :hungry: :hungry: :hungry:

[Spurs Brazil]

Rasho has 4pts :cry

[GrandeDavid]

Radoslav with the nice start.

[johnpaulwall21]

damn rashos goin off

[Spurs Brazil]

Rasho killing us

[GrandeDavid]

Can someone please check that beast, Radoslav Nesterovic?

[Zarko]

old blue lips must have had his feelings hurt when we dumped him off in canada

[1Parker1]

:lmao Somewhere Angel_luv and Rashofan are laughing gleefully.

[milkyway21]

4 minutes=8 pts for Rasho

so, what's he's trying to prove? :D

:flag:

[jeffdrums22]

Rasho, too late. If you had played like that when you were in SA, Spurs would have kept you.

[ShoogarBear]

Rasho always cowered in the corner whenever he played the Wolves as a Spur.

[1Parker1]

Rasho always cowered in the corner....


Fixed.

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

SMH @ Rasho NOW playing

[Zarko]

on the other end... duncan is carving them up

[Spurs Brazil]

TD 6pts 6rebs

[ALVAREZ6]

Manu for 3?

[1Parker1]

Damn, the Raptors are 31-25?? :wow

God the East must suck if even the Raptors are tearing it up....

[ALVAREZ6]

Damn, the Raptors are 31-25?? :wow

God the East must suck if even the Raptors are tearing it up....
I wouldn't call 31-25 tearing it up...




and you knew damn well the East blows ass :lol

[jmard5]

i would have loved to watch the game. I am listening to online feeds right now.

[milkyway21]

i think Rasho's highest scoring game was when he was still a Wolf w/ 25 pts. And that was against Duncan and the Admiral.

his low scoring pts and rbds ave was when he played in S.A.

[1Parker1]

I wouldn't call 31-25 tearing it up...




and you knew damn well the East blows ass :lol

31-25 IS tearing it up in the Eastern conference and when it's the Raptors who won like 25 games total the past 3 seasons...:lol

[ALVAREZ6]

31-25 IS tearing it up in the Eastern conference and when it's the Raptors who won like 25 games total the past 3 seasons...:lol
I think you mean 31-25 is tearing it up in the Western Conference....



anyone can tear it up in the East.

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 27-22 after one

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley playing good

[PerforatedNeckline]

finley came to play tonight. it's nice to see occasional signs of life from him.

[Zarko]

ginobilli is the balls

[01Snake]

Gino is a stud!

[Horry For 3!]

all-star break really have helped the Spurs

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuu with 11pts

[aaronstampler]

Gino's warming up, so you know it's bench time.

[PerforatedNeckline]

wow, nice run there. the big 3 are all playing well and finley is contributing. that's tough to beat.

[Zarko]

how embarassing must this be for beno... he is such an after thought now with the way vaughn is playing

[GrandeDavid]

Okay, anyone who is watching the game, how is the game flow? Does it look like the Spurs are focused and should take care of business?

[Zarko]

elson really has improved defensively. look at all the altered shots!

[Spurs Brazil]

Elson DUNK

Spurs up 12

[Spurs Brazil]

Td And One!!!!!!!!!!!

[jeffdrums22]

Spurs just taking care of business, beating who they are supposed to beat...

[Zarko]

spurs look like they are on a mission. Very aggressive, only one TO. We aren't fouling either... 43-28

[Zarko]

TD made rasho his bitch on that one...

[Amuseddaysleeper]

duncan is amazing out there

[PerforatedNeckline]

tim has really been pounding the boards recently.

[Jobbs]

this 2nd quarter has been awesome

[aaronstampler]

We're playing like the baddest team on the planet again.

[PerforatedNeckline]

if duncan gets one more rebound, he'll have his double double by half time. he's sitting at 13 and 9 right now.

[GrandeDavid]

47-30. I guess my question is answered.

[jeffdrums22]

Up next: Orlando Non-Magic and Houston Missles, two very beatable teams.

[Zarko]

duncan almost alley-opped it over rasho... I love it so

[Zarko]

now elson is abusing rasho... I wish we could have traded him to the western conference

[jeffdrums22]

Someone on this forum said the Raptors were not a team to sleep on?

Our Anthony Parker is a lot better than Toronto's Anthony Parker.

[GrandeDavid]

The Spurs should be Orlando. They should have ample motivation. I expect more of the same in Houston.

[Horry For 3!]

Anthony Parker comes down on Bowen's foot

[aaronstampler]

Wonder if the league will call Bowen again.

[PerforatedNeckline]

holy mother, tim has 11 rebounds already. tony's got 5 assists too.

[GrandeDavid]

Wow, what an asskicking.

[Horry For 3!]

Timmy 11 rebs, Raptors 13 rebs :lol

[GrandeDavid]

And Tim has committed 0 fouls. Nice.

[Zarko]

14 and eleven for TD.... raptors have a total of 13 boards

[smeagol]

The Spurs should be Orlando. They should have ample motivation. I expect more of the same in Houston.
If the Spurs were Orlando, they'd have a feast in the EC :spin

[Horry For 3!]

Hopefully Bonner will get to play against his old teammates

[Zarko]

Hopefully Bonner will get to play against his old teammates

I don't think that should be a problem. Starters will be sitting pretty early tonight if they step on their throats for the next 10 minutes.

[aaronstampler]

Hopefully Bonner will get to play against his old teammates

the whole 4th quarter with Vaughn, Oberto, Beno and either Finley/Barry the way it's lookin.

[Zarko]

tonight would have been a good night to see what ely could do... too bad they have oberto activated

[01Snake]

BS call on Tim

[Horry For 3!]

Damn, that was a nice block by Timmy. No foul should of been called.

[milkyway21]

Timmy 11 rebs, Raptors 13 rebs :lol

he's thinking there's really no hot candidate for a DPOY right now, he still might have a chance...:lmao

[GrandeDavid]

If the Spurs were Orlando, they'd have a feast in the EC :spin

Bro, I goofed. That was a typo! I meant, the Spurs should BEAT Orlando.

[Horry For 3!]

tonight would have been a good night to see what ely could do... too bad they have oberto activated
Ely probably won't play for another 2 weeks, if he does even play.

[carina_gino20]

Someone on this forum said the Raptors were not a team to sleep on?

Our Anthony Parker is a lot better than Toronto's Anthony Parker.

soon, Tony will have his name copyrighted. :lol

[GrandeDavid]

Roho's gotta score. Just like last game, I wanna see EVERY player in uniform get a bucket. I wonder what the NBA record is for most games in a season in which every player scored in a game...hmm..

[Zarko]

Ely probably won't play for another 2 weeks, if he does even play.
why not get in shape against the leastern conference? Its like the developmental league anyway

[Horry For 3!]

62-38 Spurs up at half-time

[Horry For 3!]

Rasho has 12 pts at half???? :lol

[aaronstampler]

Roho's gotta score. Just like last game, I wanna see EVERY player in uniform get a bucket. I wonder what the NBA record is for most games in a season in which every player scored in a game...hmm..

Whatever the record is, I'm guessing the 96 Bulls had it. They had a lot of blowouts.

[smeagol]

Bro, I goofed. That was a typo! I meant, the Spurs should BEAT Orlando.
I know you did :p:

[Horry For 3!]

Timmy 12 rebs Raptors 16 rebs at the half

[GrandeDavid]

Smeagol, como estan las cosas en BA?

[1Parker1]

:lol Told you Rasho would have a career night...

[T Park]

Another game people will say "Big Deal"

[aaronstampler]

Rasho has 12 pts at half???? :lol

'Sho's been by far their best (only) player in the 1st half. But defensively they've been terrible.

[PerforatedNeckline]

who was guarding bosh? whoever it was completely locked him down.

[GrandeDavid]

Spurs Brazil, I see you lurking. How's it going, brother?

[Horry For 3!]

who was guarding bosh? whoever it was completely locked him down.
It was a little of all the bigs. Elson, Horry, Timmy, Oberto.

[GrandeDavid]

who was guarding bosh? whoever it was completely locked him down.

It must've been the Baseline Bums!

[GrandeDavid]

Everybody check out TMT's stats. That's basically why we are in legit contention for this year's championship, not to mention next year's.

[twincam]

Holy Hell!

The Spurs have been playing Spurs' basketball!

They're looking pretty damn good after the All-Star break.

All players are contributing.

[resistanze]

Thank God i didn't bet on this shit :lol

At least now I can study in peace.

[smeagol]

Smeagol, como estan las cosas en BA?
Fucking hot. Three nights in a row of 90+ degree temperature. And me no have an AC :madrun :wtf

[aaronstampler]

We only have two turnovers and have only allowed two offensive rebounds. We can't possibly play any better than this right now.

[Budkin]

Looks like SPAM is warming up...

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Another game people will say "Big Deal"

a wins a win but I'm more concerned with how we play against the elite teams of the league



it is great to see the Spurs play at a high level

[GrandeDavid]

Fucking hot. Three nights in a row of 90+ degree temperature. And me no have an AC :madrun :wtf

On the plus side, at least you get to check out all those hot Argentinian chicks in skimpy clothing! :toast

[GrandeDavid]

I'm sick of Utah staying even with the Spurs. Go Lakers!

[T Park]

a wins a win but I'm more concerned with how we play against the elite teams of the league





Yeah that Detroit game wasn't enough.

[Spurs Brazil]

Oi Grande tudo bem

Agora com o fim do horário de verão os jogos são mais cedo

Tudo vem com você?

[GrandeDavid]

Spurs Brazil, concordo com voce, so que em duas semanas estou de volta nos EUA. Vou ver varios jogos ao vivo. Estarei levando meu socio de Sao Paulo para asistir dois jogos e ele nunca viu um jogo NBA ao vivo. Ele vai amar. Um jogo dos Spurs ao vivo e DEMAIS, cara!

[GrandeDavid]

Anyone know what Tim's all time rebounds high for a game is? My guess is around 21.

[Spurs Brazil]

Que legal. espero ir para SA nos próximos anos ver o Spurs jogar

[milkyway21]

when i watch the Spurs game i sometimes check what the Coyote is doing. And sometimes i see him chatting:blah with the folks in the sidelines. Is that what the team mascots shld be doing? He must be given a lesson...He must be suspended for not clapping :clap the all time :lmao

kiddin'

[GrandeDavid]

I remember attending a game waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day where Dennis Rodman had something like 31 rebounds against....I think...Minnesota.

[Cry Havoc]

38 points is a pretty good defensive first half. Please keep me updated. I'm on dial up, so I have problems with even loading the ESPN page. Lemme know how our boys handle the 3rd quarter.

[ShoogarBear]

This sucks. TD and TP are going to sit out most of the fourth quarter and cheat me out of some fantasy points.

[GrandeDavid]

Que legal. espero ir para SA nos próximos anos ver o Spurs jogar

Voce vai ser meu convidado, amigao. Seria legal se voce e mais uns torcedores Argentinos encontrassem em San Antonio para asistir um jogo. Voce amaria o ambiente da cidade durante of playoffs. E maravelhoso!

[Horry For 3!]

Rasho making jumpers?

[milkyway21]

wow:wow Timmy w/ 18 pts. and God knows how many rbds so far?

[MannyIsGod]

Yeah that Detroit game wasn't enough.Stop being a dumbass Tpark. One game isn't going to erase an entire season of losses to teams over 500. Stop sitting there and acting like anyone who isn't a complete believer is out of their minds, because winning against the NBA's lesser teams is all fine and dandy but a teams record against teams over 500 is far more important in determining just how good they are.

You do this shit all the time, just STOP. People are right to be critical of the Spurs and regardless of their play as of late they have a long way to go before they make most people here believe they are able to overcome Dallas.

[MannyIsGod]

This sucks. TD and TP are going to sit out most of the fourth quarter and cheat me out of some fantasy points.Don't count your chickens yet....

kiddin'

In November I went to a game with my parents and my business partner from Brazil and we were down low near David Robinson. The Coyote was standing near us during a timeout and I told him that I brought a fan of his all the way from Brazil. He gave my buddy a high five and did some little samba thingy. It was pretty funny. It was cool of him to give us so much attention. :lol

[GrandeDavid]

Manny is in the house!

[PerforatedNeckline]

i like the spurs' defensive strategy. "lock down everyone else and make rasho beat us."

:tu

[timvp]

Elson getting pulled with 10 min left in the quarter in a blowout for not boxing out was classic.

[timvp]

That last post was me - Kori - by the way.

in the All-Star games I was excited to see Tim Duncan or Parker and check what they were doing, i watched the pre All-Star games activities, the D-League game, the Rookie Challenge and the NBA Jam and but saw the Coyote instead, he was all over the place. It was nice.

[Spurs Brazil]

Horry 333333333333333

[Nero]

Gimme a break. TD Is playing Rasho who knows inside and out. It's obvious he's going to have a good game. The Spurs still suck and TD is on the downslope.

[PerforatedNeckline]

tim racking up a couple quick steals there, just to pad the boxscore

[Zarko]

how nice would it be to play old blue lips 4 times a year?

[ShoogarBear]

Don't count your chickens yet....http://www.fadeeva.com/Beasts/chickens.jpg

[milkyway21]

so how many assists does TP has?

[Spurs Brazil]

so how many assists does TP has?

8

Awesome! I love the Coyote, to me he's among the most fan friendly, funnest mascots in sports, and I've had the privilege of attending lots of sports matches in different cities.

Hi David. I'm at the game, I just didn't bother logging out of LJ's account on this computer.

Horry33333333333333333

[1Parker1]

:lol @ Horry hitting his 3 pointers and waking up.

[PerforatedNeckline]

ol' robert has certainly been looking spry recently. spring must be on its way.

[Nero]

This is ridiculous. We're picking up easy wins against Eastern Conference flukies and yall are getting excited.

[ShoogarBear]

Hi David. I'm at the game, I just didn't bother logging out of LJ's account on this computer.Hope you don't find his porn.

The funny thing is TPark himself has done many times what he know crititicizes, i.e., putting down people who cheer Spurs Ws against crappy teams.

[RashoFan]

RashoFan in the house....

[Spurs Brazil]

Another Horry 333333333333333333333

[aaronstampler]

Bargnani is going to be a sick player in a couple of years. The combo of him and Bosh is frightening. This team will probably be in the Finals by '09.

[milkyway21]

so what's going on with Horry? he's kind of making so much fun from the 3pt territory these past two games :clap

[PerforatedNeckline]

sure it's an easy win, but why can't we have fun with easy wins? what are we supposed to do? stoically stare at the screen, brooding about how poorly we match up against dallas and phoenix?

[timvp]

This is ridiculous. We're picking up easy wins against Eastern Conference flukies and yall are getting excited.

Is it more ridiculous than you pretending to be a Spurs fan and trolling on a Spurs board?

[ShoogarBear]

Holy shit, Beno hustled on D!

[ShoogarBear]

I am so happy; this is a great win by the Spurs!

[ShoogarBear]

I am so happy; Rasho played great!

[Horry For 3!]

Bonner is in :smokin

[ShoogarBear]

Guess the impersonation. :)

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Holy shit, Beno hustled on D!



:dizzy


We ARE turning a corner! :clap :spin

[PerforatedNeckline]

careful with that happiness, shoogar bear. some people here think we should vigilantly maintain our sour outlooks at all times, regardless of our success against teams of mediocre quality.

[RashoFan]

I am so happy; Rasho played great!


Guess the impersonation. :)
none other than my lil sis...Angel_Luv

[Horry For 3!]

Beno turnover

[dave]

goddamnit
the raptors suck

[ShoogarBear]

none other than my lil sis...Angel_LuvActually, it was you. :p:

[milkyway21]

I am so happy; Rasho played great!we all are happy to see former Spurs players doing good with their new teams such as Devin Brown and Claxton..

i just wonder how Antonio Daniels doin right now. It seems it's not that good.. :wakeup

[itzsoweezee]

This is ridiculous. We're picking up easy wins against Eastern Conference flukies and yall are getting excited.


well, we'll find out for sure on saturday whether the spurs have really turned the corner. but right now i'm feeling pretty good.

[aaronstampler]

Um, why is Tim playing?

[aaronstampler]

Wy are Tim and Tony playing?

[Horry For 3!]

Um, why is Tim playing?
So Shoog will be happy

[ShoogarBear]

Tim back in to get me some more fantasy points. :smokin

[wildbill2u]

The Raptors aren't such a bad team. Steve Kerr has them ranked #7.

7. Toronto Raptors (31-25, Last ranking: 8) – Since beginning the season 13-19, the Raptors have won 18 of 24 games.

[Horry For 3!]

Lead down to 16....

[aaronstampler]

Boy the defense has gone to shit quickly. Although T-dot are hitting some tough shots.

[Horry For 3!]

1 more assist for Tony and he'll have a double-double.

[RashoFan]

Actually, it was you. :p:
I think I would say something more X rated with regards to Rasho...:eyebrows







:lol

[ShoogarBear]

WTF, did TJ think he didn't foul him?

[ShoogarBear]

I think I would say something more X rated with regards to Rasho...:eyebrows
I didn't want to end up in someone's sig.

[01Snake]

Pop laying into Bonner. :lol

[ShoogarBear]

Tony channeling Sam Cassell there.

Eva hopes that's all he's going to get from him.

[milkyway21]

NY beats Miami?

Kapono just become Miami's new scoring option w/ 24 pts.

[Horry For 3!]

Pop laying into Bonner. :lol
Bonner is sucking.

[jeffdrums22]

Where are all the Spurs doubters?

[fred33]

eva is at thr game?

[1Parker1]

Whoa what the heck happened? Raptors back in it?

[RashoFan]

Whoa what the heck happened? Raptors back in it?
Check the score dear...101 Spurs and 88 Toronto

[GrandeDavid]

Damnit, I know a win is a win, but I wanted a blowout margin.

[dbreiden83080]

Where are all the Spurs doubters?

We got a back to back coming up in Houston after the Magic on Fri, if we lose that one you will be seeing them again.

[RashoFan]

more like hanging in there(barely) instead of a blow out...

[T Park]

Yawn.

Game over yet?

[wildbill2u]

Seems like Tony never gets many foul shots considering he's always driving into the lane where the big boys prowl.

[1Parker1]

Check the score dear...101 Spurs and 88 Toronto


Well, I was going by the boxscore and saw the Raps outscored the Spurs 24-13 and a 20 point lead was down to 11. But at least they have the W :)

[GrandeDavid]

The Spurs will beat Orlando, and I expect ample motivation against Houston.

[ShoogarBear]

Seems like Tony never gets many foul shots considering he's always driving into the lane where the big boys prowl.Yeah, that's the biggest hole in his offensive game now. Not that he can do much about it.

He should have a lot more games where he's at the line 10+ times.

[dave]

they lost this because i wasn't watching, because they decided to put it on fucking raptorstv

every single game i watch, the raptors win

[peskypesky]

monster game from timmy....

[milkyway21]

we blew a big lead when Parker was on the bench. we were up by 20+ by then :cry

Vaugh finished w/ no asst.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

CAn someone who watched this game please give me some details on the TJ Ford/Tony Parker matchup?

Parker own him defensively? Did Ford show up?

[GrandeDavid]

Nice win, especially considering the Spurs outrebounded the Raptors. Its nice to see the Spurs pulling down some boards lately. Also, nice assists and big time blocks advantage. All in all a very nice, quality win.

[dbreiden83080]

they lost this because i wasn't watching, because they decided to put it on fucking raptorstv

every single game i watch, the raptors win

With powers like that we could use you on our side the force is strong with this one.

[ShoogarBear]

they lost this because i wasn't watching, because they decided to put it on fucking raptorstv

every single game i watch, the raptors winWhat is RaptorsTV?

[peskypesky]

to those who watched the game, did Tim just dominate Bosh? it looks like that from the box score...

[Zarko]

CAn someone who watched this game please give me some details on the TJ Ford/Tony Parker matchup?

Parker own him defensively? Did Ford show up?

Ford decided to show up mid third quarter. Tony played good on the ball defense but Ford was pretty non effective until the game was out of reach.

[BgT]

Two of Raptors starters got injured during the game.

[Zarko]

to those who watched the game, did Tim just dominate Bosh? it looks like that from the box score...

Tim was mostly guarded by Rasho in the first half. Tim had his way with him.

For the most part, neither guarded each other till much later in the game. The spurs help defense probably would be more of the culprit for bosh's poor game.

That said, Timmy was outstanding. If he keeps this up, he has a great shot at DPOY.

[fred33]

Longoria Was At The Game?

[dave]

What is RaptorsTV?

a channel that broadcasts 30% of raptors games

[jeffdrums22]

This is ridiculous. We're picking up easy wins against Eastern Conference flukies and yall are getting excited.

It was losses against teams like these Eastern Conference (and some Western Conference such as Houston and LA) flukies that got people like you talking about "What's wrong with the Spurs?" in the first place. As I said many times before, we were never struggling, and we are just beating teams we are supposed to beat.

Am I right? Spurs get to do what Phoenix and Dallas have been doing all season - Play a bunch of easy teams and look good with winning streaks. NBA Finals is where the truth comes out.

[resistanze]

Raptors NBA TV is essentially the Canadian version of NBA TV, they show other NBA games as well. I didn't bother watching the game cuz i had shit to do.

Who got injured?

[Admidave50]

Ford showed up when Parker was on the bench and Beno Udrih defending on him. He scored the first 8 pts of the 4th qtr including 6 FTs!

[ShoogarBear]

Yeah, when TP came back in, TJ started getting frustrated and ended up whacking him a couple of times.

[Kent_in_Atlanta]

Elson did another very nice job defensively tonight. He had a block, and altered numerous shots. He is turning into a very nice compliment to Timmy down low defensively.

[ponky]

who were the two raptors starters that got injured? i took a nap when spurs were up by 17 or something like that

[Horry For 3!]

who were the two raptors starters that got injured? i took a nap when spurs were up by 17 or something like that
Anthony Parker and Jorge Garbajosa

[ponky]

Anthony Parker and Jorge Garbajosa

thanks, lol at that quote by johngateswhatever in your sig

[mikejones99]

6 great games in a row.

[cornbread]

I'm just watching the game now and I just saw Horry's offensive rebound and putback, with his feet never leaving the ground! That was hillarious.

[angel_luv]

Holy cow! I had such a fantastic time.

I have pics- mostly of Rasho obviously. I am going to have a friend help me upload them to my computer tomorrow.

So fun!!!!!!!!! Look in the Raptors thread for details.

Angel, I was going to come to your section and get you and bring you to Rasho. But for whatever reason, they started the national anthems 10 minutes early and I couldn't get to you in time. :(

I'm glad you had a lot of fun.
