Round 1, Game 1: Spurs vs Nuggets Official Game Blog Thread

[lefty]

what a boring game only 40 points by halftime who wants to watch this!!!!???[SIZE=7]

you do

[boutons_]

what an ugly half from the starters and Manu, but only down 2.

Can it be any worse in the 2nd half?

[theMUHMEshow]

Damn...everyone bitches about my boys in Detroit not putting the ball in the bucket and they're the only team to hit for 100 thusfar.

[Kori Ellis]

AI was 0-for-6 in the first quarter. He was bound to start scoring at some point. He's not one of the league's leading scorers for nothing.

They need to have Bowen guard AI and put Finley on Carmelo to start the second half.

[ALVAREZ6]

The Spurs are playing shitty as fuck, yet the score is about equal.

[ShoogarBear]

LMAO at Melo thinking they did anything on defense to stop the Spurs.

[davemaniscool]

Trust me Melo you didn't play great D. Spurs missed more than my 8 yr old nephews basketball team.

[GrandeDavid]

Melo is finna backpedal into an 0-1 series deficit.

[Slinkyman]

what a boring game only 40 points by halftime who wants to watch this!!!!???[MY PENIS SIZE=2"]

what?

[PB&J]

Damn...everyone bitches about my boys in Detroit not putting the ball in the bucket and they're the only team to hit for 100 thusfar.

we heard you the first time buddy.

[T Park]

The Spurs must word the Nuggz up. And it looks as if they are starting to listen to me.

word them up?

:lol

or did you mean Board them up.

[Tippecanoe]

oberto and finley combined 8-12, 18 pts

[theMUHMEshow]

what a boring game only 40 points by halftime who wants to watch this!!!!???[SIZE=7]

I would rather watch these two teams over _allas or Hoenix anyday

[ALVAREZ6]

Melo can shoot over anyone. We will never stop his mid-range game, if he's smart about his shots. We just gotta get some rebounds on defense and make some shots.

[ALVAREZ6]

Duncan has no finesse

[ducks]

manu lets melo gets a dunk
tp,duncan and manu are sucking and tp is the only one that gets called out unreal

[Slinkyman]

Damn...everyone bitches about my boys in Detroit not putting the ball in the bucket and they're the only team to hit for 100 thusfar.

let the spurs play a sub .500 team and they'll put up 110 easy.

[theMUHMEshow]

AI was 0-for-6 in the first quarter. He was bound to start scoring at some point. He's not one of the league's leading scorers for nothing.

They need to have Bowen guard AI and put Finley on Carmelo to start the second half.

Ehhh...Kori? Did you see what Ivo did to Bowen in the first 6 minutes of the game? Bruce Bruce had 2 fouls in no time.

[Horry For 3!]

I get home for lunch and it is half-time :pctoss I knew that shit would happen. I might be able to watch a little of the 3rd before I go back to work. :pctoss

Tony and Timmy are shooting horrible

[T Park]

TIMVP is baited and ready for the "I told you so" on elson.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

My favorite play of the half was Parker coming down, dribbling around, going into the lane, getting blocked by Camby, gets his rebound, looks off Duncan, goes into the lane again, spins around Blake, gets stuffed by Camby.

No other Spur touched the ball. What the fuck Tony?

[theMUHMEshow]

let the spurs play a sub .500 team and they'll put up 110 easy.

lol...I know. :downspin:

[twincam]

Spurs took 18 more shots than the Nuggets and trailing by two points at halftime?! Then again, they're freakin' shooting a pathetic percentage.

[T Park]

Agreed aggie. parker and ginobili are both playing like garbage...

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

TIMVP is baited and ready for the "I told you so" on elson.

We didn't start getting smoked on the offensive glass until Pop pulled Elson and went with his 'old faithful' lineup of Parker, Manu, Bowen, Horry, and Duncan.

[NorCal510]

I would rather watch these two teams over _allas or Hoenix anyday
golden st warriors my friend

[ShoogarBear]

Damn...everyone bitches about my boys in Detroit not putting the ball in the bucket and they're the only team to hit for 100 thusfar.Yeah, playing the worst team in the playoffs. :drunk

[theMUHMEshow]

We didn't start getting smoked on the offensive glass until Pop pulled Elson and went with his 'old faithful' lineup of Parker, Manu, Bowen, Horry, and Duncan.

No kidding. :oops

[Supergirl]

AI was 0-for-6 in the first quarter. He was bound to start scoring at some point. He's not one of the league's leading scorers for nothing.

They need to have Bowen guard AI and put Finley on Carmelo to start the second half.

Interesting idea, But I think Anthony would be too much for Fin. Whereas, I think they should just switch when Manu comes in and have Manu on AI, and Bowen on Anthony. If they're both in they might do better to try Elson, Duncan, or Oberto on Anthony, rather than Fin or Manu, or seem like they're just too small.

I hope Elson is coming back in the 2nd half?

[T Park]

Whats the score right now.

Is it 44-42 at the half?

[ducks]

My favorite play of the half was Parker coming down, dribbling around, going into the lane, getting blocked by Camby, gets his rebound, looks off Duncan, goes into the lane again, spins around Blake, gets stuffed by Camby.

No other Spur touched the ball. What the fuck Tony?
yeah driving is bad

again tp is the only one getting called out when manu and duncan both sucky as bad
td shooting off ballance jumpshots
stupid

[easjer]

Talk about fucking frustrating to watch.

7 for 33.

Fuck me.

At least, as SFIE said, it can't get worse.

At least the defense and bench are keeping it tight, but AI is giving us more trouble than I anticipated. Man, it is damn near agonizing to watch a fucking playoff game.

[theMUHMEshow]

golden st warriors my friend

I am pulling for you guys..I fucking hate _allas

[aaronstampler]

We shot 10% better in the 2nd qtr than the first. Hopefully we can keep that trend going.

For all the offensive rebound concerns, we have two more than they do, 10-8. The big three will not shoot 7-33 in the second half. I like our chances.

[T Park]

We didn't start getting smoked on the offensive glass until Pop pulled Elson and went with his 'old faithful' lineup of Parker, Manu, Bowen, Horry, and Duncan.

he had to pull Elson, he had 2 friggen fouls.

[theMUHMEshow]

Yeah, playing the worst team in the playoffs. :drunk

lol... :spin I know

[boutons_]

when was the last time, if ever, all of Spurs big 3 failed to have 10 pts in first half?

[ducks]

We didn't start getting smoked on the offensive glass until Pop pulled Elson and went with his 'old faithful' lineup of Parker, Manu, Bowen, Horry, and Duncan.
would you leave elson in with his 2 fouls

[Kori Ellis]

Ehhh...Kori? Did you see what Ivo did to Bowen in the first 6 minutes of the game? Bruce Bruce had 2 fouls in no time.

Iverson had two points, one assist and was 0-for-6 in the first quarter.

[ShoogarBear]

Another part of the bright side: it's a Salvatore-Nies game but well-officiated so far.

[ALVAREZ6]

the refs have been goodDon't jinx us.


From what I recall, Salvatore and Nies are reffing this shit, so anything can still happen.

[T Park]

Elson has got to get his head in the game better, and at least attempt at rebounding, with Nene not kicking his ass.

Nene and camby got him out of the game quick.

Shame Tim wont upfake nene and camby and get THEM out.

[davemaniscool]

Ahhhhh NOT Salvatore!

[ducks]

when was the last time, if ever, all of Spurs big 3 failed to have 10 pts in first half?
agree this is unreal
finley and oberta making up for it so far

[theMUHMEshow]

Iverson had two points, one assist and was 0-for-6 in the first quarter.

Didnt you see what he did for the offense?

He created openings for Melo and NENE on the glass. He got Bowen into foul trouble. and look at the attention he drew from his shots...and notice the score when Bowen was on him apposed to your other options. :king

[ALVAREZ6]

I forgot that the Spurs get assraped on defensive boards before this game.


Back to reality.




Fuck.

[theMUHMEshow]

the refs have been good

I think so too

[aaronstampler]

we need to get to the line more. 4 attempts in one half ain't gonna cut it.

[GrandeDavid]

what?

I'm glad I'm not watching it! I'm only passively following it online from tha crib in Berzille.

[davemaniscool]

Elson has got to get his head in the game better, and at least attempt at rebounding, with Nene not kicking his ass.

Nene and camby got him out of the game quick.

Shame Tim wont upfake nene and camby and get THEM out.

It's too bad that Elson has the same laid back demeanor as Nasho since he's pretty athletic.

[ALVAREZ6]

we need to get to the line more. 4 attempts in one half ain't gonna cut it.Yeah, as long as Tim's not shooting.

[ducks]

Didnt you see what he did for the offense?

He created openings for Melo and NENE on the glass. He got Bowen into foul trouble. and look at the attention he drew from his shots...and notice the score when Bowen was on him apposed to your other options. :king
she knows what he did
she is at the game in press row you idiot

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

yeah driving is bad

again tp is the only one getting called out when manu and duncan both sucky as bad
td shooting off ballance jumpshots
stupid

ducks, Manu sucked the first half too. It pisses me off to no end watching a point guard on ANY team bring the ball up, dribble around for 15 seconds, decide to go into the lane, spin around a guy and throw up some weak shit that gets blocked, gets his own rebound, and tries it again and gets it blocked again, when no one else on his entire team got to touch the ball on the ENTIRE possession.

That's stupid and selfish, period, and if Manu did it I would call his ass out too.

[ATXSPUR]

San Antonio needs to quit hesitating when they have a good shot. And they need to take better shots. Overall I am please with the first half considering the way they played. Actually im not pleased with it....im pleased with the outcome considering how they played.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

would you leave elson in with his 2 fouls

I wouldn't leave him in. I thought the original reference was to LJ saying Elson couldn't hang.

[T Park]

It's too bad that Elson has the same laid back demeanor as Nasho since he's pretty athletic.

Yeah so far, hes played as stupid as Nazr, but as pussy as Rasho.

Damnt....

[easjer]

we need to get to the line more. 4 attempts in one half ain't gonna cut it.


Taking mediocre jump shots won't get you to the line. Don't know if they are worried about being blocked or what, but they seem to have taken more jump shots than anything.

Not that they were making their shots around the basket. :bang

[theMUHMEshow]

she knows what he did
she is at the game in press row you idiot

:(

Sweet...Maybe I will see ya on press row in the finals...If yall get past Denver...JK! :toast

[Budkin]

I'm not worried a bit... the fact that TMT has sucked so horribly and we are down just 2 is great news for us.

[T Park]

In the minutes elson had, he wasn't hangin too good with nene...

[ALVAREZ6]

Tony's a balla, he balls with his boy Booba. You can't blame him.



Next game he'll shoot a bunch of shit, only it will go in.

[MannyIsGod]

I'm not going to read this thread because the key to the game is in 3 words below.






Make some shots.

[PB&J]

what happened to the TP tear drop, did he lose it working on his outside jumper?

[bonesinaz]

Nugs are packing the lane and camping out. Spurs are settling for Js.

[ducks]

duncan shooting fadeways is one reason spurs are not shooting more free throws

tp did drive got blocked 2 in a row but atleast he drove and attacked
he was hoping refs would call a foul

[Spurologist]

Didnt you see what he did for the offense?

He created openings for Melo and NENE on the glass. He got Bowen into foul trouble. and look at the attention he drew from his shots...and notice the score when Bowen was on him apposed to your other options. :king

Any scrub can jack up misses and allow for off. rebounds. Yeah he got Bowen in foul trouble. You've said that 10 times already. Point is you can't argue with facts. AI played like garbage in the first quarter. PERIOD.

[GrandeDavid]

parker + ginobili +duncan = 15 pts

...which is synonymous to a fourth championship effort.

[OH BE 1 GINOBLI]

The Big 3 ... 7 for 33 and were down by 2 at the half...I like our chances!

[T Park]

Another thing thats disconcerning is Ginobili's lack of agression.

hes settling for the jumper again as opposed to driving it to the basket.

Duncan, i don't know what the fuck hes doing shooting fadeaway 16 footers.

Parker has sucked out loud, missing layups and tear drops.

the whole team needs to be agressive, dive to the hole, get their bigs in foul trouble and then DRIVE MORE!!!

[Leetonidas]

I forgot that the Spurs get assraped on defensive boards before this game.


Back to reality.




Fuck.
The Spurs are +2 on the offensive glass.

[ducks]

nuggets only have 2 blocks all game it was not like nuggets were blocking shots left and right

[T Park]

Yeah and those two blocks were on parker's fucked up decision making.

[ALVAREZ6]

Duncan takes the worst shots. It kills me to such an uncoordinated player like him take these shots. They are guaranteed misses.


Fuck.

[Jimcs50]

what happened to the TP tear drop, did he lose it working on his outside jumper?

He'll get it back if Eva breaks up with him.

[theMUHMEshow]

I bet they stick Bowen on Ivo again he is going to start to attack the rack and get him even deeper in foul trouble. Bowen doesnt have the speed to even come close to sticking with him.

I would let Iverson keep chucking and focus on shutting down Nene with Timmay and Melo with Bruce Bruce

[ducks]

Another thing thats disconcerning is Ginobili's lack of agression.

hes settling for the jumper again as opposed to driving it to the basket.

Duncan, i don't know what the fuck hes doing shooting fadeaway 16 footers.

Parker has sucked out loud, missing layups and tear drops.

the whole team needs to be agressive, dive to the hole, get their bigs in foul trouble and then DRIVE MORE!!!
he drove and gets called out because he got blocked 2 time by spur fans

[boutons_]

Pretty simple, Spurs getting killed on the boards, in spite of so many missed shots.

And shooting 33%, instead of their season avg of 47%.

[Jimcs50]

Yeah and those two blocks were on parker's fucked up decision making.

Yeah, he never usually takes the ball to the basket....the dumbass, what was he thinking.

:rolleyes

[makedamnsure]

Pop better give them an earful

[ALVAREZ6]

The Spurs are +2 on the offensive glass.So what, this game is an exception, they have been lucky that the rims are rocketing the balls out, for both teams. I'm just sayin, Nene and Camby and Melo >>> spurs frontcourt in rebounding

[T Park]

He'll get it back if Eva breaks up with him.

ok now thats just fucking stupid.

[aaronstampler]

Y'all need to calm the fuck down. We're down 2 at half in game 1 of the playoffs. You're gonna have heart attacks if you don't relax a bit. We're playing as bad as possible and it's a two point game. That's a good sign.

[PB&J]

Duncan takes the worst shots. It kills me to such an uncoordinated player like him take these shots. They are guaranteed misses.


Fuck.

yeah, but his shots will eventually fall. Can you believe Oberto and Finley? How many trade/cut Finley and Oberto threads have you seen on this site?

[ducks]

He'll get it back if Eva breaks up with him.tp gets called out with his girlfriend and duncan and manu both have significult others they spend alot of time with
and they are sucking but that is ok

[theMUHMEshow]

Any scrub can jack up misses and allow for off. rebounds. Yeah he got Bowen in foul trouble. You've said that 10 times already. Point is you can't argue with facts. AI played like garbage in the first quarter. PERIOD.

He was shooting like garbage that is for sure.

[ALVAREZ6]

T Park, Manu is settling for a lot of jumpers, you're right, but he also drove the lane a few times as well. Nothing is going in, not even his layups.

[T Park]

Yeah, he never usually takes the ball to the basket....the dumbass, what was he thinking.



WTF.

Take the ball to the basket yes, but dont dribble around 1 on 1, shoot get it blocked and shoot it again at the same damn guy.

PASS!!!

Theirs agression, and theirs stupidity.

parker had stupidity on that play.

[ShoogarBear]

The Spurs are +2 on the offensive glass.Yeah, but they missed 36 shots. The Nuggest have only missed 19 shots, so they're still getting offensive rebounds at a higher rate.

[Jimcs50]

ok now thats just fucking stupid.


the teardrop...get it? He will have tears????

Nevermind...you are dense sometimes.

[aaronstampler]

Duncan takes the worst shots. It kills me to such an uncoordinated player like him take these shots. They are guaranteed misses.


Fuck.

The guy shot 54% for the season dude, I think he's pretty damn coordinated.

[ducks]

ok lets go spurs

lets go tp
lets go manu
lets go duncan
lets go pop

[ALVAREZ6]

Y'all need to calm the fuck down. We're down 2 at half in game 1 of the playoffs. You're gonna have heart attacks if you don't relax a bit. We're playing as bad as possible and it's a two point game. That's a good sign.We're all calm damnit, I;m 100% sure the spurs will win the series. I like to rant from time to time.


The Spurs will win this game. I hope.

[T Park]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

T Park, Manu is settling for a lot of jumpers, you're right, but he also drove the lane a few times as well. Nothing is going in, not even his layups.

A few yeah.

But he should'nt be shooting jumpers what so ever.

DRIVE!!

WHOS GONNA GUARD YOU?!?!?!

God, get to the basket and get camby and Nene in foul trouble!!!

[ALVAREZ6]

The guy shot 54% for the season dude, I think he's pretty damn coordinated.No he;s not.


Hell of a bball player, but his coordination sucks.

[easjer]

It kills me. If the big 3 had each made 2 more shots, we are in total control of this game. I still think they can win - it's encouraging to see the bench produce and the defense hold together, but damn. Painful.

Oh well, the Rockets were the same way last night and they pulled it together on offense. D stays tough and there is no way they can continue to shoot so cold, right?

[exstatic]

I can't believe people here are having shit fits. Spurs are getting great looks, the shot just aren't falling. How good do you feel if you're the Nuggs, and you look at the scoresheet and see SA shooting 33% and trailing by 2? Not very good, I'll tell you.

[Kori Ellis]

what happened to the TP tear drop, did he lose it working on his outside jumper?

Yeah he lost it since the season ended :rolleyes

It's one half. You guys need to frickin simmer down.

[ALVAREZ6]

Unleash Ely On Nene

[theMUHMEshow]

Denver 8TO 6AST is not going to cut it...

[Jimcs50]

I can't believe people here are having shit fits. Spurs are getting great looks, the shot just aren't falling. How good do you feel if you're the Nuggs, and you look at the scoresheet and see SA shooting 33% and trailing by 2? Not very good, I'll tell you.


Agreed...this is fixable.

[T Park]

We're playing as bad as possible and it's a two point game. That's a good sign.

They are settling for jumpers and not being agressive.

they are letting nene and camby push them around on the boards.

Duncan is shooting jumper after jumper.

Thats what were worried about.

Those things, have GOT to change, if they are gonna even SNIFF a win.

[ducks]

spurs should win by 15

[ALVAREZ6]

It's one half. You guys need to frickin simmer down.Come on, it's the first playoff game.


You know the drill by now.



This isn't real panic.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

duncan shooting fadeways is one reason spurs are not shooting more free throws

tp did drive got blocked 2 in a row but atleast he drove and attacked
he was hoping refs would call a foul

ducks, his second shot was a fadeaway from Steve frickin' Blake. You're smoking something if you think he was trying to draw a foul.

[T Park]

Unleash Ely On Nene

;lol

beyond taking him out in the tunnel, Ely can't go in :lol

[Ginofan]

Come on guys let's make it a better half. Get your shit together!

[ShoogarBear]

Come on, it's the first playoff game.


You know the drill by now.



This isn't real panic.:lmao

[diego]

besides oberto and finley, horry has played well and took some hard shots. lets hope he keeps it up and stays safe becuase this game is making it clear we are going to need more from our foul prone frontcourt through the series

[T Park]

ducks, his second shot was a fadeaway from Steve frickin' Blake

sniff :depressed

[Jimcs50]

Yeah he lost it since the season ended :rolleyes

It's one half. You guys need to frickin simmer down.

Kori, is this any different than any game when SA is losing???

This is why I stopped posting during games....everyone always wants to drink the Koolaid when the Spurs are losing or lose.....

:lol

[theMUHMEshow]

Unleash Ely On Nene

hahaha MELVIN!

[aaronstampler]

Nice start.

[OH BE 1 GINOBLI]

Y'all need to calm the fuck down. We're down 2 at half in game 1 of the playoffs. You're gonna have heart attacks if you don't relax a bit. We're playing as bad as possible and it's a two point game. That's a good sign.[QUOTE]

No Shit...everyone needs to relax...if we just play spurs ball in the 2nd well blow them out

[theMUHMEshow]

Melo hit that but if you have Fin on you why wouldnt you back him down?!?

[Jimcs50]

TD....the banksot is his bread and butter again...niiiice

[theMUHMEshow]

...and begin

[boutons_]

Fabs and Michael keeping Spurs in the game. amazing.

[ShoogarBear]

More uncoordination from Tim.

[Ginofan]

looks like timmy is getting into the game

[theMUHMEshow]

Jesus Take Bowen Off Iverson!

[Tippecanoe]

duncan hot

[boutons_]

Tim shooting jumpers, we won't win like that.

[Spurologist]

Spurs Basketball Is Back

[theMUHMEshow]

hahah wow...NENE with a prayer dunk

[theMUHMEshow]

Spurs Basketball Is Back

...looks like it.

[hitmanyr2k]

Bruce Bowen may have hit that three but sometimes I question a play call that ends up with Bruce Bowen taking a three pointer with a man in his face. Duncan is abusing guys on the block and they go away from it?

[Pistons < Spurs]

lol what a bad pass Timmy...

[TDMVPDPOY]

this is sparta - duncan is showin up in 3rd quarter, oh fuck this i got class now

[davemaniscool]

Duncan looks like he drank some jolt

[theMUHMEshow]

Fucking allen! He had Bowen in a knot if he wouldnt have hit is foot.

[ShoogarBear]

God that Bowen guy sucks.

[DDS4]

Besides the brainfart by Tim, great start.

[ATXSPUR]

Duncan just got bailed out for that dumb pass.

[aaronstampler]

Okay now we're rollin. 11-4 to start half.

[SpursFanFirst]

This is MUCH more fun! :clap

[Jimcs50]

God that Bowen guy sucks.


:toast

[Clutch20]

didn't AI just lose the handle on that turnover?
Bowen didn't knock it away.

[T Park]

Now, THATS, Spurs basketball :smokin

[ducks]

pop must be saving bowen for ai in 4

[Admidave50]

Come on, TD and TP are scoring in this quarter!

[theMUHMEshow]

God that Bowen guy sucks.

I love Bowen. I wish to god he was on the Pistons. IMO he is 10x the defensive player that Tayshaun is. I just think that Iverson is too fast for him.

[davemaniscool]

Jesus Take Bowen Off Iverson!

who should take him? Bowen seems to be keeping Cryverson out of the lane

[Slinkyman]

anyone know if bruce played soccer when he was younger? nice kick there! :)

[MannyIsGod]

I'm not going to read this thread because the key to the game is in 3 words below.






Make some shots.Brilliant!

[Supergirl]

Parker and Duncan coming alive, and Manu was the only one I was never really worried about. He'll come alive by the 4th, I predict.

[Clutch20]

Or did Bruce just get inside AI's head...... :lol

[nkdlunch]

yes!!!

[T Park]

Bruce fucking Bowen baby.

With the D, and the O.

Keep setting up that baseline three, hes only a career 44% three point shooter in the playoffs :smokin

[MannyIsGod]

AI went off with Bowen on the bench. Those of you who are bitching about Bruce in this game are clueless.

Continue on as you were.

[Slinkyman]

didn't AI just lose the handle on that turnover?
Bowen didn't knock it away.

bruce kicked that ball. refs missed it.

[Spurologist]

who should take him? Bowen seems to be keeping Cryverson out of the lane

:lol

How can AI argue to the ref when he dribbles the ball off his foot and looses the ball cleanly

[theMUHMEshow]

lmao at calling Ivo "Cryverson" I havent heard that before haha

[T Park]

Fuck I bet that was awesome

I love the playoffs, get a basket on a run, and then a time out.

TIMMMEEEE OUTTTTT DENVER!!!!

:lol

Love that shit.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Why do we always suck in the first game of the playoffs??? Notable examples - losing the first games in 03 (Suns, 2 banked 3s) and 05.

[ShoogarBear]

I love Bowen. I wish to god he was on the Pistons. IMO he is 10x the defensive player that Tayshaun is. I just think that Iverson is too fast for him.Iverson is too fast for just about anybody except Parker. Bowen will do fine on him in stretches, and I bet if it's close in the fourth, that's who will be on him.

[Jimcs50]

Now, THATS, Spurs basketball :smokin

Who were we watching before?

[Supergirl]

Is it just me or is this the longest TO in history?

[Kori Ellis]

I love Bowen. I wish to god he was on the Pistons. IMO he is 10x the defensive player that Tayshaun is. I just think that Iverson is too fast for him.

Well you were bitching when Tony was guarding AI too. Who do you want to guard him? :lol

That's the game plan - Bowen switches between AI/Carmelo. (Fin starts out guarding Carmelo) And TP switches between guarding Blake/AI.

[theMUHMEshow]

2

[T Park]

99 it was game 2, not game 1.

game 1 they looked great, game 2 they stunk.

[howbouthemspurs]

Duncans goin to get his

[theMUHMEshow]

Iverson is too fast for just about anybody except Parker. Bowen will do fine on him in stretches, and I bet if it's close in the fourth, that's who will be on him.

Oh yeah I know. I was just thinking since Ivo draws so many fouls and he has so much speed over BB that saving him for the end might be the way to go...

[T Park]

Elson just fucking stinks.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Oh man... Tim, back Camby down! He's skinny. Shoot over Nene, he's a beast. Work it out, please.

[Supergirl]

Nuggets are really working the refs. Typical Karl game, or is this the refs getting back at the Spurs for last week?

[Jimcs50]

TPark, is this still Spurs' basketball?

[theMUHMEshow]

Gosh Blake cannot hit an open J

[theMUHMEshow]

WTF was that Elson!

[howbouthemspurs]

come on duncan draw the foul!!

[davemaniscool]

lmao at calling Ivo "Cryverson" I havent heard that before haha

Can't take credit for it. It was used alot when Kobe was guarding him and Iverson complained about all the grabbing.

Although it fits him. He weights what 145lbs? If he brushes against anyone it looks like he's thrown across the court.

[Spurologist]

Bowen!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[T Park]

bruce bowen does it again...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Man, we are so out of joint it's ridiculous...

[Otaku]

Turnovers party!

[T Park]

WTF!?!

WHY WOULD YOU TAKE BOWEN OUT!?!?

TAKE finley!!!!

[theMUHMEshow]

bbaamm!

[T Park]

Havent fixed a goddamn thing since halftime.

Not a goddamn thing.

[theMUHMEshow]

What a pass

[theMUHMEshow]

wow TP terrible look

[T Park]

Take Bowen out, Melo gets athree.

shocker...

[Jimcs50]

This is not Spurs' basketball now, right?

[theMUHMEshow]

Iverson looks like a damn joystick

[Tippecanoe]

damn, nuggets run

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Nahera on Tim and he doesn't get the ball... WTF???

[aaronstampler]

We're taking too many stupid shots and commiting too many turnovers.

[T Park]

Yup glad we took bowen out.

The interior defense is pathetic.

COME ON ELSON AND DUNCAN!!!

christ.

[theMUHMEshow]

Take Bowen out, Melo gets athree.

shocker...

Yeah...bad rotation it looked like there...wouldnt happen with bruce in there.

[Jimcs50]

Need to make up our mind if this is Spurs' basketball.

[Dre_7]

Bowen needs to be in the game. His D is too important.

[Darkwaters]

We needed that timeout

[howbouthemspurs]

damn. we need to stop iverson or its going to b hell in the fourth!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

This in now way resembles Spurs Basketball. It is ugly as fark. :depressed

[theMUHMEshow]

You guys like Elson better than Nazr? Gosh Nazr is a bum lol

[hitmanyr2k]

That was more Duncan than anything. The guy didn't even move to block the freakin lane for crying out loud. Just stood there and watched AI go in.

[ATXSPUR]

I am getting impatient. And Parker is sucking tonight.

[T Park]

Bring Vaughn in and sit parker.

Parker has decided not to play tonight evidently.

[Clutch20]

It really can't be because of Camby but ever since he got on Duncan...............

[easjer]

FUCK.

Just fuck.

That's all I'm capable of right now. This is not fun. They have got to start making some fucking shots.

[ATXSPUR]

You guys like Elson better than Nazr? Gosh Nazr is a bum lol

I never did understand why they made that trade to tell you the truth.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I have a feeling we'll lose this game, and it might be good for the team so they WAKE THE FARK UP!!!

[Jimcs50]

This is Spurs basketball in 07...not from 97-06 prior to Dallas series.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I'm glad Pop has decided no one except Parker and Duncan should touch the ball. Denver goes on a 11-2 run while we're treated to Parker getting whistled for traveling going one on three, Parker throwing up a weak pass that ends up a travel on Duncan, and Parker pulling up to shoot an off-balance jumper that barely gets iron :pctoss

Meanwhile Manu, Elson, and Finley stand on the weak side watching it all happen. Starting to look like the damn Lakers series a couple of years ago. Pop is as stubborn as a brick wall.

[T Park]

Yeah...bad rotation it looked like there...wouldnt happen with bruce in there.

The God like Ginobili who is overrated as a defender, just doesn't play good enough D to have Bowen leave and leave a bad defender like finley in.

[Supergirl]

Spurs have taken 4 FTs and the Nuggets 13. Is the reffing really "pretty good" this game? I'm following it on line.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Poor decision making is killing us right now, and EVERYONE is playing as if their bball IQ is about 17...

[Clutch20]

AI's hot, Melo hit his 3, D up and everything else will be ok.

[theMUHMEshow]

Bring Vaughn in and sit parker.

Parker has decided not to play tonight evidently.

I never thought I would see this

[Jimcs50]

Parker is now playing Spurs' basketball

[boutons_]

They're playing Tim physical, he often wimps out in these situations.

[Clutch20]

Parker to Finley, told you, Defense Spurs!!!

[T Park]

I never did understand why they made that trade to tell you the truth.

What trade?

A worthless Nazr for an equally worthless Elson?

Nazr is makin 7 mill a year Elson 3.

yeah i see how that is a bad decision.

[Spurologist]

FUCKING fin

[theMUHMEshow]

Is anyone guarding Fin dog?

[aaronstampler]

Finley's hot.

[Jimcs50]

Now that is Spurs' basketball

[Tippecanoe]

Spurs have taken 4 FTs and the Nuggets 13. Is the reffing really "pretty good" this game? I'm following it on line.

sometimes one team is just more aggressive than the other. spurs arent driving much, they're just jacking up bricks

[Darkwaters]

Finley!

[T Park]

Damn feed fin the ball, dudes feelin it.

[theMUHMEshow]

What trade?

A worthless Nazr for an equally worthless Elson?

Nazr is makin 7 mill a year Elson 3.

yeah i see how that is a bad decision.

Nazr and his bitch tits are wasting on our bench lol

[ColoradoSpursFan]

[Jimcs50]

Parker is really playing Spurs' basketball now

[Tippecanoe]

[Clutch20]

[theMUHMEshow]

[T Park]

[Ginofan]

Parker is really playing Spurs' basketball now

:lol you're killin' me Jim

[theMUHMEshow]

That is odd...NENE hurt? His knee is F'd

[Clutch20]

So Nene's done for season?

[theMUHMEshow]

If NENE is out that is all she wrote.

Too bad they're missing Kmart and NENE

[T Park]

Damn the Nuggets just went friggen huge...

[theMUHMEshow]

So Nene's done for season?

2:1 odds lol

[Clutch20]

Vaugn in and picks up first foul.

[T Park]

WTF Nene is done? What happened?

[Spurologist]

Doug Collins and his closing out quarters rant. Guarenteed every game

[theMUHMEshow]

Vaughn?

[Jimcs50]

:lol you're killin' me Jim

Sorry man, I am just trying to screw with TPark...the master of the cliche.

:)

[theMUHMEshow]

WTF Nene is done? What happened?

Saying movement under his knee cap

[Darkwaters]

Turnovers are killing this quarter

[T Park]

why has vaughn now all of a sudden picked this time, to stink....

[ATXSPUR]

What trade?

A worthless Nazr for an equally worthless Elson?

Nazr is makin 7 mill a year Elson 3.

yeah i see how that is a bad decision.

I am still impressed by Nazr's wonderful rebounding performance in the 05 playoffs.

[Clutch20]

Gino 4 of 12

[theMUHMEshow]

wow..Camby hurt now too

[RashoFan]

Thank you Gino...

[T Park]

Yeah Manu, keep chuckin threes, they've been fallin all fucking night...

[Clutch20]

Gino sprint cross court for layup

[Darkwaters]

Whoa...Ginobili.

I thought he was going to get that stolen about 4 times...but then he took the distance.

[theMUHMEshow]

I am still impressed by Nazr's wonderful rebounding performance in the 05 playoffs.

Against Overrated Wallace

[Darkwaters]

Turnover.

Story of the quarter.

[Clutch20]

Gino stripped it's fustrating

[Jimcs50]

Oberto almost made another buzzer beater
