Round 1, Game 2: Spurs vs Nuggets Official Game Blog Thread

[01Snake]

Get Horry the fuck out

[Tek_XX]

Ok tim come back in the game.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Terrible possession - get another scorer in the game, please!

[ducks]

Will Spurs Need Tp And Duncan In The Fourth?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Great D - Off foul and AI turned ankle!

[ChumpDumper]

dueling flops

[aaronstampler]

I think we got away with one there. I think the foul was on Bruce.

[T Park]

BTW, its too bad the Danny Crawford game came tonight instead of game 4.

[ducks]

Do Not Turn The Ball Over

[hitmanyr2k]

Iverson anticipated that pass so great it looked like an interception in the NFL :lol It was just a pretty steal.

[lefty]

Lefty - Tim's spent a lot of time on Nene, but it has been swapped around (Nene victimised Elson at least twice)

Thanks

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Ginobili needs to be more selfish.

[Tek_XX]

Will Spurs Need Tp And Duncan In The Fourth?

Yep.

[Mojazz]

Where are the Nugget fans tonight?


Is there any?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Melo is getting every call tonight.

manu TO

Get Tim or TP in there, seriously

[ducks]

i GUESS SPURS NEED DUNCAN

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

76-65 Spurs

[Mojazz]

yeah boy... GO SPURS...

[ChumpDumper]

Very quick recovery by AI from that viscious ankle twist.

[Admidave50]

wow Iverson misses a lot of layups!! why didn't Manu go to the hoop?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Manu drive and bucket

[lefty]

Wtf? Barry isnt even in the game

As I said, i can't watch the game ; I'm just trying to be a part of this :cry

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuu for 2

[hitmanyr2k]

Spurs fighting over rebounds...what a pretty sight lol.

[aaronstampler]

Manu's getting hot.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I Love Aggressive Manu!!!!!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuu again

[Mojazz]

Bring Back TD and TP...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Manu pullup

i was right at half-time, I said he'd hacve a big 2nd half.

great team D again

[ducks]

Manu Better He Is The Only Scorer On The Court

[Tek_XX]

Spurs would be volleyball champions.

[nkdlunch]

Finally Spurs playing like champs.

Manu woke up.

Vaughn is a madman. going for EVERY lose ball possible, or impossible

[aaronstampler]

Manu's scoring even playing with 4 scrubs and the whole Denver defense keying on him. Maybe Pop thinks he's a decent player after all.

[Mojazz]

15pts lead... yeah!

GO SPURS...

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I like Vaughn's hustle. He does great on Carmelo. He's so pesky :lol

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Point is, we've kept a good lead with Tim and Tony sitting. ;)

Well done Manu, and well done 2nd team D. :)

[Kobulingam]

Did you guys see that steal by AI after rolling his ankle. Cause of that was Manu playing like more of a pussy compared to 2003. He could have gone to the rim there but he remembered that slap to the face JR Smith gave him earlier.

[nkdlunch]

yup Manu is playing w/4 bench players vs. all starters from Denver

[01Snake]

Manu's scoring even playing with 4 scrubs and the whole Denver defense keying on him.

Manu doing his best Kobe impersonation. :lol

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Manu's scored 13 of the last 15 points for the team. So yeah, and it feels good knowing Tim and Tony aren't in, so we've got a good chance at putting this away once they come in.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Yeah, JV is a hustlemaniac!

I love him as long as he DOESN'T SHOOT THE BALL. :LOL

[SpursFanFirst]

Point is, we've kept a good lead with Tim and Tony sitting. ;)

Well done Manu, and well done 2nd team D. :)

I agree :spin

[nkdlunch]

Vaughn playing very good defense.


Finley playing very good defense too!

[T Park]

Maybe Pop thinks he's a decent player after all.

or maybe hes become GASP AGRESSIVE!!!

[GrandeDavid]

I love the fact that Tim is getting so much rest. Sort of a statement to Denver...now I hope that doesn't come back to bite us in the ass. ha ha

[Kori Ellis]

TPark - just so you know your seats are open at the arena tonight.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Nice new HEB commercial.

[lefty]

Manu's scoring even playing with 4 scrubs and the whole Denver defense keying on him. Maybe Pop thinks he's a decent player after all.

That's what I was waiting for ; FINALLY !!!!

Remember in 2005 when Manu had the ball in his hands almost everytime

[Tek_XX]

Did you guys see that steal by AI after rolling his ankle. Cause of that was Manu playing like more of a pussy compared to 2003. He could have gone to the rim there but he remembered that slap to the face JR Smith gave him earlier.

Good point pussy.

[T Park]

yeah im waiting for Manu to break out the "were not the most talented team" :lol

[aaronstampler]

I'm guessing now Pop will come back with Tim and Tony and Manu will sit.

[T Park]

TPark - just so you know your seats are open at the arena tonight.

I got paid for em. Im good :smokin

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Nene's biggest failing - poor TOUCH around the hoop. How many layups has he missed tonight?

[SpursFanFirst]

Nice new HEB commercial.

I wish I could see that!

[T Park]

youd think ginobili takes seat, hes played like 9 straight minutes

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Tim and TP back, Manu sitting, 3 from Fin

[T Park]

man lets not discount Fin dog, 12 points SEVEN rebounds.

Awesome fin dog :tu

[aaronstampler]

or maybe hes become GASP AGRESSIVE!!!


Seriously dude, don't talk to me until Pop plays Tony for one second without Manu or Timmy. He never leaves Tony naked out there like Manu. That's all you need to know.

[hitmanyr2k]

Finley has one of the prettiest strokes in the NBA. I can't believe he shoots such a low percentage during the year.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

84-67

Good luck there

[bigfish22]

I think someone near the Spurs bench beat up on the scorer's table!

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

I wish I could see that!

It's Tim, Bruce and Barry in the practice facility and they're going to have an eating contest with the new HEB "HEBoritos."

Tim and Bruce then trick Barry into eating the whole big bowl while blindfolded.

[Mojazz]

Woooohoooo...

Very big comeback for the SPURS after kicking there ass on the 1st game...

[01Snake]

Come on. Jesus!

[T Park]

Seriously dude, don't talk to me until Pop plays Tony for one second without Manu or Timmy. He never leaves Tony naked out there like Manu. That's all you need to know.

:lol

yeah, cause Parker has never had to do that :lol

[gilmor]

Seriously dude, don't talk to me until Pop plays Tony for one second without Manu or Timmy. He never leaves Tony naked out there like Manu. That's all you need to know.

Who the fuck cares as long as we win..

so Manu >> Tony.. happy?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

84-71 on two nice touch hoops by Nene... oops, my bad! :lol

[lefty]

Finley has one of the prettiest strokes in the NBA. I can't believe he shoots such a low percentage during the year.


It happens sometimes ; Majerle had the same problem when he joined Cleveland in 1995 ; he couldn't get anything in from 3

[nkdlunch]

damn, put Oberto back in, he's the anchor of the team :D

[01Snake]

Woooohoooo...

Very big comeback for the SPURS after kicking there ass on the 1st game...

Ain't over yet.

[ATXSPUR]

fuck nene

[mattyc]

Well, this is better. Shut down AI and got Fin Dog into the game.

Finish em off.

[Kori Ellis]

I got paid for em. Im good :smokin

Everytime you've ever sold them in the last few years, I have never ever seen anyone sit in them.. :lol

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Fuck Nene.

[nkdlunch]

Nene's biggest failing - poor TOUCH around the hoop. How many layups has he missed tonight?

WTF u talking about NENE is killing

[T Park]

It's Tim, Bruce and Barry in the practice facility and they're going to have an eating contest with the new HEB "HEBoritos."

Tim and Bruce then trick Barry into eating the whole big bowl while blindfolded.

"real funny"

:lmao

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Guys, argue somewhere else - this is the game thread, let's keep this positive flow going and not jinx our team.

[Admidave50]

They must find a way to stop Nene!

[ATXSPUR]

Woooohoooo...

Very big comeback for the SPURS after kicking there ass on the 1st game...

Please dont jinx us

[T Park]

yeah, Nene with 15 is wailing on em, but they've only let him have 4 rebounds.

BIG improvement.

[nkdlunch]

put Manu back in. It's Manu time!!!!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

nkd - until just then he'd missed about 4 easy layups on smaller players.

I laid the jinx, sorry. :(

[aaronstampler]

:lol

yeah, cause Parker has never had to do that :lol


Ask Kori about it. Tim is on the court with Tony for 85% of his minutes and Manu is the other 15%.

[01Snake]

put Manu back in. It's Manu time!!!!

No kidding.

[nkdlunch]

nkd - until just then he'd missed about 4 easy layups on smaller players.

I laid the jinx, sorry. :(

For some reason, nene gets pumped up when Duncan comes in.

Nene plays his best when Duncan is in :bang

[Tek_XX]

What kind of name is "nene" Dumbass Brazilians.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Who the fuck cares as long as we win..

so Manu >> Tony.. happy?

You haven't been around SpursTalk long, have you?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Yeah put Manu in, along with Tim and Tony. It's fourth quarter time

[Mojazz]

come on SPURS...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I didn't say nene is shit, I said his touch has been poor... until I said that, then he made two beautiful touch baskets. oh well.

[T Park]

WTF< why did Duncan go out!?!?

[Kori Ellis]

I swear it's like TPark and aaronstampler can't read - STFU ABOUT MANU AND TONY

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

man, i wish Oberto could jump. :(

[ATXSPUR]

sprus are trying to lose this game

[SpursFanFirst]

I want this game over NOW!

[01Snake]

Wtf!!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

uhhh wtf was that Tim?

[Tek_XX]

Wow the Spurs are going to blow it.

[ChumpDumper]

I swear it's like TPark and aaronstampler can't read - STFU ABOUT MANU AND TONYYou should make them mods.

[Mojazz]

Sorry guys...

Get back to the game!
.

GO SPURS GO...

[ATXSPUR]

strip and basket just as I say that.

[Capt Bringdown]

Oberto is our leading rebounder?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

nevermind!

good job!


:lol

[GrandeDavid]

Tension. Damnit.

[bigfish22]

Flying V!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Uh-oh, Spurs have forgotten how to play

great break, cmon lads!!!

[easjer]

Another 2 off a Bowen strip. Nice.

[hitmanyr2k]

Great defense Bowen...beautiful pass Ginobili.

[SpursFanFirst]

I swear it's like TPark and aaronstampler can't read - STFU ABOUT MANU AND TONY

:lol AMEN!

[Admidave50]

What kind of name is "nene" Dumbass Brazilians.

"nene" means "tits" in French, he should be a big pussy..

[Spurs Brazil]

TD!!!!!!

Spurs up 13

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Tension. Damnit.

Welcome to the Playoffs
:smokin

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

86-76, need a bucket

[GrandeDavid]

Damnit, Melo.

[ATXSPUR]

timeout!

[NBA Junkie]

Another nifty pass from Manu.

[hitmanyr2k]

No more jumpshots for the Spurs....get to the basket.

[Kori Ellis]

Come on Spurs

[Ginofan]

come on spurs!!! GET IT TOGETHER!!!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Okay, nugs are now hot like I feared.

GO SPURS GO!!!

[GrandeDavid]

Ugh.

[JustSpurs]

Why is Parker even in there?

[Spurs Brazil]

TD to the line

[Spurs Brazil]

TD to the line

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Where's TD??? Post, don't jumpshoot!

[SpursDynasty]

I think it's funny how the Nuggets want to come out with all these fake jump shots. They should just quit the playoffs now.

[hitmanyr2k]

One mis-match they're not even looking to exploit is Iverson on Ginobili. Post him up.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

tim looks very hesitant out there


we shoud've gone for the kill but instead the nuggs are coming back strong

we need to win by at least 12 to send a message

[Capt Bringdown]

Spurs showing signs of a choke, need a basket

[Kori Ellis]

Bowen has been awesome today. I'm sure some people will whine about his play somehow. But he's been great.

[01Snake]

Get it together! FUCK

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Uh-oh, we officially have the jitters.

C'mon lads, show some sack!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Td 1/2

[Mojazz]

"nene" means "tits" in French, he should be a big pussy..

"nene" means lady in Tagalog (Filipino words)

nene = tits+bitch :lol

[ATXSPUR]

Parker You Idiot!!!!

[aaronstampler]

Tony...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

BULLSHIT call

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

What the fuck are you doing Tony? One on two? Fucking idiot.

[Spurs Brazil]

Damn TP

[hitmanyr2k]

Sigh Parker...what's the rush? Run the clock and get a good shot.

[Ginofan]

Perfect example of why people get mad as hell at Tony Parker.

[Kori Ellis]

Come on Spurs.

[01Snake]

What a joke. Come on Spurs

[Amuseddaysleeper]

this game just got pathetic

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

6pt game... oh hell

[GrandeDavid]

Ouch, three by Iverson.

[Mojazz]

their fukking up this forth quarter...

[hitmanyr2k]

Parker redeems himself....good shot.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Good call on Parker, dumbass play to even put himself in that position.

Under 5 minutes and we have gotten one point from Duncan. Can we run a play for the one guy with a pair of huevos? He wears #20.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Parker clutch J off TD feed

[Spurs Brazil]

TP big shot

[Mojazz]

all hell brake loose...

[T Park]

fucking spurs

gonna give me a goddamn coronary

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Perfect example of why people get mad as hell at Tony Parker.

But it was an aggressive near turnover and offensive foul, man I love that guy [/Tfart\

[nkdlunch]

fucking bitch ass refs trying to keep this game close !!!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Ginobili's looking for his patented steal

[GrandeDavid]

Shitty refs!!!!!! Ginobili got fouled!!!!!!!!!!!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Nuggets were ALWAYS going to go on a run some time, now do we have the guts to stop it?

I think we do.

[SpursDynasty]

The Nuggets can't win a playoff game vs the Spurs.

[Ginofan]

Open your fucking eyes ref, you can plainly see that Manu is being shoved out!

[midgetonadonkey]

Spurs need Beno now more than ever. Only he can seal this game.

[SpursFanFirst]

I think I have ulcers starting...we need to finish this!!!

[Mojazz]

MANU...

where r you?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

fucking spurs

gonna give me a goddamn coronary

What do you care, as long as we are fucking up on offense with aggressive turnovers?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

even if denver loses, they are gonna have a shitload of confidence heading home with the Spurs being less than intimidating on their own floor

[Admidave50]

wtf there was clearly a foul by Blake

[RashoFan]

Come on Spurs.
Believe
Let's Go SPURS!!!!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

The Nuggets can't win a playoff game vs the Spurs.

Um, how is that helpful, they already have???

Stop with the jinxing, seriously.

[bendmz]

Crawford's ghost is ALIVE...........................

[ATXSPUR]

im gonna be sick

[E20]

What kind of fucking bull shit is that? Blake was clearly holding Manu's jersey and no foul!!?!??! Holy shit, Danny Crawford get some glasses for shit's sake.

[SpursDynasty]

Spurs play with more edge on the road than at home. Roadcourt advantage going into Game 3.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

MANU...

where r you?

Sent to the weakside while Pop runs his 1-4 pick and roll crap.

[nkdlunch]

Shitty refs!!!!!! Ginobili got fouled!!!!!!!!!!!

yup. so are you watching the game now???

I thought they were not showing it in brazil?

[Mojazz]

Time left???

anybody?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I know... we didn't get the call...

but hopefully we get another play going

[GrandeDavid]

MANU...

where r you?

Getting shoved out of bounds without the tune of a whistle.

[ATXSPUR]

even if denver loses, they are gonna have a shitload of confidence heading home with the Spurs being less than intimidating on their own floor

screw intimidating...at this point I will take the win.

[Capt Bringdown]

Denver's got to be feeling pretty good about this series, even if they lose this game.
Spurs look very beatable.

[nkdlunch]

Crawford's ghost is ALIVE...........................

:lol

[GrandeDavid]

2:55 left.

[Spurs Brazil]

Time left???

anybody?

2:45

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

we just need to show some determination, and make good decisions.

If we don't we don't deserve to be here.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

What kind of fucking bull shit is that? Blake was clearly holding Manu's jersey and no foul!!?!??! Holy shit, Danny Crawford get some glasses for shit's sake.

Retribution

- Joey Crawford

[RashoFan]

Time left???

anybody?2:41
Spurs 89 Nugs 81

[Mojazz]

thanks...

[Spurs Brazil]

Horry in for Oberto

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Go Spurs Go!!!

Let's Get Loud!!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Parker is the definition of anti-clutch.

[GrandeDavid]

Tension. Damnit.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

89-83

[JustSpurs]

Jeez, I picked a bad day to quit sniffing glue!

[Mojazz]

Oh man...

crunch time!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Parker shouldn't shoot the ball again in this half. Give the fucking ball to Manu.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

ohhh no camby

we got lucky as shit

[bendmz]

Camby big fuck up

[Spurs Brazil]

OMG Camby missed the dunk

[GrandeDavid]

Denver is feeling it. C'mon, Spurs, get it done. This is a major character test. The Spurs win, they know Duncan can play better...

[hitmanyr2k]

Is anyone guarding Nene?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Damnit, Horry has got to step up and take the charge from Nene.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Camby Misses Wideopen Dunk!!!???

[chaco]

yup. so are you watching the game now???

I thought they were not showing it in brazil?

P2P Tv ?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Ginobili!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[Spurs Brazil]

1:12 to go

Spurs up 4

[hitmanyr2k]

Ginobili....typical.

[aaronstampler]

yes!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Manu HUGE layup

[bendmz]

Ginoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[RashoFan]

Go Spurs Go!!!

Let's Get Loud!!!

[hitmanyr2k]

Iverson is ridiculous :lol

[Mojazz]

Let the clock runs out...

cmon pop! win this one!

[GrandeDavid]

Ginobili!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

If Parker is going to suck on offense the least he could do is play some D on Iverson.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Iverson HUGE 3

91-88

[hitmanyr2k]

Duncan answers...the stars are showing up.

[RashoFan]

Timmay!!!!

[aaronstampler]

Huge basket by Timmy.

[easjer]

That Duncan guy is clutch. Who knew?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Awesome postup by Timmy

[GrandeDavid]

Tim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

i am so pissed at this team

should NOT have come down to this


we'll be lucky to get a split in denver

[Spurs Brazil]

Td Clutch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Horry For 3!]

Iverson is shooting out of his mind, he is makin some lucky ass shots.

[NBA Junkie]

It's about time Timmy does something!

[nkdlunch]

wow wow wow

3 prayers from AI answered!!!!

But Duncan came through!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[aaronstampler]

If Parker is going to suck on offense the least he could do is play some D on Iverson.

AI scored on him pretty much every possession this quarter.

[Mojazz]

team only score 15 this quarter...

Faggets got 25...

[T Park]

Iverson can't friggen miss.

Is goddamn Bowen on him?!?

[Leetonidas]

You'd figure Iverson would come on some time.

But that missed dunk by Camby was great. No one even touched it. :lol

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

If Parker is going to suck on offense the least he could do is play some D on Iverson.

WTF?

AI pulled that shot out of his ass.

What more did you want Tony to do?

[Tek_XX]

Duncan: "YEAH BOY"

[mattyc]

Ugly last stanza, but we are okay.

[Brutalis]

that shoulda been and1....

[SpursFanFirst]

please end...please end...please end... :depressed

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

What happened to him the other night? His post game tonight has been superb

[aaronstampler]

Iverson can't friggen miss.

Is goddamn Bowen on him?!?


No TPark, our best player is on him.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

i am so pissed at this team

should NOT have come down to this


we'll be lucky to get a split in denver

We better get a split in Denver.

[GrandeDavid]

This will redefine harsh if we lose this game now. It ain't happenin, damnit.

[nkdlunch]

Spurs win. but they got work to do....

[hitmanyr2k]

I can't believe George Karl didn't scream "FOUL" when Tim got that low. He's guaranteed to brick at least one foul shot...especially in a tight game. I expected hack-a-Duncan.

[JustSpurs]

We need to sprout a pair and finish this.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Alright Timmy, Manu, not letting us buckle at AI's amazinggg punches

[E20]

Shit, Tony I love you to death, but follow Pop's advice and stick to penetration/layups, no fuckign jumpers. Spurs WILL PULL OUT with a win here.

GO SPURS GO!!!!!!!!!!

[Horry For 3!]

Iverson can't friggen miss.

Is goddamn Bowen on him?!?
No, Parker.

[Mojazz]

5pts with less than 1min...

GO SPURS GO...

[sprrs]

Can they every play a whole game for once? THey only played the 4th Sunday, and now all but today.

[rasho8]

This is annoying.. how many times can we let a big lead slip?

[JustSpurs]

27 seconds

[hitmanyr2k]

Cmon Duncan...prove me wrong lol...knock down these damn FTs.
