[Cherry]

Go! Manu :devil

[Spurs Brazil]

bs CALL

[ShoogarBear]

a lot of defensive 3 in the keys being calledOne each.

Whoever made the point about pace is exactly right. The Spurs aren't going to blow them out, but they want to be able to outexecute them in the fourth.

[GrandeDavid]

Another f-ing defensive three second on the Spurs!! I've NEVER seen so many called EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tek_XX]

Spurs just can't get any distance

[jackiel1219]

what's up with all the defensive 3 seconds?

[ducks]

this is a spurs pace game

[MaNuMaNiAc]

That's what I'm talking about damn it!!! 2005 Manu!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

those are ticky-tack calls. I barely NOTICE those..
I doubt they're camping in the lane.

Manu needs to Dunk a couple mroe times to get his three game going, lol.

[BradLohaus]

I've officially seen more defensive 3 second calls tonight then I have in my life to this point.

[PB&J]

Spurs just can't get any distance

they dont need the distance yet, we're on the road! lets keep it close until the fourth.

[nkdlunch]

Amazing defense being played by Spurs.

but we should be up by at least 10 pts.

[Admidave50]

Fuck it, to many 3sec violation.

TD is really angry in the defensive end tonight!

[Tek_XX]

Anybody notice that Iverson is one big flopper.

[ducks]

http://www.sportsline.com/nba/gamecenter/live/NBA_20070428_SA@DEN
best

[nkdlunch]

btw Denver defense is nonexistent

[Crookshanks]

I've officially seen more defensive 3 second calls tonight then I have in my life to this point.
I was thinking the same thing - maybe it's because the game is sooo slow - that's all they can think to call! :oops

[Amuseddaysleeper]

spurs outscoring denve 17-11 so far

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Yeah, great finishing dunk by Manu. That was definitely an "Aggressive" move. Tpark would agree.

[Admidave50]

TP and Manu playing great with 11 pt and 3 asst each!

[ducks]

One each.

Whoever made the point about pace is exactly right. The Spurs aren't going to blow them out, but they want to be able to outexecute them in the fourth.
that would be ducks

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I like how Spurs have picked up their D for the second quarter. Stupid 3-in the key calls though.

[GrandeDavid]

Gregg Popovich is my parents' next door neighbor...well, two houses down. Every year my folks host a Kentucky Derby party before they head to the derby. They invited Pop and he RSVP'ed, but ended up not being able to go, saying that if the Spurs are ever a lottery team in his tenure, he won't miss it. ha ha

[efrem1]

The game is barely an hour old and its almost halftime. A nice fast game.

[T Park]

:lol

Lets hope he misses those parties for quite a few years Grande :)

[GrandeDavid]

Bowen with an EASY layup.

[T Park]

Who was the last defending champ to get swept inagra, for those of us without TVs.

[GrandeDavid]

:lol

Lets hope he misses those parties for quite a few years Grande :)

EXACTLY! Pop is a very nice guy, btw.

[Spurs Brazil]

TD scores!!!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Damn you Mello....

[supaphly119]

spurs, ftw!

[ducks]

lets get lead to 10 by half

[GrandeDavid]

Spurs ball! BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Bs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ShoogarBear]

Robert Horry's foot? WTF?

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

hahaha... .clearly off of robert horrys foot

[GrandeDavid]

BULLSHIT CALL AGAINST BOWEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anthony TELEGRAPHED that move!!!!! How the hell did they call that!!!!!!???????????

[Pistons < Spurs]

that was the correct call. definitely off Horry.

[greenroom]

Can Denver get a call??

[Spurologist]

How the fuck is backing into a defender a foul on the defender???

[ShoogarBear]

Carmelo taking a page from Dirk.

[Admidave50]

bs call again

[GrandeDavid]

Guys, I'm NOT happy at halftime. Denver was atrocious offensively. I'm afraid they'll come out storming in the second half. TheSpurs need the same mentality. Tim, Manu and Tony need to remember that clinching game six in LA in 2003 when they sent Shaq and Kobe to the bench with 5 minutes left in that game.

[ALVAREZ6]

not a bad 2nd quarter.

[Spurologist]

TP is the NBA All Time leader in half time interviews.

[Admidave50]

too bad Spurs couldn't make the last shot!

[Tek_XX]

Can Denver get a call??

I guess you want phantom calls. It's tough when you shoot jumpshots.

[conversekid]

with how we started? To be up at halftime is ok with me.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Barry w/ only 4 minutes? Is he in the doghouse? I haven't seen the other 2 games. Has he not been playing much?

[boutons_]

not pretty, but Spurs lead at the half.

AI only 7 pts.

Spurs started RBing, up to 22 vs 25

Nugg went cold, 38% - 40%. Ugly offense on both sides.

[Phonzie20]

want sum baby?

[easjer]

The defense was WAY tighter in the second half - they need to keep that up and make that happen. The offense had started to flow, they need to maintain that momentum and not come out flat. MUST be aggressive on both ends - see what a difference rebounding makes???

[ALVAREZ6]

with how we started? To be up at halftime is ok with me.Yeah seriously.




Manu finally came to play for once in a first half. The Spurs seem to not be able to start games off well. If it continues, I say start Ginobili. Bring him out, put him back in, then bring him out so we can have him in for 3 different stretches of time instead of only 2 per half.

[Admidave50]

Barry w/ only 4 minutes? Is he in the doghouse? I haven't seen the other 2 games. Has he not been playing much?

He hasn't played much because he's a big defensive liability in this series as he cannot defend on Melo or Iverson!

[Tek_XX]

Barry w/ only 4 minutes? Is he in the doghouse? I haven't seen the other 2 games. Has he not been playing much?

He's invisible out there, no presence whatsoever.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Barry w/ only 4 minutes? Is he in the doghouse? I haven't seen the other 2 games. Has he not been playing much?


He hasn't been playing well lately at all. His mpg have definitely been below what they were during the regular season.

[T Park]

Well some things first, Ginobili's agressiveness is where it should be, props to a fantastic half for Manu.

Parker was ok, a few too many jumpers, but if your open and in rythum gotta take em.

Timmy, 3 of 12??? Good god....


Bowen, and Horry gotta knock those down boys.

Fabricio, if your gonna be in htere, rebound the damn ball dude.


Up 3 at the half.

Play em even for one more half, and i can sleep well tonight :lol

[Kevin Blackistone]

Guys, I'm NOT happy at halftime. Denver was atrocious offensively. I'm afraid they'll come out storming in the second half. TheSpurs need the same mentality. Tim, Manu and Tony need to remember that clinching game six in LA in 2003 when they sent Shaq and Kobe to the bench with 5 minutes left in that game.

98% of Denver's futility in this game has been due to the Spurs defense. They are challenging every shot since Elson left the floor and are giving up nothing easy inside. I think Iverson and Anthony are starting to fatigue from all the minutes logged, and the Spurs defense is really making them work just to get off a shot. If that keeps up in the 2nd half - this game should be just fine.

[ALVAREZ6]

Barry w/ only 4 minutes? Is he in the doghouse? I haven't seen the other 2 games. Has he not been playing much?Well he sucks at defense. He really doesn't match up with anyone on the Nuggets.

[efrem1]

A lot of shooting fouls going against the Spurs. Eight fouls to seven for DEnver yet they have been to the stripe 13 times to our four. A three point is better than nothing, but Pop will still lash into his team for shooting 40% and letting these guys hang around. It could be worse, you could be that blue clad team riding cable cars now.

[ALVAREZ6]

He hasn't played much because he's a big defensive liability in this series as he cannot defend on Melo or Iverson!Or JR Smith, and probably not Steve Blake either.

[ALVAREZ6]

Whats up with all the defenseive 3 second calls?

[ShoogarBear]

This is Spurs Basketball. They aren't going to blow Denver out in game 3. They have to rely on their experience and execution in the fourth.

[boutons_]

Tim having a bad game, 4 - 12 FG

[Tek_XX]

Manu is going to be the key to this series

[ducks]

Whats up with all the defenseive 3 second calls?
jr called out refs in the paper so they think they need to call that

[Tek_XX]

Whats up with all the defenseive 3 second calls?

Sam Smith says "the officials have been told to look for it."

[Otaku]

Manu is having a great game so far. 11 points, 3 rebs, 3 assists in just 13 minutes.

[ducks]

Tim having a bad game, 4 - 12 FG
shooting yes

[Obstructed_View]

It'd be nice if they called one correctly at some point. Seriously, it's like they are just making calls to disrupt the game. They aren't calling some of the harder fouls, but they are calling a ton of ticky tack stuff.

[easjer]

Part of the deal with Barry was the back spasms/injury interfering with his playing time at the end coinciding with Finley being on fire. Barry has contributed in the other games, coming up with steals or a good shot to help out. He didn't blow anything (apart from the shitty 3 second call) in this one and had that nice steal. Lay off him.

[Obstructed_View]

Sam Smith says "the officials have been told to look for it."
Now the officials just need to be told what it is. It's the NBA version of a snipe hunt out there.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Yeah, Manu's started off strong. Tim is having a hard time finishing...but yeah Tony's doing alright a few jumpers that clanked, but so far pretty good. We also started rebounding better with Horry and our Defense tightening up. Let's hope this is just a precursor to a Manu eruption in the second half. So that the Nuggos can boo him even louder for game 4.

[wildbill2u]

Watching Denver on defense, they have decided to leave Bowen alone out on the wing if he wants to sit there. They don't think he will beat them from there.

Meanwhile, his 'defender' is all the way over by the paint, helping to block the driving lanes against Manu and Tony. That's why we're taking so many jumpers and not many drives for layups.

We'll have to shoot a high percentage on those jumpers if they continue that defense.

[ALVAREZ6]

It'd be nice if they called one correctly at some point. Seriously, it's like they are just making calls to disrupt the game. They aren't calling some of the harder fouls, but they are calling a ton of ticky tack stuff.ticky tacky fouls....welcome to the NBA.

[jaespur21]

Fun game every1 having a good time here.....Timmy playin awesome Dfense so far

[ALVAREZ6]

it's about time Manu threw down a dunk...he needed that.


Manu has had a hard time getting open all series long, the Nuggets defenders cover him and follow him all the way out putting every effort to avoid him from receiving the ball, and it works pretty well.

[jaespur21]

pretty good reffing job so far nothin to bad to complain about...not worried about the refs more on our Dfensive boards we would be up 10 if it wasnt 4 second chance pts

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

some were worthy of 3 in the key.

the thing that made it seem annoying is that normally they are passed, today they are called.
well I wouldn't have minded if it was less lopsided.

But when the Nuggets missed a lot of those freebies, I laughed. "Ball don't lie."

[Tek_XX]

ticky tacky fouls....welcome to the NBA.

Yeah it's amazing. Makes you wonder what they teach in NBA school.

"Now make sure you don't call obvious shoves or cracks to the head but if you see Dirk's pinky get touched on his way to the basket make sure you call a flagrant." fuckin assholes

[easjer]

I mind the jumpers less if they are making them - let's hope tjey continue to or at least choose their shots well. I don't mind some of the offensive rebounds they've gotten either.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

well I wouldn't have minded if it was less lopsided.

But when the Nuggets missed a lot of those freebies, I laughed. "Ball don't lie."

that's a sick avatar dude :tu

do you prefer Godfather 1 or 2?

[ALVAREZ6]

Yeah it's amazing. Makes you wonder what they teach in NBA school.

"Now make sure you don't call obvious shoves or cracks to the head but if you see Dirk's pinky get touched on his way to the basket make sure you call a flagrant." fuckin assholesThe 2006 Playoffs were home of the ticky tacky fouls. If it weren't for San Antonio, I wouldn't watch the NBA at all.

[Obstructed_View]

ticky tacky fouls....welcome to the NBA.
They don't call every game like this.

[jaespur21]

Which Spur Are Yall Most Proud Of So Far?

[Obstructed_View]

With the phantom three second violations and the illegal screen calls, I thought we were back in the Olympics.

[ALVAREZ6]

They don't call every game like this.I'm not basing it on this game at all, I don't mind the reffing tonight. I'm basing my opinion over a long period of time, and the NBA calls a lot of bullshit that has no effect on the shooter.

[Deb]

Which Spur Are Yall Most Proud Of So Far?
Manu is playing most agressively right now

[Manu20]

anyone else see tmac's raincoat? LOL

http://www.jessicastyle.org/images/Burberry%20Trench%20coat.jpg

Inspector Gadget! :lol

[Tek_XX]

Actually i dont mind the way this game is being called besides the obvious flavor or the week defensive 3 seconds.

[easjer]

Love Tim's D - Manu is doing well - Bowen is doing well. Nice play by Finley. Horry's been ok on D.

[xamila rey]

VAMOS SPURS CHE!!!! :elephant
Manu playing great the first half,
hope he plays even better to win this game,,
great defensive plays by TD!

[Obstructed_View]

I'm not basing it on this game at all, I don't mind the reffing tonight. I'm basing my opinion over a long period of time, and the NBA calls a lot of bullshit that has no effect on the shooter.
Even worse, tonight they are calling things like the "foul" when Finley tripped and fell, which cost the Spurs an easy basket because they had numbers.

[jaespur21]

yeah that horry block was the Shizzit

[jaespur21]

Tony also...he owns the pepsi center.... i know yall member that OT game Timmy fould out in 05

[Obstructed_View]

I thought Elson's D was pretty good with the exception of when he just completely lost track of his man who was standing under the basket.

[conversekid]

you guys are doing a great job keeping me informed of the game... many thanks! keep it up in the second half... first playoff game i've missed in 15 years :(

[Spurologist]

Tony also...he owns the pepsi center.... i know yall member that OT game Timmy fould out in 05

Damn. TP was on fire in that game. The pull up 3 pointer on the right side ripped the hearts out of the nuggets

[Obstructed_View]

you guys are doing a great job keeping me informed of the game... many thanks! keep it up in the second half... first playoff game i've missed in 15 years :(
Were playoff games on pay per view in SA years ago?

[Borosai]

The game is playing out perfectly to fulfill my prediction.

[conversekid]

no... it's the first one i've missed that i'm able to see... any that have been on tv since back in the day i've seen, or, been at in person.

[jackiel1219]

Elson with the jumper

[jackiel1219]

Damn Iverson is starting to get hot

[bdictjames]

I cant see the game.

So its boxscores for me.

[GrandeDavid]

Duncan with zero fouls. Very good. Just need to weather Iverson's storm.

[GrandeDavid]

Cheezy Steve Blake with the reverse layup. Damn. Yeah, I know, I'm being a sore sport!

[GrandeDavid]

Dunc with a nice tip in.

[bdictjames]

Ok, lets get this going and start a nice run with our defense.

[Tek_XX]

Gee i wonder what the nuggs strategy is this second half?

[boutons_]

both teams really slow, no energy, swapping baskets, looks like a January game.

[bdictjames]

Is Ginobili aggressive tonight?

[GrandeDavid]

Awful free throw shooting by Denver.

[GrandeDavid]

Duncan having his way.

[T Park]

I hope Karl is happy.

Iverson has shot more FTs than Parker :rolleyes

[GrandeDavid]

Is Ginobili aggressive tonight?

No. I'm expecting aggression from him this half, though. They said he has a crick in his neck, that he slept poorly or something. Hopefully he'll get looser.

[WalterBenitez]

up for 3 ... great

[GrandeDavid]

Iverson with the lucky bitch ass shot.

[WalterBenitez]

up for 1 shit

[bdictjames]

Thanks GrandeDavid.

For a guy from Brazil, you seem to hope Ginobili is doing well. Hell they've got Nene in the Nuggs.

[Admidave50]

WTF, stop these bs calls!!

[jackiel1219]

Elson with the block on Iverson

[T Park]

ok i dont think the offense should be running through Cisco now....

[Warlord23]

Why is Elson getting to take this many shots?

[GrandeDavid]

What a grinding, tough ass physical game. I love this.

[hitmanyr2k]

You know. Tony is a fuckin idiot sometimes. Dude has Bowen and Finley WIDE OPEN and he goes one on three and gets blocked. Fuckin Damon Stoudamire clone that can't run a break for shit.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Elson Redeemed his pussy offense

[lefty]

Nuggets fans are the worst in the L

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

You know. Tony is a fuckin idiot sometimes. Dude has Bowen and Finley WIDE OPEN and he goes one on three and gets blocked. Fuckin Damon Stoudamire clone that can't run a break for shit.
Eh, I wish he passed it instead of forcing that shot...

[GrandeDavid]

Thanks GrandeDavid.

For a guy from Brazil, you seem to hope Ginobili is doing well. Hell they've got Nene in the Nuggs.

I'm American, from San Antonio. I manufacture in Brazil and live down here part time. But, for the record, I think Brazilians like Ginobili.

[nkdlunch]

great game.

Elson came to play!

[mVp]

fuck iverson

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Nuggets fans are the worst in the L
:lol they wanted three free throws from Carmelo being a clutz.

[lefty]

Eh, I wish he passed it instead of forcing that shot...
+1000

[Kevin Blackistone]

I'm going to say this once right now - GO THROUGH TIMMY!!!

[Tek_XX]

Parker needs to run a play when it's one on four.

[conversekid]

what did elson do? we (not watching/listening) need details :)

[easjer]

Wow, am I seeing good play from Frankie Elson?

Keep it up son.

But on the other end - you guys are still sucking on offense. Let's work on finishing and good shot selection.

Defense - keep doing what you are doing, I guess. Tough to guard some of those shots AI is taking.

[WalterBenitez]

we need Manu in kick ass mode to defeat these ladies :smokin

[Spurologist]

What happened to the Elson in his first couple of games for the spurs when he was dunking on people. Instead he brings back memories of Sho with soft baby hooks in the lane. Bill Walton should have said, "Throw it Down, big man. Throw it down!!"

[bdictjames]

C'mon Ginobili!!! Get your shit together and play like in Game 2!!!

Parker needs to set up his teammates, specially Timmy and Bruce.

[GrandeDavid]

Nuggets fans are the worst in the L

Well, they haven't yet experienced a championship and are chomping at the bit. I think they're on the verge of being rabid in that regard. However, I think this crowd is pretty subdued thus far.

[Kevin Blackistone]

great game.

Elson came to play!

He's missed so many defensive rotations and has pretty much been the worst player on the floor right up to that one block.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Manu needs to be inserted soon. Those fastbreak opportunities need to be capitalized on

[easjer]

But it was a nice block!

[nkdlunch]

game going spurs way. it would take a big Spurs defensive meltdown to lose this game.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

He's missed so many defensive rotations and has pretty much been the worst player on the floor right up to that one block.
:lol yeah I know. I really want Oberto back in for him or HORRy

[ShoogarBear]

I hope Karl is happy.

Iverson has shot more FTs than the entire Spurs team :rolleyesFixed.

[GrandeDavid]

Tony really has found his stroke. He's punishing Denver with his jumper. Should soften the middle a bit.

[Spurs Brazil]

Another BS call

[GrandeDavid]

Bowen with three fouls now.

[bdictjames]

Sick, Tony.

[Admidave50]

Where Is The Foul?

[GrandeDavid]

Tim with NO fouls, 14 points, 8 boards and at least 3 blocks. Spurs MUST not lose this damn game.

[Warlord23]

Spurs in the penalty already ..

[Crookshanks]

Let's stop this parade to the FT line by the Nuggets! Iverson needs to be knocked on his butt big time - make the fouls count!

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Is it me, or does the offense just seems to flow better when Manu is in there

[nkdlunch]

Spurs got the big guns in the court. champions.

lets go!

[GrandeDavid]

Damn Blake.

[bdictjames]

Melo is going cold tonight at the Stripe.

[WalterBenitez]

Come on Tim ... make that shot ... yep, done

[GrandeDavid]

Shitty effort by the Spurs on that possession. Didn't chase the board.

[Warlord23]

Offensive fucking rebounds

[davemaniscool]

refs not letting the spurs play physical defense

[conversekid]

yahoo sports play by play WAY better than espn.

[hitmanyr2k]

If they're going to put Iverson on Ginobili why not post him up and see what comes of it?

[bdictjames]

Timmy D is shooting in the second half.

[jackiel1219]

bad shot by tony

[ambchang]

What's with the Spurs, aren't they driving to the basket? How can they be attempting for 3s than FTs?

[Spurs Brazil]

Finally FTs for us

[WalterBenitez]

Kepp going TIm, we need your shots

[Crookshanks]

Is anybody else tired of hearing "Nene"? It's such a gay name - it sounds funny everytime they say it.

[nkdlunch]

what the FUCK is parker doing?!?!?!?!?

[bdictjames]

Oh, NO!

[conversekid]

what did he do?

[GrandeDavid]

Timmy hits both free throws. He's gonna eat Denver alive in the 4th quarter.

[GrandeDavid]

Ugly shot put by Duncan.

[Admidave50]

looks like pop wasn't happy, Tony is on the bench

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Timmy's a ballhog.

[Crookshanks]

Iverson to the line again! I guess George Karl's bitching worked after all!

[jackiel1219]

Manu needs to get involved

[GrandeDavid]

Denver Has A Huuuuuuuuuge Advantage At The Free Throw Line!

[T Park]

i cant even watch, and i can see

Bitch about the refs = more free throws next game

[WalterBenitez]

what the FUCK is parker doing?!?!?!?!?
being parker, what else :p:

[hitmanyr2k]

Duncan certainly has gotten lazier with his shot selection over the years. He can get a better shot than that.

[bdictjames]

I agree. At least Timmy has a good game.

I really think our defense should be upped a lil bit more.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Iverson to the line again! I guess George Karl's bitching worked after all!
I didn't even see that crap. That's so annoying whine like a bitch, to get what you want.

He had bad parents.

[Tek_XX]

It's almost like tim settles for some freak circus shot because he doesn't want to fight for anymore ground.

[Deb]

Need to get Manu involved again

[nkdlunch]

what did he do?

he fucking shot a 3 :pctoss

and we had plenty time in shotclock

[GrandeDavid]

If they're going to put Iverson on Ginobili why not post him up and see what comes of it?

Exactly. Actually, Ginobili needs to take him to the hole and if Camby comes over kick it to a big man.

[boutons_]

Nuggs +7 on FT pts

[Duncanoypi]

Is anybody else tired of hearing "Nene"? It's such a gay name - it sounds funny everytime they say it.

NENE means 'little girl" in the Philippines... :lol

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Duncan certainly has gotten lazier with his shot selection over the years. He can get a better shot than that.


I agree


He isn't getting as deep into the post as he likes

[easjer]

FUck me. Their offense is shit. Why are they settling for this? Fuck me. I really wish they'd just play marginally better. I'm not asking for a blow out, I'm asking for a tiny little cushion, so they won't have to dig themselves out of a fucking hole.

Oh, and I really hate seeing Vaughn out there. I really, really do.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

we've only taken 6 ft's


gay

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Manu needs to get involved
He will.

[boutons_]

Tony's got no aggression, just settling for jump shots, is really trying every time to penetrate

[nkdlunch]

NENE means 'little girl" in the Philippines... :lol

it's not nena? in spanish, nene is little baby boy

[GrandeDavid]

The Spurs will win this game.

[YODA]

Can somone explain why the Spurs are not even trying to push the pace at least after miss shots. Seems to me that parker really slowing it up on purpose. Im sure thats what pop wants, but we usually push it up a little more then this. blahhh, its getting on my nerves


Yoda

[boutons_]

Spurs RBing down again in 3rd, now 26 - 33.

[easjer]

UGH. I want better shot selection here. I want more aggression from everyone.

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley 33333333333333

[GrandeDavid]

He got the nickname "Nene" because he always hung out with older kids, hence he was the "baby".

Damnit, I'm f-ing sick of Iverson and Denver living at the f-ing free throw line. Spurs need to play aggressively to draw fouls.

[Warlord23]

Go Findog!

[Crookshanks]

Spurs need to be much more agressive - make the refs call the fouls.

[boutons_]

AI gonna beat us by himself

[GrandeDavid]

I guess we won't be seeing my fellow University of Cincinnati alum, James White, in this game.

[bdictjames]

Findog!!!

[efrem1]

Outrebounded, outshot and more fts for Denver yet we're still up two. Gotta take advantge of their weak bench and wear them out in the fourth.

[Crookshanks]

AI gonna beat us by himself
At the freethrow line! :depressed

[bdictjames]

Who's on AI?

[Spurologist]
