[ChumpDumper]

It is the regular season after all.

[ChumpDumper]

Barry in at the 2:00 mark of the 2nd.

[ChumpDumper]

Hedo: 1 miss

Barry passed up a wide open shot to pass to a covered Bowen.

[ducks]

steve 2-10 what is happening jim

[ChumpDumper]

Spurs quit moving the ball. Overpenetrating and still trying to take it up.

[ChumpDumper]

Duncan stops a 6-0 run

[ChumpDumper]

Magic take the lead.

4 Spurs watching Duncan.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Orlando defense playing zone. We need a zone buster.

Pull the trigger Pop.

[ducks]

hedo coming in spurs can get lead back now

[ChumpDumper]

Will Barry even take a shot?

It would be nice.

If we're going to trust someone to not fold --

[ChumpDumper]

I'm all for trying Barry though. 2 minutes isn't enough to meet my qwhottta.

[ShoogarBear]

Is this what Pop means by "back to Spurs basketball"?

Sure does look familiar on offense.

[ducks]

3:31 SA - R. Nesterovic enters game for T. Duncan

[ALVAREZ6]

how are we losing?

[ChumpDumper]

Not playing Beno enough it appears.

Can't stop Mobley to save our lives, 4 guys stand around and look at Duncan getting collapsed on after posting up way too high against this team.

[ducks]

B. Udrih misses a layup

[ducks]

why is manu not shooting more?

[ChumpDumper]

Udrih = everything whottt wants from Barry.

+ he takes and makes shots

[ShoogarBear]

This is the 2001-2002 playoffs all over again.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Is this what Pop means by "back to Spurs basketball"?

Sure does look familiar on offense.

True dat 'Sug.

28-12 in the third, Orlando over SA. It's obviously all Barry's fault[/pop]

Why is it that Orlando runs a 2-3 zone and we think we need to go into Duncan more to beat it. Dumb dumb dumb.

[ChumpDumper]

Dr. Schwartz is wearing a fucking ugly shirt tonight.

[ducks]

M. Ginobili makes a 23-foot three-pointer from the right corner.


that is the zone breaker not barry

[ChumpDumper]

3pt Manu; assist Udrih

Hedo 2 misses.

Udrih shuts him down :spin

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

why is manu not shooting more?

Shooting gets you benched.

Sincerely,

[NO LIMIT ARMY COMMANDER]

ATTAQ THE RAQ. REPEAT. ATTAQ THE RAQ.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

It's Manu time.

[ChumpDumper]

Um you guys are missing Udrih doing everything you say Barry can.

[ducks]

beno is why barry is getting his butt on the bench

brown has something to do with it to though

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Actually Manu is keeping Barry on the pine right now.

Not that I'm complaining.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu is a beast.

[spursupporter]

7min left...Magic leads by 4. GO SPURS!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu with 9 in the fourth, 7 minutes to play.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu + Beno = :makemyday

[ChumpDumper]

Shooting gets you benched.

Sincerely,

http://www.nba.com/media/playerfile/brent_barry.jpg

Oh really?

Sincerely,

http://www.nba.com/media/playerfile/beno_udrih.jpg

[ChumpDumper]

Damn us to hell for teaching Hedo how to play D.

Slaps ball off of Udrih -- Magic ball.

[Marcus Bryant]

The kid is for real.

[ducks]

hedo needs to get fouled in act of shooting and brick some free throws

[ShoogarBear]

Devin!!!!


And One!!!!

[ChumpDumper]

Holy shit! Brown with the thunder dunk!

(Thanks to Beno's pushing the ball)

[Marcus Bryant]

Beno to Devin. Nice.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

4 minutes left in the fourth...

Manu 11
Orlando 10

[Marcus Bryant]

Damn. Something good came out of Slovenia after all.

[ducks]

spurs are ahead

[Marcus Bryant]

Malik.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

As an aside, howabout the Knicks? Up 16 at half, lose to Detroit 94-93.

[ducks]

SA - Offensive foul on B. Udrih

[ChumpDumper]

Beno with 8pts 6ast in 15min

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

That guy sucks.

[ShoogarBear]

Malik with the AHF Special!!

[Marcus Bryant]

MALIK FUCKING ROSE FUCK ALL OF YOU WHO SAID HE SHOULDNT SHOOT THE BALL NAMELY AGGIEHOOPSFAG.

[ChumpDumper]

Assist: Beno (7)

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Everyone's gotta hit a jumper at some point, even Marcus Cryant's daddy.

[ChumpDumper]

Hedo with the seemingly scripted miss

[ducks]

QUIT YELLING

other teams would live with him taking that shot 17 feet away

I would bet real money he misses over half the time from that far away

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Damnit, Spurs are back to passing it into Tim and standing around.

[ShoogarBear]

Damn, Devin just got abused.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Put the ball in Manu's hands, rinse, repeat.

[ChumpDumper]

We are lucky Francis and Mobley are having Rocket flashbacks.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Devin with the Malik special down low :lol

[ShoogarBear]

dribble dribble dribble dribble

[JUUOT]

go hedo one more miss would be perfect

[ShoogarBear]

Devin with the TP Special!

[ChumpDumper]

All part of the learning process with Devin.

Comes right back with the lolipop.

[ChumpDumper]

Supersmall Spurs

[ShoogarBear]

Weird lineup: TD, Manu, Beno, Bowen, Devin?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I don't have any problem with it Chump, just making a joke.

Hedo missing when it matters, where have I seen that before?


EDIT: make that TWICE. :lol

[ShoogarBear]

Hedo Layup Drill!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Traveling? BULLSHIT

[ChumpDumper]

Hedo with the Hedo special!

[ChumpDumper]

Sean didn't see the travel because it's exactly the bunny hop he used to do before driving.

[mattyc]

Beno has balls.

And smarts.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Sean didn't see the travel because everybody in the damn league does it, and it's a no call. What a crap call.

[ducks]

two more misses hedo

draw up a three point attempt for hedo

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Francis did the exact same shuffle as Manu just now. What a fucking crock.

[SuperManu!!!]

http://olivia.canal13.cl/medios/data/Deportes/Basquetbol/ginobili_spurs_l.jpg

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

These refs suck. EOM.

[ChumpDumper]

Manu was close to getting a T.

I'd be pissed too if Hedo grabbed a crucial board away from me.

[ducks]

foul them do not let them shot a three
spurs luck hedo will hit it

[myhc]

What do you do, foul them right away and dont let them even attempt a 3?

[Spurminator]

Never thought Francis would be the one taking the shot.

[ShoogarBear]

Nice job, Stevie F! Where have we seen THAT before?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Franchise dribbles out the clock and forces up a bad shot at the end vs. SA.

Damn, where have I seen that before? :lmao

[ChumpDumper]

Francis dribbles out the clock.

Again.

Back to you, Jim.

[Walton Buys Off Me]

Is this game in Orlando?

Could have fooled me.

Worst officiated game I've seen since the parade to the free throw line last year against the Lakers.

Clearly there was some money changing hands before this one. This is embarassing to the game.

[ZStomp]

Francis dribbles the game away!! ......again :lol

[Duncanoypi]

woooohh...that was scary!....

great 4th quarter run by the spurs. :elephant :elephant

Spurs won by 3 94-91

[ducks]

steve is an idiot

[Im Here Huckleberry]

I didn't get to watch the game, was this an ugly game?

[ShoogarBear]

I didn't see the first half.

The third quarter was straight out of the 2001 or 2002 playoffs. Dump to Tim, three guys standing outside the 3-pt line.

Fourth quarter was the Beno Udrich show.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Don't forget Manu 'Shoogar, 11 points in the quarter, couple of boards, couple of assists.

[timvp]

Nice job. Extra thanks to Deep South for starting this thread.

:hat

[boutons]

"was this an ugly game?"

At best, a weak game, esp defense.

In the 3rd quarter, Spurs had yet another ugly offense (score 12) and defense (allow 28), completing a 23-point negative swing, to start the 4th qtr down 10.

Spurs defense sucked for 1st 3 quarters, allowing the Magic to score at a rate of over 100 PPG @SBC, vs Spurs' avg PPG allowed of 86.

The rotation was certainly tighter, with TD, MG, DB, and BB all between 32 - 39 minutes. TD @39 mins tells the tale: no TD = no RBs, no offense. RB, Brent, Wilks all under 4 mins, and TM DNP-CD.

Such weak efforts won't win vs MIN and PHX this month at @SBC.
