Be prepared to LOSE tonight!

[tlongII]

The Spurs are fat and happy. Yes, that's right. Fat and happy. Tonight they will run into a team that is hungrier, younger, and as talented as the Spurs. Everybody's bagging on Portland because our franchise rookie center went under the knife, but they are ignoring that the Blazers already have a wealth of talent. Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge, Martell Webster, Jarrett Jack, etc. etc... The list goes on and on. The Spurs will fall behind early and will not be able to catch up tonight. BOOK IT!

Oden should be a force tonight!




















































































Sorry... thats just mean from me... ;)

Oden should be a force tonight!

Roy is not 100% healthy for tonight's game.

tlong is right -- I'm predicting Blazers 156, Spurs 29.

Roy is playing tonight. He has a problem with his heel and will most likely have surgery after the season, but it's nothing that will keep him out of regular season games.

Tlong, don't worry about tonight. Your Blazers will be better next year when Oden is back. But for now, let me comfort you with a few words from the Gospel. The Phoenix Suns are the sword of righteousness and it is their destiny to end the Dark Age of ugly thuggish basketball that the Spurs have imposed upon the universe. The Suns are the ultimate finesse team in a finesse sport. They are the true saviors of the league in a time of troubles.

The Spurs are the Devil. They are so evil that they don't even bother to play against the opposing team, but instead attempt to circumvent and defeat the NBA rule book directly. The Spurs are that group of old guys who you used to play pick-up games with at the YMCA when you were a kid. You and your friends are way better than them, but they always manage to beat you at the very end because they are cunning masters of every cheap trick in the book.

That's the Spurs, and that is why they are hated by everyone outside San Antonio. But as I said, fear not gentle NBA fans, for the darkness will soon be ended. Good shall triumph over evil, and the Suns shall dethrone the Spurs this year to usher in a new Golden Age of beautific basketball.

But with TD signed up and cap space, they'll have to wait another 4 years.

When the suns lose, in the minds of their fans it's every one else's fault but their own team's. Because how could the run'n'gun flash and dash awesomeness of the Phoenix suns ever lose? Its just impossible!
Those damn evil dirty Spurs. Its not that they play basketball the way it is supposed to be played, or that they have incredibly talented players and a hall of fame coach. Its not that they have consistently been in the post season for almost a decade and have won four championships with teamwork and discipline. Its not that the character of the team actually brings them closer together in tough times instead of crumbling under pressure. No. Its because they are a bunch of dirty, cheap, underhanded backstabbing bullies.

It's this type of thinking that keeps your team from a championship. Winners look within. Losers point the finger.
The Spurs style of basketball is more beautiful than the Suns because the Spurs system starts with defense FIRST. The Suns regard defense as an annoying afterthought. This is an unfortunate by-product of D'Antoni's basketballl philosophy. They might put up 120 points every night but what does that matter when you give up 135? We all saw how Steve Nash crumbled in game 6 when Bruce Bowen was harrasing him. Pressure.
Good defense will beat good offense. always. just like good pitching will beat good hitting in baseball.

And just so you know the Spurs are not hated by everyone outside of San Antonio.

The Suns do not have the character of a championship team, and that is why they fail.

sorry to be off topic. I cant help but lay into the occasional suns troll.

Portland did do a lot better than I thought they would. Of course, The Spurs were giving them open jumper after open jumper it seemed. Weird. I guess in the first real game of the season they arent too crisp with those defensive assignments yet.

[Findog]

C'mon, Spurs fans, you have to root for your team to drop at least one of their first ten games, SpursDynasty made a bet with mono that they'd go 10-0. I think he has to leave the forum for the rest of the regular season if they lose one.

It was a good game. Both teams played hard.

[tlongII]

I was encouraged by the game. Our defense wasn't very good, but that's the way it's going to be until next year with Oden. Roy didn't shoot well, but I'm sure Bowen had something to do with that. Aldridge is a stud. I still think we can make the playoffs.

I got it and I thought your message was funny as hell. I can understand why you chose a biblical context seeing as how the Spurs got all Sodom & Gomorrah on the Suns. Every time they get close to the forbidden fruit, the Spurs have their way with the Suns minus the KY. Or as God said to Jonah as he sounded the trumpets, "Sun you blew it!" :lol

Actually Bowen seemed to be a half step behind. Or Roy got quicker.

[T Park]

TLong,

in all seriousness, your team is very good. I put money on them getting the 8th seed this year.

They are VERY VERY good. Very impressed with their games last night.

[FromWayDowntown]

I don't know about the rest of you, but I for one took tlong's advice and was prepared to lose. In fact, I had created a list of at least 40 excuses to explain away a loss -- everything from my belief that Tim Donaghy had bet on the game to Nate McMillan's subtle efforts to trip up Spurs players. Since the Spurs won, though, I burned the list.

Seriously, I agree with everyone else who's said it -- the Blazers are going to give teams a tough night all season long and are going to be a real contender in the very near future. Add another lottery pick to that bunch, along with Oden, and that, coupled with the able-minded management of Kevin Pritchard is going to make that bunch really, really salty in the very near future. I could see a rise for them next year that would be very much like the rise that the Spurs made in 89-90, when David's naval commitment ended and the Spurs added Sean Elliott at the same time.

[T Park]

IMO they grab the 8th spot and dont get in the lottery.
