Spurs vs. Lakers - Nov. 13 Game Blog

[timvp]

It's always good to beat Kobe Bryant, Phil Jackson and the Lakers. The Lakers always seem to play well against the Spurs. Hopefully the Spurs can overcome some matchup difficulties and show off their talent and depth advantage.

[Mister Sinister]

SO glad I have off work tonight. I'll be able to watch tonight. I'm getting psyched already.

[Darkwaters]

They just finished showing the .4 game on NBAtv. Pissed me off...

Lets pull a Patriots and run the score up on these fakers.

[duncan228]

It's one of those games that carries emotion no matter when it falls in the season.
A team we want to beat.
Let's hope the Spurs bring it.
If they play like they've already shown us they can this early in the season it should be a win.

[Mister Sinister]

Oh, this game is going to rock. I have Mallrats and, of course, ST on my laptop, and I'll have the game on tv. Damn this two hours before the game starts!

[SKINNYPIMP210]

[mikejones99]

Manu is the MVP of the leaugue so far this year. Spurs should crush Lakers.

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

hopefully this isn't repeat of what happened last season

[anjlbitz]

Let me win my $5 vBookie bet, Bowen!

[easjer]

Sounds like I have some deleting to do on my DVR when I get home.

[Leetonidas]

Yeah, no kiddin'. You don't have AIM, do you?

[MaNuMaNiAc]

At what time does the game start??

[Mister Sinister]

8:30 ET, so 7:30 for me.

[nenerojer]

830 pm for you..for me 2.30 am

[MaNuMaNiAc]

10:30 for me then

[Kermit]

So, is this game being shown on NBATv, because it says blackout on the screen (I live in Austin).

[nenerojer]

So, is this game being shown on NBATv, because it says blackout on the screen (I live in Austin).In Europe nba tv...Suns :wtf

[Ginobilly]

Is it True Ian might go to the Toros? Fuck that, they need to send Jack Vaghn to that team. The way mahinmi is playing we need to develop him in the Spurs.

[Leetonidas]

Yeah, no kiddin'. You don't have AIM, do you?
Of course I do, but I never get on due to some freaky chick who is obsessed with me

[Ginobilly]

Just got back from HEB. I got the beer Rotation going already, put a few in the freezer and the rest on the bottom. :drunk Oh yeah i didn't forget the blunts :hat

Go Spurs Go!

You don't use the invisible function?

[duncan228]

The game is blacked out on NBA TV because I'm in Laker land.
I'm watching the Lakers pre game show on the local channel where they just ran...yes, what else, but the whole .4 sequence.
Why I watched I don't know.
It's heartbreaking to see it again.

They're making such a production about it because Fisher is back with them.

It's looking like a mute night on the call for me. I can't take the Laker guys talking at me all night.
They're almost as bad as the Miami and Boston guys.

[E20]

Here's something to watch before the game starts:

Spurs vs Lakers 2003 Playoffs WCSF Part 1

http://youtube.com/watch?v=e8p9RtiDVRM
Spurs vs Lakers 2003 Playoffs WCSF Part 2

Always nice to see Kobe and Fisher crying and watching the Spurs '03 team dismantle the Lakers 3-peat squad. :toast

Gotta miss SJax. :lol


http://youtube.com/watch?v=snWr4kuwY5w
Also another fond series. :tu to Steve Kerr! :lol

[loveforthegame]

Hopefully the Spurs can overcome some matchup difficulties and show off their talent and depth advantage.

Finley is going to get dismantled guarding Turiaf or Odom. Not gonna be pretty there.

[dbreiden83080]

Come on lets beat these guys down so bad, Kobe will refuse to even fly home with his teammates.

[Sp Ginobili 20]

She never gets off and it seems like everytime I sign on she IMs me and if I go invisible she starts complaining about how I'm trying to avoid her. -_-

[Jimcs50]

My man Josh Becket is at the Spurs game tonight.

Do you know how to work that?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

:lol Bowen is the worst finisher ever

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

and Parker is the best

[SuperManu!!!]

Come oooonnnnn Vbookie!

[Spurologist]

Tp is in the zone

[Sp Ginobili 20]

Do you know how to work that?I have the same question. It won't work with Mozilla.

[carina_gino20]

:lol bruce, just stick to the corner, ok?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

damn what a goal tend.

[ShoogarBear]

Kobe isn't guarding anybody. Spurs need to camp Bruce out at the arc.

[Supergirl]

My man Josh Becket is at the Spurs game tonight.
:clap

Awesome! Take a pic!

[Spurologist]

Bruce mother fucking Bowen creates another turnover

[ShoogarBear]

:lol Bowen is the worst finisher everIt's painful sometimes.

[Spurologist]

Do you know how to work that?

you have to download sopcast first then copy and paste the link into your browser

[loveforthegame]

I can't believe we have a 1 point lead with the way we're shooting and being outrebounded. Thanks for the Laker turnovers I guess.

[Supergirl]

Spurs shooting a woeful 3-14 to start the first quarter, no one but Tony and Tim have figured out where they put the basket so far. But it's early. In the season, and in the game.

[Spurologist]

TD needs to get down on the block and stop shooting jumpers or fadaway one handers. 4down

[carina_gino20]

E20 check your pm

Bruuuuuuuuce

[SAtown]

Nice hack by Kome to get that steal :rolleyes

[ShoogarBear]

Guys, I don't know what sopcast is, but make sure that you're not pubbing sites for illegal video here.

[Spurologist]

Since when does Bynum get all star calls

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

why Bowen??

[ShoogarBear]

WTF was that Bruce? :lol

[hitmanyr2k]

Damn, Parker is a bit trigger-happy at the moment.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

WTF was that Bruce? :lol
he threw it over entirely without hitting the backboard or the rim... whatever he's doing in practice on the O end.... It's not showing any results. :lol

[loveforthegame]

Pitiful start. Painful to watch right now.

[Spurologist]

kobe on parker will never work for the fakers

[jinglejangle]

Lakers look like they will run out of steam already.
Spurs just need to connect with the basket.
I'm looking for that classic third quarter Spurs run.

[SAtown]

Nice move by Tony blowin by Farmar

[ShoogarBear]

Did Farmar even move his feet on that?

EDIT: yeah, I guess so

[santymrc]

I have the same question. It won't work with Mozilla.

Guys that a Sopcast link, download sopcast and you'll be watching the game the same way I do.

[Johnny RIngo]

Spurs are playing really sloppy right now. Can't believe they're only down 4.

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

nice fake gino

[SAtown]

I'm looking for that classic third quarter Spurs run.

i thought the 3rd was the worst quarter for the Spurs...

[SAtown]

Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuce

[Spurologist]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

manu fakes the pass outside and floats it right over the outstretched arms of Bynum for the floater deuce. Bynum might have broke a finger nail.

Bowen in the left corner. 333333333333333333333333333333333

[Tek_XX]

Good to see Bruce hitting those threes.

[ShoogarBear]

Way to close the quarter. :smokin

Kobe looks out for blood tonight.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

kobe on parker will never work for the fakers
Parker will torch him. He's too fast.

[Tek_XX]

Way to close the quarter. :smokin

Kobe looks out for blood tonight.

Ehh it's probably just anger.

[ShoogarBear]

Maybe Tim will decide to join the proceedings now.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

manu fakes the pass outside and floats it right over the outstretched arms of Bynum for the floater deuce. Bynum might have broke a finger nail.

Bowen in the left corner. 333333333333333333333333333333333
I thought that was a nice floater.

Bynum swatted at nothing :lol

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Maybe Tim will decide to join the proceedings now.
Tim started whining early, but he'll be back.

[santymrc]

I thought that was a nice floater.

Bynum swatted at nothing :lol


The announcer said "he make him look stupid", jajaja

[ShoogarBear]

Ehh it's probably just anger.No, I think Kobe truly enjoys playing Bruce and the Spurs. He gets geeked up for the challenge.

[loveforthegame]

Nice timely 3's by Bruce tonight. Love watching him drain those.

Ginobli (1-4), Finley (0-4), and Duncan (1-6) need to hit some shots now and we should be ok.

[ShoogarBear]

Farmar with some ooops offense.

[SAtown]

Farmar from WAY downtown

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

yan !

[Tek_XX]

Farmar hit's a lucky shot.

[ShoogarBear]

Luke is looking more like his ugly daddy these days.

[ShoogarBear]

Ian got abused.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

aw poor Mahinmi gets put in, and gets taken out

[Spurologist]

Farmar hit's a lucky shot.

:lol

You can tell from his reaction. He wasn't exactly expecting it to go in.

Elson might want to box out Bynum

[Tek_XX]

Luke is looking more like his ugly daddy these days.

Oh you thought he was cute before?

[E20]

Well this iscool because I can watch the game now. Washington just check in and Mahinimi.

[SAtown]

Manu heating up

[Spurs Brazil]

Ian in early

Joel Meyers sucks

[ShoogarBear]

Dammit, Elson

[easjer]

I liked them better at the end of the last quarter. Sigh.

[SAtown]

Joel Meyers sucks

He used to do Spurs games on the local broadcast. Damn traitor

[carina_gino20]

E20, check your pm again

[Spurologist]

You guys getting Ian being in from a play by play? I haven't seen him on the floor. I think it's still Elson

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Nice timely 3's by Bruce tonight. Love watching him drain those.

Ginobli (1-4), Finley (0-4), and Duncan (1-6) need to hit some shots now and we should be ok.
Manu did a good job in answering the dry spell, luckily we got Duncan back in.

[easjer]

It looks to me like Pop is tinkering. He must feel like a) he needs another loss in advance of the Dallas/Houston back to back and/or b) that the first unit is finally back in the groove.

[easjer]

You guys getting Ian being in from a play by play? I haven't seen him on the floor. I think it's still Elson


No he was in for about a second. They mentioned it in the broadcast. Then he got yanked.

[SAtown]

Farmar in Finley's face. WTF? Videogame shit

[Spurologist]

Dear Pop,

It's time to turn to your playbook page that says TIM DUNCAN.

[easjer]

I don't like this broadcast on NBAtv. I don't know if I'm more sensitive or if the announcers are worse but local broadcasts did not bother me so much last year.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Farmar in Finley's face. WTF? Videogame shit
Laker's are getting good fastbreak points...

that needs to stop. We need to step on these guys necks. Not let them hang around!

[Spurs Brazil]

He used to do Spurs games on the local broadcast. Damn traitor

I remember him. I had League Pass here in Brazil in 01 and 02 and he sucks. I never liked him.

[Tek_XX]

Dear Pop,

It's time to turn to your playbook page that says TIM DUNCAN.

Yeah 4 down brings back so many good memories against the Lakers.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I don't like this broadcast on NBAtv. I don't know if I'm more sensitive or if the announcers are worse but local broadcasts did not bother me so much last year.
the Laker broadcasts are SO Homerish. They are completely blind. They also point out meaningless no calls. In this game today alone it's annoying.

[easjer]

Timmy looked distinctly annoyed. Heh.

Farmar is one big eared dude.

[SAtown]

Hell yeah, Bonner in. All is well

[Spurologist]

No he was in for about a second. They mentioned it in the broadcast. Then he got yanked.

ahhhhh. Pop's way of welcoming him to the NBA

[easjer]

the Laker broadcasts are SO Homerish. They are completely blind. They also point out meaningless no calls. In this game today alone it's annoying.


Yeah, I found that particularly annoying. No calls go both ways.

[easjer]

OMG, Timmy. Hold on to the ball. What is that the second or third time he lost it?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Spurs are lazy on Hustle

[E20]

Fin for 3!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

damn Kobe has a lot of turnovers

[easjer]

Good job Fin!

[SAtown]

Phil Jackson always looks so out of place sitting so damn tall. :lmao

[ShoogarBear]

We have one of our sightings of Timmy Turnover tonight.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Parker is doing great

[Spurologist]

Snappy Jones: "looks like kobe's right hand was being held"

WTF. Snappy Jones has already lost his brain. God forbid if he looses his eyes

[Russ]

Joel Myers just said "Fish is back to the scene of the crime." I always liked Joel. :)

[easjer]

I'm happy with the way Tony is playing in the paint tonight.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

We have one of our sightings of Timmy Turnover tonight.
Timmy looks off tonight. I wonder if he's just mad and annoyed today being surrounded by douches. I know he doesn't like the Lakers and all , but he should start playing.

[dbreiden83080]

Come on Tim, gotta get yourself going out there.

[hitmanyr2k]

One thing that has always annoyed me about Kobe is that damn "HEY" he always has to yell when he makes a mistake. During the three-peat era a whistle would blow a half second after he yelled that shit. I'm so glad the refs don't fall for it anymore.

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs getting annihilated on the boards again, 24-11. This may turn out to be another Houston game.

[E20]

Nice spin move by Parker.

[Tek_XX]

Phil Jackson: foot work expert

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

One thing that has always annoyed me about Kobe is that damn "HEY" he always has to yell when he makes a mistake. During the three-peat era a whistle would blow a half second after he yelled that shit. I'm so glad the refs don't fall for it anymore.
He's the loudeest guy on court.
It trickles down too.
I saw a Laker player cost his team, because he stopped defending Manu, pointing at him while looking at the the referree, and Then Manu drove for the lay up because of his whining.

[easjer]

Spurs getting annihilated on the boards again, 24-11. This may turn out to be another Houston game.


Hopefully the other things going right will prevent a similar outcome.

The better teams are highlighting our defensive deficiencies. Not worried about it at this point, but they definitely are there.

And fuck yeah, they need to get the fucking rebounding together this week. I guess I'd lose it tonight if they pick it back up Thurs/Fri.

[SAtown]

Duncan blocked by Kobe

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

No Timmy... No.. :depressed

that was a weakass attempt to score.

[hitmanyr2k]

Tim bringing the weaksauce shit tonight. Perhaps getting that ball shoved back down his throat will wake him up.

[ShoogarBear]

WTF did Bonner think he was doing on that switch?

[mystargtr34]

Timmy playing worse than the Houston game... hasnt even grabbed a rebound... fuck me

[ShoogarBear]

Fuck!!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

i don't get that scoring attempt by Duncan at all?? Does he know we're playing a game?

[easjer]

I would kind of like Bonner to play or not play, but stop not playing on the fucking court.

[Tek_XX]

Tell Tim Duncan no more pussy layups.

[mystargtr34]

Damn.. Tim is being embarrassed

[ShoogarBear]

Kobe is not defending anybody. He's just camping in the lane.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

:lol @ Kwame's hands

[SAtown]

Bonner with a reverse layup

[ShoogarBear]

Good 'ole Kwame.

[Spurologist]

Bonner with a nice cut inside, TD feeds him and Bonner hits a nice reverse layup

[carina_gino20]

shit. we're going to see that block replayed at least 50 times this year.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Duncan' trying on the defensive end at least. I don't like the look on his face though!

[ShoogarBear]

Dammit, another Bonner defensive screwup leads to Duncan picking up a foul.

[Tek_XX]

I thought that was Ginobili with that reverse but nice play bonner

[SAtown]

shit. we're going to see that block replayed at least 50 times this year.

And the steal (hack) by Kobe with the fastbreak dunk.

[Spurologist]

Bonnnnnnerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[SAtown]

He's on FIRE! Red rocket

[easjer]

How are we up in this game? They look terrible, except for short bursts of playing well together? Sheer luck? Conversion off turnovers?

Bonner! There ya go!

[ShoogarBear]

LMAO @ Turiaf trying to D up Tony.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

shit. we're going to see that block replayed at least 50 times this year.
It's Duncan's fault too.


Duncan saved by a goal tend call.

[ShoogarBear]

Timmy get a cheap one.

[Spurologist]

TDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDdddd

with a not so convincing goaltending basket via Turiaf.

But it still cooooooooooooouuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnnttttttttttttttt tttssssssssssssss

[hitmanyr2k]

Even if that's goaltending goddamn Duncan...take that shit to the rim like you mean it. It's obvious the Lakers have brought some defensive intensity tonight. Stop finishing like a fuckin punk.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

How are we up in this game? They look terrible, except for short bursts of playing well together? Sheer luck? Conversion off turnovers?

Bonner! There ya go!
It's the Lakers.

[E20]

Bonner with a trey finally!

[Spurologist]

Duncan' trying on the defensive end at least. I don't like the look on his face though!

It's always good to take a pre-game dump before matches

[anjlbitz]

Omg Bonner Get A Tan!!!!!

[SAtown]

Omg Bonner Get A Tan!!!!!

He can't. He's a gotdamn GINGER

[ShoogarBear]

Holy crap, I've never seen so much traveling called before in an NBA game.

[easjer]

I knew LA had a lot of TOs but I didn't realize it was 15.

Bonner looks like he's hitting a rhythm. That would be so nice.

[Spurologist]

Bonner can't miss another deuce inside from a pass from tp

[SpursFanFirst]

He can't. He's a gotdamn GINGER

Ummm...HEY NOW! :(

[anjlbitz]

He can't. He's a gotdamn GINGER

Mystic tan works too lol

[SAtown]

Ummm...HEY NOW! :(

jk :smokin

[easjer]

Yes, Yes, Bonner, Yes!

[ShoogarBear]

Rad Rahkat!

[Admidave50]

Offense is fucking rolling

[Sp Ginobili 20]

Damn Bonner!

[Spurologist]

Bowennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn from TPppppppppppppppppppppppp

[ThomasGranger]

Good to see the Spurs finishing the half strong.

[ShoogarBear]

They've been sagging all game. The Spurs are finally taking advantage.

[easjer]

Spurs are closing quarters well. I like the way the played the last 6-7 minutes. I like that.

[ashbeeigh]

I think it was mentioned in an article when we signed Bonner that he was on Kobe the night of his like 68+ point night. He's like 'Gtfo, bitch." He better keep it up.

[SpursFanFirst]

FINALLY...the Pacer game is over and I might actually get to watch the Spurs game! :clap

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Bonner is our Laker killer

[dbreiden83080]

Seriously how GOOD are the Spurs right now that Timmy played his worst half in years maybe ever and they are up by this much??

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Stupid announcers.

[peskypesky]

lol at all the people who said Bonner was worst Spur. He has twice as many points as Duncan and 3 times as many boards.

[Johnny RIngo]

Never thought I'd see the day where Bonner goes off on a team. Damn.

[easjer]

I'm happy with a lot of their play. Happy that Bonner is finally looking decent. Would be happy if Timmy looked less pissed off/bored/annoyed at being there.

More rebounding would be terrific!

[carina_gino20]

can tim look any more bored?

[SpursFanFirst]

Dallas is losing to Philadelphia???

[ShoogarBear]

It's a 3-fest. 6 for 11.

On the boards, though, Spurs down 18-26. :(

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Seriously how GOOD are the Spurs right now that Timmy played his worst half in years maybe ever and they are up by this much??
I think if the opposing team didn't have turnovers, we would be down by 8 or something. Against a great team , we'd be behind a little at the half because they would have capitalized. The Threes woulda kept us close I guess regardless. So it's good that our bench guys can make up for Tim sucking.

It also helps that it's the Lakers too.

[loveforthegame]

Bonner's been sucking it up but it's good to see him wake up tonight. Especially on a night where Duncan is struggling and the team was trying to give away one to the Lakers.

Nice finish to the half by the Spurs. Don't let up now.

[Medvedenko]

Brutal game so far....way too many turnovers....wish the refs would call travel and palming violations on TP and Manu...oh well, home cooking. Nice......at least call it even.

[mVp]

Bonner for MVP

[Manu20]

The lakers with 15 turnovers in the 1st half!!

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Brutal game so far....way too many turnovers....wish the refs would call travel and palming violations on TP and Manu...oh well, home cooking. Nice......at least call it even.There's the excuse! Laker fans never fail

[Medvedenko]

Bonner shooting well, that's for sure. TO's are killing us. Kobe playing all world D and Lamar is playing like a punk....

[Spurologist]

Damn. Tp is seeing the floor really well. Excellent fucking passes.

1. Early in first, he drove in off of a nice cut, jumped in the air, and fed TD inside for one of his 2 baskets inside for an AND1

2. Recognizing cuts and dishing it out quickly. Passed to the hot hand many times (Bonner)

3. Isolation on Odom. Fakes right, drives left, attracts the weaks side defender from the left side. This leaves Bowen WIDE OPEN in the left corner

Combine that with tp's scoring and he's ALL WORLD

[ShoogarBear]

Brutal game so far....way too many turnovers....wish the refs would call travel and palming violations on TP and Manu...oh well, home cooking. Nice......at least call it even.Can't blame you. I'd be pissed, too.

Especially since this may be Kobe's last game in the AT&T as a Laker . . . :lol

[Medvedenko]

There's a reason phil took a time out after the 4 step spin Tony pulls out....travelling....now we are our own worst nightmare this game...too many balls thrown away.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Brutal game so far....way too many turnovers....wish the refs would call travel and palming violations on TP and Manu...oh well, home cooking. Nice......at least call it even.
I'll say you could give or take a travel call from the Lakers and calll more violations on the Spurs, because they were pretty ticky-tack for calls against you guys. 5 travel calls??

Other than that, Lakers are still getting out played. Their defense fell asleep on our guys on the wing, regardless of the officiating.

[Spurs Brazil]

TP with a great 1st half, 16pts 6asts

He made things happen in the 1st half

Bonner and Bruce also with big 1st half

[ShoogarBear]

Houston only up on the Griz by 3.

[Medvedenko]

Yeah, 5 travel calls....I haven't seen 5 calls like that in 5 games. Still, we can't contain penetration.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

can tim look any more bored?
I liked Tim's block and steal play at the end though...

but yeah, he looks pretty ho-hum about it all. :lol

[hitmanyr2k]

Christ...Scola got murdered on that dunk :lol

Dude took a dive to the canvas.

[Spurologist]

Holy shit. Did anyone else just see the Rudy Gay slam on Luis Scola. Automatic sportscenter top 10. It'll be #1

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I hope we don't kill the Lakers too much. I still want to see Kobe go off, maybe. Make it more competitive.

[jaespur21]

love the way the spurs ended the half. hopefully it stays this way

[anjlbitz]

Wow.The Memphis arena looks damn near empty

[Medvedenko]

I see a better second half....Odom must go off though and prove that he's a good 2nd option.

[hitmanyr2k]

Holy shit. Did anyone else just see the Rudy Gay slam on Luis Scola. Automatic sportscenter top 10. It'll be #1

I saw it and :lol my ass off.

[anjlbitz]

I hope we don't kill the Lakers too much. I still want to see Kobe go off, maybe. Make it more competitive.

Do you really want to make it more competitive or do you have vBookie money on the line?

:lol :lol

[easjer]

Houston only up on the Griz by 3.


Go Grizz!

:dramaquee

If by go off you mean score between 21 and 27 points, then I agree wholeheartedly. :lol

[Tek_XX]

Does Manu have braces?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

TP with a great 1st half, 16pts 6asts

He made things happen in the 1st half

Bonner and Bruce also with big 1st half
Parker's been playing pretty perfect. Finds guys, and finishes. It's made up for Tim Duncan's offensive woes, that's for sure.

I really like our 3 shooters too when they pick up the slack for others. It's a pretty tight team.

[Sp Ginobili 20]

Does Manu have braces?I believe he does.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Well, yeah, I still want Bowen to keep him below his average. :lol

But I'd like to see our guys trade baskets with him the rest of the way.

Fred Carter: "The Spurs always let you get back in. They didn't against Milwaukee though."

:lmao

[Spurologist]

FINNNNNNNNNNNNNn for the deuce after oberto off rebound

[easjer]

We're back.

[Sp Ginobili 20]

Magnets.:lol

[Mister Sinister]

Fin Funnel!

[Mister Sinister]

Toooony!

[Sp Ginobili 20]

Damn. Duncan is sucking ass.

[Mister Sinister]

Bruuuuuuuuuce!

[ShoogarBear]

Damn, Bruce, please stop doing that.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

:clap Bowen finally

[easjer]

I'd like them to go up over 20 up. That'd be nice.

[Spurologist]

Bruce just made one of his 10 driving layups of the season

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Bowen's 1 out of 565 lay up attempts.

[easjer]

Damn, Bruce, please stop doing that.


Agreed.

[Mister Sinister]

Way to go Fin.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

oh look, they've gone into Kobe mode! :lmao

[ShoogarBear]

Another Laker turnover, damn those refs!

[easjer]

Mmmm. Spurs need to score or the lead will disappear quickly.

[Mister Sinister]

Damn it, Timmy.

[hitmanyr2k]

Tim brought the weak offensive game tonight. He hasn't made a strong move all night. If he does this against Houston again chalk up another loss.

[Spurologist]

TD with a fadaway jumper. WTF.

Pop would've chewed out the spurs if kobe made that 3

[Mister Sinister]

TP, Nice!
