[Tek_XX]

Fair to say Marcus' play was inconclusive.

[Sweetey]

he has 12, but his +/- is +24
Thanks. I'm a girl and I don't understand some of that stuff. Sorry.

I"m a "Bottom Line" girl. And we just WON ! wooooooohoooooooo !

[themvp]

[ChumpDumper]

Fair to say Marcus' play was inconclusive.We can now safely waive both Manu and Brent.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Look out for chode residue in the lower level of the AT&T Center.


We can now safely waive both Manu and Brent.

:lmao

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

That was one nice block by Marcus.
Can't really tell anything about him tonight since he only like 1 1/2 minutes but at least he had one positive.

[bigfundamental21]

Spurs shot 47% from 3. Awesome.

[spurs1990]

What number is Williams?

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

What number is Williams?
33

[spurs1990]

33

Antonio Daniels is gonna be pissed.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Antonio Daniels is gonna be pissed.
You think Antonio is gonna pissed?
Wait til James White hears the news.

[ChumpDumper]

Looking forward to the Game Thoughts, Timvp.

"Spurs 1st West team to get 20 wins"

Same as last year, had best record in NBA at 20-6, then they went 13-12 for Dec-Feb.

[T Park]

Good old boutons with the sunshine :lol

Way to be optimistic there frenchie.

Preaching to the choir. Guess I don't give a shit about the regular season anymore... the Spurs have been playing for May and June since the mid 1990's.

Still nice to see even in coast mode, the Spurs are the best team in the stronger conference.

[TampaDude]

Build a big lead...then sub and coast...

20th WIN!!! GO SPURS GO!!!

[Manu20]

What happen to Barry? In the yahoo's box score they have him playing a little over a minute.

[ChumpDumper]

What happen to Barry? In the yahoo's box score they have him playing a little over a minute.Aggravated his calf injury. Might miss some games.

[Manu20]

Aggravated his calf injury. Might miss some games.
:pctoss

Time for Udoka to show the Spurs coaching staff if he can contribute or not.

[ChumpDumper]

:pctoss

Time for Udoka to show the Spurs coaching staff if he can contribute or not.Well, Ime was +25 in 25 minutes tonight. Seems like he's off to a good start.

[SequSpur]

Well, Ime was +25 in 25 minutes tonight. Seems like he's off to a good start.

yeah, he should start.

[T Park]

If he can contribute?

Like the great defense and good shooting that he showed tonight?

This is finally udoka's chance to shine, and hes gonna prove to be a damn diamond.

[ChumpDumper]

I like how he punches opponents in the face without getting ejected.

back off the shakes bro, he ain't no diamond.

[T Park]

You'll think he is when he shuts down Josh Howard in the playoffs and the Spurs beat the Mavericks, thanks to him being the missing small ball piece.

:rolleyes

The Mavs have to get by the Warriors and the Lakers first.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

haha


Udoka will not shut down Howard


he'll shut down Stackhouse, but not Howard

Bowen can't even shut down Howard consistently.

[SequSpur]

haha


Udoka will not shut down Howard


he'll shut down Stackhouse, but not Howard

Bowen can't even shut down Howard consistently.

you act like Howard is Kobe Bryant. Howard ain't shit one on one. He is only as good as a wide open jumper takes him.

[jmard5]

Aggravated his calf injury. Might miss some games.

Dammit. (Remembers McDonald's article)

And the curse continues... one comes in, another goes out.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

he isn't kobe bryant but he kills us everytime. I'm not saying he goes off for 40, but somehow I don't think Udoka is our answer to Howard and keeping him off the boards.


You could argue that Howard is the most complete/versatile player on the Mavs.

Don't get me wrong, I want Udoka to succeed as much as the next guy, and he looked good tonight, but let's not get carried away so fast.

Udoka can handle Howard easily. Did you not watch him tonight? WWHD?

Jason Terry scares me more than he does.

Yeah, because, his defense is a flash in the pain as well as his shot......


Your such a pessimistic sad sack its sad.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

flash in the pain?



I am no more pessimistic than you were in 2005, don't worry


Howard >>> Terry

I know Udoka is being groomed to being our next Bowen but to make claims that he would hit that level by the end of this season alone is reaching a bit.

[T Park]

but to make claims that he would hit that level by the end of this season alone is reaching a bit.


This BTW, is the same Josh Howard who, in the game here in SA, Michael Finley defended well!??!

My bad :lmao

[Amuseddaysleeper]

bwahahahaha

dude, Howard shot 58% from the field in that game, and was one rebound away from a double double

http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=271205024


If that's Finley defending him well, I'd hate to see what happens when he has an off night defensively.


Howard has ALWAYS been a thorn in our side, and unlike Nowitzki, when Howard's shot is off he can contribute in so many other ways.


Is he a top 5 player in the league? No

Can Udoka perhaps make it slightly tougher on him than Brent Barry would? Yeah, but once again, let's not count our eggs before they hatch. For all we know Udoka could go back to the bench once Manu returns.

And of all the games to make Howard look bad you had to use the one where he goes 7/12 along with 9 boards and 3 assists

really?

[T Park]

How about rewatching the second half of that game, instead of using your out of the ass stats.

yes that game, cause, I WATCHED IT.

[SequSpur]

Spurs got this.

Eggs counted.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

oh I didn't watch the game T Park, I simply pulled those stats out of thin air

give me a break, while Finley may have defended a shot or two well against Howard, you are really over reaching.


You're also a huge hypocrite giving me shit for that Church of Elson thread made in jest, while today you're saying "I know I cringed when Elson came in"

By the way, I watched that Mavs/Spurs game too, and ask anyone who was the best Mav on the floor that night and you'll only get one answer.

Josh Howard.

[RashoFan]

Travis...it was nice to see you at the game tonight! Was anybody at the game to night?? I went to the front entrance at halftime and didn't see anyone else from here... :(

[T Park]

I went to the game.

Totally uncomfortable the whole time, but still had a good time.

I personally thought Jason terry played better, due to actually SHOWING UP in the second half.
