Spurs @ Suns Jan. 31 - Game Blog

[ChumpDumper]

JV > Barbosa :lol

[TampaDude]

Manu needs to penetrate...

[Amuseddaysleeper]

sometimes I question manu's shot selection


sometimes

[Mister Sinister]

JV > Barbosa :lol
JV>Magic.

[timvp]

Drive to the damn rim :pctoss

[ludda]

dan tony is annoying

[milkyway21]

Amare-5 pts is a head-scratcher :lmao

[BonnerDynasty]

Bullshit foul call!

[StoneBuddha]

here comes the finley rags

[spursrule32]

don't worry about Horry - he'll come in to hit the game winning 3

[Ice009]

F.ucking Finley

[Mister Sinister]

Damn it!

[TampaDude]

I'm calling it now...the Spurs will not ever take the lead in this game.

[Joe Schmoogins]

that was a foul on barbosa if any... he pushed off. lame.

[Mister Sinister]

God damn it, Manu!!!!!

[ludda]

Wtff Ginobli

[Stabbin' Cabin]

Suns fans gonna start cheering Ginobili soon...

[duncan228]

Manu is so off. His shot, his decisions...

[BonnerDynasty]

This is lame.

PUT HORRY IN!

[Roxsfan]

here comes the finley rags

finley might as well be playing barefoot and blindfolded, it won't affect his game.

sucking is sucking.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

fuck

coulda cut it to a one possession game

manu kills me sometimes


but i do love the guy

[Joe Schmoogins]

:clap .... hey... I'll give it up. That was actually a fairly solid quarter. It's a step in the right direction.

[duncan228]

Down 5, one quarter to go.
This is possible.

[Korny Earl]

they need to put horry in.. break sum ankles, noses, hips, something!!

[Ice009]

So is Finley still having a great game?

[TampaDude]

There is something seriously wrong with Ginobili tonight...he must be injured or have the flu or something...he's just not there at all...

[TampaDude]

they need to put horry in.. break sum ankles, noses, hips, something!!

Fuck yeah...I wanna see some BLOOD!!! :clap

[Xylus]

Stoudemire looks like Erick Dampier out there.

This is the most boring Suns-Spurs matchup in years.

[bigfundamental21]

Manu is so off. His shot, his decisions...
He also looks like he is sick. His nose and eyes are red.

He needs to fight through this and stop taking jump shots. DRIVE IT INTO THE LANE!

[nkdlunch]

Vaughn, Manu, Udoka, Horry, Duncan. we need this lineup!!!!

[timvp]

Keep Horry out. Last thing that needs to happen is to wake up the Suns and their fans.

[duncan228]

For a game I thought could have been an embarassing blow out, it's turned into an ugly possibility.

[Warlord23]

15 turnovers, 35% shooting, 50 points after 3 quarters.

I could laugh if it weren't for the fact that they seem to be trying out there

[TampaDude]

Give the Spurs credit for as shitty as they have been playing they are still in the game. If the lose it was expected if the win it could be the turning point of the season.

WERD...the Suns should really be up by 20+ right now...I cannot believe the Spurs are still in this game!

[Mister Sinister]

Put Horry in, and watch the city of Phoenix destroy itself.

[Roxsfan]

they need to put horry in.. break sum ankles, noses, hips, something!!

no shit, horry has heart and hops, he can go in there and dunk some shit up in this motherfucker.

Suns = pretenders and D'An fucking Toni is a bitch.

[bigfundamental21]

I would take an ugly win at this point. We have hung in there. Just gotta be more aggressive in the fourth.

[nkdlunch]

Let's face the fact that SPurs defense is the best we've seen in a few games. energywise

[Korny Earl]

they should go up n ask kerr to give us a few threes.

[Xylus]

This is the worst the Suns' offense has looked all year. Credit to the Spurs for good D. Shame on Nash and Stoudemire for looking bored.

[timvp]

If the Spurs win this game I'd laugh.

And then laugh some more.

[Mister Sinister]

Fuck you, MDA. Smug bitch.

[Udrihlooms]

On a positive side, we have seriously dented Phoenix' way to Ratings Championship with such display of horrifying game. :lmao

[Roxsfan]

Stoudemire looks like Erick Dampier out there.

This is the most boring Suns-Spurs matchup in years.

then he must be doing pretty good, b/c Erica is the self-proclaimed 2nd best center in the league behind Shaq, and Yao? Erica: "oh , I forgot about him"

[O.J. Mayonnaise]

Did anyone notice the adjustment that Pop made on offense? Instead of having Vaughn on the perimeter where the Suns were leaving him and daring him to shoot, they put him on the baseline close to the basket where the Suns couldn't double off of him.

[milkyway21]

Manu's off night

Nash too (5-14FG; 4 assts)

[ludda]

As bad as we are lately, Suns do not look that great IMO.

[timvp]

D'Antoni is like the love child between Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd.

[Korny Earl]

-3 come on!!!!!!!!!

[StoneBuddha]

wtf, amare picks up his 4th and they run an isolation play for finley?

[milkyway21]

Ime lay-up!!!!!!!

[Korny Earl]

yeah give it to duncan.. hes only surrounded.. dumbass finley

[lefty]

http://blogs.sltrib.com/trent/uploaded_images/jazz4491.JPG

[Korny Earl]

Boy the suns are way off..I know the Spurs can't shoot but the SUns are doing their best Spurs impersonation.
lol :blah

[Xylus]

Suns normally shoot 50% from the field, and are currently hitting at a 37% clip.

[BonnerDynasty]

Man Region Strike Once More!

[Mister Sinister]

Manu!

[timvp]

There's is no reason for Manu to shoot another jump shot.

[BonnerDynasty]

What The Fuck


Cmon Omg!

[Mister Sinister]

Fuckin' A, what is this shit?!

[duncan228]

Pop and Duncan going to get thrown out together. :lol

[Xylus]

These are the two best teams in the West? Ugh.

[ricketts]

whats with TNT not showing any foul replays? are they trying to protect the refs when they make bullshite calls. becasue that was bullshite.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

man, if I'm the suns, this is gonna be a shitty win


the spurs are the low point of the season and the suns still can't kick their ass

[Joe Schmoogins]

alright alright... its an ugly one... but... BELIEVE!

[nkdlunch]

Spurs actually showing some passion. this is a nice surprise tonight

[BonnerDynasty]

These are the two best teams in the West? Ugh.

Just pray the Spurs dont make the playoffs.

We will kill this country with 70 pt games all the way to the FINALS! We are going to take this league down with us!

[Korny Earl]

put in horry to ruff up the refs!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

why won't finley attack the rim more?

he can still dunk it better than most of the Spurs and is a solid FT shooter

[lefty]

Just pray the Spurs dont make the playoffs.

We will kill this country with 70 pt games all the way to the FINALS! We are going to take this league down with us!
:lol

[Behrooz24]

This game is off the nuts

[bigfundamental21]

bullshit call on Duncan

[timvp]

Let the Suns get the regular season calls. We'll see what happens in the playoffs.

[milkyway21]

3pt game, people :elephant

Duncan must not foul again.

[spursjustice]

These are the two best teams in the West? Ugh.

I take it I should be deleting this game of my HDD recorder when I go home

[Stabbin' Cabin]

Just pray the Spurs dont make the playoffs.

We will kill this country with 70 pt games all the way to the FINALS! We are going to take this league down with us!

At least we'll have higher ratings....

[Warlord23]

These are the two best teams in the West? Ugh.

lol... Spurs are among the 5 or 6 worst teams in the West lately. But they've still found a way to outdo themselves today. Refs not helping with a bunch of blatantly bad calls

[nkdlunch]

as time goes by, the more sure I am Spurs will win

[urunobili]

put Horry in for Duncan now POP!

[ricketts]

how about them sonics beating the Cavs tonight?


no lebron or varejao (or however you spell that)

[Warlord23]

LMAO at D'Antoni .. "Let's go! Let's go! C'mon baby let's go!"

That's HOF coaching right there

[Mister Sinister]

Cuh-lang.

[peskypesky]

where are all the dumb-ass Jacque Vaughn haters now?

Vaughn>Parker

[duncan228]

Again ball don't lie.

[ludda]

WTF we're pissing the game away

[Xylus]

Amazing block by Amare.

That's the momentum shifter right there. This game is over.

[Mister Sinister]

That's fucking BULLSHIT.

[Josepatches]

Why Pop didn't put Horry,Finley,Manu or Bonner with TD?
How he tries to make difficult the double team of the Suns on Duncan?
It's amazing.Spurs need to open the court

[milkyway21]

10 3rdQ pts for Manu.

that's the 2nd time Amare blocked Tim :oops

[Ice009]

Tim is awful tonight. he's letting it get to HIM. FUCKING DOMINATE THIS GAME TIM. TAKE THIS MOTHERFUCKER OVER. YOU'RE BETTER THAN EVERYONE OUT ON THE COURT. DO IT TIM. I BELIEVE IN YOU!

[peskypesky]

as time goes by, the more sure I am Spurs will win
refs won't let that happen

[Stabbin' Cabin]

Nice response by Mike Dantoni "tired is not in our vocabulary"

neither is "defense" or "rebounding" or "championship"

[BonnerDynasty]

LT coming to see what a real champion looks like.

[timvp]

LT a Sun fan?

Makes perfect sense.

A crybaby who makes excuses = Natural fit.

[duncan228]

Manu!

[Xylus]

Nevermind. :oops :oops

[ludda]

finally manu
this is a weird game

[Mister Sinister]

Maaaaaaaanuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[peskypesky]

Ginobiliiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!

[timvp]

Come on get this ugly win.

[BonnerDynasty]

LT a Sun fan?

Makes perfect sense.

A crybaby who makes excuses = Natural fit.

As soon as Spurs get lead he will put on dark shades.

[porscha]

how the fuck did Bowen miss that layup
he always missed it

[StoneBuddha]

duncan changing shots on defense

[Mister Sinister]

Awww, HELL YEAH!

[Xylus]

Fucking pathetic.

[WalterBenitez]

shit, we are close, right?

[peskypesky]

Duncan is having a great game despite all the bullshit calls against him

[duncan228]

Duncan is subtly making things happen.

[BonnerDynasty]

Pop setting up the Horry DAGGER.

[milkyway21]

2 pt game :flag:

[duncan228]

Tied game.

[Joe Schmoogins]

Finley its about time!

[Pistons < Spurs]

NBA:Where Ugly Happens

[peskypesky]

Finley for 3

tie game, beeyotch!

[StoneBuddha]

i love marv's call!

[Xylus]

Oh my jesus christ.

[carina_gino20]

yes finley!

[milkyway21]

it's a tie

thanks Findog!

[peskypesky]

well....amare with a powerslam...phoenix up by 2

[dbreiden83080]

Timmy has played some all WORLD Defense tonight.

[Stabbin' Cabin]

Funny how Manu gets fouled on the other end but no call...typical.

It was funny when he got the ball rejected back into his face and they called Hill for a foul too.

[Duncanoypi]

God bless SPURS!!!

[Korny Earl]

dem boyz are scared!!!

[StoneBuddha]

the dunk is just two points... amare gives up that on the other end almost all the time

[Amuseddaysleeper]

man, we just can't keep phoenix out of the lane

yet when it's our turn to attack the rim we are nowhere to be found


oh well, 6 min to go and a 2 point game

can't really ask for much more

[nkdlunch]

I can feel Spurs Ownage tonight!

[Warlord23]

Late in games, the Suns almost always run Nash/Amare screen/rolls. Let's see if Pop has a defensew for that

[duncan228]

Nerve racking, ugly, hard game.
A win would be real sweet after this crap.

[Roxsfan]

finally, finley hits a 3 .......2 for the game, he should have 3 or 4

[bostonguy]

Damn Amare has hops.

[Mister Sinister]

Oh, we back the FUCK in this game!

[bigfundamental21]

Timmy has played some all WORLD Defense tonight.
Hell yeah!

Let's go Spurs. Get this.

[peskypesky]

Can you believe Duncan's only been fouled ONCE while shooting? Yeah, me neither. Fucking asswipe refs.

[duncan228]

Boy I would to play the Suns in the Playoffs..we would kill them with a healthy Tony!

It was fun in '05 and '07.

[TampaDude]

Hate to say it, but Amare is OWNING the Spurs tonight...just plain OWNAGE...

[dbreiden83080]

Can the Spurs play well down the stretch for the first time in god knows how long????

[bigfundamental21]

Can you believe Duncan's only been fouled ONCE while shooting? Yeah, me neither. Fucking asswipe refs.
Typical. Tim usually doesn't get the calls.

[Stabbin' Cabin]

funny how Hill hit him the face..go look at the replay..genius!

Hill isn't round and orange...

[nkdlunch]

Props to Finley. he showed up bigtime tonight

[Amuseddaysleeper]

the problem is that the spurs are PITIFUL in tight games in the fourth


let's hope for a change in that tonight

[peskypesky]

Boy I would to play the Suns in the Playoffs..we would kill them with a healthy Tony!
nope...we'll kill them with Jacque "Tony who?" Vaughn!!!

[lefty]

On ESPN's scoreboard : " Stoudemire makes 2 pt dunk" :lol

Thanks god it wasn't a 3 pt dunk

[milkyway21]

LAST 5 MINUTES:THE MOMENT OF TRUTH

:flag:

[TampaDude]

vBookie spread is 6, which means the Spurs will lose by less than 6, so we'll lose the vBookie, too... :lol

[Mister Sinister]

Ime!

[BonnerDynasty]

Ime

[Josepatches]

Why doesn't finley cut to the basket when Marion doubles Finley?

IMO he has to be open to shoot.Pop has to find the way to avoid the double team

[peskypesky]

nice pass by tim to ime under the basket!

tie game

[BonnerDynasty]

lmao im surprised they called that.

[Korny Earl]

amare w. 5 fouls!!!!

[timvp]

Holy crap. How is this game tied.

[Stabbin' Cabin]

Moron..if your going to make up shit the shut up!

english are fun

[davemaniscool]

Stoudemire overrated

[Mister Sinister]

Timmy! Fuck Yeah!

[naico]

killer three by bell..damn that hurt

[TampaDude]

Spurs take the lead for about 10 seconds...lol...

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Finally Tim's teammates have allowed him to do his thing!

[BonnerDynasty]

finally we have a game now.

[Joe Schmoogins]

Suns are in big trouble!

[Ice009]

Don't FUCKING GIVE UP ANY THREES. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

[carina_gino20]

hallelujah bruce!

[dbreiden83080]

Tim is in control out here right now, he just needs some help.

[timvp]

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao @ this game

[Mister Sinister]

Tits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or GTFO!

[Joe Schmoogins]

Bruce... a.k.a. Mr. Clutch

[jmard5]

Smallball with 2 lockdown defenders in Bowen and Udoka...

[Stabbin' Cabin]

gg

[Warlord23]

For all the D that the Spurs have played, this game will still be decided by how they defend the Nash/Amare pick-n-roll for the rest of this game. That's all that D'Antoni will run.

[milkyway21]

:tu Tim asst to ime
:tu made lay-up
:tu Tim feeds Bruce.

Spurs up 1, people :clap

[Duncanoypi]

Bruce Big Shot Bruce Bowen

[peskypesky]

man, even if we lose, this game is huge for us...shows we can still compete with the best even when we're without one of the Big 3. And on the road!

[bigfundamental21]

Gotta continue to use Duncan to get open shots!

[it's me]

Tim what aplayer OMG

[dbreiden83080]

Come on guys, lets win this ugly ass nonsense.

[TampaDude]

If by some fucking miracle the Spurs win (but they almost surely won't), the Suns will be kicking themselves...this should've been a blowout win for PHX.

[nkdlunch]

this game is a joke. nobody can take anything from it. except that Spurs still OWN THE SONS!!!!!

[Joe Schmoogins]

it makes me wonder how nice life would actually be for the Spurs if Bruce could hit open shots. Not just open shot.

[Mister Sinister]

u liek?

http://images.encyclopediadramatica.com/images/5/59/Mudkiphu9.png
IT'S NOT FRIDAY YET YOU...Oh, wait. DAMN IT! DAMN IT ALL TO HELL AND KILL IT WITH FIRE!

[Josepatches]

Every time the double DUncan the players should go straight to the basket
IMo.The players have to be open.No more players in the key.
Last plays with Finley and Tim are the key of the game if we want to win.

[Joe Schmoogins]

big three by nash

[boutons_]

this games proves nothing, with Tony out and both teams shooting extremely poorly, non-competitive bball

[TampaDude]

Sure...leave Nash wide fucking open... :rolleyes

[Warlord23]

High pick-n-roll ... they will keep running this till we defend it

[spursjustice]

time update...score update please

[peskypesky]

i wish we would put mahinmi in to match up against amare

[naico]

Damn cant believe this shit..Suns depending on 3s right now, nd they repeatedly pull it off

[BonnerDynasty]

What The Fuck Finley!?!?!?!!??!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!

:lol :lol :rolleyes

[BonnerDynasty]

PLease let that shot wake up the long haired Manu.

[naico]

Damn we suck!!Duncan asking for a trade now lol

[peskypesky]

i'm sorry but finley sux...

[timvp]

Was Manu touched?

[davemaniscool]

phx fans love manu but you can't have him.

[Mister Sinister]

Acting, my ass.

[timvp]

Udoka needs to settle down.

[jmard5]

I hate Manu's shot selection in this game. Dammit.

[BonnerDynasty]

Finley fucking sucks.

Leaves Marion WIDE ASS OPEN AT THE 3

[Roxsfan]

Fuck phoenix fans........the suns could behead Manu; and they would boo the foul call as his head rolls down the court......fuck them

Yet, if you look at the suns wrong they want a foul call........fuck them.

[davemaniscool]

how could marion really think he should be in the all star game with such an ugly ass jumper

[peskypesky]

can't let them get offensive rebounds!

[ricketts]

This week at spurs practice: Learning how to hold a lead.

[Mister Sinister]

Cuh-lang. TWICE!

[peskypesky]

stoudamire misses two fts

[Stabbin' Cabin]

Poor Manu...that's twice now he's been severly maimed- oh wait, he's just fine without a scratch.

[Mister Sinister]

Fucking *flop* by Diaw, there.

[Ice009]

Don't FUCKING GIVE UP ANY THREES. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.


What did I say?????????????????????
FUCK. This is a big problem for the Spurs. We give up too many critical threes in crunch time and don't REBOUND. They're two of the biggest problems for the Spurs this season in crunch time.

[cornbread]

Is Diaw drunk? He seems to have trouble standing.

[peskypesky]

[BonnerDynasty]

Poor Manu...that's twice now he's been severly maimed- oh wait, he's just fine without a scratch.

Manu is super human. They have to fire missiles at him to give him flu shots.

[boutons_]

wow, the Spurs can't score, suns picked up their D, too.

[Warlord23]

High pick-n-roll ... that's all he has up his sleeve ... defend it, Pop

[timvp]

One stop.

[nkdlunch]

that was close.... oh well. at least this games proves Suns are scared

[naico]

If the Suns score, this game is over...Defense!!

[ChumpDumper]

Poor Diaw...that's twice now he's been severly [sic] maimed- oh wait, he's just fine without a scratch.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

fuck


a 2 point deficit feels like 30 with the way the shots the spurs are getting

[milkyway21]

2 MISSED FTs BY THE CRYBABY AMARE!:lol

a W is still possible.

[angel_luv]

Please Spurs let's win this one!

( I know I was supposed to be asleep. But I am determined to see a win. )

[peskypesky]

y'all think pop will put bonner in for the last shot?

[lefty]

wow, the Spurs can't score, suns picked up their D, too.

D is for dicks ?

Because they have no defense

[BonnerDynasty]

Okay Finley. I'm Sorry.

[naico]

that does it..

[peskypesky]

ok...i eat crow...Finley for 3!!!!

[Stabbin' Cabin]

fuck your a moron..he has black eye dumbass..boy Suns fans are stupid..Thank god you will never win a title :toast

The spurs are like a box of chocolates.

[naico]

Yes Damned!!!!!!!

[Don Quixote]

I love it!

We're about to take a dump all over the Suns' floor.
