I don't recall that.
Figures...your to old to recall anything.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

:lol They were on a 4 game winning streak going into today's game...and they are about 3 games out of having the best record in the West.


And 3 games from being out of the playoffs. They could finish #1, #9 or anywhere in between. I only asked if the possibility has come to mind, not that it was a lock.

Sorry for kicking the dog.

That would be too old, not to old. Please step up your game.

[duncan228]

:lmao

This board gets so cranky after a loss.
Doesn't matter who we lost to or what month it is.
First Spurs fans fight with the trolls.
Then Spurs fans fight with each other.

It's as predictable as SPAM. :)

[Beno Udrih]

Please step up your game.
I'm assuming this is something tlongII hears from the women way to often!

Well, it was a pretty dumb comment considering the Spurs are still healthy outside of Parker/Barry. If you think a Spurs team with a healthy Tim Duncan, coached by Greg Popovich is going to miss the playoffs all of a sudden because they lost to the Celtics on the road or whatever is a joke. Mavs and Suns also have a losing record against the West's elite and are subpar on the road (well at least the Mavs). You think they're both going to miss the playoffs as well?

It'd be one thing to argue that the Spurs won't repeat, but to ask if any Spurs fans think the Spurs will miss the playoffs alltogether this season is a little ridicuous.

Oooohhhh that! It wasn't a guarantee or anything.

[td4mvp21]

Oooohhhh that! It wasn't a guarantee or anything.

So? It was still fucking stupid.

Again, it should be too often, not to often. This is clearly not typo smack. This is spelling smack.

[1Parker1]

Oooohhhh that! It wasn't a guarantee or anything.

:lmao :lmao

[tlongII]

I suppose one could argue that it's grammar smack though.

[1Parker1]

I suppose one could argue that it's grammar smack though.

Or one could argue it's just weak smack.

[ShoogarBear]

I suppose one could argue that it's grammar smack though.Can't pull the wool over your eyes.

[CuckingFunt]

That would be too old, not to old. Please step up your game.It would also be you're.

If you go for the typo smack, you should really go all the way.

[ShoogarBear]

so your checking grammer on a message board now? Maybe you and Ploto should get together and start dating, : you too (see I spelled it correctly) seem perfect for each other :lol:lmao :lmao :lmao

No, you didn't.

Actually you should have worded it "you two". It's okay though. I will cut you some slack.

Never once said anything about the Celtics game, Pop, elite teams, road record, Mavs/Suns playoff chances, etc.

All of a sudden? .517 ball over a two month period isn't all of a sudden. I merely asked if the possibility has entered into the equation yet considering they've been in a funk for quite some time.

Sensitive bunch, ain't we?

[tlongII]

No, actually, I'm not.

Yes, actually you are.

[ShoogarBear]

No, actually, I'm not.:lmao

You guys are talking about two different posts, I'm almost positive.

CF is talking about the post by adam. tlong thinks she's talking about his post where he said "Please step up your game".

I think CF believes the proper phrase would be "Step up you're game."

Boston 98, San Antonio 90

Preview - Box Score - Recap

By JIMMY GOLEN, AP Sports Writer

BOSTON (AP) -- Tim Duncan beat Glen "Big Baby" Davis a couple of times in the first quarter, and the disappointment on the rookie's face showed.

"We had to remind him that Duncan is really good. That's going to happen," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said Sunday after Boston beat the San Antonio Spurs 98-90. "You can't get frustrated."

Filling in with Kevin Garnett and Kendrick Perkins injured, Davis had nine points and eight rebounds for Boston. Paul Pierce scored 35 points, Ray Allen had 19, and Rajon Rondo had 12 assists and 11 rebounds Sunday as the Celtics won their third straight game improved to 16-0 against the Western Conference.

Tim Duncan had 22 points, 14 rebounds and six assists, and Manu Ginobili scored 21 for the Spurs, who lost for the first time in five games. San Antonio got within three points with 1:13 left, but Michael Finley's 3-point attempt went in and out.

Twice in the final minute Ginobili was forced to take off-balance, heavily guarded 3-point attempts; neither one was close.

"We have an opportunity and a great shot by Mike that rattles in and out to tie the game down the stretch," Duncan said. "Then two turnovers in a row and they get two offensive rebounds. Just too many mistakes that bit us down the stretch there."

The Celtics improved to 5-2 since Garnett went out with an abdominal strain, and they'd better get used to it: Rivers said after the game that his big man -- the leading All-Star vote-getter -- won't be back before the Feb. 17 exhibition in New Orleans.

"He's out until after the All-Star break, I think including the All-Star game," Rivers said. "That I haven't talked to him about, but I assume so."

Subs Eddie House, who scored all of his 10 points in the second quarter, and James Posey, who had five of his seven rebounds in the fourth, also came off the bench to pitch in.

"I just have to give credit to the whole bench being ready, turning the game around," Pierce said, also praising Rondo for leading the team in rebounds three times since Garnett went out. "Every time he leads the team in rebounds, we win. So keep crashing the boards, Rondo."

But the key was Davis, who combined with Leon Powe to keep Duncan from taking over the game.

"What we told Glen was, 'He's taller than you. You're heavier than him. You're not going to grow today," Rivers said. "But because you have a low center of gravity, get into his legs and try to push him off the block. You can't get frustrated. ... He did that a couple of times."

Rivers said he didn't tell Powe he was starting until the walkthrough.

"We don't sit and hold a vigil or anything," the coach said. "We try not to make a big deal of it, because if we do, (he) will."

With Boston leading 92-87 and under 20 seconds left, Ginobili was hacked while trying a 3, but no foul was called and Rondo came up with his second big rebound of the final minute. Rondo made both free throws after he was fouled, then Finley made a 3-pointer to make it 94-90.

But Tony Allen made a pair of free throws, and Ginobili again couldn't get a clean look at a 3.

San Antonio trailed by as many as 10 points in the fourth quarter, cutting it to 89-87 with 2:01 left on Ginobili's 3-pointer. But the Celtics, who made just 10 of 19 free throws through three quarters, made 11 of 12 down the stretch -- including their last eight -- to hold back the charge.

Notes

Pierce scored 14 in the first quarter, and Ginobili had 11. Rondo had five assists and five rebounds in the first. ... Red Sox first baseman Kevin Youkilis was sitting courtside. ... Spurs point guard Tony Parker missed his sixth straight game with a sore left ankle. .. The Celtics hadn't beaten San Antonio in Boston since Jan. 8, 1997, a streak of nine consecutive losses.

It's kinda like the dance move...you slide your feet a little to the left..then a little to the right...

Sidenote: They just showed a Lebron interview in the Cavs lockerroom on ESPN...he has a huge blowup poster next to his locker from last season of him dunking on Tim Duncan. :lol

He's a good guy, that was a pretty epic moment in his career to do that over TD no doubt.

I missed most of this game, but I expected a loss. Road game, noon game, no Parker? Recipes for disaster.

It's been there since last season.
Duncan was told about it in an interview before the Finals started.
He offered to sign it for him. :)

[Darth Celtic]

Here's to another 10 years of ownage with KG as part of the C's.

LMAO

[Darth Celtic]

:lol at the celtic fans in this thread. Where have you been the last 10 years?

Where were you before Tim Duncan? ABA? LMAO, if the NBA never rigged the draft for the Spurs to get Duncan, none of you would be here right now :lol

[T Park]

Why would the NBA rig the draft for a small market basketball team?

Genius.

[Darth Celtic]

The Celtics beat us without Tony Parker, BFD.

And the Celtics without Kevin Garnett, who is a LOT better than Tony Parker...not to mention Kendrick Perkins is out with a shoulder injury, yes, Bostons starting Center...

Someone's gonna point out Brent Barry didn't play hahaha, gotta love them spurs fans.
