[Spurminator]

A stop would be nice this quarter...

[Solid D]

Great seal by Rasho easy layup for Bosh.

Fin with the awful turnover after Vaughn moves from his spot.

[Spurs Brazil]

Damn Fin

[koopa]

Duncan's getting used by Rasho! We should have kept Rasho instead!


in hindsight, yeah we should have, elson is a bum, rasho and fab would've been a decent 1, 2, punch at center....and bonner has been a bum

[manufor3]

come on spurs... hold on for 5 more minutes!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I might agree with this...

what good is Elson if he can't even use his athleticism at all?

[Spurs Brazil]

76ers up 13 against Mavs with 3 minutes to go

[FromWayDowntown]

I wish sometimes that the Spurs could bottle Manu's unending competitiveness so that he could share a bit of it with his teammates.

[ambchang]

Spurs D has been quite porous without Duncan this half, and the O was .... well, worse.

[manufor3]

I wish sometimes that the Spurs could bottle Manu's unending competitiveness so that he could share a bit of it with his teammates.

They would look like GS warriors vs. the Mavs against everyone, except with high IQ basketball.

[FromWayDowntown]

Today is apparently Jacque Vaughn's birthday. A win would make a nice gift. If only his teammates were in a giving mood.

[spursrocksocks]

I wish sometimes that the Spurs could bottle Manu's unending competitiveness so that he could share a bit of it with his teammates.
imagine having 3 manu's and 2 duncans

[T Park]

Solid game again.

[Solid D]

Calderon drives around screen and baseline reverse layup.

[T Park]

Finley with an off night, but still scores in double figures.

[manufor3]

Bruce in for Findog

[Spurs Brazil]

DAMN Calderon is good

[SuperManu!!!]

Why don't manu get's more shots? He is really hot today and since the start of the second half he barely fired

[ambchang]

Manu again! This guy is just wrong!
What the hell is wrong now, neither teams could miss.

[Spurs Brazil]

Nice job

[Solid D]

Calderon late in clock for 3 over Vaughn. :(

85-79.

Manu fakes 3 and beautiful feed to Duncan for the easy layup.

Delfino for 3! 87-82.

[Spurs Brazil]

Raptors can't miss

[loveforthegame]

We can't exchance baskets when they're making 3 pointers. Damn.

[ambchang]

Pick and roll between Duncan and GINOBILI, not VAUGHN, come on!

[Spurminator]

Man, a stop would be so awesome...

[td4mvp21]

Raptors hitting lucky shots.

[ambchang]

Delfino ripped the rebound out of Duncan? Come on Duncan! you are better than that.

[BonnerDynasty]

damn I wanted TD to make that!

[td4mvp21]

Why did Tim shoot that with one hand? Did he forget how to shoot with two?

[manufor3]

89-84 timeout

[SpursFanFirst]

[Solid D]

Bosh at top no good, Delfino reb. misses layup in traffic.

Manu shoots three late in clock misses everything, Tim long reb. shoots at shot buzzer from 30 no good. Time out. 89-84.

[O.J. Mayonnaise]

Can the Spurs sign Delfino next season?

[Spurs Brazil]

Vaughn over dribbling for half the possession. :pctoss

He does it a lot

[manufor3]

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Bosh at top mo good, Delfino reb. misses layup in traffic.

Manu shoots three late in clock misses everything, Tim long reb. shoots at shot buzzer from 30 no good.
Did Manu get fouled on that last one?

I wouldn't put it past the refs.
Because he's been hitting everything. :lol

[greens]

Question...What channel is this game being shown on?

I don't see it on the league pass...and not on ESPN, FSN, NBATV, etc...

[duncan228]

It would be a crime for the Spurs not to pull this out for Manu with the night he's had.

[Pistons < Spurs]

34, 13 & 5 for Manu....that's a sick stat line!

[loveforthegame]

Mavs lost to the sixers tonight. :clap

Bad loss for the Mavs. I might have to go over to one of there boards to see what they're saying.

It would be a shame if the Spurs cannot take advantage of the Mavs loss though.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

[Solid D]

[loveforthegame]

Damn, we needed that shot Ginobli.

[manufor3]

come on Oberto!

[Solid D]

Calderon run off the arc by Vaughn, penetrates back out to Bosh spins and fades, good. 91-88.

Gino in corner for 3, no good. Loose ball foul on Oberto on the reb. bad call. Bosh flailed.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Those calls are big!

Bosh doubled, Gino almost creates loose ball. O/B Raptor ball.

Bosh in and out from the top, Reb. Manu. Whew.

Timeout. 23.7 sec. left.

[Don Quixote]

I'll say it again. This is a great game. Toronto could have mailed it in at halftime, but they hung around, and it's anyone's game.

Don't get me wrong ... I'll be mad if the Spurs lose. But close victories are all the more sweet.

[Spurminator]

Huzzah!

Big rebounds for Ginobli tonight. What a stat line by him.

[Pistons < Spurs]

[Spurs Brazil]

Run a iso to Manu to attack and go to the line at the end of the clock

[Spurminator]

38 min for Manu according to Yahoo.

[manufor3]

Spurs same lineup in. Too bad Barry isn't there to come in for FTs.

Fin pressured on side outof bounds. Timeout. Good job Fin.

[Don Quixote]

[BonnerDynasty]

Now is the time for RedRocket.

Last Spurs TO?

[loveforthegame]

Ginobli's played 38:44 minutes according to yahoo.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Too bad you all don't still have Nazr in the middle. He had 22 & 11 against the Lakers tonight.

[chaco]

Big rebounds for Ginobli tonight. What a stat line by him.

[Solid D]

Spurs with no timeouts. 12 on shot clock against a top 3-point shooting team.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Nazr might be better than Elson now...

[loveforthegame]

Big ft's Fin. Good job.

[Don Quixote]

Larry Hughes has 40 pts tonight.

Strange night in the NBA ...

[Pistons < Spurs]

Good win guys!!! Too bad they let the Raps back in the game....and it kinda sucks that Manu and Tim played so much, but at least the AS break is coming up.

[T Park]

Gotta give Fin credit for clutch Fts.

[duncan228]

I take my hat off to Manu tonight.
I've seen him play out of his mind before but he's been unreal tonight.
He did it all.

[ambchang]

The Spurs lucked out a win, that was a poorly executed play (12 seconds ran out before the time out, step back contested 3), and Delfino did a masterful job at denying Ginobili the ball (he just didn't follow through with boxing out).
BTW, did I just see John Lucas behind the Raptors's bench?

[BonnerDynasty]

A winning rodeo road trip. Good job Spurs!!

[Spurminator]

[T Park]

I'll take it.

Onto Cleveland to finish the Roady 6-3.

[spursrocksocks]

[FromWayDowntown]

A definite resume game for Manu.

[bonesinaz]

Solid D-
Thanks for the play by play. You do a great job and I appreciate it when I am just able to pop in here for updates.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Manu only had 2 TO's...I think that's his best game so far as a starter, especially since we got THE W

[FromWayDowntown]

The RRT is an over .500 endeavor again -- a 6-3 finish after an 0-2 start would be great. It would be even better if the Spurs hadn't turtled in Seattle . . . .

[ploto]

BTW, did I just see John Lucas behind the Raptors's bench?
Yes, he has been working with TJ on his rehab from his injury and has been traveling with the team since TJ rejoined them a little over a week ago.

It's a shame that TJ fans in this area did not get to see TJ play a better game. He played great last night but he has only been back a short while and it was obvious he had nothing tonight in the second game of a back-to-back.

[greens]

Manu only had 2 TO's...I think that's his best game so far as a starter, especially since we got THE W


I think the Dallas game was also one of his best games as a starter...He had 37 pts, also 6 assists, and 2 steals...but more turnovers and less rebounds though...

[anjlbitz]

Wow. Almost a DNP for Udoka.

Wonder why?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I think the Dallas game was also one of his best games as a starter...He had 37 pts, also 6 assists, and 2 steals...but more turnovers and less rebounds though...
That was probably the most entertaining game so far. He was really intense. I hope all his Playoff games are like that Dallas game. :lol

We'll go 16-0 !

[Crookshanks]

manu fucking dominated while rocking out with his cock out :elephant
What are you - Twelve? What a completely asinine post!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Wow. Almost a DNP for Udoka.

Wonder why?
I was wondering about that.

Udoka and Bonner combined for 31 seconds?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Meanwhile Duncan had his usual respectable game 22 points 11-19 shots, 13 REBOUNDS, 2 blocks 2 TO's

2 Assists - I don't think we ran 4 down so much to create shots only through Timmy today, and had a lot more ball movement and sharing.

Fab and Fin also did their part today today.

Fin 12 points

Fab got some key rebounds at 7

[duncan228]

Didn't Bonner screw up on defense the second he came in the game?
I thought that's why Pop pulled him so fast.

[anjlbitz]

I was wondering about that.

Udoka and Bonner combined for 31 seconds?

Maybe Pop is giving Elson some burn to showcase his "skills" (in prep for a trade!), thus taking minutes from Udoka

:greedy :hungry:

[duncan228]

Meanwhile Duncan had his usual respectable game 22 points 11-19 shots, 13 REBOUNDS, 2 blocks 2 TO's
2 Assists

1 steal.
0-1 FT

And 0-1 from 3! :lmao

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Didn't Bonner screw up on defense the second he came in the game?
I thought that's why Pop pulled him so fast.
Yeah he immediately picked up a foul the moment he stepped on court, and got replaced by Elson.

I think he had no clue about where he was supposed to be positioned.

[koopa]

it was, it seemed he but bonner just so he can get the cheap pop from the crowd lol

[duncan228]

Yeah he immediately picked up a foul the moment he stepped on court, and got replaced by Elson.

I think he had no clue about where he was supposed to be positioned.

He'll need to get a clue if he wants to be on the floor.

I read that his father was on the plane with the team to Toronto.
Too bad he couldn't have a couple of decent runs in these last 2 games. In Boston he had a ton of people there for him, and tonight his father was there.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

What are you - Twelve? What a completely asinine post!
eh, go easy on the poster's enthusiasm.

It's still just a forum

[greens]

Spurs call on League Pass.
I'm a happy camper. It's been a lot of games since I got to laugh with Sean.


Were you able to see the game on League Pass(online site that is)? For some reason, it was not available to me...the other games, like the Dallas and the Laker ones were on it...

[duncan228]

I watched it on LP on TV.
I never checked the online one.

Strange that you would get other games and not this one.
I have no idea why...

I watched it online on LP... it wasn't there at the beginning, I missed the first 3 minutes or so.

Awesome game BTW :elephant

Good game. I caught most of the last half on the radio and saw the final two minutes or so live.

I taped it and so also watched some highlights after the fact.

Great game by Gino. He is just too good.

I'm sure you'll always remember meeting him but to add the performance he put on to it must be wonderful.

Looking forward to your recap and pics...

Manu was hitting his shots and hitting the boards, he really, really wanted it. why? "Because he's Manu Ginobili"
