Spurs @ Suns Mar. 9 - Game Blog

[spyder]

Bruce!!!!!

[Cherry]

Bruuuuuuuuce!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

well,well,well......

[SAtown]

How the F are we up? lmao

[ShoogarBear]

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

THEY HAVE THE LEAD? After that quarter?

[1Parker1]

:lol Suns complain about a non-call literally every time they miss a shot on offense.

[T Park]

If they would play a little D on Hill and drive to the basket, they would be winning this friggen game.

BTW I take back what i said no one showed up.

Tony fucking Parker showed up.

Props bro :tu

[velik_m]

Bowen rules!

[Quiet Strength]

The spurs are playing so bad and yet they are up by one going into the 4th?? Wow!!!

[boutons_]

strong close to 3rd qtr,
will need a strong close to 4th qtr
Suns really suck,
Spurs just take this game and go home.

[T Park]

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

THEY HAVE THE LEAD? After that quarter?


an 11 to 2 run to finish the quarter.

Unreal :lol

Well Pop likes finishing quarters strong so he'll like that.

[JamStone]

Big Desert... Big Dessert... double meaning...

maybe better?

[Dre_7]

Wow, I think PHX will have a very short post season this year. Spurs playing like shit in that qtr yet enter the 4th up 1? Wow!

Spurs just need to actually make some baskets in the 4th and it should be a win.

Nice to see Tony Parker playing well after that Denver disaster.

[td4mvp21]

Thank God for Tony Parker.

[smeagol]

We need Tony to keep it up. We need 4th Q Manu.

All will be well (except me losing some Vbucks)

[velik_m]

OT: i don't remember the last time i saw so much travelling, much of it uncalled.

[Crookshanks]

:lol Suns complain about a non-call literally every time they miss a shot on offense.
They have to be the biggest, whiniest crybabies in the league! :nope

[RonMexico]

Bowen needs not talk to our fans. That's the first shot he's hit all day.

[Warlord23]

Great few minutes from Parker to close out the quarter. Now hopefully Tim and Manu can execute in the 4th. This is when Nash and Shaq have shown signs of being tired of late; teams have put up a beating on the Suns in the 4th. We need to just keep our cool and execute.

[Kriz-Maxima]

The Spurs lead after a bad quarter...amazing.

[kskonn]

Big Desert... Big Dessert... double meaning...

maybe better?

not until shaq showed up.

[ploto]

The NBA should allow teams to replay games like that Miami-Atlanta game when a player doesn't get called for fouls and should have been. Shaq would have been fouled out before half time. Replay the second half in a week.
And if they called all the moving screens on Oberto, he would foul out in one quarter.

[SenorSpur]

If they would play a little D on Hill and drive to the basket, they would be winning this friggen game.

BTW I take back what i said no one showed up.

Tony fucking Parker showed up.

Props bro :tu

No doubt. At this point, I'm more comfortable with Tony having the ball at the top of the key in the 1-4 set, rather than Manu, who is really struggling with this shot and playmaking.

[ShoogarBear]

Starters:

Parker +5
Finley -15
Thomas -9
Bowen -8
Duncan -10

Bench:

Ginobili +13
Udoka +12
Oberto +11
Horry +10
Soudamire -4

[1Parker1]

Man, the Spurs took the lead with Duncan on the bench. :tu

Ok, time for Duncan and Ginobili to take over in the 4th.

[td4mvp21]

Bowen needs not talk to our fans. That's the first shot he's hit all day.

Your fans need not to talk to our players :tu

[T Park]

Truth be told, I don't understand how the Spurs are up.

Stoudamire hardly plays, Shaq is kicking their ass along with Geriatric Hill

and your winning.

God if they just gave a fucking decent effort they would be kicking their ass.


BTW, Boris Diaw has 6 more points than he should.

[TampaDude]

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

THEY HAVE THE LEAD? After that quarter?

Yeah...no shit...I cannot fucking believe the Spurs are actually winning this game right now...imagine if their shots had been falling...they'd be up by 10-15 points right now and cruising...instead, this game is gonna go right down to the wire just like last time...Spurs are damn lucky the Suns are only 1 of 10 from beyond the arc!

[ploto]

OT: i don't remember the last time i saw so much travelling, much of it uncalled.
Two no-calls on Manu

[Amuseddaysleeper]

an 11 to 2 run to finish the quarter.

Unreal :lol

Well Pop likes finishing quarters strong so he'll like that.


:lol

you said yourself earleir in the thread, we can keep closing out on 11-2 runs and then fly home! :toast


still a whole fourth quarter to go, let's bring this home

[RonMexico]

Ummm... Bowen fouls every play - we're not whining any harder than AT&T does during a Mav game.

[Radiosparks]

Turn it on Manu...turn it on.

[itzsoweezee]

why is finley in the game?!?! gotdammit.

[majinkoola]

LOL @ people saying how the Spurs would do if their shots were falling. The Suns are 1-10 from the 3 point line. That's an anomaly.

[td4mvp21]

Ginobili!!!!!

[SAtown]

Ginobili!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[WalterBenitez]

wow Manu is waking up

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

uh,oh. good luck sons

[ShoogarBear]

Bowen needs not talk to our fans. That's the first shot he's hit all day.Bowen has to hit shots?

[YODA]

the Force is with MANUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

[spyder]

Manu tres!!

[td4mvp21]

Stoudemire If You Are Going To Take Shots Fucking Make Them

[SAtown]

Ginobili needs to stick to shooting 3s.

[td4mvp21]

Come on guys, we have to momentum, let's get a lead.

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

sons falling apart

[Amuseddaysleeper]

amare back in, let's hope we can get him foul #5

[kskonn]

OT: i don't remember the last time i saw so much travelling, much of it uncalled.

right on cue... I guess the refs are checking out the board.

[Radiosparks]

Go Spurs Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[td4mvp21]

Thomas!!!

[SAtown]

LMAO Duncan has a creepy smile

[BonnerDynasty]

lmao Somebody make a gif of that Duncan smile!!!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

KT gettin in the action

[TampaDude]

LOL @ people saying how the Spurs would do if their shots were falling. The Suns are 1-10 from the 3 point line. That's an anomaly.

Agreed...the Spurs are damn lucky the Suns are only 1 of 11 from 3-point land.

[SAtown]

Brick

[SenorSpur]

Good job by Udoka on the boards. How many caroms does he have?

[ChumpDumper]

Ummm... Bowen fouls every play
:lmao

[Crookshanks]

sons falling apart
Let's lay a little Utah Jazz on them! :lol

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs are getting lucky on those wide-open threes the Suns are getting.

EDIT: Tampa beat me to it.

[td4mvp21]

Come on Spurs, score!!! and play defense

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

anyone heard from those noisy sons fans?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Good job by Udoka on the boards. How many caroms does he have?

5

[RonMexico]

Bowen has to hit shots?

He was jawing at the fans like he's Reggie Miller.

[davemaniscool]

And if they called all the moving screens on Oberto, he would foul out in one quarter.

Maybe...But the whole phx team would foul out if they called it

[td4mvp21]

Manu!!!!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

nice bank geno

[Radiosparks]

Nice bank shot Manu.

[ShoogarBear]

Sweet board by Duncan and Manu with the hard banker.

[Phil Hellmuth]

that banked shot is nice but it always seems like it is gonna miss but goes in.

[davemaniscool]

Does anyone think Duncan is freakin getting mauled out there?

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

Bs

[td4mvp21]

That's a motherfucking foul, call it bitches

[Crookshanks]

Manu - don't try to drive to the basket when there are 4 orange jerseys standing there!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

He was jawing at the fans like he's Reggie Miller.

in the US airways.....he is


remember game 5 of last year

[SAtown]

Best damn 6-15 performance I've ever seen.

[T Park]

Put in Udoka, put in Parker.

Make it be so.

[BonnerDynasty]

This just in.

Finley still sucks today.

Top 5 highest paid player in the league baby!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Does anyone think Duncan is freakin getting mauled out there?


He is, for sure.


I hope we can hang on, would be a nice W to get us back on track

[1Parker1]

Man, Mighty Mouse isn't look too good yet again, This is disapointing.

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

why do these ABC sunday games always go down to the wire. its kinda odd that way. anybody remember when NBC had NBA rights and games. those games always came down to the wire as well.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

This just in.

Finley still sucks today.


I would actually rather see Bonner than Finley.

[td4mvp21]

The lineup should be Duncan, Thomas, Udoka (or Bowen), Ginobili, and Parker.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Man, Mighty Mouse isn't look too good yet again, This is disapointing.


and what's even scarier is that Pop gave him the green light to shoot MORE


ughhh

[td4mvp21]

Man, Mighty Mouse isn't look too good yet again, This is disapointing.

Agreed. He needs to start hitting his shots.

[Crookshanks]

I hate these announcers!

[1Parker1]

LMAO Duncan has a creepy smile

:lmao I thought that as well.

[smeagol]

Finley still sucks today.

Barry get well soon!

When are the 30 days officially over?

[ShoogarBear]

He was jawing at the fans like he's Reggie Miller.Bruce can jaw better than that. Reggie has no rings either.

Maybe if the fans weren't a bunch of douches, he wouldn't say anything.

[RonMexico]

I hate these announcers!

For calling out Duncan on the over-the-back?

[td4mvp21]

Duncan's smile was hilarious :lol

[Radiosparks]

Lets go Spurs!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

they should have ended that trade montage with a pic of brent smilin

[td4mvp21]

DUNCAN, you need to make that dude

[Radiosparks]

Great rebound by Thomas.

[ChumpDumper]

why do these ABC sunday games always go down to the wire. its kinda odd that way. anybody remember when NBC had NBA rights and games. those games always came down to the wire as well.Collusion!

[Crookshanks]

For calling out Duncan on the over-the-back?
No - just because they are all-around annoying!

[td4mvp21]

Why did Ginobili go out?!?!?!

[RonMexico]

Suns help D and defensive rebounding are sorely lacking compared to 1st half.

Again, that's D'Antoni's responsibility... and he's failing with 4th quarter strategy again.

[Radiosparks]

they should have ended that trade montage with a pic of brent smilin

That would have been sweet!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

yeah tim get pissed

[SAtown]

Timmy has BALLS

[BonnerDynasty]

Amazing. Game is at Spurs tempo the entire time. Amare has been in foul trouble.

Still a tied game.

[Radiosparks]

Nice play TD.

[lefty]

NASTY Timmy !

[T Park]

How the fuck can Finley stay in the game and Udoka not get more minutes.

BTW< Duncan COME THE FUCK ON!!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

oh yeah

[SAtown]

AmareLOOMS !!!

[RonMexico]

Bowen flop is bullshit. He pulled that same play in SA.

[T Park]

:lol @ Bowen drawing an offensive foul on the retard.

[td4mvp21]

Parker!!!

[GrandeDavid]

Sweet, Bruce jawed at fans!

[velik_m]

Amare is dumb

[GrandeDavid]

Offensive foul on Stawds!!!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

come on spurs, i was just about to let go of the death grip i have on my mouse

[td4mvp21]

Nash bailed us out there.

[SAtown]

Take it to Amare

[GrandeDavid]

Bring this merda home, baby!

[td4mvp21]

Good, Shaq and Stoudemire both with 5 fouls

[SAtown]

Both Snaq and STAT with 5. Scary

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

oh yeah 5 for 5

[BonnerDynasty]

parker Manu You Better Drive To The Basket Every Single Play Now!!!

[T Park]

Very nice
5 on Stoudamire AND Shaq.

GO THE FUCK AT EM AND FOUL EM OUT!!!

[Cherry]

Tony is very brave :)

[ChumpDumper]

Shaq should have tried flopping again. He probably would have gotten the call.

[Radiosparks]

Way to go TP!

[td4mvp21]

We better start pulling away.

[1Parker1]

Yes! Shaq and Amare with 5 fouls each. Parker, Ginobili, and Duncan should now have the green light to go into the paint.

[BonnerDynasty]

Put in Horry to drive to the hole!!!!!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

how long will we continue to wear los spurs jerseys

[Crookshanks]

parker Manu You Better Drive To The Basket Every Single Play Now!!!
AMEN, AMEN, AMEN!!! Everybody needs to go at Amare and Shaq - foul them out pronto!!

[td4mvp21]

We need to be driving like crazy and hope the refs decide to blow the whistle.

[T Park]

Put in Horry to drive to the hole!!!!!

Fuck no, leave Thomas in, dudes playing like an absolute STUD.

[smeagol]

Amare is dumb

Cannot say it enough times!

[1Parker1]

I will give Shaq props for his defense today. I was quite surprised that he had even that much left in him.

[SenorSpur]

Amare is dumb

So what else is new?

But he feels his irresistable charisma makes him extremely attractive to corporate sponsors :lol

[T Park]

Have our standards fallen this far, or is Kurt Thomas really playing as good as it seems :lol

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

i mean if you look at it, its one "s" from something very undesirable

[Shaolin-Style]

shaq will probably be back to the lackluster play after today.

this was what he thinks is a statement game so hes actually breaking his back.

[T Park]

So what else is new?

But he feels his irresistable charisma makes him extremely attractive to corporate sponsors :lol


Please tell me your making that up and he didn't say that.....

[RonMexico]

Shaq should have tried flopping again. He probably would have gotten the call.

Like Bowen did?

Bruce is quite impressive at being an aggressor on the defensive end, but a pussy on the offensive end. If I see him look exasperated again by Raja Bell's defense, I might call in a bomb threat to the Spurs hotel.

[SenorSpur]

Yes! Shaq and Amare with 5 fouls each. Parker, Ginobili, and Duncan should now have the green light to go into the paint.

Shaq'a fat ass going to the bench

[davemaniscool]

Good, Shaq and Stoudemire both with 5 fouls

As much of a beating he's been putting on Tim he should be gone.

[RonMexico]

LOL @ calling Eva a celebrity.

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

future prez in the house

[BonnerDynasty]

Have our standards fallen this far, or is Kurt Thomas really playing as good as it seems :lol


He sucked BIG TIME in the first half.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

RonMexico, since when did you turn into such a little bitch?

I used to think you were a decent Suns fan?

I'll blame it on your teams' struggles

[GrandeDavid]

Wordness Uppus, bitch.

[Radiosparks]

Lets go Spurs!!!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

9 and 7 for K thomas

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

:hungry: FOUL OUT :hungry:

[Crookshanks]

LOL @ calling Eva a celebrity.
LOL @ calling the Suns a contender!

[ChumpDumper]

Like Bowen did?

Bruce is quite impressive at being an aggressor on the defensive end, but a pussy on the offensive end. If I see him look exasperated again by Raja Bell's defense, I might call in a bomb threat to the Spurs hotel.Classy.

Bomb threat.

Classy.

[td4mvp21]

Should be our ball

[GrandeDavid]

RonMexico, I'm not particularly a fan of Eva, but she is a mega celebrity. She's all over magazine covers overseas so she's gotta have some appeal.

[SAtown]

LOL @ calling Eva a celebrity.

Celebrity status smack. :lmao

[SenorSpur]

9 and 7 for K thomas

Thomas eats and breathes rebounds. Much rather have him on the court than Oberto. Sorry, but Fab doesn't board worth a shit!

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

D'antonia is aboot to cry

[ShoogarBear]

WTF is D'Antoni on about?

[td4mvp21]

Thomas!!!

[Radiosparks]

Thomas with the J!

[WalterBenitez]

Kurt is hurting :D

[SenorSpur]

KT is $$$

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

thank you KT, ty

[SAtown]

Thomas playing out of his mind. What a badass

[mikejones99]

The greatest and the worst <mccain> are at the game

[davemaniscool]

Thomas is killing Shaq softly

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

told ya

[td4mvp21]

Good, T On D'anbitchi

[Radiosparks]

There you go.."T" him up.

[SAtown]

Dantoni HISSY FIT!

[RonMexico]

RonMexico, since when did you turn into such a little bitch?

I used to think you were a decent Suns fan?

I'll blame it on your teams' struggles

My Fav 5 Reasons:

1. Suns have a strong showing in first half and falter in 4th.... for the 100th time since this trade.

2. D'Antoni's inability to use the bench (aka Skinner) to protect Amare and Shaq from foul trouble.

3. Suns 3 games away from 9 seed.

4. Hangover.

5. Bruce Bowen talking to Phoenix fans, then acting like "nice guy."

[td4mvp21]

What the fuck is he bitching about?!?

[davemaniscool]

Toss crybaby

[ChumpDumper]

:lmao D'Asani gets a call and whines about it so he gets a tech.

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

CTFO geno

[SenorSpur]

The usual DanTony technical means the Suns are slipping.

[Phil Hellmuth]

It is Official: The writing is on the Wall for D'Antoni

[SAtown]

Classic Mike D

[velik_m]

Kurt Thomas has really soft hand.

[boutons_]

dantonee collapses in an emotional heap, what a louzzer.

[RonMexico]

6. Bennett Salvatore's terribly inconsistent officiating on both sides of the ball.

[ShoogarBear]

Classy.

Bomb threat.

Classy.D'Antoni and Sun Fan deserve each other, that much is clear.

[GrandeDavid]

D'Antoni is a dumb shit. What a time for a tech.

[TampaDude]

Wow...a T on D'Antoni...what a surprise...damn, Gino...you gotta make those!

[WalterBenitez]

Come Kurt ... you were seated next to Oberto???

[SAtown]

4. Hangover.


I hear ya :toast

[td4mvp21]

Good call, our ball

[T Park]

:lol @ Kurt becoming a gunner

[BonnerDynasty]

Shaq pushed duncan for that rebound. No foul call. Thanks refs!

[Radiosparks]

Keep running that play until they commit.

[BonnerDynasty]

Why the fuck are we taking jump shots/?????

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

awe, poor sunsies

[RonMexico]

I guess you don't remember the bomb threat that was called in last year? Chump acts like he's smart... but his memory is weak.

And I'm not supporting the bomb threat at all from last year... or the one I'm about to call in.

[BonnerDynasty]

Why the fuck are we taking jump shots/?????

[td4mvp21]

Stoudemire Fuckin Fouled Duncan The Bitch Should Be Out

[SAtown]

Shit 2 point game. Come on SPURS

[Amuseddaysleeper]

times like this when I really wish Manu hit the technical free throw

[dg7md]

Nash is the only Sun that can do anything now.

[ShoogarBear]

That was foul #6 on Stoudemire.

Shut up forever, Sun Fan.

[1Parker1]

Sloppy Sloppy Sloppy play by the Spurs. Lead cut to 2.

[TampaDude]

Fuck...empty possession there...that was a 5 or 6 point shift...

[GrandeDavid]

Nash, that lucky little shit.

[T Park]

I wish Ginobili would become agressive Manu and quit with the jumpshot BS.

[td4mvp21]

Duncan would have had an easy 2 had Stoudemire not fouled him.

[TampaDude]

times like this when I really wish Manu hit the technical free throw

Yup...watch the Spurs lose because of that miss...

[lefty]

Snaq and Stat with 5 fouls, and we take jump-shots ?????//

:bang

[ChumpDumper]

I guess you don't remember the bomb threat that was called in last year? Chump acts like he's smart... but his memory is weak.

And I'm not supporting the bomb threat at all from last year... or the one I'm about to call in.Why even bring it up in such a weak vignette?

You are a colossal whiny bitch.

That is all you have done today.

You suck.

[GrandeDavid]

There's nothing that could make my day more than extending Suns org's misery with yet another key loss to the Spurs.

[SenorSpur]

It was a foul on Stoudamire. Parker's gave a very weak entry pass into the post to Duncan.

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

Timmy-Time

[td4mvp21]

Come on Spurs, please make some plays

[RonMexico]

That was foul #6 on Stoudemire.

Shut up forever, Sun Fan.

I'll admit it... he's had about 12 this game... but Bowen has more than 2.

[Radiosparks]

I guess you don't remember the bomb threat that was called in last year? Chump acts like he's smart... but his memory is weak.

And I'm not supporting the bomb threat at all from last year... or the one I'm about to call in.

Too bad you didn't spoof your IP. You are DONE!

[1Parker1]

Spurs have not been playing smart all game long. They need to tighten up on offense and defense. This kind of play won't do anything for them in the playoffs against teams like Lakers, Jazz, etc. :pctoss

[TampaDude]

Nash, that lucky little shit.

Uh...luck has nothing to do with it...Nash is DEADLY from the perimeter...I'm actually surprised when his 3s don't go in!

[RonMexico]

Too bad you didn't spoof your IP. You are DONE!

I know.

And they probably have my caller ID, too :smokin

[Crookshanks]

Come on Spurs - just one more really good push and the game is yours!

[SAtown]

Good D by phx there

[BonnerDynasty]

Fucking refs. Eat shit and die you motherfuckers.

[td4mvp21]

That Was A Foul On Shaq Quit Swallowing The Fucking Whistle

[davemaniscool]

another foul on snack. 7 and counting

[ChumpDumper]

Los refs are great.

[Radiosparks]

I know.

And they probably have my caller ID, too :smokin

Not even close.

[WalterBenitez]

I am nervous :D

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

we havent scored in ages

[SAtown]

Fucking Duncan

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

WTF timmy

[TampaDude]

Ballgame...those 2 points were absolutely critical!

[Kriz-Maxima]

BS foul

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

that was NOT a block !!!

[ShoogarBear]

Bullshit, that was offensive.

2nd time Amare should be gone.

[RonMexico]

Fucking refs. Eat shit and die you motherfuckers.

Be careful... ChumpDumper will call you a colassal whiny bitch.

See - it happens to the best of us... this crew is terrible today... they've lost complete control of the game.

[SAtown]

Thomas' feet were fucking SET. That was a CHARGE

[td4mvp21]

That Was A Fucking Offensive Foul

[UV Ray]

I guess you don't remember the bomb threat that was called in last year? Chump acts like he's smart... but his memory is weak.

And I'm not supporting the bomb threat at all from last year... or the one I'm about to call in.

Dude, that's not EVEN funny. The FBI may be knocking on your door.

[lefty]

Duncan dunk that ball !!! :pctoss

[td4mvp21]

That Was A Fucking Shitty Ass Call

[davemaniscool]

Stoudemire has 8 and counting. including that charge.

[Kriz-Maxima]

Penetrate motherfuckers

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

i havent wanted a game so selfishly in a while. good stuff

[davemaniscool]

Is there some deal that phx and the ABC network have that I don't know about?

[SAtown]

Damnit :pctoss

[Amuseddaysleeper]

fucking bullshit

[noles1983]

quit dickin around spurs!!!unreal

[td4mvp21]

Wow Fuck This, Fuck This The Refs Are Swallowing Their Whistles For Us And Now Calling Everything For The Suns. We Aren't Winning This Game.

[ShoogarBear]

Nash with another moving pick.

[endrity]

This Suns team clearely likes to play slow tempo now. This is their kind of game as well. You have to run on them.

[WalterBenitez]

NO NBA refs would call an Amare's foul

[1Parker1]

Bullshit, Spurs played like crap this game.

[ChumpDumper]

This is pretty hilarious.

[SAtown]

8-0 PHX run
