[Warlord23]

Horry needs to sit. I know Pop wants to get him into form but he's totally killing us

[Budkin]

It's hard to keep the faith but am going to.

[George Gervin's Afro]

let's see we lose on friday and then on saturday.. by then we will be challenging the mavs for the 7th spot.... way to pick it up at the end of the season...

[Spurologist]

The defense has been good enough in the 3rd for it not to be a blowout.

So much for that idea

[remingtonbo2001]

At least Tim is still capable of spinning his way to the rim.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Pop better change his offensive strategy.

[Manu's Bald Spot]

Our offense is nowhere near championship caliber, this is just pathetic

[ednobli2]

Can't wait till this preseason ends. But what can you do when everything falls for them. I am just tired of homer announcers saying good d when the spurs just miss shots.

[Budkin]

Horry needs to sit. I know Pop wants to get him into form but he's totally killing us

He needs to sit the rest of his career.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Lol he gonna get knocked out this year i bet...someone gonna punch him :elephant

Yeah, great let's cheer for violence!

Moron.

:rolleyes

[Amarelooms]

let's see we lose on friday and then on saturday.. by then we will be challenging the mavs for the 7th spot.... way to pick it up at the end of the season...

Naa Spurs need to keep the 2nd seed...Mavs need that first round matchup :elephant

[dbreiden83080]

What a disgrace this is. Can't score for shit, not getting Duncan the ball, we look like a CBA team on offense for gods sake. TONY, can you make a fucking FT????!!!

[diego]

oberto can and should take his minutes, 3pt shooting be damned

[san antonio spurs]

Udoka's shot makes me sick :pctoss

[Budkin]

Why is it so hard for this team to play well? They've got a ton of talent and great chemistry. Do they really just not care?

[BlackSwordsMan]

At least a new south park is on soon.

[1Parker1]

Spurs turning the ball over, missing open shots, not moving the ball, and missing FT's. And not playing any defense on top of that.

Parker with 21 points, but 2-6 from FT land.

Duncan's defense is streaky.

Ginobili is getting easily to the basket, but for some reason his energy isn't there and you don't feel his impact on the game like you usually do.

Combine that with the fact that the Spurs can't hit a 3 pointer and their bench has about 4 points and it accumlates to a double digit deficit.

[callo1]

We miss Brent tonight

[ricketts]

Put Bonner

Horry is doing nothing


I agree, he's a foul liability but i dont think that matters at this point. we need energy and someone who can make a bucket.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Link to the game please??

Use Google.

[remingtonbo2001]

At least a new south park is on soon.

Yea! :clap

[remingtonbo2001]

Why have we gone away from Duncan this season?

[Warlord23]

Udoka has been one big clusterfuck these last few games. Can't keep his compousre can't make open shots

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Game over.

If the Spurs gave up tonight, why should I bother watching?

Why do you always assume that they've "given up"???

Maybe they are being OUTPLAYED.

And if you turn the TV off now you are NOT A TRUE SPURS FAN.

[TampaDude]

NFW the Spurs are going to win this game.

NFW the Spurs are going to beat the Pistons or the Celtics playing like this.

NFW the Spurs are going to repeat playing like this.

[Obstructed_View]

Is there some reason they're booing Timmy? That's kind of lame.

[Budkin]

10 again. Still not over.

[Josepatches]

Parker has to stop shooting if he can't make a fucking FT

[remingtonbo2001]

You can make a fuckin 3 but no FT's.

:wtf

[Obstructed_View]

Why do you always assume that they've "given up"???

Maybe they are being OUTPLAYED.

And if you turn the TV off now you are NOT A TRUE SPURS FAN.
Oh fuck off with that stupid shit. Fans shouldn't have to watch no effort games.

[Spurologist]

TPPPPPPPPPPPPPp

333333333333333333333333333333

[Spurs Brazil]

TP 33333333333333

Hornets up 9

[Budkin]

There we go... 9 again. Come on guys.

[Obstructed_View]

And why is Parker taking threes all of a sudden?

[Budkin]

D is still terrible. We need it.

[remingtonbo2001]

NFW the Spurs are going to win this game.

NFW the Spurs are going to beat the Pistons or the Celtics playing like this.

NFW the Spurs are going to repeat playing like this.

Tim Duncan begs to differ.

[Spurs Brazil]

TD and one!!!!!!!!

Please play a little D now

[Warlord23]

They're wasting a great offensive game from Duncan and Parker .. sigh

[Budkin]

Duncan and one... we still have a while quarter.

[Sigz]

C'mon Spurs lets go!

[George Gervin's Afro]

sigh..hornets making it look easy..

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Why have we gone away from Duncan this season?

Because he's simply not the automatic score he used to be, and we look better when we move the ball and penetrate than stiffle everything with too much 4-down.

[remingtonbo2001]

Fuck shooting freethrows. It's not like we're going to make them.
The freethrows are slowing down our momentum.

[Spurs Brazil]

Those missed FTs are killing us

And terrible D again

[Spurologist]

Why the fuck is the crowd booing tp?

[Tek_XX]

Tim DUNK the fucking ball you pussy.

[George Gervin's Afro]

cp with a 3 to end the qtr..you heard it here first..

[Obstructed_View]

The Hornets have no inside game; they're making tons of jumpers. Hard to beat a team when they just don't miss.

[boutons_]

the entire bench and 2 starters: 8 pts in 3 qtrs.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

D is still terrible. We need it.

Yup, it's the lack of stops that's killing us.

They are also making some sweet shots - see, Stoj, P.

[ednobli2]

Seems like the hornets are just making their shots....no drives to the basket

[remingtonbo2001]

Breaking News: SPURS MAKE A FUCKIN FREETHROW.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Oh fuck off with that stupid shit. Fans shouldn't have to watch no effort games.

No effort??? Bullshit, WE ARE BEING OUTPLAYED.

[callo1]

Timmy is starting to have that look about him

[remingtonbo2001]

Breaking News: SPURS GET A FUCKIN STOP.

[BlackSwordsMan]

How's chandler? I'm waiting for someone to do a Rodman on a camera man soon.

[BlackSwordsMan]

Timmy is starting to have that look about him
the shaq look?

[reddog 99]

the entire bench and 2 starters: 8 pts in 3 qtrs.

That is and has been the problem lately.

Shit do we really need bones that bad.

Our bench has been sickly for a while.

[ednobli2]

hopefully the bees will fall in love with jump shots and miss some more. Please law of averages.

[T Park]

Tim DUNK the fucking ball you pussy.


Oh go to hell.

[George Gervin's Afro]

No effort??? Bullshit, WE ARE BEING OUTPLAYED.


yes o wise one..we are getting outplayed...

[Warlord23]

Role-players' shooting tonight is going from bad to worse: 4-21 with 8 points

[nkdlunch]

I came in late. why is crowd booing spurs??

[peskypesky]

Would all of you whining crybabies STFU and go dry your panties? There's a whole quarter to be played and SPurs are still in this one. Thank God the SPurs' players have more grit and composure than all of y'all.

And if we should lose this one, we lose to one of the best teams in the league, not some scrubs. But we ain't lost yet.

[Tek_XX]

The way the Spurs are playing in some of these games i have no problem visualizing them getting swept during the playoffs.

[Obstructed_View]

No effort??? Bullshit, WE ARE BEING OUTPLAYED.
Yeah, they've been outplayed a lot lately. Jack up jumpers and don't play defense and you're pretty certain to be outplayed.

[BlackSwordsMan]

I came in late. why is crowd booing spurs??
Bowen looked like he kicked CP on the floor and the foul got called on CP.

[ricketts]

No effort??? Bullshit, WE ARE BEING OUTPLAYED.

i dont think its being out played, hornets just cant miss. almost all the jumpers they put up are contested. its sick.

[Galileo]

And why is Parker taking threes all of a sudden?

he reads the spurstalk blog, even during gametime.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Obstructed View and T Park, I'm calling you out.

Out of frustration you threaten to turn off the TV. You claim there is no effort out there. Bullshit. The Spurs are trying but aren't the better team so far tonight. And you NEVER turn your back on the team, no matter how bad it gets, or you are just a FAIRWEATHER FAN.

Check your heads.

[Tek_XX]

STFU dumbass

[Spurologist]

No effort??? Bullshit, WE ARE BEING OUTPLAYED.

C'mon. Point blank. Spurs have taken several possessions off. It has been PATHETIC to watch

[1Parker1]

Spurs can't stop CP3; He has 26 points and 16 assists and there's still a whole quarter to go.

The dilemna for Pop is that if/when he took Bowen of Peja and put him on Paul, Peja went off. Udoka did not defend Peja good at all.

Oh and throw in the fact that David West is hurting the Spurs yet again and the Spurs are having a difficult time finding a defense that works against these 3 players.

That's the game right there.

[callo1]

What most of you people need to understand is that this is a regular season game....you should all know by now the Spurs will rachet it up in the playoffs...GEEEEZE!!!

[BlackSwordsMan]

Spurs should take the next 20 games off and rest.

[loveforthegame]

It will be nice to have Barry back but I don't know why you think it'll make our bench scoring all better.

[Warlord23]

Oh man .. no TP or TD to start this quarter ... this is gonna get ugly real quick

[remingtonbo2001]

Breaking News: WE SUCK.

[TampaDude]

Duncan has his 40th dub-dub of the season...he's doing his part...but where's our D? The Hornets just can't seem to miss...NFW to beat a team shooting almost 60%.

The Spurs have given up...Hornets will win by 25...

[still.focused]

This Spur team has a serious problem

[callo1]

Joke of a call on Kurt...the Whorenets have been setting movin screens ALL damn night and they call that cheap crap on the Spurs.

[Spurs Brazil]

Ball game

[George Gervin's Afro]

:rolleyes

[1Parker1]

Spurs start off the 4th with a turnover and offensive foul. Hornets up 13.

[FromWayDowntown]

I will say that it's apparent to me that this team really has no way to get easy baskets and that leads to long droughts that can allow some pretty long runs.

With that said, what's going on here is not particularly bothersome to me. The Hornets are hitting everything they throw up. While the Spurs' defense is somewhat troublesome, there's just no defense for some of what's going down. No real reason to get pissed about the Spurs' inability to stop unstoppable shots.

[1Parker1]

Make that 14.

[Obstructed_View]

Obstructed View and T Park, I'm calling you out.

Out of frustration you threaten to turn off the TV. You claim there is no effort out there. Bullshit. The Spurs are trying but aren't the better team so far tonight. And you NEVER turn your back on the team, no matter how bad it gets, or you are just a FAIRWEATHER FAN.

Check your heads.
First of all, I'm listening to the game on my computer. Second, I don't give a rat's ass what you think. Third, fifteen point lead.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Oh, so every time we lose it's because of lack of effort, and every time we win we were the better team. I get it. :rolleyes

[SAtown]

What most of you people need to understand is that this is a regular season game....you should all know by now the Spurs will rachet it up in the playoffs...GEEEEZE!!!

The playoffs are around the corner. This team needs to assure HCA for at least the first couple of rounds. This is not just another regular season game.

[FromWayDowntown]

Oh yeah . . . .


BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! [/Hornets fan]

[Obstructed_View]

Oh, so every time we lose it's because of lack of effort, and every time we win we were the better team. I get it. :rolleyes
Just shut up. Make your fucking observations and let others make theirs.

[Sigz]

The Hornets are simply the better team tonight.

[remingtonbo2001]

We still have our 1st round pick this year, correct?

[George Gervin's Afro]

I can't wait for the detroit game..Thank God I have softball games friday night..

[SAtown]

3 fouls in one possession?

[BlackSwordsMan]

I can't wait for the detroit game..Thank God I have softball games friday night..
:depressed

[JohnnySixString]

Really now, it seems all Spurs fans should be completely used to this by now. Did they play so great against the Nuggets that it's confusing to see them play like crap against the Hornets? This is the way they've been playing.

[ShoogarBear]

All right, I'm calling a Rally Chat!

[nkdlunch]

holy shit. Spurs playing like crap!!

Manu playing in slow motion

[Obstructed_View]

Got a shot at getting into the bonus early. Good sign.

[remingtonbo2001]

roughnreadyozstyle noone likes you

and noone like you. But you manage to come around anyways.

[Capt Bringdown]

This season is about complacency and hubris.
Complacency regarding resting on our laurels and not upgrading our team during the off season. Playing poorly during the regular season in the belief that we'll simply play better in the playoffs.
Hubris - well, it was our hubris which led to our complacency.

[WalterBenitez]

we went back to suck level -10, right? ro those guys are real?

[Obstructed_View]

But only if they can hit their free throws.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I will say that it's apparent to me that this team really has no way to get easy baskets and that leads to long droughts that can allow some pretty long runs.

With that said, what's going on here is not particularly bothersome to me. The Hornets are hitting everything they throw up. While the Spurs' defense is somewhat troublesome, there's just no defense for some of what's going down. No real reason to get pissed about the Spurs' inability to stop unstoppable shots.

:tu Some sense around here, finally.

When the other team hits its tough shots and you miss your easy ones, I reckon that's called being outplayed.

[Tek_XX]

Hey i'll give credit to the Hornets fans, they've been consistantly booing. Our fans would have stopped after 15 seconds.

[callo1]

Some times teams simply get hot. I'm not going to get to bent out of shape on this game regardless of the outcome. I know the Spurs can and will turn it up in the playoffs...hornets can't play any better.

[diego]

ehh there is still a chance. i think a lot of it is pop not settling on a rotation

at least the hornets announcers arent so bad

[loveforthegame]

Spurs better hold on to home court cause they won't do anything on the road.

[peskypesky]

This Spur team has a serious problem

Oh, you mean the fact that they have to play good teams?

[Spurs Brazil]

Hornets FG-59%

[TampaDude]

Way too many missed FTs tonight...the bonus won't matter...

[Manu's Bald Spot]

what is up with our bench/rest of our starters???? We aren't winning anything in the playoffs if our role players don't do anything

[Warlord23]

Uh-oh .. Horry back in

[Amarelooms]

The Hornets are simply the better team tonight.

Spurs homers need to relax....your team is good but it's not like they are a dominant team or way better than most of the teams in the playoff hunt :elephant

Even last year...ya'll won but if a few bounces go the other way da Suns would have won. Playoffs gonna be great this year :elephant

[JohnnySixString]

Oh, you mean the fact that they have to play good teams?


LOL, they have to worry about the crappy ones too.

[1Parker1]

I will say that it's apparent to me that this team really has no way to get easy baskets and that leads to long droughts that can allow some pretty long runs.

Yes, but their lack of offense outside of the Big 3 has been worrysome for almost the whole season now. It's scary how dependent the Spurs are on offense of the Big 3. They luck out because usually on most nights, at least two of the Big 3 have a good offensive night, if not all 3.

You have to wonder if guys like Horry, Damon, Oberto, will ever get it going. Finley is hot and cold every 10 or so games. Bowen isn't going to give you double digit points, but that's ok because his defense is still there. But where is the offense with the 2nd unit if Pop continues to start Ginobili (which I think he should).?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

wtf is pop doing??

[Warlord23]

Finley attempting one with 2 hands in his face! LMAO!!

[remingtonbo2001]

This is absolute bullshit. :pctoss


Meh...I'm over it. Who's tomorrow?

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley miss another one

Hornets up 15

[Creation88]

horrible rebounding and terrible shot selection haunts us again.

[Obstructed_View]

4 minutes into the 4th quarter, zero shots within 18 feet of the basket for the Spurs.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Just shut up. Make your fucking observations and let others make theirs.

Which one would you like, shut up or not?

How exactly can I prevent anyone from making an observation?

Don't project your frustration over the Spurs onto me.

[Tek_XX]

Did elliot just say the spurs can't let the hornets get away from them?

[Obstructed_View]

4 minutes into the 4th quarter, zero shots within 18 feet of the basket for the Spurs.
15 footer. Yee ha.

[T-Pain]

why is the crowd booing all the spurs? (besides the fact they are playing their team)

[Spurs Brazil]

Stupid Horry DAMN

[Tek_XX]

Good job Tim letting them post 4 feet from the basket.

[Spurologist]

Brace yourself for this



















On the floor

Bowen
Horry
Oberto
Vaughn
Finley

[loveforthegame]

The role players deserve a lot of blame but our starters are logging the majority of minutes so it can't rest entirely on the bench.

[SAtown]

Boooooooooooooooooooooo

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Why is Horry in the game? He's been pathetic.

[boutons_]

-15, 7 mins. left

[Obstructed_View]

Which one would you like, shut up or not?

How exactly can I prevent anyone from making an observation?

Don't project your frustration over the Spurs onto me.

I'm not frustrated with the Spurs. You need to shut up about whether or not you think someone's a good fan, particularly when you are talking about someone who spends a hell of a lot more time and money on the Spurs than you do.

[George Gervin's Afro]

seriuosly should we just sit TD FOR THE REST OF THE GAME?

[Warlord23]

Bowen had all fucking day to make that ... this is getting comical

[peskypesky]

Did elliot just say the spurs can't let the hornets get away from them?

Clean the cr-p out of your ears and maybe you'll be able to hear.

[remingtonbo2001]

why is the crowd booing all the spurs? (besides the fact they are playing their team)

They're finally letting out all that pent up emotion from being dicked over by the government.

[Spurs Brazil]

Another miss wide open

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Owwww... hope TP hasn't hurt his knee or groin there.

[remingtonbo2001]

Seriously Pop, just call it a night and go back to the drawing board.

[boutons_]

Tony's FT has totally gone to shit, he's got not touch whatsoever.

[Warlord23]

15 point deficit with 6 minutes, and NOH in the penalty. But I wouldn't bet on them scoring 15 in an entire quarter with the FG and FT shooting going on out there

[Spurs Brazil]

Omg Tp

2-8ft

[Sp Ginobili 20]

Damnit. Make the FT

[carina_gino20]

what the hell, Tony? scratch that, what the hell, Spurs?

[Obstructed_View]

If Tony would hit 50 percent from the line, I'd make a fortune in vbucks. :)

[Tek_XX]

Clean the cr-p out of your ears and maybe you'll be able to hear.

AHH shutup you old hag.

[boutons_]

Spurs will be lucky to break 80 pts

Could be a very bad week

[Obstructed_View]

38-25 rebounding edge for the Hornets, but the Spurs are just playing a better team.

[George Gervin's Afro]

Let's Rest Td And Tp...this Game Is Over..

[Spurs Brazil]

Sit the big 3 Pop

It's over

And Finley miss another 3

[Budkin]

Hornets want to beat their record for kicking our asses.

[callo1]

And that shot by Fin sums it up tonight.

Lack of scoring from the 3pt line has nothing to do with any hornets D, just missed shots for Spurs.

[some_user86]

This is like watching a horror show. I missed the blow-out earlier in the year, so I guess I now know how that one felt.

[Admidave50]

horrible execution by the Spurs

[Tek_XX]

They're finally letting out all that pent up emotion from being dicked over by the government.

Whatever you know they're all from the suburbs.

[George Gervin's Afro]

Well There Is Some Good News I Will Win My Vbookie Bet Tonight..

[Obstructed_View]

5:11 to go in the quarter, and the Spurs appear to have zero shots in the paint. When your jumper is off, just keep shooting them, they'll come around.

[Jobbs]

it's never over as long as finley has the green light.......
......












........

[spyder]

GAME OVER :depressed Finley and Horry are horrible :pctoss

[some_user86]

And that shot by Fin sums it up tonight.

Lack of scoring from the 3pt line has nothing to do with any hornets D, just missed shots for Spurs.

I can't wait for Barry's return.

[Spurologist]

Michael Finley's brick house is almost complete

[ednobli2]

Why does CP3 bitch all the time he hasn't won the MVP yet or any playoff games?

[WildcardManu]

Pathetic performance by the Spurs. They need to get it together.

[carina_gino20]

And that shot by Fin sums it up tonight.

Lack of scoring from the 3pt line has nothing to do with any hornets D, just missed shots for Spurs.

Manu will come off the bench against Detroit. :lol

[mVp]

Tony 2/8 FT... wow... WTF is Chip Engelland doing?

[Josepatches]

Let's Rest Td And Tp...this Game Is Over..

Let's rest TP forever

[loveforthegame]

This was a night we could have used Bonner's energy.

No way Spurs beat Detroit or Boston coming up. They'll be lucky to be Philly at this point.

[ricketts]

when was the last time the spurs were blown out by the same team twice in one season?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I'm not frustrated with the Spurs. You need to shut up about whether or not you think someone's a good fan, particularly when you are talking about someone who spends a hell of a lot more time and money on the Spurs than you do.

Yeah, I haven't traveled to SA twice from the other side of the world to see them play or anything (probably $40K worth right there alone). Oh, I haven't watched almost every game this season. And I don't spend hours on ST either. :rolleyes Don't pull that bullshit on me.

You said you were going to give up on them 1/2 way through the third quarter out of frustration and I called you out on it. You don't give up on your team. But, no, I'm in the wrong.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I'm surprised the spurs didn't capitalize on the forced TO's of NO.

Finley sucks.

Why is Manu still out. Is he hurt?

[Budkin]

What the fuck happened to this team?

[1Parker1]

8 points by the Spurs bench compared to 18 by the Hornets bench.

Finley disgusts me. As does Pop. What was he going to lose playing Bonner instead of Horry?? :pctoss

[dbreiden83080]

That's it for me done watching it is making me sick. Worst game played by the Spurs in maybe a month. They had nobody but Tony and Tim play well and even Tony could not make a FT. Manu sucked, the bench sucked the D sucked, what a shitty game. :madrun

[Obstructed_View]

Why does CP3 bitch all the time he hasn't won the MVP yet or any playoff games?
I hated him when he was on the olympic team because he had a scowl on his face all the time and bitched about every call he did or didn't get. He was an embarassment.

[WildcardManu]

props to the hornets, they are playing aggresive like they really want it more.

[JohnnySixString]

I can't wait for Barry's return.


What exactly do you think that will do? The Spurs as a team sucks. They will suck just as much with him back. Barry's absence isn't the problem here.

[TampaDude]

West with the dagger...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Michael Finley's brick house is almost complete

:lmao

:oops

[Budkin]

Hopefully we lose by 30+

[ricketts]

i swear to god if we close the gap with bonner in i am gonna start a fire pop thread.

[Obstructed_View]

I think the boos are from the Spurs fans in the building.

[ednobli2]

They can't miss shit. They will never have a better shooting night that tonight

[1Parker1]

20 point lead with 4 minutes left in the 4th. Pop is an idiot for not sitting the starters.

[boutons_]

Kinda hard to see June from here.
Spurs got nothing

[diego]

why not try udoka on west? horry thomas and oberto arent getting it done.

i've always thought one of our strenghts is the pressure the big 3 put on the other teams frontline. they need to be drawing fouls on teams with good frontcourts (ie, contenders)

[loveforthegame]

All of you are bagging on Finley? But who else do you want to shoot instead? Horry? Udoka? Stoudamire? Vaughn? Oberto?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Pop and Finley suck. This game was stupid. I 'm glad I didn't watch much of.

[1Parker1]

Edit: He sits them after I said it. Waves the red flag, puts in Vaughn, Bonner and the scrubs AKA the Spurs bench. :)

[Budkin]

Pop could always call them soft but I don't think they really care.

[Tek_XX]

Yeah, I haven't traveled to SA twice from the other side of the world to see them play or anything (probably $40K worth right there alone). Oh, I haven't watched almost every game this season. And I don't spend hours on ST either. :rolleyes Don't pull that bullshit on me.

You said you were going to give up on them 1/2 way through the third quarter out of frustration and I called you out on it. You don't give up on your team. But, no, I'm in the wrong.

Is that all you do, bitch about bitching. Let fans get their fustrations out and quit bitching.

[Obstructed_View]

All of you are bagging on Finley? But who else do you want to shoot instead? Horry? Udoka? Stoudamire? Vaughn? Oberto?
Hmmm...could it beeeee.....

DUNCAN?????

[Capt Bringdown]

when was the last time the spurs were blown out by the same team twice in one season?
good point

[ednobli2]

Let's trust in the spurs TITS no need to shit a brick. I will bitch IF they lose in the playoffs

[callo1]

Breaking News: WE SUCK.

Yeah, 2nd place in the West with the most games in a one month period in Spurs history with alot of back to backs of late and always gettings teams best shot as defending champs...Spurs wake the hell up and cancel the rest of the season:)



D0000000MZ !!! The sky is falling !!

[Obstructed_View]

Pop could always call them soft but I don't think they really care.
It's about four games overdue.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Wow. We're in trouble. Need to settle on a rotation and hope for the best.

NO are for real.

[1Parker1]

Oh my gosh, with 4 minutes left, the Spurs have scored 4 Frickin points in the 4th quarter :wow

[WildcardManu]

The bright side is, Spurs lose this one, get trashed by analysts everywhere being overlooked and we are back under the radar.

[WalterBenitez]

How many of these we will have?? :yield

Givin our asses up is our latest style, right?
:baby

[dbreiden83080]

I'm surprised the spurs didn't capitalize on the forced TO's of NO.

Finley sucks.

Why is Manu still out. Is he hurt?

What i hate about Finley is he is either really good or just plain AWFUL. His D sucks, so if he can't hit open jumpers what good is he????

[Obstructed_View]

Yeah, 2nd place in the West with the most games in a one month period in Spurs history with alot of back to backs of late and always gettings teams best shot as defending champs...Spurs wake the hell up and cancel the rest of the season:)
Excuses and moral victories win championships every year.

[peskypesky]

when was the last time the spurs were blown out by the same team twice in one season?
I think the Bucks killed us twice last year.

[ricketts]

god bless, this is sick.

[Barbarian]

Glad this shit wasn't on national tv....This is fucking embarassing.

[Obstructed_View]

3:15 to go, zero shot attempts in the paint for the Spurs.

[Amarelooms]

D0000000MZ !!! The sky is falling !!

Spurs tanking on purpose to avoid the Mavs in the first round...smart move by Pop :elephant

[1Parker1]

The analyst on NBA TV just said a disgusting stat; Spurs have lost 12 of their last 16 games against teams above .500 :wow :wow

[boutons_]

fucking wow, going hard for 30 pt blow out

[word]

Hey Timmy ....

HORNETS!!!! :elephantWho said they were a fluke? :lol
CP3 4 MVP!!!

As will pissing and moaning

[Tek_XX]

There's no upside to this, we'd be under the radar for a good reason.

[Admidave50]

wtf just realized that we scored only 4 pts

[1Parker1]

Anyone else think the Hornets match up well against the Spurs? Bowen can't exactly guard CP3, West, Peja, AND Bonzi by himself.

[carina_gino20]

Wow. This game sucked. How did Manu play? I'm not watching the game, but it seems like he wasn't that involved this game. Has SuperManu finally ran out of gas?

[JohnnySixString]

Which makes me keep wondering why everyone is so upset about them playing like crap. They've BEEN playing like crap and are just continuing to do so.

[loveforthegame]

Hmmm...could it beeeee.....

DUNCAN?????

I'm talking about the bench. You know the big 3 are going to get there shots but people keep talking about Finley like he's the only one sucking off the bench. Who else do you want shooting off the bench besides him? It'll be nice to have Barry back but people act like that's going to solve our bench's scoring woes.

[WalterBenitez]

Glad this shit wasn't on national tv....This is fucking embarassing.

The world is watching San Antonio Sucks agains those bees ... and Houst ahead of us?? you must be kiddin'

[carina_gino20]

wow. 21-6 in the 4th quarter. :pctoss

[ednobli2]

Everyone calm down. Look at the bees shooting percentage. We can't make shots.

[Allanon]

I can't believe I'm watching the Hornets beat the Spurs by 26 points.

26 friggin' points...shocked.

[Spurologist]

:lol

Commentator is sucking off the hornets.

"The hornets have beat down the defending champs. The spurs are not one of the best 3 teams in the west"

"Second half explosion. The crowd has been vociferous................"

WTF have they just won the championship?????

The Spurs need shot attempts in the paint, not jumpers.

WE HAVE A LAYUP!

[Tike Mailer]

I know how Spurs Nation is hurting tonight. I'm proposing that all Mavs fans observe a truce from piling on the team that got blown out tonight, holmes.

[Budkin]

Worst loss of the season by far.

[Russ]

Good thing the Spurs beat Denver the other night (or this would really look bad).

[ricketts]

Everyone calm down. Look at the bees shooting percentage. We can't make shots.


:clap

[noles1983]

pathetic

[Obstructed_View]

Would all of you whining crybabies STFU and go dry your panties? There's a whole quarter to be played and SPurs are still in this one. Thank God the SPurs' players have more grit and composure than all of y'all.
6 points so far in the quarter. The grit and composure is just overwhelming. :lmao

[ednobli2]

:lol

yup this is their season. Like Cleveland sweeping us during the regular season.

[Ronaldo McDonald]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the spurs will not repeat.

This team doesn't have the offensive coordination or production to overcome tough defenses like the ones we've seen from Suns, Nuggets, and Hornets.

Bottom line is this: teams (the Nuggz, Suns, and Hornets - and others will follow suit if they've been paying any attention) have finally figured it out: you need to play physical D in order to beat the us. We don't have the physical players that you need to play through that.

[Russ]

To quote General McAuliffe: "Nuts." :)

[peskypesky]

It's the regular season, people. Not the playoffs. Get a grip. Do you really want the Spurs to be the basketball equivalent of the Patriots?

[Obstructed_View]

Look where all the shots are coming from. When you jack up jumpers and continue to jack them up even though they aren't going in it's the sign of a lazy team. Lazy teams get blown out.

[efrem1]

What happened to Oberto tonight? I just got home from work and I am too lazy to check all of the threads.

[Barbarian]

How long till the Hornets fans start pouring in on ST?

[boutons_]

12th March and Spurs aren't even competing.

[ednobli2]

Everyone's shot is off. Except anyone wearing a hornets jersey

The Nuggets tough defense?

/speechless

The Suns tough defense....LMAO

:lol
Losing by 25, outrebounded by 20. Right now they're the basketball equivalent of the Dolphins.

[Budkin]

It's our fucking offense that kills us now. It's just gone. Gone.

[ednobli2]

How long till the Hornets fans start pouring in on ST?

hopefully never unless their using FEMA cards to pay for internet and computers

[Ronaldo McDonald]

How long till the Hornets fans start pouring in on ST?

Give them a chance, man. I doubt they even know about it. Most are still learning the names of their starting five.

[Obstructed_View]

That was inspiring.

[boutons_]

Spurs are mostly dependent on 3Gs, not on driving and Tim's inside game.

[Allanon]

How long till the Hornets fans start pouring in on ST?

Hornets have fans? Never met one :)

Man, the SouthWest Division is tough...Houston, Spurs, Bees, Mavs tight up like spandex.

25 point beatdown, ouch. And Mighty Mouse shot 2 airballs there at the end.
