Spurs In 2nd

[jdelar03]

The Spurs are now in 2nd and this is awsome but I want some input on what has changed since the spurs started the season really dominant. And now where they seem to be unable to put 4 quarters of Spurs B-ball in a night.

First 50 win WC team this year. woot

[FilSpursFan]

:drunk :drunk :hat :hat

[Jimcs50]

Might stay there too....Lakers are losing to Griz at home in 3rd 79-75, despite Kobe having 47 of the 75 pts.

[Jimcs50]

89-80 now after 3 :elephant

Hopefully Kobe gets that tech foul tonight and misses Washington game on Sunday...they would lose that game w/o him.

:)

[boutons_]

Looking good in LA. Often when Kobe scores a ton, Lakers lose.

[Jimcs50]

96-89

Kobe has 51

Kobe now has 23 50 pt games, 3rd most all time

:toast

[Jimcs50]

100-91

[DAF86]

kobe 51 on 18/33 fg i'm not watching the game but you can tell he's forcing the issue. that's why he's not the mvp in my opinion. when you're forcing a lot of shots you take your teammates out of rhythm (even if you're making most of those shots) so when you get a little cold nobody else is going to be able to score

[Indazone]

Better bring your A game on Sun boyzzz!!

[Jimcs50]

18-33 is a nice percentage, better than any team in the league.

He will be MVP, no doubt about it.

[Brutalis]

It's like the moment we get the buzzer a thread like this is done.

[Jimcs50]

damn Lakers within 4....looks like we were just being teased.

:depressed

[DAF86]

18-33 is a nice percentage, better than any team in the league.

i'm not talking 'bout the fg % i'm talking about taking 33 in 3 Qtrs. while the rest of the team just looks at him

[ducks]

i'm not talking 'bout the fg % i'm talking about taking 33 in 3 Qtrs. while the rest of the team just looks at him
did not the spurs do that once in awhile with david robinson

[Jimcs50]

i'm not talking 'bout the fg % i'm talking about taking 33 in 3 Qtrs. while the rest of the team just looks at him


the rest of the team is 19-53

WTF do you want Kobe to do...just let them all keep missing?

:rolleyes

[ilovethespurs]

Spurs fan here in Manila, Philippines:

Go for seven, beat the Rockets. :flag:
Go SPURS Go!

[Jimcs50]

109-106....2 mins left

[hsxvvd]

Lakers will be #1 no way Grizz close out this game.

[Jimcs50]

44 secs left

Memphis up 2 pts 111-109 after a LA 3 poiner

:madrun

[boutons_]

Come on Grizz, hang on.

+2, with ball, :44 left. run down the clock, score and then defend.

[Jimcs50]

16 secs left

Memphis shooting FTs

[loveforthegame]

I thought Lowry cost them the game with that turnover but Odom missed a big shot and forced the Lakers to foul.

[Jimcs50]

Lakers will be #1 no way Grizz close out this game.
:drunk



Up 4 with 16 secs left


:elephant

[boutons_]

yes, +4 grizz, :16 left, final possession for lakers, but they need 2 possessions

[loveforthegame]

Lowry hit both ft's. 16 seconds left.

[Indazone]

Grizzlies win the game!!! Whooo Hoooo!!

[Indazone]

NAHH NAHHH NAHH NAHHHH HEYY HEYYY GOODBYEEEEEE!!!

C'ya Lakers!!!

[DAF86]

the rest of the team is 19-53

WTF do you want Kobe to do...just let them all keep missing?

:rolleyes

that's what happens when you take 33 on 3 Qtrs. all your teammates'll get cold

[hsxvvd]

Lakers 15-45 from 3pt... 45 3pt attempts.... holy crap!

[Indazone]

So who's number 1 in the standings now? Hornets lost, Lakers lost. Does this mean Spurs number 1 again?

[Jimcs50]

that's what happens when you take 33 on 3 Qtrs. all your teammates'll get cold

STFU

:rolleyes


Had Kobe not been on the team, this team would lose 70 games.

[Indazone]

1.5 sec left and Griz have the ball. No way the Lakers come back. Gay will ice the game.

[Jimcs50]

So who's number 1 in the standings now? Hornets lost, Lakers lost. Does this mean Spurs number 1 again?

NO is Number 1, they are 2 games up on Spurs because of tiebreaker

[Jimcs50]

114-111

Yessss!

[boutons_]

What an amazing defeat, Lakers get beat at home.

kobe scores a ton, loses.

[Indazone]

Grizzlies played good team ball. Very balanced scoring.

[boutons_]

Looks like they really need Gasol, when is he back?

[Indazone]

Even with Gasol back, won't help the Fakers lol

[Jimcs50]

Looks like they really need Gasol, when is he back?

He is scheduled to be back on Wednesday.

[DAF86]

51 points in the first 3 qtrs and only 2 in the 4th in a loss against memphis at home. Paul is the future MVP

[hsxvvd]

Darko!

[hsxvvd]

00.3 MEM - D. Milicic steals the ball from L. Walton

[hsxvvd]

Exhale.... jinx held up.

[Indazone]

Hornets 1, Spurs 2, Lakers 3, Jazz 4, Rockets 5

Man this is crazy!

[Jimcs50]

Lakers go down to 5 seed.

Man, you lose 2 games and you drop a lot of places....freaking weird year in the West, eh?

[Jimcs50]

Hornets 1, Spurs 2, Lakers 3, Jazz 4, Rockets 5

Man this is crazy!


Lakers are 5 seed....check it closer

[Indazone]

Are you serious? Lakers are the 5th seed? Guess that means the Rockets move up to 4th.

[Jimcs50]

Are you serious? Lakers are the 5th seed? Guess that means the Rockets move up to 4th.

Houston is 3rd...Utah is 4th

[Indazone]

I'm getting dizzy trying to keep up with the standings. You don't play you can drop 4 spots. If you play and lose you can go from 1 to 5. Damn!

[DAF86]

Houston is 3rd...Utah is 4th

no the suns or the lakers have to be among the first 4

[Jimcs50]

Spurs have won 6 straight and have only won 6 of last 10


That has not happened in Tim Duncan era.

[Jimcs50]

no the suns or the lakers have to be among the first 4

Riiight, because of that bullshit rule where division winner gets no lower than 4 seed...that is such a crock. Everyone plays same schedule except for 2 games....it should not matter if you win your crappy division.

[Warlord23]

1 Hornets
2 Spurs
3 Lakers (Pacific representative, although inferior record to Rockets)
4 Utah (Northwest representative, although inferior record to Rockets)
5 Houston

[Warlord23]

Wow, the top 3 records in the West belong to the Midwest division

[DAF86]

agree

[timaios]

Southwest

[Jimcs50]

Spurs now control their own destiny through WC semis....if NO wins 10 of last 11 games, they clinch the #1 seed, even if SA wins out.....damn head to head record will bite them in the ass.

[td4mvp21]

We have a very tough stretch coming up, I wouldn't expect this to last too long.

[DaDakota]

Gonna be a brawl on Sunday, we plan to unleash our inner Scola on you.

Scola!@? LOL :lol Fuck them Rocket hoes cuz!!!!

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

looks like it will be another Spurs-Nuggets 1st rd, assuming the Nuggets keep rolling. They could sneak up and grab the 7th seed but i doubt it.

[DazedAndConfused]

Health is all that matters going into the playoffs for any team capable of contending. I'll take health over HCA any day of the week. All teams 1-8 are good.

[Princess Pimp]

Lakers are 5 seed....check it closer

No dumbass the Lakers are still third they are division leaders.

Numbnuts!

[Jimcs50]

Um, read the post earlier, when I already noted my mistake and the commentary about how the rule is pussified.


Are you being a douchebag because you root for a loser franchise that has been around for 30+ years without ever even sniffing a ring, or are you just a prick? :flipoff

[SpurAddict561]

The division leaders will be no less than 4th at the end though

so all this means nothing

1. Hornets
2. Spurs or Rockets
3. Lakers
4. Jazz
5. Spurs or Rockets
6. Suns
7. Warriors
8. Nuggets

That's how I'm hoping it ends........I don't like being the 1 seed...it's bad luck in the West, check history.

[Jimcs50]

History has nothing to do with it. I want game 7 at home, period.
