Good game Spurs fans but honestly

[Amarelooms]

the Finley 3 and Duncan 3 wont happen often if ever again in these playoffs...ya'll were lucky to win that game...don expect the same in game 2 because AMARE LOOMS :elephant

[tp2021]

looming, looming, looming... always looming.
just STFU and learn how to PLAY TO WIN, jackass.

[ThomasGranger]

Don expect the Spurs to spot the Suns 16 points in game 2.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

not as much as DUNCAN LOOMS :elephant

[Amarelooms]

looming, looming, looming... always looming.
just STFU and learn how to PLAY TO WIN, jackass.

LOL Ducan 3 is playing to win...ok I'll take it..tell Pops to play to win more often...let him shoot more 3's

You Spurs homers here are a joke...watch next game if ya'll lose...everyone is acting like ya'll dominated that game...bail out 3's lol. People will be crying like little girls and claim the series is over if the SPurs lose game 2...watch and see. So sad indeed. :elephant

[tp2021]

what is sad is you parading in here like a pink-stink elephant after the suns and mavs both lost.
begone.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Suns lose, he falls back on the Mavs.
Mavs lose, he falls back on the Suns.
What to do now?

Im not a Suns fan...I like the Mavs...my nic is making fun of Suns homers if you dont realize that by now lol. If the Mavs dont win...which they wont since they suck ass... I will pull for the other Texas teams :elephant

Amare is overrated. Can't defend or shoot consistently. One dimensional and owned by the Spurs.

[stepmonkey]

Hey mavfan, I think you better worry about Chris Paul Looms.

[picnroll]

Adding to the list of why the Suns lost:
1. Joe Johnson out.
2. Nash "getting head butted" by Parker.
3. Amare and Diaw being to stupid to stay on the bench and the refs not DQing Duncan for standing up..
4. Donaghy throwing all four games the Spurs won.
5. Duncans three.
6. Shaq bulldozing over "floppers".

I can't wait to see what's the next sad story or excuse that Suns' fan has. :lol

[callo1]

Isn't the object of the game to put the orange round ball in the net? Didn't the Spurs do that more than the Dungs?

Why must some of you Dungs fans act so moronic and have an excuse for every damn loss that your piss poor franchise has ever incurred?

I guess 40 years of failure and being the leagues piss boy does that to you?

Just because Duncan doesn't take 3's often in games doesn't mean he can't hit them. He practices them before EVERY game. Had Amoron hit a big 3 in the game you would be here raving about the completness of his game and his 3 point skill.

It is dumbass posters like you that lose respect for the good Suns fans.

BTW, change you name to AmoronLooms, it is more fitting.

[Warlord23]

Here are a few other things I don't expect will happen:
- SA coming out cold to start the game. 6 missed FGs and 4 TOs before they scored their first FG.
- Nobody outside of Duncan doing anything in the first quarter and a half, spotting a 16 pt lead
- At least 6 to 8 blatantly blown calls from the officials in favor of the suns
- 8 TOs in the 1st quarter for a team which averages 13 a game
- Role players being invisible on offense (Bowen, Udoka, KT)
- Manu going 0-6 from the 3 point line
- Tony being near-concussed from that shot to the head

Think of the way the tide turned from 1st half to second. In the second half/OTs Shaq actually played more than he did in the 1st half. However, the 2nd half was when the Spurs cut down the TOs, started driving the ball through the D and taking Shaq away from the basket with the high pick and roll.

The Spurs scratched their heads for a half and started solving the problem in the 2nd. I'm looking for the Spurs perimeter players to come out looking to put the hurt on from the get-go on Tuesday. The Spurs played a god-awful 1st half and practically gift-wrapped Phoenix this game early on. If the Suns couldn't close the deal on this one, lets see what they do if SA gets the upper hand early in the game

[Dre_7]

Im confused. Is he a Suns fan or a Mavs fan?? :wtf

[nashfan13az]

As a suns I hope we win game 2 but I think it will be so hard consdering the way game 1 ended after that duncan 3 :(, I hope i'm wrong and the suns come out on fire because if the suns lose game two its over game 1 was the suns for the taking and they blew it you can't do that in the playoffs vs the spurs

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Im confused. Is he a Suns fan or a Mavs fan?? :wtf

Depends on which one is winning. But since they both lost he's just a hater right now.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Yep, if there's one thing we can count on is more bonehead fouls and foul trouble for your boy.

Yes this was one of the best win in Spurs playoff history, but it was only game 1, and the Spurs NEED to blow the Suns out in Gm2

There are no "messages" in the playoffs, except "We won four, now pack your bags for the summer". It doesn't matter if they're all by one. Spurs rarely blow out anyone in the post season. We just sort of grind them down.

With no intention to be condescending to you in any way but knowing you've been with us for some time and have direct knowledge of all the things people say in this forum I can't believe you still think the spurs won the game because they are just lucky. There's a big difference between both teams and that's mental toughness. It happened last year as well, and the year before. That's what make champions.

One day, people like Amare will learn they need to play and stop complaining. That they need to stop being the victims and call their own shots in life. You are the architect of your own life. The day you realize that is the day you conquer life. Learn, apply, practice and then maybe then you can be with the best.

It may be over for you, because you're a fucking quitter as evidenced by your uber-whiney "MUST" posts here, but it ain't over for the Spurs.

Grow a pair, bitch.

I'll give you some credit when you finally come up with some material to back up what you say. "Must" posts are not enough for the quality of this forum.

Also If I was you I would be worried about what happened last night at Houston. THAT was embarrassing. No balls whatsoever. No spirit.

Whatever makes you happy dumbass!

[FromWayDowntown]

I thought yesterday was more about heart, taking advantage of some good fortune, makings some good luck, and finding a wee bit of confidence than it was about being physically better than Phoenix. Nothing about the Game 1 win tells me that Phoenix is done or that San Antonio is somehow clearly favored to win the series. It tells me that if the Spurs face some adversity in subsequent games, they'll have the heart to try to overcome it, but it doesn't say to me that they're unlikely to face adversity down the road against the Suns.

For all that went wrong at times, a lot of things went right for the Spurs yesterday. I don't think they can hope for that and I'm a bit nervous about whether the Spurs are going to be consistently better than Phoenix without a little bit of luck.

[spursfan09]

I don't understand why people just think that the game was perfect for the Spurs. It had a perfect ending, but hopefully next time Barry plays more; Ginobili starts knocking his shots from the outside; and Tony Parker does not foul out again by fouling 3 point shooters. That is not something he does. Don't know what was up with him. His head was in the game, but maybe his vision was skewed from the hit he took?

[TampaDude]

They Spurs will be the ones knocked out in the first round, just watch!

Say...weren't you the one predicting a sweep by the Suns??? :lmao

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

Barry needs to take more 3s


and Manu needs his 3 back

[sprrs]

For all that went wrong at times, a lot of things went right for the Spurs yesterday. I don't think they can hope for that and I'm a bit nervous about whether the Spurs are going to be consistently better than Phoenix without a little bit of luck.

I think what it does though, is give worlds of confidence to the Spurs that they can play with the Suns. In the first half, as in the regular season, they looked scared against the Suns. In the second half they were fearless. That's going to be important if they wanna pull out the series.

[Elraptor]

Ah hey guess what, Spurs won - deal with it.

Manu is still hurt on his groin. That last 3 was as flat as the ocean.

The people over at azsportsfan are assuming the Spurs played their best on Sat. and will not make any adjustments LOL

G Hill reinjured his groin also.

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

If Manu plays like he did in the 2nd half...............an entire game



Spurs in 4

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

I can't count the number of coaches, players, commentators, etc. from every sport who have said that good luck (or bad luck) is a matter of opportunity meeting a prepared (or unprepared) team. It's one of those sports cliches that rings true in every walk of life. Finley's three is one that he's hit plenty of times in his life. It wasn't some off balance one handed heave, it's a shot that he's been taking his entire career, and he's been on a hot streak as of late.

And while Duncan is never going to win any three point contests, he's got good form on his jumper from 18 feet. If you've got a good shooting stroke the biggest difference between shooting from 18 feet and the three point line is a matter of confidence. Nor was it luck that Tim was wide open. It was a result of the fact that Manu had been lighting the Suns up in the paint and they weren't about to let him get another easy look.

Bottom line, if the Spurs had lost it wouldn't have been a matter of bad luck, and I think it's a senseless argument that they lost because of it.

[florige]

So what Phx played bad? Give me a break! At one point it seemed like Amare and Nash were pretty much scoring the ball at will.

[duncan228]

We had Tim hit his first 3 this season, and maybe of his life.

Duncan is 24-126 in 3's in the regular season, 4-24 in the Playoffs, including yesterday's.

Since he's already changed allegiance to Dallas, he'll probably be a Hornets fan by this summer.

Ok guys if the Spurs win game 2 tomorrow, just remember do not celebrate it or be happy about it. Can't becasue the other teams' fans say so.

Amare averaged 40 or so a game a few years back and Suns still lost in 5. I am not worried as he gives up as much on other side if not more with his lame defensive play.

Probably not.

On the other hand, once the Spurs adjusted to the Suns, they outscored them by 18 points over the final 40 minutes of the game. Food for thought.

6. Shaq bulldozing over "floppers".

I can't wait to see what's the next sad story or excuse that Suns' fan has. :lol

D'Antoni is on the take?

Finley's three did not actually go through the rim. It only appeared to do so, and despite the video evidence and preponderance of witnesses, the Spurs actually rigged the rim so the shot would go in.

The velocity and arc of Duncan's shot was not sufficient to go through. Same as above.

Popovich and the Spurs' coaching staff were wearing all their rings, and the glare messed with the Sons' vision.

[Don Quixote]

And Isiah just got fired! Now you KNOW he had to have something to do with it!

Seriously. Isiah totally knows all about Stern's plot to keep the Spurs on top. That's why he's being paid off to keep quiet.

It's all related ...
