Spurs @ Hornets Game 1 Blog

[lefty]

Game 1........GAME, SET, AND MATCH!


Chris Paul is THE best point guard in the NBA.

Yor trolling will be over as soon as we move to the WCF

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

No it woudln't. There is no space in there. Thats why they've had so many open 3s. They either hit the 3s or they get nothing.


This is what happens when Duncan lays an egg. Really disappointed in him this game.

Dude, I SAW the space. Run a cutter from the high post straight down the middle of the key and you'll get a layup - simple dump over the top from Tim. I SAW IT OPEN UP about 8 times on doubles.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

They just showed the replay of Paul in transition and the 'foul call', and no Spur even touched him. He just missed. :lol

[sting]

The rout is on.

[Budkin]

We're going to lose by 20+

[BiZNicK]

this is pathetic

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

can we trade some of our "fans" for you?


:lol Sorry but my blood runs blue, yellow and white........even if it does cause heartaches, headaches and much yelling :lol

[Capt Bringdown]

When Duncan does that body language thing of his, it's hard not to be harsh.

Nobody's perfect...but that fucking slumped shoulders, hurt look...

don't care for it myself.

[Red Hawk #21]

Yo fuck the Hornets and fuck their annoying fans, and fuck the P.A announcers that keep saying "whoooo" after everything. And fuck that underrated flopper Chris paul, I just don't like these guys. Go spurs Go.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Barry and Udoka finally get in with a minute left. Well, better late than never, I guess.

[HFFL]

And the Grape Kool-Aid drinking begins!

[sting]

this is pathetic

No, this is a ASS WHIPPING

[Teal Street]

spurs are getting embarrassed now, just like two of the other times they played the hornets this season.

Regular season doesnt count though. Spurs are a different team right?

[lefty]

The rout is on.

We'll think about you when we'll win these series

[kingsfan]

Damn CP is incredible, has he been doing this all game?

[SAGambler]

Well, guess Pop will have a reason to chew ass after this one.

[peskypesky]

Why do we have pricks who don't allow any criticism of the team or anything? And since win does being frustrated about a loss mean fans are giving up on the team? You people live in a fucking Spurs world where you're all just circle jerking to the Spurs. They sucked ass this game, they are playing weak, they just suck tonight. So I guess that means I'm giving up because I said that, right?

Go back and read your own posts, you spineless fake fan.

[m33p0]

what a frustrating game to watch.
good job by the SPURS to take duncan out of the game. :flipoff

[DubMcDub]

Regular season doesnt count though. Spurs are a different team right?

Showing up here and running your mouth after Game 1 is pathetic.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Anyway, game 1 they HAD TO WIN. We'd better make some clever adjustments in game 2.

NO are definitely our toughest matchup in the NBA. I said that before the playoffs and everyone told me I was crazy. Tonight is the proof.

[SpursFanATL]

Glad to see Paul is still in there to close out a 19 point win. That little fucker is going to learn his lesson the hard way in this series.

[sting]

So much for EXPERENCE

[jmard5]

Everything went wrong for the Spurs this second half.

[td4mvp21]

When was the last time the Spurs got blown out in Game 1 of a playoff series?

[lefty]

Regular season doesnt count though. Spurs are a different team right?

You understand !

So you know we'll win the series]

You are not a troll !:toast

[boutons_]

well, well, well, when the Spurs are bad, they are VERY BAD

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Tim Duncan:

1-9 FG
3-6 FT

5 points, 3 rebounds.

What a fucking wuss.

[dbreiden83080]

We're going to lose by 20+

They stopped playing when they got down by 8. We were up till about 8 min of the third and then we went into full on suck mode.

[TDfan2007]

Some of you Spurs fans are such fucking spoiled little bitches. Calling Duncan "soft" and shit. Dude is one of the least "soft" players in the NBA. Shut the fuck up.

He's not soft. He's just not mentally in it right now. He's playing like an idiot. THose are the same hooks he makes all the time. That's his game, but his handling of the double-team has been awful.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

No, this is a ASS WHIPPING

lol you feeling to good about yourself? im sure you are scared as hell.

[m33p0]

suck it all up, hornets fans. enjoy it while it lasts.

[duncan228]

Spurs do well when they lose the first game in a series. :)

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Well, guess Pop will have a reason to chew ass after this one.

Someone needs to chew Pop's ass too.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

The first half, the Spurs got too happy with hitting all those 3's

They hit a FRANCHISE RECORD 9 3 balls.....and yet were ONLY up 4

That should've been the story of what to expect in the second half.

[Don Quixote]

Embarrassing. The Hornets have our number.

This is going to be a short series unless we return to Spurs defense.

[lefty]

So much for EXPERENCE

Damn trolls are dumb

[peskypesky]

We lost one game and all the Chicken Littles are running around squawking like scared hens.

:flag:

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

No, this is a ASS WHIPPING

This is a game you HAD TO WIN. Did it in style. Enjoy.

Game 2 will be a different story.

[Admidave50]

Duncan must have had his worst game of his carrer tonight!

[carina_gino20]

Tim Duncan disappointed his teammates tonight. You don't play like this in the second round of the playoffs. Not when everything the team does hinges on you. Now go get that Game 2.

[Bulwark]

So much for EXPERENCE
So much for SPELLING

[WildcardManu]

this was a moral victory guys, come on :lol nah fuck this
Spurs don't forget

[td4mvp21]

Go back and read your own posts, you spineless fake fan.

:dramaquee

[Quiet Strength]

So much for EXPERENCE

Experience will win the series for the spurs. They have lost a game 1 before.. this loss will only make them stronger.

[DudleyDawson]

DUNCAN/Manu sucked ass tonight. Pick it up boys

[dbreiden83080]

Tim Duncan:

1-9 FG
3-6 FT

5 points, 3 rebounds.

What a fucking wuss.

But a big problem is the way they are guarding him with the double teams he is not going to get a lot of shots up in the series, Hornets are not going to allow it. He was BAD tonight, but the way they are checking him is a major problem.

[DubMcDub]

The first half, the Spurs got too happy with hitting all those 3's

They hit a FRANCHISE RECORD 9 3 balls.....and yet were ONLY up 4

That should've been the story of what to expect in the second half.

Don't even worry about it bro. Spurs will probably win this thing in 6.

Still and all, your brethren calling out TD for being "soft" are coming off as spoiled little brats right now.

[rasho8]

We went into pathetic mode in the third... again.

WTF.... letting the Hornets win when we are up by 11 is kind of sad.

I look forward to a nice ass chewing by Pop and a turnaround next game.

[spyder]

DUNCAN PLAYED LIKE A LITTLE BITCH!! FUCK:bang:bang

[MajicMan]

some Spurs fans suck ass. boo hoo they lost one away game. is that a surprise?

[SpurOutofTownFan]

this is going to be a shock for some people but im with pop on this one - he just didnt' want to make adjustments when his main player is playing like a fucking pussy.. low shoulders, rat-in-laboratory expression, lost-dog-poor-me face, etc. No adjustments for you Tim tonight, you are going to have to play your ass.

What you do reflects on your teammates - you are the man here.

[Budkin]

That had to be one of the worst Spurs playoff games ever.

[bdictjames]

This reminds me of the Denver game

The Spurs need a little motivation.

[cjjr72984]

One of the nicest guys in the NBA is a punk huh......yea ok. Everything he has done for this city on and off court is unbelievable.

Anyways, good win by the Hornets. I wonder if people still believe David West shouldn't have gotten the All-star nod.


Spurs fans.....we tried to tell ya this was gonna be a long series. This Hornets team is forreal.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

The first half, the Spurs got too happy with hitting all those 3's

They hit a FRANCHISE RECORD 9 3 balls.....and yet were ONLY up 4

That should've been the story of what to expect in the second half.

I called it. I said "we need to find another way to score because we will inevitably go cold from 3" and that's what happened, only we didn't find any other ways to score... :oops

Game 2 will be a different story.

This will be a 7-game series.

[Budkin]

Regular season doesnt count though. Spurs are a different team right?

Start talking shit when you win 4 of 7 asshole.

[peskypesky]

I guess no-one here watched the Nuggets series last year. Or the Pistons-76ers series last week. Or etc etc etc

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

But a big problem is the way they are guarding him with the double teams he is not going to get a lot of shots up in the series, Hornets are not going to allow it. He was BAD tonight, but the way they are checking him is a major problem.

He missed 7 shots inside of five feet. We lost by 19.

There's part of your equation.

And I don't give a damn about how they were guarding him, what in the hell does that have to do with him pulling down three more rebounds than me tonight?

[ChumpDumper]

some Spurs fans suck ass. boo hoo they lost one away game. is that a surprise?
Not really. It was such a weird one anyway I can't get too angry about it.

[pooh]

Fantastic win by the Hornets...put them in their place. Good work, one down...three to go.

[mVp]

Who was wearing #21 tonight for the Spurs?? and WTF did he do with Duncan?!?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Don't even worry about it bro. Spurs will probably win this thing in 6.

Still and all, your brethren calling out TD for being "soft" are coming off as spoiled little brats right now.

:lol


kinda sad when a Mavs fan has to stick up for TD!


I am sure he'll come back strong in game 2

[Capt Bringdown]

The first half, the Spurs got too happy with hitting all those 3's

They hit a FRANCHISE RECORD 9 3 balls.....and yet were ONLY up 4

That should've been the story of what to expect in the second half.

That's the story right there.

Hornets will sweep this series if we continue on this path.

[sting]

Hey only reason I was talking shit is because of all the 4-0 sweep shit you guys were talking. I know this will be a tough series. Just having a little fun.

[Don Quixote]

Well, that sucked.

The series is far from over, but DANG.

[Admidave50]

Spurs could have easily won the game if Duncan had at least a 15+pt 10 rb game!

Tony and Manu had their numbers, role players scored

[MONTENEGRINO]

So, you HAD solid Manu and solid Tony... That's the proof that TIM DUNCAN IS SOUL OF THE SPURS TEAM. If you have no Duncan, you have no win! Simple as that.
Thanks_

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Experience will win the series for the spurs. They have lost a game 1 before.. this loss will only make them stronger.

Experience is overrated.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I guess no-one here watched the Nuggets series last year. Or the Pistons-76ers series last week. Or etc etc etc

Hornets >>>>>> Nuggets + Sixers


However, all SA needs to do is get the split.


If we go down 0-2 THEN I'll be really concerned

[SpurAddict561]

I guess Amused is 11-1 when making the game thread now...

fuck, there goes our secret weapon.

[ducks]

Fantastic win by the Hornets...put them in their place. Good work, one down...three to go.

nice that you jump one the banwagon team of the hornets now that they are good

[peskypesky]

That had to be one of the worst Spurs playoff games ever.

you're what, 10 years old?

[DespЏrado]

Spurs got this thing in 5. I'm calling it now. The spurs played like crap the last three games and they are going to lose when they do that. But make no mistake the Spurs beat themselves tonight. Duncan didn't show up, and the guy deserves to be called out for that.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

lots of things happened today including that 20 minute break when the spurs were rolling, even Scott said that might be beneficial to them and it was - manu wasn't the same when he came back. It was just a lot of things going the hornets way - the spurs played like crap period. They'll win the next 4.

[WildcardManu]

Spurs don't forget, let go, let them have this one, now all the focus is on game 2

[SpursDynasty]

I know NOH won by almost 20...but I'm just not convinced. It's always because of the Spurs' poor play rather than NOH playing well...Chris Paul was near non-existent. Wasn't he supposed to kill us?

David West is not gonna be hitting outside shots like that every game.

Spurs in 6.

[Quiet Strength]

Experience is overrated.

Why do you think so?

[peskypesky]

This series is over... book it1

oh, ok.

[Budkin]

Goddamn that game put me in a shitty mood.... FUCK!

[spurastic]

Don't even worry about it bro. Spurs will probably win this thing in 6.

Still and all, your brethren calling out TD for being "soft" are coming off as spoiled little brats right now.

Thought I would never agree with a mavs fan. But.....

TD is the Man.

[td4mvp21]

A split would be very nice. If we go down 0-2 then I think we lose the series. But if we get the split I think we'll win it.

[Capt Bringdown]

Kobe must be loving his chances of a ring this year.

[Borosai]

Disappointing performance in many ways, especially with the hustle; they were lazy going after rebounds and loose balls. I'm sure they'll do much better in game 2.

And yeah, it's hard to like Chris Paul with his attitude out there.

[SpurAddict561]

Hey only reason I was talking shit is because of all the 4-0 sweep shit you guys were talking. I know this will be a tough series. Just having a little fun.

whoever said it was a sweep is a fuckin idiot..don't mind them

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We went into pathetic mode in the third... again.

WTF.... letting the Hornets win when we are up by 11 is kind of sad.

I look forward to a nice ass chewing by Pop and a turnaround next game.

Yup, that's been a pattern against the Hornets this year. All the losses came from 3rd Q meltdowns.

BTW, love your Kiszla-douche sig. :lol

[WildcardManu]

Don't sleep on Timmy, one bad game motivates him to come back strong the next. This game is over, done with, past, we got the L now time to adjust to game 2.

[lefty]

Hey only reason I was talking shit is because of all the 4-0 sweep shit you guys were talking. I know this will be a tough series. Just having a little fun.

We never said it would be a sweep

It's not like you were the Nuggets

[carina_gino20]

228, are you gonna call out TD now? :p:

[davemaniscool]

I agree with Kenny. Tim needs to d up on West

[Red Hawk #21]

One of the nicest guys in the NBA is a punk huh......yea ok. Everything he has done for this city on and off court is unbelievable.

Anyways, good win by the Hornets. I wonder if people still believe David West shouldn't have gotten the All-star nod.


Spurs fans.....we tried to tell ya this was gonna be a long series. This Hornets team is forreal.

Yo fuck Chris Paul, hes a bitch and a punk. I hope the Spurs comeback and whoop that ass. Fuck the Hornets

[Budkin]

you're what, 10 years old?

:lmao 32. I meant in the Tim Duncan era. I should have been more specific but I was too pissed.

[lefty]

Disappointing performance in many ways, especially with the hustle; they were lazy going after rebounds and loose balls. I'm sure they'll do much better in game 2.

And yeah, it's hard to like Chris Paul with his attitude out there.

Can't wait to see his face after we win the series

[cjjr72984]

I know NOH won by almost 20...but I'm just not convinced. It's always because of the Spurs' poor play rather than NOH playing well...Chris Paul was near non-existent. Wasn't he supposed to kill us?

David West is not gonna be hitting outside shots like that every game.

Spurs in 6.

You are kidding me right??!!!

David West has been hitting shots like that ALL YEAR! Nobody could guard him. And like Kenny Smith is pointing out right now, it's inevitable that Pop will put Duncan on him.

And uh yea.....Chris Paul's 13 assists is what killed yall.

[td4mvp21]

glad to see you have faith in this team:sleep

Do you think we can beat the Hornets 4 out of 5 times?

[peskypesky]

I ain't worried. At all. We win Game 2, take home-court advantage, then win in 5 or 6.

[sting]

We never said it would be a sweep

It's not like you were the Nuggets

Trust me, there were guys on here saying Sweep.

[td4mvp21]

You are kidding me right??!!!

David West has been hitting shots like that ALL YEAR! Nobody could guard him. And like Kenny Smith is pointing out right now, it's inevitable that Pop will put Duncan on him.

Just a word of advice, do not listen nor take seriously ANYTHING SpursDynasty says.

[Shaolin-Style]

Am's streak is over.

Time for someone new to step up :P

[ludda]

You know Hornet trolls are new when they start responding to SpursDynasty :lol

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Here's what pisses me off: New Orleans was mugging the shit out of SA, including Bonzi's flagrant on Paul.

But we didn't respond in kind. We should have put Paul or West on the fucking deck after that shit.

[WildcardManu]

This game NO was the aggressor and we just didn't answer back.

[Ice009]

Spurs got to stop giving up. The Hornets go on runs and the Spurs play like crap. Gotta stop that shit now!

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Why do you think so?

It helps, but it's not as much of a factor as most fans/pundits would lead you to believe.

[peskypesky]

glad to see you have faith in this team:sleep

td4mvp21 is a troll.

[still.focused]

Yep the almost nightly 3rd quarter of doom reared its ugly unwanted head again
I got an idea NO MORE HALFTIME!!!
Just let em sit on the bench for the 15 minutes and do Sudoku or sumn

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Hey only reason I was talking shit is because of all the 4-0 sweep shit you guys were talking. I know this will be a tough series. Just having a little fun.

Who's the idiot who said this would be a sweep???

This was always going to be a 6/7 game series.

You guys are our toughest matchup in the league.

Congrats on the win. See you in game 2.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

dude, it's not the end of the world - the hornets are wining at home, needed to get this one. period. duncan needs to stop whining and come back with fire in his ass in game 2.

and the NO organization has to stop making stupid stunts.

[cjjr72984]

Just a word of advice, do not listen nor take seriously ANYTHING SpursDynasty says.

Oh ok, lol. I was about to catch a heart attack on some of the statements he was making.

[WildcardManu]

Yo fuck Chris Paul, hes a bitch and a punk. I hope the Spurs comeback and whoop that ass. Fuck the Hornets

Man i'm rooting for the Hawks on Sunday, been watching you guys play the Celts straight up and that zaza-kg face to face time was awesome :lol

[ChumpDumper]

Here's what pisses me off: New Orleans was mugging the shit out of SA, including Bonzi's flagrant on Paul.

But we didn't respond in kind. We should have put Paul or West on the fucking deck after that shit.Didn't you see Bruce's hard shin foul on Paul's foot?

That was brutal.

[sting]

The Hornets have been doing those stunts for years, this is the first mishap.

[MannyIsGod]

Dude, I SAW the space. Run a cutter from the high post straight down the middle of the key and you'll get a layup - simple dump over the top from Tim. I SAW IT OPEN UP about 8 times on doubles.

lol @ you thinking bowen or finely with the ball in the lane is better than them shooting stand still jumpers.

No.

[peskypesky]

The Spurs are an old team with hopes of going back to back. They beat down an old broke down Suns team and decieved people into believeing they had something left.

An old man may want to go twelve rounds with a young girl, but when the fuccing starts... he's done in two!!!:lmao

oh, ok. (yawns)

[SAGambler]

You are kidding me right??!!!

David West has been hitting shots like that ALL YEAR! Nobody could guard him. And like Kenny Smith is pointing out right now, it's inevitable that Pop will put Duncan on him.

And uh yea.....Chris Paul's 13 assists is what killed yall.

More like the second and third and fourth possessions being allowed. Duncan I think only had 3 rebounds all night. Unfuckinreal.

[duncan228]

228, are you gonna call out TD now? :p:

No, I'm not. He will do it himself. No one is harder on Duncan when he has a bad game than Duncan. He'll work through it, he'll be ready for game 2.

He had a bad game. It happens.

This team only goes as far as Duncan takes them. He knows that. He'll make the adjustments. This series is far from over.

[ElNono]

I was surprised we were into the game for as long as we were with Timmy having such off night. After watching this game, I actually feel pretty good about the Spurs chances. I know Timmy will be back for the rest of the series, and our defense can only improve from here on out.

[td4mvp21]

td4mvp21 is a troll.

:lmao

Ok.

So, I'm a fucking troll because I say what I think? I'm a fucking troll because I do not think the Spurs could come back to win the series after being down 2-0? That doesn't mean I'm not going to cheer for them. I still will. But goddamn, you guys scoff at the notion that the Spurs may not win this series. I'm sick of this bullshit about how if you criticize your team or don't think they can win that you're a troll or a bandwagoner. Jesus Christ.

[Borosai]

Like I said, the Spurs were lazy, especially on the defensive boards. Duncan missed point-blank shots. The team missed too many free throws. Untimely turnovers by Manu in the 3rd that helped that run by the Hornets. It was one of those nights.

[cjjr72984]

More like the second and third and fourth possessions being allowed. Duncan I think only had 3 rebounds all night. Unfuckinreal.

Yea i can't even lie....the hornets offensive rebounds were inexcusable if I'm a spurs fan.

What I think is intriguing is: The Hornets have the 2nd best road record in the NBA so there's no guarantee that the Spurs will automatically win both games at home.

[peskypesky]

:lmao

Ok.

So, I'm a fucking troll because I say what I think? I'm a fucking troll because I do not think the Spurs could come back to win the series after being down 2-0?

well, when your statements are the same as trolls' statements, why should you not be regarded as one? the lakers trolls are already calling this series over in the hornets favor because of this loss, and you are doing the same, so what's the difference between you and them? Allah Akbar.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

lol @ you thinking bowen or finely with the ball in the lane is better than them shooting stand still jumpers.

No.

So put Barry in for Finley, or run Parker or Manu down the middle with the other big setting a weak elbow rub. Shit, do SOMETHING!

What I object to is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. Even after it was clear that Tim was bothered by the doubles (when was the last time he was doubled all game? It's been a while), we kept going 4-down... why? Why not move him to the high post, or PNR? When you shoot 9/14 from 3, it is inevitable that you'll end up around 40-50% if you keep shooting it, and that's what happened.

Anyway, we need major adjustments at both ends in game 2. Be interesting to see what Pop does.

[Budkin]

Hugo went through a burning ring of fire.
We went down down down and the Hornets went higher.
And it burns burns burns...
the ring of fire...
Lost our desire...

No, I'm not. He will do it himself. No one is harder on Duncan when he has a bad game than Duncan. He'll work through it, he'll be ready for game 2.

He had a bad game. It happens.

This team only goes as far as Duncan takes them. He knows that. He'll make the adjustments. This series is far from over.

TD will usually get a pass from people if it were the regular season. It's just that it's hard watching him play like this in the playoffs, when every game matters.

We're not going anywhere without TD. I think he let the non-calls early in the game get to his head. He's best when he just ignores them and makes them pay with his play.

:flag:

[peskypesky]

What does Allah have to do with the Spurs getting their butts whooped???

Buddha.

[td4mvp21]

Show me a post where I said the series is over. I didn't. I said the game was over (because it was). I said if the Spurs go down 2-0 I don't think they can come back and win it. I'm going to cheer for the Spurs until they get knocked out but I'm not going to live in a fantasy world where the Spurs can win every series, every year. You guys seem to forget that the Spurs are human and can't always be the best team in the league. Hopefully this year they still are.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

You're not a troll, but you do say troll-like things, and your posting is bi-polar.

This is shit, that is shit, everything is shit, then they go on a run and you're all over it. I mean, you gave up at about the 10 minute mark of game 5 vs Suns (and you've done it many times before).

Calm down a bit and maybe peskypesky and others won't get all over you. If you analysed what's going wrong rather than just accusing the team of "giving up" or calling them "shit", I'd certainly appreciate it.

[Teal Street]

That's what they're about to find out.

Scott has lost to us before. So, he better prepare them for the difference.


Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili, Bruce Bowen, + ...

In a best of 7 series.

Parker and Bowen will slow CP3 down.

Look at what the Spurs (esp Bowen and Tim) did against LeBron.


Wow. I have serious questions whether this will be competitive.

:nope

Hopefully your questions have been answered. Have a good night everyone and see you on Monday.:sleep

This is shit, that is shit, everything is shit, then they go on a run and you're all over it. I mean, you gave up at about the 10 minute mark of game 5 vs Suns (and you've done it many times before).

Calm down a bit and maybe peskypesky and others won't get all over you. If you analysed what's going wrong rather than just accusing the team of "giving up" or calling them "shit", I'd certainly appreciate it.

OMG this shit was precious. My precious. :toast

No one gives a shit what you think.

Show me a post where I said the series is over. I didn't. I said the game was over (because it was). I said if the Spurs go down 2-0 I don't think they can come back and win it. I'm going to cheer for the Spurs until they get knocked out but I'm not going to live in a fantasy world where the Spurs can win every series, every year. You guys seem to forget that the Spurs are human and can't always be the best team in the league. Hopefully this year they still are.

You have a funny way of cheering. You only do it when your team is winning.

This dude is shitting his pants about the thought of playing the Spurs in the WCF. Good luck with Utah now.

[ChumpDumper]

I already have $100 on this series... any more takers.No one has ever collected on a cash bet made on an internets message board.

Ever.

Christ, is Ginobili's nose getting bigger? Did he break it this year?

[Drz]

Are you talking straight up, 1 to 1 odds? If you are and we can find a reasonable way to make the money work, I'm willing to put down up to $5K.

[FeeltheSting]

Hornets in 6 almost the only thing I came to say you see me again but only before gt and I be going.

[loveforthegame]

Duncan was a no show but I have faith he'll bounce back like he always does. Ginobli's line looks good but he forced shots and had some really stupid passes. Parker was solid, Thomas did a good job on West, and Finley was the only role player to show up.

[am4titansandlsu]

i have a headache of listening to the fans booing, I have to make an extra effort to watch the game, they need another katrina (sorry if I piss somebody off but this is outrageous)


too bad we won texas, or else mexico would have your heartless pathetic ass

[boutons_]

Hustleless Spurs zombied through a swing of +11 to -19 to a team that embarrassed them twice in the season.

Somebody tell the Spurs season's over, the playoffs have started.

The last time the Spurs got beat this bad was both Games3,4 in 05 vs Pistons, but they took a comfortable 2-0 lead up there.

When was the last time the Duncan Spurs were down 0-2 in the playoffs?

[tchopotulis]

Wow, I expected wayy more of a challenge from the CHAMPS.Spurs got spanked by DWEST. What's all this crying about the refs cheating....look at all the boards we got. If it wasnt for those 3pt ginoboli and bowen made, we would have won by 30+ easy. No effort by Duncan whatsoever. Hornets will sweep the Spurs because the hornets or way to athletic for the boring ass Spurs. WOOOO im pumped.

[still.focused]

The game in a nut shell
Spurs get out rebounded by a total of 16
And give up 16 offensive boards

[ballhog]

Yeah, Spurs w/ no effort last night. Sleepwalking. Flat-footed on rebounds all night.

[cjjr72984]

Some of yall Spurs have less class than the opposing team's fans yall talk against.

[SpursDynasty]

The delay of game cost the Spurs the game. I'm not surprised NO would pull something like that to hurt an opposing team.

:lmao

If so, why did the Spurs extend their lead after the delay?

[Nolazach]

The officiating totally changed this game, sad to say. The Spurs can't play defense because they keep getting called for fouls, while New Orleans is allowed to hack the fuck out of us.

Really???

The whole first half was calls going your way. BS fouls at that.

It goes both ways, but in the end the team that loses is the one that blames it on the refs.

Thomas did a good job on West? What game were you watching? West had 30pts, 9 rebs, 2 steals, 3 assists and 1 block. I'd say Thomws had a terrible time guarding West, and to be honest, no Spur can gurd him.

[SPARKY]

Damn, you are one stupid motherfucker.
