Spurs @ Lakers Game 2 - Game Blog

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Son of a bitch. Gasol has two fouls. Go at him Tim

[MoSpur]

Just like that TD

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes TD

FUCK FINley stop with that shit

[lefty]

Dunan waking the fuck up

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Dumb play by Parker.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

C'mon Tim, attack the rim.

We're so tentative.

[pawe]

fucking old ass finley

[Deb]

Could someone tell TP he needs to protect the ball? He really sucks right now

[lefty]

Parker fuck yoyu!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu just isn't right. He can't move laterally at all.

[E20]

Nice Parker.

[MoSpur]

The Spurs interior D is disgusting

[Anti.Hero]

Manu just isn't right. He can't move laterally at all.

[lefty]

Parker stop passing

Keep going to the rim

[1Parker1]

Kobe is playing like he knows he can get any shot he wants.

[pawe]

damn ref, call a fucking foul!!!

[E20]

Nice Duncan.

[Slippy]

What's with Finley shooting MJ fade-aways. Tony is the only one attacking the rim.

[lefty]

Bankeeeeeeeeer

[MoSpur]

TP needs to keep taking it to the hole

[Spurs Brazil]

TD bank!!!!!!!!1

[Emanuel20]

Manu just isn't right. He can't move laterally at all.

Limit his minutes.

[duncan228]

Duncan keeping it close.

[E20]

Now I just need Manu to make a basket and I can say: Nice Ginobili

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Manu's ankle must be fucked, because he's got nothing out there. He just got crossed over by Luke freakin Walton!

Has to be TP/TD and the bench tonight.

[MoSpur]

TNT and Doug Collins are on Kobe's payroll.

[dbreiden83080]

TD came to Play, Tony getting going

MANU???????? :bang:bang

[ATXSPUR]

Anyone else think we might have been better off letting manu get four days off before game 3?

[pawe]

surprisingly only down by 2. Never let up on D and the offense will follow.

[Capt Bringdown]

I'm happy that we're still this close.
But one Laker run and we'll be in a deep hole.

[dbreiden83080]

Manu's ankle must be fucked, because he's got nothing out there.

He never looked this bad in the NO series, he was not himself but not this bad

[1Parker1]

Spurs can't keep this game close with the way Kobe is making shots tonight. They need to find a way to either stop him or the rest of the team, and take a cushioned lead.

When Kobe is this hot, u don't want a close game in the 4th :pctoss

[Deb]

Like where we are right now, even if we are playing like shit. Gives us room to come to life in the second half without being really behind.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

http://www.youtube.com/v/22hSsrFzmIg&hl=en"

:depressed

[timmydidit]

TNT and Doug Collins are on Kobe's payroll.

haha +1

[Emanuel20]

Anyone else think we might have been better off letting manu get four days off before game 3?

That's sounds about correct.

[PumpUpTheJam]

Kobe in, Bowen out WTF Pop?

He's lost it. Pop's just throwing random people into the game now.


Maybe it'll work? ..:rolleyes

[awktalk]

Is there a chatroom setup for this game?

[pbandjnocrust]

I'm happy that we're still this close.
But one Laker run and we'll be in a deep hole.

+1

[dbreiden83080]

Anyone else think we might have been better off letting manu get four days off before game 3?

I don't think 4 days was going to matter

[MannyIsGod]

What's with Finley shooting MJ fade-aways. Tony is the only one attacking the rim.

Uh, have you not been watching Tim?

[dbreiden83080]

Is there a chatroom setup for this game?

Should be

[1Parker1]

He never looked this bad in the NO series, he was not himself but not this bad

What's worse is that Sasha Vuijic is now in his head. I can understand he's tentative, injured, etc, but there are other ways to contribute. His passing is normally great and he could be setting up others for easy baskets, he could also stop turning the ball over and settling for 3 pointers.

[MoSpur]

If Manu is hurting, sit him. Bring in Barry. Pop only gives Barry like 2 minutes and that isn't gonna work.

[Emanuel20]

Should Manu call it quits?

[E20]

Omg Omg Omgo Mogmo Gomgomgomgomggomg

They Showed Stallone Om Omg Omgomg Mgomg

[Whisky Dog]

A healthy Manu and this series is over in 5.

This is a daunting task. The Spurs have to win without a big cog, and if they do that just shows how much heart this team has.

[pawe]

why do they always have to show that clown?

[lefty]

Tie?

Unreal

[Spurs Brazil]

Td J!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bonesinaz]

TNT and Doug Collins are on Kobe's payroll.


Doug Collins has always been in love with the fakers. I know people here like him, but I think he takes himself way too seriously. I wish JVG was doing this series.

[Anti.Hero]

Do the Spurs do their fucking homework? Gasol gets most of his points offf that bullshit.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

At this point I'd say to sit Manu the rest of the game, give him until game 3 to try and get healthier. We aren't winning this series without some semblance of himself.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Omg Omg Omgo Mogmo Gomgomgomgomggomg

They Showed Stallone Om Omg Omgomg Mgomg

Have you got a boner now? :lmao

[MoSpur]

Bill Engvall is the 1st celebrity I've seen who looks like he actually enjoys being there

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

The Spurs are showing their age. Glad that the front office sat on their asses last summer.

[1Parker1]

There goes the tie. Up 4. Too easy for the Lakers to score when they need to.

Parker airballs a 3.

[Spurs3000]

What's worse is that Sasha Vuijic is now in his head. I can understand he's tentative, injured, etc, but there are other ways to contribute. His passing is normally great and he could be setting up others for easy baskets

What game have you been watching? Manu's passing today has been good. He's hit quite a few people right in rhythm for an open look, but they haven't been able to hit.

As for "easy baskets" - the Lakers are packing the paint precisely because we can't hit threes.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Tony Parker airballing his second three of the night. This is bullshit. You can't shoot it so quit trying you stupid fuck.

[lefty]

Parker fuck !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Deb]

Can someone tell TP that this is The WC Finals?

[Radiosparks]

Here is that run.

[noles1983]

way to close out the half spurs........fuck this bs

[Slippy]

Uh, have you not been watching Tim?


uh yes. Passing out too much.

[Emanuel20]

Sasha is eating Manu's lunch

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

9-0 run. Awesome.

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK Oberto

[Deb]

This is suckin

[1Parker1]

HOLY SHIT. This is disgusting. I don't even want to call myself a Spurs fan watching this crap.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I'm sure Parker will fuck up this last possession too.

[resistanze]

Embarrassing.

[Anti.Hero]

The Spurs look gassed.

They will not win this series.

[MoSpur]

Unbelievable. We just tied and the Lakers go on a 9-0 run

[Capt Bringdown]

Game Over

[pawe]

tanginang tong mga spurs na to! bwisit!!!

[lefty]

We'll have to win 2 in SA now

We can do it !

[Deb]

Who is going to show in the second half?

[Spurs Brazil]

Vujavic is KILLING Manu

Sad

[Admidave50]

Fuck it, we got blasted in 1:30 min

[MannyIsGod]

What a shit end to the half.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I can't figure out which is worse - the stupid decision making by the Spurs or the TNT Laker fellatio.

[Borosai]

No offense. No defense. These guys have no fucking clue what they're doing out there.

[Sigz]

Wow, we look like shit.

[milkyway21]

I wish Manu can help us in the 2nd half :cry

[1Parker1]

Phil Jackson owns Pop

Sasha Vuijic owns Ginobili

[ATXSPUR]

Oh well. good luck pistons. maybe they can make sure the good axis powers don't win it this year.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

What fucking shit to end the half.

Manu has to sit. He's getting lit up and contributing nothing.

[Deb]

Good job Duncan

[Budkin]

We'll be alright in the second half... don't lose faith!

[Bob Lanier]

Vujacic's pull-up jumper completely turned this game around.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Watch Tim miss both.

[duncan228]

Is there a chatroom setup for this game?

Be sure to use www.spurstalk.com for the address to chat. The http doesn't always work.

[1Parker1]

I can't figure out which is worse - the stupid decision making by the Spurs or the TNT Laker fellatio.

Or the Spurs FT shooting and offense?

[spurscenter]

This Game Is Over, Spurs Lose Again, Mark It

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

No offense. No defense. These guys have no fucking clue what they're doing out there.

Phil >>>>>>>>>>> Pop.

[MoSpur]

I know its gonna sound weird, but the Spurs will come out in the second half w/a different attitude and kick butt in the last minutes of the third and most of the 4th to pull out the win

[noles1983]

lol we are gonna get swept if we keep playing like little bitches

[Emanuel20]

I wish Manu can help us in the 2nd half :cry

I would not bet on it!
Let's just hope he does not hurt us!

[IllegalAmigo]

Games not over yet.

Not 'till Kobe goes off.

Spurs don't look composed. Yeah, they're keeping it close, but with little composure.

Look for the Lakers to smell blood in the 3rd.

[timmydidit]

Foul

[Slippy]

At this point I'd say to sit Manu the rest of the game, give him until game 3 to try and get healthier. We aren't winning this series without some semblance of himself.

Yah i'v been thinking the same. As some-one else suggested maybe they should of rested him till game 3. In hindsight.:depressed

[lefty]

Wow....

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Tony Parker airballing his second three of the night. This is bullshit. You can't shoot it so quit trying you stupid fuck.

No, he can shoot it, but his shot is definitely off in general tonight.

[1Parker1]

Nice that they dont call the blatant foul by Kobe.

[Spurs Brazil]

Damn Td Damn Damn Damn

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Duncan misses both, gets the rebound, gets hacked, no call. And the ref just stares down Duncan when he yells at him. Nice touch by the zebra.

[Bob Lanier]

CHOKE!

Timmy's owning the boards but he's been awful on offense, really, other than what Tony creates for him.

[dbreiden83080]

Fuck TIm Come on

[lefty]

Games not over yet.

Not 'till Kobe goes off.

Spurs don't look composed. Yeah, they're keeping it close, but with little composure.

Look for the Lakers to smell blood in the 3rd.

They will :depressed

[Deb]

This is not the time to miss our FT

[Budkin]

Look if they can come back from 20 down then we can sure as hell come back from this.

[Critter]

wow

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

No, he can shoot it, but his shot is definitely off in general tonight.

But that's my point. His shot is off but he continues to shoot. It's fucking stupid.

[Capt Bringdown]

OMG

We just totally laid down and died.

No heart.

[Admidave50]

If Tim can't his his FTs and Manu is still hurt, this one will be impossible to win

[Anti.Hero]

Can they suck Kobe's dick any fucking more.

[Spurs Brazil]

With Manu playing like this we have no chance

[ATXSPUR]

This is fucking disgusting. The Spurs obviously don't want it. This is the 2001 WCF all over again. Book it!

[dbreiden83080]

Kobe can kiss my fucking ass he is such an arrogant obnoxious piece of shit

[pauls931]

lol, You expect the refs to call a foul on kobe? Kobe does not foul you, you foul Kobe!

[1Parker1]

God, Kobe doesn't even frickin sound worried in the halftime interview. Spurs have instilled no intimidation on this Lakers team. Unfrickin real.

[milkyway21]

game 1 loss was better than this show:D

[spurscenter]

ONE DAY OFF IN BETWEEN GAMES

This series is over Lakers in 5

[heymanooh1]

This is your sign: Full of piss and bravado on the outside, nervous as hell on the inside

:flag::flag::flag:You're right....the Spermacides should let Lakers get ahead by 20 tonight and let's see what the Suppositories can do for a comeback :lol

[bobbybob0]

ok now tim's shooting 60% at the FT line, he's already had his 4 misses now he' s going 6/6

Believe.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

somebody needs to teach Ime to dunk, he made the same mistake in game 5 against the hornets. HE needs to grab it with both hands and go strong.

[Spurs3000]

Look if they can come back from 20 down then we can sure as hell come back from this.

Don't bother. Half this board is desperately looking for a reason to give up on the Spurs.

Pretty damn sad. Just become Faker fans while you're at it.

[Radiosparks]

CHOKE!

Timmy's owning the boards but he's been awful on offense, really, other than what Tony creates for him.

Fail!

Go speak stupid somewhere else.

[JamStone]

Hack-a-Duncan?

[pawe]

THis team cant wait to go back to SA. As usual, their nuts shriveled up like the size of pebbles.

[Shelly]

My voodoo doll isn't doing doo doo :depressed

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

2-7 free throws
3-12 three pointers
7 turnovers
5 assists

Awesome. I'm looking forward to more shit lineups and running set plays for jump shots for people who can't shoot for shit in the second half and the ensuing blowout that will come of it.

Pop should just take off the rest of the series and let Bud coach the team, Phil's so far in Pop's head Pop can't even figure out what day of the week it is.

[Budkin]

Don't jump... the Spurs have too much pride to go down like chumps!

[Deb]

Hope Pop will do the ass chewin in the locker room, and we'll come out fired up. You'd think they would be a little embarressed?

[dbreiden83080]

Phil >>>>>>>>>>> Pop.

Oh this has nothing to do with POP come on, Pop can't make Manu get healthy or Tim to hit FT's

[Sigz]

We are so off on offense it's not even funny.....

[ATXSPUR]

Kobe can kiss my fucking ass he is such an arrogant obnoxious piece of shit

I'm not even mad at kobe. It's out teams job to shut him the fuck up!! They obviously don't care that they are getting ass raped so unfortunately we have to suffer all the laker cock sucking and kobe arrogance :bang

[lefty]

Pop, how many fingers do you see?

Stop drinking wine before games !!! :flipoff

http://i.usatoday.net/sports/_photos/2007/06/13/popx.jpg

[spurscenter]

spurs cant over come mental issues

[polandprzem]

That was a nice season

[mikekim]

I want Manu back

[lefty]

game 1 loss was better than this show:D

Sad.

But true

[awktalk]

Game Over

You're obviously an idiot.

Look, we didn't close out the half but 9 points is a 2-minute run from being tied. Readjust, come out strong in the first 3 minutes of the 3rd, and we're fine. On the road, all we need to do is keep it close until the final 5 minutes

[Deb]

You're right....the Spermacides should let Lakers get ahead by 20 tonight and let's see what the Suppositories can do for a comeback :lol

You been saving that but this is your sign:

IT AIN'T OVER UNTIL ITS OVER

:flag::flag::flag:

[Avitus1]

We need a spark in the second half. They will do it....

[magui86770]

They just looked tired to me. Their shots are way off more than one might expect. And with Manu hurt and the scheduling, I am losing my confidence....

[dbreiden83080]

God, Kobe doesn't even frickin sound worried in the halftime interview. Spurs have instilled no intimidation on this Lakers team. Unfrickin real.

Doe he ever sound worried, he has a fucking EGO bigger than Shaq's ASS.

[WildcardManu]

Believe

[Banzai]

Phil >>>>>>>>>>> Pop.

I have a question..the picture of manu in your sig..was that in 2005?

[mikekim]

Spurs still got this. If they get half of normal Manu back, we got it. If we get him back by next game, we'll still have this series.

It'd be nice if he came back tonight though.

[Capt Bringdown]

When the Lakers do knock us out, I don't want to see any fucking tears.

I don't see how this series is going to magically turn around.

One run from the Lakers to start the 3rd and this series is over.

[spurscenter]

They just looked tired to me. Their shots are way off more than one might expect. And with Manu hurt and the scheduling, I am losing my confidence....

well there is NO TIME off in between games, so this is over.

[timvp]

Comes down to if Manu is going to get abused on both ends of the court by Sasha f'ing Vujacic, the Spurs have no chance.

[pawe]

Doe he ever sound worried, he has a fucking EGO bigger than Shaq's ASS.

nothing is bigger than shaq's ass

[milkyway21]

check this out

the role players

2 pts 1 rbd
Horry 0 pt 2 rbds
Vaughn 2 pts 0 asst

so where's Thomas?

[ImmortalD24]

The Lakers came out with a purpose in the first half.. we need to keep up the defensive effort! Sasha is really owning Manu. :D

[Deb]

I have a question..the picture of manu in your sig..was that in 2005?

Who really gives a damn

[awktalk]

They just looked tired to me. Their shots are way off more than one might expect. And with Manu hurt and the scheduling, I am losing my confidence....

I'm so concerned about your confidence. Maybe you should become a Pistons fan. Here: www.gofuckyourself.com

[hsxvvd]

Fuck all your excuses. Spurs can't shoot.

[misterx91578]

come on guys lets play some basketball second half

[polandprzem]

2-7 free throws
3-12 three pointers
7 turnovers
5 assists

Awesome. I'm looking forward to more shit lineups and running set plays for jump shots for people who can't shoot for shit in the second half and the ensuing blowout that will come of it.

Pop should just take off the rest of the series and let Bud coach the team, Phil's so far in Pop's head Pop can't even figure out what day of the week it is.

Most of the set plays were cut off by LA

Only 4 down works quite good

And only Tim showed, Tony terrible - he is not playmaking at all

[kcplayboi26]

Hack-a-Duncan?



hahaha might as well

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Don't bother. Half this board is desperately looking for a reason to give up on the Spurs.

Pretty damn sad. Just become Faker fans while you're at it.

You're new here, so I'll clue you in. It's not that the people here are looking for a reason to give up on the Spurs.

Many of us just remember Pop crawling up into the fetal position against Phil in the playoffs before. We know the signs, and it's happening again.

Panicked substitution patterns that don't make any sense, over reliance on veteran role players in the face of adversity, not trusting his young but fearless role players (i.e. Ime), and stupid ass plays like putting Vaughn in the corner to shoot threes, set plays to run Bowen off a double screen for a jumper, etc.

This team is done. Pop is Phil's bitch, has been and is continuing to be.

[Emanuel20]

Spurs still got this. If they get half of normal Manu back, we got it. If we get him back by next game, we'll still have this series.

It'd be nice if he came back tonight though.

Where the hell is the pissed off Manu?
I mean this ginobili that we are waching is horrible and not even trying, go the DAMN basket?

[milkyway21]

check this out

the role players

Oberto 2 pts 1 rbd
Horry 0 pt 2 rbds
Vaughn 2 pts 0 asst

so where's Thomas?

[Slippy]

Funny how the Spurs talked about not settling for jumpers and doing more penetrating after their 4th quarter fade from game 1. It's been completely the same in this half.

[bdictjames]

check this out

the role players

Oberto 2 pts 1 rbd
Horry 0 pt 2 rbds
Vaughn 2 pts 0 asst

so where's Thomas?
I agree. Kurt should have played more minutes.

[Deb]

Spurs Fans - have hope

You know we are gonna come out firing after the half.

Believe

[SpurOutofTownFan]

this game doesnt really look very good right now - i wouldn't be surprised if the spurs lose by 20+ tonight. They can't hit a shot.

[dbreiden83080]

I want Manu back

He doesn't have it. Something happened to him between game 7 and now he has nothing out there. Any Laker fan that thinks it is their D that is doing this has never seen Manu play. He never plays like this in the playoffs, NEVER

[gameFACE]

This is frustrating to watch. I like it when the Spurs are down 1 or 2 at the half. But not by 9. That was a terrible end to the quarter.

[duncan228]

Believe

Always. No matter how ugly it gets.

[Banzai]

Who really gives a damn
I do.:toast

[pawe]

pound them on the inside with TD and KT since our shooters are non existent right now.

[Anti.Hero]

Is this how it is going to fucking end? Finally so close and the fucking Lakers come back into the picture like this?

God you are cruel.

[Allanon]

The Laker bench is playing well tonight. If the Spurs have a chance, their bench has to step up, they haven't given anything to the game yet.

[hsxvvd]

We need a real ol'school Spurs 3rd.

Not one of those 2008 fucked by the 4th quarters.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

The Lakers came out with a purpose in the first half.. we need to keep up the defensive effort! Sasha is really owning Manu. :D

manu is owning himself... he can do a better job with our without sasha on him. I don't think he feels confident right now.

[timvp]

Pop is Phil's bitch, has been and is continuing to be.I don't disagree if you want to say Phil > Pop, however if the two coaches changed teams Phil wouldn't be able to do anything if Sasha > Manu.

[Deb]

I do.:toast

Why, do you desire Manu:lol:lol

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Oh this has nothing to do with POP come on, Pop can't make Manu get healthy or Tim to hit FT's

You're right, I'm sure Manu wanted to be out on the court with Vaughn, Finley, Horry, and Oberto. I.e., four guys who can't shoot for shit that the Lakers had no qualms leaving wide open to double and triple team Manu.

That's purely on Ginobili :rolleyes

[E20]

Spurs will win.

[heymanooh1]

Fuck it, we got blasted in 1:30 minThat's nothing...the Spermacides better show up during the first 4 minutes of the 3rd quarter or they're gonna get torched like the last 5 minutes of game 1's 3rd quarter.

This team is done. Pop is Phil's bitch, has been and is continuing to be.

Your routine is very very tired. Every time the Spurs lose or are losing you blame it all on POP. Why don't you give the Spurs your resume and get to work you obviously think you can coach better than he can. :rolleyes

[Admidave50]

Comes down to if Manu is going to get abused on both ends of the court by Sasha f'ing Vujacic, the Spurs have no chance.

That's clearly a x-factor, now Vujacic >>> Manu

Not that Manu is not helping the team, now he's hurting our chances!

[ATXSPUR]

Spurs still got this. If they get half of normal Manu back, we got it. If we get him back by next game, we'll still have this series.

It'd be nice if he came back tonight though.

Normal Manu is NEVER coming back! Atleast not for the duration of this series!

Seriously...a root canal would be less painful than watching the Spurs right now :bang

[kcplayboi26]

HAHAHAHA Sasha shyttin on yall!!!!

[pawe]

down by 9 and the dreaded 3rd qtr coming up. Pray Spurs fans, I know they will come out and play better. Steal one in LA

[Emanuel20]

He doesn't have it. Something happened to him between game 7 and now he has nothing out there. Any Laker fan that thinks it is their D that is doing this has never seen Manu play. He never plays like this in the playoffs, NEVER

Well, he has played for 2 straight games. I wish him well but he does not deserve to be out there if he turns the ball over, travels, or plays no defense.
I mean Luke Walton crossed Manu and Ginobili looked like the worst defensive player in the nba.

[Borosai]

If this team is going to play like shit, then they deserve to be called out. The whole "if you criticize your not a fan" bullshit gets old. These guys are sucking it up out there, plain and simple.

[Harry Callahan]

Kobe is the MVP, so he can elbow Bowen in the jaw and hit Duncan across the arm and not get a foul. Jordan rules baby. Someone needs to put a knee into his thigh and mess him up good.

Ginobili is not even close to 100%. Not even close. SA is very ordinary and can't win this series if things don't change. Of course, the media will talk about the greatness of the Lakers even though an all league player is seriously hurt.

It pisses me off that we are not giving the annointed lakers our best shot, because our best shot is good enough to beat them.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

ONE DAY OFF IN BETWEEN GAMES

This series is over Lakers in 5

Just like the Hornets series? :rolleyes

GTFO, quitter.

[Killakobe81]

Look games are not won or lost inthe 1st half Game 1 proved that Im still nervous about this one Duncan is killing us AGAIN but this time Gasol is NOT responding Odom has benn BETTER but not good enough yet ...

[AstroCowboy]

Find a way.....

[dbreiden83080]

I don't disagree if you want to say Phil > Pop, however if the two coaches changed teams Phil wouldn't be able to do anything if Sasha > Manu.

BINGO

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Horry doesn't have it. Unless he's going to blow up Kobe on a pick, there's no reason for him to be in the game. Give Kurt Thomas some run, what can it hurt at this point? We aren't getting shit from Oberto and Horry (combined 2 points, 3 boards in 20 minutes).

[Deb]

:lol
That's nothing...the Spermacides better show up during the first 4 minutes of the 3rd quarter or they're gonna get torched like the last 5 minutes of game 1's 3rd quarter.
http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/5029/scorezx0.jpg

LOL Spermacides, at least you could make it more real by spelling it Spurmacides, but most Fakers Fans wouldn't comprehend:lol

[SouthernFried]

This is not about the LAKERS. They ain't playing worth shit. The Spurs just can't throw it in the ocean...little to do with defense. Everything to do with Spurs not being able to hit open shots.

Been that way all year tho. Lack of Offense...lack of offense...lack of offense.

[ATXSPUR]

Spurs will win.

I'd like a couple of shots of whatever you have had please.

[Harry Callahan]

HAHAHAHA Sasha shyttin on yall!!!!

How's the fishin' bitch.

[awktalk]

Anyone have a link to the chatroom setup for this game?

[Vinnie_Johnson]

I'm so concerned about your confidence. Maybe you should become a Pistons fan. Here: www.gofuckyourself.com

WTF is that supposed to mean.:ihit

[SouthernFried]

Barry should be in the game. Should get 20 minutes in the 2nd half.

He wont tho.

[dbreiden83080]

Chuck sucking on Lakers dicks hard right now

[Deb]

This is not about the LAKERS. They ain't playing worth shit. The Spurs just can't throw it in the ocean...little to do with defense. Everything to do with Spurs not being able to hit open shots.

Been that way all year tho. Lack of Offense...lack of offense...lack of offense.

Yep, no one is thinking the Lakers are one unbeatable, tough ass team, we're all just thinking the Spurs aren't stepping up and playing to their potential

:flag::flag::flag:

[ManuTastic]

Sit Manu for the rest of the game. In fact send him to the hot tub right now. He's worthless and will be until he gets better. This game is over. Why not give him some badly-needed rest?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Manu needs to sit in the second. He can't drive, his shot is off, and he can't move at all on D - Walton and Sasha embarrassed him. His ankle must be very bad. He's also getting roughed up on every play by the Fakers, so they know he's hurt.

Time for the Mango Tree, and Ime'd better show up too.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Your routine is very very tired. Every time the Spurs lose or are losing you blame it all on POP. Why don't you give the Spurs your resume and get to work you obviously think you can coach better than he can. :rolleyes

Blow me. The players are playing like shit, I'm not arguing that's not the case.

But it's not surprising our offense looks like shit when Manu gets put on the court with four guys who can't shoot, or when Pop is shuffling his damn lineups so much that the guys look over and don't even know who's beside them from one play to the next.

No one can get in a rhythm when Pop is shuffling his lineup every dead ball. This ain't the preseason. Get your players back in their system in their comfort zone.

And for the love of God, quit relying so damn much on Finley and Horry.

And tell Parker to quit shooting three pointers.

[dbreiden83080]

Yeah yeah we are old, tired have nothing left blah blah, we were dead against every team we played against right, fuck you chuck

[ATXSPUR]

Duncan and Parker need to play the full 24 minutes this half!!! Only way we win.

[Killakobe81]

Also Pop is a GREAT coach the SUNS OR BULLS would KILL to have Pop as their coach and before this season i would of even traded Phil for him but Phil has always had the BETTER Team but i dont believe this Laker team is better yet ...but Kobe is a HUGE factor in our favor ...normally Bowen shuts down the the opposing top player Paul and Kobe are the only two i have seen dominate Bowen ...consistently Lebron Mcgrady have had moments ...

[Deb]

Chuck hoping Kobe will bail him out one of these days. Kobe does know a little bit about the legal system

[kcplayboi26]

How's the fishin' bitch.



come join lol...........

[magui86770]

Awtalk, I am a huge Spurs fan, but I can't find anything in the 1st half to leads me to believe they can win this game. Maybe the change in venue in games 3 and 4 will help them...actually it will help them.

[Budkin]

Screw Pop... the players on this team have too much heart to fold... even if we lose this game we can still tie it 2-2. No quitters!

[boutons_]

We got past 20 pts in 2nd qtr, who's complaining?

Lakers are outhustling, and get a lot of easy baskets.

[dbreiden83080]

Blow me.

Go coach the Spurs and prove how much of an idiot Pop is and we'll talk wise-ass.

[timvp]

The Spurs defense looks pretty good. Offensively, it's difficult when it has now become 100% either Duncan or Parker who has to create anything. When the other team only has to guard two players, it's tough to score.

The good news is the Spurs should be down about 25 points with the way they played in the first half. Gotta believe that the team will turn it around in the second half and someone will get hot.

We Spurs fans need a miracle.

Believe.

[ballhog]

Should Manu call it quits?

Yes, he can't do anything.

[milkyway21]

tell me again why we traded Elson & signed Thomas? Wasn't it because of Gasol? Then why Pop chose to sit him instead?

He can score, you know. Just give him a freakin minute or two.

Anyone have a link to the chatroom setup for this game?

Make sure you're at www.spurstalk.com and click chat room at the top of the page. The http sometimes doesn't work, so check the address if you can't get in.

[Joe Schmoogins]

It makes me sick reading all the comments of lame fair-weather spurs "fans." Have some faith, and loyalty. There's no way we lose this series... and imo... we are winning this game tonight.

I expect a great second half. We got the terrible half out of the way already. Look for Tim to dominate, Tony to be energized, and Manu to play inspired. We got this.

For the record... Pop > Phil, and it's not even close.

[Anti.Hero]

If this team is going to play like shit, then they deserve to be called out. The whole "if you criticize your not a fan" bullshit gets old. These guys are sucking it up out there, plain and simple.

:toast

Just like the "it's only february" comments. Guess what super fans, it's fucking May/June and the Spurs still have a shitastic offense!

Kurt is carrying too much weight. he couldn't keep up with this pace.

Gonna take a miracle

[milkyway21]

Yes, he can't do anything.
I don't think so. Manu can do something to get us out of this hole.

1-1.
Make it Happen:flag:

[awktalk]

Manu is going to PWN the 2nd half.

With fans like this...

[SpurOutofTownFan]

I think this all comes down to manu hitting some shots - lets say he gets lucky and some shots fall down. I think that would mobilize his teammates. It appears manu playing like garbage has a bad influence on his teammates

[Allanon]

Yeah yeah we are old, tired have nothing left blah blah, we were dead against every team we played against right, fuck you chuck

Nah, Chuck has been hatin' on the Lakers all year, it was Kenny that was on the Lakers jock.

They switched sides right before this series started. Kenny's likin' the Spurs now and Chuck likes the Lakers...but it only started this series.

[1Parker1]

I predict a lot more Finley/Udoka in the 2nd half and less spurts of Manu.

[boutons_]

Spurs 34% vs 54%, we otta be down 30.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Go coach the Spurs and prove how much of an idiot Pop is and we'll talk wise-ass.

You're right, it takes me as head coach to know that Parker and Vaughn taking turns shooting three pointers in the corner is a bad decision. But I suppose you're going to tell me that Pop didn't draw up those plays...

[ATXSPUR]

And now will you kindly remove your head from the sand and see what the fuck is taking place?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

He can score, you know. Just give him a freakin minute or two.

No, it was for Shaq and Bynum.

I think KT is probably too slow for Gasol, but worth a try.

Manu is going to own the second half.

Believe.

1/2.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Yeah, because Oberto's locking it down when he's at half court when Fisher goes in for a layup :rolleyes

[polandprzem]

There is strong

and there is army strong

AND THERE IS SPURS STRONG!

Believe!

Yeah Right!
And Clinton is going to win the election............

[still.focused]

Maybe they moved the nightly 3rd quarter drought to the 2nd quarter
And will come out in the 3rd ready to play instead of these miserable attempt weve been privy too all too often

[odogg726]

Screw Pop... the players on this team have too much heart to fold... even if we lose this game we can still tie it 2-2. No quitters!



What happened to all that "Spurs in 5" shit you guys were spewing 2 days ago? You guys aren't the only ones playing like garbage right now, and you're still getting owned. Lakers in 5, the sooner you accept it, the better off you'll be.

[ballhog]

lol, You expect the refs to call a foul on kobe? Kobe does not foul you, you foul Kobe!

:lmao

[Deb]

Everybody on Manu, but TP isn't at the top of his game either.

[Harry Callahan]

come join lol...........

Chiefs and Suns. Losers. Games are still left to be played scumbag. How's Shaq workin' out. The big turd is at Taco Bell right now getting ready for next season.

I am proud of the Spurs and their accomplishments. Here is a word that's foreign to you - "Overachieve". How about "Championships".

It's obvious one of our best players is injured. This Laker team is good, but not great. They are not getting the Spurs best shot AT ALL.

Now go home and put that worm on the hook.

[Anti.Hero]

Just go ahead and rest Manu for the Olympics.

This is a Spurs board, shithead troll.

[1Parker1]

Believe.

Lakers are shooting 54%.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I see a huge second half from Tim and Tony, and one of the role players stepping up, maybe Ime, hopefully Brent.

[Emanuel20]

Everybody on Manu, but TP isn't at the top of his game either.

YEah but he is TRYING!
Manu is not even there!
He is watching the game with Bonner.
