Spurs vs. Lakers Game 4 - Game Blog

[ballhog]

Fuck. Every rebound bouncing into Laker hands. Jeez

[boutons_]

Tim again waiting too damn long to make his move.

4 down is dead-ball

[LakerRings]

Gasol hacks DUncan, no call. Kobe bumps Bowen, foul on Bowen.

you're kidding, right? refs are singlehandedly keeping the spurs in this game.

[hitmanyr2k]

Anyone think Kurt Thomas might do some good in this game? Damn, this is the '06 playoffs against the Mavs all over again. Popovich won't pull his head out of his ass.

And finally Duncan goes to the rim strong and gets a call. What a novel idea Tim. May want to try that more often.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Lakers now with 16 points on 9 offensive rebounds. :rolleyes

Hey Pop, maybe you should bring in a big man who can rebound...

[Bob Lanier]

See, now that was Duncan being hacked. SEe the difference?

[lefty]

All the Lakers players must be leading all the 2008 playoffs rebounding statistics now





:(

[turiaf for president]

LOL at mvp chant. votings over folks

[koopa]

why are the spurs fans chanting for kobe when tim is shooting free throws??

[peskypesky]

let;s get a stop!

[Mavs<Spurs]

Within five.

It's a good thing we are at home.


These mountains to climb when trying to make up a deficit are killers.

Just when you finally catch up (or almost catch up) after expending all of that energy, the other team usually responds and you can never quite get over the hump.


At least at home you have the fans to keep your energy up and sustain you while expending the amount of energy required to make up large deficits.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Damnit Brent, gotta make those.

[2centsworth]

why the lack of desire on the boards

[Septic]

Please leave Barry in!!!

[polandprzem]

damn chanting :bang

[hitmanyr2k]

Nice flop attempt there Kobe. Nobody can do a mid-air flop like Kobe :lol

[Spurs Brazil]

3rd on Sasha

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

See, now that was Duncan being hacked. SEe the difference?

They were both hacks.

[LakerRings]

barry pushes off, no call. sasha gets bumped, foul on sasha. terrible

[2centsworth]

brent not even close

[Mavs<Spurs]

LOL at mvp chant. votings over folks

No dispute.

Kobe was definitely the best player in the league this year.

Could argue that he has been the best player in the league for the last 3 years.

Not enough support before.

[Septic]

WTF did Thomas ever do to get his ass glued to the pine?

[ballhog]

Sasha just a big fucking hacker.

[DespЏrado]

Very nervous about this game the Spurs have got to take the lead...and get some production from Manu.

[Whiteguy]

One of the worst reffed games of these playoffs so far.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We'd be winning this game but for the pathetic rebounding... and it's come from nowhere! We've been a great rebounding team all year.

[lefty]

3 on Lamar

3 on Fish

3 on Vujabitch

If we lose this game, I'm gonna kill Pop

[koopa]

barry needs to start game 5, finley is a fucking bum

[DazedAndConfused]

The only reason the Spurs are even in this game is because of the horrific officiating.

This is one team where the refs have clearly impacted the game. The 1st quarter was one of the worst reffed quarters in the entire playoffs.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

:lol @ graphic:

Spurs +13 with Barry in, -16 with him out.

And yet Pop still gives Finley run :rolleyes

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs cut to 3

[NewJerSpur]

Good thing the Lakers are too young to know not to commit silly fouls and that they have to consistently run their offensive sets to keep the pressure on SA.

[ballhog]

you're kidding, right? refs are singlehandedly keeping the spurs in this game.

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Go to the Laker board and cry fag

[Kobulingam]

If Horry went in there and set a dirty pick on his own player (e.g., Finley), would it be a flagrant foul? Ejection? Nothing?

[LakerRings]

14 pf on LA. 8 on Spurs. 16 free throws to 8.

give me a break.

[peskypesky]

Anyone think Kurt Thomas might do some good in this game? Damn, this is the '06 playoffs against the Mavs all over again. Popovich won't pull his head out of his ass.

And finally Duncan goes to the rim strong and gets a call. What a novel idea Tim. May want to try that more often.

Kurt Thomas would help us out a lot.

[Bob Lanier]

Walton singlehandedly keeping the Spurs in the game.

[Mavs<Spurs]

within 3 thank God!

[lefty]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Radiosparks]

+1!!!!!!!!!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

We're not rebounding and Manu hasn't done shit, and it's a 3 point game.

Make that a one point game. :hat

[VinnyTestesVerde]

yeah the mvp chant is confusing

[Septic]

I Just Came In My Pants!

[Pistons < Spurs]

And 1!!!!!!

Tie this game up now!!!

[boutons_]

Brent stepping into hole left by Manu.

-3, we can pull even, or lead at the half

we'd have the lead now but for lakers humongous 2nd chance pts

[SCSnare]

Tp +1!

[Spurs Brazil]

TP and one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

[DespЏrado]

Nice Parker. Let's Go Spurs

[SpurAddict561]

fuck ya

let's go TONY

LET'S GO DAMNIT

[ballhog]

Tonyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy and one. Kobe nice follow

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

14 pf on LA. 8 on Spurs. 16 free throws to 8.

give me a break.

Spurs going to the rack, Lakers settling for jumpers. That's how it works.

[hitmanyr2k]

Tony better had made that because he had Ginobili wide open begging for the ball once again.

[polandprzem]

TP at last

[efrem1]

Thank you Barrih!!

[koopa]

fuck we suck on defense

[VinnyTestesVerde]

One of the worst reffed games of these playoffs so far.

:whine:whine:whine:whine

[hitmanyr2k]

Duncan throws up some of the dumbest oddball looking shit at times.

[Deb]

TD making pansy ass Gasol look good tonight

[Bob Lanier]

Gasol can do anything to Duncan that he wants.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Mango, you are AWESOME. :D

If only Pop listened to us earlier, eh Aggie?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Damn Joe Forte has been the Lakers MVP so far tonight.

[koopa]

i hate fisher, he cries almost more then tim duncan

[dbreiden83080]

Don't let them go on a big run to end the half, we are right back in this fucker

[Avitus1]

The cheese and wine graphic must be new....

*shrugs*

[Mavs<Spurs]

Kobe had missed his last five shots I believe.

[Septic]

Lakers look defeated on their faces, Kobe doesn't. He's going for the 4th quarter come back win.

[TKG]

Although it has seemed to benefit us, I agree. Just let them go at it.

[mystargtr34]

Fuckin Tim Duncan weak piece of fuckin shit... little bitch put it up strong or go home.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Gasol can do anything to Duncan that he wants.

Yeah, it's clear the refs aren't going to call it tonight on him.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Duncan get out of that offensive fog will ya?

[GT1]

17-17 FTs for the Spurs. Talk about homecooking.

[polandprzem]

wtf Tim


:pctoss


Tim has not fire, where is desire?

No 1-1 play wtf man?

[turiaf for president]

Gasol can do anything to Duncan that he wants.

sorry i like pau but no

[Deb]

We are feeling it now. Keep it up

[dbreiden83080]

Gasol can do anything to Duncan that he wants.

He's done nothing until tonight and it won't keep up

[gaKNOW!blee]

I dont really like our chances if Manu is scorless.

[Avitus1]

Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Lu ck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_

for funsies

[lefty]

14 pf on LA. 8 on Spurs. 16 free throws to 8.

give me a break.

Lakers in the WCF

Give me a break

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Mango, you are AWESOME. :D

If only Pop listened to us earlier, eh Aggie?

Pop's got a future with the AARP administration, he's in love with his old players.

Now if only we could get Kurt Thomas in to get control of the damn boards...

[LakerRings]

Spurs going to the rack, Lakers settling for jumpers. That's how it works.


actually, that's just not true. look at a shot chart.

refs are wildly favoring spurs.

[SpurAddict561]

Duncan needs to wake up and realize Pau couldn't guard him to save his life..that move was weak, and it was him & pau alone

and we NEEEED Manu damnit

we played a pretty horrible 1st half and we're right here...GO SPURS GO

[dbreiden83080]

wtf Tim


:pctoss


Tim has not fire, where is desire?

No 1-1 play wtf man?

Uh ok :rolleyes

[ballhog]

Gasol can do anything to Duncan that he wants.

Let's not get carried away. Tim not trying to pick up fouls.

[itzsoweezee]

take note pop we have our best lineup on the floor right now

[Bob Lanier]

Refs and their unholy alliance with the demon Gregg Popovich are the only way the Spurs could conceivably be behind

[2centsworth]

Tim is just taking awkward shots.

[GT1]

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Go to the Laker board and cry fag

Like you were when the Spurs were down 22-8?

lol if the refs hadn't stepped in Spurs would still be down by that much

[lefty]

17-17 FTs for the Spurs. Talk about homecooking.

Busted !


It's Princess Pimp !!!

[Borosai]

I like that the Spurs aren't quitting, but they need to secure those rebounds. That is killing them.

[dbreiden83080]

Pop's got a future with the AARP administration, he's in love with his old players.

Now if only we could get Kurt Thomas in to get control of the damn boards...

Where the hell is Kurt did he get released or something shit, play him POP

[dg7md]

Refs may shift momentum but by no means are they going to be responsible for the final score the majority of the time.

[polandprzem]

Like you were when the Spurs were down 22-8?

lol if the refs hadn't stepped in Spurs would still be down by that much

Good that we have Joey refereeing for us :toast

[ballhog]

Man, if we only had a little Ginobili, we could be ahead.

[Septic]

Oh fuck off on the rebound talk pop, until you try Kurt just stfu.

[DazedAndConfused]

There is absolutely no way you can say the refs aren't significantly biased towards the Spurs tonight.

Just no consistency in the calls.

[lefty]

Pop trying to scare the shit out of his players with those offensive boards


Good stuff

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

actually, that's just not true. look at a shot chart.

refs are wildly favoring spurs.

Yeah, the Spurs have always stepped aside on layup opportunities so they don't turn into and1s in the playoffs, nothing new there.

[Avitus1]

Bones!!!

[boutons_]

Lakers got tons of way too easy points.

Spur have to work for theirs

[koopa]

i can't believe barry is the only one that came to play

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Oh lord, Allanon, why have you still got those SLAPPERS up??? Get us some PRIME LA totty will ya? :rolleyes

This is going to be a barn-burner of a game - prepare yourself for a heart attack.

I predict a killer game from TP since he's been quiet of late, and some useful work from Mr Mango Tree.

Page 6 of this thread, before the game. :D

[Spurs Brazil]

Nice play Brent

TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tie game

Defense!!!!!!!!

[2centsworth]

that's a foul Tim

[lefty]

Good that we have Joey refereeing for us :toast

Don't bother it's Princess Pimp.....

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Forte tags Duncan for the same thing he's letting Gasol do x10 against Tim.

[boutons_]

3rd pf tim

quit whining, bitch

[Bob Lanier]

How is Pau still standing after that brutal hack by Duncan?

[Septic]

There is absolutely no way you can say the refs aren't significantly biased towards the Spurs tonight.

Just no consistency in the calls.
stop crying game isnt over yet.

[SCSnare]

Great one-handed rebound by Barry

[L.I.T]

Beautiful. That's what I like to come back to.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Damn Manu doesn't look like he has any lift in his legs.

[lefty]

Manu bad shot

[2centsworth]

Manu has got to hit shots or attack the bucket.

[koopa]

i guess manu used everything he had left in game 3

[Septic]

this crowd wants to rip the lid off the building and the spurs are missing open shots

[ballhog]

Manu could have brought the house down with that one....damn

[SCSnare]

rejection by Duncan

[lefty]

Farmer :lmao

[Spurs Brazil]

Nice block TD

KT in for TD

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Kurt Thomas finally in the game. holy shit :wow

[koopa]

if tony didn't fall so damn much, he'd have better control and probably make some tough layups

[hitmanyr2k]

I wonder if Doug Collins ever listens to himself after a broadcast and just feel like a Laker whore.

[DazedAndConfused]

Only now are the calls starting to even out. Now that the Laker lead has all but evaporated.

I shouldn't have expected any better from the NBA.

[VinnyTestesVerde]

There is absolutely no way you can say the refs aren't significantly biased towards the Spurs tonight.

Just no consistency in the calls.

i have an idea...now hear me out. less fouling = less foul shots for the other team. there i said it. just a thought.

wait wait i got it. the NBA WANTS the spurs to advance for all those badass finals ratings right?!?! :lmao

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

You could see it in Manu's three ball attempt, he has no lift in his legs. Damnit.

[Septic]

Pop puts kurt in the last minute, woah pop slow down there....

[Sigz]

lol Manu chucking towels on players again.

[mystargtr34]

Man come on Manu... were not gonna win this game without Manu im sorry... Kobe is gonna step it up in the second half.
We need him

[Bob Lanier]

Luke Walton is somehow still shooting a higher percentage than Manu Ginobili.

[koopa]

lol @ ppl saying the fans would have brought the roof down if manu made that shoot, they probably would have barely clapped, quite ass bitches

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I wonder if Doug Collins ever listens to himself after a broadcast and just feel like a Laker whore.

But he likes it like that...

[polandprzem]

we had chance to get over hump

gino blew it


crushial play

[Deb]

Manu needs to get it going in the second half

[lefty]

Only now are the calls starting to even out. Now that the Laker lead has all but evaporated.

I shouldn't have expected any better from the NBA.

It was about fucking time.

Refs have helped the Lakers too much

[ballhog]

I wonder if Doug Collins ever listens to himself after a broadcast and just feel like a Laker whore.

His is sucking Laker dick hard right now.

[boutons_]

Spurs 2-10 for 3Gs, bad omen

[2centsworth]

Only now are the calls starting to even out. Now that the Laker lead has all but evaporated.

I shouldn't have expected any better from the NBA.

stop crying like a bitch.


Fin without any freakin heart on the boards.

[lefty]

Finley FUCK you !!!

[Canuck]

Pau is making himself look like a moron begging for calls.

Maybe a little less complaining and a little more scoring.

Kobe has to step it up and has to take control of the game like he can instead
of making himself look like an assist-man and just go to the rim.

Walton had a weak start and is playing so-so right now.

Odom = wtf

Wow, Walton just out hustled Manu..

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

And Walton beats Finley to a rebound. I'm *shocked*.

Seriously Pop, what part of Finley sucking absolute hind tit don't you understand?

[mystargtr34]

Ths is absoutely fuckin disgraceful

[Deb]

Rebounding, second effort shots have killed us so far

someone needs to stick their feet under finley and take him out, i wonder if bowen would do it to his own teammate

[Spurs Brazil]

Tp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[2centsworth]

that's a good call.

[DazedAndConfused]

The Lakers are gonna win this game IN SPITE OF THE REF FIX.

[L.I.T]

Rebounds.

[turiaf for president]

walton just made manu his bitch

[lefty]

Manu on Walton ?

Small Ball SUCKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mystargtr34]

:lol Luke Walton killing Manu

[Deb]

Manu, please get your damn head in this game

[Spurs Brazil]

FUCK

Walton killing us

[koopa]

well that was a nice attempt at a comeback, now they just blow the lead open again cause pop can't coach

[hitmanyr2k]

There was no foul on the shot there. Phantom call.

[2centsworth]

Manu has got to stop pussing out on D

[lefty]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[baseline bum]

Son of a bitch. Grab a fucking board

[Spurs Brazil]

Unbelivable

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Finley gets beat to the rebound off the miss on the FT.

[DazedAndConfused]

WHAT A FINISH. That's how you close out halves.

[2centsworth]

playing with no freakin heart tonight

[L.I.T]

Parker at least is staying aggressive in attacking the basket.

Barry has been so far the catalyst.

[acidsmoke86]

Walton playing like a true champion keep it up mate, !!!!!! lakers for the victory !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SPurs SUCKS BIG TIME

lets WIN THIS SHIT !!

[Deb]

FUCK

Walton killing us

Of all the f___ things, Walton getting to Manu? WTF?

[Popo>Phil]

Manu...

[ballhog]

Walton knows Crawford is under the basket for a call for Lakers.

[itzsoweezee]

well that was a fucking horrible way to end the half

[turiaf for president]

walton just made manu his bitch

and so did kobe

[mystargtr34]

:lol wowkeeps getting better.

The refs are trying to keep us in the game and yet we cant do anything about it.

[SpurAddict561]

we sucked really bad closing that quarter out

SHIT

we need to wake the fuck up on the defensive boards!!!!

[Sigz]

Damn

[lefty]

FUck you POp


Finley SOn of a Bitch

FUUUUUUUUUCK

Refs helping Lakers, assholes!!!!



Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh

[Spurs Brazil]

Lakers up 6 at the half

Rebs KILLING us

[GT1]

Spurs 0 fts = down 22-8

spurs 17fts = 43-43

LOL REFS

[DazedAndConfused]

If any Spur fan EVER complains about the refs they need to rewatch the 1st quarter of this game. One of the worst reffed quarters I've ever seen.

[Mavs<Spurs]

Closing out the first half?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

And the Lakers score on another offensive rebound.

:pctoss

20 points on 11 offensive rebounds.

Glad Finley gave up that last one, after all he took a pay cut to come to SA. :vomit:

[VinnyTestesVerde]

The Lakers are gonna win this game IN SPITE OF THE REF FIX.

:whine:cry:whine:cry:whine:cry

[dbreiden83080]

I just busted my beer bottle on that last blown Reb,

What the Fuck, are we are actually going end our season because we are getting spanked on the glass??

[ballhog]

Another over the back. This is bullshit. Refs handing game to Lakers. Spurs had a nice run.

[aka_USAPA]

Lakers look defeated on their faces, Kobe doesn't. He's going for the 4th quarter come back win.

They look defeated with a 6-point lead going into the half? I'll take that. Here comes the dreaded 3rd quarter.

[boutons_]

Spurs losing on their court at halftime in an elimination game.

Lakers RB say they want it worse.

[mikekim]

Michael Finley is absolutely useless. He's (as usual) trying to just coast through the game while throwing up the occasional brick.

Crash the boards, Fin!!

[Deb]

LOL Gay Walton being interviewed. He is drooling all over himself.
So much shit that we made this dweeb look good

[polandprzem]

4 Lakers playes have more (or same) amount of rebs then Tim

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Fark, I hope Manu turns up in the 3rd.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

If any Laker fan bitches about the refs they just need to rewatch the entire Western semis with LA shooting 42 FTs a game.

fify.

[dbreiden83080]

If any Spur fan EVER complains about the refs they need to rewatch the 1st quarter of this game. One of the worst reffed quarters I've ever seen.

Uh Tim got hit aBOUT 5 TIMES AND no call at all, Tony about 3 times, so quit whining

[J.T.]

Sucks to be you, Dazed.

[2centsworth]

WHAT A FINISH. That's how you close out halves.


really what do you know about basketball except for trolling opposing team sites?

Are you really this much of a loser.

[Spurs Brazil]

Finley can't play a single minute in the 2nd half

Start Barry and the bring Manu off the bench

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

EVERY freakin loose ball has gone to them. WTF is that about???

[dbreiden83080]

This sucks Manu has nothing again and we can't get a reb to save our lives

[Admidave50]

gotta fucking kidding me, they had billions of offensive rebounds!

[SpursDynasty]

This game has been dragging horribly. It's barely 9:30 and we're just hitting halftime.

[Mavs<Spurs]

Manu no points, but at least he has one rebound.


Finley is just straight zeros!

:bang

[Allanon]

The Lakers are the ones with their starters in foul trouble.

Lakers 15 fouls
Spurs 10 fouls

Good game so far, keep up the intensity in the 2nd half and it's all good.

[boutons_]

Manu's +/- is +6, but he hasn't scored.

If Manu plays this badly in 2nd half, Spurs season over.

[01Snake]

We need rebounds and some outside shots to fall or.....


We're screwed!

[lefty]

Of all the f___ things, Walton getting to Manu? WTF?


You can say the same thing about Barry

[dbreiden83080]

really what do you know about basketball except for trolling opposing team sites?

Are you really this much of a loser.

Yes he is

[Canuck]

Odom with 3 fouls.
Fisher with 3 fouls.
Farmar with 3 fouls.
Vujacic with 3 fouls.

Thank god Kobe has 0.

[Borosai]

There is NO excuse for giving up so many offensive rebounds. That has killed them this first half.

[TDfan2007]

Another over the back. This is bullshit. Refs handing game to Lakers. Spurs had a nice run.

dude, c'mon. THey are COMPLETELY outhustling us. In fact we've gotten the benefit of the whistle tonight. Just an atrocious performance by everyone on the boards.

Once again Manu is MIA.

Wake the fuck up Spurs or your season is OVER!

[NewJerSpur]

If any Spur fan EVER complains about the refs they need to rewatch the 1st quarter of this game. One of the worst reffed quarters I've ever seen.

Shaq got away with much worse for entire series at a time as a Laker. The Spurs are being the agressors while the Lakers are shooting jumpers....the 2nd chance points are doing SA in though.

[peskypesky]

all that fucking hard work down the drain, fightin back into the game, squandered....because dumbfuck Pop insists on playing Finley and refuses to put in another rebounder!!!!!! aarrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[polandprzem]

27-14

REBOUNDS !

14 rebs in a half disgrace, absolute dominance by LA team 24 minutes to go.
This is season deciding game. Where is Tim with rebs, where is Manu?

[ballhog]

If any Spur fan EVER complains about the refs they need to rewatch the 1st quarter of this game. One of the worst reffed quarters I've ever seen.

Gasol wasn't over the back on that missed freethrow??? Your eyes need checking. The Spurs have sucked but that crap should be called. Gasol should have at least 3 fouls by now if not more.

[mystargtr34]

The Spurs just arent good enough right now.

We can make all the excuses for Manu... but at the end of the day no body gives a fuck.

[pbandjnocrust]

Why is Finley playing? He gave up 2 off rebounds in the final 2 minutes, passes up or bricks open shots, 2 turnovers

[2centsworth]

Spurs losing on their court at halftime in an elimination game.

Lakers RB say they want it worse.


dude I agree with you. NOw I must die.

[Deb]

Well, hope the half time ass chewin, pep talk will get them going
As if goig 3-1 won't do it.

[dbreiden83080]

gotta fucking kidding me, they had billions of offensive rebounds!

Billions and billions of them we suck right now, if not for Barry we are down 20

[koopa]

i don't get why players on this team get tenure, finley should not be playing, but since he's old and has had a good career pop continues to play him

barry has made a huge impact today, he should get ever single minute finley would be getting

pop is the reason we'll never ever repeat, he gets out coached with ease

[Spurs3000]

It's getting to the point where I feel physically sick every time I see Finley on the court.

[DazedAndConfused]

The Spurs are playing a horrible game, they are only in this because of the free throw line. And they only got to the free throw line because the refs decided to call ticky tacks on the Lakers and let everything else slide on the other end.

It's almost not worth getting out to a big lead early against SAS. The refs will always let the Spurs back into the game.

[AztecPrincss]

Im fukin stressed ....mad...dissapointed...spurs just seem like they dont want shietttttt so let them keep playing like shiet and ppl talking about them thats wat they want They get no respect cause they dont want it.....FUk play agressive ~!!!!!!!!!

[Don Quixote]

At some point, we're going to have to get a rebound or two.

L.A.'s killing us on the offensive glass.

[myhc]

what a disgraceful "effort" on the glass. absolutely pathetic.

[SpursDynasty]

The Lakers aren't really doing anything to beat us. We're beating ourselves. Again, just a couple of lucky shots here and there for the Lakers.

[nkdlunch]

they getting bitchslapped on the boards. They came with no balls tonight.

Horry is just fucking plays up. not to mention Manu. He is playing like complete shit.

I am shocked we are only down by 6 points. THank god Lakers are commiting stupid fouls.

[ballhog]

Odom with 3 fouls.
Fisher with 3 fouls.
Farmar with 3 fouls.
Vujacic with 3 fouls.

Thank god Kobe has 0.

Doesn't a rape count as a foul?

[peskypesky]

parker has more rebounds than bowen, oberto, finley and horry COMBINED!!!!

[lefty]

4 Lakers playes have more (or same) amount of rebs then Tim

Check NBA.com

ALL Lakers players are topping the offensive rebounds playoffs stats thanks to this game

:flipoff

[Bob Lanier]

Brent Barry was the best player on the court for either team.

Gasol's outplaying Duncan, which you can't expect to continue. Bryant and Odom up and down, nothing from the bench on either side...

If the Spurs make more of an effort on the glass they'll win the game. The refs have been fairly even - only three or four calls toward the home team on net - and I doubt they'll bend over backwards to help the Lakers down the stretch.

[boutons_]

yep, Spurs just playing basketball, not playing an elimination game.

[nkdlunch]

no more finley please!!!

more barry. Try Kurt Thomas.

[TampaDude]

EVERY freakin loose ball has gone to them. WTF is that about???

They are just outhustling the Spurs on the boards...and that is the difference in this game...the Spurs could be up 6 instead of down 6 right now. They just need to make some adjustments...maybe put Udoka on Walton...Manu can't stop Walton...he's way too big.

Not to worry...Pop will fix what's broken...the Spurs will still win this game...no worries... :toast

[polandprzem]

all that fucking hard work down the drain, fightin back into the game, squandered....because dumbfuck Pop insists on playing Finley and refuses to put in another rebounder!!!!!! aarrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

yea he dig Udoka deep on the bench

fooooooook

The Lakers made a living off of Shaq getting big men and whole teams into foul trouble and have the rings to show for it. Suck it up and enjoy L.A. hopefully temporary lead.

[IllegalAmigo]

The Spurs better win this 2nd half by 7 points or more. If they don't, their season is over. Kaputz. No repeat. You gotta' repeat at least once if you want to throw the word "Dynasty" around.

[Mavs<Spurs]

So, we began this game with the ASSUMPTION that we would make a third quarter run to get back into the game.


Huge gamble down 2-1 with Lakers having homecourt advantage and going back to Staples.


Hope the Spurs are lucky.


And why was this necessary?

Why building this kind of ditch for yourself, Spurs?


Do you just not want to win?

That's what it looks like, especially given the rebounding difference.

[TDfan2007]

Tim only has FOUR rebounds...and he's once again missing easy shots around the basket. This bullshit needs to stop.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu no points, but at least he has one rebound.


Finley is just straight zeros!

:bang

That's not true, Finley's got a turnover too. :lol

[lefty]

Manu had 22 pts in the 1st half of game 3.

Manu will have at least 20 pts in the 2nd half tonight

Book it

[peskypesky]

It's getting to the point where I feel physically sick every time I see Finley on the court.

it just makes me want to hit Pop in the head with a baseball bat

[Canuck]

The Lakers aren't really doing anything to beat us. We're beating ourselves. Again, just a couple of lucky shots here and there for the Lakers.

I wouldn't say lucky shots, because that could be said for the spurs as well.

I think it's just the Lakers working harder for the rebounds and running for loose balls.

It's the 17/17 FT's for the Spurs that are keeping them in the game.

[Spurminator]

man it would be awesome if manu had some points right now

[DazedAndConfused]

The Lakers made a living off of Shaq getting big men and whole teams into foul trouble and have the rings to show for it. Suck it up and enjoy L.A. hopefully temporary lead.

WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT SHAQ? How does that have any impact on THIS game you dumbshit motherfucker?

The calls are finally starting to even out, so I'll shutup. But that lead should be at least 15-20, and not 6.

[imtehma]

What is weird to me...

Lakers are outrebounding them, with +14 in second chance points and we are only up 6. WHY?

I know why... Lamar Odom out with 3 fouls, sSashas, out with 3 fouls, FIsher out with 3 fouls.

Lakers dominated the Spurs even through the home cooking. Lets hope its not as blatant in the 2nd half as it is in the first.

[Septic]

I GUARANTEE the Spurs come out and get dunked on, get it stolen, or run 24 secs on the clock for a TO. Book it.

[timvp]

-Thank the basketball gods for Brent Barry.

-Thank the basketball gods for these refs.

-Please get a damn rebound.

-Please get a !@#$ing rebound.

-If Manu is not going to score or defend, at least rebound. Thanks in advance.

-Duncan has to take it up stronger.

-Horrible first half.

Gotta pull this out.

1.

Believe.

[Avitus1]

Time for the Spurs to wake the hell up!

[2centsworth]

Manu is playing on one ankle. Without the 3 pt stroke he's no use to us.

[Deb]

LOl, Brent Barry the best guy out there in the first half but we'll take it.

GO SHAGGY GO

Seriously, TD and Manu HAVE to get going
