[SpursDynasty]

All the Lakers have done is win one more game than we did. Down 2-1. One team is always down 2-1 after three games and that does not make them the loser of the series.

Another easy W coming up...maybe we'll jump on them early so Manu can rest...

[RashoFan]

Stay strong on D, get some boards, get the win at home and send Lakers home knowing that the Spurs are the defending Champs and they will not go quitely into the night. Lets have ourselves a "series" boys and :makemyday

Meh, depends on the flow of the game. Last night for a while was basically "get the hell out of the way and let Manu go to work". If they double a lot he needs to make smart choices out there. Effective aggression is the key for Timmy.

The game will be determined by the play of Odom or Gasol. At home, it is almost a sure thing that our Big 3 will play well.

[Mamba24]

It's not really Pau who the Spurs should be concerned about. It's Lamar who creates the match-up problem. Pau didn't have a good game in Game 2....I think he had 10 points but the Lakers blew away the Spurs mainly because of Lamar's play.

[TampaDude]

Get Game 4 and the momentum going back to LA.

Spurs in 6. BELIEVE!!! :flag:

Keep the motion O going.

Big 3 step with +20 each. All 3 need to be more aggressive.

More Barry

Rest Bowen when Kobe is off the floor.

[1Parker1]

Man, I am nervous and excited for the game. Spurs entire season could arguably rest on the outcome of tonight's game.

It's hard to believe that after all the drama; Double 0T win against Pheonix, Coming back from 0-2 against a young, hungry Hornets team has now come down to this; A game 4 against the Lakers at home.

Even though it's not a Game 7, it's a "must win" game for the Spurs.

[Mamba24]

I hope not either I don't want to hear no Spur babies crying.

Didn't Joey do tonight's Boston/Detroit game?

[KB24 MVP]

Lakers in 5 theyll get 2morrows game and if by miracle the Spurs win they finish them off at SA in game 6 look for the bench and Odom Fisher n Gasol 2 step it up.... ohh and by the way a warrior fan telling spurs fan well jump on them early damn u have no respect 4 ur team hahaha just like last time we believe hahahaha no u better want 2 believe 2 get a good player in the lottery cause J-Rich aint coming back hahahaha loser

[samikeyp]

Gasol will play much better. Idont expect too much from Odom... hes not a clutch performer, but Fish and Kobe will come up big tomorrow. We wont be coming back to the Alamo.

I see it the other way. I think Odom is due for a big performance but Gasol will still struggle.

Fisher will need to come up big for LA to win. Kobe will still be Kobe, hopefully Bowen can continue to make him work for his points....nobody else can.

[Brutalis]

Spurs have to get it done at home tonight. Just 1 guys, tie it up brand new best of 3..

[Ronaldo McDonald]

Gasol will play much better. Idont expect too much from Odom... hes not a clutch performer, but Fish and Kobe will come up big tomorrow. We wont be coming back to the Alamo.

[DazedAndConfused]

LA in 5 baby!

Game 3 was all about saving face for the Sperms. They are tired and fatigued, nothing left in the tank. LA is going to run them out of the building!!! Kobe, Odom, and Gasol going to have huge games.

[Man of Steel]

Lickers will lose game 4;

Go home and lose game 5

Come back to SA for game 6--close-out game--and lose

[milkyway21]

8-0 @ At&t

2-2.

[SpursDynasty]

The Spurs will win this game plain and simple. There are harder teams in the West than the Lakers (Phoenix, Dallas, Utah, New Orleans) and we let these scrubs take two games from us. All they did was make their shots and we didn't. No talent required for that type of thing to happen. They just shot well on their homecourt. 2 out of the next 3 are in SA.

[T Park]

Lakers need to slam the door hard on the Spurs on Tuesday. Then it will be their .1


How about that lottery pick!!!!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Obi Wan Ginobili's gonna be carving up the Laker defenders in game 4...


nqydT7h3ZJE

[Cry Havoc]

If not for a horrible half of shooting (possibly the worst in our playoff franchise history), we would have a chance at going up 3-1 right now.

As it is, if we win game 4, it means the series is 2-2 with a blown 20 point lead in Game 1. I know for SURE that it wasn't the LA defense that shut us down, we just couldn't hit a shot.

Avoid that again, and we can win this series.

[AztecPrincss]

Just Do wat you do best SPURS!!! DEFEND!I DONT WANNA SEE KOBE GETTING 50 POINTS ON THIS GAME..HE KNOWS ITS NOW OR NEVER..(((DEFFEND KOBE ,THE THREE POINT LINE AND WILL BE OK)))..OH AND IF ITSNOT TO MUCH TO ASK PLEASE MAKE yOUR fREE tHROWSSss!!!! =X

[Streakyshooter08]

Spurs got this.

[Banzai]

should be a great game tonight:toast

[turiaf for president]

doh didnt see this sticky

i think the keys to victories are:

Spurs victory
the big three needs to play effective and another role guy like barry, finley, or udoka needs to have a solid game.

Duncan will get his numbers especially if phil stays single coverage with pau

parker will get his 18 and 7

they wild card is manu. if he playes like he did in game 3, its going to be tough for the lakers to win game 4. having said that, manu hit some ridiculous shots on fisher and sashas heads. i dont think he'll have that crazy of a game but will be effective tonite.

Lakers victory
kobe will be kobe but the biggest wildcard is odom. he NEEDS to take oberto and horry to the hole and finish strong. there is no way they can check him if odom is aggressive. and he needs to make FT's.

fisher also needs to knock down his open shots. i think he has proven his playoff prowless and will come to play tonite.

the bench also needs to play well for the lakers to have a chance tonite. as with the cases so far in the playoffs. the younger benches play way better at home. they feel more comfortable and feed off the crowd. if the lakers get some good bench play along with odom and fisher playing like they did all year, i feel they can steal a game at the alamo. (or at&t now)

[pawe]

Im hoping for Manu having a back to back 30 point game.

[PDXSpursFan]

Play Spurs basketball for 48 minutes = guarantee victory :flag: :toast

[Mavs<Spurs]

This game will determine whether or not we still have a chance in this series.

If we win it, we're still underdogs in the series, but the series is far from over.


If we lose it, our season will have come to an end.

It's not that it would be impossible to beat this Lakers team 3 times, but it would extremely unlikely.

This is a great Lakers team. No real weaknesses.

[Mavs<Spurs]

It won't be easy, but I expect that we will win it.


I think that it will be relatively close. That's dangerous since they have Kobe on their team, one of the best forth quarter players in the history of the nba.

One thing that kind of confuses me though is that I thought that he was a great 3 point shooter. By percentage, he is mediocre.

[Mavs<Spurs]

I hope to move back to the San Antonio area this Fall to start my ph.d. (Texas State in San Marcos).


It's not been as bad as I feared (I moved to Dallas / Ft Worth area this past fall) with the Mavericks fans because of the lack of success of their team.

[Borosai]

I want to sleep well tonight. Win.

[xtremesteven33]

Kobe is not a great 3 point shooter. he is a streaky 3 point shooter. kinda like Ginobili. it all depends on his conifdence with his shot. when hes on, hes on. when hes off, hes off.

let him take all the shots he wants. take Gasol and Odom out of the game and well be all right.
also the offense can have no stagnant moments. thats why we got the Mango tree.

[gameFACE]

We just need a good balanced attack from the big three to be in control. I don't see Manu having a big game like last time but he will definitely have a good game. And Tony is bound to find his way into the paint more.

But if not, by any means necessary is a good strategy.

[BiZNicK]

The biggest key for the Spurs today is this:

WIN.

[SpursDynasty]

The Lakers had a chance to put the Spurs in a 3-0 hole and they couldn't. This is what people don't realize about why a series is seven games. A 2-0 series lead is never safe and doesn't mean shit UNLESS you're the road team winning the first two on the road. Any team can win at home in the playoffs, it's as simple as that. You take care of your home games at the least, and you're in a Game 7 at home. NOW you have to be good enough to handle the pressures of a do or die game. The Hornets couldn't and if this series goes seven games the Lakers can forget about it.

Best teams win seven game series. That's why they expanded the first round to seven games instead of five, to avoid fluke teams going into the 2nd round.

The Lakers just went out and shot a couple of hoops those first two games. No big deal. We just beat them by 19. Now what?

[SPARKY]

lwo? limp-wristed outcasts?

yeah, is that a brand new thing this year?

juvenile little fags :lol

[austinlakepirate]

If the Spurs has shot 50% in the first two games they would have probably won those too. It wasn't the Lakers D that kept our boys from scoring, they had wide open shots, They were just missing, and Manu was hurt.

Manu is obviously feeling a little better, the shoting drought is over, And Spurs defense looks stronger than ever.

I'd expect to see a replay of game 3 tonight. Difference- Kobe will take and miss a lot more shots tonight.

Spurs are like a freight train. They may be slow to start a series but once they gain momentum they are nearly impossible to stop. Once they have you figured our your cooked.

[austinlakepirate]

Okay acid smoke 86.

How did you come to this conclusion? If you don't mind me asking.

Funny one about being worried about Boston though. :blah



Lakers should win this one easily, im just concerned about the Celtics now thats a team that should make lakers player sweat. :downspin:

[EVAY]

The Lakers are going to come out VERY aggressive tonight. A lot will be told early on when we see how the Spurs and the refs respond to the Lakers. If the Spurs are willing to take them, I think the Lakers (especially Odom) can be called for a lot of offensive fouls. Odom has already said he plans to go to the rim early and often and dunk a lot. If Fab can keep him from getting the ball too deep, Odom will foul on the way to the basket. Then it's a question of whether or not Joey will call an offensive foul on him. I don't have a clue about that.

A good strategy might be to sag off Kobe, let him get his jump shots in, and hopefully mesmerize his teammates into watching him, rather than getting into the game themselves.

The lakers are going to be in our passing lanes big time, so our ball control is going to be critical. This means no forcing the ball to Tim whether he is open or not. When we do that, we almost guarantee a turnover.

We know the triangle offense almost as well as the Laker players, so we know where they are going to want to go and when. We need to anticipate where they are going and get some steals and then fast breaks. They have been very good about getting back on defense, and Tony really needs to speed it up to get past Derek without incurring an offensive foul.

We can win this game. It will be a matter of whether or not our savvy will overcome their raw talent. In other words, a repeat of N.O. Are we hungry enough to fight effectively for this? I think so. We will never be closer to a repeat championship than we are this year. We have to retool before next season. Let's get it done NOW.

[jaysmooth422]

with his teammates being non existant and kobe truthfully never being in this position ever without the most dominant force in the nba. How will the fakers re adjust? :flag:

[ThomasGranger]

The rest of the Lakers didn't do much to win Kobe's trust in game 3, so I'll be surprised if we second another 2 point first half from him tonight, like we did with game 1.

Hopefully he goes for 50 while his teammates stand around watching and the Spurs get the win.

[Texas_Ranger]

GO SPURS GO!!!

Lets win this game!!!

[peskypesky]

That's what I'm expecting. Kobe's in a tough position. If he defers to his team-mates too much, and they don't deliver, he'll get reamed for not taking the game into his own hands. But if he does try to do too much by himself, and they lose, he'll get reamed for being a ball-hog.

[spurs2012]

do we have a vbookie tonight?

[nkdlunch]

I don't see what's shocking about this.

Lamar is doing his usual dissapearing acts. Gasol is known for being soft and a choker. Fisher looks to be dead tired. Radmanovic is in another planet. This was all bound to happen.

Kobe will shoot some shots and carry his team to a WCF exit. Nothing to see here.

[Mikeyjr88]

Gasol will play much better. Idont expect too much from Odom... hes not a clutch performer, but Fish and Kobe will come up big tomorrow. We wont be coming back to the Alamo.


I'm sorry, but I just love your sig. It shows how dirty Bryant is.

[LakersMark]

Nobody has choked its 2-1 and alot more basketball to be played. The Lakers will play as a team and Kobe will get more help tonight.

[acidsmoke86]

I will bet all my 1,500,000,000,000,000 VBookie today, thats it because I say Lakers will be the victorious team tonight.

Your heard it here first from me, acidsmoke86, no need to ask any else. Thats it. Thats all. Thats the final word, everything the best poster of SpursTalk has to say. period.

[velik_m]

Come on Spurs, kick some LA butt!

[dbreiden83080]

1.

Believe,

get this tied up and back to LA

[austinlakepirate]

I think Kobe will take a lot more shots tonight. He'll try to involve the rest of the team, but he'll probably pass less and shoot more. The higher his percentage the more he'll shoot.

It's pretty clear that the rest of the team really needs the home court advantage to compete against a defensive team.

[GT1]

Spurs are at home, refs on their side, they're role players are excited, Spurs should take this one. We shall see.

[awktalk]

Interesting stats from today's dime:

San Antonio has won 13 straight and 16 of its past 17 playoff games at home. The Spurs have won 15 of their past 21 playoff games overall.

[hsxvvd]

vbookie?

[LakerRings]

Look for kobe to drive the lane much more frequently tonight. I expect to see more pick and roll with both lamar and Gasol. Kobe will drive and dunk or drive and dish, depending on what the defense does. There has been so much press about the lack of free throws for kobe that I expect he will try to exploit this.

That is really the key to the triangle offense is that it is a series of reads - the issue is one of execution. The number of blown wide open shots by the lakers in the last game was astounding. That won't likely happen again.

I expect to see this game go to overtime. Looking forward to it.

Bowen will run out of gas, and Kobe will lead Lakers to a last second win.

[DazedAndConfused]

You guys are really something.

Last I checked it's still 2-1. So somebody outside of Kobe must have done something right to get those two wins.

[KOBE=MICHAELJORDAN]

I have a strong feeling Kobe the god Bryant will go off for 80 pts tonight and lead the lakers to a 50 pt victory the only reason why you guys won the last game is because the refs would not call any fouls on the lakers when they got hacked driving it to the lane. I hope you are ready to have your season come to a end tonight basically as kobe goes for 80 pts and the lakers beat the ref spurs 138-87

[acidsmoke86]

delete this shity message.

[acidsmoke86]

should be easy for the lakers I mean, sundays game was all prepared by the NBA, since there no way STERN and the NBA can make alot of money from a Lakers SWEEP, instead the NBA applied the same dose from the MJ23 era and extended the series.

After soaking in the Lakers last loss to a hot shooting Spur team, I sure can use a Laker win tonight.

Good luck to both teams, the Lakers are gonna need some to sneak a win tonight but they'll pull it out.

[1Parker1]

Why is this 6 pages before the game even begins?

Because fans are anxious and excited...it's a big game for the Spurs. Lose this one and their season is pretty much over.

[1Parker1]

:lmao I love how Horry is just sitting on the sidelines, not even warming up. Horry you definitely need to practice on your shot!

[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.

[Bob Lanier]

First Eva mention of the night - apparently she didn't get the white T-shirt message.

What are those? Hearts?

[mystargtr34]

:lol lets doooo this

[Don Quixote]

TNT just showed a couple holding hands ... the girl wearing a Spurs jersey, the man wearing Lakers.

Disgusting.

[Bob Lanier]

In other Eva news, Haagen-Dazs "vanilla-raspberry swirl" frozen yogurt is fucking delicious.

I'm starting in on my second pint and beginning to regret I only got two.

[mystargtr34]

Nice hat Pop

[themvp]

Just win this one, nothing else matters.

[Sonia_TX]

Did the announcer guy say "LA will go home 3-1"?

[lefty]

NOW THATS A HOMER CALL IF I HAVE EVER SEEN ONE>>>>>

That dude couldnt post 39 if Kobe dropped in 20 on his behalf.....


What a tool...:lol

I was kidding you dumbfuck :donkey

But he would drop 39 and 10 on the Bobcats anytime

[Bob Lanier]

Tony is captivated by the Jumbotron video.

[ipeefreely]

TNT just showed a couple holding hands ... the girl wearing a Spurs jersey, the man wearing Lakers.

Disgusting.

Osama, the drawer in which taxes will be raised in order to give you a $ 300 tax credit...so you can buy an IPOD....LOL.... meanwhile when you go to your boss and ask for a raise and he declines due to the fact that OSAMA has raised the corp C tax basis rate from 35% to 42% (which he will do) then you can calm yoursefl listening to your (I PAID FOR IT ALREADY) IPOD

R U really this stupid?

LOL where do you think the money is coming from ?

From small business owners....and mid level industry tax hikes...

God.... he knows not what he says,,,,

[lefty]

Crawford?


Fuck fuck fuck

[ipeefreely]

I was kidding you dumbfuck :donkey

But he would drop 39 and 10 on the Bobcats anytime

He is bench foder and your team is old and dying a slow painful death...we'll see if you are posting here when they are in the WC cellar in the near future:sleep:downspin::hat:whine:lmao

[1Parker1]

Damn, they just showed Kobe on the TNT cam. He looks like he has his killer Mamba face on. I expect that whole "Kobe not getting to the FT line" thing to change tonight.

[lefty]

Better having Joey in game 4 than 5 after all....

[Bob Lanier]

What a smug looking bastard. :lol at that cocky grin at the mention of how his record's doing.

[duncan228]

Did the announcer guy say "LA will go home 3-1"?

He said "LA will go home with a 3-1 lead or no lead at all."

[1Parker1]

TNT just showed a couple holding hands ... the girl wearing a Spurs jersey, the man wearing Lakers.

Disgusting.

:lmao

[lefty]

He is bench foder and your team is old and dying a slow painful death...we'll see if you are posting here when they are in the WC cellar in the near future:sleep:downspin::hat:whine:lmao

Your team is young and already dead....:lol

Um ... you make a decent case against the liberals.

But what does this have to do with basketball?

[SuperManu!!!]

Oh fuck....Dan Crawford it there... Stern wants celtics boston final

[Bob Lanier]

:lmao Lamar gets cheered.

[lefty]

Sasha guarding Manu ?

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

[alon504]

[lefty]

Oh fuck....Dan Crawford it there... Stern wants celtics boston final

It's Joey

[Lakers_55]

good luck tonight Spurs, I think the Lakers can steal this one....If not, I'll be back later congratulating as I did last game.

[Mavs<Spurs]

Looking for Javie in game 5!



Spurs haven't lost in their last 8 playoff games at home!


Go Spurs!


Probably won't be easy, this is a great Lakers team!

But, Spurs had a great home record this year!

Hope we don't have to rely upon a patented third quarter run.

I also hope that it isn't close in the fourth since Kobe is one of the best fourth quarter players in the history of the NBA!

[dbreiden83080]

Tony on the player cam

[lefty]

I like the fact that Vujabitch is guarding Manu tonight

:downspin::downspin:

[turiaf for president]

:lmao Lamar gets cheered.

I don't really see any weaknesses in this Lakers team.

:bang

[SuperManu!!!]

It's Joey

Right!

[midgetonadonkey]

Fuck you....at least I'm rooting for your team. I could come here and be a real asshole.

[acidsmoke86]

:downspin:

[alon504]

[lefty]

Bench Finley

[dbreiden83080]

Newsflash to POP

[Don Quixote]

Wow. Not a good start. The defense isn't there yet.

[Anti.Hero]

Bench Finley


ASSHoLE

:flipoff

[lefty]

wooot! watch out tho. id put in manu rite now. same thing happened game 3

:rolleyes

[1Parker1]

Shit start by the Spurs. Lakers shooting lights out. Finley sucking for the Spurs as usual. Lakers defense is doing pretty well against the Spurs too. :pctoss

Spurs look lethargic while the Lakers look energetic. In this series the energetic team has usually won. Spurs better pick it up a notch.

[Anti.Hero]

Get Fin out. He is a liability

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Another poor start.

WTF is Finley doing on the court?

[lefty]

Newsflash to POP

Tim Duncan plays for your team

:lol

[GT1]

lol pop is scared, he calls so many timeouts

[Tradition]

Nice start guys!

[Septic]

Oberto just looked at that damn offensive rebound as Odom stood there and caught it. All Oberto had to do was raise his hand a little, wtf was he thinking!

[Anti.Hero]

Another poor start.

WTF is Finley doing on the court?

[acidsmoke86]

WOOO we are WINNNING, please keep all your prayer or whatever to help our lakers destroy the old and slow spurs.

LAKERS FOR THE VICTORY :downspin:

[pbandjnocrust]

Nice to see Finley came to play

[Dannyboy]

Bench Finley


ASSHoLE

:flipoff

I love it when spurs fan start to panic and throw they're team under the bus, muahahah! destiny is calling... you can't prolong the inevitable

[Tradition]

Lakers already with an early statement that they really want and need this game.

[GT1]

Let's hope Manu's lucky threes don't fall tonight. :D

[boutons_]

Another fast-paced game.

[turiaf for president]

:rolleyes

??

:lol:lol

keep crying about finley bro

[Mavs<Spurs]

Tim doesn't have a shot up or a rebound.

[lefty]

I love it when spurs fan start to panic and throw they're team under the bus, muahahah! destiny is calling... you can't prolong the inevitable

No panicking

Just pissed off


We are still winning the series :toast

[Deb]

Nice to see Finley came to play

Exactly which games in the last two series has he come to Play? He might as well have stayed at home.

[Bob Lanier]

I love Joey Crawford strutting around with his hands on his hips during the timeouts.

[Anti.Hero]

Nice to see Finley came to play

[Dannyboy]

let's do it lakers, send these geezers fishing into retirement.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Finley:

1 turnover
1 wide open brick

Yaaaaaaaay.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

What the fuck was that Tim?

[lefty]

WTF was that

[Dannyboy]

Yeahh Take That!!! Kobe!

[koopa]

tony is such a fucking bum, dude always misses easy ass layups


and this game is over, they did not come to play

[lefty]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuu in

[peskypesky]

Spurs looking like garbage so far. Hopefully Manu can bring it.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

It's not a good sign if Tim is throwing bonehead turnovers. He was getting doubled and Oberto didn't have his man sealed and Tim still tries to throw it into him. WTF?

[Dannyboy]

OhhHhH!! ginoboli, i'm scared!!!

[lefty]

Manu impacting the game already

[Mavs<Spurs]

They have four (4) times as many rebounds as we do.

We're already down 6, At this rate, we lose by 96 points!

[L.I.T]

Works for me. Get duncan going.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Oh, and Finley still sucks donkey balls. He's already played four more minutes than he should have.

[Tradition]

I really am loving this start guys. Comon keep it up!

[lefty]

FT

pray

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Gasol!

I'm about 10% body fat, which is about 2 standard deviations below average even for Californians. :lol

Yeah, 10% is okay.

Fark Spurs, wake up!!!

[lefty]

They have four (4) times as many rebounds as we do.

We're already down 6, At this rate, we lose by 96 points!

:rollin

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Lakers: 4 rebounds
Spurs: 0 rebounds

Make that 5. Hey Oberto, if you aren't going to score for shit, at least grab a board.

[lefty]

Oberto useless piece of shit

[turiaf for president]

good to see odom agressive! =-D

[Dannyboy]

Fucking odom being aggressive.

[Spurs Brazil]

Rebs and TOs killing us

[peskypesky]

Odom running rings around Oberto. Time to try Udoka on Odom.

[Bob Lanier]

I think fans of both teams can come together to say, what the fuck was that?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Lakers with 3 offensive rebounds in 4 minutes.

Spurs with 0 total rebounds in 4 minutes.

:vomit:

[lefty]

Bring Horry and Barry

FUCK

[LakerRings]

Fucking odom being aggressive.

good night

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We are getting KILLED on the boards. Can't win if we don't control the boards.

[Mavs<Spurs]

Now, at this rate, we only lose by 72 points.

Better.
