[ducks]

[Experiment2100]

[ducks]

:00.2 SA - Layup by T. Massenburg
:00.7 SA - T. Massenburg offensive rebound
:01.9 SA - B. Barry misses a 24-foot three-pointer from the left corner
if horry and masserberg keep rebounding rose is not going to play

[myhc]

grrrrr....Barry not hitting anything against his former team. :pctoss

[boutons]

Spurs winning the boards 12-7, Spurs winning the game.

What an very tightly played game by both teams. If Spurs keep that up, I know Sonics can't, the we'll be ok.

[Jimcs50]

grrrrr....Barry not hitting anything against his former team. :pctoss


He has sucked every game against them


Hope we do not play them in playoffs.

[myhc]

Spurs winning the boards 12-7, Spurs winning the game.

Don't you mean, Sonics up 12-8? That's what yahoo is saying.

[boutons]

Tony Masenburg is playing well.
Manu + Tim = 4 pts in 1s qtr.

[ducks]

dude he is going to keep rose with his warmups on

[Manu20]

Spurs 1 turnover in the 1st quarter. NICE!

[Rummpd]

Joined in as Manu gets trad. 3 point play 6 point lead and a turnover by Seattle.

Seems ok so far on road up 6 early on - time to blow out in 2nd. Massenburg fouls hard on a Sonic = 2 shots.

MadDoc

[Experiment2100]

Gino 8 straight :smokin

[Rummpd]

Beno is in Horry to Manu up by 9!

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs need to win this convincingly. Sonics have a built-in excuse without Allen.

[boutons]

Spurs Killing them on the boards, Spurs want this one bad, you can see the desire in the RBs.

[ducks]

9:44 SA - R. Horry offensive rebound
9:47 SA - T. Massenburg offensive rebound
9:47 SA - T. Massenburg misses a tip in
9:48 SA - T. Massenburg offensive rebound
9:48 SA - T. Massenburg misses a tip in

talk about wanting to increase rebond stats!

[myhc]

I though Beno was injured? Oh well, good to see him in the game. Manu being Manu!!!!

[Experiment2100]

Spurs need to win this convincingly. Sonics have a built-in excuse without Allen.

Allen with the flu. :rolleyes I believe he has GonnaGetTheCrapKickedOutaUsItis.

[Experiment2100]

Marks is in, definitely no Rose.

[myhc]

Marks is in, definitely no Rose.


Wow, Malik is in the doghouse.....no, he's buried, inside a body bag, in a coffin nailed shut, 10 feet underneath the freakin doghouse.

[Experiment2100]

Someone want to remind James who he is.

[ShoogarBear]

Tim looks horrible. Maybe the worst I've ever seen him.

Jerome James is absolutely punking him.

[Experiment2100]

Why is it every team we play some nobody has to show up and play well?

[myhc]

Tim looks horrible. Maybe the worst I've ever seen him.

Jerome James is absolutely punking him.

I was about to say. Who the freak is guarding him, or should I say, is Tim sicker than we thought?

[ducks]

B. Barry 6 0-3
B. Udrih 4 0-3
D. Brown 1 0-2

come on lets get it together!

[MaNuMaNiAc]

no a good time to get sick I should say!

[myhc]

Yessss! Manu going off! Drive baby drive!!!

[ducks]

3:21 SA - M. Ginobili misses the second free throw
3:21 SA - M. Ginobili misses the first free throw
damm he is human

[myhc]

Timmy with the tip in!

And my body Dev comes up with a nice shot to push the lead to 10

[boutons]

Sonics simply being outplayed and outhustled.

We need to beat them so badly, nobody will be able to put an * on this game that Nate+Ray weren't there.

[myhc]

we need to keep it at double digits before the half.

[Supergirl]

Spurs gotta start blocking some shots. Not a single block in the game so far for the Spurs according to nba.com.

[Aud21946]

Jerome James ... Geez

[Aud21946]

14 point lead .. I'll take it.

[boutons]

Ladis and Gentlemen, behold one half of The San Antonio World Championship Defense.

[myhc]

Alright Spurs! We gotta win this by at least double digits to account for Allen's loss. We've got only 1 TO at the half! That's incredible!

[boutons]

The difference in total basketball ability between these two teams is amazing.

[ducks]

d they guarded james?

[Aud21946]

Seattle is sorta like PHX.. No Nash : No Allen = No Hustle.

[Manu20]

The most impressive stat of the half is 1 Turnover :elephant
Sonics with 10 :elephant

[boutons]

Spurs missing a lot of shots 43%, but the defense is making the Sonics miss more 35%.

Spurs still +3 RBs.

[myhc]

The most impressive stat of the half is 1 Turnover :elephant
Sonics with 10 :elephant


Best stat of the night so far. :smokin

[td4mvp21]

does tim really look that bad? he has 9 points at the half

[boutons]

I don't think the Sonics are playing a bad game or not hustling, they are just flat-out getting outplayed by a vastly superior team.

Sonics got 12 points in the 2nd qtr, EXACTLY how many points the Spurs got in the 2nd qtr @SBC which lost them the game.

Imagine the score without James having a career half in scoring!

Spurs need to come out in the 3rd and put this game away.

[Supergirl]

Tim also logged the only block of the half, right before the half ended.

[IceColdBrewski]

Seattle is sorta like PHX.. No Nash : No Allen = No Hustle.

Yep.

[Aud21946]

They are down 14 without Allen ....

[smeagol]

Manu zero TOs

[TwoHandJam]

does tim really look that bad? he has 9 points at the half
Tim still has no lift. When he walked to the bench at halftime he seemed to have more of a limp in his gait than he normally does. I think his hip is still bugging him. I wish he could just get some rest and let it heal.

Anyhow, up by 14 at the half - can't complain about that. Manu is on fire. :hat

[Solid D]

Not much being said about the clinic Manu is putting on the Sonics. He's got 14 points but it seems like he should have even more. Bowen was equally awesome in the 1st quarter.

[Solid D]

Tim off the screen/roll with Manu right out of the chute. Then he gets a block on Rashard. Good start.

[Aud21946]

I am not a Bowen fan but he is doing alright.

[ducks]

7:50 SEA - Shot clock violation on J. James

[Solid D]

Manu goes down awkward on a tough pass to handle at that speed and spot (deep in the lane). Barry coming in for him. Manu limping a bit, twisted right ankle.

Tony is taking over right now.

[myhc]

20 point lead!

[Solid D]

TP time. Going strong to the cup every time. Layup over James then a fastbreak foul, 2 FTs.

Tim gets totally hacked by Fortson. 2 FTs by Tim. It's all good right now.

[ducks]

can sonics hit 70?

[myhc]

Manu limping a bit, twisted right ankle.




:depressed

[Solid D]

It looks like Timmy got a clean block on Fortson but the ref saw it differently. Some phantom calls tonight.

Timmy is playing strong on the boards against Fortson. Fortson getting frustrated and physical, shoving Horry at other end.

[Aud21946]

What a shove by Fortson .. Zebra get involved here!

[Manu20]

Manu goes down awkward on a tough pass to handle at that speed and spot (deep in the lane). Barry coming in for him. Manu limping a bit, twisted right ankle.



I hope is nothing serious. :pctoss :depressed

[Solid D]

Fortson's got 4 fouls, time to sit.

[Experiment2100]

can sonics hit 70?

Screw 70 i need these bastards to hit 81. :pctoss

[Aud21946]

To cover ..... I didn't play it for that reason.

[Aud21946]

Guys where on the road .. you not going to get that call.

[Warlord23]

well I bet on 90+, looks like that's 50 more vbookie $ down the drain

[dn0]

put ginobili back

[Solid D]

Spurs not taking very good shots right now. TO, Parker was fouled but no call. Easy basket by Radmonovic. The Spurs need Manu or someone to create their own shot right now. They are shutting down on TP. Even Devin might help, because Brent doesn't have it.

[boutons]

must be discouraging to get a 6 - 0 run and still be down by 14 facing the 4th qtr.

[Experiment2100]

Put in Beno. We'll go white point guard versus white point guard.

[Experiment2100]

Barry for THREEEEEEE. Airball :depressed

[Aud21946]

Ok Barry, I know it's your old team ... but hit to f...rim

[Aud21946]

Thank you Devin for 3 !

[Solid D]

Manu's back in!!! Devin too!!Great drive and kick by Manu but Barry shoots an airball 3 attempt. :(
Now Seattle daggers a 3. Devin responds with a 3 of his own

[Experiment2100]

Pop using PHO lineup. Brown is the PF.

[ducks]

barry chokes

[Aud21946]

Zebras are trying to get invovled .....

[Solid D]

Radmonovic tried to knock Manu off balance on the screen but Manu's elbow came up and got him in the head. Sonics within 13. I expect Pop to replace TP with Beno in the last minute of the quarter.

[Jdspur20]

score???

[ducks]

who said tp and manu might both have 9 assist tonight?

[Walton Buys Off Me]

Why is Manu on the bench?

Why does Brent Barry receive a paycheck?

[Aud21946]

73 - 59 Spurs 1:05 3rd quater

[Solid D]

Spurs caught a break with AD missing that open layup. Instead Horry gets rebound is fouled and makes 2 FTs. Spurs are hitting the boards, even TP now.

[Experiment2100]

Horry with a volleyball spike block all the way to half court.

[Aud21946]

He is better than Turkgalou

[Rummpd]

Spurs excepting Barry have played too well to lose game - boy is he CIA vs. them or something or just trying to hard?

Horry needs to hit these FTs get up to 14. Done.

Is Rose a DNP so far?

[boutons]

S T A T E M E N T ___ G A M E ! ! ! ! !

[Aud21946]

76 - 59 End of 3

Nice Big shot bob with a three at the end of the quarter

[Solid D]

TP gets into the lane off pick and pop with Horry and clock going down. Kick to Horry for 3!!!!!!!!!! 2 sec. left. Nice finish on the boards and on the shot.

[Aud21946]

Rose is a Dnp

[Jdspur20]

finish it spurs!!!

[myhc]

BIG SHOT BOB doin what he does. Let's take it to the jugular fellas!!!!

[IceColdBrewski]

Why do I get the feeling they're going to blow this big lead?

[boutons]

Sonics shooting 36% for 3 qtrs.

Tim's hustling the boards well, Spurs +3 RBs.

[Aud21946]

Barry with a three.

[Experiment2100]

Barry finally hit a 3

[Aud21946]

Spurs up 20

[spursfaninla]

S T A T E M E N T ___ G A M E ! ! ! ! !

No RAY ALLEN=no comment

I'm afraid this turns into a "should have won", no downside for them.

[Solid D]

Beno, Brent, Devin, Horry, and Tim start the 4th.

Shot clock down, Devin creates space to Barry for 3!!!!

Tim reb. Barry drives and scores! Somebody said something to him.

[Aud21946]

Warning ....Warning ... Brent Barry with back to back three's

[Solid D]

Beno penetrates to Barry for another wing 3!!!!!

Somebody needs to stop Collison inside, though

[Experiment2100]

Barry 8 straight

[myhc]

Brent, where the hell have you been all night? Welcome to the party! :elephant

[Experiment2100]

:bang C'mon Brown

[Aud21946]

TO Spurs. Small run from Sonics

[Aud21946]

Because you an Eagles Fan! LOL J/K

[Aud21946]

The Big Fundemental .....

[Aud21946]

Geez, Turnovers ..

[Solid D]

Bad call by ref. on TP dribble off Rad's foot and o/b

Sonics are letting Daniels take this game by the reins one on one against TP

[ducks]

D Up

[ducks]

tp has 9 yes 9 rebounds

[Aud21946]

Eagles fan was right .. Zebra are helping the Sonics run .

[Walton Buys Off Me]

How come Pop is letting Tony Parker try and lose this game?

He looks like a fucking sixteen year old out there!!!!!

Get the goddamn hook!

[Solid D]

Daniels is playing with great resolve and energy. He's yelling every time he goes to the hoop and crying when he wants the call. Props to AD. He's really generating a small comeback, down only 14, now.

[Solid D]

Jerome James will pay for that one.

[Solid D]

Yes, Tim takes James baseline and scores.

[Solid D]

Spurs are iso'ing Tim on James and going at him. Another foul on James.

[ducks]

tp with 10 rebounds

[Solid D]

Tim top of key, swish!!!!!!!!!!

[ducks]

3:01 SEA - Shot clock violation on J. James

[Warlord23]

Attaboy, Tim! Show 'em how it's done

[Solid D]

Jerome with the offensive foul shoulder pick. He's not staying in there. Buh BYE

Beno from the wing for 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Manu with the steal and slo mo move on AD for the grind to a stop layup. :lol

[ducks]

lead back to 22!

[Aud21946]

Ginobilli is good.. What a move to the hole

[Experiment2100]

I need 5 points you stupid sonics

[Aud21946]

Maybe I shoulda Played the Spurs giving up 6 1/2

[Aud21946]

You should get 5 .....

[myhc]

James hasn't scored since the first half. Too much trash talking there, eh James?

[myhc]

Hah! And enter Wilks, Marks.............still no Malik who's in dog city.

[Solid D]

It's okay...

[Jdspur20]

hey were 77% from the line, not bad not bad.

[Experiment2100]

Booya 81

[Aud21946]

Barely .. But there.

[Jdspur20]

well the nba.com ticker is faster than me, lol

[Jdspur20]

well regardless of allen playing or not, this is still a statement game. they have plenty of firepower to play without him.

[boutons]

Sonics embarrased, 84 pts in their own gym.

See you mofo's @SBC on 30 Mar.

[Solid D]

The Spurs won every quarter, but the 2nd quarter was huge...23-12 differential.

Spurs came at them with 5 different player waves. Bowen was on fire in the 1st, Manu in the 2nd. TP in the 3rd and Brent then Timmy in the 4th.

[Solid D]

When Radmanovic was in, the Spurs went small and that seemed to work nicely.

[boutons]

Can't imagine a better way to start the road trip.

[TDfan2007]

Tim looking like TIM in the 4th.

If that dunk went down I think Jerome James might have killed himself.

But damn!! I lost 100 vbucks to those sonic bastards. They couldn't even get 91!!! Rashard Lewis played like shit, got outscored by Bowen!!!!

Jerome James was Tim's bitch in the 4th.

Again... Lewis with only 9 :lol :lol

[TDfan2007]

The Lakers game is going to be painful to watch. I mean they lost to the spurs by like 30 w/ Kobe.

No Shaq = Fucked Lakers

No Shaq & No Kobe = :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

[boutons]

We even beat the Sonics in the two stats they really AVG way above the Spurs

Spurs 3Gs total: 8 vs 4

Spurs 3G %age: 44% vs 31%

Spurs FT%: 81% vs 80%

A championship peformance from the Spurs in every category. Sonics were totally outclassed in basketball, and their cheap shots showed the lack of personal class.

[Aud21946]

Posted Early by myself .. No Allen : No Nash = A middle of the road team.

[boutons]

"No Allen : No Nash"

That's BS. Ray is not a sparkplug, not a play maker, not a pace setter the way Nash is. Allen may have made some difference in the score, but the Spurs whipped the Sonics in every key category and totally outclassed them all game.

A resounding, reverberating statement game, like the PHX and SAC games, that must give cold chills to any pretenders to the throne.

[SLOVENIAN 8]

Horry block: :smokin
