The Spurs need to close this series out. A loss in this game erases the great work done on the road.
It used to be the Spurs were automatic in closing out series, but 2005 against Phoenix and Detroit and last year versus Dallas has changed that.
The Nuggets will play like they have nothing to lose so it's not going to be easy. But if the Spurs can jump on them and keep the pressure on them, they should be able to advance to the next round.
1.
Believe.
this is gonna be great.
go spurs go!
Spurs will end this series.
Wow....this is seriously early!
This should be a tough one.
Go Spurs Go!
I think Denver will be too rattled--by the elimination game, by the hostile arena, by their lack of experience, by Karl's poisoning his own locker room (as usual) in scapegoating JR Smith--and fall apart. This kind of game needs poise, and that's what young teams lack. I expect serious lapses from the Nuggets, and a dwindling of confidence with each one.
Also, more zone from SA. I loved it. It worked.
gameblogs starting 12 hours prior to tip off?
unnecessary
Some of us are insomiacs and night owls. Sue us for starting the blogs early.
Anyhow, let's kill these bitches. Spurs are THE CLOSER.
Nuggets confidence has got to be shaken, and when that happens it's up to the coach to try and rally the team...oh, right. Likelihood is, they come out all gangbusters, Spurs push back, Karl says something stupid and JR loses it and starts bouncing Spaldings off of his forehead.
Ok, I have been miserable in my game predictions every time, but this is the 20-point blowout. I can't be wrong 3 times can I? No.
Good luck tonight guys!!!
hopefully spurs start off fast and put the pressure on uggets
Domo arigatou Mr. Pistons < Spurs. If Dallas doesn't pull out their series against GS, I'd still love to have a Finals rematch with Detroit. Good luck against Chicago.Quote:

I encourage ALL Spurs fans who will be in attendance at tonight's game to be doing what I'd be doing if I were not in Sao Paulo right now ---avidly supporting the team, making noise throughout the game, especially at moments when fans are usually quiet. The homecrowd must create a constant buzz tonight even when the roars aren't warranted. Get loud, help close this series out!
sorry fellaz. ill be wearing my tim duncan jersey tonight, but you got it twisted if you think there's anyway melo and iverson are gonna let their team get blown out in an elimination game.
Spur fans need to be loud
Nuggs have taken their best shot.
The Spurs will be playing to avoid going to back to Denver.
Spurs and Suns will wrap it up tonight, then rest up and focus on each other.
spur fans need to be louder then gs fans
No Golden Sstate fans need to be louder than Spurs fans`
Allen Iverson thrives on chaos. Expect a heroic performance from him in a loss.Quote:

MANU TIME!
I'll be at the game tonight and don't worry I'll be very loud. My throat still hurts from last Wednesday's game.
Go Spurs Go. I Believe.
I think it will be a very tough game. Spurs need to do their best in defense. I just hope that Bruce and Tony will do a great job on Melo & AI, then I wan't to se Duncan more aggressive in the offense. So lets win this one and go in the second round.
GO SPURS GO!
no they both need to be incrediable loudQuote:

GO SPURS GO!!!
The Nuggets should have won the last game and Horry (as he has done to many a teams in the past) took the life out of them with his BIG SHOT ROB 3. Like I saw somewhere today online AI is not the answer for Denver!! Denver just leave your bags packed, cause its going to be a LONG ROAD HOME!!!
Nuggets most effective player is Nene. If I was coaching Nuggets, I would hammer Tim with Nene all night, I don't think Tim can score on Nene either. Tim would be like 4 for 16 with 5 turnovers.
Play Carmelo as starting power forward, put AI as backup, so he can shoot to his heart's content with Evans as backup forward and Camby as back center. This would solve their backup situation and shooting situation at one stroke.
Fortunately, GK seems too (self)medicated to see this winning combo brought to you by this cat.
It's very important to close this series tonight. I don't want to see the Spurs give the Nuggets any hope. It will take a better effort than the last game. I usually work at night and I'm taking a vacation day to watch this game. If Tim struggles early, I hope there are no more of the Tim sucks threads. Quit blaming refs for everything and think positive. Stick with the team and they will come through for you more often than not. GO SPURS GO !
Nuggets trolls go bye bye tonight.

The trolls will be back to give us grief about any hardship we have later on in the playoffs.Quote:

That Chicago - Detroit series will be damn fun to watch. My two favorite non-Spurs teams going head to head, but I think Chicago takes it in 7.Quote:

I think he will break out, and I know it's a longshot to say the least.
Let's show these braided bitches how playoff basketball is played.
There are some beautiful lakes and streams in Colorado for fishing. :lol

Nuggets with the record!:lol

Sir Charles: "The guys who did that study, I think they're jackasses."
LOL
BTW, it's based on percentages, not total number of fouls called, so the total number of black vs. white players shouldn't matter.
bad sign... charles didn't start the show off by yelling "GINOOOOOBOLI"
any one know what channel FSN is?
I like the crowd chanting GO SPURS GO before the tipoff...Hope they keep that up during the whole game!
I have my chicken NUGGETS from Mcd's....McD's Nuggets=SPURS victory over Denver Nuggets....

Typical soft closeout game shit. Spurs down big early and Duncan already with a foul. :rolleyes
I hope Pop is DESTROYING the starters during this timeout.
All right guys, let's get it together and shake off the nerves and get this bitch done.
I liked that Duncan was driving early, but I'd like also for him to make the shots. Good on Elson getting there.
Bad defense. Bad pass by Tony.
Come on guys. Settle and get it done right.
pop is dumb
finley is bullshit

Tim don't be an a-hole and miss a ton of free throws AT HOME during a close out game. You've been in the L for over a decade now.
so much for home court calls.
Nene missed the dunk
2 turnovers for tony already, calm down dude.
TP keeps bricking
nene with the knee block
TP very agresssive
Manuuuuuuuuuu in
missing free throws alreday
What channel is the game on on Sopcast? How do I search for it?
