In most of our losses this season, it's either been
1. TD, TP, or Manu was out - Six of our 11 losses have come when one of these guys is out.
2. We just missed shots and the other team made their's - no skill required from the other team for that to happen.
Is it All Star Break yet? Note to self: No more Spur games before March.

We got smashed early, but closed the gap to within a more respectable 10, but it was too late for the final comeback. "We didn't lose the game; we just ran out of time." by Lombardi fits this situation well.
It's January, we'll lose at least 13 more times, we're fine.
Although i dont condone the loss at all...but its hard to say a team as resilient and good as the pistons are going to drop three in a row.
we just got them on one of their bounce back nights, that and we have been flat for the past month.
The Spurs and Pistons both tried to shoot some shots they were supposed to shoots and also shot some shots they shouldn't have shooted, but most of the shots the Spurs wanted to shoot didn't go where they were supposed to go (unlucky bounces) and most of the shots they shouldn't have shooted did go where they were supposed to go, but most of the shots the Pistons wanted to shoot did go where they were supposed to go and most of the shots they shouldn't have shooted didn't go where they were supposed to go (lucky bounces). In the end, what killed the Spurs was having less points on the scoreboard than the Pistons because that's what determines the winner in most, but not all, basketball games... Just my $.02...
You take stupidity to new heights every day Jeff...Quote:

It was also Detroit's 4th game in 5 days. You know, our excuse for losing to Golden State.Quote:

Also, nice of Tony to show up for the game after halftime. I'm sure he had more important things to do for the first 24 minutes.
If Tony Parker hadn't had his head shoved completely up his anal cavity, they would've had a little better shot at winning the ball game I think.
TP in la-la land = Spurs loss.
No it wasn't.Quote:

Spur's January Phenomenon.
Nothing wrong.
Unfortunately. the Spurs came up with another bad game on national TV. Poor Barkley must have taken a ton of ribbing from his colleagues for being a Spurs supporter.
I'm glad someone actually realizes this. Who knows if it will be this year or 3-4 years from now, but it's pretty funny how every year the Spurs community just assumes that everything will be ok come March-ish just because that's what has happened in prior years.Quote:

I can't remember when the Spurs looked so clueless on offense. It was embarasssing to see Tony and Manu forcing shots or turning the ball over time after time.
