Spurs @ Rockets - Nov. 6 Game Blog

[timvp]

No, no it's really not. The idea that losing is a "good thing" is a fan creation. The Spurs are going to improve to the same point by the end of the year whether they lose 2 games in the Fall or 15. If they only lose 2 games, it means they're already close to where they need to be. If they lose 15, they'll have more growing to do, but they'll still end at the same place.

Popovich coached team improve more after loses. The seasons in which the Spurs get in trouble are the seasons when they don't face adversity brought on by losing. It's just how things work in San Antonio.

Okay, I missed the first half. Who the is supposed to be keeping Bonzi off the boards?

Not Udoka.

What SJR said.

And damn, it's hard to type with a dog in my lap. He's sticking close, afraid Daddy isn't going to come home again. Poor guy. He's either in my lap or sitting in front of the back door waiting. And now, he wants to play with his basketball.

Keep attacking Alston, Parker.

[George Gervin's Afro]

boy we stunk in the first half..and then gave up an uncontested layup to begin the 3rd..

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Don't forget that Bruce Bowen regularly sacrifices to Satan and is the DIRTIEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME EVER IN THE LEAGUE OF ALL TIME EVER.

Yeah, I was taking a whiz when they were talking about that, only caught the tail end. Drexler started to say something about Pop and the Holocaust, but Worrell cut him off to whine about Manu flopping after he slit that chick's throat with the knife.

[ShoogarBear]

Chuck Hayes just Oberto'd them.

[SAtown]

There ya go Tony

[Joe Schmoogins]

i am feeling a big third quarter

[Indazone]

Adleman has gone 10 deep tonight. Only players who haven't seen any time are Snyder and Francis. I wonder if we'll see Francis before the night is over.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Tony forcing it to start the 3rd and makes the lay-in.

[Spurs Brazil]

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Chuck Hayes just Oberto'd them.

[Tippecanoe]

Okay, I missed the first half. Who the is supposed to be keeping Bonzi off the boards?

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Duncan with a FG.

[Joe Schmoogins]

look for duncan to be more focused

[SAtown]

Good . Spurs are attacking the basket more.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

You can tell we're definitely more focused. Forcing turnovers on D and not settling for on offense.

[easjer]

Also, whenever anything gets called on the Rockets, the refs are incompetent and whenever anything gets called on the Spurs, they are paragons of justice. them.

[ChumpDumper]

@ Drexler. Is amazing he ever played the game with such little knowledge of the rules.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Tim makes the FT. Down by 8.

[Indazone]

wow 35 to 15 rebounding edge to the Rockets

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Yao with a FG.
