seriously????
Spurs airplane has had an incident in NO and Spurs are still there. Hotels are full in NO so the team will sleep in the airplane.
They will take a flight to LA at 7:00 am.
F*** champion air.

Oh darn, i guess we have to steal one in LA in even a harder way than it already is.
You gotta be ing kidding me. Hopefully they have some comfy damn seats in that charter jet.
All the hotels are full in NO?
WTF?
is Holt being cheap again?
I don't know how comfy that is, but I think it'd be a pretty funny experience. Mini-Rodeo Road Trip type bonding?
when you pay shareholders before upkeep sometimes airplanes stay on the flour
So who else thinks Timmy is going to be putting some peoples hands in bowls of warm water, freezing some peoples underwear, etc? lol
Wow... just, wow...
How many hotels are there in NO?
Well probably not every hotel was completely booked. But they probably couldn't find a decent one with as many rooms as they'd need. I can't imagine sleeping in the plane is that comfortable, but it's not like they are cramped in coach seats.
Hopefully they'll be able to sleep all day when they get to L.A. and then just do a walk thru practice in the evening.
Ms. Ellis, I think it's time to update your sig.
Hopefully the Spurs will have sore necks, sore backs, and jet lag.
Spurs are tough though. We'll need all the advantage we can get.
So far, not a good omen for the Spurs.

is this the equivalent of spurs fans wanting kobe to get a fever and not play?
Didn't they do that stuff in 2005?
Then when everything settles down, Robert Horry gathers them all around so they can all swap dirty ghost stories with their flashlights as they all doze off in their sleeping bags.
Plane is on the fritz, Spurs couldn't go to LA.

Spurs are retained in New-Orleans.
Spurs lost their smile. The finalists of the western conference are immobilized at NO's airport.
The defending champions were headed to LA to play Game 1 of the WCF, right after the game. Bad luck, their plane broke down.
And to top that, all hotels in NO appear to be full.
"what's happening is incredible!", Tony explains. It's 2 AM (9 in France). "We're doomed to spend the night in the plane ! Pop just anounced it.
To prepare a WCF, there's nothing better !"
Spurs should take the first plane at 7 AM and will consequently have less than 48h to prepare the meeting with the Lakers.

There's an Hilton next to NO's Airport.
C'mon Pete !
I'm sure it's booked. They aren't skipping hotels because they are cheap. There's just probably not a decent one available nearby with enough rooms open.
Championships are hard.
Example #432,793
Nah.
I just call them. There are plenty of rooms avalaible !
In the E-N Spurs notebook they said that there is a convention of the National Cable and Telecommunications Association in NO.
It's not really surprising that Spurs haven't been able to find a decent and not to far from the airport hotel with enough rooms for the team.
Who cares about cable and telecommunications in our modern world ?
Put those suited geeks in the plane and our guys in their beds.
Damnit !
Probaly David $tern broke that plane, I told you I don't trust that man.
Good thing the plane broke down on the ground rather than in the air.
Two words: Bourbon Street.
