Spurs @ Lakers Game 2 - Game Blog

[boutons_]

Kurt is carrying too much weight. he couldn't keep up with this pace.

The Spurs defense looks pretty good. Offensively, it's difficult when it has now become 100% either Duncan or Parker who has to create anything. When the other team only has to guard two players, it's tough to score.

The good news is the Spurs should be down about 25 points with the way they played in the first half. Gotta believe that the team will turn it around in the second half and someone will get hot.

We Spurs fans need a miracle.

Believe.

Gonna take a miracle

[milkyway21]

Yes, he can't do anything.

I don't think so. Manu can do something to get us out of this hole.

1-1.
Make it Happen

[awktalk]

Sit Manu for the rest of the game. In fact send him to the hot tub right now. He's worthless and will be until he gets better. This game is over. Why not give him some badly-needed rest?

Manu is going to PWN the 2nd half.

With fans like this...

[SpurOutofTownFan]

I think this all comes down to manu hitting some shots - lets say he gets lucky and some shots fall down. I think that would mobilize his teammates. It appears manu playing like garbage has a bad influence on his teammates

[Allanon]

Yeah yeah we are old, tired have nothing left blah blah, we were dead against every team we played against right, you chuck

Nah, Chuck has been hatin' on the Lakers all year, it was Kenny that was on the Lakers jock.

They switched sides right before this series started. Kenny's likin' the Spurs now and Chuck likes the Lakers...but it only started this series.

[1Parker1]

I predict a lot more Finley/Udoka in the 2nd half and less spurts of Manu.

[boutons_]

Spurs 34% vs 54%, we otta be down 30.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Go coach the Spurs and prove how much of an idiot Pop is and we'll talk wise-ass.

You're right, it takes me as head coach to know that Parker and Vaughn taking turns shooting three pointers in the corner is a bad decision. But I suppose you're going to tell me that Pop didn't draw up those plays...

[ATXSPUR]

It makes me sick reading all the comments of lame fair-weather spurs "fans." Have some faith, and loyalty. There's no way we lose this series... and imo... we are winning this game tonight.

I expect a great second half. We got the terrible half out of the way already. Look for Tim to dominate, Tony to be energized, and Manu to play inspired. We got this.

For the record... Pop > Phil, and it's not even close.

And now will you kindly remove your head from the sand and see what the is taking place?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

tell me again why we traded Elson & signed Thomas? Wasn't it because of Gasol? Then why Pop chose to sit him instead?

He can score, you know. Just give him a freakin minute or two.

No, it was for Shaq and Bynum.

I think KT is probably too slow for Gasol, but worth a try.

[timvp]

Manu is going to own the second half.

Believe.

1/2.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Kurt is carrying too much weight. he couldn't keep up with this pace.

Yeah, because Oberto's locking it down when he's at half court when Fisher goes in for a layup

[polandprzem]

There is strong

and there is army strong

AND THERE IS SPURS STRONG!

Believe!

[Emanuel20]

Manu is going to own the second half.

Believe.
1/2.

Yeah Right!
And Clinton is going to win the election............

[still.focused]

Maybe they moved the nightly 3rd quarter drought to the 2nd quarter
And will come out in the 3rd ready to play instead of these miserable attempt weve been privy too all too often

[odogg726]

Screw Pop... the players on this team have too much heart to fold... even if we lose this game we can still tie it 2-2. No quitters!

What happened to all that "Spurs in 5" you guys were spewing 2 days ago? You guys aren't the only ones playing like garbage right now, and you're still getting owned. Lakers in 5, the sooner you accept it, the better off you'll be.

[ballhog]

lol, You expect the refs to call a foul on kobe? Kobe does not foul you, you foul Kobe!

[Deb]

Everybody on Manu, but TP isn't at the top of his game either.

[Harry Callahan]

come join lol...........

Chiefs and Suns. Losers. Games are still left to be played s bag. How's Shaq workin' out. The big turd is at Taco Bell right now getting ready for next season.

I am proud of the Spurs and their accomplishments. Here is a word that's foreign to you - "Overachieve". How about "Championships".

It's obvious one of our best players is injured. This Laker team is good, but not great. They are not getting the Spurs best shot AT ALL.

Now go home and put that worm on the hook.

[Anti.Hero]

Just go ahead and rest Manu for the Olympics.

This is a Spurs board, head troll.

The Spurs defense looks pretty good.
Believe.

Lakers are shooting 54%.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I see a huge second half from Tim and Tony, and one of the role players stepping up, maybe Ime, hopefully Brent.

[Emanuel20]

Everybody on Manu, but TP isn't at the top of his game either.

YEah but he is TRYING!
Manu is not even there!
He is watching the game with Bonner.
