Game Blog : Spurs @ Warriors

He did not have a "poor game". He had a rough game by his standards, but he still finished well and hung in tough. I also said go to TP.

duncan and manu bailed his ass out....

i dont give a , if you sucked for 3 quarters and show up in the 4th....ur contribution for the win was good, but dont act like u won the game for us.

[Biggems]

Including this win, I hope we can start out 4-1 on the Rodeo trip

We have Denver, Boston, NJ, and Toronto coming up before the All-Star Break

[Thompson]

I just want to know why at the end of the game with Manu, Mason, Finley, and KT on the floor, we chose (twice) to pass it in to Parker to shoot foul shots. Especially after Parker had missed two shots earlier at one point, and had not had a good night at the line. Sure enough, he missed two of them.

Manu, Mason, Finley, (KT?) are all better free throw shooters, what the was that?

[2centsworth]

about as bad as I have seen TP play this year and he still fills up the stat sheet. Almost every PG in the league would love to average a TP poor performance.

Manu is back so we have a chance. Now make him disappear and come back in April.

I think I'll skip the game thread tomorrow because beating Denver in Denver after an OT road Warriors game will be very tough, and I can't stand the constant whining whenever we are behind.

We've been behind against bad teams in the 2nd/3rd quarters in most games this year, and yet we've won over 90% of those games by nutting up in the 4th, and yet so many fans still whinge their arses off when we get behind. It's getting rather tiresome.

He did not have a "poor game". He had a rough game by his standards, but he still finished well and hung in tough. I also said go to TP, in fact, I said it before you!

He had a poor game until the mid 4th but hung in there and finished well, I agree. He was still pretty terrible for 3 Qs, as was George.

The reason we turned the ball over all night was largely due to the disappearance of our PGs, which means other players make a lot of inadvisable plays. I'm not hating on TP, I'm not a hater, just calling it as it was.

Timmy, Tony, and Manu...


It's TMT, they're dy-no-mite!

ing is never not lame. Expressing dislike without cussing out players is possible, but one would'nt know that from this forum.

tx2step declaring that Tim was Turiaf's was especially pathetic.

I't always god when the Spurs are down though, cuz Shadflames pussys out and I don't have to listen to him anymore, til they win, that is.

Mason has gotten progressively worse over the past month. He needs to figure out how to find and take good shots.

Might hurt TP's feelings if they don't pass him the ball? He's still shaky shooting FTs when the game is on the line.

[Solid D]

The deal with Manu's play at the end of regulation was when Manu twisted to go up, Turiaf kicked his leg out and got Manu with it. The officials caught it.

The Bowen no call on Jack was very close and could have been called a foul on Bruce. Bruce got a piece of the ball swiping down and then caught Jack's wrist. Sometimes the refs call it even if the defender hits the ball first but not this time.

I know you are not hating on him, just trying to put into perspective how special TP is. Even his sub par games are nice, and he is as tough as nails. Something he does not get a lot of credit for.

[InK]

My god those announcers have got to be the biggest pussies in town. How about two offensive fouls on Duncan in the second half that led to him fouling out.

That was a crucial play with 8 seconds left on the game. You just dont make calls like that unless its hard contact. I agree with them, Manu wasn't fouled. No reason to make a ing fest out of it for the next 20 minutes regardless though.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

The announcers should have ed about Stephen Jackson not passing to the open man to prevent going into overtime.

[pawe]

Now, rest up and get ready to type again for tomorrows Spurs vs Nuggets game "bloag"

[Thompson]

Yeah, I don't know what his deal is. He's not shooting very often, and if he misses he stops all together. Is he running to free himself up without the ball very much? Whenever I see him on offense he seems to be standing somewhere outside the 3 and not trying to get rid of his man. I hope Pop gives him his 'shoot or sit' speech if this keeps up.

[Budkin]

Damn - what the can you say? This team ing rules.

tx2step declaring that Tim was Turiaf's was especially pathetic.

Lmfao, someone actually said that?

[Josepatches_]

I still don't understand why we didn't use TD when he was hot.It would be a easy win but he taked 9 shots in the first quarter when we were winning and only 3 in the second when the Warriors taked the lead.Maybe we wanted to play an overtime

[word]

Thank you lord. 20 turnovers and a win.

Great players stay in the game even if they strugle the first 3Qs, that's what Tony did!
A few years ago, he would have disappear...
He is allowed to have ups and downs, and overall there were more ups!

yes, that guy is a ing tool. He quit mid 2nd Q today, as usual whenever we go down by more than 5 or so. What a in wuss. And he doesn't understand why he's a bandwagoner.

I love that I'm on his ignore list!

Yeah, fair call, good point.

With about 8 to go I said I thought he'd score 8 straight or something because he'd been so poor and tends to own the end of the 4th when he's had an off game (done it numerous times this year). He didn't score 8 straight, but he did play very well to end the game. Props to TP for his clutchability!

mate he can up and down at home all he wants with eva, but on the spurs no up and down , we only go up up up and away.....

having the red light is fine, but as you said he needs to move without the ball to get good shots. seems like all his shots are tough. maybe he's afraid he can't finish at the rim.

Whats funny is people are gonna about this win, when its games like this that build championship teams.
