Game 1 without Manu?? WTF

[Darthkiller]

game 1 of life without manu? ESPN BLOWS

[alchemist]

Timmy doesn't look good out there, like Parker said Timmy needs to shoot the in' ball.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Well, after 24 minutes, we're up 2. Let's just get back our first quarter pace and we'll be fine.

You mean making jumpshots?

[SA210]

LOL this guy sounds like a robot

[timtonymanu]

It's not even the 3rd qtr yet and the lead is already blown.

exactly

[crc21209]

If Pop had some brains for the 2nd half we'll see TP, Mason, Bowen, Finley, Thomas, Duncan, Gooden, and some Udoka...I would wish some Hill. NO Bonner please. He blows. He's ing worthless now.

[Spursfan092120]

God I love that I don't have to watch this game on ESPN

[ElNono]

Portland with 31 points in the 2nd quarter... they got anything they wanted in the 2nd... The defensive intensity dropped off a lot...

[Spursfan092120]

Come ON SPURS!!

[peskypesky]

and another buzzer beater by the other team! Spurs make that happen too much.

they seem to take pride in allowing the opposing team to make buzzer beaters. and it pisses me the off.

and Portland's defense picked up, it takes 2 to tango

If shots like that goes in, they go in.

[Spursfan092120]

Maybe the Thunder will help us out tonight and beat Denver.

What do you want to do? Try to block it and get called for the foul?

[Horse]

I swear it's like they get bored. Think of how many double-digit leads they had against la in the WCF last year. They have to get Timmy going somehow.

[JohnnySixString]

... NO Bonner please. He blows. He's ing worthless now.

Yeah, he needs to be put to better use. Make him a ballboy for the rest of the year. If he doesn't that up too.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

How exactly?

I'm sure it pisses them off more than it does you, but what can they do about it? A lucky heave is a lucky heave.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

No, it's like they rely on the jumpshot, and when they are going in they think it's a great way to play (ie. 1st Q), and when they are not they panic a little and don't know what else to do (ie. 2nd Q).

We are in trouble because we only have one real penetrator on the team, TP, and Tim's knees mean we can't play through him as much. Therefore jumpshooting. Therefore, scoring droughts.

[Horse]

I stopped playing Godfather 2 to watch this game, We better win.

..that came out? How is it?

[peskypesky]

Yeah, you're right. We should never play defense at the end of quarters.

[Spursfan092120]

Yeah, you're right. We should never play defense at the end of quarters.

I'm talking about a half court heave, dude...you can't get in front of that...
