Not sure..I just heard it.
Too bad about the blown call.
And we already knew that the Spurs were in major trouble.
Howeva, Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili are what separate us from the mediocre teams in the league who don't won on the road against anybody.
Fail all around, ploto.
Fail for being late to the party !
Fail for not recognizing that Tim and Manu are the players that make us a special team !
Moronic post (which is different than saying you are a moron).
Not sure..I just heard it.
barely a lead in either the division or the conference games.
I forgot which. I put it all in my thread which I started a couple of days ago-
it's got every Western Conference team's record, current seeding, who they are playing for their remaining games and the w and 3 way tiebreaker rules.
I think it led it something stupid like Come N Get It -
Conference record.
better record against Western Conference playoff teams is next. then better record against the opposite conference playoff teams (ie Eastern conference)
But, this is only on the supposition that Houston wins out which evens out the division or conference records. I think Houston is a 1/2 game back from the Spurs in either division or conference.
after that it is point differential.

ducks would like to have a word with you...
just checked. it's division.
San Antonio has a .5 game better record in its division than Houston
Spurs 9-6 in division record, Houston 8-6 in division record.

San Antonio has a half game lead now, but if each team wins it remaining division games, they would tie there, too.

also my thread that I started about all of this - current records, current seeding, remaining games, tiebreaker rules for 2 and 3 way all are at my thread for all Western Conference Playoff teams
[Shameless plug for my thread which was a of a lot of work and has a lot of information gratis ]

I have read ducks opinion about Manu.
On somethings, sometimes ducks has something worthwhile. On the subject of Manu, ducks has nothing of value to contribute, imo.
I think he is quackers !
Anyways, not that the smoke cleared, anybody else thought that was terrible execution on that last play? Did they even know what they were trying to do out there?
btw, Houston's last two remaining games are
against New Orleans in Houston
and against Dallas in Dallas.
I think that are likely to lose at least one of those two, probably against New Orleans. That would make them 9-7 in the division.
If Spurs win remaining division game against New Orleans (which is in San Antonio on the 15th) , they win the division.
confusion remains.
Winning wall.
I'm talking about the Spurs... I've seen this hand the ball to Tony on an iso and pray... and while I think Tony could get it done, there didn't seem to be a plan B... we just got lucky with the (non) call...
Just got home from the game. I haven't bothered reading through the thread yet but here's a few thoughts from my view.
Parker was mugged early on and couldn't buy a call. I'm surprised he kept attacking like he did. It's not even funny how much the drop off is when he goes to the bench.
I like Mason's agressiveness but he jacked up some questionable shots tonight. Of couse when you hit big shots like that I guess you're aloud a few jacks. I didn't care for his defense either but he had some difficult matchups in Garcia and McCants.
I'm sure Finley was ridiculed for missing shots but I like how he attacked the basket at different times and his defense was solid. A few miscues but he fought through screens and kept his man in front of him most the time. Of course the game winner was a beauty depsite the shot clock violation. Not his fault as Parker passed the ball to him with 1 second on the clock.
Thomas was a force inside. Had some nice blocked shots and got us a lot of 2nd chances. Missed a few gimmies that Parker set him up for but had timely baskets otherwise.
Gooden had some nice moves and was able to get to the ft line. I don't really remember anything spectacular from him though. Defense wasn't bad. Out of position at times but his help defense looked good.
Oberto didn't impress.
I wasn't thrilled with Bonner either. He hit a couple timely baskets but he looked out of place and was outmatched against Hawes and Thompson. Help defense was bad too.
Udoka was solid on offense but terrible on defense. And I loved watching Parker get on him from the bench to quick pump faking and then taking a shot or passing. Shoot the damn ball when you're open. Bonner did this a couple times as well.
I don't know what it was but Bowen did not look good defensively. I'm not sure if its a step slow or his habit at running out on someone and then watching them blow by. Hopefully it was just a bad night cause it doesn't bode well for us otherwise.
Houston.
They have a "better winning percentage against playoff opponents in own conference (including teams that finished the regular season tied for a playoff position)".
Screwed up earlier when I said Utah was only 1/2 game behind Dallas. Utah lost their game on the eleventh against Golden State, so they are still 1 game behind Dallas even though Dallas lost tonight to New Orleans.
However, if Utah wins their last two games and Dallas wins 1 and loses 1, then Utah is number seven seed because of holding the tiebreaker.
Sorry about the mistake.
btw, Houston's last two remaining games are
against New Orleans in Houston
and against Dallas in Dallas.
I think that are likely to lose at least one of those two, probably against New Orleans. That would make them 9-7 in the division.
If Spurs win remaining division game against New Orleans (which is in San Antonio on the 15th) , they win the division.
Keep dreaming. The Rox handle the hornets quite easily with or with out Tyson Chicken and should be able to beat Dallas as well. Yao will be playing. Rox win the division.
I got HD last week and have enjoyed watching my Spursbut I was wondering, is My35 HD too? I can't seem to find it
Im glad the Spurs won, just a little surprised we didnt blow this team out, but its good because when I left we were down 13, went to play ball.
Michael Finley is my hero.
The thing I love about Fin is that he was struggling ALL night, yet when the game was on the line..he nailed it. Controversial call or not...he nailed it. Ice in his veins.
F the ROX, win a first round playoff series then talk your big shyt you guys do every year. I swear from this board to sohh your fans are the worst (Another message board), talk as if they are the best every year and soon to be champs but never do shyt, period.
