Game Blog: 2010 Playoffs Round 1 - Spurs vs. Mavs, Game 5

[Avitus1]

I didn't think we'd beat them in Dallas... Game 5 is a bust...

[Sobe_Kucks]

Bedtime.... ALready forgot about this soon to be loss. We gotta bring it in game 6!!! Plain and simple. Cannot let this go to 7. Bring Caron back to earth. Timmy has got to find his legs, RJ needs to show up and Manu has got to get back in rhythem.

[NewJerSpur]

Well, Cuban got his money's worth tonight, hopefully we get ours again Thursday.

[blkroadrunners]

True. I hope Pop doesn't revert back to regular season Pop and play Bonner and Mason over 10 combined minutes. Bonner has been from the start. Mason is below .

I concur.

[alchemist]

This move by Pop makes everything positive he's done in game 1-4 moot to me.

If we lose game 6 we lose the series, end of story. I'll bet my taint on it.


If we win game 6, we get have slim chance to keep up with the athletic Suns.

Prahps Pop.

damn brah, you're really really upset about this huh?

Me neither but it looks as if the players shared our sentiments. Pop too. He sucked tonight.

lol Bonner

[lurker]

At the level they're playing at, they might have a let down come Game 6 from the additional minutes, especially going on the road. They took Game 1 back that was after a 3-day layoff and they still had lapses that the refs made up for. Against this lineup, I'm just saying that I think you look to get your guys geared up for Game 6.

Ehh. If the game was tomorrow night, maybe the minutes tonight would effect them. If the Mavs suck in game 6 it won't be because they're tired, it will be because Pop stopped trying to out-re Carlisle and the Spurs actually played with some effort.

[blkroadrunners]

Is Hairston on the playoff roster?

No.

[MavDynasty]

I can see the Mavs pulling out a tough Game 6 only to get blown the out in Game 7 on their homecourt

[Cant_Be_Faded]

So pissed off.
At Pop. At the starters' energy to star the game.

At the starters' energy to start the 3rd.

At Mason's worthlessness.

At Bonner's choke ass ass

FURIOUS

[Capt Bringdown]

Well, we've let the Najera rough up our players in 2 straight games.
Why won't we respond?

Have you guys been reading what we've been saying about Pop most of the season? Has Carlisle been doing the same stuff?

[Ice009]

Manu should try a face mask IMO. That plastic thing is hurting his game. I think a clear mask would be better.

[BanditHiro]

at least the spurs managed to clear the stands!

[stealthjbravo]

What a bunch of limp POS players

[NewJerSpur]

Not saying it will be the deciding factor, but going on the road is a daunting enough task as is. I'd be more for allowing the guys to conserve all the energy they can and not risk anything going further.

[Ice009]

Mavs killing us. Everyone is getting involved for Dallas. Roddy hitting a three now.

[KuntryDude]

Bogans can't even produce w/ the scrubs

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason

[BanditHiro]

[NewJerSpur]

[blkroadrunners]

At least Mason did something right.

I don't blame them...Spurs don't deserve airtime at this point.

[Crookshanks]

Wow - this is one ugly game. It's like they decided in the 1st quarter to just this one to the Mavs. No effort whatsoever to win this game. I hate it when they do this crap. Pop knew what worked in the last 3 games - but he decides to screw with the lineup and totally lose the game right from the start. Oh well - on to Thursday.
