Game Blog: Spurs v Rockets - 12/29/2011

[Spurologist]

Jefferson calling AND-1, doesn't even draw rim and doesn't get the whistle.

Boozer would be proud

[timtonymanu]

I hope Blair plays like this consistently. Having an off game once in a while will be acceptable but he can't resort back to his low intensity, low IQ play.

[Bill_Brasky]

Green tryin to earn minutes, dejuan looking awesome again.

[TE]

Blair has played a respectable game.

[Fireball]

Hopefully Pop realizes now that Splitter has to play 30 minutes ...

[Manu-of-steel]

The only consolation in this game is that we have seen the vast improvement of Blair. Splitter and Leonard played well,imo.

[smrattler]

Now if we can just go on a 23-0 run to finish th game... we might hae a shot.

Damn--the rockets have Hasheem Thabeet, too?

Does every ing team on this planet have more bigman depth than we do or what

wtf

So is Bonner benched for playing poorly 3 games in a row or is he being rested.

[ElNono]

RJ

[easy7]

I know people are going to make all kinds of excuses and there was definitely some bright spots (Blair/Splitter), but this is very alarming. Not the score or the shooting, but how tired this team looked 3 games into the season with short travel. Strategies may very well be altered due to this. Pop has his work cut out for him.

[smrattler]

I'm done. Gonna down this jar of eggnogg. Later!

He sucks. Spurs should have held onto Ian. He's showing he's at least as good as an Elson. He is young, runs, has some offense and can give you good minutes.

But I honestly think that won't happen. We've seen this ing act before.

You are right ... Lakers played like , but they looked good enough to win the 3rd game of ab B2B2B

[Fireball]

Anderson needs to find his shot

Yeah no offense to Tim, but it was very disappointing to see how lethargic he looked when he barely played yesterday. This definitely is the ugliest we could see out of the Spurs. Hopefully they build on this and try to avoid it (at least at the right time).

I like Greens activity, really shows off that fearlessness that Sean is always talking about. Constantly crashing the offensive board too.

[easy7]

The towel boy from the rockets is the only one in the team that hasen't scored yet...and even him might score after the game.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

we have been pownt
