Game Thread: Spurs @ Rockets - Dec. 10, 2012

[timtonymanu]

Spurs are tired. Rockets are way over their heads right now. timvp didn't jinx, tbh.

We're still a good defensive team.

[Paranoid Pop]

Spurs play like a D+ half.

Rockets play an A+ half.

Spurs up.

I'll take it

Let's not try to make a moral victory out of an actual moral defeat. We're playing their scrubs.

[jestersmash]

Douglas, Morris, and Lin a perfect 7-7 from 3

Yeah, I don't see that lasting through the game.

^Look, you are not always going to play as well as you should on paper. Sometimes you have an off game, but if you can win those games you are in good shape because it will happen.

[EVAY]

Parker being abused by Lin

I assume you are being sarcastic but it would help if you put it in blue.

I asume that because Parker is 4 of 6 from the field for 14 points and 7 assists in the half, while

Lin is 3 of 7 from the field for 12 points and 1 assist.

Just sayin'

it's not every game that Lin has 13 points at the half. He's starting to look like Linsanity out there against Parker.

Parker is doing well on offense, but still being abused by Lin on D

I've said it before and I'll say it again: tough games build character. Things aren't always going to go your way; how you react is what separates the good teams from the great ones.

Look what happened last season: Spurs win 20 in a row, and implode from the shudder of losing one game.

An encouraging sign: the Spurs have the best record in the league when leading the 4th quarter tied or trailing.

Since when did we start counting moral victories and moral defeats in the first half of games?

I know Spurs fans just want the Spurs to blow out every opponent but there are going to be intermittent hiccups against even the scrubbest of teams.

[Brunodf]

Lin again

[superjames1992]

Wait, there's such a thing as a moral defeat?

[ace3g]

Duncan 4 fouls now...

[Dex]

Asik hitting the boards hard.

[TheSkeptic]

This hasn't been Duncan's night...

[Bill_Brasky]

Refs giving a new meaning to the term "rape whistle".

[superjames1992]

Manu starting the second half. Interesting.

Timmy doesn't want to play tonight.

[Boomersgold]

Parker showing De Colo how a real point guard gets things done. 14 points and 9 assists..

[AussieFanKurt]

asik better get a fine for that

[Brunodf]

Wow Refs

[SpursIndonesia]

asik better get a fine for that

what happens ?

[maverick1948]

Spurs better with Timmy on the bench tonight. He is not hitting or rebounding. Looks a little tired.

[ace3g]

recycle green!!!

[DapDaGenius]

Yeah GREEEEEN!!!

[Trainwreck2100]

Looks like it's the spurs turn to make a bunch of bull 3s
