I was just about to post that. LOLHow about this one: "Duncan did not get out of the lane once on that possession! He was there for 5 or 6 seconds!" [replay begins] "Okay, there's Duncan in the paint. 1...2...3... he gets out of the lane" [sileeeeeeeeeeeeeeence] "........and then dunks the basketball".
It's actually quite funny. You know, normally local announcers are biased, such as our beloved Sean, but these guys are just plain ignorant.
We had a nice win sandwitched between four losses. So we lost 4 out of 5, how's that for a silver lining?
Diaw is the big man version of Mike Miller, tbh..
True - misspoke.
That's so true. Another thing about Sean and Bill is that they know that they are homers. They call themselves out on it at least once a game. They almost always notice bad calls that go our way. The only thing that you can really knock them on is that they get very emotionally involved in the game (like us fans). But I'm all for it, makes the game more entertaining.
Do the Spurs really like or need him at that weight?
If he slimmed down to run the court better, would the Spurs lose a big?
Exactly. Sean would argue for all the 50-50 calls for the Spurs. But if it's a bad call in our favor, he would say it's a payback as the officials missed a few calls for us before that. But these guys, even after watching the replay, still tried to say that Tim fouled Faried on that missed dunk.
Yeah, he completely lost his man a few times there. I'm not sure what was up with that.
spurs showed great intensity late in the game unfortunately spurs lost the game in the 2nd and 3rd with turnovers and defensive rebounding. Spurs just got to go home and regroup, hopefully get kawhi back and start stacking up the wins on this nice home stand.
Not too worried. Truthfully, the Spurs faced 3 great home teams and Portland, who always gives them fits.
I expected them to struggle during this stretch. I didn't catch much of the game, but good to hear this team fought hard again and almost took the win. The schedule will begin to even out and this team is doing an outstanding job so far.
The Spurs do fight hard, but it seems like most teams make runs, even when down big. The key is to not let average players (like Gallo) go off on you and rip your heart out and go through massive let downs in execution, defense and scoring.
Let's hope the Spurs do in fact take advantage of their really easy schedule coming up because if not, the excuses will be tougher to come by and they massively need homecourt advantage to have even a homer-shot realistic shot at beating OKC (and perhaps a few other teams) in the playoffs.
4 losses in 5 games may suck, but the worst of the schedule is over.
27 games in ~40 days with more road meetings? Even younger teams would be winded.
Yeah you are right, it's almost the league set them up to fail miserably with that schedule, like it was a lockout season or some rushing the games. I am glad most of it is out of the way! GOOD LORD.
Unfortunately he never does that
Sometime it is like he makes a point that he is not a star.
("crap... did I score 20? I'd better stop shooting before the fans get excited ")
WOW!!! Tim looked amazing tonight. Can someone pull up a stat on the last time Tim scored 30??? Because honestly I don't think it's been for 3 or 4 years now. It was awesome to see this game in person, he may very well not have another game like this. He was truly dominant. No one could cover this guy, he was clowning Denver. Way to much for Faried to handle, or Koufus! I was praying he would get 2 more rebounds so he could go 30 and 20. He had a couple more in his hands, one Jackson and him got there the same time, he let Jackson take the rebound, and another with Diaw. Truly a selfless player. I got some pics at the game, nothing great. The pic of him sinking his 30th point on a FT is lousy quality.What a game. We have to enjoy this while we have The Big Fundamental guys! He is something special!
you are too biased, he has made poor decisions and had the odd okay game, in his minutes today was the first he's played really well in a while
Tim's gonna need a weeks rest after playin 40:02 minutes!
Good eye. I agree, this is incredibly encouraging.
I don't mind short misses at all. Ginobili's shot early in the season was off left/right which was concering at first, but I'm going to go ahead and chalk that aberration up to his ailing back. If he was shooting through pain, then it's understandable why he'd miss left/right.
I'm not too biased. I know that, as an aussie, you're trying to sound unbiased in giving him praise for his performance tonight, but the fact is that relative to everyone else's performances these last few games, he's done fine (The team hasn't performed very well lately).
"He's made poor decisions and played the odd game".
In his last 2-3 games, Mills has only played in garbage time and in garbage time, Pop plays him as a sg and relegates him to a spot up shooter role. He doesn't have the ball in his hands. You can't make "poor decisions" when all you've done is set shooting.

With Mills, Bogut and Kyrie Irving, a medal at next Olympics for Australia.
Didn't he say that he would like to play for USA?
Pop gave up last night in the third quarter.
then he would not have played Timmy the whole 4th quarter ...
Stupid take, I am not trying to sound unbiased I am speaking truth. Maybe you don't watch the games but for example his effort vs the Trailblazers was so . We all have bad games etc etc but he hasn't done fine, he's done average. I am hoping that changes after todays great performance. You are already the laughing stock of upstairs and downstairs for ing over Mills. Hes a great bloke and I want him to do well but meh team first
