I remember it well, yelled my ass off upstairs when he hit that shot while everyone else was downstairs eating at the table. Great shot.
Best Christmas game for Spurs tbh![]()

That was a fun game but just a reminder of the ugly years in the Duncan era.![]()
The starting lineup in the playoffs that season
Tony Parker
Roger Mason Jr
Michael Finley
Matt Bonner
Tim Duncan

The Barkley comments on TNT was epic after the game:
Roger Mason with more game winners than all the Spurs except Timmy, Tony and maybe Manu
Oh yeah, we were not contenders that year or a few years afterwards by any means! Some thought so or tried to act like it but from 09-011 or so the Spurs were not contenders AT ALL, they were a second round exit at best in those years. I remember the 011 season to date, that year I thought it was all over and good run and Tim looked spent, thought any run we would ever have was over and then some.We were still fans and duped then though and thought possibly we were contenders. Those were dark years for us, but still 50 plus win years which most teams would call a success! We are spoiled.Yep, Manu got hurt and it was not a good run to be honest. Dallas was the one to knock us off in 5 I remember clearly. That was one of the worst playoff Spurs teams to date IMO, Tim was still near his prime but the others sides Tony (Who was great that year btw) were old as or just not very good at all anymore. I still can't believe that lineup trotted out for a playoff series and they were the faves in that series going in
. I remember the last day of that year Dallas came back to beat the Rockets to match up with the Spurs and the Spurs won in OT to stay at #3 I believe it was, the 3 vs 6 going in.

Not the only ugly years but it is a part. ing bro...that supporting cast
I remember I saw that game at a skating rink...shot was amazing to watch live, while on skates, tripping and .
off the bench: Ime Udoka, Jacque Vaughn, Anthony Tolliver, Fabricio Oberto
The Spurs were basically forced to play the Daye/Errors types at the time.![]()

And Who remember the Centerpiece Keith Bogans![]()
Man...2009 to 2011 was really brutal
shaq said once on tnt that after this game they had a Christmas fest ready inside the locker room after the game and he threw it on the floor since he was so upset after that loss! ahahaha
Thats ing awesome lol
I was in that building. Shaq passed me on the way to the arena in his black semi.
Heather likes Cox
Dude fell right off the cliff after this game iirc. His 2nd half of the season sucked.
My first League Pass game ... never gonna forget it
He was kind of like Danny, shooting wise.
Both are without the handle.
But Danny has D.
Mason just started out the season hot. Once teams respected his shot, he became useless. i think Green's offense was more dimensional than RMJ.
ha ha ha!!!!!!!!! i loved that !! i was stationed in PHx during the 03 and 05 years!! it was assume. i always knew the spurs closed a championship window for a lot of franchises during their beginning of dominance. Jazzz....Garnett and Tpups...Nuggetsss..Supersonics..But i absolutely loved ing the Suns up. i lived there for a time (nice place to live) but OMG they actually believe they where better than our spurs. I mean i could understand to make an argument that they could be better but they had nothing!! Nothing!!! There is nothing like being in the enemy's home when your team is playing and i was there when Barry brought us back in the 4th quarter against those bas s!!! love your Spurs man, aint gonna be a group like them again for a long time. purely awesome!!!
Good to know.![]()
