Van exel for TP on the last play? interesting lineup

[boutons_]

Spurs went cold in the 4th, Grizz got hot, Spurs lose 4th 19 - 25.

Ugly blowing of 15 pt lead.

I guess the Grizz will really want Mon night's game.

Spurs aren't out of their swamp, yet.

[Stephen A Smith]

We win 80-79.

I'd rather lose 130-120 than watch this .

And lose you will to the Suns, quite frankly. Enjoy the game.

[Kori Ellis]

Some positive stuff in this game whether you want to see it or not.

Manu looks healthy and was extremely effective. Finley played well off the bench. The Spurs executed when they had to do so.

There's some problems, but I'll wait until after the Rodeo Road trip before I worry about this team.

"Van exel for TP"

have you seen Tony shoot FTs recently?

When Tim scored, Tony had NO reaction on the sidelines. He looked pissed.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

lol

way to have the faith chief.

i'm sorry t park but the spurs are playing like absolute . dare I say even dallas and an amare-less PHX are ahead of us right now! (our record is fools gold) so yes, we may BARELY get out of the wcf

[CHAMPS AGAIN]

We won but it's disappointing to see them lose another lead and hope for the win.

It will be tougher on Monday night.

SPURS in a blowout on Monday

[Kori Ellis]

When Tim scored, Tony had NO reaction on the sidelines. He looked pissed.

Like I said. I'm pretty sure he's sick.

We'll see.

cause they still had to play D.

Cause the Spurs play the same in April as they do in January.


Keen observation there skippy.

SPURS in a blowout on Monday

Quite frankly, I think not. I would have to disagree with you on the purposefulness and motivation of this en y you call a team. They may not even make it to the weak western conference finals this year, quite frankly.

[SequSpur]

The Spurs have no offensive game plan. They continue to run isolation whether up top or on the side. No screens, nothing.

Memphis scored on screen roll over and over again, thankfully the Spurs had a big enough lead to hold them off.

[TwoHandJam]

well yeah, hence the difference between a team that will probably win it all this year (Pistons) and a team that may not even get out of the WCF (Spurs)

Let's not go overboard here. The Pistons sucked ass far worse in 04-05 than we have this year due to their le hangover and were still in the thick of things right down to game 7. Let's see how the season plays out before we hand out the rings in January eh?

What's the point of this weak moniker when you are a Spurs fan? I don't get it.

Quite frankly, your team might be better off trying to make the NCAA Tournament. They will surely be a wash in the NBA Playoffs, quite frankly.

Sure, lots of good stuff, no problem seeing it.
Manu being Manu, Michael hitting some shots, Tony hitting some jumpers
but it almost went all for naught with an ugly W @at&t.

In spite of Tim limping, he's able to play pretty well.

[1Parker1]

Yes, I'm sure Tony was pissed at the possibility of the Spurs winning the game.

[Obstructed_View]

We win 80-79.

I'd rather lose 130-120 than watch this .

You should probably switch teams then. Bye.

Go be a Nuggets fan then, clown.

[E20]

cause they still had to play D.

Kori said Tony was sick, but to say they still had to play D is the reason.....

[Kori Ellis]

Well I'm of the thought that when a team is ailing and still coming together that some hard-fought ugly wins aren't a bad thing. Sometimes those are things that make them grow stronger and more focused.

In March, I'd like to see some step-on-your-throat blow out wins. But right now I don't mind some ugly games.

One of Nazr or Rasho (or both) needs to get on track though. Maybe they should alternate starts until one of them steps up.

[1Parker1]

That is a very good point TwoHandJam. I never thought about it that way...gives me more hope that the Spurs still have a chance of repeating

[boutons_]

I think Tony may have been pissed that he was watching instead of playing.
He really wasn't very on tonight, anyway. No energy.
Grizz shut down the driving pretty well.

I was more pleased OVERALL with what Nazr brought tonight, than Rasho.

Nesterovic has gone straight ass downhill month by month.
