Spurs @ Hawks - Nov. 20 Game Blog

[Armando]

Maybe the Mavs will be better off playing all 82 games with the Spurs. It seems to me they only get up for them.

[Spurologist]

The Mavs will wake up in the 2nd half.

your mvp has 6 pts at the half.

[Sweetey]

according to NBA.com live update... there's still 5:30 left in the game...

I'm talking about the Spurs game

[Spurologist]

Watching a live look-in on NBATV of the knicks-warriors game and Isiah Thomas looks depressed.

[TampaDude]

Yet another solid road win for the Spurs. NEXT!

Couple things - we need to do some tweaking on some areas of our play, secondly, we need Horry back now, Udoka is kind of clueless on the defensive rotations but he isn't horrible.

third, I think it was TP himself who took Manu out of his rythm when he selfishly started going to the basket during the second quarter. He basically didn't pass the ball to Ginobili for 4-5 consecutive plays. Kind of sad.

you're joking right? tell me you're joking! pleeeaase!

[SpurOutofTownFan]

I know...but if he keeps the elite level of play up that he showcased in the Finals...you never know.

Come on, you are better than that. TP had no player in front of him against the Cavs. With a capable PG on the other side, he wouldn't have had that kind of impact.

Well, I watched the game and that's what happened. No, I'm not joking.

That's not the point. I'm finding excuses for the vbookie.

[timvp]

Parker goes for 31 and 9 while making 13-of-20 shots and the Church of Manu calls him a ball hog.

Classic.

I really think Ginobili couldn't care less when the Spurs were up 20 while TP was doing it.
They're not competing with each other, I'm pretty sure it's relaxing to have two other guys alternate with you in making comfortable wins.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

I'm sure he couldn't but I do. That's my opinion.

Don't belong to them. I'm just calling it as I saw it. Classic.

Second Quarter
9:02 Tony Parker enters the game for Jacque Vaughn 36-23
8:48 Manu Ginobili makes 25-foot three point jumper (Tony Parker assists) 39-23
8:34 Michael Finley enters the game for Manu Ginobili



Sometimes I wonder if these Manu fans even care if the Spurs win or lose.

Okay,
I 'm pretty sure most people were happy for the win, though.

IMO I think Tony just likes to play his best and score , score, it's hard to complain when he's playing for your team and dishing out 9 dimes.

I don't know if SpursFanOutofTown is a Manu homer.

Funny how a few bad irrational apples in the Tony, Manu camps, create such a re ed at ude on the boards.

[Armando]

Whose MVP? I am just saying that the Mavs will play better in the 2nd half.
