Spurs vs. Suns Game Five -- Game Blog

[violentkitten]

aren't the playoff refs supposed to be a select group, the 'best of the best', if you will? it, spurs will just have to play that much harder.

oh well, at least timmy d's looking pissed out there. i'm feeling a 20 point second half from him

[ALVAREZ6]

The Spurs are so damn lucky. Can you guys imagine that we are only down 1 point???

Even though Nash and Amare are killin us, doin whatever the they want, and all our guys are Dazed n Confused, we are still only down a point...that is the only positive from the 1st half.



pop better tell the Spurs to get it the together, and realize that if we blow it tonight, we may not even go to the finals...

[myhc]

Oh, and also that Timmy guy.

[daragon]

Dang Spurs are loosing; but lindsey is hott!!!!!!!!!!

[beirmeistr]

Popovich is saving Manu for what???? this is an important game, coach! Leave him in the game!

[smackdaddy11]

of course I expect you all to pitch in with my bail fee.

The amount will depend on how messed up he is when you're done.

[Manu20]

Memo to Barry-SHOOT THE BALL(1 FG attempt in 14 minutes)

[timvp]

Tony needs to come correct in the second half.

The Spurs do not need a game six.

[hump]

Who gives a damn about Lindsey, Spurs count now

[WalterBenitez]

Looking at these stats, we're VERY lucky to be only down 1. Manu and Tony are combined 6-19, we've got 9 turnovers, and Amare and Nash are both going for 40. The 3 point shot (5-11) and our offensive boards are saving us.

My hope is comin back, but ...

[daragon]

Damn refs are giving THE S MS all the calls... DAMMMMMMMMMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[leemajors]

let amare shoot jumpers all he wants, let nash shoot jumpers all he wants. keep amare out of the paint and keep nash's assists low.

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

It's in times like these when you need a Ron Artest in the roster to go AWOL at the opposition players, the refs and fans. That'll teach them.


Actually hitting our jump shots and playing defence should be enough.

[Dre_7]

I think Manu's flop in game 4 is comming back to bite SA in the @$$!

[hump]

And yes, of all players, TP needs to stand up now

[HB22inSA]

Not very fundamental, but very effective.

[ALVAREZ6]

Are you even watching the game? They were bull calls. man, wake up.

I don't care if they were bull calls, we aren't playing so ty because of the refs...we just don't know what to do.


From the first 3 minutes, I was so concerned about Parker. I knew that he wouldn't be hitting his jumpers, that's a given. But he looks like it's his first time playing the PG position. He is flat out confused, he doesn't look like he knows what he's doing.


Manu looks sloppy, he just looks frustrated...and he isn't doin much either.

[daragon]

You must admit that LIndsey pic makes things a tad better! Right?

[Catharsis]

How is that not a ing offensive foul?????!?!?@!?:#@":JOT$@Dor

It wasn't offensive because Amare had already left his feet before Manu was set...in fact, he was still sliding when contact was made. That should be a defensive foul all the time.

Btw, I hate how more players are sliding under players already in the air. That's how people get hurt.

[hump]

Let just hope the refs cooperate in the second half. Ain't it a shame it has to come to praying for that

[Hook Dem]

Bavetta is BY FAR the worst ref in the game. I hate how he tries to take it over and gestures to the benches that he's in control. I live two hours away from Phx. If I leave now I can make it by the time he's walking to his car--of course I expect you all to pitch in with my bail fee.

I'm with ya brother!

[violentkitten]

spurs cannot come out of the lockerroom flat. they gotta wrap their hands around the es' throats and then ram that silver and black member in them repeatedly. ing spurs always play too damn loose in the 3rd and then have to fight their way back in the 4th.

pop better call a timeout and ream them if they start playing weak in the 2nd half

[Dre_7]

If not why is en Brent Barry playing more minutes than him in the most important game of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Because PHX is putting 20 guys in the paint and giving SA wide open looks from beyond the arc.

[ALVAREZ6]

let amare shoot jumpers all he wants, let nash shoot jumpers all he wants. keep amare out of the paint and keep nash's assists low.

Nash has 6 assists, and they're all basically to Amare.

[E20]

Ginobili has flopped on every single play[/whoever]
