Spurs vs. Nuggets Game Two -- Game Blog

[boutons]

"is this a must win for denver?"

Absolutely not. Denver has already "won" their trip to SBC, stealing HCA.

Tonight, Denver can play their scrubs, rest their starters, and go home to wait for to finish off the Spurs @DEN.

Or, the Nuggets could try to follow the Rockets example and put the dagger in the Spurs tonight. Spurs and Mavs would be effectively eliminated.

It's the Spurs who MUST win.

If the Spurs win tonight, they win nothing but Pullin Even and Stayin Alive.

The Spurs reward for winning tonight is a 5-game series DEN having HCA: D-D-SA-D-SA

As a fan of the 'bad' guys.... I know what we are up against. I can only hope our shots fal as well (both of our biggest weaknesses Game 1). Wesley has been great on the long shot as well as DJ ... post All-Star break). We should have Najera back who was a GREAT pickup as well.... He replaced our Bowen in the hustle category.

Let's watch and see.....

They can not "finish off the Spurs" in Denver, they have to win 4 games.....duh.

Talk about a long wait to watch this game-I have to work tonight, so the wife is taping the game for me and I get to watch it when I get home from work later this evening. I should get done around 12-12:30 tonight, that sucks! The hardest part is not checking this site, not listening to any sports type radio, and not turning on the tv. It's also really hard to watch the game on tape when the whole time I just want to FF to the end to see what happens! Damn you work!!!


respect the 'fro

[Jimcs50]

If SA wins, then watch it...but if the lose, then fogitabou .

[T Park]

That does suck Ballcox.

I would be too ansy and want to see the end, or check the score on a phone.

[ALVAREZ6]

Oh, that really sucks ass, Ballcox...man, screw work!

What's more important, a Spurs play-off game, or work????

Do the right thing!!!!

[Ballcox]

Yeah, it's going to be tough as well to concentrate on work this evening, but I don't have a way to get around it, and that sucks even more. As we speak I'm about to piss my pants in anticipation of tonight's game. You know how it is, I watch this team all freakin' season, and this is the time of year I live for, the playoffs. And now I've got to wait until I drive home (takes about 30 minutes), load up the tape and then begin watching. So, I'll be with the rest of you mentally, but will have to wait to watch the damn game.

Oh what the , I'll just leave work and lose my job. The kids don't need to go to college, do they? Go Spurs!

respect the 'fro

[themvp]

OK, before I go, I just want to say -> GO SPURS GO !

[nkdlunch]

GO SPURS!!!!!!!!!!

"have to win 4 games.....duh"

scenario: Spurs win tonight, then Nuggets take both @DEN
(Nuggets are 19-1 @DEN under George).

Spurs will be 1-3, aka "finished off" practically, if not mathematically, since they would have to win out Games5, 6, 7. I don't see that these Spurs as healthy enough (Tim, Rasho, Devin) to do that. Very few teams come back from 0-3 or 1-3 to win the series. Somebody could look it up.

Only 1 team in 6 wins a series after losing the first game.

And I bet it's worse than 1 in 6 for teams that lose the first game ... @home.

Dialogue tonight:

Whottt: Go Spurs, they are looking very good tonight, but where is Barry?

Sequ : this , Pop totally sucks tonight, I do not see any new plays at all...it is the same old

Whottt: STFU Sequ, the Spurs will do just fine once Barry gets into the game.

Sequ: Bite me Whottt, the damn Spurs are never going to win jack if Pop keeps these same players....where the is Vince Carter???

Whottt: Great play by Parker!!! Oh goody, here comes Barry, bout ing time, Pop.

Sequ: Barry sucks ass, his brother Jon is ten times better than that sorry hasbeen.

Whottt: Did you see the way that Barry dribbled around the arc there making Denver think he was going to shoot the 3? By doing so, his man had to get away from the basket, thus opening the lane for Parker. It was pure poetry in motion. I'd like to see Manu do that.

Sequ: Yeah, that was real nice Whottt. *rolls eyes*

Whottt: OMG!!! Did you see Barry fake that pass to Tim, making Carmello jump in the air??? It was awesome.

Sequ: this , we should be up 20 pts by now instead of 14...Pop sucks.

Whottt: Brent has not made a shot yet, but he has pump faked well and he looks extra nice tonight, don't you think Sequ?

Sequ: this, this team is going nowhere and all you blind homers are totally clueless if you think that this 25 pt victory means anything at all.
, where is my bowling ball???

I'm the same way too.

The Spurs are gonna get blown out tonight. The Nuggets will dominate from start to finish. Why don't do Spurs fans root for Houston or someother team. I rooted for the Lakers when they played you and i root for the Nuggets now. I am confident that the Spurs with their pathetic and boring ass style of play will once again under-estimate the Nuggets. I will never post on this board again if the Nuggets lose tonight. I guarentee that.

Did you stow away on Kobe's jet and then just decide to stay?

So you a glass half-empty kind of guy huh? Think about it this way, spurs win tonight. Its a brand new 5-game series w/Nuggets home court. Doesn't sound that bad

[Ginofan]

Supposedly Manu is coming off the bench tonight...could help Barrys' confidence and leave Manu rested and ready for the 4th quarter massacre.

[MeAndBobThrowChairs]

BELIEVE RIGHT HERE,RIGHT NOW.GO SPURS GO.ALL THE WAY IN '05 BABY

Or it could be the worst move in Spurs History.
