Spurs notebook: Duncan's injury brought cheers

[baseline bum]

There's a lot of drunk idiot in Staples too and I never heard Duncan get booed after getting up from an injury there even though he has much more history with LA than he'll ever have with a loser franchise like the Sonics. Your fans cheered our franchise going down, so them.

I think the main reason Timmy stayed in the game instead of going to the bench to get checked on was because of the a-hole fans. Thank you a-hole fans. Enjoy the Storm season.

What an incredibly apt representation of the ass you are for generalizing an entire city and it's fans for behaviour you think you saw and heard on TV or heard about from other Spurs homers that did the same thing. I was there for Game 6, I was sitting in the stands among all those "evil" fans, I'm not making accusations based on what I could hear in the background audio on ESPN. There was one person in my row cheering while Duncan was down. One. His friend was telling him off, saying it wasn't cool to cheer for an injury, even if it's not that bad. There were like three or four fans in my entire section who were really cheering when Duncan went down and jeering him when he got back up. They were some of the above-mentioned drunken idiots. They were heckling me all three games for wearing a Brent Barry shirt, while most of the Sonics fans thought it was pretty cool, so they weren't exactly representative of the fans as a whole. I'm not excusing the behavior of the fans that were happy if they thought Duncan was seriously injured, I'm saying don't lump the entire city in with the hecklers.

As for the class move about the refs bull , most of the fans here have been whining about the refs all playoffs, even when the Spurs win. So drop the high and mighty crap. I've been one of the few posters here that has abstained from ripping the refereeing, I was just talking about how the fans were reacting at the game. And the offensive foul on Wilkins did look like quite possibly the worse call in NBA history.

Oh yeah, and I've been here since the preseason cheering on the Spurs, dumbass. I have the Sonics listed as my team so people will know I'm from Seattle. I've had the Spurs picked as Finals favourites all season, and I'll continue supporting them all the way to the Championship. So maybe next time you're patting yourself on the back for your oh-so-clever insults and comments against one of those low class Sonics fans, maybe you should stop and think about it before you stuff your foot in your mouth. Thanks.

You just keep on proving my case every time you start to type. Now you are calling me names in addition to trying to alibi for the classless Seattle fans and complaining about the "worse (sic) call in NBA history." You didn't stop what you've been doing, but now you are adding insults to it. Again, you are class with a capital "K". Enjoy rooting for both of your WNBA teams.
