Game Blog: Spurs @ Thunder - Game 4

[Manu-20]

This 3rd quater is going to be make or break for the spurs they need to step it up and take back the lead going into the 4th if they do they win this game.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

BRB i'm going to home depot. I heard they have some really nice rope, and strong sturdy ceiling fans.

[Mugen]

thank god for the HCA

[mudyez]

wow...
Perk/Ibaka/Coll: 15/17
Timmy/Tony: 7/17

[Kuestmaster]

Bonner killed us. Don't play him again in the playoffs Pop. Ever

[maverick1948]

Whats new the guy never has balls in the playoffs.

None of the rest of this team is playing BB. Just going thru the motions.

[polandprzem]

Spurs are ed


They are not playing any motion, and OKC has Hakeem, Wilt and Jabbar on the squad

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

we fouled too much in the 1st, that started everything

[spursfanincolorado]

call the Goal tend and make some Fts be down less than 9....

[Spurs Brazil]

And we were doing well until the ing choker steps on the court. The run started there and never stopped

[EVAY]

thank god for hca

+1

[timtonymanu]

Well that sucked.

Disappointing effort from our guys. That almost counted 3 pointer would have helped. Now we're facing a double digit lead at halftime.

[Supergirl]

Of course it won't count...with these refs. They believe Ibaka gets to goaltend his way into scoring and that the Spurs shouldn't be allowed to make a run. Almost like they've been paid off to ref the game(s) that way...

That being said Spurs need to stop letting the BAD REFFING get to them and continue to shoot the ball, shoot their way back into it, they have enough good shooters to do it even if the refs call ticky tacky fouls on them all night. Don't let it stop their aggressiveness. And give Ibaka, Perkins, Collison or whatever other scrub they have trying to play C a good hard shove next time they run into him in the paint.

[Budkin]

reminds me of a series vs seattle or detroit spurs go up 2-0 then proceed to get curb stopmed in games 3-4 on the road

Me too a lot of people said 6 or 7 so it makes sense.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

The other guys outside of Captain Jack have sucked. And the starters have sucked too. Basically, everyone but Captain Jack has sucked.

[Matty2Cool]

spurs crashing and burning hard 2004 o

[Mugen]

Only silver lining from that 1st half is that Bonner probably won't see another second in this series. And if we get eliminated, probably not another second in a Spurs uniform.

Thank God.

[Manu20]

If the Spurs pull out the win tonight I will be very very surprise.....

[Shastafarian]

it would be worth the fine for Pop to call the refs out on this not calling goaltending crap, put some heat on them b/c this is getting out of hand

I think I've counted 5 non-calls on goaltends this series. All on Spurs baskets.

[Quiet Strength]

Well the good thing is the spurs have home court if they cant win in OKC. Gotta take care of home games spurs. The thunder are way too good at home. I still hope the spurs can get a win tonight but its not looking good at all.

[DMC]

No basket. Sigh. Pop better kick the out of this team. There is absolutely no fire right now.

Pop needs to have the team kick the out of him. He's the one who gave up a 10-0 run. Munchausen by Bonner

[Budkin]

Ibaka can't hit jumpers all game

[Spurologist]

Perkins 6-8 FG
Ibaka 6-6 FG
Collison 3-3 FG

88%

[DPG21920]

Well if okcs bigs continue the fluky stuff, can't win.

[Ice009]

I knew we were ed when Pop went with the exact same lineup and started Green and also subbed in Bonner at the exact same time. 10-0 run when Bonner came in is the difference in the game.

This is just total dumb coaching.

Fans on this board wouldn't do it let alone the greatest coaches of all time.

Bonner is scared less, you could see it all series, and a crital road game like this was not a game for Bonner.

Needed to go with your toughest players from the outset and stay with your mentally strongest players.

It's amazing that Pop is that stupid.

Start Manu in the second half.
