he should have went in for a dunk not some 19 foot jump soft
what is he soft!

You're kidding Ducks, right? Tim tried to dunk but was too late at the buzzer against Milwaukee last season.

[ducks]

I rember him making about 2 out of 5 19 foot jum shots

I want a closer shot maybe not a dunk but a 19 foot jump is for guards not duncan
duncan needs to get the rebound with 14 seconds left
he has no shot at it if he shots and is 19 feet away from the goal

you, Manny. The Spurs played like , ed up in crunch time in so many ways, looked like crap the whole game, and were DAMN LUCKY to get the W.

I suppose we are lucky to be 43-13 too?

boutons won't be happy until the Spurs go 82-0 and 16-0.

[MannyIsGod]

Boutons, don't forget to change your tampon.

tp hada of a game
especially how bad duncan shot in first half and ended up with 10 assist
they held james in choke
they did not suck to bad
they scored over 90 points
90 points for spurs will result in many w's for spurs

yeah we won but the game was kind of depressing. but who cares? better luck next time on those free throws, Manu. i know you are angry @ yourself for missing those 2 impt. ones.

[slayermin]

A road win against a good home team is a nice win, anyway you slice it.

Finally, we get our first buzzer beater this season.

Tony is flirting with that triple double these days. This game was deceptively close, meaning not really as it seemed. 3 missed FTs and a fluke play on that 3 pointer.

[boutons]

You guys can be happy with an really really ugly W. I'm not. But, WTF, it's a W.

The Spurs tried so many ways to lose this game.

[exstatic]

Without that fluke 3 pointer, even the FTs don't make a difference. A playoff team. A road win. Tim in almost constant foul trouble. I'll take it.

Bouton....you are the pits!!!!!! We don't need you!

[milkyway21]

damn, TD despite foul trouble TD had 20, & ave. 26ppg. in the last 3 games.

some of you were talking about strange playing time from popovich but tonight beno played his logical ten minutes behind an eexcellent parker and...
Brent barry seems to have a small tiny advantage on brown with 8 more minutes played.
Nazr is not a savior but i think could pretty much fit in the team. nothing special but a good role player especially if horry healthy

Barry makes better decisions with the ball than Devin does. I can see Barry getting the lion's share of those minutes with some D subbing for Devin.

[boutons]

Tony was again tough as nails. Amazing. I hope he get his Kidd-like triple-double this season.

And he has really picked up his rebounding. Smart ball, hustle ball.

[TwoHandJam]

Tony played a great game. Props Tony!

[Slomo]

Tony was again tough as nails. Amazing. I hope he get his Kidd-like triple-double this season.

True!

[milkyway21]

..i'm just a little bit scared everytime he goes for those layups bet big men. what if he gets injured? shld try more from the perimeter...can't risk TP getting injured, u know!

Tony was again tough as nails. Amazing. I hope he get his Kidd-like triple-double this season.

Amen. He missed by two rebounds tonight, and had another game where he missed by 1 assist and two rebounds. He's HAD 10 rebounds this year, and 8 a handful of times.

[exstatic]

..i'm just a little bit scared everytime he goes for those layups bet big men.

No fear. You can't play scared or you make the defense's job too easy. Both Tony and Manu embrace that.

[JUUOT]

i agree for barry getting the big minutes and brown playing when physic needed on defense or foul trouble.
so we have
TP beno
Manu bowen and barry
duncan rasho and nazr
for our 8 man rotation
and horry and devin in case of sepcific matchup
my only concern is really how well nazr can plug into the system before playoff otherthan that this team looks pretty impressive if Barry get some playing and ball time.

A rather chilling comment by Bill Land, the PBP announcer before the game. He commented that referee Jack Nies came over and shook Sean's hand, "but didn't shake Tim's". I'd hate to think that he holds a grudge about that GS bull last year. Some sort of incidental contact, and he went ape and either tossed Tim, or got him susequently suspended?

I wish the NBA would do something about Nies. He's OBVIOUSLY been biased against TD and the Spurs ever since that incident. Any game we manage to win with him reffing is a blessing.
