Spurs vs. Suns Game 1 - Grades

[Kori Ellis]

If you were a REAL spurs fan, you would have said MV-TD instead of Tim.




See how ing stupid you sound when you say like that?

I don't even know what you are talking about.

All I asked you is if you lived in Phoenix and were a Spurs fan.

But this thread needs to get back on track.

I'm talking about the ridiculous claim you made that if I were a Spurs fan I should have started out talking about how great TD was, rather than whatever else I said. That's stupid. What I choose to start my post with has nothing to do with if I am a fan or not.

I don't care who owns the forum. Stupid is stupid. Never said anything negative about the Spurs that wasn't a fact. I'm happy to have an intelligent conversation with anybody on here owner or not, but the forum owner of all people should be respecting other peoples VALID AND FACTUAL opinions. Spurs have floppers. That's a fact. After I said that, I said about 10 pro-spurs anti-suns things. Pay attention.

Insult the owner of the forum... way to be as dumb as mav fan

We here in Phoenix refer to Mavs fans as "Maverpricks". It would be great if you all could help keep that going.

"Bowen played decent but he never got into a groove defensively. The matchup with Nash is an amazingly difficult one and he didn't do much more than someone like Parker would have done on him. Offensively he only had three points on two shots, but the one shot he did hit was a big one. He also gets props for pulling down seven rebounds, including a key rebound late."

Overall, I agree with your assessments, but here I strongly disagree -- it was when Bowen went out in the 2nd quarter that the Suns turned up the pace and Nash got going for a little while, and then again in the 3rd, I believe it was. Bowen's D is what kept Nash a scorer and not a distributor, which is what the Spurs need to do to win.

I'm not worried about Manu. He'll probably have a great game offensively in game 2 or 3, but he was crucial in hustling for rebounds and protecting the ball. The defensive match up is tough for him - he was up against Diaw a lot of the time and that's just an impossible cover for him.

When did I say that??

[E20]

Dude, you're in a losing arguement, I've been in a few of those myself, it's best when you just say: "This is the last response I'm going to make in this thread." And get on to someother thread.


also releases some frustration.

I think I have solved the riddle. Only one person on the face of this earth can have this lame of a meltdown.

Welcome to the forum, Mike.

11 posts, owned multiple times, making friends by calling everyone on the board names, and still not one single nice thing to say about the Spurs, as far as I can see.

Dude, maybe you need someone to explain what a "fan" is.

Sorry, I must have missed those. Please repeat them.

we FAT folks here in BORING san antonio actually have minds of our own ; and have our very own little names for those blue peeps up north!

I guess he's getting you mixed up with me. I often start new posts in a Spurs fan forum without acknowledging the win, but instead talking about the two times that my team got something over on the officials. Duncan and Parker combined for 60 points, and the Spurs stole home court advantage, but I enjoyed seeing Duncan draw a foul on Amare in the second quarter the most of all.

Well I guess that what explain it.

it's getting interesting.. enjoying from my office hehe

[QUOTE=Obstructed_View]

If you were a Spurs fan, you'd have mentioned Timmy's performance LONG before pointing out Duncan drawing a foul on Amare and you'd mention Parker's performance LONG before pointing out his flop.

That's what I'm talking about.

Yeah, I know. It's inexplicable. You are about a thousand times nicer than I am.

[RonMexico]

Suns should never have made public their intention to let Parker shoot wide open jumpers. His compe ive edge and anger come out and it makes him go off. This isn't 3 years ago, so his jumper is average to above average most of the time, but he goes off against the Suns.

You could tell with the way he said in the interview, "If you're going to leave me open, I'm gonna make it" that he takes that personal.

[TXan11]

You are suffering from what is called "cognitive dissonance". I have presented facts which refute your point. You are ignoring them, and simply keep saying I'm talking about the Spurs. Where? Lol? Where have I done that?

I said they flop and I enjoy it because it must be infuriating to the other fans. A La Danny Ainge. How do none of you get that? It's SO simple!

So your favorite parts of the game were, in order, Duncan pulling Amare down and drawing the foul, and Parker getting pushed down by Baboso, right? Seriously, where have you said anything positive about the Spurs? Are you really confused as to why anyone would doubt you? I'm very sorry for outing you so quckly, but you're just so Goddamned LAME.

[TXan11]

LOL you are utterly hopeless. I understand now:

I APOLOGIZE. THIS IS MY FIRST DAY ON THIS FORUM. I SEE NOW THAT ON THIS FORUM IT IS AN UNSPOKEN RULE THAT ALL COMMENTS MUST BE COMPLETELY PRO SPURS. NO NEGATIVE SPURS TALK IS ALLOWED. I DID NOT KNOW THAT RULE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A FORUM WHERE PEOPLE CAN HAVE DEBATES. I WAS WRONG ABOUT THAT.

LOL YES! FINALLY! THAT IS WHAT IM SAYING! Those were my favorite parts because they were bull ! I love having bull calls go our way in other team's arenas because 19000 people get upset! Finally somebody who understands what I've been trying to explain for 2 ing hours! Thank you Obstructed_View!

[Obstructed_View]

Sorry to derail your post, RonMexico, but I'd like your personal opinion, as a Suns fan who I know and respect. Do you think TXan11 has demonstrated anything which would make you believe that he's a Spurs fan?

[Obstructed_View]

You aren't a Spurs fan. If you are, please choose another team to root for. Either way, move on down the road.

Since we're talking about charges, I'd like the mention that Raja Bell flop, that was clearly a block his foot was in the restricted arc. Mike Breen and Mark Jackson showed replays from 10 different angles and his heels were over the arc.

Call was tough to make because it was the left foot, which was the "far" foot, based on Bernie's angle to see the play.
