Spurs @ Sixers Mar. 15 - Game Blog

[Amuseddaysleeper]

We only have TWO players who are in the positive for the +/- stat.

Parker +2
TD +1


Oberto and Stoud are a whopping -10

That blog, Basketbawful is gonna have a field day with this

[Warlord23]

We're doing OK on the boards and actually shooting better than the sixers. Turnovers killing us; if it isn't one its the other

better now then with 3 minutes left in the fourth with another "too little, too late" moment


I have a good feeling about this game. I think the Spurs now they can end this by winning tonight and finally going home.


If I'm Manu, I don't leave my bed for days.

I think Manu will show up for the Boston game..

Go all out and destroy them, then hopefully Manu gets a combination of rest by getting sat out on one of those crap team games against Sacramento and Chicago..

Spurs can win those without him.

Do you guys think a W against Philly is automatic? They've been one of the best teams in the league the last 20 games.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Is it just me or is TD getting doubled less and less each game?

[T Park]

Oh, for sake. They don't look like they are trying to you? I think they are trying. They are trying, but just not playing well.

Every time we are losing you say they're not trying, and that's just BULL .

Please, go away and leave us in peace.

Losing to the Sixers is inexcusable.

[ducks]

Manu is as sick of the as we are.

do you no tthink tp, pop or duncan are not?

The opposing team knows they ahve the green light to foul him now.

Losing to the Sixers is inexcusable.

They were 16-28. They're now 32-34. They've been hot.

The problem with Philly is that they simply rely on their athleticism to win them games. I think if we can slow the tempo down, the Spurs can take this.


However, they are playing pretty well, and we all know how much SA blows at matching up with young athletic teams.

What did Finley do to earn his 14 minutes? If he's not shooting/scoring then he's not much use. He's 1-2 tonight and 2 rebounds. I'm sure he's the only one not playing defense.

It would be better to have Bonner, Stoudamire, or Vaughn out there instead of him. They'll hustle at least.

[Allanon]

The Sixers have certainly been looking pretty good of late. I think they beat the Pistons the other night.

Andre Miller+Igoudala+a bunch of talented young guys, couldn't be that bad of a team. Andre Miller makes all the difference for that team.

[twincam]

Dang that news chick had some huge knockers!

[duncan228]

Calm down...I was referring to his basket.
I've never said this team doesn't care.

[Warlord23]

If we drop this one we'll fall to 17-17 on the road. I'm having a hard time recalling the last NBA champ who had a mere .500 road record

I would rather have SpursDynasty and DazedandConfused out on the floor instead of Vaughn/Stoudamire (and yes, I'm aware that would mean the Spurs would literally be playing 4 on 5)

I think Bonner might deserve more minutes over Finley, but really, everyone on the bench blows right now.

I wanna see more KT

True that team is playing very well even scubs like Evans are ballin

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Which is worse, Vaughn or Stoudamire?

I hate their game both equally now.

Vaughn used to be okay, until he started looking to score on some possession...I understand the strategy of keeping the defenses honest, but just take the damn open J when you get it, anything else tryng to create is just plain annoying and dumb. I don't know why Pop can't see that we're better off giving those shots to the TALENTED players on our teams.

There are so many times Vaughn could have gotten the dish, and passed back immediately to Manu or TD for a higher percentage shot.

Losing to the Sixers is inexcusable.

What, the 6ers who've gone 16-6 and won 9/ last 10 at home???

When you say "they haven't shown up", which equals "they are not trying", YOU ARE INSULTING THE TEAM. You are basically saying they are unprofessional and don't care. Do you think that's true?

We are behind at halftime. Suck it up. And stop insulting OUR players.

I got skillz! Put me out there Pop!

There's no other option. Barry and Ime are out

I think the Nuggets would've been better off leaving well enough alone with Andre Miller. The Sixers are better, Denver is not.

[TDfan2007]

Looks like Tim's giong to have another rough night...this is really getting old.

HAHAHA, one of my favorite Kenny, EJ, Chuck moments:

Right on. The Spurs are totally trying. They do not nor will they ever take the court and not try to win. They are professionals.

That said, they ARE playing pretty crappy thus far tonight. But there's still a whole half to go.
