Can someone tell me how I can put GRIM1 on my IGNORE LIST for future reference. He totally ruined the commentary I was trying to following by SolidD and others in this thread

SASPURS, we are now 32-9 after tonight's very lucky win.
We r 32-9, and Grizz up 10!! 4:42 left!........i hope no one minds that i am sort of turning this into a pho-mem thread!
we're 32-9...
Well good night everyone. PHEW! Close one. Glad to come out on the winning end this time.
AMare with 5 fouls! grizz up 11, with 4 min left!
Btw, how was it a lucky win?
Because Tim never steps it up and on the last play "he did".
The game was over and the Spurs won, thanks to Parker, I don't see how it's lucky.
I don't think Duncan is the problem. He will have off periods, but overall the guy is Mr. Consistent. It's the team as a whole that seems to screw up way more than they should. Especially when it comes to playing teams perceived as "easy". They always give a less than strong effort and it shows, like tonight. Tim needs to work on his free throws and getting the rest of the team on the same page night in AND night out.

How was this a lucky win, Sense?
Well, seeing how the Spurs managed to lose a 10 pt lead in about 2 minutes (a la Houston game 1), and the Spurs were up only by one, Brand could have made that shot, or some other Clipper could have, and they would have won---a close, yet lucky game. Lucky that Tony made that last shot and lucky that Elton missed that last shot. Has nothing to do with Duncan.
BTW, Pheonix's weak bench is showing through these losses. If they had a more solid bench, they could have continued their winning streak. Their bench is doing nothing for them in these losses. Tonight's game, for example, bench has scored a total of 6 pts...all by Voshkul (whoever the heck he is).
a couple of huge mistake down the stretch.
1. I appreciate his effort, but Rasho had no business going for the ball on the entry pass to Kaman on the low block, and get a foul.
2. there was no need for Manu to play so tight he got tangled up with his man and risk a foul, even if the foul was questionable.
DON'T FOUL!! and those two did.
A great win, offense totally collapsed, missed a dozen straight FGs, layups included, but held on to win.
this was a very good test.
manu was huge in crunch time, 4/4 FTs, driving and kicking out to Tony, and then the final defensive RB when a putback or tip by Clips would have won it.
It's only a good "test" if they figure out how not to repeat those mistakes. So far, they haven't passed that "test". If they do...no team should be able to beat the Spurs given their deepness of talent.
Voshkul started, they had 13 points from the bench, 7 from casey and 6 from smush parker, Hunter and outlaw played a total of 13 min both didn't attempt a shot....but you're right when the guy you sign a 10 day contract to comes flies to phoenix today and comes in and scores 6 points to the other 3 combined 7 you know you don't have a good bench...Brian C. better be on the phone trying to make a deal....See ya friday...nash should be back so there should be no excuses....Good win for yaBTW, Pheonix's weak bench is showing through these losses.

clippers probaly played their best game of the year.
after all those debates about Spurs might lose/Suns winning I AM HAPPY THE SPURS WON AND THEY ARE NOW AT THE TOP OF THE WESTERN CONFERENCE:
STANDING:
Spurs 32-9-1st (Western/Over-All)
Suns 31-9-2nd
