GO SPURS GO!

Game Preview: http://spurstalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=111019


Ah, 4 games in a row - it feels good! With the team finally complete, minus the Savior - the Spurs are on a roll coming into Houston. After an explosive game from the Gay-Mayo combo, the Spurs will be facing the big 3.5 out of Houston in the second game of the I-10 rivalry series.


Team is Everything, believe!

As a Chinese fan, it was the first time after Houston's last game against Pacers to hear Yao say dirty about his teammates or coach ever to Chinese media.

Now as reported, he and Adelman are both unsatisfied with each other. Fun to watch the current Rockets game.

Go Matty! Go Georgi!

I say trade Yao for Parker.

[bdictjames]

Ouch. The thought about losing Parker makes me cringe.

[Matchman]

so all of the spurs' big three will be playing?

Yes, but I assume Parker and Ginobili could still have somewhat limited minutes.

Matchman didn't want to hear that.

BTW D228 I, for one, appreciate all those McDonald articles ( and the other ones) you post. It keeps me from digging for them. Too bad you live in California. I think you'd really like living here and seeing the games live and in person. You could even meet some of the posters at the GTG's or games.

[duncan228]

Thanks for the kind words.

[urunobili]

VERY important game for us tonight... a W would send a message not only to the rest of the division but to the conference and the league overall...

[urunobili]

not this time

[xellos88330]

I hope the Spurs kick the crap out of the Rockets. (Statement game maybe???)

[Allanon]

is tmac playing?
if not, easy win for the spurs.

T-Mac probably won't be playing tonight. Shane Battier is back for this game in his place.

Rockets starting lineup (my guess)

Rafer Alston
Shane Battier
Ron Artest
Luis Scola
Yao Ming

[HarlemHeat37]

McGrady game-time decision, Battier is playing..

[SpursDynasty]

Tonight should be an easy W. Houston is usually a team we can go out and expect to beat. With our Big Three intact and our strong supporting cast, tonight's win should be easy.

[Reck]

Tonight should be an easy W. Houston is usually a team we can go out and expect to beat. With our Big Three intact and our strong supporting cast, tonight's win should be easy.

It will be a close game throughout. Rockets will probably be leading the way while we keep the game close. It might even come down to a buzzer beater or some crazy play that wins this game.

Spurs winning streak is at stake here.
