Game Blog: Spurs @ Hornets - Jan. 18

[cnyc3]

Spurs had 3 TIMES the amount of freebies from the line. pathetic.

cmon BR i know you're better than that. No one is trying to Tyson Chandler anyone here.

[angelbelow]

i think that seals his reputation as a defender ...

agreed. even Sean sounded a little surprised that Hill got the call.

Clear path foul!

The calls really went the spurs way in the 2nd half. I thought that jump ball call was terrible, and was a huge blow to the hornet comeback, because it negated an easy basket.

lmao clear path foul

[td4mvp21]

Glad we won, but this fourth quarter was . Thank God we built the lead up.

I don't threaten posters. I vent on the people actually on the court. I have already explained myself, but hey take more shots at me if you like.

did you even read my post clearly? i never said you threaten posters. you do it to the players.

Great win.

Sons, tonight the Hornets were like Ghazi watching the refs (Tyson Chandler) give the Spurs some love.

[Spurs Brazil]

Good win

[dbestpro]

Having two bigs on the floor most of the time has helped. Pop couldn't force RJ to play PF tonight.

[siraulo23]

a bit shaky in the end

but im happy with the win

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Not bad on tired legs.

[timtonymanu]

Great win although that 4th qtr sucked.

No RJ
Hornets 15-3 at home

Solid.

[Refocus]

Yay we won.

[HarlemHeat37]

Very good W, the lead was never really threatened for the most part..

[angelbelow]

Overall, good win.

[Bukefal]

Too bad it came so close in the end, but, we won. Tony did pretty good, well done.

[ffadicted]

Excellent game by the spurs despite the ty first 3 mintues of the 4th

[Ice009]

Not bad on tired legs.

Do you think the Hornets simply didn't show up though? Do you think the Spurs had a hand in that or was it mainly on NO?

I really don't know how good of a game this was because I don't think NO even showed up.

[Chieflion]

Any road win against an above .500 record team is satisfying.

[DPG21920]

Very good W, the lead was never really threatened for the most part..

Exactly. Teams are going to make runs. Even though it would be great to dominate from start to finish, it was a solid margin of victory.

[ersinert]

Solid defence until the 4th, nice win against a hot team. And free throws, its nice to see old spurs are back

[Ice009]

Yeah, you are right.


I like that Dejuan got minutes for most of the 4th quarter too. Sometimes the vets bring nothing and Pop plays them too long in the 4th.

[timvp]

Good win on really tired legs. Everyone should have kind of expected a bad 4th quarter. The starters tried to put the game away early so they wouldn't have to come back in the 4th, but the reserves couldn't hold it. Tony/Tim shouldn't have had to come back on the floor.
