um... freethrows..no... rebounds... no...steals...nope....assists.. yes. points in the paint.. yes. having balls...no
Bowen owned Ray Allen in the fourth quarter.
The Sonics final play, Bowen was at his finest. He played incredible one-on-one D and Tim didn't even step up and help.
After that play, did anyone else see Ray say, " you, mother er" ?
OWNED!!
There's got to be more positives in this game for the Spurs ...
um... freethrows..no... rebounds... no...steals...nope....assists.. yes. points in the paint.. yes. having balls...no
Positives?
Spurs stayed healthy and can retaliate in game four.
I agree with you Timvp, and they have alittle more motivation by fatass james comments.
The Sonics really have little reason to feel good about themselves.
The perimeter defense by the Spurs was awe-inspiring and the hustle for 48 minutes was exemplary. The Spurs had the 5th worst Opp. 3-Pt% in the regular season and now they are the best (#1) in the Playoffs. That's encouraging.
Help on the pick and roll, so Jerome James doesn't look like an all-star
Manu usually never misses that many free throws (especially in clutch time) and he didn't get murdered tonight.
Bowen's defense was awesome.
Barry hit some important shots.
LOL kori are you jumping onto the official Ownage Squad?
Glad to see you looking at positive side of things.
I totally missed Ray say that....damn i wish i had heard it....oh well.
I still feel like Duncan was holding back in the first through third quarters and was waiting for the fourth....then things just went wrong as a whole. He'll store that Potential Energy and release it in G4.
Its like 2003 where all series spurs won 4-2...now spurs will got it in 4-1...WCF...Spurs vs. Dallas...De javu!
Spurs vs. Denver- 4-1
Spurs vs. Sonics- 4-1
Spurs vs. Dallas- 4-1
Spurs vs. Pistons- 4-1
Destination: Finals!
I thought Duncan's defense was very good, except for getting eaten alive on the pick and roll, which is probably an adjustment the Sonics should get some credit for since nobody stopped it at any point all night.
Bowen was so good I actually don't feel bad about the loss. From an entertainment standpoint I think it would have bothered me more if the Spurs won and Bowen got abused by Ray. Bowen is so in Ray's head the rest of the series will be fun to watch. I was actually hoping they would call a T on Ray when he shoved Bowen. It would have been great to tie the game on a technical that Bowen drew on Ray.
The coffee smelled good.
The Spurs played bad and still lost by just 1 point... I hope they will come back fired up... It would suck if seattle would win game 4.
another positive : tim almost breaks yao's record of getting dunked on in one game
IT'S ABOUT TIME KORI
1. DUNCAN -only 1 turnover
2. TP- only w/ 2 turnover
3. it was NOT a blow-out road game loss(1 pt advantage)
4. Allen was held to JUST 6-23=26% FG

Allen trying to elude Bruce Bowen.

The only real positive for this game is it is OVER
Duncanoypi, you reading my mind? Because that is what I was thinking after the Nuggets series.
The Spurs get yet another two full days of rest to get healthier and to stew about the physical play, and get up for Game 4.
because this is a championship mindset...
Yeah, Ray Allen is such a "class act". That label is so overused and abused. I think I'm gonna scrap it throw it in the heap since it has no meaning. Nowadays your ex-con garbageman is a "class act"!![]()
come game four, the spurs will be making free throws with their eyes closed.
i can just see coach pop inform them :5000 free throws for all of you.
and that is on a daily basis.
watch out for timmy on sunday after he would have completed his 15,000 freethrows.
i feel sorry for the sonics.
they've already gotten their one win.
let them celebrate.
How do you analyse your game ?I don't give a to score 18pts or dish 8asts. All I know is that I missed my FTs at the most critical time. I just hit my first 2 and then i missed my last 4. It is the kind of game where you don't get what's happening to you. It's weird. Anyway, I am very disappointed on the way we lost this game.
After the game, Jerome James said this loss would shut your mouths. How do you feel about it ?
I never answer to a big mouth. We are a classy team.We know what we have to do and we answer on the floor. I just tell him to meet us on the floor on sunday.
This is an interview of Tony Parker after the game. Let the truth be told![]()
French lesson: deja vu
I think there is still much positive about tonight = by playing so bad, we still had a chance til' the last second
The Spurs were in a giving mood and gave away one game. You wouldn't want the Sonics to get a complex thinking that Denver was better than them, right?
I expect the next game to be like game 2... not a blowout, but the Spurs will be in firm control all game.
The biggest positive? We didn't have to listen to the screwy announcers on TNT!
GSH had to eat it on Tony's FTs.
J/K. The only good thing about this (outside of Ray looking like a there at the end) is that we have another one after this.
