Stop being so hypocritical dude.

Dont confuse yourself.
If Atlanta is that "ignorant" and "pussy" and "weak" and "insecure", what does that make the Spurs?
Nobody else in the entire universe would even think to complain about whatever it is you're trying to say.
Don't be bitter.
I know you are but what am i comeback? Classy, how old are you?
The only record that counts all season:
Pistons 2L
Spurs 4L
I'd vBookie straight up odds that he complains about NFL teams calling multiple timeouts to "ice" a kicker late in the 4th quarter. "Pussies" must be scared that they will lose the game.
If I actually watched the game, I would most likely be at your level in terms bitterness on the lack of effort. All I saying is that a lack of effort is going to showed by the spurs once in a while. It happened many times last year. That's why we have pop to get on them about effort. We often start slow in that season like this and then get into it late in the year. It's fair to get on the player for lack of effort, but unfortunately the spurs are not going to win every game.
We should just forfeit the yearly game in Phillips Arena.
Why just Phillips Arena? I say all lottery bound teams should just chalk up a W in the column when they see the Spurs are coming to town.
As I stated in an earlier post, I am not at all upset by A loss. They are going to happen, normally between 20-25 a year for this team. I am not even upset about THIS loss to lowly ATL. I would still be pissed if this loss were to the Pistons due to the fact that no one wanted this game tonight. Not a single player stepped up and had the heart or the rocks. Is that an unreasonable expectation of a fan?

ATLANTA (AP) -- The NBA's longest losing streak and second-longest winning streak came to unlikely ends Saturday night when the Atlanta Hawks beat San Antonio 94-84 to deny the Spurs their best 20-game start in franchise history.
The Hawks snapped their seven-game losing streak, winning for only the third time this season and the first time since Nov. 25.
The Spurs saw their six-game winning streak end.
The defending NBA champion Spurs (16-4) were denied their first 17-3 start. They also were 16-4 after 20 games last season.
The Spurs have the most wins in the NBA, and the Hawks (3-16) had the league's worst record and have heard increased local speculation about the future of coach Mike Woodson. But the Hawks enjoyed a rare highlight, taking the lead in the fourth quarter and then pulling away late.
Joe Johnson led the Hawks with 22 points, and Zaza Pachulia added 19 points and 14 rebounds. Tony Parker led San Antonio with 20 points, Manu Ginobili added 17 and Bruce Bowen had 13.
The Hawks trailed 71-69 after three quarters but raced to an eight-point lead in the final period, the last time at 86-78 on a fast-break basket by Josh Childress.
After the Spurs pulled to 86-81, a jumper by Childress pushed the lead back to seven at 88-81. Following two free throws by Parker, Al Harrington's drive gave Atlanta a 90-83 lead with 55 seconds left.
Tyronn Lue, who had 16 points in a backup role, made three free throws in the final 40 seconds to stretch the lead.
The Hawks hoped to catch the Spurs, playing the second night of back-to-back games, with tired legs. Two of the Spurs' three losses have come in those second-night situations.
The Spurs appeared set to put the game away early, They led 23-15 after one quarter and stretched the lead to 14 points at 39-25 midway through the second period.
Johnson was 7-of-7 from the field in the second period, and his 14 points helped the Hawks finish the half strong as the Spurs settled for a 48-42 lead at the half.
The Hawks carried the momentum into the third period, finally taking a 57-56 lead on a fast-break basket by Harrington. The Hawks' last lead of the period was 63-62, but Bowen answered with a 3-pointer and the Spurs -- who are 15-0 when leading after three quarters -- led 71-69 at the end of the period.
Game notes
Hawks guard Royal Ivey started in his third straight game. ... The Hawks have won three of their last four home games against the Spurs
mavs are only one game behind the spurs despite the injuries.
Sorry to confuse some of you with numbers but in the first half, the lead went from 3 to 9 with Beno in and in the second half it went from 3 to even. The team was overall +3 with him in the game. Not saying he played great or anything, but the game didn't fall apart with him in there. That small ball Nazr line up didn't work so well. You have to run it with Tim or Rasho. And what was Nazr thinking with that pass!!
We lost to the Hawks???? Really guys????
Sorry, but yes.
LJ and I replayed that pass like 10 times just to laugh. The funniest part was Manu falling down.And what was Nazr thinking with that pass!!
This is what happens when I leave the team unsupervised.
Look at these vultures Dallas n Detroit nuts coming in here trying to put us in a cofin and .
This is what happens when I leave the team unsupervised.
So, you are the one to blame...........Rasho must punish you now..

Rasho who?
First, I would like to give props to Manu 20, loveforthegame and every one else is the game blog...Thanks!!! Bummer that we lost and didn't get to post stuff like 'that one handed slam dunk by Rasho was wicked/sic'. Oh well, NEXT!
Secondly,20 games down, 62 to go.As I have just stated... NEXT!!!
Third, I think Pop was trying out some different lineups just because we were playing the Hawks(a 3-16 team). Perhaps viewing our weaknesses in a different venue ( meaning playing another team and not during practices/drills with each other) to bring the team to a different level of play, plus give the guys a chance to learn from this loss and improve. Just something to consider.
