Nuff Said and a team with a large set of big ones.
That was frickin sweet.
Props to Tim for keeping them in the whole game. Manu and Tony for not giving up, despite their awful starts. Manu's huge block on Kobe and Tony with big shots in the OT.
And especially, the big, big balla shots from Bowen and Finley.
Last two quarters were straight up classic. Kobe is clutch. Finley is nails!!!
I'm glad that this game is over.
A little ugly, and possibly desperate...but NICE win Spurs!
The basketball gods were looking out for us after Kobe's cheap ass forearm to Manu.
More so than that, just their overall defensive effort towards the end of the 3rd and ALL of the 4th quarter was the best I've seen from them all season.
Agree! Great WIN to boost our confidence back and let even go for much more now and win ALL games on the road! Glad to see Michael Finley hitting this extremely important shot - and the good news is he has 2 good games in a row shooting well now...I guess, we have to take some of the crap back said against him, I certainly do, I hope he keeps it going though!!! Props to the whole team, but personally I think Manu's block on Kobe saved the game - Pop should've played Manu on Kobe from that point on - Bruce couldn't guard Kobe at all...Otherwise, the Spurs were NEVER in the Game until the 4th, but everyone's heroics helped for the win despite this crazy 29% FG shooting!!!
1 Down, 7 to go!!!
GO SPURS!!!
You're an idiot if you think Kobe did that on purpose.
....nah...you're still an idiot...regardless.
@ those who hate it when Finley shoots everytime he has a shoot even when he is in a slump!
WISCONSIN IN DA HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!
This may be the spark
We will see how next game will go
i sure hope so. this could very well be the beginning of a start to another special ending!
Agreed.
Tim is definitely THE man. Props to Tony & Manu stepping up when we really needed it. The D in overtime I thought started out sloppy but the guys pulled it together in the end. (Thank goodness!)
Kobe is a phenomenal player, good grief he couldn't miss! He's looking to distribute the ball more often now and really turning out to be a great leader for his team. Big props to him.
My natural reaction when getting my shot blocked is to go into a seizure too. But you can be damn sure that he knew he got away with a foul on HorryYou're an idiot if you think Kobe did that on purpose.
....nah...you're still an idiot...regardless.
This win means everything. Period.
And you're going on Ignore.You're an idiot if you think Kobe did that on purpose.
....nah...you're still an idiot...regardless.
It was pretty ing obvious Kobe did it on purpose. I've seen Kobe play quite a bit, never seen him spaz like a like he did today when Menu owned him.
you.
I have serious doubts that Kobe did it on purpose. I'd have to see a few more replays of the incident to be sure, but Kobe has said how much he admires the way Manu plays and such...I don't think he would elbow him in the face if he thinks so highly of him.
Kobe definetly meant to swing out at Manu. That was not unintentional contact. No ing way.
Kobe is still a punk and now too an epileptic, it seems.
This is the best win in a while.
GO SPURS GO!!!!
Just got back home and am very happy to see that the Spurs won...and even happier to see that Fin hit the game winner. That is awesome! That kind of team play, never quit, role players stepping up in clutch situations is what this Rodeo Road Trip has been about over the past few years.
Wake up from your dream son, Kobe is a PUNK.
Didn't stop Karl Malone!
Yeah, I see Kobe backhand people who roof him on his jumper all the timeI mean, there's not a game that doesn't go by that Kobe doesn't wind up and deck some guy blocking his shot...
Kobe has said how much he loves his wife before, but that didn't stop him from going Captain Colorado on some hotel worker.
Here is the sequence.
Kobe receives the ball
Drives left
Pump fakes on Bowen, Bowen jumps toget a hand up and is erased from the play
Just as Kobe is about to shoot, Manu blocks his shot from behind.
After realizing he is in a helpless state, and his desire to get the ball, he conveniently, INTENTIONALLY elbows Manu in the face to get the ball back so can jack up another jumper before the clock runs out.
Watch it in fast mo, slow mo, the footage doesn't lie. That was intentional.
I didn't see the alleged swipe by Kobe at Manu, but if it serves to help toughen this team up or get it on edge, then I thank Kobe. More importantly, I'll take this fuggin road win on national tv any day. Nice start to the trip!
