Spurs @ Hornets Game 1 Blog

[Quiet Strength]

The officiating totally changed this game, sad to say. The Spurs can't play defense because they keep getting called for fouls, while New Orleans is allowed to hack the out of us.

Yeah I think so too but the spurs cant put their heads down and accept it.. at least go out with a fight

[itzsoweezee]

horry's not contributing anything

[Capt Bringdown]

Those double teams are confusing Timmy. He needs to wake up. CP3 is a little , too.

What are we, 0/7 from 3 in the second half??? It had to happen, just as I said, but we haven't found another way to score.

IMHO, Pop is being outcoached here. You have to run cutters down the middle of the lane on every Tim double, and it hasn't happened even ONCE. Pathetic.

Don't let Tpark read your post, Pop can do no wrong, just ask him.

The Spurs are playing weak, especially on defense. You know they are going to get the calls in their own house, so you have to come out strong to beat them. Too many mental errors and letting the ty officiating getting in their heads. Shrug it off and focus.

problem here is O, Tim can't buy a basket - if they spurs hit their shots, that has a huge impact on hornets and they start playing ugly. D is decent enough but you can't let them run and go away - the spurs need to hit their shots and be on range.

Many times Duncan isn't getting doubled and he's still either passing it or throwing up weaksauce stuff. This isn't the same Duncan that was going strong against Phoenix. He needs to get aggressive and go towards the rim instead of fading away at awkward angles expecting to get bailed.

Spurs got no shot with Timmy playing this bad

[01Snake]

Yeah, and Bowen is a model citizen. You want some cheese with that wine.

FAIL

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

This game is not rigged. The NBA, believe it or not, doesn't rig games.

We are simply being outcoached and outplayed right now.

[SoCalSpursFan]

how about show up for the ing game?

true that.

[SPARKY]

Yeah, and Bowen is a model citizen. You want some cheese with that wine.

Oh look, a long time Hornets fan. *guffaw*

[td4mvp21]

Pop hasn't made any adjustments. That never helps.

[ChumpDumper]

I would like cheese with wine.

Why do people keep making excuses for Tim? He's played like a pussy before when teams throw multiple bigs at him who play physical. This is just another one of those nights.

[TheAffricanFan]

Boring...

[peskypesky]

why is Pop not trying some other players, like Barry and Bonner and Udoka?

[WildcardManu]

what a joke CP3 is becoming

[m33p0]

Yeah, and Bowen is a model citizen. You want some cheese with that whine.

-fixed it for yah, playoff n00b.

[td4mvp21]

And Chris Paul. I hate that er even more now.

[td4mvp21]

Only down 8, though.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

We should just do Hack A Paul

[Allanon]

It's not the refs, it's not the D, it's the freakin' O.

Wide open shots are being missed.
Manu trying to draw foul too much

And when you miss a wide open shot, usually that leads to a fast break on the other end.

I would've agreed, but since your head is firmly up ass as always...
