Time for some half time ice cream!

Blair was carrying us at the end of the 2nd.

Shocking isnt it?

I’d say somewhat hopeful, though clearly not enough.

Never thought you’d say that huh?

He can play. He had some good games against the Mavs last year.

Something i don’t wanna hear

Truth hurts? Well, at least someone stepped up when we couldn’t do a damn thing on either end of the floor.

He had 4 points the entire half….

He was playing well in last couple of minutes, not the whole half.

7 rebs, 3 asts, 1 stl.

But yeah, let’s just look at the points scored.

Urgh

I have no sound here watching stream at work.

When they went to pop in the huddle was he singing show tunes or did he have a calm intensity?

Did he have both?

Calm resignation

.

That’s not calm Pop, that sad and resigned Pop :/

You sure thats not Pissy Pop?

I think it’s just Pop. Does the guy even have different expressions? haha

He had a very different expression when Dice hit the game winner at LA.

I loved that smirk.

And terrified Budenholzer.

That’s the worst Pop we that could be, this is resolved Pop. He just came to the realization of how untalented his bunch are.

He realized this team is Teh Suck with no Manu.

C’mon, Pop can recognize a lemon when he see it.

Coach Bud looks like he’s having a urinary incontinence

Lol.. seeing this perfect picture of Pop looking exactly the same as I feel, actually makes me smile. Misery loves company eh…

Pop: “I thought I had good grapes this year, but this wine doesn’t taste good at all”

Calm show tunes ;)

Tank the season and sign Gilbert Arenas

Eww.

one leads naturally to the other

Agent Zero will save us

I’m going to grab a bite to eat. Anybody want anything?

Pick me up some defense, please!

with a side of offense and a diet coke for pop

I’m all out. I can pick you up some more Bonner, though

morning peeps…looks like a frustrating game so far. good times.

this Jekyll and Hyde thing with the Spurs is disturbing

I just took a straw poll here at work, and all the girls who have never even watched the NBA before claim they could rebound and box out better than Matt Bonner.

Don’t hate me i’m just the messenger of truth.

The truth hurts

wow! I wish I was at work.

How manu times will they sjow those heat highlights?

Till the end of time

Shame you, you just used Manu’s name in vain.

Im a bad typist on my phone sorry

my neighbours dogs named Manu and i thought we were going to bond over the Spurs. Turns out he named it after Manu Samoa’s rugby team.

I share a fence with this guy.

Commonplace in New Zealand haha.

I Can’t eat your GHOST CHIPS BRO

ha!

Surf!

thats tearing up the charts on ozzie face book at present lol

easty! how’s it going?

We’re losing. Sad face.

Sexsplots got 2 early fouls. That made the sexond quarter turrible.

i wondered why i didn’t see any of him in what i’ve seen so far.

Down 15 or 13 or whatever, struggling like hell on offense, you would think we would be pressing hard on D especially while going through the offensive slump.

Nope, that was the Spurs of old, now we just stand or walk around and give them whatever shot they want.

In fact we are lucky to be not be down 20 the way we’re playing.

Hoping they’re going to miss, as our defensive strategy, not going to cut it.

And since we never come back from being down double digits in games any more, I say rest everyone as punishment, and let the deep bench get some practice, to get something positive out of this loss.

Feeling a little negative, sure. Was excited to finally get to see a game on TV, and hopefully get a much needed road win. This first half was just disgusting.

I’m feeling a little negative also.

Bring Bruce back…

Let’s see ’em call us “OLD” now!

yup, now we’re just old. no double meanings.

Michael Wilbon is saying something i can’t make out with my lip reading skills since i have no sound on this feed.

It looks like BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH IM NOBODY YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO BLAH BLAH BLAH

I find him super informative.

That is incredibly more interesting than what he is actually saying.

Onside kick at the Pro Bowl!
DISCOUNT DOUBLE CHECK

Did cam newton play wide receiver yet? I wonder.

I would watch the pro bowl but decided this game would be better.

honestly, i’ve been a Spurs fan since 2000, and this the first time i feel what my Sactown and Warriors fans feel, when their team suck for a long time with an uncertain future at best.

Hmm too bad u dont know life before robinson

yea, well i was an infant back then.

U calling me old? Ha ha

They just had to show a george hill hilight.

Feed Tiago!

We have to suck this up all year though.

If we do some stupid trade or bring in an old has been to finish 6th seed in the West it’ll screw us.

...
Phyllorhiza punctata is a species of jellyfish, also known as the Australian spotted jellyfish or the White-spotted jellyfish. It is native to the southwestern Pacific, where it feeds primarily on zooplankton. P. punctata average 45-50 cm in bell diameter but there had been a maximum reported size of 62 cm. However, in October, 2007, one 72 cm. wide, perhaps the largest ever recorded, was found on Sunset Beach, NC. In July 2007 smaller ones were seen in Bogue Sound much further north along the North Carolina Coast. They have only a mild venom and are not considered a threat to humans. However, their ability to consume plankton and the eggs and larvae of important fish species is cause for concern. Each jellyfish can filter as much as 13,200 gallons of sea water per day. While doing that, it ingests the plankton that native species need. (Wiki)



Halftime jellyfish? Nice.

…are you hipuks now?

Need to step up, brother. Especially after the bad first half and all the negativities in the previous threads.

13,000 gallons, that’s impressive

YEAH BABY good karma

We could use this

We need one with a killer venom, though.

Hipuks would be proud….I think

Lakers winning on the road … vs wolves .. FU

their road record is 1-7

So, who thinks we should sign Rasheed “There ain’t nuthin special bout the kid [Manu]” Wallace?

I actually thought he was good his last season, finals almost won vs the Lakers, and retired a bit too soon.

I’d rather eat my own legs

Any player over 6’10 will do the trick

Rumour has it chicagos going for a Pryzbilla after axing mike james.

Leave some big men for everyone else.

I would be glad to see ’Sheed, he might be done though.

he’s 6’11 with long arms, even if he cant move that alone makes him a better defender than Blair and Bonner.

Bonner would be pretty good defender if he could move. ’Sheed was an elite defender in his prime, but he just may be too old now. A lot of defense is about agile movement and effort, so very few defenders can age well.

Interception —> Lateral —> Lateral —> Fumble.
Who says you can’t go to Hawaii to work?

hate the probowl

Say, does anyone know if Underworld: Awakening is worth the ten bucks to see?

Seeing as it has “Underworld” in the title… no.

Yeah don’t pay to watch it.

I suppose I could go to the driving range instead….

I still think we should sign Oberto. We need some BBIQ on this team

if the bar is “can he outrebound/defend Matt Bonner” are we setting it too low?

Yup, thats the bar

i always parse BBIQ as BBQ at first.

FG shooting:

Spurs – 36%
Mavs – 52%

how are we even still this close?

4 bench points?

We’ve actually been lucky in a lot of ways.

here we go! GSG!

single digits!

Kawhi with the baseline jumpshot!

great ball movement Timmy is so patient.

Waits, WHERES SEXPLOTS?:

2 fouls. wait for it…

Good their shots arent going as easily

alright! Good start!

.

We dominated in assists

optimist

this si so odd, i like spurs team basketball so much that we can be blow up by 30 and then i look at the Assists calumn and say “Awww.. we had 25 assists! that’s good” who cares about the rest

means we’re getting the shots we want, just not making them. Good sign I think. and yeah, I’m an optimist too.

AND the NFC is winning. This just keeps getting worse!

The comeback begins…

Needs more Sexsplots, though.

Comeback? Next game you mean?

Seriously though, I hope we at least make it close.

Comeback. This game.

It’s far from being over.

How amazing is Timmy at getting people to reach in on that little hand drop move> he pulls some great fouls like that.

WTF……. Marion!??

he was wide open

I dont want to hear Mario for 3 again!

man, that was good defense until they left Marion open for the 3…

Nice d by Leonard, and nobody rotates to defend Marion’s 3….sigh.

It’s an ugly shot but unfortunately he’s not a bad shooter :/

Marion misses on a fastbreak layup.

RJ defended him pretty well

Was that a Pop wineout? Time for Tiago. NOW

Take the starters out Pop. They arent even playing like they want to win. Simply going through the motions. It gets me angry to see that type of non effort

Exactly.

I’m back. Did I miss anything important or do we still suck?

THe Suck is Still Strong

status quo

I dont believe you. And by you I mean the people who says we still suck.
I knew Timmy still had hops!

Thats what I keep telling myself

still suck, and always will.

Tim Duncan just dunked from the free throw line

We just look so disinterested in this game. No assertiveness in the offense whatsoever.

Tiago, Tiago, Tiago!!!!

Can Hardly watch anymore…. =(

We need a dose of Manu. He cares enough for the whole team.

Nice one Blair!

Blair attacks Dirk.

Yes, Blair, expose Dirk!

Good Move by Blair

Im happy if all they shoot are threes

NIce!!! good job B(l)ear

Thats how you use your body Blair

as bad as this looks, we’re still within striking distance.

agreed

Yep. It looks worse than it is. A couple of 3s and we are back in it.

Yeah unfortunately we don’t often come back from being within striking distance, to actually win.

nice move by blair right to dirk

Attaboy DeJuan. Use those 30 pounds you have on Dirk.

Yay a steal! …and then no offense.

fustratin, but it almost looks like our guys is playing better D

Ridiculous foul call. How about a call for the Spurs

vince carter blocking shots? yet another sign of the impending apocalypse.

TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO

TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO

TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO TIAGO

Play me Pop!

Blair hit the floor & gets called for the foul!?!?!??

17 for carter…. DAMMIT!!

If we’re going to lose because of Vince Carter….I can live with that

17 points by VC, DAL up 17

only up 13

i warned you guys a couple of weeks ago that my brain can not function when the Spurs is loosing

Hey they’re only up 13.. so far.

17 pts from Vince Carter already? Yep, its a Spurs game.

Damn, short leornard!

Carter is killing us.

Leonard missing in the paint.

TP why you shoot 3!?

because he’s been making them lately…

DAMMIT Blair, kick it out!!!

Good off reb by Blair but he rushed the layup.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

So the one huge weapon we have has played under 5 minutes so far this game. Sound strategy.

Wineout. Now.

Goddamnit, Spurs just make a fucking shot.

Team Defense sucks balls!

Did Tiago did something to piss Pop?

2 early fouls.

He shouldnt throw away the key, though.

Blair with the good offball D on Dirk… too bad someone else makes the shot.

this game is done. down 17

A little early to call although it looks bad

Reverse jinx. I like it.

Thats the game…

DJB is taking Dirk out of the game, but the Mavs don’t need him.

Why is Parker shooting 3’s?

Why is Parker throwing it out of bounds?

Why are our starters still in the game?

..Timmy shuts me up for a second.

Why they got to get so pwned on National TV? Why?

CIA Pop wants to go under the radar. WAY under.

Just give it to Tim.

awesome, simply awesome.

DAMMIT RJ, you were wide open!!

RJ has to make that corner 3.

Yeah, it’s his shot.

Tiago coming in!

I hope its not too late!

Mavs subbin, maye we can get a run goin!!

Splots

is there a doctor in the house i have Blood coming out of my eyes.

MAKE IT STOP

Thought he was on the line!

Alright – I need 7 volunteers to go take on the Mavs. Any takers?

I have a broken left hand (had to do it in solidarity with Manu…kidding), but I’ll still play better defense than half our guys.

Too much to ask to get a defensive rebound.

Spurs rebounding effort is great

There you go RJ!

RJ gets one to drop.

And no defense again, more easy Dallas points.

THAT WAS A FAST 3 Sec!!!

Pop is pissed. He’s not calling timeouts.

i’m gonna go to sleep after the 3rd and just pray to wake up in another timeline

I doubt we could stop the Golden Girls from scoring on us

Why cant anyone block Jason Terrys shot. Fk the guy is 6’3. Come Leonard

stopping this now. refuse to watch game and reverse stat cursing mavs by leaving game thread.

Good luck

Making a superstar out of Jason Terry, yep, it’s a Spurs game.

And haywood

Why do we make every team look like they are shot blockers?

This is freaking awful, only RJ and Blair showed up for this game

bugger bugger bugger

JA in, thats the game…

Dirk with only 4 field goal attempts. Good D by Blair, or Dirk just doens’t need to score.

Dirk is not the same

Neal needs to make that.

Mavs without Dirk > Spurs without Manu

Mavs without Kidd > Spurs without Manu

FIFY

Dirk didn’t really showed up for this game IMO.

Playing bad is not the same as not playing at all. But yeah, I kind of agree.

Stinky dung, we look like.

I think west’s shorts are about to fall off :/

White Flag!!! Anderson in

Looks like it

the Spurs better make sure they play basketball tomorrow, not just running up and down the court like they’re doing in this game. Pop will kill them if they don’t work hard tomorrow.

Unfortunately i expect more of this as the season continues.

Someone shoot me in the face!

I really dont expect to win but, I dont want a blowout… Make it respectable!!

blowouts are good. they allow Pop to manage minutes and make the team more focused.

Guess thats true too…

If Neal continues to take those bad shots we are going to lose by 30

Hopefully the Royal Rumble is better than this

British Royal Family show?

so….now what?

Pop Should Finish the game with parker, leonard, rj, duncan and tiago if he wants to win the game

so if this is how bad we look in the first game in 5 nights…how bad is it going to be in the fourth game in 5 night?

Just realised why we’re losing… it’s in Dallas…

or “it’s not in San Antonio”

This is for control of the division!

Now, i can see bow the good about being a Charlotte fan. So many blowouts i could go to sleep early every time.

Were getting worked

If we cut the lead down to 10 before the 4th, I like our chances.

Hope the fLakers lose

lol
They got James Anderson on court

Good D there by Tiago, Anderson and Green

Pullin out all the stops!

Our scrubs should be better than their scrubs. Comon.

Yeah what happened to our BAM.

I think this game just blew up our illusion that we are ‘deep’ or whatever.

look side by side to me

yep. looks like it.

& of course it doesnt go our way!!

I would really like to see Anderson show some spark. He’s the guy I was most excited about this season, then Manu went out to really give him a chance, and its been deep bench almost ever since.

yup, I thought he was going to be the key this season

Yeah, someone needs to light a spark underneath him. He hasn’t been able to manufacture it on his own.

They should give some of Neal minutes to Anderson

WTF?!? I just read Pop’s lips to the guys on the court. “Good job, good job” NOT!!

We still can do it.

Anderson is due to have a good game

Showing for a deal from someone else

Pop threw his challenge flag

Come on refs its not a clear path

yeah, not understanding why it took so bloody long to figure out.

Anderson!

There you go, Anderson!

Oh my god Anderson scored

A guard that can handle the ball. Refreshing.

and is in the game

Once again, boxing out is over-rated

mr anderson! nice of you to join us.

Our boxing out is turrible, the get too many offensive rebounds…

Oh my god. Was just going to say good d and we give up the rebound.

What is this Sorcery?!

Lucky shot by Bonner

bonner threeeeeeeeeeeeee

lol 11… still alot homie

Bonner,finally.

Bonner for 3! C’mon guys, get it to single digits!

We can’t buy a call…

Pass the ball neal

Oh I forgot, we need D as well…

Go scrubs go scrubs go

Neal got crushed in there…

how many points in the paint did we have so far? 7?

Prolly pretty close.

Another lucky miss from Terry.

Splitter throwing it down!

We’ve given up 12 offensive rebounds and got blocked 9 times…

Splits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get. A . Stop.

Splots put back!

Angry dunk by Splitter

great pass by Anderson

Good recognition by Anderson, too bad Green misses the layup, fortunately, Tiago’s there to clean up the glass.

Anderson needs to be in the rotation

Why hasn’t Splitter played more?

Two early fouls.

We’re in the 4th.

Now there’s no excuse for him not playing. But you didn’t expect Pop to change his rotation patterns for the second half, didn’t you?

…yes. *looks down

Saving hiim for tomorrow?

He’s young.

picked up 2 early fouls

He committed two quick fouls, but that shouldn’t be enough to keep him on the bench for too long. Pop might be saving him for tomorrow?

maybe Pop does not want to show Tiago in national TV to keep him a secret weapon for the playoff…….nah

Lead down to 11. We can do this!

good pnr D there by splots

Do you realize that the Spurs has effectively let Anderson go? I almost dont want him to play well this so odd.

Of course Rubio is missing all of his shots against the Lakers, but he made most of them against us. Classic

are they playing D on him?

They are probably playing the same strategy the Spurs did. Going under the screen. He just decided to make them against us lol

Irving 23 pts. and CLE won vs. BOS!

aw, you beat me to the punch

Just got back from the Cavs-Celtics game.

All I have to say is,

Kyrie Irving, muthafuckas.

he had a good play down the stretch there.

really, it was a team effort

closed the game on an 11-0 run.

He’s the real deal.

the game winner.
with 2 seconds left.

Wow. Great layup.

Yay! He’s on my fantasy team!

Anderson has a lot of play for…

How the hell did Vince Carter turn back the clock?

He’s doing well for my fantasy team though

nice three by neal

Terry’s helping us!

The Mavs are missing?

Go scrubs!

Nice hustle by Splitter

GREEN THREE!!! lead down to 5.

Well, how about that!

NOWAY!!!! down 5

Green! 5 point game!

15-2 run by bench

green machine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hell yea! Scrubs

Haha 5pt game. Love how nervous the Dallas crowd is getting.

can’t believe they’re getting beat by our 2nd unit.

Green!!! Nice hustle!!!

Green!!!! HUSTLE!

Heat check by Neal, miss, then layup by Green!

ugly. heat check by Neal!

Greensleeves bailing out Neal,

HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And you wanted to leave…

OOMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aaaaaaanderson¡!!!

Anderson!!!!!!!!!!!

Anderson for 3! Timeout dallas!

Hell yea again.

FUCK JOSEPH!!

ANDERSON + NEAL + GREEN EXCELLENT!!

POINT GUARD BY COMMITTEE

this is so unlikely and insane!

Lead down to two!!! Go Spurs Go!

anderson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

WOOOWOOWOOWOWOO!

POp didn’t throw the towel. He challenged the bench to step up.

Well, this is an old team. You need to rely on the bench

He should challenge the starters.

Neal, 5 assists. Nice.

Love it

Bench coming up big

Holy crap! I’m so pumped right now; I’m jumping around the whole freakin’ house!

This is why I watch NBA Basketball.

Green + Neal + Anderson = YEAH!!

Be awkward if we lose now.

Aren’t we still down?

Well whatever the hell is going on with James Anderson, he is responding tonight. +16.

Pop beat him with a stick

he’s getting playing time instead of Joseph

I will take credit, yeah that’s it.

he’s playing well to attract other teams?

Dang, all it took was some pressure defense, and three made threes from three different bench players, and suddenly this is a fun game!

I guess I’m back.

like the replay on the green rebound-layup – after he grabs the rebound, dirk, who is standing next to him, decides to turn the other way and complain about something (not boxing out?) while totally ignoring green…who dribbles behind him for the layup. good BBIQ there dirkus…

Ya i noticed that also

Luv watchin this crowd all depressed!!

Kinda like us a few minutes ago =/

But they cant see us on TV!

we weren’t depressed, no!

::cough::

losing that big lead against our 2nd unit must have been such a surprise for them.

Lol yeah this has me happier right now than the prospect of winning the game

!

I remember when Beaubois was supposed to be good

Starters back for Mavs, now it’ll be interesting.

Great D by Splitter

Mavs…meet the New and Improved San Antonio Spurs

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY

WE HAVE THE LEAD!

GREEN with the 3. Spurs take the lead!!!

Unbelievable!!!!!!!

Green with another 3! Spurs with the lead!

LETS GREEN THIS THING!!!!!!!

the leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeead!

START the bench from now on!!!

Now this is a goddamned lineup? Why do you do this to us, Pop?

had too much wine. But hey, its working! Good job pop!

Lol

Greeeeeeen!

Spurs lead!!

Even Bonner is on fire!

OMMMMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Finally Bonner

Another Bonner three!!!

OH MY BONNER!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

BOOOOOONEEERRRRR

Its raining THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!

Bonner for three! Mavs down 4!

Bonner three!!!

OH MY GOODNESS!!

Poker face by the starters …

young guys showing them how to get it done.

Holy shit! Is this the same game!?

Live by the 3…..

Well theyre just open, so why not

this is my team. Don’t know who those other guys were

you mean the guys sitting at the bench?

yeah! go Spurs!

Keep on Poundin’ Keep on Believin’

Dang, I go to wash dishes, and come back to a Spurs lead!

get back in that kitchen

about the only time that comment is appropriate.

hah! I was supposed to go wash the dishes too, then it rained 3s.

Keep Pounding the Rock Baby!!

Late Life! I heart iT!

Few things are funnier than Bonner “showing emotion”.

IF I see our starters come in, I’m going to throw up!!

Well, so much for PtR at Dallas

When we do this sort of thing, I catch myself laughing a kind of evil, quiet laugh.

It’s fun.

What I’m glad is that my mid-3rd quarter faith has been partially rewarded.

Oh my. The grammarz iz deadz.

Maniacal laugh… maniacal laugh…

How the hell is Carter killing us

Yeah, what is he like 50!??

Because it’s just that kind of game.

Almost a steal by Anderson.

That was close

Nah, Marion isn’t a three point shooter

but he makes it when he’s open like that.

Made one from the same place last time

rebound by the Spurs. Good D!

Foul on Ian ( NBA Champ) !

Give it to Splitter! 4-down please!

If the foul is on Mahinmi while green made the shot… shouldn’t it still count?

this qtr is beautiful

Red Rocket is being Red Rocket

bonner with the….what was that?

it was 2 points…

and that’s all that matters.

where was the foul?

terry tripped over his own feet. DUH! obvious foul on a spur.

Nice Anderson to Bonner!

even the D is picking up! young legs does wonders for your D

Lllllllllet’s get ready to Rocketttttttttt

Splots played suprisingly good D

surprising?

*perimeter D

He’s the only big guy we have with good lateral movement

That’s because hes SEXSPLOTS.

It’s not surprising at all. He’s a good defender. He tends to be aggressive at times but he’s really good on that end.

I just got here, and the Spurs are winning, so I have to ask… was there a Korean comic?

just got here? man, we were DOWN big in the third. then the bench happened.

Nope

That settles it then

there was a halftime jelly fish

Wow then this definitely settles it

I didnt see much of a foul there

just turned on espn to see Bonner’s 3. Holy crap!

I know you guys dont want to see the starters but the bench expended alot of energy getting the leade, they may need a rest

That was not a foul!!! Man they keep bailing Dallas players taking bad shots.

Pop calls timeout, 6:43 left in the game.

SPURS up, 77-75.

so now pop decides to call a timeout? He was pretty quiet when we were getting blown out in the 3rd..

all that scoring. dude needed a wineout.

Honestly, I don’t care. I’m just glad we came back.

3 quarters of crrrrrrrrrrrrap and one quarter of awesomeness

Are we the new Tebow?

Typical Spurs

Still a whole lota ball to play!

Fuck. I have a class in 15 mins. Fuck Monday classes!

Hey, it’s your future

today’s sunday

He’s in the Philippines (or Indonesia, I forget which)

You can be late, right?

Dude, priorities. Maximize your absences!

Tiago cleans up after Neal’s mess!

sploooooooooooooooooooooots!

thats they play, don’t pass the ball to splitter, let him dunk the rebound

Neeeeeeal!!!!!

threeeeeeeeeeeeee

NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

NOOOOOOOOOOO F&^%&^ WAY!!!!!!!

HWY THE FUCK NOT……… Keep firing!!!

This is better than sex!

Imagine having sex while watching this game…

I vote 4 a happy ending!

Imagine having sex while attending this game…

Damn how many timeouts does dallas have?

Maybe we should just shoot 3s from now on?

NO
thats what we want them to think … when thats exactly what we are going to do

Lol, 24-6 run.

Crazy. Almost all bench points, too.

somebody is about to get got!

This is so awesome

This is not great for my heart

Our bench scoring:

1st half: 4
2nd half: 33

I think we just found our 5 new starters!!

This lineup ROCKS.

33 straight bench points??!
WHAAAAAT

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TIME TO FINISH THIS THING!

21 assist vs 10 assist … We are awesome

we’re getting the shots where we want them, just wasn’t making them in the first 3 quarters…

Spurs with a 7 point lead! Go Spurs!

Finish these fools RIGHT NOW!!!! FUCK I hate these mavs!

this is amazing. like the @ miami game…except the other way around.

repeat after me – there was no miami game.

And on the road, and a true team effort

I’ve never seen anything like it

Obviously the solution is to bench Tim, Tony, RJ and Blair the rest of the season.

flawless logic. i approve.

This 2003 game 6 in Dallas-esque

Was just thinking the same thing. The whole bench is channeling their inner Stevie Kerr!

Steve kerr game?

Keep that pedal to the medal and that crowd quiet, Spurs! LOVING this!

I am so thrilled and shocked, i just woke up my gf with a “Neal!” shout.
And i said to her “But baby, we just went from down 18 to up by 7 out of nowhere” so she turned me her back and whispered a curse. thats my girl!

24-6 in the period!

25 point swing. Jeez.

We aren’t there yet but this is starting to feel like the exact opposite of the Miami game which may not have happened.

just joined via link by @poundingtherock
i’m @bigfundenmental

this has been awesome to watch so far

Good shot Neal but next time pass it =)

Point guards are overrated.

Okay! Later folks!
PLEASE WIN THIS ONE!

Tiago got fouled!!

who is it? I’ll beat em up.

Heh heh heh. The announcer just said that “Neal, Green, and Bonner continue to dominate the Dallas Mavericks.”

I’m laughing evilly again.

Neal has his floater on

I think our BAM getting tired… might want to put the starters back in the last 3 mins.

Neal and Green and Anderson are just sharing the ball great.

Neil, is killing them

Nails

Knew that was goin in…DAMMIT!!!

ANOTHER 3 NEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!1

NAILGUN RESPONDING

no way! this is great!!!

NEAL, right back at you Terry!!!

GREAT answer Gary!!!

I can’t believe this was supposed to be a white flag game. The bench was just like “uh, if you don’t mind, Coach, how about we try to win?”

exactly. Pop was just probably thinking of getting another practice session for the 2nd unit.

The Nail. That is all.

Neal is unconcious

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gary Neal again!

Hear how pissed the dallas fans are

Oh.

God.

Neal.

Jus give it to Gary & run by to D!!!

ahahahahahahahaha hammer it home gary!

FUCK YES, NEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Neal is SICK!

He freaking drained that mofo.

Neal with the proverbial nut punch.

TIAGO was hacked!!

No way they call anything on Dirk right now

To be fair, the refs aren’t calling some fouls the Spurs have made either

Neal Before Zod!

They won’t call a foul on Dirk! Tiago’s getting mugged!

Hes getting clobbered

That was a foul on Splitter.

Least consistent team? Us.

Tiago can not get a call

Where was the foul on Splitters shot??

& on the D side too!!

Hehe, I LOVE the acting job by Splitter! :D

Haha ya it was

Make-up call.

I hate NBA refs…

Gary is amazing

Loose ball foul on the Mavs! Spurs bal!

What happened to the Lakers?

Last time I checked it was 55-72, now it’s 74-79

they trying to play like Dal is

Theyre on the road

i guess that’ll do it this season

What in the hell just happened?

We are not getting ANY calls now.

I never comment here because I rarely get to watch games, living in NY and all, but this is a great game. Loving it.

Hey man, welcome to the thread. Hope to see you around !

I plan to be around if they can get some more games on National TV! Sucks to be a Spurs fan from NY, but then again never sucks to be a Spurs fan!

Welcome. If the Spurs win this one, you’ll have to join game thread from now on.

Haha I’ll do my best

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey welcome buddy, enjoy your time.

Great D on Dirk Splots!

Run some clock!!!!

Clock management now…..

Come on Spurs do this.

Yes, foul on Splitter

SPLITTER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TIAGO grabs the rebound and draws the foul!

Splitter doin sum dirty work!!!

Finally! Someone who fouled Sexsplots got called for it!

they gave splots a call!@

hah! Starters got smiles on their faces.

Well guys,

would you say you have a bright, young future in the post-Duncan/Ginobli era?

let’s not get ahead of ourselves

Bonner defending and boxing Ian out, who said Defence isn’t infectious

Green blocks the SHIT out of that!

Green block!!!

Nice block green

Good D by Bonner and Green!

VERDE withe the HUGE block!!!

What a block by Green

Where was the foul?

That block was (I’m not allowed to say it).

Wow…

God i hate Terry, i also dont know where the fould was.

F’n Terry

Aaaargh, c’mon… that’s a ticky tacky foul.

Bonner didnt touch him…..

They’re not calling it straight.

Will the starter come back after the timeout?

i hope not. the bench is running things, let them finish it.

I can’t believe I’m saying it, but I hope not.

C’mon, San Antonio—FINISH this thing!!!!

Terry can…he can… well he can….dammit

lucky bounce there. C’mon Spurs, Just a minute 30 left…

1:22 left in the game. Spurs up, 89-85.

Wow call a damn foul for Splitter or for Neal fucking refs. But you call that cheap ass foul for Terry. Be fucking consistent.

i hope he keeps the bench in.

We need to continue with the ball movement on offense

Tough 80 seconds remaining.

Hope fatigue doesn’t mess it up.

Keep!

Tiago cant by a call.

Splots is getting killed…

dang, if Splitter made that…

TIAGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

C’mon Spurs, play some D!

Come on Neal what was that

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I wanted to go to sleep 40 minutes ago!!!

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Why did Dirk get to pass to himself?

fook fook fook fook

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

well we have .5 secs

Needed that free throw.

I hate that man so much

Free throws. Thats all I gotta say.

They are getting away with so much.

inbound alleyoop?

THATS A TRAVEL!!!!!

This was pops fault
What about timeout??

Doris is quite annoying

I’ve heard worse.

0.5 secs. Let’s do this!

damnit……we needed that FT

give it to the nail

I know you’re not happy

But this is a game for the ages.

Fact: “Beaubois” is the French-Filipino term for “stupid.”

Free throws. Thats all I gotta say.

Bad decision by Neal. That’s when you need a PG.

we still have one shot left! c’mon Pop, draw up a good one!

we have all shooters, we can get a shot in .5 secs

Neal is getting this play.

This is bad, cant expect the subs to play the entire overtime

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

OMG did it count??

OH MY FUCKING GOD

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

OMGZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

That’s what I’m talking about!

THIS IS NOT REALL!!!!

MOTHERFUCKIN GREEN!!!

wait, did Green just win the game?!

OMG OMG OMG OMGO GMMGOOMGMOGOGM

Greeeen for the WIN!!!!!!!!#%%$*

SPURS WIN SPURS WIN SPURS WIN BUZZER BEATER

was that counted?

DANNY GREEN!!!!!!!! THAT’S MY BOI!!!

Nevermind…. No basket. Still love him, though.

Wow that is close

Wow. Mavs fans look stunned!

shit, it looks tight

OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE

pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease let that count!

NBA.com counted it.

This makes up for 0.4

It’s to close

Fuckkkkkkkk…..0.01 late.

Damn he might not have released it quick enough

WE WONT GET THAT ON THE ROAD

omg wtf happened? boxscore says spurs win…

refs called off the shot

nope, green got the shot off about 0.01 seconds too late…..

Wow….typical

Overtime. Great last play, though.

no basket! Damn!

That was quicker than fisher

kamans free throws are quicker than fisher

I’ll blame the timekeeper.

seriously it was.

That Terry shot went in WITH ATLEAST ONE SECOND LEFT. Refs save the Mavs yet again

Keep the young guys in!!

I don’t care if we win or lose anymore. that is hell of a ball game.

I don’t share your sentiment :)

So … Fisher can do it in 0.4 but gren cant in 0.5 fuck reffs!

Why couldnt we just make one extra free throw. Idk if we can pull this out in OT. Sigh. All we needed was one shot to go in.

overtime, boooo!

Aahhhh…Lets go Spurs

Roller coaster.

New Thread

New MOJO!

That was BS time keeping.

Dirk traveled on that play

Still should have counted, in my book.

BS BS BS BS BS BS

wow. Same line up for overtime…

We gotta gather ourselves now. Keel pushing. Mavs hoping to steal it back now.

alright, hopefully I’m good luck. Let’s go Spurs!

Oh, just make a decision, for Pete’s sake.
