Kelly Dwyer astutely points out what is very obvious to most fans: we are missing our 2nd and 3rd best players. That will wreak havoc with any team, but especially a team that relies on 3 very unique and gifted players. This is what makes games like last week's win over Dallas a mirage of sorts: yes, we can win (and play beautiful basketball) shorthanded; but in the end, you need your stars and best...
No fancy graphs or anything for you today. But, let's get a win this time, shall we? Likely Starters Utah Deron Williams Wes Matthews Ronnie Brewer Carlos Boozer Kyrylo Fesenko Spurs George Hill Keith Bogans? Richard Jefferson Tim Duncan Antonio McDyess Officials Joey Crawford is in the house - that's all you need to know.
That was a tough game to lose. There are some really good signs from last nights game, but one thing that is really not good is the loss of Manu Ginobili . I haven't heard if he's going to be out for an extended period or if everything was just precautionary last night. Let's just hope that game last night didn't cost us more than a loss. On to the game.... The defense was pretty good last night. You...
That kid is soooo a Spurs fan right now. Are you pissed off now? You can bet the Spurs are. Both teams in this game are already backed into a corner in the young season, and are going to fight to the death tonight. This is a SEGABABA for all involved, so... we got that going for us. Utah Jazz @ San Antonio Spurs Where: AT&T Center - San Antonio, TX When: November 18, 2009, 7:30 PM Spurs time Watch:...

Sometimes the game can turn on a single sequence. Up 2 in OT, George Hill drives the lane. The ball is bouncing around the rim, and Duncan has a chance to tap it in, giving us a commanding 4 point lead and momentum. Instead, Duncan leaves the tap short, the Mavs grab the board, Duncan trips over his own feet, And Nowitzki gets a layup at the rim and a foul. And like that we're down 1, 5 point swing,...
I know, I know, this is a bit late, but I was at de beach, keikis! Time passes differently over there. If you want to know just how exactly the Spurs ruined their chances of having a completely positive week, read this post, after the jump. Here we'll provide information, links and summaries for all the games the Spurs played during the week, so that no one has to miss Pop sneering at a reporter. This...
Tim Duncan returned to the lineup with a vengeance Saturday night, scoring 22 points and grabbing 10 rebounds in the Spurs' 101-98 loss to the Thunder at AT&T Center. Tony Parker added 17 points and five assists, and George Hill scored 18 off the bench.
I just finished watching The Ugly Truth , a crappy romantic comedy that was neither romantic nor a comedy. I didn't once laugh out loud, I felt no empathy for the characters, nor did I believe any of their emotional growth. It was predictable, unengaging, and frankly, the two leads were both pretty unlikeable. What's more depressing is that I watched this movie alone, without my girlfriend, on a Saturday...
So, Tim Duncan and Tony Parker are unavailable for a second straight game. Last game, we played defense for about 1 minute, but we can't get away with that tonight. So, how is Pop feeling after that defensive "performance" on Monday night? Let's take a look at his game plan. Yeah, just like we thought. Ian Mahinmi might actually be useful in a game like this(if he could stop fouling), but...
What's up guys this simulation is going to be that of our hated rivales the Dallas Mavericks . As much as I loved playing this game they sure as hell gave me a damn scare. I have stuff to do around today so this is not going to look like previous posts I have had. I do hope you stil will enjoy. Let's go! George Hill gets the start at point for San Antonio. With Tony Parker and Tim Duncan sitting out...
