Game Thread #17: vs Pistons

Detroit Pistons at San Antonio Spurs, Dec 2, 2008 7:30 PM CST


Several years ago on a trip to Vegas, one of my buddies gave me a great phrase to describe something that went poorly from the beginning.  Like showing up at a craps table with a couple guys and have each of you seven out after establishing two points.

DooDoo Brown.

We played our DooDoo Brown game in Houston.  Grab yourself a fresh roll and let's get ready to clean up this mess.

Breakdown:

  • Parker vs Iverson - I'm calling this a draw.  Iverson is really struggling fitting into the Pistons offense and Tony played like dog poo against the Rockets.  Both could go off.  Both could be semi-lousy.
  • The FinDog vs Hamilton - Hamilton.  Easy call for me there.  FinDog hasn't had his shot going.  Rip looks ridiculous.  I have to give the edge to anybody that looks that ridiculous who isn't named Drew Gooden.
  • Fab vs Kwame - No winner.  Fab hasn't been very impressive this year.  Kwame has never been impressive.  Giving one team an advantage here is like complimenting SiMA on his writing.  Everybody knows it done out of pity.
  • Tim vs Rasheed - Slight edge to Tim.  Rasheed gives Tim some trouble with his length and strength, but as long as Rasheed isn't on from 3-ball land he's a not much of a factor on offense.
  • Capt Spud vs Tayshaun - Tayshaun plays good defense AND has some offense.  Bruce has been known to play some good defense but hasn't even been playing lately.  Prince wins easy.

Keys To The Game:  

  • Suckitude - Can we just not suck like we did against the Rockets? Is that too much to ask? We hadn't played that bad since the game Tony got hurt.
  • Defense - A main part of that suckitude was defensive intensity.  We'll need to have intensity AND play well defensively.
  • Manu - Manu is averaging more turnovers than assists.  Additionally, his turnovers ALWAYS seem to lead to easy points for the other team.  He really needs to stop forcing things and take better care of the ball.   If he doesn't...

Some other reading:

there isn't a Pistons SBNation blog and I don't know of Pistons blog.  So, no extra reading at the opponent site.  I'll give you two other things instead. 

1).  Silver Dancer Jenn has a blog on the Spurs site about her NBA Jam Van tour of Italy.  I found the part about the curling irons and flat irons to be particularly riveting.  Do you think Jenn uses a Chi Flat Iron?  How many of you guys even know what a flat iron is? 

2).  I think Ian Mahinmi got hurt again in his first game in Austin.  He only played 14 minutes and hasn't played in either of the two games since.  This sucks.  The Toros are off to a 1-2 start.  Their main players are our past two 2nd round picks not named Gist:  Marcus Williams and Malik Hairston.  Speaking of Gist, he had his best game of the season Sunday in another loss.  He had 18 points and 5 rebounds.

Other things of possible interest:

The George Hill - Like most everybody else not named Matt Bonner, George had an atrocious game against the Rockets.  It was a matter of time before he came back down to earth.  Let's see how he rebounds.

Oh c’mon you couldn’t think of anything better than “The Nut” for Rasheed Wallace? Thats not even trying. I’m guessin Potatohead is coming off the bench again for Mace Windu. Fin, who by the way up intill that Rockets game, had a nice rhythm going. His shot was fallin for the time being at least.

Tony could’ve played wayyyyyyyyyy worse in that Rockets game. You all act like he put up a Jacque Vaughn or something. He should toast AI in this game… if Pop puts him out there for more than 25 minutes.

by r21x on Dec 2, 2008 12:44 AM CST reply actions  

ok, ok, ok. Maybe “The Nut” sucks a little. but what 1-2 word title encapsulates everything about Rasheed? That should be today’s contest.

Come up with a nickname for Rasheed. It has to be a total of about 12-13 characters.

by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Dec 2, 2008 8:25 AM CST up reply actions  

My favorite nickname for Rasheed: UV, for ultraviolet radiation, implying that UV rays are frying his brain through the odd bald spot on the back of his head. Don’t remember where I heard that one – can’t take credit for something that crazy on my own.

Ian called up

Well, I guess I was wrong about Ian being hurt. He got called up today and Tolliver was sent to Austin according to MySA.com.

I’m almost positive about Jeff McDonald being wrong about the roster space. The Spurs roster limits don’t have anything to do with who is or isn’t assigned to Austin. It is all about who is under contract with the club.

by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Dec 2, 2008 3:21 PM CST reply actions  

I hope Ian is ready to make an impact.

YES! The first calling the team soft of the year. He started early this season.

Who had game 17 in the pool? I usually expect it just after New Years.

by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Dec 2, 2008 11:46 PM CST up reply actions  

I usually expect it right around the Rodeo Road Trip. Pop has me torn right now, he calls the team soft BUT plays The JV. I’m confused.

good point

maybe that’ll light a fire under Georgio’s ass so he’ll start playing aggressive again and stop getting in foul trouble.

Kind of feel Pop is losing patience in the rookie (udrih anyone?)

I don’t think it is anything Hill is or isn’t doing. Correct me if I’m wrong, but he was playing very good up until the Rocket’s game. A couple of bad games does not warrant having your minutes taken away for the sake of The JV. This is the same man who entrusted the running of the team to a 19yr old rookie.

Bad game? How can you have bad game in 6 minutes? That’s not a bad game, that’s a no-game. Meanwhile Finley got 32 minutes.

Meh.

I thought it was gonna take longer since it was not a healthy team and maybe he’ll cut them some slack, but I think the beard is bringing out his aggressiveness.

Have a good evening

OMG it was dead silent, and i know for sure every reporter wanted to ask the “why do you think that is, pop?” after he said we were intimidated. i gotta watch it again.

Yes, even though we aren’t happy now, the whole team did just get back together.

The next 10 games might turn them around.

And hopefully they have a 17-3 run in them.

I’d agree, but we play Denver next Thursday. Chances of winning at our current level: zero.

by LatinD on Dec 3, 2008 5:13 AM CST up reply actions  

is it possible for our chances to be negative zero? Denver looks like a really good team right now.
