Spurs @ Rockets: Pregame Thread
San Antonio Spurs at Houston Rockets, Feb 26, 2010 7:30 PM CST
We've got a game against the worst team in our division tonight. And by "worst in our division", I mean they're sitting right at .500 for the season. After starting the year by blowing away everyone's expectation, the Houston Scolas have fallen back to earth. However, prior to the trade deadline, they acquired a first-class wing scorer in Kevin Martin. The Spurs should be very wary of this team.
Losing this game would be unacceptable, and I'm hoping for a dominant performance to show that this Spurs team really has turned things around.
On the other hand, Tony Parker has food poisoning and may not play.

It has transmogrified from boo-boo status right into beloved PtR meme status.
How can you complain about that? You made a mark on the site and I hear whining as a result.
Do you hear LatinD making negative sounds about otstanding? Is WVATS out there grumbling about brillian and amazine? Do you ever hear me griping about gowning on trees?
What’s that? … Really? … No one at all?
Well, I guess that last one isn’t a very good example, but that doesn’t invalidate my point.

I like it more when Tim Kness makes a PtR appearance than Tony’s need to dominate Fisher. Speaking of which, why didn’t anyone abuse the hell outta that meme over Valentine’s Day weekend? Too easy?

by transgojobot on Feb 26, 2010 6:30 PM CST up reply actions
It’s really hard to describe just how much I love the whole Tim Kness thing. It’s one of my personal favorites and I think it’s awesome every time it’s referenced well. But it would completely die if it was overused.
Parker dominates Fisher is different because it actually still works as an “almost” everyday thing. Do I laugh at it every time? No. But the ubiquitous nature of its usage kind of works for it, not against it. It’s a rare meme that you can say that about.

Tony may not play....
but MG damn sure better. I saw that game the other nite when he stuffed bigD…..DAMN, that was sweeeeeet!! I’m sure it made all the highlight reels, I mean, it’s not like Manu never blocks a shot….but C’MON MAN!!!! That was off the hook!! He was playing like a man possessed….“Manu blocks the shot….Manu passes….Manu shoots….Manu scores….Manu steals the ball” Well you get the picture…he decided to win that game, with or without the help of his teammates!!
I don’t think Tony not playing is much of an issue. The Spurs need him healthy for the playoffs to go very far, so I’d rather he take a week or two off now and try and fully heal (or get closer). He didn’t play the final quarter of the last game and the Spurs won. As long as Manu plays like he has been playing, they should do fine.
Which is why I changed my sig last week. Or was it the week before?

WTF was I thinking!
Bella, from this day forward I promise to include you in my Tony Parker bitch sessions.
George Hill is playing great basketball right now. If Tony doesn’t play, we are ok with our starting line up. Manu will play the point with the second unit. Tony needs to rest so he can run around Derek Fisher in the playoffs.
Most of the time when Tony’s out, Pop uses two of our three remaining ballhandlers(Manu, George, Roger) at a time, which is actually a smart strategy. That way, it relieves some of the pressure of just one guy having to set everything up.
Fire Pop from the Spurs! Fire Bonner from basketball! Fire your mother from child-rearing!
Once again, I won’t be able to join the game thread party, as I’ll be busy playing the triangle. This does bode well, though, for the Spurs chance of winning. Have fun without me and a few drinks for me.
I’m in, too… I’ll do my part to keep the alkie participation at proper PtR level.

I guess our new strategy is start slow, let them get their run early, then fight and fight and come back later for the lose.
Rather than our old strategy of starting strong, getting a lead and then giving it up in the end for the lose.

Dear Spurs,
I am afraid i’m going to have to break up with you I nor my liver can handle this emotional roller coaster that is your season. This is not a spur of the moment thing i have been contemplating this since the first loss to the mavericks. Then you told me you could change you would be a better team and you beat the lakers. I was a fool to believe you and now you have let me down once again. I cant keep doing this i have decided to move on in hopes that we can both grow. Unfortunately i wont be leaving Austin i think im just going to give up on sports and take up a new hobby like stamp collecting.

Pop doesn’t like to fiddle with lineups. He pretty much likes to set one at the start of the season and not change it again for years.
You like that eh ?
How about this.
" Its a good thing Kevin Martin is taking such a long time to get acclimated to the Rockets system. It validates Pops take that it should take at least a full season for a player to gel with the rest of the squad."
( For further proof, see Haywood and Butler on the Mavericks who are playing horribly ( 6 game win streak )
...Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is forty five.
