The Spurs

[Mac Is Back]

Are getting it handed to them by the Rockettes.

53-36 halftime lead for Houston.


This mostly due to the fact that the Spurs aren't playing like the Spurs.

My eyes started bleeding with 4:17 left in the 2nd quarter.

My eyes were bleeding as soon as you put that score update up.

My eyes are bleeding heavily now:

Rockets 61
Spurs 47

6:40 3rd Quarter

That is probably because they have to play the Hornets tommorow night.

spurs arent playing like they usually do

Well if they keep on playing like this, they won't catch the Mavs in the Southwest division and they won't beat them in the playoffs again.

Houston keeps piling it on.

Rockets 79
Spurs 61

Dude forget it. The Spurs aren't going to catch them. If they do want to win they better start their run and score alot of points to win. Lonny will be in the Spurs fans' faces after tonight is over. His Mavs are killing the Clippers 75-53.

No surprise there.

Lonny needs a reason to mouth off to Spurs fans...his Mavs haven't given him much reason in the shadow of the Spurs lately.

Oh I am sure that we will have a long post of stats later tonigh. This is going to be a long night with Lonny's 2 cents.

They just sucked tonight. They let the Rockets beat them for the first time since 1997 and the Rockets were 0-17 since then. I think that sent a message to the Spurs that they need to start playing better if they want to win the Southwest division.

I didn't think they would keep winning like they did, but I didn't expect them to play this bad.

You want to have a good effort and get a good lead the first night to rest players. Sometimes you rest players to save them for the next night. The Hornets won in OT tonight and the Spurs will buck the back-to-back trend and win tomorrow night. If the Spurs had beat Houston, they might've lost tomorrow night.

There's nothing to be in anybody's face about. Both teams are 20-7 and probably mad that they're that bad. I'm upset that Dallas is only 20-3 in the last 23 games.

There's no shadow now!

It is one game out of 82, but those teams want every edge they can get to have a Game 7 at home. I've personally watched both teams win on the other guy's floor in the playoffs and regular season, so it's not like that's a lock. These teams are close most years and every loss does hurt in the effort to win the division:

2000-2001 Spurs 58-24 Mavs 53-29
2001-2002 Spurs 58-24 Mavs 57-25
2002-2003 Spurs 60-22 Mavs 60-22
2003-2004 Spurs 57-25 Mavs 52-30
2004-2005 Spurs 59-23 Mavs 58-24
2005-2006 Spurs 63-19 Mavs 60-22
2006-2007 Spurs 20-7 Mavs 20-7

hitting stride late in the season IMO helps a lot more.

most sports is like that. notice how the wildcard teams like always win now a days, they have all the momentum.
