After Hawks-Celtics on TNT...this is a big one folks

I am interested to see how Pops sets his defense when Harrington is in the game.

Trade talk has killed the forum

This game is huge and should be a measuring stick for us. We're home and they came off a game they shouldn't have won and should be tired. Lots of Ty Lawson tonight I'm excited to see him on Tony Parker. I just hope I don't gotta hear "Melo doggin it out there he wants out" from Charles Barkley more than 8 times which is about his average.

damn JR

That JR dunk was unreal. We may be dysfunctional but we don't mess around at home

MMMMMMMMMM JR SMITH.

Nasty Dunk

No wonder the Spurs have the record that they have, what a fuggin rip off

This sort of ending makes me hate this league. What a **** joke

Well that's not surprising.

i bet that's exactly what james naismith had in mind when he invented the game of basketball.

running in front of people and falling down.

I don't even know how to describe that. I guess the Spurs still get those "class act" calls. seems like they never call charges in the nba unless manu fu***** ginobili is involved,

Damn! Could not watch it. Sounds like it was a rip off.

Hope guys will carry on good out of this one.

the only way to stop ginobli is to make him go more sideways and herky jerky than even he wants.....he's got set spots in mind he wants to dart to and is pretty good about getting to those spots without giving away which direction he's going

honestly it should have been a miracle win but when you rely on miracles there's always the chance it turns out like this game

the defense by JR was solid

Nene went away from the dunk.....that was annoying especially since it came down to a 1 pt game if he had just stuffed a couple this game would have been under wraps...I mean I like his ability to finesse it in sometimes in a pinch but what he gives up by not establishing himself with the dunk is too much to fall back on the finesse shots....best FG% in the NBA but the FG this game NEEDED to be dunks

dayum

Karl just got fined 25k for his comments after the game. Perhaps the league should use that money to hire competent officials. But lets be honest, stern will be using it for all that lube he needs when **** us.

Isn't it a stated goal of officials to not decide the outcome of a game on a referee's call?

Flopnobli is alive and well.

As you can see from the multitude of views the video offers, 'Melo begins to drive to the basket, but as he nears, Ginobili sets his feet.

Pretty clear, isn't it? -- Wrong.

Plain view: As 'Melo attacked, Ginobili set his feet and the call could have gone either way.

Second glance: 'Melo is in shooting motion before Ginobili sets his feet. Not only this, but Ginobili sets his feet, then picks up his right foot. No, not just the heel. Look closely, it is the entire foot.

That should have been an And1, but of course, there was a little flopping going on there.. and you know how referees are these days, don't you?
