GT: Spurs vs. Rockets

Post #1 » by **Nolan** » Fri Apr 10, 2015 1:50 am

Should be a good one, we won the first game of the home and away and if we win this one we'll leapfrog Houston and become the division leaders in the South West.

Go Spurs!!

The Rockets are going to bring that fire, and that crowd is going to be AMPED. It's going to take a top-shelf game from the good guys to get this done.

Let's make it 10 straight, Spurs!

Blowout time. The Rockets are pretenders.

Harsh I know.

I think Harden's going to try to go top-shelf tonight. After what Curry did last night, he knows tonight's game will be his closing statement for his MVP campaign.

Personally, I would be in basketball heaven if Pop decided to throw out the gameplan and stick Kawhi on Harden all night. Win or lose, that would be a HELL of a duel.

Or he will troll everyone by sitting all of his players, making Harden's 40 point game meaningless :wink:

I'd love to see him do it but this game is too important for us.

I'll be thrilled with a 2-5 point halftime deficit, as bad as we've looked at times tonight.

Get it right in the locker room and play like the Spurs in the second half.

Good call Sammy! Down two after six points total from Danny, Kawhi, and Tony, can't complain! I hope one the law of averages kicks in and those three shoot three points better than the Rockets next half.

Well, we got hot from three at just the right time. Patty with signs!

We FINALLY broke the tie!

Those Rockets announcers are so freaking biased. Yeesh.

Tim Duncan the GOAT!!!

Welcome back Patty Stacks as well!

I think they could have called the foul, but these Houston 'announcers' were so offensively awful, I'm glad their team got screwed.

Seriously, how can Houston fans possibly tolerate those guys for an entire season?

Anyhow, GREAT win tonight!

Choose 720p for the full HD sequence of the block. All ball!

As a neutral fan watching the game, to me it most definitely was not a foul from Duncan!

The Houston commentators are truly awful with their homerism, it's cringeworthy to listen to! Especially when they are flat out wrong.

I'm a Warriors fan but I think Spurs will beat us in the Western Conference Finals. The Spurs are the only team where the Warriors look scared rather than confident when they are playing each other.

Another neutral fan, it was clean, Harden didn't even react.

Well, not really neutral, I like you guys and hate HOU, but not a fan of either team per se.

The King has spoken

Seriously though, Duncan got ALL BALL, Mr. Drexler. I thought that you (and the other guy in the booth) were either blind or intoxicated, since you did the worst job of calling a game that I've ever seen. Would it kill you to compliment Leonard when he makes a nice shot or Patty Mills takes an shot to the face (flop! says Drexler) and still plays good defense? These guys are worse than the Boston announcers, and that's sayin' something. And this is pretty funny:

He got the ball first and in my books that makes it a clean block.
