Leaning to a win here.

I think we'll see more of JV than Damon for defense against AI. JV in his stints did a good job against AI in the playoffs last year.

Very tough homecourt advantage and a knack to grab a win randomly against your team.

But Utah is rooting for you. You would give us tremendous padding for our upcoming road trip with Boston being one of them.

Looking forward for a good night for Manu again.

will be a tough game, the Spurs could've won last game had they held Iverson in check in the final minute, lets hope they want some revenge and take care of business.

if we lose? i be disappointed

easy win, next

Well we play Denver twice in 4 days. I'm hoping we win. luckily the big three for us got alot of rest last night so they should be somewhat fresh. however playing a b2b in the mile high city be can very very tough. I'm gonna hope ofr a win. Spurs by 4.

since when? nothing in the nba is ever an easy win[/b]

the bold is me, i didnt realize what i was doing idk y

Mate, don't take the "easy win, next!" thing too seriously, it's been a running joke on the Spurs board for the past 2-3 years.

U guys won pretty easy last night, nobody even played 30 min.....Should be a battle tonight and monday, i'm hoping for a split.

Why shouldn't we win... It is going to be a good test for us. WE usually suck on back to back and Denver is rested from a blowout where everything clicked for them.

We have to get the boards, have to shoot the 3 at a good percentage and damn it Manu do your thing. You have been **** crazy as of late.

We have to limit Melo, he is actually attacking the boards with more regularity and I think that will cuase more problems than usual.

Keep the streak alive.

Manu definately has been on a mad surge lately. Keep it up! Another thing to keep in mind is to keep the Nuggets fast break offense grounded. You don't want them to get bunches of points in a hurry if you're the Spurs.

Looks like a tough game against a desperate Nuggets team. But we own the Nuggets so we should win.

SD2042, you make me sad. You took away Sofia and her impressive rack.

Horry is awesome...

JR with a crazy shot...

AI has been really hard to stop tonight...

Playing quite well, controlling the tempo

The defense has been terrific, particularily on Carmelo

Ginobili, Duncan, Parker, Thomas playing great

Continue to just adore how Kurt Thomas is meshing in

That pass he made was awesome

Underrated and overlooked passer.

Manu turnover... Nuggets with the lead...

They are just there... we need to make a push the last 3 mins.

I've respectfully requested he change back as well...I'll take Super(wo)man cleavage over Superman dunks any day of the week...

Has JV EVER hit a jump shot? I swear, I can't wait until we have Manu / Barry in the backcourt as our 2nd unit.

@ 10 mins in the 4th, we look HORRIBLE.
(Duncan with the 3pt play to bring it to a 10pt game).
