Game 32 @ Cleveland: Cavaliers 82, Spurs 78 Dammit. Only 32 games, and already the dream is dead. As you may know, it was my very ambitious goal for this club to beat everybody in the regular season at least once, but now it’s not going to happen. One would think that the feat wouldn’t be that hard for a team of the Spurs caliber, especially since everyone in the…
This from the National Ledger: NBA star Tony Parker must feel as he just drove the lane on Shaq. The handsome San Antonio Spurs guard has been rejected by his pint-sized wife to be, according to a published report. Eva Longoria, the same gal that struts in high-definition in skimpy outfits on ABC has reportedly called for a nude shut down. No strippers, no cigars and no alcohol. The 24-year-old…
Game 29 vs. Milwaukee: Bucks 114, Spurs 107Record: 21-8 Last 10: 8-2 Michael Redd had 36 points and Mo Williams had 23 against the Spurs tonight. Manu Ginobili and Brent Barry missed the game because of a stomach flu. Even so, this is a game the Spurs could have won. What is stomach flu? I can’t recall ever being told by a doctor that I had “stomach flu,” or hearing…
Game 24 at New Orleans/Oklahoma City: Spurs 103, Hornets 77 I haven’t written here for a while. In my defense I’m tremendously lazy. Also, I think I almost had a heart attack a week ago. I had already been up 32 consecutive hours between 9 AM Thursday and 5 PM Friday, writing two term papers, having lunch with my newspaper editor and working before I discovered that I still wasn’t…

Urbane philosopher Tasty Taste once wrote (in the epic poem Granny Said Kick Yo Ass) : “I’m gonna kick yo’ ass”“That was just a good old-fashioned butt whuppin’,” Clippers point guard Sam Cassell said. “Like your grandma used to give you when you messed up and you knew you were going to get it.“ (Coach Don Nelson of the Warriors described their 129-89 loss as “an ass-kicking,” as we reported)…
Game 20 Vs. Los Angeles Clippers: Spurs 111, Clippers 82 Well, that was anti-climatic. Silly me, I thought the Clips would actually give us a game. Oops. Right now we’re just crushing everybody. In fact, our last three games have all been pretty one sided. It’s almost as if we added something to our arsenal, starting with the Warriors game that we hadn’t had before when we were slumping… Eh,…
Game 19 vs. Charlotte: Spurs 96, Bobcats 76Record: 14-5 Streak: W-3 The Spurs beat the Bobcats on Tuesday, thanks in part to another night of great free throw shooting (really?) and another poor outing by the love child of Larry Bird and Jack White. [Just to be clear, I have all the respect in the world for Bird and White, I just thought the line was funny enough to bear…
Game 18 vs. Golden State: Spurs 129, Warriors 89 Wowzers. That’s more like it. Running, ball movement, not too many careless turnovers, and most importantly, the ball going IN the basket. It’s important to not put too much stock into a runaway like this because let’s face it, we played about as well as we can possibly play against a miserable defensive team. Is it an encouraging sign? Absolutely. But…
“It was an ugly win and we’ll take it. But we definitely need to go back (and) do some more practice and try to play better.”–Tony Parker Game 17 vs. Sacramento: Spurs 100, Kings 98Record: 12-5 Streak: W-1 Ugly? 18 Spurs turnovers. Five of them by Parker. Ugly? Kevin “Pretty Boy” Martin scoring 30 and all five Kings’ starters scoring in double digits. Ugly? Bruce Bowen scoring 23 points, shooting…
