Game 68 Vs. Detroit: Spurs 90, Pistons 89 So often we hear statements like “this game had playoff level intensity” or “it was a playoff like atmosphere” and they’re so overused that they’ve become trite and cliché, but you know what? This game did feel like the playoffs to me. I had my arms crossed the whole time, I was muttering and cursing like an idiot and while there is…
Game 66 Vs. Boston: Celtics 91, Spurs 85 Ugh. We’ve seen enough of these this year, no? Charlotte. Houston. Lakers. @ Minny. They sleepwalk through three quarters, look up at the scoreboard at the beginning of the fourth, the reality of a 10 point defecit finally dawns on them, they wake up with from their stupor and fight furiously to tie it up and perhaps even take a small lead,…
Game 62 @ Sacramento: Spurs 100, Kings 93 What. The. Fuck. We had the perfect set-up. A) A Thursday night game on TNT.B) Charles Barkley’s the biggest Ginobili fan on the planet who isn’t gay, an Argentine, a gay Argentine or me.C) Manu’s having the best sustained stretch of his career outside of the otherwordly ’05 Playoffs.D) Ron “Boom Boom” Artest wasn’t going to be in the building. He’s the…
In his latest rankings, Steve Kerr writes what we’ve been saying for awhile now at SpursDynasty. They’ve been lying in the weeds all season. Most fans have forgotten all about them. The Dallas Mavericks are so far ahead of them in the standings that they have no shot at a division title. Quietly though, the San Antonio Spurs have put together their best stretch of the season, winning eight straight…
Greetings, fellow enlightened Spurs fans. I, Bramlet, have emerged from my sacred nook of Spurs contemplation and voodoo to issue SpursDynasty fatwas on two individuals who have earned the wrath of all those who truly love our Spurs. 1. Public Enemy #1A: Matt “Superfluous Mucus” Guokas You fucked with the wrong team, Mr. Guokas. As a Spurs fan in exile, I have the misfortune of being unable to listen to…
Game 56 Vs. Seattle: Spurs 102, Supersonics 71 Great googly moogly are we playing well right now. This is definitely our best little stretch of the whole season and as down as I’ve been about the club as recently as three weeks ago, I’ve got to admit that it looks like we’re in the nascent stages of another patented March-April blitz through the Association. The big three are all scoring…
Game 54: Vs. Denver: Spurs 95, Nuggets 80 Holy crap! Our boys came charging out of the gates after the All-Star break just as resoundingly gung-ho as they barreled into it, beating the holy hell out of the rich & creamies. Not only was the final score much closer than the “contest” actually played out, thanks to a 32-16 spankin’ of Beno and his fellow scrubs in the fourth, but…
“We’ve been inconsistent all year, so it was nice to see us put together 48 good minutes. That’s one of our best games all year, and it is the finest game Francisco has played for this team.”–Gregg Popovich “It wasn’t tough at all to get up for this one. We aren’t playing well, and we really needed to put together a good game before the break.”–Tim Duncan “This is going…
Game 52 @ New Jersey: Spurs 107, Nets 82 If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a thousand times: If we play a team that’s missing their starting point guard, small forward and center and even with all those guys they’re not that great anyway, I like our chances. God, it’s been a while since we’ve had one of these, huh? Almost a full week in fact and I…
Game 50 @ Orlando: Magic 106, Spurs 104 Oy vey, where do I begin? I was actually back home in San Mateo for this one because I had tickets to see my girl Sarah Silverman in concert at Cobb’s Comedy Club, so I basically squeezed this game in between two 500 mile drives, a couple hours of poker, an awkward expensive date, a viewing of Hannibal Rising (sucked) and a…
