I agree with you..I thought it was interesting how Orlando torched the nets from 3..while the Spurs..enuff said..Oberto..Ian...Bowen...do something already..start playing..retire..contribute..cmon
...the Spurs are not compe ive with the best teams in NBA at this moment. Orlando won too easily regardless of the score.
Lets hope things turn around for the Spurs toward the end of the season.

yeah its the truth but the blind spurs homers here wont wanna hear it.
we're barely compe ive with scrub teams. lol
unless we get another great player on the team, we arent winning this year.
Have to give props to Orlando for thier 3pt shooting. They hit over 60% which will not happen very often. They shoot their average and the Spurs win this one even with some of those questionable calls - Howard's obvious charge oagainst Manu and the phatom foul that gave R. Lewis 3 FTs. That's 5pts right there they shouldn't have had but as Sean said - there are nights like these. The Spurs have had these types of nights, too. All NBA teams have.
In this game we were the bug and the Magic was the windshield.
Magic...14-22 from 3. Spurs...3-13 from 3...and we were in the game the whole game and had a chance win it late.
You say the Spurs are not a compe ive team...that tells me you are not a compe ive poster.
Total BS. Orlando was toying with the Spurs and easily pulled ahead when it counted.
That's much better than an obtuse poster with his head buried deep in his own anus. There are too many of them in here.
Last night's game was compe ive and we were playing one the NBA's elite teams.
What was the point of the OP again?
We gave one of the best teams everything they can handle on one of thier best performances of the season.
They played nearly flawlessly.
No they weren't. As stated before - any team that shoots over 60% - 14 of 22 - from the 3 pt line and will win most of those games. The Spurs held their own in all the other stat categories. Orlando shoots their average and the Spurs win but 8 - 10 pts. Throw in those questionable calls mention earlier and it's a 15 - 20 pt W.
Orlando played great and deserves the win - the Spurs perimeter D was slow to nonexistent all night. Those 3pt shots by Orlando were virtually uncontested.
Really? Is that why we beat them in almost every statistical category except three point shooting? Two wide open, point blank misses by Parker and a defensive lapse by Mason gave them the final lead. Facts to back up your "toying" claim please.
The funny thing is your statements make you look like the exact same thing that you are claiming I am except on the opposite end of the spectrum. Could we win it all if the playoffs started today? Probably not. Will we be there by the end of the season? I think we will.That's much better than an obtuse poster with his head buried deep in his own anus. There are too many of them in here.
Give me a ing break... we could have won this game, it's not like we got blown out. Things didn't go our way. It's early January. Get over it.
You should alert the league to this. I've never heard of team purposefully not playing up to their potential to "toy" with the opposition. Man, bombs right there. Maybe some point shaving going on?
Not worried too much, since Orlando won with a freakish 3pt %.
But the weakness in post players continues to be a problem. Oberto, Bonner and Thomas are not good enough. We need another post player who is starter quality. We all know none of those guys would start on any other team in the league.
nice its not everyday that the magic will make 14 3 pointers i thought we played well and showed alot of people we can compete now if e lost by over 10 i think u should make this stupid post but we were winning at some points of the game orlando has that starting lineup for a couple of years and the spurs have there new lineup since this year
when is ginobili going to show up?
why dosent roger mason dont show up till the critical parts of games and not during the whole game?
wednesday is a must win
People claim they hate it but they really love making threads like this.I hate to say it but...
Orlando was out-rebounded, turned the ball over more and shot the ball worse from the field, and the game was within 5 points for almost all 48 minutes... but yeah, other than that, easy win.Orlando won too easily regardless of the score.
[QUOTE=de Soto;3021820]Total BS. Orlando was toying with the Spurs and easily pulled ahead when it counted.
Now that's a BS statement. it was compe ive the entire time but to Orlando's credit and regardless of the reffing, they made the big crunch time plays and Parker missed two easy shots at the end. Nelson was hitting 3's in Parker's face and was playing like he had something to prove.
If we make a couple of misses and not screw up on a couple rotations this thread we'd be the champs right?
Its hard to beat a team that shoots 60%..
I thought last nights game was quite compe ive. Just bad luck is all. Not very often a team shoots 63% from 3.
I tend to agree with you.
There is no such thing as luck in the NBA.

me too we need camby
