“Nobody Wants to Help Antoine”, LOL, man, that should be the title of a sitcom!!

As for the sissy looking pads, you try letting 250lb man put his elbow against your back and then lean into you. Those pads probably buy guys like Bosh and Gerald Wallace 10 games a year off the D.L.
FAQ
Why are those guys wearing long sleeves on their non-shooting arms … the only thing I can figure is that it protects their arm as they press it up against the opponent when guarding them .. so that the uniform doesn’t abraid their arm .. ya think ..???
FAQ
Jack Armstrong said the Raptors are “far from being an elite team.. but they are getting there” … playing against a geriatric Spurs team …LOL

uh, low-post guys spend most of the game (at least when they’re on the block) getting kneed/elbowed/forearmed. the pads are so it doesn’t hurt too much, and so they don’t end up peeing blood. holy duh. i guess it’s a good thing they’re worn under the uni, cause you wouldn’t want to ‘look terrible.’
yertu damkule
you douche. spurs have played quite well as late, and while they were coming off a B2B, so were the raps, who were also missing hedo & jose, while the spurs were missing…? do you really think the spurs won’t be in the thick of things in the west, geriatric though they may be?
Arsenalist
Those geriatric Spurs were the hottest team in the league, give credit where it’s due.

That geriatric Spurs team was fully manned, if not fully operational, and can beat any full strength team at will. Our team somehow pulled a rare rabbit out of its arse to beat them and that is something to feel good about.
JJTO
Manu, Paker, and RJ sure aren’t geriatric. Manu smoked us in the fourth Q back in November.

I say a fashion trend or an image thing, now I wonder what AI had to block on his arm sleeve? I was wondering where you can read that tatoo on the ‘net?
jj
i guess charles oakley and dennis rodman did not wear those
The compression sleeve is meant to keep the muscles in the arm warm and it absorbs sweat as a bonus.

Bellinelli wears his to cover the 5 nicoderm patches he sports on his forearm

Spurs are in 4th place (in the Western Conference), sporting an 8 & 2 record in their last ten, and have one more loss than 2nd place Dallas.
They also averaged 103.7 pts in the month of December.
F*@king Geriatrics.

Did you see in one of the timeouts at the end of the game when Evans tapped Jose on the shoulder and ran the opposite way? I thought it was hilarious!
PM
I saw that, freakin funny. That was during one of the crucial late game timeouts too. Those guys have a lot of fun on the bench I think. Apparently POB was knitting Care Bear toques for the whole team as well on the bench.
Nilanka
LOLOLOL! I saw that too! Hilarious! Glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed it.
MC-Brad
Hey so not to fuel any frenzy, but what do you make of POB selling stuff?? does he know hes about to be bought out???

Dude that guy just made half a mill after taxes this year plus having 42 courtside seats for literally seating on his ass the whole year… I wouldn’t worry much if I were him…

The rebounding picture is quite embarassing. Not only is AB in wrong position, Amir is also boxed out by a Spurs player and the guards are just standing there waiting the Spurs to catch it. Marco actually looks like he is already starting to go the other way even though Im pretty sure we didnt catch that rebound (if there was one).

LOL!

Wow, and I thought I was the only one. You guys catch everything!

Looks like good positioning to me. If you can’t get him on your back outside the paint, pin him under the board. You’re not getting the board behind the glass. Bargs may not get the rebound, but it takes the opposition’s centre completely out of the picture. Bargs has been doing a lot of that lately. It won’t show up as a rebound in his stats, but it sure helps the team get the ball.
Is it about time we get over feeling like a jilted lover and just give Vince the credit that he deserves. Get over the way he left us and thank him for helping put this franchise on the map? Come vote and share your two cents. More »
