Game Preview #11: Washington Wizards @ San Antonio Spurs
Good with a little bit of yogurt and OJ in a smoothie   Why the picture of fruit, Cap?  Because this is what I feel like doing: blowing razzberries, Bronx cheer , whatever you want to call it.  And I'm out of beer.  And the sports gods really, really hate me.  ...

This Week In San Antonio Spurs Basketball: Saturday 3-Game Losing Streak Desensitizer
Tim C. made the logo for hacks like me who don't release TWSS on its supposed Friday schedule, so thanks Tim.  Anyway, we have our first (and hopefully last) three-game losing streak in the bag, we're depressed as hell but that doesn't mean we won't care about basketball in ...

Stat of the Game: -20.5: Also, Matt Bonner Makes My Head Hurt
After last night's game, I was really not sure of what stat to use.  I considered writing about how every time the Spurs were on the verge of making a run, they gave up a three point play or an offensive rebound.  This game could really be summed up by the phrase, "momentum ...

Jazz @ Spurs - Second Half Thread
Well guys, it could be worse.  Look for nothing after the jump. There will be no halftime fish tonight.  Hipuks is invoking the karma busting two loss rule.  If you have a problem with that, just remember what he posted last night.  Eeeew.   GO SPURS GO!  ...

Spurs @ Mavs: Stats of the Game
I really don't want to write this.  Let's all swallow our medicine after the jump.... Here is the full boxscore . The Spurs were: -22 FG attempts (78 to 100). I don't know how we got to overtime with that stat alone.  It's not like we were sharpshooting out there (43.6 %). ...

Unofficial Spurs/Mavs Recap
That was a tough game to lose.  There are some really good signs from last nights game, but one thing that is really not good is the loss of Manu Ginobili .  I haven't heard if he's going to be out for an extended period or if everything was just precautionary last night.  Let's ...

Ginobili out; Parker doubtful
Ginobili out; Parker doubtful Tim has this in his game preview, but it bears repeating, if only so everyone can concentrate on sending powerful woo-woo healing vibes Manu-ward (and TP-ward, too, y'all, let's be fair!). [Update by ATS] This, Manu out and Tony doubtful as reported by ...

First off, just wanted to say sorry for the lateness on this. I try to get them up the morning of game days but had to do some 'honey dos' before I could play, hehe. Outcome after the jump. Virtual Dirk lit us up for 27! Well, I didn't think this day would come and it has and I ...

Game Preview #9 - San Antonio Spurs @ Dallas Mavericks
Didn't we just do this dance 2 games(but 7 days) ago?  Sure - we beat Dallas at home a week ago.  We then followed that by losing to Oklahoma City, also at home.  Meanwhile, Dallas has played 3 games since we beat them, and won every time.  Also, they're going to throw some ...

In Praise of Complementary Players
Complementary players are not those who sit at the end of the bench and say "nice shot" a lot (those would be complimentary players). No, we're talking about players whose skill sets complement the team's stars. They fill a niche, maybe two, without getting in the way. They add without ...
