Sunderland boss Roy Keane moved a step closer to achieving the signings of a quartet of players from Tottenham Hotspur after meeting the players involved over the weekend. Keane is excited and confident of the transfers going through in what must be a unique transfer at this level. In fact I can’t recall a deal quite [...]

There are a couple things I really like about guard Roger Mason. One he is a young guy with a tremendous amount of upside, good practice habits, and a great attitude. He also just happens to be from local high school Good Counsel, my dad's Alma mater. That's why I was upset to hear that the Spurs had offered Mason a 2 year deal worth 7.3 million dollars that the Wizards were unable to match. U

According to the Sun newspaper Tottenham Hotspur have agreed a deal with Barcelona for wonder kid Giovani Dos Santos worth £12million. The 19 year old Mexican is said to favour a move to White Hart Lane despite ongoing interest from Europe’s top clubs. It would be a remarkable feather in the cap for Juande Ramos if [...]

Recordista em aparições nas Finais da NBA, com 28 disputas de títulos da Liga, o Los Angeles Lakers chega à sua decisão de número 29 após derrotar o atual campeão San Antonio Spurs por 100 a 92 na quinta partida da série final da conferência Oeste, amparado numa apresentação épica do astro Kobe Bryant, cestinha [...]

                      It is hard to put a finger on, but it seemed like in this playoff series, San Antonio - no matter how hard they tried - could not find a solution to Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant (then again, who can?).  Thursday night’s game between the Lakers and Spurs wouldn’t be any different.  [...]

Spurs provavelmente ganham o Spread de +8, mas não quero arriscar. Se perderem este jogo, os playoffs estarão perdidos para eles. Se não ganharem, perderão por, no máximo, 5 pontos, a meu ver. Com um Handicap de 15 pontos posso enganar-me três vezes. A média de pontos em San Antonio é de 185,5 entre estas 2 [...]

  The Spurs were forced to win last night at the AT&T Center, but they missed the chance to even things with the Lakers, and so Los Angeles took an important victory and left the series 3-1 with the next match being at the Staples Center.  Nobody can deny that San Antonio fought with everything they could, [...]

Ok so if you are a Spurs fan you are probably irate right now that your team is down 3-1 in this series. During the final moments of last nights game the refs blew a call that would’ve at least given the Spurs to the chance to tie the game.  Brent Barry got the inbound pass [...]

                      The Los Angeles Lakers, in their game against the San Antonio Spurs, proved why they may be the class of the Western Conference this season; they held the Spurs to 40% shooting from the floor, and as a result, Los Angeles held off San Antonio 93-91 at AT&T Center.  Los Angeles, with the win, take a [...]

Man, I swear these damn Lakers are going to give me a heart attack. We were up 7 with less than a minute to go and after bad, bad clock management by the Lakers, the Spurs end up with the ball with 2 seconds in the game. Brent Barry, killing us all night from the 3 point line, misses the 3 point buzzer beater. For those of you who watched the game, GREAT no call on Fisher. Barry shied away fro

Mei Hoe surprised me by bringing her old x-ray films, which I thought she would forget about it.

Lakers 84 - Spurs 103: It was only a matter of time before the struggling Manu Ginobili broke out of his slump and got back on track. In the first two games he struggled through injuries, frustration and plenty of missed shots but in game 3 he came back with 30 points to [...]

                       The San Antonio Spurs accomplished two things Sunday night in their game against the Los Angeles Lakers.  Firstly, their main scoring threat from off the bench, Manu Ginobili, finally broke out of his series-long scoring slump.  Secondly - and most importantly - San Antonio managed to keep a sizeable lead as they manhandled Los Angeles [...]

The Spurs got back on track and beat the Lakers 103-84 to make it a 2-1 series lead for the Lakers. The Spurs had it going tonight; Manu was back and he made lots of jumpers. I thought that the Spurs would come out with lots of energy, but it took a bit of time for them to get going. I think once they were able to run and get Manu open jumpers, everyone was very confident.I saw a couple of things

Spurs 71 - Lakers 101: It took a comeback in the first game for the Lakers to win in game 1, that wasn’t the case in game 2 though. The Lakers played as a team and really rocked the Spurs in this one, at the beginning of the season I never would’ve thought [...]

                                                       Unlike the majority of NBA teams, the San Antonio Spurs value continuity and stability - especially as far as their coach is concerned; according to Mike Monroe of the San Antonio Express-News, team owner Peter Holt has signed current coach Gregg Popovich to a 2-year extension which would

                               Home-court advantage has been the buzz-word in this season’s version of the NBA playoffs; in other words, the teams that have made it to this juncture of the playoffs have had great success on their home courts.  Friday’s game between the San Antonio Spurs and Los Angeles Spurs illustrated that point very well; the Lakers h

In what ended up being a blowout game, the Lakers beat the Spurs 101-71. The Lakers got the rust of their first quarter game and executed terrifically throughout the game. The root of the Spurs problem is the health of Manu Ginobili. He didn't look great in the first half, but he showed some signs in the second.The Spurs need to put all the time and resources they can into making sure Manu is 100%

Aqui vai mais uma aposta centrada nos jogadores, porque parece ser o único tipo de apostas onde vejo algum valor apesar das odd’s serem ligeiramente mais baixas. Desta vez vou me centrar em T. Parker. O pequeno base dos Spurs tem caminho aberto nesta série frente aos Lakers para fazer grandes jogos. E hoje espero que [...]

Heres some highlights from the Spurs and Lakers game 1.  These highlights really just feature Kobe Bryant though and little Pau Gasol on the side.

                                          Wednesday’s game between the San Antonio Spurs and Los Angeles Lakers appeared, at first glance, to have the makings of an ambush by the Spurs.  But as has been typical for this year’s playoffs, Kobe Bryant, like Mighty Mouse, saved the day for the Lakers.  Bryant scored 25 second-half points, leading

The Associated Press reported Tuesday that the San Antonio Spurs celebrated their series win in over the New Orleans Hornets Monday night, by sleeping on the team’s chartered plane. The Spurs plane had mechanical problems and could not fly.  Spurs team spokesman Cliff Puchalski says the team could not find hotel rooms in New Orleans (You don’t think [...]

                                    The San Antonio Spurs, like the Boston Celtics and a few other NBA teams, have their version of the “Big Three” - Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.  And more often than not, one of them winds up being the hero whenever the Spurs emerge victorious.  In Monday’s game against the New Orleans Hornets,

The Spurs shot better from downtown and from the line. Manu Ginobili even shot better from three-point territory than all the Hornets combined. They also grabbed more rebounds (offensive and defensive), and they dished out more assists than the overrated Hornets. It is no surprise that they won. They managed to limit David West to 20 points, which is what they needed to win at New Orleans Arena. A

In a surprisingly close game, the Spurs beat the Hornets 91-82 to win the series 4-3. The Spurs played great throughout almost the entire game. Near the end of the game, the Hornets were fueled by a hot streak from Pargo. The problem was Chris Paul didn't have any heroics in the bag. He is a good offensive player, but doesn't have enough individual game to propel them past the Spurs.Again, I recor

Chegamos hoje ao jogo decisivo. Jogo 7 como eu já previra numa pick anterior. Penso que hoje pode cair para qualquer um dos lados, como podemos ontem ver no jogo dos Boston frente aos Cleveland. Vou-me afastar dos spreads e dos totais e vou concentrar a minha aposta num jogador: Tyson Chandler. A Bwin oferece uma linha [...]

                   If anyone who saw Game 6 between the San Antonio Spurs and New Orleans, especially in the fourth quarter when Hornets forward David West was the victim of a hard pick by Spurs forward Robert Horry, you could come to one of two conclusions: one being that the pick was a legal albeit hard pick, or the [...]

So before game 6, Spurs Coach Gregg Popovich was already talking about game 7. What happened to taking it one game at a time? I don’t know if this was a strategy of the Spurs going into this game or not but during the 3rd quarter the whole team took a page out of the [...]

So now the question is did the San Antonio Spurs just extend their series against the New Orleans Hornets by one more game Thursday night? Or was this the breakthrough game that the defending NBA Champions have been waiting for all series? We will all find out the answer to those question on Monday as [...]

Yes, for the Big Spurs! The playoff series is now tied and up for game 7. Just a moment ago, I was fetching information via Yahoo sports live scoreboard and I was a bit surprised that my team, San Antonio Spurs wins and leading the score of 19 points.Spurs made a great play in the first half and ended it with 36 points, whereas 24 points was made by Hornets. The second half was a bit crucial for
