Expecting the Friday TWSS? I'm afraid we couldn't find the time for it. It should be back next Friday/Saturday, in some way or shape - and it will have twice as many random links, so take heart in that.
In the meantime, if you want to know what happened to our Spurs...

So, Matt Bonner had a nice game. Let's just get that out of the way. He made his threes and did not penetrate as often which cut down his mistakes. He still was at times awful defensively and could not box out a chair if it had wheels, but when he makes his...

Looking at him, Matt Bonner might be the most unimpressive player in the NBA, but the guy can shoot, as evidenced by his 6 of 8 performance from 3PT range in the Spurs’ 112-98 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. On the season, Bonner has hit 26-55 (47%) from deep and will make...

Line of the Night: Matt Bonner (1.13). Life is kinda like a box of chocolates; you’re trying to figure out what the hell is inside them and then Matt Bonner shows up to your house and starts bombing three pointers all over the place. Ok, it’s been a while since I’ve seen that...

Another night, another Eastern Conference team, another convincing victory. Excluding the last 5 minutes of the first half, this was another thoroughly dominant performance by the Spurs. We won pretty much every statistical category, and we just outworked and outhustled a good team...

Kelly Dwyer astutely points out what is very obvious to most fans: we are missing our 2nd and 3rd best players. That will wreak havoc with any team, but especially a team that relies on 3 very unique and gifted players. This is what makes games like last week's win over Dallas...

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...

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...

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...

We cleared an important hurdle by beating the Mavs in convincing fashion and got just a wee taste of delicious revenge as a bonus. The Oklahoma City Thunder pose a test of a different sort. Now is no time to let up. If we win this one, we have our first 3-game winning streak of...

Ah. Last night's game was like catching up with an old friend you haven't seen in a long time. And you don't even realize how long it's been until you're finally sitting down face to face, rehashing the old stories, laughing at the same silly inside jokes that cracked...

Now that's more like the Spurs I know and love. Scoring 131 points is fun, but pushing Dirk and the Princess Ponies around for 4 quarters is just MORE fun.
