Mon, 30 Nov 2009 09:23:54 -0500

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 during this wonderful week, take a look after the jump: Here we'll provide information, links and summaries for all the games the Spurs played during the week, so that no one has to miss Po...

Spurs vs. Bucks: Shutting Down Brandon Jennings

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 19:30:50 -0500

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 threes it clearly improves the odds for a Spurs' win because it opens the floor for our guards and Tim. I thought about doing another game diary featuring Bonner, but I just could not subject myself to a...

This Tony Parker Kid Ain't Half Bad After All

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 21:29:00 -0500

Ahhhhhh. We can all breathe a sigh of relief, for one game at least. That was a thorough butt-whooping, and the most complete game we've played to date.I actually had to watch the game on an illegal feed in Chinese (when games are on NBA TV, League Pass Broadband doesn't show them, so if you don't have NBA TV, you're SOL), so with the blurry-ish screen and non-English commentary, it was hard for me to glean specifics from the game. The players were white and blue blobs, respec...

Let's make no mistake, Washington is a team that seems to be in total disarray right now. But it's hard not to feel good about this win.

Manu Ginobili (MAN'-oo jih-NOH'-blee) is out and Tony Parker is listed as doubtful as the injuries woes continue for the San Antonio Spurs. Ginobili won't play Thursday night against Utah after straining his left groin in Wednesday's overtime loss at Dallas.

San Antonio’s Injury Bug

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:00:12 -0500

These days, the Spurs are going to war without two of their biggest stars: “Tony Parker is doubtful and Manu Ginobili is out for Thursday’s home game against the Utah Jazz. Parker missed Wednesday night’s 99-94 overtime loss at Dallas with a sprained left ankle that has been bothering him for more than a week. Ginobili, meanwhile, hobbled off the floor 7:28 into his first start of the season with a strained left groin. Ginobili is set to undergo further tests on the injury Thursday, and...

Premiership Striker Dumped By Wife On Facebook

Sat, 21 Feb 2009 19:28:32 -0500

Somehow, news of one of the greatest breakups of all-time hasn't reached this shore yet, probably because the couple involved isn't particularly notable to American fans. With that in mind, we're going to try and put this in a context a little more familiar: Imagine if Eva Longoria dumped husband Tony Parker with a status update on Facebook ... Getty Images

HERE WE GO!

Thu, 31 Jan 2008 15:17:42 -0500

Hello everyone! Im so excited to be a part of the "yard" and cant wait to hear what Yardbarker fans have to say. This is such a cool way toconnect with fans not only here in Phoenix, but across the US and even my home country of Brazil! We just got back from a 4 game road trip and we were able to win 3 of them which was pretty good. We had a very disappointing loss against Minnesota but followed it up with a huge win against Cleveland. That win was an emotional one because it was so close and I think it gave us some momentum to build on. Were back in Phoenix for 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to being home and in the warmer weather! As you all know the Super Bowl is in Phoenix this year so its been pretty crazy here but a lot of fun. Being from Brazil I've always loved soccer but living here in the US for the past 4 years I've really learned to enjoy football too. Well we have a big game tonight against San Antonio. Were looking to win 2 in a row against them. Tony Parker didnt play the last time and I'm hearing he probably wont play tonight either. But we still have to be careful. Theyve won 4 titles for a reason!

You cheatin' on me, B. Diddy?

I've been hearing that my man Baron Davis, one of the best point guards in the show, who carried the Warriors to the biggest upset in NBA history (yeah, I'm saying it is), is stepping out on me. I read that Baron is having a li'l thang with Teri Hatcher. Yes, Susan from Desperate Housewives! Apparently, the met at Tony Parker and Eva Longoria's wedding reception. Tony Parker hooked them up. Boom Dizzle, you're breaking my heart! C'mon. I thought we had something serious. We're both ballers from SoCal. We kicked it with First Lady Laura Bush at the White House together. We were supposed to have a kid and make her (or him) the best point guard ever ? even better than Sue Bird and Magic Johnson put together. If you're going to cheat on me, at least keep it in France! Don't be spotted in at Hollywood hot spots sharing spaghetti! I'm just playing. Seriously, Baron's my man. You just better be ready for the season. You've got to represent! Be careful. She is Desperate.
