It's nearly gametime, and I didn't have time for anything too elaborate - so I decided it was high time PTR got in touch with its inner hack.

Spurs 113, Hornets 96 (Spurs 1-0, 1st in Division, T-1st in Conference)
Well that was just all kinds of awesome. I'm not sure if it's possible to have more fun with clothes on than it will be to watch a Spurs game this season. In fact I won't make any promises whatsoever...

Sure, the Hornets don't look that good. Sure, I'm still mad I couldn't go to the game last night. Sure, I feel lousy. Sure, I'm rundown and tired. I STILL couldn't go to sleep last night after that game. I STILL can't stop thinking...

First, if you didn't see the Quick Cap by ATS, our bench outscored theirs 30-0 in the first half. That is the stat of the game (but not the Stat of the Game). That is the type of stat that keeps you up at night so you are late to work the next morning. There...

did not send these photos to Wayne for his game analysis. They are just for fun!
We likely won't see this clean-shaven face for another month, if he's true to his word.

PtR Quick Cap: Spurs bench mauls Hornets in 113-96 scrappy doo-ing.

The Hornets got out to a quick 12-6 lead. Manu Ginobili, coming off the bench, and the rest of the second unit took over and it was 39-20.
Yep, they went on a 33-8 run and pretty much iced the game right there, and cruised to the 113-96 win(box score). For the...

The Warriors would like Manu Ginobili from the Spurs, but I can't see the Spurs parting with Manu.
No kidding there. You know who would work though? Mason and Bonner. That's who. However, in this market to take...

The Spurs 2010 season FINALLY starts on Wednesday. I say finally because I have been stoked ever since the trade for Jefferson on June 23rd. I sat and watched us snag DeJuan Blair in the draft. I read about us signing Antonio McDyess. I sat, in an uncomfortable...

Hey, look! It's opening night! Are the Spurs playing? Of course not!!! That's how the NBA has treated the Spurs, and will continue to do so, so get over it.

Caja had their first EuroLeague game, and possibly as a sign of things to come, they got drubbed 77-65. And it wasn't that close. They knocked 9...

The first post I did at PtR was a season preview two years ago. It was a long rambling mess. Just a mess. I'm glad I can't find a copy of it. One part that I did like, though, was the schedule analysis. I tried to find the easy parts of the...

And then there were 15.
The Spurs have announced that Marcus Williams has been waived. Considering Malik Hairston's play and the fact Marcus didn't play in the last couple preseason games, this isn't a surprise.
