The "Dirty Spurs" "Cheap shot Rob"?

Question

Why would Jealous people Stoop so low as to insult the best team in the NBA SA Spurs? Do you think they'll win tonight?

Answer 1

Jazz fans have nothing to complain about. Yes, the Ginobili flops and creates fouls and Bowen grabs and shoves when the refs are not looking. Matt Harpring does both. Deron Williams flopped several times trying to draw charges on Tony Parker and other Spurs. The Collins twin at center (Jason/Jarron - who cares which) has made his reputation flopping against power players like Shaq and Duncan. All this flopping may not be fun to watch on an opposing team, but Jazz fans don't complain when their own players are doing it.

The same argument would apply to last series' complaints by Suns fans. Marion flops in the post when guarding bigger players and Diaw will flop against anyone. Nash dangerously makes it a practice of sliding under airborne players to draw charges with his former MVP cache. Diaw and Bell also grab with the best of them when playing D. Diaw, Matrix, and Stoudemire also all move and hold with impunity on their vaunted pick and roll.

Suns fans are bitter about losing Amare and Diaw for a game. The fact is, however, that Horry did not hit Nash nearly as hard as Nash reacted.

It was Nash's acting in an attempt to clear up any uncertainty as to Horry's subsequent suspension for the intentional hit that drew the concern and anger of his teammates over Horry's "elbow."

Horry actually forearmed Nash out of bounds after failing to draw the charge. Clearly an intentional foul and a borderline flagrant, but not enough to knock Nash off his feet and flailing as he reacted. Without Nash's overdramatization of the foul, his teammates would not have felt compelled to leave the bench.

It was Nash's overracting that lost the Suns that series, not Horry's "cheap shot" and not David Stern applying a consistently applied rule.

If you want to discuss an instance of an inconsistently applied rule, the "unnatural basketball act" would come to mind. As Lebron James' elbow to Chris Webber's head was clearly not in his natural shooting motion, intentional or not. This no-call was later upgraded to a Flagrant-2 foul but no suspension. Kobe Bryant was suspended twice during the season for the same act - once bc Stu Jackson had never seen such an act before (but Lebron would soon repeat it) and once bc the precedent had already been set by the first suspension (and broken on James' elbow). It should be noted that none of the recipients of the hits felt that either James or Bryant committed them intentionally and Bryant's action were described as elbows but were clearly open hands, unlike James' actual elbow contact with Webber's face.

Answer 2

I guess Horry took a cheap shot in all four of the Spur's wins over the Suns, oh wait, no he didn't. I think the Spurs beat the Suns before the "cheap shot". I wonder why no one is making a big deal about Fisher's cheap shot against Ginobili. Now, to answer the question. You answered you own question when you wrote the word jealous. Alot of people whose teams lose are in denial, and need excuses to justify statements such as, "Naw cuz the Suns would beatin the hell outta Jazz". If you write and spell like a 3rd grader, people will assume you are a 3rd grader, or at least have the education of a 3rd grader, and take your statements as seriously as they would take a 3rd grader's. And yes the Spurs will win tonight, Pop's Spurs are 20-7 in close out games.

Answer 3

I didn't even think the Horry-Nash thing was a big deal. Don't people know that most of the players over dramatize when they are knock down, etc. DRAMA. I don't know why but people have always bashed the Spurs, for years. They are the best team in the NBA and the Best Guy's in the NBA.

Answer 4

clever businessmen, undesirable artists. seems however could be only coincidental and much less of a gimmick granted the guy is truthfully a functioning and gifted musician. MA2: Fall Out Boy won craploads of undesirable press and average hatred as persons theory Pete Wentz exchange into no longer something better than a particularly face with teen allure used for merchandising. the fact of the situation is that he's the standard lyricist as wellbeing their undesirable bassist and as a result contributes lots to the band on an entire/ MA3: something by employing the Dandy Warhols, yet likely, " Odditorium Or Warlords Of Mars"

Answer 5

Becaus eof what horry did to nash, a cheap shot I my add, that resulted to the suspension of Amare and diaw the question of "what if" wil be forever be debated. What if Amare and diaw was not suspended? would it have been the suns thrashing the Jazz. The spurs win the series against the suns even with amare and diaw playing game 5? who knows that all because horry can't stand getting kicked *** by nash.

Answer 6

yeah
and i hope BIG SHOT rob will hit a game winning shot for old times sake
just to hear that
"KICKED OUT TO HORRY, FOR THE THREEEEEEE, GGOOOODDDD!!!! 99-98 SPURS WIN AND ARE GOING TO THE NBA FINALS!" would be awesome

Answer 7

I like it dirty. Spurs in a blowout.

Answer 8

hell naw they aint the best team in the NBA its the suns. if it wasnt for robs dumb *** cheap shot the suns would be killin the jazz rite now

Answer 9

the spurs will win it cuz fisher might not be playing or might check in late plus deron williams is hurting....the spurs might not need their dirty play to win this one....

Answer 10
