nice block, batum...

...kaboom!!!

 

[PapaG]

Wow, incredible block by Batum. Then Rudy hits the three after the bad Batum shot!

 

[KingSpeed]

I love Rudy. I trust him out there more than any player on our team, maybe even including Roy.

 

[Nate4Prez]

haha, win the jump Rudy

 

[Haakzilla]

Why is Webster wearing his mouthpiece???

 

[PapaG]

Catch that exchange? Duncan already respects Rudy. That reaction after the jump ball was priceless.

 

[Nate4Prez]

Baaatttttooooooooommmm!

 

[DUB]

Loved the crowd cheering "Rudy! Rudy!" when he entered the game.

The Rudy chants are great.

 

[KingSpeed]

BATUM!!!!!!!! "A Star Is Born!"

 

[PapaG]

I love Rudy. I trust him out there more than any player on our team, maybe even including Roy.

The comforting thing about this statement is that I know you are not one to express hyperbole!

 

[DUB]

Sweet finish by Batum!

 

[dpc]

Rejecteddddd

 

[PapaG]

Ummm...

how about Outlaw/Rudy/Batum on the floor together. Wow!

 

[VenomXL]

This second unit is looking good. Starters are taking it easy on the bench, sipping the Gatorade. Nothing better than that.

 

[Nate4Prez]

Ummm...

how about Outlaw/Rudy/Batum on the floor together. Wow!

and Joel to that and you have the best 2nd unit in the NBA

 

[Haakzilla]

...our FG% is terrible!!!

 

[VenomXL]

I think Batum is earning his way back into the starting lineup with this performance so far.

 

[KingSpeed]

Sucks that Bayless isn't out there.

 

[PapaG]

I think Batum is earning his way back into the starting lineup with this performance so far.

1-4 FG, 1 block, 1 assist, 2 pf in 8 minutes?

He's doing fine, but let's not go overboard.

 

[maxiep]

...our FG% is terrible!!!

That's what SA does. However, we're shooting more shots, so when the FG heads north we should be fine.

 

[VenomXL]

Can't hit a thing, we're lucky to be tied right now.

 

[PapaG]

Rudy is SO quick to the loose balls.

 

[Nate4Prez]

1-4 FG, 1 block, 1 assist, 2 pf in 8 minutes?

He's doing fine, but let's not go overboard.

Does that help?

 

[KingSpeed]

Batum= rookie of the year

 

[PapaG]

Wow, great play by BATUM! What a spark!

 

[PapaG]

Batum= rookie of the year

Come on now.

 

[VenomXL]

Penalty time already, nice!

 

[Nate4Prez]

Come on now.

Yeah, probably co-rookie of the year with Oden and Rudy

 

[B-Roy]

I bet the Spurs are pissed off they didn't get Batum!

 

[VenomXL]

Wow, how long has Brandon been on the bench? Four point lead against the Spurs with your best player taking an extended break? I'll take it.
