    John Hollinger and Jeff McDonald per their twitters are reporting that the 2nd round series for the Spurs will have a back to back in games 3 and 4 unless the Clippers win tonight.

    I feel we match up better with the clippers (not scared of grizz either) and the clips are battling a whole string of injuries so with that being said Go Clippers for tonight only...

    Here are McDonald's tweets:

    Like @johnhollinger, hearing Game 3 and 4 of Spurs' next series likely back-to-back unless LAC finishes MEM tonight.
    about 1 hour ago

    JMcDonald_SAEN
    If MEM-LAC goes 7, Game 1 for Spurs is Tuesday at 8:30; Game 2 is Thursday, also at 8:30.

    Latest 2nd round senarios: If LAC wins Game 6 vs Memphis, Game 1 vs. Spurs is Sun at noon; Game 2 is Tuesday at 8:30 ...

    I don't think it matters and the team seemed to play better with less rest winnning both back to back to backs and the 5 in 6 nights.

    I'd rather see the Clips too. The Spurs can beat both teams, but Crack Handoff/Zach Randolph had a monster series last year against the Spurs. Bring on the Clips. Or bring on revenge. I'm ok with both.

    Any other year that news would concern me. I find myself hoping for b2b in the playoffs.

    The way they make the first round last so damn long, then rush the second round is so dumb.

    Well it looks like the Lake(rs) done dried themselves up, but at least they have a fishing boat over on the lower left corner to keep them busy in the offseason. Looks like it needs a little cleaning, but I am sure that there are enough brooms to take care of that task.

    yep, a compressed business-friendly season, but a super drawn-out first round.

    If that happens right there you have a prove of how much the league disrespects the Spurs.
    In 08 with a limping Ginobili coming out of a game 7 against the Hornets the league set the next PO matchup with a b2b in the first 2 games, basically killing any spurs chance to win at LA and making the rest LA had very usefull.
    If there is a b2b in the next round series it should be the first two, giving the Spurs a great edge (beause of the rest and a tired opponent) as they did to them against LA.

    If Clippers win in 7 and Lakers advance too, I don't really see the point of a b2b in games 3 and 4. Both LA teams can play game 4 on Sunday with one playing the afternoon and the other the evening but they can't play both their game 6 on the next Thursday.

    GO CLIPPERS!! Although I'd love to get revenge on Memphis from last year, I don't want any back to backs.

    Go Clips! I hope Blake and Chris aren't too banged up. This is the only time I'll be rooting for the biggest flopper (CP3) in the NBA...

    The deepest team in the league should welcome a B2B in the playoffs.

    I could've sworn after the lockout they,said they were going to give ample breaks between playoff games on account of the crammed regular season. Any team playing a b2b in the playoffs is horseshit.

    Who cares.

    Spurs haven't played in rhythm for like a month. If this team gets gassed with a back to back now then you might as well put Duncan and the rest of the team in a retirement home.

    LA ? That's assuming they can scrape past the Nuggets in Game 7 after being blown out in Game 6, it seems Lakers choke badly on close out games for some reason......

    Phoenix came back and destroyed the Fakers in 2006 when they were down 3-1 to win in 7 .... I hope the Nuggets repeat that tomorrow.

    I would say yes, we are deepera able to rest at home that night and the clips or mem would come with 7 stressfull games under their belt. Almost perfect situation for a rested home team.

    It may also be better as the b2b at the begining of the playoff bracket would leave them tired for their home games.

    Whichever team wins, it amounts to whole hell of lot of basketball in so many days.

    If it's the Clippers and they got to play back-to-back while nursing injuries... that can't be too good.

    If it's the Grizzlies, they can try to slow down the pace but since they ain't as deep as the Spurs, I think pace and execution will inexorably win the series.
    Whoever the Spurs play, I'm of the opinion it goes no longer than 5 games.

    Well, I would assume the B2B is bad news for the team coming out of a 7 game series, not for the fresh, deep and healthy Spurs...
