I think so.Personally for me it was.To go into boston and come out of there with a win is huge.Especially since i thought the celtics played at a very high level.You could tell the celtics wanted this one bad,especially after losing to the lakers the other night.

The win over the suns on christmas day was very sweet.So was the win over the lakers last month,but this one gets my vote.A road win against the best team in the east imo.How sweet is that.

Know what's amazing to me? The Spurs have been involved in at least 3 games where natiional announcers have called it "the best game of the season"

tough call.

I think findng a way to beat the lakers will pay more dividends later than beating an eastern conference team......even if they are the champs.

Even though...this was a great win yesterday over the Celts!

I still think the best win of the year was the first game against the Rockets back in November.

They were down double digits in the fourth quarter and found a way to win, 77-75.

The Spurs were without Tony and Manu that game and George Hill and Mason step up big time around TD.

I believe a win like that under those circumstances against a good team has given the team confidence and allowed Pop to trust Mason, Hill, and Bonner as the season progressed.

The sweetest was the first win in Phoenix.

The best win, I don't know. The Lakers win was probably more important. We had to prove we could still beat anybody.

Laker win, because it was against a better team.

I'd have to say "yes" too. The Lakers game is a close second place, followed by the home win versus the Hornets. Buzzer beaters against the Suns of the world and NJ's don't impress me. They should never be that close. Boston is the biggest quality road win.

Hell, Cleveland is a farce too. They are the 3rd best team in the East. Maybe the second now that Orlando lost Nelson. A win in Cleveland would be solid but not a statement maker.

A statement maker is blowing out the Lakers or beating them by at least 8 or 10 on the road. They are playing their game better than we are playing ours right now.

I have no doubt we can beat them but we need to improve on the boards and on defense.

IMO the best win will be the win that brings us the rings in June...but for now, I'd say the Celts win was bigger, only because it's a little later in the season, and that Laker win was kind of ruined for me after LA beat us so bad on their turf. But no worries...we'll get em in the playoffs.

The Lakers win was bigger IMO; it was over a rival, and LA is a way better team than Boston this season. The Celtics' second unit is trash, and will be exposed in the Finals or the ECF.

As i've said all along the Spurs and the Lakers are the best two teams in the NBA and have been for years now. All the others are pretenders who get luchy sometimes like last year when the Lakers imploded like a bunch of pussiies from Dallas Academy. :rollin

I would say that beating Boston has been the best win so far since it was on the road with the Lakers game a close 2nd.
