Spurs lost game 1 in 2003, 2005, and 2007...

...just sayin' :toast

lol ....

Lost game 2 in 1999

So we have to lose one of the first 2 home games

[honestfool84]

or we can just win 16 in a row, and i'll be satisfied.

[timvp]

Without Ginobili and with rest being at a premium, the Spurs need to take care of business this time around.

[spursfan1000]

haha, well this year is different, we are going to go 16-0. Book it.

+1
I would feel much better myself if the Spurs won these first 2 home games.

[Spursmania]

Please win tonight Spurs.

[Budkin]

I'd rather win tonight please.

[The_Worlds_finest]

I love the optimism 16-0 i wish, I am a huge fan but that is unlikely. If spurs go 16-0 I will go to SA and job in the river myself!!!

[NewJerSpur]

I would love to go into Dallas up 2-0, but it's not like our HCA has been that dominant to the point where it would devastate me if we came out 1-1.

[Summers]

ADS is trying to prevent mass e-suicide if the Spurs lose tonight. I say let 'em jump! :)

[Amuseddaysleeper]

It would be huge for SA to go up 2-0 but I'm not expecting it.

I'll be happy if after game 4 we're at least 2-2.

And then we can close it out in 6!

[mavs>spurs2]

These first 2 games could be key in the series. I like our chances if we steal one on the road, but otherwise it's a dogfight in game 7 IMO.

[Summers]

My stomach's already in knots. It's going to be a good series.

[NewJerSpur]

Mine too. This game can't start soon enough.

[Budkin]

and now... 2009. Let's hope it really is an omen.

[TDomination]

good sign : )

haha, the only i can spin a loss into a positive

[coldsweat]

unlike several of the western conference teams, we are not significantly worse on the road compared to at home. i'm not worried about losing home court advantage, timmy d played well and as long as he's healthy, we'll always be competitive.

[phxspurfan]

I know, but must they do this every time??

[Texas_Ranger]

Spurs had Manu in those years...So now lets just hope Bonner will score 70 points in the second game.

[Agloco]

...just sayin' :toast

Yeah but in those years, they actually played on the defensive end of the court. This team's not going far.

[TampaDude]

No Manu, no chance. The Mavs will sweep. Book it.

[Horse]

This fact really made me feel better. Remember when denver stole game 1 and we came back and won game 2 by 30 and it was never even close again.

[Budkin]

No Manu, no chance. The Mavs will sweep. Book it.

I knew we weren't going to get all that far... but please God... don't let us lose to the damn Mavs again! Please?

[jack sommerset]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Homer thread!

[Budkin]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Homer thread!

Good luck in Portland asshole.

[spursfan1000]

:lmao lets continue this streak.

[mexicanjunior]

No Manu, no chance. The Mavs will sweep. Book it.

Agreed...

[quentin_compson]

There is no way in hell we are losing game 2.
