Very hard indeed. It´s the most "extreme" case? How many teams have this kind of schedule this week?

there a bunch of teams that have 4 games this week.
Charlotte, Cleveland, Indiana, L.A. Lakers, Minnesota, New York, Oklahoma City, Philadelphia and Sacramento.

[FeZZy]

Who cares look at that schedule the only team we "should" worry about is Miami the rest blowouts

[Muser]

Scrub teams.

[boutons_deux]

just another reason why the NBA money-spinning sucks hind tit

[Chomag]

All these teams other then possibly Miami are below .500 which means. Which means Spurs fodder. And people are still complaining....

[TDMVPDPOY]

all those games are winnable

I don't understand Lipitor and Vasotec.

I agree and like the idea of the team continuing to get it all together before facing tougher opponents. I'm looking forward to every game.

[Chieflion]

I am more worried about the Wizards and Raptors, especially the Raptors. They have finally been winning.

[murpjf88]

These should all be wins. None of these teams should beat us. But, then again, who knows these days.

[EricB]

The spurs have played a lot less games than the rest ofthe other teams so they were due to make it up sometime...

Playing more often IMO will be good for them, get into a tad bit more of a rythum and build off the solid win Sunday.

[DPG21920]

Yeah, they have to make up the games, but I wish it would be more balanced. I hated the Spurs had so many days off between games to start the season.

I agree, since so many days early on in-between games just caused rust and a lack of consistency on the court. But, now the schedule will become more difficult (road heavy) and the team will need to gel, build cohesion and consistency.

[dbestpro]

Here's a way to make that bench matter. Just play all the games in a row, 82 straight. Then everyone will be able to complain equally. Of course no LA then NY games could happen. Just imagine the tongue wagging.

[raspsa]

Hopefully Spurs get enough of a cushion so Pop can manage minutes of the Big 3.

[Bukefal]

....and we're going to win them all.

[ForeignFan]

....and we're going to win them all.

We'd better! Including Miami

[silverblackfan]

Actually, I have been looking forward to the stretch where we catch up with the other teams in games played. By the time they play Toronto, everyone should be in a pretty good rhythm.
I think the bench is deep enough that Pop can get everyone rest and still handle the teams we need to beat.

[alchemist]

Unless you're playing the Nets or Wolves there aren't anymore gimmes in the League right now. People fail to understand this.

But I look forward to the Spurs playing every other day especially on the road, the Portland game was a huge wake up call and I liked their energy these past 2 games.

[wijayas]

Very hard indeed. It´s the most "extreme" case? How many teams have this kind of schedule this week?

Nope. Spurs has only played 28 games--the lowest amount of games played in the league. So there is some catching up to do.

Hopefully Spurs can live up to its " reputation" of beating the scrub teams... :-)

On paper, we should win the Miami game. They are on back-to-back after their visit to New Orleans the night before.

[ploto]

All teams go through parts of their schedule like this. The Raptors have already done 6 games in 9 nights 2 or 3 times this season. They get to play in Boston the night before the Spurs play in Toronto.
