I've learned the hard way that these "call out" threads don't work. The know-it-all, high post count jackasses are too full of hubris to ever admit that they are wrong. And if they do, it comes attached with a plethora of excuses and caveats.
Also, it's just a message board . . . so, who gives a shit? You are right though. A lot of people talk some shit on here.

not trying to be a dik...

but to clarify...

it is one thing to say...that you have a feeling the spurs are not gonna win it all...or that the spurs need this or that....or even that another team is playing better...

but to state ---as if it were a fact---

that the spurs have no chance---or that they should avoid this team or that one---because they have no chance---

or that they are one and done no matter who they play is kinda lame...IMHO...

Meh.

If the Spurs flame out this round, there will be threads about how this was a wasted season since they didn't win and the Spurs should have just tanked for a higher pick blah blah blah.

Hell, if the Spurs win a championship you'll still get those types of threads.

Who cares? Fans are fans, which means (generally speaking) short sighted and emotionally driven.

By the way, making a general thread to call out everybody, which basically means nobody, ain't gonna cut it...especially since the 2nd round hasn't even started yet.

In March, I wasn't sure they'd make the playoffs, let alone win a series, let alone win a series against a team that was playing better and had a huge emotional investment in winning.

Pop finally played the team the right way in the first round. He kept Bogans, Bonner and Mason out of the starting line-up and started Manu.

This Spurs team has several all star level players that can score and defend in multiple ways. If Pop were to throw in Bogans, Mason or Bonner for etended minutes, or play them at the same time (as he did in the regular season) during the Mavs series, the Spurs would have lost.

lol no one could have predicted this, I expected the Spurs to contend for a title all season and they're doing just that now. They did well in their late season stretch and Parker got plenty of rest for his nagging injuries. Overall, we're riding the wave now and it doesn't look to crest for some time yet.

Everyone who called the Spurs an easy first round exit, or wanted us to tank out of the playoffs for a fucking draft pick should call themselves out publicly and admit to being a bandwagoner.

I imagine some of those geniuses may play for the Spurs. If you thought the Spurs were headed towards a good playoff run earlier this year then you are blind. They weren't playing good basketball, they had no chemistry and no dedication to defense. What they had was a willingness to keep trying.

Please don't start an idiotic thread saying that you were some sort of prophet and knew that the Spurs were going to pull it all together. If you did, it was all based on blind faith and chance. We only have 4 players on this current team that won a ring and that includes Matt Bonner. There was no guarantee that they could get past the first round.

And for the record, I never said they were one and done but I certainly never saw the intensity and competitiveness that the Spurs displayed in round 1. That gives me hope that they can continue to get better. I know this, the Spurs better not look past the team in front of them. This is not the same Suns team from the past. While not as talented as past Suns teams, they have great chemistry and are playing better defense.

No. The lottery pick is better than losing in the WCF to the Lakers.

Math says.

If the Spurs had missed the playoffs, they would have gone into the lottery with the best record of the 14 lottery teams. As such, they would have had about a 1% chance of moving up to a top 3 pick. Otherwise, they would have picked 14th.

You may find a 1% chance at a top three pick worth the price of missing out on a deep playoff run, but you are in a very tiny minority. To your credit, you have maintained that very lonely point of view with very little equivocation. You may be monumentally wrong, but you do have the courage of your convictions.

a) The Spurs have not gone all the way. When and if they do so, you feel free to call whomever you like out.

b) It is possible to be a fan of a team and still think they do not have what it takes to win it all because you are not a blind homer and are willing to admit the team you support has flaws or that another team is possibly playing better.

c) Don't take fan-dom so freaking seriously. You will stress yourself out. If you want to root for the Spurs, do so. Don't worry about calling out other people because you think they are lesser fans than yourself.

Don't tell me about math and %s. I have an engineerinbg degree so I have taken lots of math. A small chance at a top 3 pick is better than no chance and a pick at 20 and getting beat by the lakers.

I have already thought about the %s and still would have rather been in the lottery because I do not believe the spurs will get past the lakers this year.

The higher the draft pick the better the chance to get an impact player which is better for next years team and the future. The spurs need a couple of solid contributers on the fontline and a high draft pick works to get one, the rest of the team is stacked with talent.

Isn't it Dr. Gonzo who literally has to eat shit if the Spurs get to the WCF?

I hope this is put on YouTube.

The Spurs actually got themselves into a great position as far as the draft goes. They've got a relatively low pick with a chance to make a deep playoff run. Some lottery level pick might end up falling to them anyway and they are guaranteed at least two more home games for revenue. That's much better than a 1% shot at the lottery, easily.

As for the OP, did anyone imagine the Spurs doing shit after the all-star break? Pop had chosen a rotation that featured the Centerpiece and Bonner starters. That would have gotten the Spurs swept. Manu not regaining his pre-injury form would have doomed the Spurs anyway. I find it hard to believe anyone could have realistically predicted so many things to fall into play like they did. If you believed, it was blind faith and good for you if you did.

I thought the Spurs were doomed in the first round (if they made it) after watching them have to hack-a-Ben a lottery bound Pistons team just to get the game into OT. No defense, TD struggling, horrible rotations, etc. You can still cheer for the team and watch all the games even if you think they won't do shit in the post season. Many of us will be doing so once Timmy hangs it up.

Let's say the Spurs were to get the first pick in the draft. Who would you have them take that would be an automatic solid front line contributor? Oden, Thabeet, Kwame Brown? The chances of them coming away with a NBA ready big man that would immediately have a big impact might be smaller than the chance of them getting the number one pick.

He said "impact player," not "big." Given Splitter really does appear to be on his way in, and we have Dice, Tim, and Blair on the books for 1 year minimum, we'd have the luxury on focusing on finding a talented 2-3 or 3-4, of whom there are more to choose.

I have to admit I was on-board with accepting our squad was not ready for genuine contention and vying for the lottery, but am pleasantly surprised so far. That said, Phoenix will be tougher than Dallas, and the Lakers may be tougher, still.

A pick at 13 or 14 is better than losing to the lakers in the WCF. Those 6 slots higher could make a big difference in getting an impact center or other player who can come in next year.

I doubt there's anyone available in the draft to counter what the Lakers got, even if we were to get a top 3 pick.

The Gasol trade changed everything, it allowed the Lakers to leapfrog the NBA's competition dynamics for years to come.

Unless the Spurs or anyone else can get a player as perfectly matched, versatile and highly-skilled as Gasol for FREE, without giving up anything or going through the lottery, I doubt anyone can catch up. It doesn't mean we shouldn't hope or try, but just look how utterly predictable these playoffs have become.

And don't think the Lakers won't improve in the offseason. Look how they're rolling now, even with Derek Fisher as their point guard.

I agree the Gasol trade pushed the lakers to the top but they can be beaten in the next year or two depending on what the spurs or another team does to improve their team.

I don't have too much faith in the Spurs front office to get it done by what I have seen from them. the spurs need help on the frontline and the spurs year after year can't improve in that area instead relying on over the hill type players.

...or maybe I will be like you----someone who does NOT believe at any time---praises the lakers ---shits on EVERY move the spurs make---never gives credit to the spurs ---and is just waiting for them to fail---

hell you waited for me to fail and bumped my earlier post---just so you could continue your NEGATIVE campaign---

and----worst of all---at the end of the day---YOU CALL YOURSELF A SPURS FAN!!!!

my post congratulating the suns organization was in response to a lot of spurs bashing and also to give props to Pop and his influence on the nba and nba front offices---

but---I will still be pulling for a miracle

whether geniuses/experts like you like it or not

Had the Spurs been successful...how many more "where are the geniuses" posts would you have made to berate the fans that didn't believe this team could win a title? Your post is nothing more than sour grapes that the realists on this board were right and you weren't. Just because we saw flaws in the team that were too much to overcome for a title...it doesn't make us anymore or less of a Spurs fan than you.

ok...you are smarter /better than me because you counted out the spurs early...

and the original post was about the people who said the spurs were---1 and done---

but the spurs are in the 2nd round---was i wrong to state the obvious---you still said the spurs would be out in the first round and you were wrong and you are STILL trying to inject more negativity ....

you are smarter and better and you were right...ok?
