Although the Spurs have a harder remaining schedule (see link), they have the odds to hold onto the #1 seed based on winning percentages against remaining opponents and adding a home/away factor.

Of course, there are no guarantees - but it should be noted that if the Spurs aren't able to hold their lead, then, they will not have the requisite momentum to win a championship.

In any event, we will be rooting for the class team - the Spurs - and predictable meltdowns by the Fakers without any real guard play and the amusing ChokeKing Mavs will make this post season very entertaining.

Update: My bad, I was looking at an older article - ooops.

The reality is much better per link:

Wow, that link has some amazing stats. I had no idea the Spurs had to play 2 road games in Philly and Chicago on the season.

Fail.

Link goes to an article from 2008. (was changed; first link went to an ESPN article)

WTF?

By my count, we DO play only 7 sub-500 teams out of 21 games left; however, there are only 5 sub-500 teams in the west currently.

LA only plays 5 sub-500 teams.
