Disagree, but he does make solid points. Golden State all over again?

From never winning a playoff game to upsetting a #1 seed with championship experience? Very doubtful imho. They might get a game or two though.

I thought so too brah, but reading this article made me somewhat change my mind.
Not a fan of Simmons but this is a very solid article

Without Manu and Duncan averaging 7 points a game I wouldn't be surprised if spurs lose in the first round.

And you aren't talking about football I gather. You just want some men around.
Bill Simmons is solid. He might be mistaken, but his reasoning is hard to argue with. Then again, who ever predicted the Spurs to be a 1 seed?

I guess we are out until next year. Oh well.

I believe if the Memphis Girlzzies believed in themselves, they would have manned up and played the Lakers. The Lakers, who lost 5 in a row, barely got by the Kings and SA's b-team, were just too scary for them. These fearless athletes "bravely ran away" and will now get what they have coming to them. Spurs in 5. Simmons sees Barkley get some attention, so he makes his bold prediction. In about two week we'll all know how right he is....wonder how much money he's got on Memphis?

It went great. The Spurs played their hearts out all year and got the #1 seed. The Lakers were complacent and nonchalant all year and ended up in a much easier playoff bracket :lol
Life just isn't fair sometimes :cry

Complacency and nonchalance, the hallmarks of champions :lol
Spurs played their hearts out to the tune of coasting their way to the #1 seed in a stacked WC.
Kobe sure looked complacent the other night when he was crying about the ref being a fucking faggot because the Spurs scrubs were frustrating him.

Is that why Manu was playing in the last game of the year? :cry

You mean a full season ago in a series everyone but lakerfan remembers for Perkins' injury and ridiculous reffing?
I think you should go make another thread about how the Lakers had a good run and it's over.

Injuries and refs....Spurfans stock excuses for everything. You guys never disappoint:lol
Hey, you wanna pick up the slack for that pussy O_V and bet who goes farther, Spurs or Lakers? My money's on LA...will at least one Spurfan sac up?
What's gonna happen is, Memphis will lose badly and everyone is gonna point how retarded they were for blatantly tanking to get the Spurs only to lose.
They will become a joke for it.

lol DD and his momentary minute windows of opportunity to reply or else you're avoiding him.
We're not sitting in the topic waiting incredibly anxious for a reply like you apparently are. You did the same shit with O_V and it was hilarious then, too. The 8 minute gauntlet you put him through, as you aptly described it. Now you've put me through a 20 minute one, I presume? :lol

In both cases, both of you never left the threads :lmao
In fact, you responded to my previous posts in this thread within 1 to 4 minutes. Why the long wait now?:lmao
Not only that, you both are STILL avoiding the bet. 8 minutes, 20 minutes, how much time you need?...I call you out b/c you both are transparent little bitches that won't put anything on the line.

:sleep You don't get respect from me, homie. Nor most spur fans, so once again, shouldn't surprise you that no one cares what a random post Gasol lakerfan challenges you with.
Even if you weren't an honorless post-Gasol laker scumbag, I don't bet on vague made up bullshit like "Whos going further?!?!?!" 2 weeks before we'll even know the second round matchups. You want to bet on a certain game between the Spurs and Lakers, or hell, even a whole series between Spurs and Lakers, I'm game.
After all that talk about how LA got the easiest path without even trying, you sure are acting a big vagina with this "whole playoffs" bet shit.
oh, and about the not responding when you demand stuff, if you notice the timings, it would almost be like I had been posting at work, clocked out, and drove home. Closing the browser doesn't log you out.

You could've summed up that useless diatribe with: "No, I'm afraid to take this bet."
If you talk shit but refuse to back it up, your words are empty.

The Spurs are the #1 seed and have HCA throughout the WC. They also "handled the Lakers this season" according to your buddy O_V, so why the hesitation?
Where's that unbridled Spurfan confidence? Drive for Five, right?

Straight LA vs SA in a 7 game series. I'm a poor college dude with plenty of bills but I got $75 on my boys in Silver and Black. We can mediate through Kori, as you suggested.
If either is eliminated and a series does not occur, bet's off. Thoughts?

Yes, mediation is a necessity, so there is no opportunity for welching/lying.

Doesn't really matter cause the Spurs aren't getting past OKC anyways. And if they do they have zero chance against LA. Definitely one of the weakest number one seeds ever. It's not disrespect it's just truth.
