Yup, the Spurs are in a class of thier own.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Huh, how did the Giants beat the seemingly indomitable Pats?

[Mark in Austin]

:toast

Bill Simmons might have just committed hari kari.

[exstatic]

We call it "smashmouth football". You win (or lose) the big games in the trenches.

Suns > Patriots

[timvp]

Defense wins championships.

:hat

[Nikos]

Didn't the Pats have a better regular season defense ;) ?

[duncan228]

I love the fact that the Spurs have won every time they've gotten to the Finals.
It adds to the over-all joy of their accomplishments.

[timvp]

Didn't the Pats have a better regular season defense ;) ?Patriots peaked too early. You can never say that about a Pop coached Spurs team :lol

[ShoogarBear]

That was almost the equivalent of the Spurs losing the series to the Cavs.

[Avitus1]

Hell Yes, Go Spurs, lets make it 5!

[txstr1986]

That was fucking awesome.

[VaSpursFan]

Patriots peaked too early. You can never say that about a Pop coached Spurs team :lol

:lol @ this thread.

Don't jinx it Timvp, the NBA season isn't yet over...it could become 4-1>3-1

[ShoogarBear]

Eh, 4-1 is still > 3-1.


:hatYeah, but it would suck mightily if the "1" was to the Celtics.

[Russ]

Tim Duncan > Tom Brady. :)

[T Park]

Id equate losing to New York in the SB to losing to New Jersey in the Finals.

Good enough but shouldn't have.

[Obstructed_View]

I'm just glad to never have to hear "Patriots of the NBA" again.

[timvp]

Yeah, but it would suck mightily if the "1" was to the Celtics.True enough.

Although I'm not sure how much "better" I'd be to lose against the Mavs, Lakers or ..................... Suns.

:depressed

[Obstructed_View]

I'd rather be in the lottery than lose in the playoffs, especially the finals.

[ShoogarBear]

True enough.

Although I'm not sure how much "better" I'd be to lose against the Mavs, Lakers or ..................... Suns.

:depressedThe Bad: That would suck.
The Good: That would still keep 4-0 intact.

[timvp]

The Bad: That would suck.
The Good: That would still keep 4-0 intact.I don't know ... Mike D'Antoni celebrating after finally beating the Spurs would be extremely hard to stomach.

" :madrun Let's go, c'mon, Let's go, Let's go, c'mon ... Yeah we win! I knew we could beat the Spurs! Let's go Stevie, on to the next round, c'mon."








:vomit:

[ShoogarBear]

Good point. Exclude the Suns, then.

[1Parker1]

True enough.

Although I'm not sure how much "better" I'd be to lose against the Mavs, Lakers or ..................... Suns.

Ehh, that be in the WCF or WCSF, not the NBA Finals. It's always worst I think to come out as the 2nd best team in the league...losing to the champ because a team comes so close and far and there can only be one winner. It sucked that the Spurs lost to the Mavs in 06...but I'd have been about 100X more pissed if the Spurs had gone to the Finals and gotten beat.

[timvp]

All I know is the Spurs aren't going to lose to the Heat in the Finals after having a 2-0 lead in the series.

:smokin

[spursfan09]

Now the Pats will be compared to the Mavs instead of the Spurs.

I feel the same. Every year, I'd rather the Spurs not make the Finals than get there and lose. I couldn't handle that.

Not to mention a nice lead late in Game 3. :)

No because the Pats have won 3 championships and didn't lose in the first round... :lmao

[Joe Schmoogins]

I think this thread is ridiculous. Lol @ spurs fans who are happy the pats lost so that the Spurs own the title as greatest sports dynasty of the 21st century. Don't get me wrong, I was going for the Giants for the very same reason, but it is still hilarious.

[BonnerDynasty]

But but but.. The Pats are still a DYNASTY and the Spurs are not!

There are a lot of reasons to be happy the Patriots lost. Principal among them is the end of comparisons between them and the Spurs, at least for me. A classless organization led by a classless coach doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as far as I'm concerned. Glad to have any reason to tap dance in the shattered debris of their dreams.

Are two different people posting under the same screen name .... within the same post?

:huh

[duncan228]

I've got at least one recent report that the Spurs are a dynasty.
There are plenty more, the discussion was hot and heavy after they won their fourth.

Success Stories? Not Yet
By Tim Legler
ESPN.com

The window of opportunity to achieve true greatness in the National Basketball Association closes quickly and, quite often, with very little notice. It is this competitive cruelty that makes the NBA so compelling. A team can host a parade one June and be anxiously waiting to see the logo on the ping-pong ball in David Stern's hand the next.

There are teams scattered throughout the history of the league that can sleep well at night knowing that they seized the moment and left a mark of excellence that will last an eternity. The Celtics of the 1960s and '80s. The Showtime Lakers. Michael Jordan's Bulls. Shaq and Kobe's three-peat. And finally, the ongoing brilliance of Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs. They are considered dynasties, one and all.

[m33p0]

no more boston trifecta. thank the gods.

[Holt's Cat]

This just means that whoever reads Simmons from now until June better have a big bottle of Pepto within reach.

[Dave McNulla]

Bill Simmons might have just committed hari kari.i can't wait to email him. in fact, i'll do it now.

Sounds like 0.4sec, or Manu-on-Dirk, for Patriots fans to me...

...oh, and as for it being a "lame thread", lame or not I think the people who RUN THE SITE are allowed as many threads as they like! :lol

[Deimosfobos]

That final was amazing... and i don't even like the sport.

[J.T.]

I'm just glad to never have to hear "Patriots of the NBA" again.

We started our run before them, why the fuck are we compared to them. They should be called the Spurs of the NFL but not anymore. 3-1

[timvp]

Bump.

























4-0 > 3-2

[Robz4000]

lol Patriots :lmao:

[WeNeedLength]

Looks like you were waiting 4 years to do this bump :lol

The Giants are the Florida Marlins of the NFL.

Pressure bust pipes, I'd don't prefer the mess. I agree completely I'm a grown man but I WILL Cry if the spurs mess up that 4-0 finals mark

[spursmartyr]

Belichick is a dunce

4-0 > 5-2 > 3-2

[spurs1990]

I'm kinda bummed. Was hoping to make the corralary between the Pats and Spurs - IE the last Super Bowl NE won was in 2007, which was the last one we won.

It would have been perfect harmony to have us both win in 2013.

No, you dolt, the last Super Bowl NE won was in 2004-05. The next to last Super Bowl NE lost was in 2007-08.
