March 17 and the Spurs are in the midst of their worst 6 game performance of the season...the line is drawn in the sand. Which side do you stand on?

Will the Spurs figure out a way to pull it together and win it all this year?

Post your thoughts at this moment...only to have them bumped and thrown in your face over and over again for the next several years.

March 23rd. Return to the scene of the crime from last season.


Spurs win a big game and turn it around.

Just like in 05. (Except the Spurs win and don't get blown out)

If you thought the Spurs have a dynasty already, I'm not sure what you'd call what they're about to pull off -- '08, '09 and '10 championships!

No f'n way. I'm quitting on this team!!!

If they win another game, I won't post for a year

(remembers that saying one won't post for a year really means that one won't post for a couple of days)

I see a lot more losing in the near future before Spurs get their shit together. Then sweep cavs in finals again.

I believe the Spurs will flip that switch. I've seen it too many times. And if they do, I don't think there's a team in this league that can beat the Spurs in a 7 game series when SA is motivated and determined to win.

Heck, I've seen the Spurs flip the switch within a series...so the fact that we haven't seen a full dose of switch flipping yet doesn't freak me out like it does some people.

Still, seeing the Spurs rattle off the last 8-10 games or so would be nice. I actually prefer the Spurs in the underdog role, but I think HCA, at least in round 1, would be a good thing.

I think we'll see the Spurs start playing 'Spurs Basketball' within the next week or so...perhaps tonight.

Nup, option 3 for me - that's my head talking, not my heart.

I haven't given up hope, but logically the switch just isn't there this year. The Spurs are too old and slow while the league has gotten younger and faster. Time to drop a bunch of the vets (Fin, Rob, St.) and get some cocky youth in here.

I feel sorry for Manu and TP - they are killing themselves trying to win games, but the supporting cast just can't step up. I also feel sorry for Tim because the rules have changed such that he can be hacked all game for no call... however, his increasing lack of mobility is a real worry.

That loss dropped the Spurs projected success rating to 73%.

As long as they get in PO they will be fine.

Good thing it's March Madness and the NCAA tournament.

I'm about to 'pull a Riley' and forget the NBA for awhile and start scouting for the draft.

By the time Duke is knocked out, I hope Pop's woken up and discovered a steady rotation.
