Spurs fall for the oldest trick in sports.


Last used successfully by the Boston Red Sox on the New York Yankees.Let em win a couple of games to make them cockey and overconfident, then quietly win the next four games before they know what hit them.

*ahem*

I think you mean 'ONLY time ever used successfully'

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Are Big Papi and Manny being signed to 10-day contracts?

[duncan228]

:lmao

[lrrr]

That's the trick the Spurs used on PHX during the regular season. Now watch them win the next to make it 4 in a row.

[Obstructed_View]

Here's hoping every Spurs opponent employs that strategy.

[remingtonbo2001]

I didn't see a ksat link, so it can't be confirmed.

[Obstructed_View]

Okay, that sig is fucking funny.

I actually saw some fans say just that at 2-0 on a suns forum. :depressed

[ransome]

The trap is set, tomorrow is the game earmarked for the first victory. All according to plan.

Yeah, except the Spurs are NOT the Yankees. They don't get cocky or overconfident.

This thread is a joke. Phoenix was done afer two games.

[Sausage]

I'm shaking in my spaceboots

[td4mvp21]

I don't think that's a strategy :lol I won't rest easy, however, until the Spurs win their fourth game of the series.

[Spurminator]

oldest and least successfully employed trick ever... but maybe the Suns are due?

:lmao

We practically did it against the Lakers in '06 without Amare. If there's a 1% chance we can still take this series, I'm a believer! Let's go Suns, let's overcome our personal demons and act like a championship team. :)

Like one of the local announcers said last night, it won't work because Amare can't hit a curve ball.

They are, you just don't know it yet. It will start Sunday.

I'm pretty sure this thread was a joke, but I'm not surprised most of you took it seriously. :lol

i don't know. he maybe right. :spin

Incorrect. Another thread mentions that it's happened 3 times. Of course twice it was in the NHL (in the 40's and 75), so maybe they don't count...

i dont think he was joking.... they were even providing rebuttals...

op is so correct.

And so it begins...

[ShoogarBear]

Hey. Your shoelaces are untied.

POW!

See how that works?

:lol

[RandomGuy]

Yeah we got them right were we want them. :rolleyes

... in Phoenix. ;)

The odds are not in any team's favor to beat the Spurs at home for any two games.

Unless somehow enough Phoenix fans show up to out cheer the good folks from San Antonio in SA, I see the defending world champions winning at least ONE of those two home games.

No offense, and I'm not trying to bust anyones butt over it, although I am sure someone else will beat me to it.

[RandomGuy]

Never get involved in a land war in Asia?

Never bet against a Sicilian when death is on the line?

[Trainwreck2100]

[Brutalis]

You're right. We're done for.

Crap.

[Ryvin1]

Teams down 3-1, playing game 5 on the road, are... 2-118 all-time. Just an interesting little statistic. So there is a chance...

[bresilhac]

Yeah we got them right were we want them. :rolleyes

Exactly. With the Spurs up 3-1 and the Suns staring at yet another playoff failure/choke. Right where Phoenix always is at playoff time.

[FromWayDowntown]

I'm in the camp that won't feel particularly secure until the Spurs win a 4th game. This group of Spurs has rarely failed, but when they have, they've failed pretty spectacularly.

Losing this one would definitely fit into that category.

[bresilhac]

I am not the least bit worried. The odds are so enormously against Phoenix rallying in this series that the only question I really have is how many points will the Spurs win by in game five?

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

:lol

It's not a choke if the Spurs are the superior team, as they clearly appear to be.

Reminds me of dumb and dumber..."so your saying there's a chance....":lmao

[FromWayDowntown]

Those teams are 2-118 all-time in the series during the NBA playoffs.

The road team is 34-86 in Game 5 in those situations (2-12 in first round Game 5's).

The road team is 34-86 in Game 5 in those situations (2-12 in first round Game 5's).

I'm guessing that would stand to reason because the disparity is usually greater in first round match ups.

Jesus can't either.
