Our seeding was the worst in the Tim Duncan Era
Our defense was the worst in the Tim Duncan Era

I could go on. Our players are not as dominate as in years past. We have more depth than ever, but no one was playing on a top tier level.

Not to say people weren't playing well for stretches or that they had bad seasons. But I distinguish dominate seasons from good seasons. I don't know if this team will raise its game to playoff level. They have in years past, but this year is unlike any other.

Totally agreed.

Even as bad as the season seemed:

• We still got 50 wins
• We still have a winning road record
• We stole a rookie who is capable of putting up 20/20 nights if given the minutes
• We found out Manu can still be Manu (even if it took awhile)
• G. Hill is in the talks for MIP (no he wont get it but he was acknowledged)
• We are going into the playoffs with a healthy big 3

Be happy with what this team has given you cause it could be much worse!

Do we have enough to make it to the finals? I have no idea but I will be cheering for them the whole way and not whining about how thinks could have been!

I am happy. I'm glad we made the playoffs and made a second half run that got me away from the ledge. But be realistic, this is not the position we imagined the Spurs would be in at the beginning of the season. They've admitted as much. I still like our team, but there is truth to the fact that we are a little too old on our superstars and a little to young on our up and coming stars. Tony, being the age exception, has struggled with injuries all year.

I hope we beat the Mavs. I can't stand them. But I can't tell you what kind of team we will have this post season as this is a team has surprised me all year: in good ways and bad.
