So when the heck are the Spurs going to be ahead for once?
And they are only 2 losses away from the 9th seed. Didn't think of that one did you. =P
Problem is...in this division...it might take winning it just to make the playoffs.
if dallas is your goal, then it's over.
I like the positive attitude!
Im a die hard spurs fan, and will never jump off ship, i love the organization, and all they have done for the city of san antonio!
But that being said, they look like a team that has only been playing with eachother for 48+ games! There is def. a problem in san antonio!!!!
And i dont know how they can fix it, other then not losing faith and keep playing hard! Hopefully things start coming together real soon, and the big three and company can restore their championship pedigree!!!!
I still believe they can turn it around, but the Spurs themselves need to believe starting from the water boy , to the coaches to the FO to the players!!!!!!!!
:lol yeah, but I'm just trying to stay positive bc everyone is always so negative. I'm tired of our guys losing close games bc of the lack of execution among other things, but I'm optimistic we'll get it turned around!Quote:

In the past they were able to say:

2) we have the top 5 players in these positions: PF, SG, PG
3) come crunch time, we will execute our plays...we will not beat ourselves...we will not make mistakes...if a game is close, you will need to play perfect basketball to beat us...
Right we have none of the above other than Duncan being a top 5 PF.
Our biggest improvement, the rise of George Hill, is offset by the decline of Parker and Manu.
RJ brings very little to the table...can't spread the floor, can't play D, can't drive in or create in the half court set...only thing he can do is finish on the break, but unfortunately for him, this isn't a running team, and when they do run, the guy with the ball usually tries to finish the break himself

This year, the Spurs rely on small ball way to much and have removed the defense completely from our lineups. They cannot win like this and although they might make the playoffs they will probably go down in the first round unless serious changes are made to the rotation. This does not require a trade, but it will require that Pop lose the pride.
I agree, I don't want to settle for the 10th spot come playoff time.Quote:

mediocrity is rampant in the NBA. it means nothing to be 2 games outta the top seed in the division. this ship is flawed and sinking fast.Quote:

+1 - no one is going to trade for mason and hand us an equally comparable 3 point specialist in return. if so, he is bound to be even more one dimensional than mason is and that wouldnt help one iotaQuote:

You are right. Manu and Parker are not top five in their positions this year.Quote:

I still have faith in the spurs...there a good team.....
Spurs have to turn it around or I'm going to be real sick at playoff time. I can't watch playoffs without the Spurs.
I know, last year was brutal :depressedQuote:

"Keep The Faith"
Dallas lost to Minnesota tonight. LA and Denver are the only clear top teams. Spurs could sneak in with a 3-4 seed if they win some games.
I haven't followed Dallas closely. I seriously thought Dallas are playing much better than Spurs. Oh well...Quote:
