How about you don't count your chickens before they hatch. This advise coming from someone who's favorite team started 37-5 and never made it to the finals a few years back.
And no.. to answer your question.

I'm sure there was some Net fan celebrating being the greatest team ever after they started the season 1-0.. nothing wrong with optomisim. If you feel so much I would advise you going to vegas and putting everything you own on them winning the championship.

Clearly this is the greatest team ever assembled in any sport. I really think the Spurs could take on any team in the history of sports and beat them at their sport. Football? Cake. Hockey? Too easy. Baseball? A woman's game.

I understand this is a facetious thread, but I'll answer the question anyway. The Spurs don't have a chance against LA or Boston if Bonner is ahead of Splitter in the rotation. Splitter needs to be playing 20 minutes a game.

Re: Are the 2010 spurs the best team ever assembled?
It's too early in the season. Injuries and tired legs could always mount up to haunt ya. Offensively, this Spurs team may be one of the best, but I would like to see the defensive intensity to pick up a bit. We lack a shot blocker/intimidator in the paint. TD is losing a step on the defensive rotation a lil bit and Blair is too undersized to be a shot blocker. Splitter is rarely on the court and Bonner isn't an intimidator....But then again, we keep winning games so time will tell.

saying that this Spurs team is the best ever by just considering their (partial) record is, let's say, a looking the fill part of the glass.
Eg : Spurs are yet to prove they can improve their defense (almost 100 points a game).

Re: Are the 2010 spurs the best team ever assembled?
No. IDK, I just don't feel they will get their 5th ring with this kind of style. This is actually one of the most boring Spurs team I've watched (Duncan era). Yes, they do alley oops, fancy layup/dunks and a lot of fast breaks but that's not what I wanted them to do. I missed the old Spurs who would set up a half court offense, post up as their first option, the team rebounding, or play "Barbarian like" defense that would result to a 2 digit end game scores from them and opposing team.

what's your point? they are winning with this style. Who cares if you find it boring or not?
Newsflash, this team as it is assembled cannot play the way the old Spurs teams did. If they tried they would get killed every single night.
Not saying they are ready to win a ring but complaining about the best start in team history considering the age of our top 2 players is crazy.

Don't get me wrong. I like seeing our team winning, with "style" as you said though that's your preference. But what can I do? My preference is to see constant great D's, priority maybe. Lets see post regular season what will happen. :toast

I'm sure that Pop would prefer winning the old Spurs way as well, but giving the exits of the Admiral,Bowen, etc..., pop has had to retool this team on the fly, and play to this current teams strengths, which is offense. Most of us know Pop will always preach defense and although this current Spurs team will never be condsidered elite, in terms of defense, their defense has the chance to be solid and is slowly improving as the season evolves.

As stunning as our record is, it sucks that we don't have much separation from our rivals.
If the playoffs started today, I don't think we'd be able to beat the Mavs or Lakers.
The regular season wins are fun, but our weaknesses haven't been fully addressed.

Sure, if Dirk shoots 10-12 (83%) from the field every single game we wouldn't be able to beat the Mavs...
He had a similar type of game against us during the playoffs last playoffs. Didn't turn out so hot for the Mavs as far as the entire series goes, though.

If the Spurs win tonight, I think that will be a good indicator of their ability to make the necessary adjustments. Most team have lapses that last several games. The elite ones make quick game to game adjustments. So, though I think you are probably right, I have been pleased so far this year by the Spurs' ability to prove me wrong.
