Re: Did you get yours ready?
How funny would it be if the Spurs sweep and then lose in the Finals to the Heat?

Re: Did you get yours ready?
Last I checked, it was lodged 2ft into Dwight's ass tbh.

Re: Did you get yours ready?
not assuming anything either, tbh... I thought they gave us their best shot last game... if we hit our 3s at an average rate, they can't keep up, IMO.
Would be sweet to close it at the grindhouse...

Predictable playoffs this year, I said that whoever had the HCA in the Finals was definitely winning this year.

Not very.

Re: Did you get yours ready?
Look, I was happy with the Spurs season after the regular season ended, so all of this is gravy to me. But to get to the finals and watch Stern screw with us would be unpleasant.

Am I the only one who laughs at that nicname?
"The Grindhouse" sounds like a strip club or some shit.

Sweeping them there would also destroy their other schticks, tbh... "grit and grind", "we don't bluff", etc...

As soon as Westbrick went down the ceiling became the Finals tbh. Don't expect them to beat the Heat but there was no reason to think they couldn't get that far.

Re: Did you get yours ready?
The Heat have homecourt and are the defending champs but people have a need to put them on a fucking pedestal. Of course they look like a million bucks because that's the best money can buy for them....but, they also play in the Leastern Conference. They wouldn't have a size advantage on us. Do you guys really fear that meth addict birdman trying to defend TD? They can let Lebron stad pad all he wants and get his razzle dazzle bullshit. If we put Kawhi on a broken-down Wade, they may not have enough firepower to hang with us. Who knows? But they can be beat. First things first, though. Let's sweep and get our revenge on those punks from Memphis.

It would not be funny at all!

Re: Did you get yours ready?
Four sweeps in 2 seasons.
That's gotta be a record of some sort.

At least the Spurs would be Western Conference Champions. Still would love to get :lobt2: #5, though.

Funny? No. Expected. Getting to the Finals again for TD would be huge, I think most of us would take that a few years ago with the prospect of TD retiring soon.
I don't think we sweep, though it's possible given the mental state Memphis displayed in the press conference last game and how they didn't even bother to foul in OT with 30 seconds left, down 9.

No, they are a monster. Conference be damned, they are two superstars (best player in the game and a top 5), and one franchise player (Bosh) who's long and shoots 3s and the midrange really well, best 3pt shooter in the history of the game, and one of the smartest defenders in the NBA (Shane).
They are weak at PG and coaching (imo) but don't pretend they are overrated.

Everyone will expect the Heat to just steamroll the Spurs, so all the pressure will be on Miami. Spurs should be loose and just have fun. :toast

I don't think they're overrated. I just don't think they should be crowned already and have the Spurs DOA'd.

That won't happen (just having fun) but for me, the WCF win will be the pinnacle to the season and TD's career. If he gets #5, I might reconsider my religious stance.

I don't think anyone has, but faith and pep isn't going to get them there. Had RW not gone down, we'd be struggling to beat the Thunder. The Thunder would be torched again by the Heat. We're at least two notches below the Heat, but that doesn't mean we cannot beat them, we can but a lot of that depends on the Heat even if we are at our very best.

Re: Did you get yours ready?
The Spurs need to finish it tonight. The Grizz don't really have anything realistic to play for. Pride I guess but come on. No one has come back from 3-0 and these guys aren't going to be the first. Play the way you did after the first quarter, get a decent lead, and put em away.

After last season's collapse I honestly didn't even think the Spurs would get back to the WCF let alone having a shot to go back to the Finals. I've assumed wrong all year, and I've assumed Miami was unstoppable all year...

One thing we have that most people don't account for (including us) is Manu Ginobili. He's impossible to plan for. Even Pop cannot plan for how he's going to contribute. However, you didn't really assume wrong. You just didn't know RW would go down, and you didn't know the Lakers would stink it up and that Kobe would recuse himself with the Achilles injury. We didn't think we'd be playing GS in the 2nd round, didn't see the Clippers falling in the 1st to Memphis. We certainly didn't see this 3-0 lead happening. Crazy shit happens and the Spurs are poised to make their 5th Finals appearance. I'm hoping they get there, and when they do I'm just going to enjoy it. I hope they do as well. If we win, that's going to be epic. I'll be on a high until the next freeze. Last time I stayed at this lake cabin I'm going to be at during the Finals, the Spurs won the ring. I had to watch on a small b&w TV with poor reception but I watched.

They would have made it A LOT further than I expected. I'm still shocked they are one win away from the finals when these guys were having trouble against teams like the T'Wolves in the final stretch of the season. Talk about bluffing

Re: Did you get yours ready?
:cry I won't go into "Mark Jackson Mode" until we win the Memphis series, tbh, lol. ... But sometimes when you let go of the need to try to control things that you have absolutely NO control of... that is when pieces of a bigger, more wonderful puzzle start falling into place. :cry

Re: Did you get yours ready?
Even if the Grizzlies win and make it a 3-1 series, I wouldn't be seriously worried - unless they proceed to make it 3-2. Then suddenly it's a whole different series - they'd be back home at FedEx Forum with a chance to force a Game 7.
-
Re: Did you get yours ready?
No, I didn't get my broom yet. I see a lot of threads about Spurs vs Heat, and that's fine. Personally I'm either too superstitious or maybe methodical about everything to make comments like that, I just want us to beat the Grizzlies in the most effective way possible, then I'll worry about what happens next.

Grizzlies ain't doin' shit. Refs doin' work trying to keep them in the game.

Heat could to 7 games with Pacers and still would be heavy favorites- Spurs get to finals playing with house money will be HUGE underdogs
