Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
I wish they would allow you to purchase single games that are shown on NBATV. Unfortunately, it counts as a national game and cannot be purchased.

Bruh, they WANTED the home-court by all means necessary b/c of what happened in Gm 7 of the '05 Finals. Last I checked OKC drubbed the Spurs in 2014 & got blown the fuck out in ALL 3 games at San Antonio in the playoffs.:lol Not to mention the Pistons flamed out in the PLAYOFFS when they ran out of gas.

It's not their record but the way they are playing that matters; teams can beat up on the Lakers even while they're coasting.
Then the comparison to the Pacers is way off, because they went from 18-2 in the first month of the season to 12-18 in the last month. That's a big projection for a team that lost two out of three after the start they had.

I really wish they would move this from NBATV to one of those two networks. I have NBA League Pass on Uverse in Dallas and the only games I don't get to see are NBATV (included on a more expensive tv plan) and Mavericks/Spurs Games (Must have Fox Sports Southwest). I'm not paying a couple hundred dollars more per year to get 5-6 extra games.
Don't know this for sure, but I think you may be able to purchase NBA TV or NBA League Pass games a la carte.

Great for me, that would most likely be a televised game for NBA TV Asia on cable that i got at home. No shitty streaming quality that looks so small on laptop screen or fudgy on LED TV screen, but rather FHD quality on 50" screen, nice. :D

I can't watch NBA TV games neither.
So... archived it is.
On the topic, we would all be miserable if the Spurs end up with the #1 seed just to be eliminated by the whine & flop crew again.
They need to make sure they get revenge this time.
Still half a season, but it's great this team has a real chance at HCA without burning out anybody.

It would make sense to have Dirk before Malone, since Dirk was able to get the job done. Kevin Garnett was never better then Duncan, not even during his MVP season. The 'Wolfs tended to pad his stats in blowouts and his game was less suited for playoffs.
Great contribution to the topic at hand.

Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
In pursuit of that 1 seed, I'm forced to root for the Cavs tonight. Not an easy thing to do, tbh.

Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
Cavs aren't cooperating right now...

Maybe you should have pulled for Golden State.

Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
Lol Spurs... Struggled against the Cavs at home while the Warriors are up 30 at half IN CLEVELAND. No way the Spurs can handle the Warriors.

Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
Abberant performances by both teams. Pretty lame thh.

Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
It's really a shame that the WCF is going to be more important than the Finals. If Cavs lose by less than 25 it's a big success.

Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
So much for help from the Cavs :lol
We all better hope GS doesn't lose the game before they host the Spurs

Spurs struggled against the Cavs? What game were you watching? After the Spurs came out like ass in the first quarter and the Cavs started missing, it was smooth sailing.

Styles make fights. Cavs match up better with us and we might match up better with the Dubs. We'll see what happens next Monday.

Kinda like GSW vs the Cavs at home.
You act like you never seen an NBA game. Blowouts happen. The Pistons blew the Spurs out in games 3 and 4 of the 05 Finals but that didn't stop us from winning the series.

Hmmm. I ignored the bug in my mind that was telling me Cleveland would not show up for the game vs. GS. And I dunno if Noah-less Chicago will be up to the task.

Solid take tbh

It's not a meter of them showing up, they're just not the better team

Re: Spurs Pursuit Of The 1 Seed
How 'bout those Cavs! They go this!
