Re: Predict the Spurs' playoff performance
I voted NBA Champions
Wouldn't be surprised to see them ousted in the first round but this team is good enough to make it to the WCF against the Warriors.
For me, as odd as it seems, i feel that if we make it to the WCF, we will beat the Warriors and beat Cleveland, Boston or whoever comes out of the East. Toughest test will be Grizzlies and Rockets(Thunder) if we make it there.

Re: Predict the Spurs' playoff performance
2nd round exit, even if it's because someone gets injured.
If the Spurs get to the WCF, I'd bet the injury thing that has been going on in the NBA recently and influencing who's champion won't happen this year. Dubs will be all healthy and fresh to drop the Spurs in 5.

Re: Predict the Spurs' playoff performance
The Spurs will make it to the NBA Finals (Western Conference Finals) where it will be a toss up with the Warriors.

You really think the Grizzlies or Thunder would be more difficult than the Warriors with Durant?

On paper that's how it is. However no team scares me more than okc because even without Durant the thunderefs are still alive and well.

Re: Predict the Spurs' playoff performance
Spurs get through the Grizzlies but their offense, or lack-thereof, will be exposed vs. the Rockets. The Rockets will be able to defend the Spurs better than the Spurs can defend the Rockets mainly due to the inefficiencies San Antonio has offensively.
Rockets will be able to manufacture better shots during the course of a 7 game series. Rockets in 6.

This is right on the money. So many people on this forum underestimate Houston because "Houston can't defend" but the Spurs are quite easy to defend and Houston did a pretty damn good job of defending us in most of the matchups this season. It will come down to Spurs limiting Houston from outside. If Houston hits 35% of their 3's this series will be over in favor of Houston a lot faster than most Spurs fans will realize.

Re: Predict the Spurs' playoff performance
A month ago I would have picked the Rockets, but Harden has fizzled (bad wrist?) lately and their bench (EG/Lou shooting awfully) and defense haven't been up to snuff..
Spurs over Grizz in 6
Spurs over Houston in 7
Warriors over Spurs in 5

Re: Predict the Spurs' playoff performance
And yep, if the Spurs somehow make it out of the West it would be somewhat of a choke if they don't ring. I wouldn't consider this Cavs team even in the Top 5 most difficult match-ups for us in the league..

Unless Pop feels like getting outcoached by Pringles I don't see the Rockets being too much of a problem since they aren't a disciplined defense. Of course Houston going nuclear from 3 in the series is possible, so we'll see.
