Its nice to jump to the most ref-friendly team of the moment and win when the key players are there, now we are watching the same D Worst that did nothing for the Spurs.

I agree I will never forget how shitty his defense and rebounding was for the Spurs against the Thunder in the playoffs. He's also a fake tough guy that was exposed when he tried to punk Kanter during a regular season game a week before the playoffs. Kanter didn't back down and West backed away immediately once Adams was walking up to him. I really do believe that confrontation inspired those two guys play out of their asses against the Spurs once they met up in the playoffs.

:lol But but the Warriors run a great system in which you can plug in anybody and win games.

if we were fighting for #1 with GS, popovich would rest the whole team and play our G league team until curry, klay, and durant came back

That was sad.
Specially when Adams was hurting our guys in the playoffs, Davetta was nowhere to be found.

Durant, Curry, and Thompson will all be unavailable when the Dubs come to San Antonio. Monday just became a must-win game

That fucking sucks. Now the Spurs might win. Team is so unlucky they're not even being allowed to tank.

Wouldn't be surprised if Adam Silversteinweinstein suspends all NBA activity until Durbeta is healed, tbh...

i saw the play. there is no way durant injured his rib. It's called "rest without fines"

they will all be back for the play offs, nothing to see here.

I hope he does not come back any more (yes, I'm serious.), for the harm done to basketball with his cowardly act

Would be nice to slide in to that 7th spot and meet a broke down warriors team in
1st round. And if Kawhi makes it back that might give him another few games to
get in better game shape and who knows make a run.

We are VERY likely to play Golden State in the first round. This could get interesting very fast if Durant is in poor shape come playoffs time and even more so if Kawhi can come back within the next 3 weeks.

Warriors and their little bitch fans will whine about how unfair and unlucky these injuries are when, in reality, Warriors have had the stars align for them perfectly over the years

I think we're more likely to jump up to 5th or 6th if we can sweep the home stand and split the two game road trip tbh

Very possible. A home stand sweep is looking very likely with a win against Minnesota tonight. Warriors will not be a problem and the Jazz will probably be the only real roadblock.

Kawhi is not coming back this year. It's the reason why I prefer for the Spurs to miss the playoffs. No point of going to the playoffs and getting swept by the Rox or the Warriors in the first round.

Nope. I’ll rest Kawhi, LaMarcus, Danny Green and Parker during the first round.

Baring an injury to LMAlpha, Spurs will probably end up in the 5th or sixth and play Portland or OKC in the first round, both of whom i'd consider to be underdogs despite having home court advantage. Spurs would still have around the 20th pick which is still much better than are usual selection.

Warriors getting a taste of the injury bug for a change. Durant does have some injurys in his career that has shut him down, so he is injury prone.

Warriors by 30+ instead of 70+ tbh

I think I'd rather just take my chances against hopefully a hobbled warriors team and if by chance we get past them
Then Spurs in line to not see Houston until wcf.
