You'll see Kawhi playing that game before you see Pop benching Aldridge Sunday.Quote:

If we win 50 games, Aldridge will deserve to have his jersey retired here even if he never gets further in the playoffs.
This will be very hard to do, given the SOS, and limited help. But heroic if he does it given he's carrying the team almost entirely on his own--especially during this stretch run. At the end of the season too, he's gotta be tired.
yep, that's crazy.Quote:

Feels like those choked Pelicans or Lakers games will be the difference in the end with regard to the 50 win streak and the 3rd seed.Quote:

It's possible. The rockets game seems like the only game where a loss is guaranteed. The Lakers and Kings game should be guaranteed wins. The rest of the remaining games can go either way.Quote:

"another 50 win season for coach Pop and the Spurs... it's become like death and taxes... just a solid program over there in San Antonio"
vs
"Spurs record streak of 50 win seasons comes to an end as the finish with 49 wins, 1 shy of the mark... what a great program they have over there in San Antonio, Pop has created such a culture over there, guys know when they come in what they are expected to do and they do it. It's why you see so many other teams trying to emulate that system, and why you see so many Pop disciples coaching in the league today"
"In other news, Kawhi said "fuck Pop, my leg hurts... fuck you" just a great player, solid all around on both ends of the floor. If not the best then top two 2-way player in the league when he's healthy"
50 wins matters a lot. I don't give a flying fuck about who hangs what banners. If titles were the only thing that mattered to me, I'd just watch the playoffs. As it is, I watch the first 82 games as well, and the team keeping the streak going, even to lose in the first round, would make me a happy fan. RJ couldn't kill the streak. The lockout couldn't kill the streak. So if not even Kawhi missing the season is able to kill it, it will be legend.
50 wins with patty as the lead guard is pretty impressive tbh
i think they just might do it
Well..... she won the popular vote, so...Quote:

You don’t hang banners for it, but it sure matters a lot more than a divisional banner which many teams hang. And even more impressive if they can do it down a top 5 MVP vote getter the last two seasons.
No.. Just make the playoffs and keep that run alive. However we may be rebuilding this off-season. Since our best player is soft..
