...this Spurs' team is special.
They remind me of the '83 Sixers, the greatest team of all-time, where all the right players came together at the right time.
.... and while it is on my mind, What the F* ever happened to Billy Cunningham?

big big Spurs bench tonight
Spurs shoot 88% in FTs?? 29/33!!
Brown will average at least 0.6 per minute played - mark it down.
This is a special Spurs team = #3 will make them contenders for team of the decade (the Duncan Decade!)
Maybe you should wait at least till the end of November before you buy a seat for the spurs river barge parade? ...Psssst! ......The Mavs are right around the corner.

A serious philosophical point: if one is a "fan" of a team are they not a "homer"?
A little too soon to be going crazy considering they have not beaten any really good teams yet.
Nice to see TP and Beno both do well.
Miami, LA, Sacrameto,
they have beaten some legit teams Nikos.
No doubt they arent even close to being there, but you can sense this team is scary good.
I can sense that the team has the talent and balance to POTENTIALLY be scary good.
But they did beat Miami without Wade, Sacto and LA at home. Neither LA or Sac were particularly playing good ball early in the season, although should get better.
Not trying to be negative, the offense and defense have looked solid as a whole, but the team still has some holes to patchup and some more good teams to beat before deeming them as 'scary good'.

To a homer, anyone who dares criticize the team or any players on it cannot possibly be a fan of that team.
A homer won't watch any more basketball if his team is eliminated from the playoffs.
Other than washing the mayors car?,I don't think so you can go back to your job now :lmaoQuote:

I agree, it is early... But damm... these guys are playing well....
Just pray no one gets hurt!
well, they fell in love with the jumpshot early in the game when they would have been better served attacking...
and TP can get in the paint anytime he wants, and while he won't necessarily score, the foul is almost as automatic as it was for DRob. he can't show the ball too early though....i like the way manu kinda holds it like a football for a step when he drives into traffic.....but yeah, the free throw shooting was great, and with beno, manu, and of course barry shooting the way they are, with an occasional 3 from bruce, things are looking very positive...knock on wood.
dallas is playing better than i thought they would mouse. can dirk keep it up? and what the hell has gotten into seattle. 18 three pointers? damn. minny handled miami as well, with a stellar game from garnett, but i like that our Spurs are able to blow out opponents without TD carrying the load on his shoulders every night....looking good.

They beat LA, IN LA.
beat LA quite easily too. Get the facts straight before downplaying the team.

Sorry I made a mistake about the LA game, still not that impressive although their passing was that night.Quote:

I don't think a true fan of the Bobcats (and there undoubtedly are some) believes they can win. He may wish and hope for them to win, but he realistically wants the team to be competitive, the games to be entertaining, and to see evidence of hope for the future. Wins are gravy for now.Quote:

(You know, the usual suspects: bad outside shooting, turnovers, offensive rebounds, lack of passion, Pop's substitutions.)
A true fan should be able to put love of the game over team loyalties, thus when the team or a player does something wrong, (s)he should be able to analyze it with other true fans.
A homer after a loss just says it was the refs fault, or David Sterns', or they cheated, or tells everyone else to just STFU.
