    Yeah, I mean we just lost two back to back games to inferior (well, they should be) teams but why are people upset? Everyone should be positive and smiling right now.

    yeah u mentioned it for like the millionth time. im aware that the playoffs arent in January. What worries me is that this team isn't showing me any signs that they can win it this year. Fans worry. It's all part of the game.

    It was November.

    It was December.

    It's January.

    Is there a reason people always want to remind the forum what month it is?

    Their "good" is how you're rationalizing the loss?

    So instead of being concerned after a loss, I have to look at the game and say it's only January and expect a championship come June.

    A couple of stumbles after s good run the past dozen games or so.. to be expected and more stumbles in the future for sure. The important thing is to learn and I'm a firm believer that you can often learn more from losses than wins.

    Well yeah, otherwise you're just a terrible Spurs fan questioning the team after a loss[es] who should be kicked off the team bandwagon and stoned to death.

    Who, other than OKC, who's descent and a beat up lakers team, which we almost blew with L.A.'s second unit, have we beaten in that stretch?

    What did the spurs learn from the loss to charlotte?

    OP, you do realize the very purpose of a sports message board is to critique the subject of the board, right?

    What exactly should the posts be about in your opinion?

    All season I've held it together pretty good, thankful for the flashes of brilliance I see from this team. But these last two losses are really ty, in a way that the earlier losses were not quite as ty. I hate seeing melt down threads, but after tonight I couldn't blame anyone if they felt like taking a nice big steamy fiber-rich on this team.

    Sometimes it's like the Spurs only have 2-3 good/active/intense players all game trying to keep the team in it. Everyone else just sort of gets high and wanders off.

    It's so everyone can keep up with the appropriate federal holidays; I'm expecting a nice MLK Day present from each and every one of you.


    In all seriousness, I agree with the OP that sometimes the cliffjumping can be a bit overboard on this forum, and I often avoid the forum quite a bit after a loss. However, I feel the hyperbole has mostly been within reason the last couple of games. The Spurs have looked downright bad at times, and have lost two straight games to decent but not great teams. Generally, the "panic but don't commit suicide yet" at ude has been more in-line with reality than it usually is. That's not saying too much, but it's a step in the right direction. In this case, "raise the bar" means "lower the gun."

    I was waiting for an "It's only January" thread.

    we're on the far side of January and the team still sucks, and gets beat by supposedly inferior teams. I've watched almost every spurs game since 2003, but I hardly watch the games anymore...

    yeah, I know... what a fan right...? well, I lose interest watching the games when I see the "lesser" teams playing with more effort and intensity.

    This x1. There wouldn't be any reason to have these forums if we all thought the same way.
