    Stupid ing thread. Who knows? No-one can tell anything about an NBA team until the season, and even then the teams don't really start playing D before Christmas. I guess you just enjoy wasting time... and this is ST... carry on!

    Why is the question even being asked when we're in the middle of the free agency signing period? There will likely be a lot roster movement (trades, buyouts, whatever)before training camp starts.

    It's all early speculation. Any contending team could suffer a devasting injury and more than one of them could throw in the towel and get rid off key players. I don't think the west will be as close as last year, but it will be fun if it is.

    Agree, Lakers will certainly be tough even if they keep Odom but let's hope for a little healthier year and for these young guys that play to bring some energy off the bench. That 1 seed is key, imagine if we could have played Denver and Utah instead of Phoenix and NO.
    I honestly doubt the Number 1 seed is as important about matchups, considering how strong the western conference is, as it is about having home court IN those matchups. Had we of gained homecourt against NO and LA, I doubt we go home without a Finals appearance, minimum.

    One or two more wins when Pop appeared to be playing around with the rotation would've been huge at the end of the season.

    The coming year could be even worse if he experiments a lot with rookies and uses the unproven Mahimi and Mason as starters or gives them big minutes.

    There are so many unknowns about this coming year and so many unproven players expected to play important roles that I think we could enter the playoffs further down in the seeding than last year, meaning we might play LAL or NO early.

    I agree. This year, it'd have been nice to play Denver instead of Phoenix, in addition to having homecourt against Utah. However, the western conference is too close to really believe any team will snare an easy path to the Finals, even a 1 seed.

    Just look at LA. It "seems" like they had by far the easiest way to the Finals of either team. But they lost pretty convincingly.

    Or how about Boston? Despite home court in every series, all 4 went at least 6 games.

    The coming year could be even worse if he experiments a lot with rookies and uses the unproven Mahimi and Mason as starters or gives them big minutes.
    Eh, I'm pretty sure its the general consensus Pop isn't just "experimenting" with the rookies next season,. Instead, he plans for at least Hill and Mahinmi to make a big impact. I don't know why everyone is fretting when with those two guys, we've addressed the backup PG problem as well as added the athletic big next to Tim since the '99 version of D Rob. Of course the doubters will make the argument they're unproven, but its void and nil. I'm sure just having some young legs in the rotation is going to freshen this team up exponentially.

    There are so many unknowns about this coming year and so many unproven players expected to play important roles that I think we could enter the playoffs further down in the seeding than last year, meaning we might play LAL or NO early.
    In truth, I doubt the spurs get below a 4-5 seed. Which means we probably would play a team like Utah first, not NO or LA, which are of course locks for a tie for 82-0 with Boston, Houston, and every other team thats better than our mid-dynasty spurs this season.

    You still have the best 3 man core in the NBA (arguably) and a great system with a commitment to defense.

    Some of you are really pathetic fans by the way, have some faith in your team for crissakes.

    As a side note -- does anyone know if "Oklahoma City" has changed divisions, or are they going to be in the NW playing out of OKC?
    i believe they remain in the same division, i remember reading an article when the move from seattle to oklahoma city was at its early stages.

    You've got low, low hopes for the spurs this season from the looks of it.
