i predicted in another thread a blowout means someone is being moved .. and I stand by that.
I just hope it is not Bonner or Hill going, but they may be the only ones worth jack.
we beat LA on their second game of back to back without walton, famar and sasha by 1 point...and somehow you guys think we are on their level.
back to reality

When both teams are healthy the Spurs are just too small and too slow for LA.
something needs to happen, this current spurs team isn't winning this year
spurs always play poorly early
in the playoffs I want lakers in round one![]()
I don't think I've ever heard anybody say we're on LA's level..
the first game wasn't a fluke, we played a much different game than we did today..MUCH smarter offensively..
Farmar's production was replaced by the scrub Josh Powell in the first game, it's irrelevant..it's not like Sun Yue was hurting them in the few minutes he played, he even generated a turnover..
Walton and Vujacic were irrelevant in this game..
we aren't ready to play LA with this defense..we would have had a chance if Bowen actually played most of the 3rd, but he didn't..nevertheless, we aren't winning against them until we get back to playing great defense..
Give me the whistle and we'd be right there.
The Spurs aren't going to win many games when Manu, Bonner and Mason combine for 2-for-15 (or whatever) from 3.
Thank You Kori!!
The Lakers did play well...but the Spurs missed a lot of shots and those three guys have to play well in order to beat LA!!
Is this guy a Spurs fan??
That is what I saw. This team needs to hit threes against the best teams and they didn't do that today.
[homer]It's only January.[/homer]
I still think the spurs are on the same level as the lakers but not on the same level with the celtics or a healthy cleveland team.
no were not on the lakers level but we can improve that this season
spurs are not on LA's level, but they shouldn't be too far off.
they just scraped a miraculous win in LA but that was an injured lakers team
against a full Lakers roster, I think we can see how the spurs match up...
Dude, we're not even on Orlando''s level this year. Let alone Lakers.
that's true but mason and bonner only had a couple open looks. no way that was enough to band aid the bleeding spurs suffered on offense. lakers perimeter defense is getting better and they definitely adjusted to mason. mason was defended pretty well so he had few open looks. lakers intimidated parker in the paint and defended the 3 well enough to take away the spurs' offense.
I wouldn't even say we're on orlandos level either but the lakers aren't impressive. The spurs can compete with them and they are capable of beating them.
No we are not on their level right now...but there is a lot of season left. Get back at me on March 12.
The Spurs need a healthy Manu to win a championship. Not just his scoring...but playmaking ability and they didn't get that today.
He's the X-Factor and if he doesn't play well....the Spurs are a good team but not a great team.
The Lakers have depth and athleticism and Kobe Bryant and the Spurs have to put the ball in the basket and as well as defend to beat them.
the only team who could possibly beat us in 7, or even take us to 7 for that matter, are the cavs and celtics.
We got through your spurs rather easily last year and it didn't even take seven. This laker team is looking better than last years because of the addition of Drew and Trevor, both of whom should still get better yet as the year goes on. Not to sound y about or arrogant but I don't see any way the spur beat us in a seven game series-and I would sadly conceed the same if I were a Spurs fan!!
Sorry..they had plenty of open looks. On one possession alone in the first half..Bonner had three shots and missed them all. Mason had several open looks as well as Manu. They have to make those shots!!
Not even close. I think last year's 4-1 defeat in the playoffs, and this year's (thus far) Laer dominance pretty much seal the deal.
I am aware that the Silver & Black somehow beat them last month. Not sure how that happened ... they tried their best to give it to the Lakers. It came down to a lucky ref's call.
And there's simply too much talent on that Lakers squad. They are better, deeper, younger, stronger, and more talented at every position than we are (except PF, and it's close).
How many Spurs would play significant minutes on the Lakers? 3 -- Duncan would start, and Tony and Gino would come off the bench. The rest would ride the bench, if they were on the roster at all.
How many Lakers would start for the Spurs. All of em, and I mean all. Even Radmonovich.
It's not even close. Lakers are #1 in the West. The Spurs, maybe a distant second. Truth hurts.
lakers are better than celtics and cavs. we aren't even on the magic's level. we are really in trouble. we need another player ASAP
we need another BIG! duncan got his ass abused by bynum and gasol just now. we'll get swept this year if we meet them in the playoffs
many spurs fans seem to think we can compete with the lakers.. come playoffs i just don't see it. they are too deep, too athletic and too good scoring.
walton still doesn't seem to be 100% and sashas solid defense was pretty relevant this game. it looked like he created a few turnovers on us. them not being in our last meet was the real reason why we won.
