Big Day for the Spurs tomorrow

[Spursfan092120]

I know we just have to keep doing our thing, and we'll be fine, but tomorrow's a big game for the West, and the Spurs...following games...

Jazz
(41-23, 13-17 away) 6:00 Central
Hawks
(36-28, 22-7 home)Jazz are 2.5 games back. Atlanta has a good shot at ending the 12 game win streak, since it's in Atlanta. In Utah, this is a blowout..in Atlanta, it's a good game.

Hornets
(39-23, 16-14 away) 6:00 Central
Wizards
(15-49, 10-22 home)OK, so this one should be a blowout, but the way New Orleans has been playing lately, you never know. And fresh off a sizeable win against the T-Wolves, if Jamison and Butler can go off, anything's possible.

Lakers
(50-13, 21-9 away) 7:30 Central
Rockets
(42-23, 27-6 home)The obvious one. This is one where, unfortunately, unless you just can't bring yourself to do it, you have to root for the Lakers, as a Spurs fan. I know I will be rooting for LA. With Houston only 2 games back, a loss here would really help us out.

Thunder
(17-46, 4-26 away) 8:00 Central
Nuggets
(40-25, 23-8 home)With Denver as much as 4 games back, this probably isn't quite as important as the rest of them, but with Carmelo and more importantly Chauncey, you never know what the Nuggets are capable of. I'll be cheering for Mr. Durant..that's for sure.

Mavericks

(38-25, 14-17 away) 9:00 Central
Trail Blazers
(40-23, 27-5 home)With Portland 3 games back and Dallas 5 games back, a loss for Portland is what I'm wishing for. Doubtful, especially in Portland, but anything's possible.

Very good, detailed post, though I don't think the Spurs are too concerned about seeding. As long as we're in the playoffs, thats all that matters.

I will be for sure watching the Lakers/Rockets game though to do some armchair scouting

Thanks. I agree 100%, but the 2 seed would be great...would give us homecourt adv. until the WCF.

can't root for the lakers. it's just physically impossible for me to do it. only thing i like more than the lakers losing is the spurs winning.

i can't root for the lakers, no matter hard i try. FTL is encoded in my DNA.

You're absolutely correct, that would be awesome to have home court all the way to the WCF (assuming we get there (I always say this to not jinx anything)).

I agree with the two of you up there as well, I will never be able to cheer on the Lakers. I really don't like Boston but you have to admit a Boston le is a uvalot easier to swallow than another LA le.

hawks (don't want the jazz to compete for the second seed and want the jazz to drop to the 4th seed)

wizards ( probably will be blown out but wizards could have a chance at home(

rockets ( i would love the lakers to go winless on this trip plus with rockets tough schedule they really dont have a chance to catch the spurs unless spurs really start struggling)

nuggets( i really want them to get to that third seed to possibly play the spurs in the playoffs so i kinda want them to get hot)

mavs (i want the blazers to start losing so they can play the lakers in the 1st round

I guess I'm on my own in this one...I'd love to see our cushion in the division lead grow..I'm cheering for the Lakers...as hard as it is.
