Stfu....![]()
Even with the new acquisitions of Hill, Mason, and Gooden. We are still no match for the Lakers. I want to be optimistic, but the Lakers are even better then they were last year. It seems like they aren't even intimidated by us anymore. They feel like they can beat us anytime they want.
And to think they were playing a back to back on our home floor. The last game was a close one and we managed to pull through with a win even though we got lucky with mason's 3pt play and the refs calling a travel on Ariza when he only took 2 steps and got fouled. This season could've been an easy sweep for the Lakers. Which is why im worried. I was optimistic last season because the spurs just dissapointed me in the end.
We are too old and Kobe is just too good. Its time to face the facts and not Hate but congradulate cause I seriously enjoyed watching them play today and I'm a die hard spurs fan. Just being real. Lets hope for a western conference rematch...or lets just hope we dont get swept!!!![]()
GET OUT OF HERE YOU BANDWAGONER![]()
You stfu. I'm simply stating the facts. Bi@tch.
u sure u are a spurs fan?
your 1st post~
Yep..been a die hard fan since birth, but I really want to be real. Lakers are just on another level. I'm tired of being optimistic because look what happened last year.
a real spurs fan keeps hope.
thats fine
that way if we lose in the playoffs, we can take it lightly
if we win, then great!
Just BELIEVE
u dont have to feel down when we lose
One could also argue that we looked pretty average in 2007 when the most dynamic team in the league (one of the most dominant in regular season play that got bounced in the 1st round) and we won it then. Granted, the injury situation was different as well as the level of overall league compe ion, but the lesson there is NOTHING is to be assumed...even by the faint of heart in the darkest of hours. Especially when it comes to Pop and the Spurs.
lakers are not an easy team, no doubt about that... but the Spurs can beat the best.. they have proved that in the past, and they can prove it again for sure..
A real spurs fan would admit what is realistic and not post a thread that says...LAKERS HAVE NO CHANCE AGAINST THE SPURS IN THE PLAYOFFS. I'm stating the fact that the Lakers are far better then us even with a healthy Manu. With Bynum back it will be even harder to score in the paint. We got our butts whooped tonight and theres a difference between being realistic and being absolutely ignorant. We need to face facts thats all. Maybe if when we do it'll stop people posting up ridiculous posts.
A healthy manu is all we need.
We got our butts whooped and then cut the deficit down substantially against a better team.
Dude may be onto someting...about this year. But the "window" is not closing quite yet. Spurs just need to put a few pieces together next year if this year does not work out...
Spurs will compete for a le for at least 3 more years.
Why are people having conversations with this phony? He's likely just a Laker fan messing around after the Laker win.
What's sad is that it probably took him 30 minutes to come up with the username, "Spursarethebest" because "I'maSpursfan" and "Spursfan4Life" were already taken.
What do we have to offer given that they will not separate the nucleus of Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili. There's is no one we can trade that would make a significant impact. Only way to make an impact is to sign a free agent and we dont have much cap space to do so. We are getting older by the second and our window is closing with all these injuries. Duncan is not the same. Manu won't be fully healthy untill next year. And the Lakers are young and experienced. So with that said..we need to pull something out of our a$$es to win this year.
- Manu wasn't playing. He's is our difference maker.
- Gooden played 3 minutes.
- Duncan is still a little hurt.
We're obviously not healthy yet. Yes the Lakers are a better team right now. but we have as good as a chance as them to win the le this year.
This statement could've seemingly been made about the Spurs teams of the last several years, including the ones where we won it all. Just replace Manu's name in the injury area with someone else's and the Lakers with another team. Not saying you haven't made valid points, but they can be just as easily dismissed as they can be accepted IMO.
All im saying that we do have a good team, but without a miracle there is no way we can bulldoze thru the Lakers to the NBA finals. If we keep saying us being healthy is an excuse then the Lakers can say they aren't healthy either. The fact is they are younger..more athletic and most of all they have kobe. In a 7 game series we can give it our all, but I've lost faith until someone gives me a logical reason that we can win the NBA le. Not just meet the lakers in the playoffs but WIN!!!
It's pretty obvious that's a Lakers fan postering.
Not much to take from this game other than Duncan needs to get his mojo back come playoff time. There is no way to know who would win if both teams are 100% healthy as it's a very even and close matchup. If either team goes in less than 100% then the other team has the advantage. No way the Spurs win in the playoffs without Manu so the only thing this game means is that the Lakers would win in a series with Manu and Gooden out. No surprise there.
Spurs are fine. Drink less. Smoke less. Whatever it is that made you start this thread.
Here is your logical reason.
THE PLAYOFFS HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED YET!!!
Don't count out a team until after their playoff series is over. Who is to say the Spurs will even have to face the Lakers? What if (big what if), the Lakers get bounced out in the first round ala Mavericks? Wait until the playoffs start before you start posting these panic threads man.
One can understand your hysteria to a degree. We all have those moments, epsecially during games. But we have no idea what the new pieces will contribute when all active at the same time, nor do we know how Pop will adjust to L.A. come playoff time. The fact that we came back against a better Laker team that clearly outplyed us should scare L.A., regardless of the health situation. The game should never have gotten that close. Nothing is guaranteed come the postseasn except that Duncan and Kobe have the propensity to go off at any moment in any game of the postseason as long as they have legs to stand on.
