Went home from work, to check out MYSA.COM, Double take heart sank. Im sure the spurs were feeling like all of us at first. But then after thinking about it I relized that this is far from over. Sure our boys dont have one of the cogs but we still have plenty of guys that can come through.
This is a big but is not impossible, Spurs will be there.
i don't really want the spurs to make it to the WCF just to get swept by the lakers.
ofcourse it is
but spurs won games without the big three healthy this year
If we're playing well enough to get the WCF, two things have happened, either we already beat the Lakers, because we still could drop down to the 4 seed, or, if we can take out 2 teams to get to them, we won't get swept.
If the Spurs even win a round in the playoffs i swear to God ill shed some tears....
yeah i really have no expectations now...so it would be pretty sweet to win a series
Reality check:
No Ginobili + Duncan @ 75% = 2nd round exit
We will be lucky to win 2 games in the first round, HCA or not...
Not a good sig to have today.
In 2006, the Suns went back to the WCF without Amare Stoudemire
We can do this !!!!
??? Who can we beat with no Manu and a 75% Duncan. We've been that way since the start of the Rodeo Road Trip and we have not had much success. Being realistic we'll be lucky to win 2 games in the first round with Tony carrying the load but, when you look at the other 7 teams I just don't see how we get out of the 1st round without a healthy Timmy. We could win 2 series but, not against teams like Cleveland, LA, Boston or Orlando. Having said that let's hope for the best. Rest Timmy till the playoffs start. He is hurting big time.
We don't have a Boris Diaw type to replace what Manu does...or the Clippers to ease by in the playoffs...
Roger Mason filled in pretty damn good for Manu while he was out. IT can be done. Dont doubt this team. Dont doubt TD, TP, Pop, and Bowen.
First post, firt try.
What about Gelabale? He's coming back from an acl and having good numbers with the D-fenders.
He's got nba experience under his belt and have put decent numbers when he's got PT
Gelabale for Ginobili.. sounds similar? At this late stage of the season its too late to add an untested player or tinker with the roster. The coaching staff would have to make do with this existing roster
Agreed, of course we can!!!!!
End of the line.
I'm pretty sure, we are still a playoff contender
Given the fact that Duncan is 100%
So banged up duncan = 1st round exit
Healthy duncan + shooters shooting lights out like early in the season, and we still have a chance
Manu's absence actually doesn't have some much harm as it's supposed to have, it just makes it difficult for spurs to defeat their rivals like lakers and our boys in blue. Even without Manu the spurs will still beat the scrub teams very easily, the preference will still be on spurs even if they face those mid-class contenders like Hornets or blazers, not to mention the rockets which are simply a bunch of chockers.
Laker's decade has already passed, I'm afraid you will root for the spurs when they are playing with our boys in blue in WCF, wishing the spurs to revenge your team by beating our boys in blue who would have already beaten the Fakers in the first round.
