They're eatin' Duncan's lunch and pretending like they ain't so they can keep getting their fill at an easy clean.
It's pitiful & sad, like when Jordan came back and everybody fed on him like zombies.
Sorry, I was going to make this thread after the Utah game, but it's obvious now. Father time has caught up with SA.....mainly Duncan. Seriously in the 4th quarter Oden got a rebound over Duncan and then had a put back layup that Duncan didn't even try to contest...it made me want to cry and I'm not even a Spurs' fan. Duncan is going to fall off a cliff this season, I saw the same thing happen with Olajuwon, so I know what I'm talking about here. When a big man goes down....he goes down hard. Duncan has hit that wall.
SA doesn't really have any explosive players at all (seriously, they have no fire..and they're exremely soft in the middle) They look old and they're being out hustled. Normally a old team doesn't start showing their flaws until later in the season, but this team is showing them from the get go (so it isn't going to get much better)...the window has officially closed. It's over SA fans.

Because they are old. And contrary to what many believe, they aren't going to magically start looking and playing younger either.
1st quarter is killing the Spurs. Keep getting beat of the draw, it is nothing but uphill.
It's comforting for a defense to play against this Duncan. It's like shaved pussy.
What the would YOU know about shaved pussies?
They look prepuescent so I get what I'm really after.
tee, hee.
God damn, Culburn...you're only funny about 20% of the time, but when you're on, you're ON! (Even though you can't spell worth a .)
The Nuggets and Rockets are going to fight for the second seed. You heard it here first.
Yeah, they've looked really bad against 2 teams that houston man-handled.... and tailgayzers.
duncan has been wearing a knee brace from what i've seen and this probably reflects how his knees are feeling. theres not doubt the spurs are aging, especially since they signed a couple of age weary free agents.
agree... and when you're advocating a guy with a bald spot (Manu) as a main go to guy...you're in trouble...
No, You know what?
Do you know what?
I have nothihng to say.... They are looking old![]()
We did start 1-5 last year and we ended up just fine.....
Yeah, if the Mavs whipping that ass 4-1 is fine.![]()
Even as a Spurs fan, I have to admit that it was disconcerting to see a team that, after 4 days of rest, look sluggish, overmatched and passive in a road game against Utah. Don't know quite what to make of that piss-poor effort.
Their effort and energy was sub-par, their interior defense was as soft as tissue paper and Duncan, and even the younger guys, all looked a step slow. They simply couldn't match Utah's physicality or effort. After 4 days of rest, I expected to see a team that looked energized, vibrant and active.
Most teams can play well at home. My concern with the Spurs is their consistent poor showings in road games, specifically back-to-backs. This dates back to last year.
For now and until I see road performances to the contrary, I can't even begin to argue against the point of the original poster.
They should have gotten Timmy some help 3 or 4 years ago. They really sucked the life out of his career.
Seriously, besides looking old, slow and extremely pathetic what is their motivation? Besides winning b2b, what else is there left to do. The spurs will never win another championship, let alone a b2b.......they know this and there is NO motivation at all. None.
3 or 4 years ago. The Spurs were winning championships. Not sure what you mean by "more help" TP and MG were great.
The Spurs look old, but also it seems like they are just don't want to play these meaningless November games.
I thought the Spurs would be LA's main compe ion. It's probably going to be Denver again and Portland. Still early and SA might just be sluggish.
They should have thought about extending his career. It was obvious the workload they were asking from him was way too much and would bite them down the line. Control the paint offensively and defensively pretty much by himself. It's back breaking work.
Oh I see what you are getting at... you meant bigger bodies. Well you are right. I agree with that.
