A win means next to nothing other than a possible lower draft pick. The spurs are not winning a le this year.
Mike Brown sending the Spurs some love...

I honestly think Mike Brown is throwing the Spurs a bone, good karma for him.
I agree about Mike Brown, but I figured they would rest The King anyways..I don't remember for sure, but he usually takes more than 1 game off when he has even minor injuries..it's a good idea, he carries them every night, he could use some rest..
First of all, you're utterly depressing and negative.
Second, a win or loss tonight isn't going to affect the long-term outcome of the Spurs' draft position this summer. They're firmly entrenched in the bottom third of the playoff seeds.
If you're going to hope for the Spurs to lose every game from here on out, why don't you jump off the bandwagon for good and stop posting.
No LeBron vs. Spurs
By Jeff McDonald
The night's most signficant game-time decision has come down. LeBron James will not play for Cleveland tonight against the Spurs.
With an eye toward keeping James fresh for the season's stretch run, Cleveland coach Mike Brown has opted to sit his team's best player for the second game in a row. Without James, the Cavs lost 92-85 at Milwaukee on Sunday.
"It was a great opportunity to rest a guy who has played a ton of minutes," Brown said.
After tonight, the Cavs don't play again until Friday against Philadelphia. Brown's decision to sit James again gives him a week off.
Obviously, James' absence greatly enhances the Spurs' chances of extending their winning streak to five games tonight. Over the past three seasons, Cleveland is 0-7 without James in the lineup.
I said almost always. Not to mention the Spurs need wins, the Cavs are pretty comfortable.
excellent post![]()
I am all for putting a team together for next year to make a legitimate run for a le. Getting stronger front court players is a neccessity. And getting the best draft pick will work towardds that and thats a positive.
A couple wins difference can make or break the draft because so many teams are bunched up. I am already looking forward to next year because the spurs roster as it now is not going to get past the top teams this year.
It is not happening this year with a weak frontline and thats reality.
If you want to bury your head in the sand and get excited over wins against undermanned teams go right ahead. But its not going to make any difference when the spurs won't get out of the early rounds.

yeah u're right this is why Pop considers Bogans the centerpiece of the spurs it's for giving a chance to the other teams.
Terrible post.
As weird as it may seem for an NBA coach to do, I think he might be more inclined to rest Bron with tony out for the Spurs. It reminds me of the preseason game when Pop allowed his assistants to run the game, and Mike Brown made a gametime decision to do the same.
We can't blow this chance. If we lose today I will be even more upset than when we lost to the Lakers without Kobe.
