Utah LA Dallas

That order IMO.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Wow, had no idea we had a streak like that going. Nice job, San Antonio!

[rascal]

Even with all their injury problems, they are 2nd in point differential in the West behind Utah.

I think we can all be proud of our Spurs' effort this year even though they are clinging to the hope of not being an 8 seed.

I like their chances in playoffs against everyone except Utah.

They will not be the 8th seed. OKC is choking and will be the 8th seed.

Even better, if you look at our points allowed per game, I think we're either second or third among the 8 western playoff teams. Defense still isn't great, but still better than a majority of the west.

[Galileo]

Guess it will be a while before we have to worry about anybody threatening this one.

Like 10 years!!

[Mixability]

Damn, that's some dominance right there!

[Darkwaters]

Like 10 years!!

And thats assuming that they don't continue to extend it next year...

i would say the jazz haven't played the "new" spurs. i bet if they played the spurs tonight, they'd lose (with or without ak47)

The only teams with a current streak of at least two consecutive seasons:

Spurs: 13
Boston: 3
Lakers: 3
Orlando: 3
Cleveland: 2

...

Utah LA Dallas

That order IMO.

We would crush Utah.

Dallas, on the other hand...

I think it is also note worthy that the Spurs have missed the playoffs only 4 times in their 34 year NBA history. Maybe, that is why we have grown to expect so much from our team.

And three of those non-playoff years were followed by solid draftees to say the least.

1987 - D-Rob
1989 - Elliott
1997 - That dude with the weird Merlin tattoo

So even in the bad years, we win.

With Spurs win in Denver, they just set an NBA record by finishing with a winning record on the road for the 13th consecutive season

Juxtaposing stats like this against total media coverage it might be safe to say we are easily the most overlooked dynasty in sports history. I mean a guy like Wade (who is great) on the HEAT has probably received more media attention all than our entire team all year.

Of course this has been the story for decades, that's why we just shut up and win.

[BillMc]

If the past two months are any indication of how this team can play, then next year (with Jefferson, Blair, Dice and Temple all having MORE time to get down the system, Tony healthy, possibly Splitter, ) we may have a very nice record. It all depends on health....

[exstatic]

I fear the lakers more than Utah. Utah is still as dumb as a box of rocks.

Yeah, they beat us twice early, once with Zombie Manu in the lineup, and once with Parker AND Manu inactive. All four games were done by 20 January. You can't really judge a team against SA unless they have felt The SPAM.

Utah is really a donut team, and I fear them not at ALL in the playoffs. Other than this abberation year, we've just owned them during the Booz/CWill era.

[TampaDude]

I don't fear the Fakers. Bring 'em on!!!

[duhoh]

this is dynastic news!

[ShoogarBear]

Let's hope this doesn't make the 13th consecutive season with a Jim jinx thread.

[angelbelow]

good

haha that's right - good old times of Jimx50
