    Was this a playoffs opener loss that you shrug off and say "the guys in silver and black will figure it out," or or this a loss that you see as the beginning to the end? IOW, do they have 16 more wins in the tank?

    I'm just concerned about winning this series. This team obviously isn't complete enough to win a le, but who cares? We've got 4 les, we're playing with house money here.

    I know, but some around here act like you can't be a "true" fan unless you believe that they're going to win it all every season.

    Tell Holt we are playing with house money...he gave away Ratliff to save "house money" after all.

    I'm a Spur fan. I don't consider fans that root for their team to tank the season to get a good draft pick actual fans.

    Sounds like mexicanjunior up dere^

    I believe that we shot ourselves in the foot, and they played well. We still have a good shot of winning the series though, as this is the NBA. Anything can happen.

    What's your point? That doesn't even make sense.

    Good luck with that...I'm sure this first round exit will do more wonders for this team next year than any first round pick could have...

    So you write off YOUR team before the series is even over? It was game 1 in Dallas.. Pathetic..

    Will Bonner, Mason, and Bogans miraculously play better? Will Hill's ankle magically heal? Will Parker stop running in molasses? What is dramatically going to change next game to make you think the result will be different?

    I was hoping to get the first game but, with all those TOs it seemed impossible!

    Maybe winning game 2 & comming home with momentum is whats in store for the Spurs!

    do you think (predict?) that we will win 16 games this post-season and walk away with the trophy? is this loss a warning sign of things to come, or are we fine?

    I remember when a playoffs opener loss was par for the course during a championship season. Is this another championship season?

    We lost by 6.

    Dallas shot 20 more free throws than us.

    Dallas was at home in game 1.

    That is all

    Were we ever a 7th seed without home court advantage in those?

    We were down 12 with 2 minutes to go in the game...losing by 6 after the dogs got called off is not very comforting but feel free to pacify yourself with it.

    You didn't answer any of my questions though...typical homerism BS at it's finest.

    I don't predict anything. I just believe in my team, and will continue to do so until we are officially out of the le picture.

    IOW, do they have 16 more wins in the tank?
    I see Mavs winning 15 more but not the Spews

    I always laugh at doomsday poster in any type of forums. I believe in my team, as I am a Spurs fan.. If you don't believe in your team, then why are you still here?

    +1

    Both teams are evenly matched. Other than the Lakers, the Mavs are the team that would give us the most difficulty in a series. Saying that....I like our chances against the Mavs.

    Thank you for saying it. 20 more free throw attempts when we out scored them in points in the paint, just doesn't seem fair.

    And I always laugh at the "Believe...it's only April..." posters that stay in denial as Rome crumbles around them. I will always be a Spurs fan and hope for the best but I can't live in fantasy land with you. This team would have been better off trying to improve for next year with a lottery pick than having to be strung up and exposed in the 1st round.

    Minimize the turnovers. Be more aggressive, which will result in more free throws. If I remember correctly, you wanted the Spurs to tank, so they could get in the lottery right Mex. Jr.?
