    do not like the thread scroll


    not a hard concept
    Spammers could use that same logic and get away with it.

    Do not make stupid threads and I won't have to scroll past them or watch them clog up the from page. "Fire Pop/Bonner Sucks/Trade Paker/etc." This one is right up there with them.

    Especially given with our rash of Lakers fans to the site lately, ST.com could deal with a little (lot) less idiocy and a of a lot more well thought-out posts.

    we haven't peaked at all. our defense needs to improve. stop trying to get people's attention by reaching for stupid complaints. i know this fast start is killing you because it doesn't give you a lot to complain about in spurstalk but just be happy tony parker did not regress after his scandal.

    The question is legit, and we won't know the answer until the end of the season.

    They do look good right now, and I'll take it. I'd rather be winning right now than losing.

    Seriously, no way it can be called peaking when the defense still looks like over most of the season. The team's got a long ways to go, but I love seeing them able to hit the outside shot this season.

    This. The Spurs need to start playing defense for an entire game instead of in halves or quarters before we can make an assessment.

    I think Ducks does have a point. Let us not get too carried away.

    I take solace in the fact that the D can get better, that Hill, Neal, Splitter and Blair have yet to really get in a groove or find a role, and we also have another 10-15 point shooter we'll have to add into the mix as soon as he is back from injury.


    That is A LOT of stuff to work on, but at the same time, we're 11-1...how much better can we get, and what if we only get worse?


    I think it's healthy/wise not to be too excited, satisfied or comfortable with this start.

    There are 70 games left, and just to temper the excitement, at 11-1 we have more room to worsen than we do to improve.

    Peaking??? There is a lot of room for improvement here.. Splitter has yet to get into the rotation and James Anderson is out, so how exactly can you say they are peaking when they're not at their full potential?
    This.

    We need as many of these early wins as we can get because eventually the schedule is going to get brutal.

    weak schedule so far


    They are no where close to peaking considering how many new faces/rotations they have.

    Agree. Very easy schedule. Let's see how they fair against some le contenders.

    Spurs are probably 60% of the potential.

    1) Defense is pretty suspect for most of first halves.
    2) Splitter will be much better, with better conditioning.
    3) Neal can be much more deadly, once ball movement is improved, and against zones.
    4) Bonner could play less (as Splitter plays more).
    5) Blair couln't be any worse than he was in the first 10 games.
    6) Anderson might be back, in March.

    Most importantly, Manu is not really serious at things right now.
    He is not tearing apart defenses on penetrations. No reasons to do that yet.

    So you'd rather we be losing? Re .

    This is nothing. The Spurs have showed there is room for improvement. We are playing good basketball but not great basketball. Our high 3 pt shooting percentage has allowed allowed us to build big leads. Our defense and rotation assignments have got to continue to improve and continue to get the new guys acclamaited. Very good wins that our boys are acquiring and our true peak will happen later in the season. This team has the makings of being the most explosive team in Spurs history so the room for our peak is still there.
    You must not have watched the spurs of the 1970s if you think this team has the makings of the most explosive in Spurs history.

    Stupid...we don't win in the beginning and people say we suck, and don't have a prayer in the playoffs. We go 11-1, and people ask if we're peaking too soon? Just STFU and enjoy the ride...we're playing the best I've seen this team play since the playoffs of '99.

    Yes, they're peaking too soon, and it's probably Manu's fault.

    Just enjoy the games. Would you rather have them lose? I have no idea why you think they are "peaking" too early.

    So we've gone from TPark, to EricB and now Ducks. I can't keep up with all the name changes.
