record for next 8 games?

[Supergirl]

7-1, withe the only loss being on the road either in NYC or Boston

[EVAY]

4-3

I'm anticipating a loss to the Nuggets (revenge) and a win against the Magic (they didn't look good yesterday and are still working out their chemistry issues).

I actually think they'll beat the Mavs and drop games against the Lakers and the Celtics.

[Refocus]

5-2

[honestfool84]

i DO NOT want to lose to Dallas...or the Lakers, or Boston. but mostly Dallas. haha.

With a lot of the Spurs points coming the way of the 3, not many teams will be able to stop the offense. The problem might be the defense against good teams. Also, injuries are always a day away.

Barring injury, and if Hill returns, I see the Spurs competing in every game. Winning is a toss of the coin, depending on whether the other team shows up or not.

Some teams just get red hot and it lasts long enough to bury the opponent in points, especially if it coincides with offensive woes on the the opposing squad. Just look at the 76ers game tonight. The Bulls win regardless, but not by 50 on any other night.

[DMC]

i'd much rather beat the Lakers and Dallas but lose to the Celtics, though I'd hope the Celtics would lose a few more games between now and then.

This ...

If the Spurs beat Dallas and LA, that means a of a lot more down the road than beating Boston. Ideally we beat all three, but that's a tall order. I would like to see the Spurs compete in all games, but Boston has been known to bury teams quickly like they did to the Lakers in the final game of the series a few years back.

That's not just rivalry. The Spurs gain a game on Dallas that way.

[Juanobili]

As. Long. As. They. Beat. The. Mavs. >:[

[DMC]

The bull stops here though. If we tank this set, it's going to be tough for anyone to take us seriously. If we win all, we will be treated like the team to beat and games become even harder. Still, I cannot pick a game I want the Spurs to lose.

Judging by the thread, Spurs fans feel that they're due for some losses.. Think we'll go 4-3 the next 7. Gonna be tough. We'll see how good the Spurs really are and where they're at.
Be shocked if they go more than 4-3..

[Crickets]

1-7

I wouldnt be shocked either way. We are suppose to be a contender though, so we should be able to pull through a tough stretch.

[UnWantedTheory]

1-7

At least you gave us 1 win. Something to build off of.

[Old School 44]

6-1, We beat Mavs, Celtics, Lakers with the one loss coming from one of the lesser teams.

[kjhip1]

1-7

Silly Troll

[DMC]

I don't feel like anyone thinks we're due losses (the other team perhaps), but we all know that some of these wins are because the ball or a call came our way at the right time, or a shot fell that could have clanked. It's gambler's fallacy, but we all fall for it... we are bound to get a close one that doesn't go our way. I am OK with that if the other team actually beats us. giving it to them though.

[AlleyOopNazi]

I dun fukin know, Boston is the only team that scares my this yr.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

6-1, the loss coming Thursday @ Orlando.

Correct.

[angelbelow]

5-2

[rascal]

Denver will want revenge... and Orlando is the very next night. Hopefully, Orlando will have chemistry issues (will they all be available to play?).

LA will be a big game, followed two nights later at Dallas.

I don't think we lose to the Thunder, but they will tire us out... and then we have Boston on the second night of a back to back.

I would put my money on 2 losses... but they could come to almost any team in that stretch.

The spurs have historically done well in Boston.

[spursfaninla]

So far, Spurs are 4-1; Boston is obviously the tougher of the two, and I expect the Spurs win at least 1 of the next 2, and to finish 5-2 at worst. If they manage 6-1 out of 7 games against all of the elite teams minus maybe chicago and miami....pretty impressive.

[KenziE]

6-1 NEAL with it

[spursfaninla]

Chicago's a second-tier team, not an elite team. (a lot like OKC).

Well, Chicago scores well on Hollinger's power rankings, and they are 3rd in the east.

Anyway, we can wait until we finish with NY and Boston before looking back at our predictions.

I thought they would lose 2; hopefully I am wrong but they have to lose every once in a while...

[Rummpd]

the funny thing is the Spurs have had a history of letting down against poorer teams then going on unreal runs against the league regardless of the competion. I am guessing 5 and 2 but it would not surprise me at all for this team to get insanely hot and run the table!

Pretty good pick, they layed down for the Orlando game but otherwise have played well!

[bigbendbruisebrother]

I know we've already lost one, but I'm going with 7-0. That's how good this team is. I think they can still pull that Orlando game out.
