Actually I've counted like 40 losses and 33 wins for regular season leaders over the years.
Maybe off a few numbers one way or the other.
ring
wcfinals
second round
first round
WCF, I don't think they'll beat the Lakers TBH. Lakers are still the deeper and better team.

lol did you just say the celtics win it all (including beating your Spurs) then turn around to bash the lakers? LOL...you got your priorities all wrong.
Venti gives respect to the Spurs, and just states that he has confidence in his team (the back to back champs), and you still act like a jackass.
This is what I think:
1 of 2 things will happen guaranteed.
1) The Spurs will continue there tear through the regular season and position themselves as the #1 overall seed in the NBA. That would only set up even greater disappointment in Spurs land.
Spurs don't play playoff basketball
- rely too heavily on the 3p shot
- no low post game
- team defense is spotty at best
- no legit superstar to take over games
- overly reliant on deep rotation
So when they meet a team that slows the game down, plays tough team D they will be exposed for all the things they lack. Happens every year to the pretender teams that run through the regular season chucking 3s.
- Cleveland the last 2 years
- Suns throughout the last 6 years
- Mavs, etc. etc
or 2) Ginobili or Duncan suffers a marginal injury before seasons end and then all the excuses come about from Spurs fans how this would have been le #5 blah blah blah if this never happened. They would have become the first chucker team in history to win a le... right!
Really?
god bless.
WCF, wouldn't be suprised by a second round defeat though.
first of, scenario 2, could happen to any team. so irrelevant
on scenario 1:
- rely too heavily on the 3p shot
Spurs have always relied on 3, check our previous 3 championships
- no low post game
Lakers have Gasol, Spurs have Tim Duncan
- team defense is spotty at best
Spurs have comparable D to Lakers
- no legit superstar to take over games
Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker
- overly reliant on deep rotation
Yes that is a bad thing,
lol Spurs #8 seed...
Epic Failure.
That wasn't a guarantee, that was a projection.lol Spurs #8 seed...
You're such a weasel.

Yes that is a bad thing,
1) Not as much as this season. Tim was the focus of the offense before, now he's not. Earlier you had both Tim and David. Now you have a s of Tim aka, 7 and 7 because that's all he's really good for on any given night, 7 points and 7 boards
2) Lol @ 7 and 7 and ignoring the fact that the Lakers have Bynum and Gasol both of whom can outperform 7 and 7
3) You don't have the length down low nor the star caliber defenders like Artest and Kobe on the perimeter. Nothing like the Lakers.
4) HAahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahh ahahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahah ahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahaha
5) For the playoffs when teams tighten their rotations down to 8 man teams, sure, it can be a problem.
I didn't come out and say "I guarantee the Spurs will get the 8th seed."
How do you not understand the difference?
Name something you've been right about since coming to Spurstalk. Be specific and provide links.
An incredibly epic failure of a projection that couldn't possibly be more wrong unless you stated (you did) that the Spurs would be irrelevant and not even make the playoffs.
finals arent a lock, but im pretty confident theyll get there
i fear the Cs tho tbh...so wheres the finals option?? still wouldve voted ring regardless but just saying
Better? Maybe, but they haven't shown to be the better team so far this season
Deeper? Really? Even most of the Lakers fans will probably disagree with you on that one.
Spurs fans are the most clueless overzealous delusional homers on the face of the planet.
lol can't name a single thing he's been right about
So the Spurs are playing better than I expected... DARN!
Still not relevant in the bigger picture of things as no contender fears that small 3p chucking disaster waiting to happen.
So, . . . nothing, then?
Yeah, exactly, even you LOL @ you, dumbass.
2-0 .Still not relevant in the bigger picture of things as no contender fears that small 3p chucking disaster waiting to happen.
I've talked about the Magical Ping Pong Ball Era being unlikely to ever be reproduced by the franchise.
Hakeem Olajuwon absolutely destroying David Cake Boy Robinson in humiliating fashion in 1995.
Hakeem being the superior big man to Tim Duncan.
The Lakers being the superior franchise to the Spurs in this or any era of the NBA.
Hmmm, I'd have to think a little more about topics I've discussed here beyond those...
