Josh Smith out vs Spurs

[Strategic]

It doesn't matter if Joe Bob is playing or not, Spurs just kick some ass and get on with it.

Yeah, God forbid you poor slobs have to take on somebody at full strength. You'd start another O & 6 Fest.

Hi, Poonsie.

Yeah full strength, like the Spurs were not for 4 of those losses you mention, then mention taking on teams at full strength . How the does this make sense?

[celldweller]

IMO Josh Smith is way overrated.

Either you're ing about not being at full strength, or, hoping others aren't at full strength.

Yer weak. Yer puny.

I don't care if Spurs win or lose at this point. I care more on how they look while playing.

If they lose to the Hawks without Smith, they looked like crap.

It's definitely a plus is he's out, his athleticism has really bothered the Spurs over the past couple of years...

The spurs have lived the whole season on good fortune. A fluke season. When it turned against them they crumbled to a 6 game losing streak.

They need to beat a good team at full strenght and Atlanta was a good test.

I'd be apt to agree for the most part, but at this point, I'm not willing to split hairs.

The Spurs had some breaks early (particularly opponents missing players, and some amazing finishes), and they were able to take care of business and capitalize. That hasn't been happening for quite some time now, though.

Say what you want, but things don't come to losing six straight games if even a couple of those bad breaks don't go against them, and thus they wouldn't be in the position they find themselves in now.

Spurs need to go back to taking care of business. No time to screw around with mental tests and moral victories with the Lakers still breathing right down our neck.

Any updates on Josh Smith?

Any updates on Josh Smith?

Last I saw it was a "game time decision."

[DMC]

vBookie on which scrub will have a career game against us?

Overall though, good news.

Spurs need to take advantage of a little good fortune.

You read my mind before I even thought it.

Hi, Poonsie.

A Lakers fan complaining about someone else's luck? This should be grounds for a ban.
