from my observation of the 2 games so far, this better not be a replica of t he season where we live by the 3 die by the 3pt shot....

Bro, and if the spurs were losing, you would be saying BLOW IT UP! So which is it?
I said Manu and Tim can have their farewell tour... win or lose...
We won 60 in the regular season last year... where was this thread then?
Bro, last year was a serious of unfortunate events. This team dominated clippers a team that would have beat them last year
I still think we're short one big. I'm also not sold this Clippers team makes the playoffs, tbh. Too early.
The Clippers will be fine I think. They haven't found their stride, how could they? Remember how long it took Miami last year to find theirs? , you have so many new guys. How can Paul, Billups, Blake, Butler and Jordan (not to mention Mo Williams) not make the playoffs?
I think it would be tragic if the Clippers didn't make the playoffs. But I'm not sold on them as contenders either. They have a strong core but I doubt Griffin knows the start of being the best player on a championship team quite yet. And at that, I don't think CP3 can lead a team to a le. Even one with Blake Griffin.
Didn't the Spurs beat Miami by 30 last season too?![]()
At what point do you actually become a decent poster? You haven't been worth a since you were posting on NBAWire back in 2004. You'd figure at some point you'd figure it out.
I actually think a good, seasoned coach would do wonders for them... but it's Del Negro or bust
True. Vinny very well may be over his head. During a couple of his in game shots he looked a bit lost, not angry, not happy, just owning this blank, saucer-eyed stare.
RIP...it was good times, brother. Made a lot of good memories there. I've tried to talk Ryan in to coming over here a couple of times but he's yet to show up. BeeGee posted here some but I haven't seen him in a while.
The Spurs won that game by getting hot from 3pt land like a lot of games last year. They didn't defend well last year. Lack of defense hurt them against the Grizzlies when they couldn't make their 3pt shots. However, this team is showing signs that it can play good defense.
I agree there's good signs on the defensive end. But don't underestimate our reliance on the 3 ball yet. The good news is that we've been winning despite our 3 point specialist being abysmal* out there. At least RJ is hitting timely threes.
*While he shot 2/4 today, the last 3 was when we were already up 25, and he's shooting 30% so far in 2 games.
The Mavs got hot from 3pt land at the right time last season, why can't we? Still we need another bigman.
Wut happened to nbawire?
And who was TWF's on there?
Bro, Im flattered you remember me from NBAwire. I didnt even know you posted there. However I am sure if I browsed through the records you still would be trying to convince the fellow board members you know better then pop.
I think the Clippers roster is ed....they start 2 point guards and their backup guard is another point guard...wtf?
They had a massive server crash that nuked the whole board. Everything was lost...the old format, all the old posts and threads...everything. Syxx tried to rebuild it from scratch but with the old board gone things just weren't the same and it eventually died.
TWF posted under the same name. He would stop in occasionally with his takes and I eventually ran his ass off because I got tired of it. I was moderating the Spurs board there at the time.
That place was great in the mid 00's. Never was the busiest board but it had a core group of posters that were solid. I really cut my teeth there from a posting standpoint and made a lot of good friends. Sucks that all of us were scattered all over the country because I would have loved to have had a beer with some of them.
And they played all three together for a stretch in the second half.
Or, like that season where you lived by the 3 and died by the 8.
