Miami. Though, the Thunder aren't going to be as easy to beat as a lot of folks think.
The Heat.
They've got the best player in the league. They want to redeem themselves after last year's loss. Assuming the Spurs get to the Finals, they would be a tough team to eliminate.
Next would be the Thunder. You know the Thunder will get a lot of calls their way.
We may not even have to see the Lakers. I'm not scared of Boston.
Miami. Though, the Thunder aren't going to be as easy to beat as a lot of folks think.
I'm not so sure about that. I think we figured some out the last two games. Most important we know if you push bynum around and make it difficult on him he will give up. And pau is a major frontrunner if all is going well, he can play great but put up some resistance and he folds like dirk. When he's a #2 or 3 and kobe is doing the heavy lifting he's a great compliment but when it's on his shoulders, like when he was in memphis he's just a big pussy.
OKC. Should James Harden realize his potential, which is Manuesque. We could be on outside looking in during the NBA finals time.
miami scares me, i'd put our chances of beating them at under 50%. OKC would scare me but westbrook can be turned into a liability for them with some good smart D
What's all this "scared" talk about? Concerned, worried...maybe a bit....but scared?
Only the heat scare me, all the west teams are not going to be a problem for the spurs but the heat have so much fire power, and thats not even the part that makes me nervous, I know the nba would rather lebron get his first ring rather then Duncan getting his 5th. But other then them spurs can take out any other team easily being healthy.
The Spurs tbh. Never before has the world seen such a great team. We do not what such excellence is capable of.
With great power comes great responsibility.

"Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing."
Would the Heat's small lineup without a center here able to defend the Spurs, to the degree of lockdown they have shown this season against other teams?
They don't really gave a center. If the spurs are good enough to exploit that and run the offense, we can beat the heat. If the perimeter talent is just too much, we will look old, slow, and get run out the gym.
The only team I would "fear"would be the heat. But I think any team out there can beat the spurs if they get the right breaks
I think the Mavs set the blueprint for how to beat the Heat. Keep the turnovers down and move the ball on offense. We'll also need big contributions from the big 3 when the offense gets stagnant.
Grizzlies, Lakers and Heat. Would be sweet to see the Spurs crush all three teams en route to the trophy though!
Pretty much all of this is true and makes me wonder why so many spurs fans may fear the heat we have a much better overall team and our ball movement is by far the best in the league even the heats defense would have trouble with the spurs offense its just that good.
Honestly, I'm shocked with how "afraid" you all are of the Heat. The Spurs would beat the Heat in 6, what is with you guys??? The heat obviously have 2 great players, and Bosh is very good. But Duncan VS Bosh is a wash. Duncan can offset him. LeBron Obviously will cause us problems. But I feel Manu can slow Wade down enough. Outside the marquee 3 players Miami has, their bench is obviously paper thin. And clearly the Spurs have the best bench in the NBA. How far can LeBron and Wade take Miami? Do you guys not see fatigue playing any roll in the NBA Finals??? The Spurs are the most rested team in the NBA, and the deepest! Does that mean nothing to any of you? OKC is just as good as Miami, if not better, they are much deeper, and have quite a bit more size, yet OKC is doable for San Antonio??? This is the Spurs drive for 5, and the only reason we won't be getting another ring this year would be due to injuries. Get on board.![]()
Could we start manu and jackson instead? or play diaw as small forward instead? thoughts . . .
Yeah I think the only team the spurs have to worry about is themselves. They are capable of beating anyone in the league, but for years now they've always found ways to beat themselves. This is also the best supporting cast we've had in some time and we're healthy, so there are no more excuses. Let's finish this![]()
Agreed. Spurs have some demons to exorcise. No more head-hanging or fetal positions, please.
None of them. The End.
spurs. the only team that can beat the spurs in a 7 game series.
