I don't know tbh.
Just think about it for a minute. The Spurs have an extremely easy path to the Finals. The Warriors are going to upset a team that had a franchise best in wins this season. Westbrick is hurt and won't play for OKC. Lecrab has a good chance of going back to the Finals. Is this year going to be like 2007? The Warriors are likely to go to the 2nd round of the playoffs. In 2007, the Spurs didn't have the pleasure of playing them in the playoffs.
The only thing that would be different in the Finals for the Spurs is they won't have HCA against the Heat if they meet up in the Finals. The Spurs have always had HCA in the Finals. They have never even trailed in the Finals too. Might be new territory for the team. How would Spurs fans react if their team only got a Western Conference championship this year but fell short in the Finals?
Most likely, except the Spurs will now be in the Cavs' role this time around.
Tbh, to start the season the Spurs' ceiling was the Finals so making that is a job well done. Prolly won't get swept but winning more than five would be an accomplishment.
spurs getting to the finals is like a championship at this point imo, i just hope they win a couple of games vs lebron and the heat
says the guy who wouldn't have been surprised if we lost to the lakers
Damn spurraider21 goin ham on that ass.![]()
The Mavs were huge underdogs and didn't have HCA against the Heat in 2011. Why couldn't this year's Spurs do that? They have Tim Duncan. Tim in Duncan. He is much better than Tyson Chandler and who the is going to guard him on the Heat? Lebron or fruity bas Bosh? You serious?
the finals featuring spurs & heat will be fun to watch tbh. spurs haven't lost no finals in the duncan era, say every time they reached the finals they could bring home the trophy, but it'll be very hard for them to continue the trend this year when they have to face miami in the finals.
I was about to make a thread about how this year seems like 2007 all over again in alot of ways... IN weird. This is the weirdest since I found out Thread is wearing his grandmother's panties right now having a hardcore debate with himself over returning to Spurstalk
Just get there I dont give a if we arent favored or if other players got injured. Noone gave the Mavs a shot in 2011 against the Heatles and look what happened.
Brother, that's a stretch.
Spurs would definitely be the underdogs but we'd be compe ive at least. The 07 Cavs were an atrocity.
They didn't deserve a vote of confidence with the way they finished the season. They were playing terrible, terrible basketball. And at that point, I wouldn't have been surprised. Even in game 1, they looked shaky. Glad they worked the cobwebs out and found their rhythm, but I had good reason to be nervous.
I also didn't expect Dwight to be this bad.I expected him to have a good series against Splitter/Duncan. But holy , is the guy dysfunctional.
We'll see. No matter what, making the Finals will be gravy. We do that, and the season will have far exceeded my expectations.
midnightpulp time to nut up and believe .![]()
As of right now okc vs spurs matchup is about even.and okc has home court. Its. Ahuge order for spurs to go steal one in okc. Imo thy are still not quite there yet
we go as far tosb duncan will carry us
could care less about the rest
Norris Cole
Not that i take you any serious, But the question shouldn't be who the is going to defend duncan if you get what i mean.![]()
The real question is who is going to defend Cory Joseph tbh
We swept the Lakers...okay, a beaten up Lakers, but the Lakers nonetheless. Anything after that is gravy.
Would love to see a Spurs-Heat Finals, though.
GO SPURS GO!!!!!
this is a high quality thread, with a very valid point from the op![]()
