Sure
Sure
If the Spurs end up playing them its in the WCF...which is by no means an embarrassment to reach.
Spurs-Grizzlies couldn't happen until the WCF. And I think the Spurs would win in 6.
the frontline has dramatically changed
the SF rotation has changed with SA rolling with guys who arent 6'2 anymore
Memphis 3 point threats like Mayo Vasquez and Battier who was huge are gone
Tony seems to like playing vs Memphis now vs being scared or whatever happened to him in 2011
Ginobilis arm isnt in a cast
Duncan isnt having the worst season of his career
Tiago, maybe a little Baynes (dogpraying.jpg), Manu with two working elbows, Kawhi who's better than any of the other wing players we had back then, Timmy's playing better this year than that one, so is Tony, we have a much better defensive 2nd string pg in CoJo than we had back then. I think we match up much better against the Grizz this year than we did then, so no, it doesn't worry me too much. Just gotta hope everyone stays healthy.
Are they going to tell us a really dirty joke?
this is the credited response
no. Spurs in 6.
What's up with you little pussies starting threads? Memphis isn't even out of the first RD and you are worried they are going to embarrass us? This isn't 2011 we are a better team, they lost some important pieces. Bring them on.
I could have sworn we are on different sides of the Western Conf. Bracket.
Must have dozed off.
So when do we play them?
Memphis will probably be coming off 2 consecutive tough 6-7 game series. So yes it would be pretty embarrassing if they beat us
They were the nightmare matchup for us with that 2011 team. This year the Spurs are the nightmare matchup for them. Can take advantage of them inside and out with this team.
Barring injury, the Spurs are very close to a lock for the Finals. First time that can be said in years.
thank you that's all i needed.
Pretty much. The West is wide open this year. Last time was probably '07.
Embarrassed? No, there'll be nothing embarrassing losing to Memphis. Just as there wasn't anything embarrassing losing to them in 2011 IMO, this years team is basically that 2011 team + Tayshaun Prince (Gay was injured).
Conley won the matchup against Parker in 2011, and that will be the key battle. 2013 Timmy/Splitter is far, far better than 2011 Timmy/McDyess. Memphis are without Mayo and Battier which is big.
I think we win, but it will be a great series.
Both teams play great D. We have the Better O, and more weapons. Spurs in 5 or 6.
We are the better team+ Randolph struggles against Splitter. If they allow 95 they are probably screwed they just don't have the offense to compete.
No, #1seed losing against #8 seed is embarrassing, but in the finals, no way.
In fact, IMO, losing the conference finals in 6-7 games is considered a good year. Having the opportunity to play against Miami in the finals would be awesome.
Embarrassing??? Getting swept by the Lakers.
Spurs will beat the ever loving crap out of Memphis. They will play angry because of the 8-1 loss. Spurs in 4 or 5.
I hope we make it that far, Go Spurs Go!
If the Spurs stay healthy, no.
naw. Memphis is going to get beaten in 6 by the Spurs. Maybe 5. There's another round of basketball to play first, so why don't we (hopefully) enjoy that first.
