So what you're implying is that we're lucky to be in the 2nd round because we got to play the biggest failure in sports history?
Can't say I disagree.
I called them out before the 1st round. Though they play a system and play it well, they are stacked with ty players and in the playoffs those ty players stink it up. Bonner, Neal, Green (yeah he hit some outside shots last night) all are just pawns on the floor. Tim is too slow to keep up with the Warriors, and Manu's body has deceived his mind. He cannot do what he used to do. Parker is a one man show basically, and that's never going to work against a team that's 80% offense. Teams that rely on their PG to score all the points are not going anywhere.
Had the Lakers been healthy, I doubt the Spurs see the 2nd round. They certainly won't see the next round.
The Warriors are a flash in the pan. They won't go past the next round if they get there. They remind me of the GSW that beat Dallas, shooting lights out but no defense. Spurs missed every outside shot in the 1st half and still have 43 points.
Spurs are slow, they're done. They were done 4 years ago. No one told them yet. That shows just how ty the league is that the Spurs can consistently be 1st or 2nd in the West at the end of the season.

How can any team defend against all the bull shooting from GS tbh?
The Lakers/Celtics era of the NBA has evolved into the Thunder/Heat era.
Nah, we still going to the Finals imo.
Absolutely. How could a team be any worse than LA? They benched all their players with fake injuries to try to escape the mantra of tiest team ever, but it stuck. No ing way even the Wizards would have lost that bad 4 in a row.
DMC if you were a betting man I would bet you on this series.
spurs made the WCF last year and only got defeated by OKC who still had beard and westchuck at that time. OKC are ed with beard gone and chuck down, so its safe to say spurs are now the favorite to come out of the west, and the spurs will only play better when splitter comes back to their lineups in game 3 or 4.
immigrants have no faith in their own country and such insecurity also extends to basketball, however, DMC would be welcome on our fan base once he decides to jump over onto our board tbh
How about I get to pick your avatar if you lose? If I lose, you get to pick your own?
Aint gonna happen. I don't jump and I'm too old to come floating into Miami on a wooden pallet.
I say this even before the playoffs started, almost at the beginning of the season.
I knew Spurs ceiling was the second round. Given that for the past 3 years they have kept all their players intact up until the Jackson trade and the end result I just knew this was fool's gold. You can adjust all you want but the lack of movement management wise always catches up to you.
You would think they would catch on on this fact seen as how the last 3 years has played out. Carbon copy.
We need to get rid of some hot gargabe on this team.
A new outlook is badly needed.
too many useless PGs and SGs. I wouldn't be surprised if the Spurms traded Bonner, Bane, and Splitter for more PGs this offseason
Yeah this team is looking pretty ty. They're not getting by this GSW squad.
Yeah Warriors are a flukey shooting team on a hot streak, and our perimeter defense is pretty horrid. The late game execution in this game by both teams was complete , Spurs were just cold this time around.
I don't think it's crazy that this team makes the finals tbh. The other three teams have massive holes too. This isn't the Western Conference where you had to go through Shaq, Nowitzki, and the Kings. Once Westbrook went down the conference became a coin-flip and honestly, I wouldn't be all that surprised by any of the four teams still standing getting the chance to play fluffer to Miami.
No way the Spurs, with the way Manu is chucking up bricks, with the way the rest of the team is playing, is going to make the finals. They better hope the Warriors put them out of their miseries so that they don't get injured by fat Gasol tbh.
spurs looked tired as out there and it's easy to see they're still doing warm-ups. just hope they can get back to their best form in time. they can't beat the warriors while playing at 60-70% of their normal level imho
That aint gonna happen either. Until Duncan hangs it up, which he won't before he's pretty much benched for 40 minutes a game, the Spurs are going to ride out the regular season fairytale for all it's worth.
The alternative is that they become the Wolves.
Tired? that's a cop out.
They were off an entire week.
True, Tim is still winded and he's tired. You can see he's probably dehydrated but they make big personal doctor money so they can suck it up. They got to the second round easily because other players on other teams were suffering as well.
there ain't never any easy path in the west imho. hope this game turns out to be a wake-up call to them spurs and a kick up the arse. they can't beat warriors playing blithely like they did in the first two games and they were really lucky to win game 1 tbh. they coasted through the lakers and they're severely lacking in match fitness now after a week w/o no matches, it takes time for them to get back in form imho.
If you ever were a top of the line athlete in tip top shape you'd know it only takes a few days to get out of shape in reference to compe ion shape.
Also, stomach virus tells me that Tim shat himself a couple nights ago and that he was probably dehydrated.
Pop is forcing it big but they do better small against this team. Pop is going to go with Tim regardless, win or lose, because that's more important to Pop than getting to the next round.
its like when you come back to school from summer vacation you often struggle in sport classes, because you're severely lacking in fitness imho.
