    The main reason I asked is cause I remember last year Pop saying that he hates winning streaks, especially in the playoffs. Obv he won't throw a game, but the question was if you guys would rather sweep.
    Five actually isn't much of a streak.

    Absolutely, yes. Imo, it will erase any talking from the flukey series win the Grizz got in 2011.

    Sweeping now imo proves that they only won because our team was hurt (Duncan, Parker, and Manu were all hurt). Now an even older Duncan is destroying prime ZBo, Parker is taking a hot on them even though Conley is allegedly the best defensive PG in the league thi syear, and severely declined Manu out hustled them all night.

    On a strategic note, it'd give the Spurs ample time to prepare for the winning team. yeah they may be rusty for game 1, but who cares? Huge strategic edge, and 100% rest and health.

    Yeaaa you right. No offense taken. In hindsight that does sound kinda pussy-ish. Let's bust out the brooms on em.

    We want a sweep. A lot of nagging injuries could recover with a long rest. Plus, you don't want to give the Grizzlies even a glimmer of hope. They've overcome a 2-0 deficit in these playoffs already, it is not out of the realm of possibility that they could overcome a 3-0 deficit as well. We all know it is not impossible for this team to lose 4 games in a row. The Spurs take care of business when up 3-0, though. They've won game 4 in that situation 7 times out of 10, and have never been pushed past game 5.

    Yes, Spurs should obviously try to win game 4. Grizzlies are too good of a team to gift them one game.

    Now, Pop shouldn't play too much Tony and Tim in that game to have them ready for a potential game 5.

    well if the Spurs end of facing Miami in the finals then it will be ok. Spurs should be expected to lose the first game against them. Giving them plenty of time to recover. Should we face the Pacers, then it might be different story.

    I say the Spurs tank the next 3 then try to win game 7. This would keep them in game shape and would prevent any sort of rust in game 1 of the finals.

    Yes, I want the sweep. Every game played means a chance of injury. No team has ever come back from a 0-3 deficit in the Conference Finals, but I certainly don't want the Grizzlies to be the first because of some injury. Don't let them hang around, kill them quickly!

    But on the other hand, I'm expecting for the Spurs to lose game 4 and win it here in San Antonio.

    Not sure if Memphis has the guts to come out and win a Game 4 when they're down 3-0.

    You want Pop to rest the starters next game? Build the Grizzlies confidence?

    Answer is obvious. This old team needs rest in every way possible. Just don't want to get overconfident that we could beat them the next game.

    Yes, you go for the sweep, but I won't be angry if the Grizz win Game 4, tbh.

    if spurs get down big you let the scrubs get them back then bring the big three back
    otherwise you go for the win at the bigging
    role players will play better in a game 5 at home
