- Team will be playing with fire and a lot of redemption in mind from tip-off
- Kawhi Leonard's emergence
- Timmy looking like he's in his 20 again
This team will contend next year.
I am 85% sure we're going to the finals again.
I'm ready for a rematch.
Honestly, this is the first time that I am not upset the season is over. I am devastated that we lost but I can't handle the stress right now. I've actually been questioning if its worth it to be a HARDCORE fan of a team. So far the cons outweigh the pros. Not looking forward to watching 82 regular season games again, an amazing playoff run, only to have a championship ripped from their hands.
Kind of feel the same way tbh. I feel gassed emotionally after this season. I mean, this is literally the most success we could have possibly had and NOT win the championship. I emotionally invested so much into this damn season because I knew this Spurs era will reach its twilight sometime soon unfortunately.
Even though I say this, chances are that I'll still spend more time than I actually should keeping up with Spurs BB, which will still be worth it. I love this damn team.
I think most fans (especially on this board) thought this way for a while after that game 6 loss. I know I did.
Only thing that worries me is injuries.
Kawhi's emergence is what I'm most excited about. That little turn around hook shot in the paint looked quite good against Miami. I remember seeing him practice that shot in various shootaround/practice videos throughout the season, so it was cool to see him implement it in a real game with such great success.
I was so proud of his effort overall throughout the playoffs (and especially the finals). Guy played his heart out.
If he can work on his jumpshot this offseason and maybe even improve his 3-pt shooting I have no doubts that this guy is going to be an absolute monster for at least a decade.
And he had tendonitis in his knee. Cant wait to see him healthy next season!
+1.
I thought I was the only one thinking that, but last night I thought "maybe I should go back to casually watching the Spurs, from all star break til onward." this past year was interesting and sometimes fun following so closely, posting on here. But last night was shattering. i wonder if people like Duncan are wondering if its worth it. I don't know, shooting yourself in the face like that, it hurts and makes you question things I guess.
Enjoy every last second Duncan is on the floor. Once he retires You will regret not watching the big fundamental
this is true. the only things making me want to watch right now are Duncan and Kawhi. lol, i guess that's why it's a player's league. certainly not last series coaching. I plan on going to a game or two next season, so I try to appreciate Duncan while I can.
If they make the right moves and adjustments, they'll have a legit shot at #5 next year. Numerous unknowns right now, but I'm feeling optimistic (especially compared to previous years. And 24 hours ago).
Looking forward to the off-season.
Me too! The best thing is we only have to wait 4 months to start the comeback.
Believe.
Tap the brakes, friend.
I am a huge Spurs fan but I agree with you fully there. Tap the brakes, no guarantees and 85% sure? Naw man not yet. I give them a decent % but sure as not 85%.
Tap the brakes, friend.
What's your bro Mark Cuban got up his sleeves this offseason?
Tap the brakes, friend.
I can't wait til next season. I hope Kawhi has a huge year and Duncan is still super motivated.
im questioning if we should keep tmac to act as a mentor for kawhi.
If only tmac could still hit his jumpers
that doesn't mean he doesn't have the knowledge and experience.If only tmac could still hit his jumpers
I'm hoping TD will still be able to keep up his incredible form for at least another season.
that the biggest question mark and what cause me fidgetiness thinking about next season, does Tim left in him what it takes to keep for another year being first wheel high quality player and trying to get redemption for the heartbraking of the finals.
I just don't want Tiago/Manu/Neal back. Tiago is ineffective against MIA, I don't think he made much of an impact against OKC either (aside of like one RS game), he was great against Memphis, and that's pretty much it. The Spurs need to tailor their team to beat OKC/MIA, not Memphis. Shed the dead weight and find somebody that works against those teams.
If either Manu/Neal return they'll just hurt the team once again and take shots away from Leonard who needs to be given the green light, given much more responsibility on offense.
If they stay healthy and reload the roster and Kawhi Green and Joseph improve I see no one better in the West at this point.
People not wanting Manu back are just nutso.
