Stupid poll, per par.
Yep. Big 3 pretty much have an expiration date after next year
Not necessarily. Our new gen players are building to be something big
idk really

^ still have this blocked and he continue to respond
manu i wet dream about him every night
I gotta agree with Skull on this one. It is stupid, only because..... Aren't the spurs always championship or bust? But I am in no way attacking you or the poll.^ still have this blocked and he continue to respond
idk what his comment said. but kudos.. got me on that one lolI gotta agree with Skull on this one. It is stupid, only because..... Aren't the spurs always championship or bust? But I am in no way attacking you or the poll.
its been 10 games.......
Not with Popovich coaching like a tired old man, running the same old plays that everyone knows like the back of their hand. Where did his ingenuity go? I think he quit. Lucky for us the players ignored him in the fourth last night and pulled one out.
Spurs have been championship or bust for over a decade.
How long you been a Spurs fan OP? Every year since 99 has been championship or bust.
The Spurs maintaining that belief throughout their fan base is what has made them the best franchise in all of pro sports.
Tbh 98 was a championship or bust year as well. We were great with DRob and crew
Stupid poll per par, that's what he said
I don't know. What do you mean "or bust"? You need to give the other side of the coin if you want anyone to agree or disagree.
All I know is I was satisfied with the fact that Boris took some shots in the last game, hit or miss, that Marco is moving the ball and looks good out there and that we are playing defense. If that can continue, we'll be ok. I don't care about anything else right now, too early.
You have continued to lie about ignoring me despite referencing everything I write directly. Now that you got called out you say, "I don't know what he wrote."
What makes you think I am responding for your benefit any way? You're not smart enough to get it. You think too highly of yourself, per par.
You protest too much, liar.

He knows what I said. Don't let him fool you.
It's been championship or busy since Duncan was drafted. Were too good a team to think "well we made the conference finals so that was a great season." While I did enjoy the ride last year, Nobody was content with going 7 games into the finals
To say that it's championship or bust just because Duncan is still here is naive. He defied odds last year but he's working on borrowed time. Winning one more would be amazing...and they have a good shot at getting back to the finals with the current state of the West...but let's face it, it's more likely we see Duncan fall off a cliff and the era end as we are seeing him do what he did last year. None of you seem to grasp just how unprecedented what Duncan did last year is. Him repeating it at his age would be not only be remarkable, it would be borderline miraculous. His offensive and defensive impact at 36/37 years is something no other big man has ever done. Look up the per 36 numbers if you don't believe me.
Stop acting like this 2007. Should the Spurs make the WCF? Absolutely. Should they win and go back to the Finals? There is a very good chance. Can they beat a healthy Miami team? I'd give them about a 35-40% chance(that's being pretty generous tbh)...and depending on if Indiana continues to look dominant I'd give them a 50/50 shot against them. Saying championship or bust suggests they are favorites and if you truly believe they are then you are a blind homer.
I have long said Tim will get worse not better due to age. The entire team save Leonard for that matter.
In a sense, yes, but it's even more so this year because of the team trajectory over the past few years. It has been building up for a while, and now the final step is to win the championship.
after last year absolutely. Simply for the protection on the spurs big 3 legacy. If they don't win a championship soon, people will overlook the 4 les and simply point out 2013. Sad but people are just assholes. If we win another then it can somewhat negate 2013. It will still be in history but at least people will not ignore the 5 les (if we win). Plus if we win it against the heat (im rooting for them to go back to the finals to get revenge) it will definately make up for 2013. It's risky though cause if we go back to the finals and lose against the heat again we would probably be to the heat to what the jazz were to the bulls in the 90s. But it's a risk I'm willing to take.
...come on now. No one is going to overlook four les. The Spurs choking will always be a blemish on the record...like they choked against Dallas...but it in no way tarnishes the legacy the Spurs have built in the Duncan era.
I agree with most of this, but I disagree with your definition of championship or bust, tbh..IMO, it doesn't mean that the Spurs should be favoured, it just means they're built to win a le, which has been the case since the first championship, tbh..
Especially after last year, where 1 Pop decision literally took a le away from the Spurs, of course it's championship or bust this year, what else is there?
It also helps that the league is weaker than it has been in a long time, and the West is at it's weakest point since the 90s..
also, you must have such an extraordinary outside life considering you seem to be following me around and put so much effort to attack my posts when i hardly acknowledge you
grats tho
If we are being honest though, they weren't always built to win a le in the Duncan era. There have been various issues in several of the years that they didn't win that were glaring and not addressed...especially between '07 and now.
I've always seen the championship or bust mentality...especially among Spurs fans...is one of en lement. A feeling that they deserve to win the le more than another team simply because they are the Spurs and they have Tim Duncan. I can agree with you that this team is built to win a championship, but they are not the favorites. If I say championship or bust, I'm lining up more with the latter than the former.
I will meet in the middle with this...if healthy, the Spurs not getting back to the Finals would be a huge disappointment.
