absolutely lost ALL games against elite teams or near it this season, and in most games running 48 minutes behind the marker and you think this is just normal, and looks at the record as if we had a case against these teams this year how about looking at the record against top teams? I'd say it's 0-xLol we lost game seven in the finals before, and we lose a regular season game in December and y'all are acting like it's the end of the world
lol didn't Miami need luck to win game six? Sometimes it takes luck to win a championship if you knew anything.
I agree with you but the Spurs clearly have problems right now. Parker/Green/Leonard have all regressed. The Spurs still don't have that 3 and D type of player they desperately need and they are struggling against teams they will most likely face in the playoffs. The only encouraging things have been the play of Manu/Marco/Diaw/Patty.Lol we lost game seven in the finals before, and we lose a regular season game in December and y'all are acting like it's the end of the world
Luck only plays a very small role in a 7-game series
This is just a bad take. Harden made the Thunder a top-tier team. They're still good now, but given what Harden just did to the Spurs a few minutes ago, how can you argue that Harden would make OKC worse? , they might've been better than the Heat at this point given Wade's decline.
improved a little, the other teams have improved a lot, simple as that.
it would be nice if sa could beat atleast one good team
Without Thibodeau, Doc Rivers couldn't figure out how to use the best defensive team in the league to defeat the most predictable player in the league in the finals.
They're still a top tier team now, what are you talking about?
Harden needed to be on his own team anyway, he wouldn't have been the star he is now if he was still a bench player for OKC.
I think the z just haven't been able to get over the Finals debacle. Evident as the first few weeks of this season. It's almost as if they're still grieving and , and their mind just isn't totally there. But it's still a long season and I'm hopeful that (barring significant injuries) they'll get out of that funk and return to the promise land.
you mean pau gasol?
Except they were still together in 2010.
Come on man if you wanna debate at least know what you're talking about.
Tim gave it his all, basically won us the championship last season until his teammates the bed and screwed it all up for him.
So this is how Parker follows it up? Playing like a ball against almost every good team this season. Thanks a lot Tony, you've really come through for Tim Duncan.

seems like the spurs are just waiting for the play offs......
Wow. What a take. With Harden, OKC would be in the Finals every season. We would be seeing some epic OKC/Miami Finals series if Harden stuck around and most likely win a championship with the decline of LeBron/Wade. Instead, they'll just keep losing in the Finals at best and KD/Russ will bolt from that small market.
No matter how anyone slices it, this was an embarrassing loss. It's early in the season yes but no self respecting elite team should be 0-7 vs other elite teams at this point in the season and how can we expect to have home court in the playoffs if we keep doing this? The rockets looked so much faster, while we could barely keep up with them while working hard for shots. They looked flat out superior to us in every facet of the game
Durant-Westbrook-Harden is better than Durant-Westbrook, period. Not sure how it's even possible to argue this point. It's beyond debate. Harden is a great player. Durant is a great player. Westbrook is a decent player. They had great chemistry. All three are better now than they were 3 years ago. Given 2 extra years of chemistry development, they could very well have been the best team in the league.
This season is in Pop's hands. Will he continue to be stubborn, or will he shake things up a little bit? He isn't known to shake things up, maybe this is the year....now more than ever, time actually is running out with our core.
The Spurs ruined Christmas. Thanks you gahz
What are you on about? I'm pretty sure the Celtics never made the finals after Thibodeau left?
Hate to see a rockets vs spurs playoff series. Rockets OWN the spurs. Spurs looking tired tiago looks horrible every good team has figured out tonys game. They need new blood.
just trying to stay healthy at this point. gonna be lightyears better by RRT > March > April
