NBA: San Antonio Spurs (#1) vs Portland Trail Blazers (#5) Playoff Series Thread

[HI-FI]

I know we made Portland look like rooks, but you can't be that bad if you win 54 games...

Watching the haters coming out of the woodwork is cute tho

yeah, I logged on after game 3 and it was eerily quiet, especially after a huge win. It seems every time the Spurs lose this place is more active, probably because this forum is 50% troll.

It was a respectable loss. barely a double digit win. Portland's one and only win.

[TDMVPDPOY]

spurs will be the first team in history to be up 3-0 for the backdoor sweep

We tanked the game last night on purpose imho. We don't want our hands cooled down because we can't afford another warm-up round (like the series against the Mavs). Game 5 is gonna help us stay fit so we'll be better prepared for the WCF, and also better rested assuming the OKC-Monkeyball series goes 7 games most likely.

Spot on other than the tanking part. Would have been almost a week off. Too much.

Rogue Frank with the goods per the par.

Spurs played their worse since early Mavs series and they still could have won last night.

Any of you worried that the NBA might flip switch and try to get this back to Portland?

After last night anything is possible.

If anything it makes me think the NBA will avoid any controversy tonight.

[Baam]

The Spurs can't afford to have the tosb Turnobili travel back to Portland... He looks almost done right now, he needs all the rest he can get...

[Strange Love]

Spurs got this.

Manu is not bothering me right now. He's going to worry me going forward though. When these guys inevitably play the Thunder, he better be on his game. Thunder will run a train on you if you turn it over and over again.
