Unless you think the 05 Spurs were better than this years team, i dont see your point
We'll see how good Kiwi is AD (After Duncan). 5 years $80M?

Right, but your hypothesis is who has the brighter future right now.
Right now, the ultra-proud ultra-rich Lakeshow is paying a dude $48 million over the next two years and he might not even be effective. Outside of the #7 pick, what exactly is *bright* for the Lakers right now?
Nothing. ing nothing. Now, your front office might work some magic and turn your fool's gold into something more substantial, but as of now you are looking down a looooooooong line of getting your ass handed to you by the Spurs.
And god help you and Kobe if we rang next year. It won't even matter. You might as well move to Oakland.
Longterm sounds exactly like right now.![]()
I'm hearing about contracts from Team 48.5?![]()
I know long-term the Spurs have their picks while Chaz gets to sit the 2015 and 2017 drafts out tbh.
LkrFan, just go home and call it a day.
Prime Tony + Prime Duncan + Prime Manu was very possibly the best combo in NBA history. Holy , did you even watch them play? Duncan walked us through Game 7 on one ing leg. That team was absolutely monstrous on both sides of the ball. Brent Barry. Bruce Bowen. Robert ing Horry.
We ran the Suns off the court just a round prior when everyone thought that Nash was going to coast to a le that year, then slowed down to a crawl and ground out wins in the Finals vs. Detroit. Loaded. ing loaded team.
04 Spurs yes. 08 spurs no, they got taken to 7 by choke paul.
2014 spurs would smash both though tbh.
He parlayed 3 games into $80M. Hope it wasn't a fluke, for your sake. If it was a flash in the pan the Spurs = fcked
Goddamn, Pablo's tears are frying out his keyboard![]()
if they find a way to destroy the current CBA and resurrect Dr. Buss, then the Lakers.
You'd pay the pied piper tomorrow and twice on Tuesday to get Kawhi and be singing praises about your front office for playing chess all the while.
Ok son, who do you see in your future that's worth getting excited about? You Marcus Smart or Julius Randle is going to lead you back to the promised land? Do you have some sort of crystal ball for prospects over there? More lottery picks to stock up on rookies? Kobe ain't gonna do the tank, son, it won't sit well with him and he'll demand trades. You'd trade ANYONE on your team not named Kobe for Leonard right ing now, including your #7 and Swaggy P.
Pablito ese, Leonard took the Spurs on a 19 game win-streak and stole Westbrook's game-winner.
Stupid phone ing my up tbh![]()
I think the they are pretty equal, this years team generates a lot of offense tho, and we obviously dont have a time machine to match them up with each other, but i think the offense wouldve been too much too handle (Tony wasnt prime in 05 either, and Kawhi would be a matchup advantage) Also, I think the three ball wouldve been an x factor, probably a 7 game series, with homecourt deciding it![]()
The lottery picks are going to Phoenix and Orlando.![]()
The Lakers always bounce back. History showed us that. Prior to 97 and after 2014 is tbd for your Spurs.
Next 10 years?
Spurs, without a doubt.
Jerry West isn't walking through that door. Jerry Buss isn't walking through that door. The old CBA isn't walking through that door.
Best case scenario for the Lakers is to tank 5 straight years and load up on draft picks. Applying the marquee free agent fix-it-quick strategy doesn't work as well as it once did under the new CBA.
Well, the Spurs played the Suns in the WCF and averaged close to 110 points for that series. I think it's safe to say they could turn the offense on, they just typically slowed the game down because no one could score on our half court D.
I guess you're too young to remember the 90s. Your team got the HIVVY and bowed out ungracefully.![]()
But that Suns team does not have a defense even remotely comparable to what we had this year, they were a 7 seconds or less offense, not a passing machine, not comparable imo
Not sweating the CBA tbh. It's the LDS owners that are blocking.![]()
I remember them well. We had many teams that were athletic as but couldn't get it done until PJ showed up. 1997 team was more athletic than 2010-2014 Heatles tbh - for example.
