    Hanging out for this, need to sort out getting to watch 2 games in 3 nights in SA at some point in December. Hurry the up.
    What games are you going to see? I'm thinking seeing a few of the home stand early March.

    But enough about the Dallas Cowboys . . .

    I'm hoping to make it to a few games this season. I haven't been to a game in a few years.

    It's looking like at the moment I will get to see @Utah on December 9, home against Knicks Dec 10 and home against Lkers Dec 12.

    3 games in 4 nights should ensure I don't get burnt by some of Pop's resting policies.

    Sixth most games on national TV for the champs. Seems about right. I'm surprised we aren't after the Wizards.

    My first observations:

    -21 b2bs, only 17 times they play a team which is on the second night of a b2b, clearly a negative here
    - the first two months look brutal to me ... 32 games from November 5th to December 31st... 11 b2bs packed in it and 4 times the Spurs have to play 5 games in 7 nights (without Patty I see Parker playing more and CJ needs to step up as well)
    - the last four weeks look tough as well, but there are not many b2bs and the Spurs will have a nice chance to go into playoff mode against good teams

    I can see the Spurs only starting 20-10, but after that comes a stretch with many easy teams to beat leading to a possible 40-13 record before the All-Star break. All in all 62 wins are possible if Joseph plays well, Pattys return is smooth and we do not sustain a cluster of injuries like last season.

    I think we might fare better than you anticipate in the early going.


    Our Core should have plenty of rest, from not participating in international ball this summer.

    And of course we've already proven our depth.


    At the same time we've retained mostly the same team, whereas 80% of the league will be scrambling getting accustomed to new players, coaches, systems etc...

    We're Captain Morgan going into the season, we have a leg up on the compe ion.

    Don't forget West Coast teams are thrown some extra TNT / ESPN late games, while Central time zone teams have to compete with East unless they want late 9:30pm starts during the week. While I like what Phoenix has done, they wouldn't have as many games as Brooklyn-Toronto-Charlotte combined if they weren't out West (understood they are in Mountain time zone in the winter).
