Last game of the season. That loss blew it.
82
Honestly I think they would have lost next round or WCF anyways but I would still have loved to have seen them advance. This year was just odd and to end like this seems fitting to a overall up and down frustrating year. This year never seemed like they would win it all.
Well said. We were never totally dominant and we had many ups and downs throughout the year, so, I doubt we'd have made it past the next round. Would have been nice but maybe this will motivate them more to take next season more seriously.
Bull . The Rockets aren't in the Spurs or Clippers stratosphere. Spurstalk has an irrational fear of the Rockets.
Hope this loss gets Duncan fired up to run it back again. As much as I love Splitter when healthy, make Lamarcus happen and ship Splitter out to get the cash.
Long offseason for once might give people a chance to catch their breath.
And lastly, hats off to CP3. What a performance. Easily the best guard in the game today - sorry Steph and Harden.
My old friend, you may be right. But part of me thinks this was their toughest challenge.
82 killed us in any event.
This iyear was a mess. Like Mills' shooting. Perhaps he is the metaphor for this season. Or at least his shoulder.
I am really really really sad right now.
And Tim made his freethrows at the end. Irony, you cruel .
Perhaps they beat Houston but there is no way in they compete with Golden State playing this way.
I think it felt like they would there at the end of the season pre-Pelicans. But yeah, just a really inconsistent and unfocused season from the Spurs. The fire burned out tbh.
That ing loss to the Knicks really cost this team.
If we can't beat the Clippers then we sure as weren't beating the Warriors. The Pelicans game doesn't mean much IMO.
Maybe. But I am just not scared of the Warriors. Oh wait. We are eliminated. Oops. Sigh....
This team didn't deserve to advance past the 1st round IMO. Their hearts were't in it. The rest of the playoffs should be fun to watch since all the remaining teams are hungry.
Or WCF meaning the Warriors there man, relax. Maybe they pass the Rockets but without REST and needing three series in a row on the road? One team has done it and only one for a reason, and it took ALOT to do it.
Get some pieces here or there and you never know what they can do next year.
You will be alright man, I understand you are upset tonight but overall think of what this team has done after they were so called done in 011!!! I know round one being out sucks but they drew a TOUGH match up and did not get the bounce to go their way this time.
^^^^^^^^^
Well said. But this hurts.
And I guess vengeance is serious fuel. We demolished Miami last year. This year we are a shadow of that.
Sigh...
There is like 6 bad losses that killed this season.
82 cost the team at the death, but so did a lot of other losses well before 82. Knicks, Mavs, OT vs Cavaliers, etc. Now that the season is complete, you can look back at the whole thing from start to finish - the injuries, the stacked Western conference that seemed to be leagues ahead of the Spurs most of the season, the losses in games where victory was in hand - and none of it reads like a story of success. The Spurs basically had nothing this season but their pride and their compe iveness, which won them 55 games and gave us a of a series. But in the grand scheme of things, this team was never going to make a deep playoff run. A WCF berth would have been nice, four trips in a row? I'd have taken that. It was never going to happen, though. Too many injuries, too many healthier, more athletic teams.
Wouldn't mind if Davis pulled a Paul George in the offseason
No doubt. I think GS is going to steamroll
Wow. Wishing for catastrophic injuries. Classy
I see them as a paper tiger. I bet we could have beaten them.
Alas, we will never know.
I recall Swaggy P hitting a 30 footer at the buzzer.
I recall a turnover and Brandon Jennings hitting a runner at the buzzer.
I recall Marc Gasol hitting a running runaround three to send a game into overtime
I recall Anthony Davis hitting a game winner with a few seconds left.
I recall the Spurs ting the bed in Utah.......twice.
There are more but you get the picture. Inconsistent. The season in a nuts
Or Cleveland...or game 6 of THIS YEAR.
