TrueHoop TV: The Spurs are not a top 5 team in the NBA

[tatteredprince]

its better this way guys

the under-the-radar-philosophy of the Spurs, hmmmm

Go Spurs go!!!!

[jiggy_55]

N/M. Now that I see the full name, it's relatively obvious.

Does religion matter in the sports world? Or in journalism/reporting for sports? This is completely irrelevant

I thought strauss was a spurs rider tbh.

No. NEVER. He hated all the spurs championship runs while the Warriors were drowning in mediocrity tanking all those years under bad ownership. He said last year that the spurs 2014 championship win was all because of luck. It's on one of their end of the year True Hoop podcasts.

Depth, Continuity, Defense.. hmm..

Depth: 14-15: Ginobili, Diaw, Mills, Joseph, Baynes, Belinelli, Bonner, Ayres, Anderson, Williams.

Depth: 15-16: Ginobili, Diaw, West, Mills, Bonner, Anderson, Simmons, McCallum, Fredette, Marjanovic.

On Sum: No big change.

Continuity:

14-15 Playoff lineup: Parker, Green, Leonard, Duncan, Splitter, Ginobili, Diaw, Mills, Baynes, Belinelli

15-16 Playoff lineup (projected): Parker, Green, Leonard, Duncan, Aldridge, Ginobili, Diaw, Mills, West, Anderson.

No. of players retained: 7/10. Improvements: Aldridge over Splitter; West over Baynes; Belinelli <> Anderson. In other words, there is continuity and clear improvement.

Defense:

Yep, technically Splitter > Aldridge; but a hurt Splitter is clearly not as good as he would be and Aldridge makes up for that. West is a good defender too. The Spurs will have as good a defensive team as last year, but will be far better on offense.

In all aspects, the Spurs just got much better. Only a blind man will not notice that.

Strauss is scared of dem Spurs.

[Spurtacular]

It's not because he is a Muslim that he is a re or he doesn't like the Spurs, asshole.

Anyone that's Muslim is giving you the middle finger (and wants to give you more than that).

Said what I need to say in the post above. Gonna try to keep it basketball...

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

All Suns fans hate the Spurs, it's natural. Nothing to see here.

[Kidd K]

What a weird comment. Only sports journalists who love the Spurs can have careers?

You looked at what he said in the most re ed way possible.

Clearly he was referring to the fact you'd have to be dumb as not to think the Spurs are a top team, because they are. This has nothing to do with being a fan as opposed to having a brain and even barebones knowledge of the NBA.

Amin worked for the suns front office during the Nash era. He was there when we would rip their hearts out year after year after year. In one of his chats he said his best moment was when the suns swept the spurs in the playoffs and talked smack to a spurs fan about it in his chat. He always rags and puts down the spurs because of that.

Suns fans still bitter over 07 to this day, regardless of the other ass whippings we gave that team . When they beat that average 010 Spurs team they still didnt win it all tbh

Oh yeah because the most wins by 15 plus points and finals record by margin of victory is clearly just luck.. That guy sounds like a bitter kid talking sports tbh. Glad I dont follow them nor even know who they are. The Spurs win these clowns still hate.

Anyone? I try to avoid generalizations.

Stereotyping, prejudice intensify the escalation of hate and violence, nobody needs racism or religious hatred here.

Like you said before, keep it basketball.

Agreed.

Agreed.

To defend the ignorant and insulting and accusation that I'm merely "stereotyping," or "intesify(ing) the escalation of hate..." I'l note that my take is based upon the tenets / current state/ history of that murderous lifestyle that masquerades as a religion. Also, Islam is not a race, dude.

Now, we can keep it basketball though if you prefer.

You're so ignorant to discuss about religion appropriately so I agree with you, keep it basketball.

Pick up an f'ing Quran and read it. Read about all the calls for death to the infidels and then come back and call me ignorant, mofo.

[YGWHI]

You seem mad, just keep it basketball.

You can shove that statement up your ass. I am a proud Muslim, and it being mentioned to diss Amin Elhassan is pretty ing stupid and irrelevant. Even though I dislike the idiot and have even un-followed him on Twitter for his idiotic opinions, what his religion is of no matter to you or anyone else and obviously has no reflection on his sports opinion.

Proud of all the so-called kafir your people have killed, no doubt.

Easily the most ignorant statement I've read here. I'm done talking to you. Pathetic.
