Personally, I think whoever Pop plays will be trying extremely hard on Sunday. The question is how bad Pop will want it and how long he sticks with the starters if they play at all.
I'm sure we've all heard our team's mantra we don't "care" and I don't think it's a big deal to them. Still I don't see us forfeiting the games- we've always played hard at home. GSW has been plenty vocal about how much it means to them and I hope they wear themselves out. Just wonder if we will be playing possum a bit and simply sizing them up. Game 41 might be even more interesting, as we are looking to see OKC soon after.

It'd be nice to see the Spurs take something seriously just to see if they can. At least Pop hasn't given them excuses to lose against the Warriors this year.
I think so as well and think it will go unspoken.
Yes indeed. I think 39-0 is amazing in itself and speaks volumes about this team.

If you put any regular season wins above winning it all....yeah. They are not mutually exclusive though and I go to a lot of games....winning is always better than losing. The rest of the season will only have as much meaning for the playoffs as in how it makes us better.
Well one of those records is toast tomorrow. GSW is going for it...will be interesting if we do.

If the Grizzlies win tonight, pretty much guarantees the Dublets rest tomorrow. Go Grizzlies
Dublets have hard on for the Spurs..we've become cupcake matchup for them..scrub teams like Memphis/Wolves scoring in bunches while we seem to struggle offensively![]()
Go Grizz!!
OKC game will be battle between second units tbh, so Spurs should have that one
I would LOVE to see Pop sit his starters at home. That would send the biggest " you" to the league, the media, Jordan, everyone. If they all play they'll just be risking getting someone injured to do what exactly? Prevent the RS record or go perfect at home? Big ing deal. I'll take the 40 -1.
i hope the spurs win tomorrow vs the warriors for obvious reasons but lose vs OKC so media doesnt talk about that every playoff game in SA
^ This whoever plays will want to win, but what Pop's plan is will not necessarily reveal anything we haven't seen already.
Personally, I just want guys to stay healthy and get their rhythm.
Should we beat the Warriors, I could see Pop throwing the last home game to 2nd stringers( Kyle/Boba..co) and put pressure on them to bring 41-0..OKC will likely be resting their stars in the last game..
Give Golden State the 73 wins, they would then be under immense pressure to win the finals. 41-0 is a cool record but who really cares? no one talks about best home records, heck I had to look up who had the best home record and it was apparently the 85-86 Celtics, no one cares.
I don't think Pop will say a word about how to approach the game. i think our team is going to punch them in the face.
I was thinking that too until I realized Diaw wasn't playing. Gonna be tough without him but I think our guys are as tired of their bull as everyone else. We owe them.
Didn't know Bobo was still out. All the more good reason to knock'em out.
Yes I can see that too. He's letting them close out games that are still on the line and keeps finding ways to put them in simulated pressure situations to push them.
Anderson is going to have to score on Bogut and Green in the post... ugh.
Yeah it's a funny thing what a difference Boris makes against this team. Just hope he won't be out long. Haven't really read anything about his condition yet and I'm sure they aren't saying much. Ugh is right!
It appears I'm in the minority when I say I want that 41-0 home record.
I especially don't want GS to be the team to spoil it.
