Spurs vs. Warriors 1st Round..

[sasaint]

This was the worst matchup the Spurs could get. I was hoping the Spurs would get anybody besides the Rockets or Warriors. Spurs would have had a chance against Blazers,Jazz,Pelicans,Thunder,Wolves. Any series with the teams I listed would have been compe ive and entertaining. Last year's series vs the Warriors was the most boring playoff series I have seen the Spurs take part in the last 20 some years. Unfortunately the sequel looks to be even more of a snooze fest.

Missed the first game because my power went out right before tipoff. Probably should’ve went to a bar, but doesn’t look like I missed much. I was thinking Spurs were playing with house money, but Pop looks like he’s ready to travel Europe and get drunk, plus the Ws are stacked even without Twinkball.

This was the best matchup possible - if we don't incur any injuries. Just play four games, go home and do what you have to do to shore up the organization.

Definitely. It's tough bc the Spurs don't have guards to set Aldridge up well. I'd start White, see what he has.

I am leery of throwing White to the wolves... er, dubs. Pop needed to prepare White for the playoffs with regular playing time in the regular season. Without that experience, throwing him in against a great team playing with playoff intensity is pretty unfair to White.

Starting White would be a good thing. Or Manu, get some fire in the starting lineup and use White off the bench in the Manu role. White may not be completely 'ready' but the other scrubs on the team aren't doing anything.

What did White do while in? Finish strong in a transition opportunity without screwing it up. Set up a score off a pick and roll. Pull up for a three. Block a shot.

Basically he showed an all around game that no one else except 50 year old Manu could do.

I just don't White to become another Beno. I am more interested in his future than this Spurs team's present. Without Kawhi, this team was never more than an also-ran.

I could see Pop starting Manu if the Spurs go down 0-2, not because he thinks Manu would change things that drastically but because he knows its the end of the line and he wants to give Manu another chance to shine

The ‘ol put Manu in the starting lineup in 2018.

Sure it might work for a spark but for God’s sake, how much longer is this going to be go to move. Manu is 40 yo.

Murray and anderson on bench spurs will win need more forbes white bertans

[dbestpro]

Anderson's lack of athleticism and 3 point shot, makes him a liability in today's NBA. He really needs to change his mentality, and work non-stop on the three to have a decent career.

If that's what you want then it is a great match up but that's not what I wanted. I wanted a compe ive series win or lose and the spurs were never going to get that matching up with the Warriors.

Gentlemen,

It has been a tremendous ride. The Spurs of Five Rings shall always be my most favorite team.

However, its time to move on. These playoffs I am picking a new team. I want a Spurs like team, built from scratch.

May this new romance bloom. And may they someday compete for the ultimate prize.

Go SIXERS go!!!

Will always follow the Spurs but if Mills is back next year I am going to have to split my attention. Not sure yet who.
