8 seed

[r0drig0lac]

I'd have us at 50-50 odds against the Nuggets,i'd give the slight edge by 60-40 to Rockets and Thunder (but definitely beatable,6 or 7 games series) and i'd have us 70-30 favs against the Blazers (LMA would eat his former team's frontline alive and play with a chip on his shoulder-i have the outmost confidence in White defending Lillard)

Those are predictions with current rosters of course and without possible injuries for each team.

agree

I don’t see much difference between the non-Warriors choices.
just avoid the warriors at all costs. Anyone else is manageable

I think Houston had its shot last year. Even with Harden on a historical run, they're no better than the Spurs. And that Paul contact is only going to get worse every year.

Spurs, if healthy and DeMar gets back to his early season play, have a legitimate shot against anyone other than the Warriors.

I agree..I think Denver is the best of the bunch, but it's not like they're anything special..Houston might be the team to avoid, though..

Spurs would probably struggle on the road regardless, unfortunately..

Warriors should run through the West, despite the mileage..their 4 worst matchups are all in the East IMO..

With their awful offensive system of going one on one 90% of their possessions I don't fear the Rockets that much. It all depends on Harden having a monster series and, since we're talking playoffs, I like the chances of Harden not being all that great.

Better pray harden burns out cause even with injuries to paul n capela he kept them in 4 seed ahead of healthy spurs. They a 1on1 team but dang good at it. Denver's kept top seed most of season while never being healthy. They still have a former all star on bench who could be back this month plus their top draft pick....

Rockets are 6th behind the Spurs, tbh.

[ace3g]

Let's go Boston, a OKC loss would make them 33-19; help Spurs (32-22) get closer to that 3rd seed.

[LCM]

Pop hasn't really pulled the "rest the stars" yet. That Golden State game is looking ripe for it being the first night of the B2B with Portland. Beating Sacramento is looking vital at the start of the RRT.

[DAF86]

Westbrook westbrooking to ensure OKC loses the game.

[RD2191]

Westbrook what a dumb

[ismael-robert]

Spurs only 5th seed due to playing more games. I base seeding on loss count n they're tied. So if Houston had two more wins they'd be ahead cause of tie breaker...requires a lil thinking...arent you Air Force?

[ace3g]

[skin27]

It looks like wet gonna end up as 6th seed

[timtonymanu]

Spurs are screwed if Derrick White is out for longer than expected. They could fall to the 8th seed these next few games and I can see them miss the playoffs if he’s out for the season

[Mikeanaro]

Every time another contender loses 2 or 3 games, Spurs double the bet losing 6 or 7 games its never enough.

[LCM]

This team better beat Memphis, Knicks, and Nets. After getting beat by Yogi and his Bo Bo, Marvin Bagley, tonight they don't have a damn choice if they want their games after this stinking road trip to mean anything.

[Ditty]

We are going to be the 9th seed, and barely missing the playoffs.

yes, next season cant happen soon enough. White + Walker + Murray combo

[hater]

A walking china doll, an emo scrub whos knee exploded and a bad haircut chucker

Yeah cant wait for that

The sheer emotional rollercoaster ride you snowflakes go on each game is hilarious. Win a game talk about playoff paths and beating GSW. Lose a game and wanting to tank. You act like no one else loses and so much superior to the Spurs. This is not the last 15 years where Sacramento stunk and the Spurs could have their way. Be happy your not the Suns, currently in the playoff race and relevant.

Pure entertainment this place is....

So gtfo then? If someone is poking your ass and it bothers you, do you keep going back to get your ass poked?

[RD2191]

I think we all need to drastically lower our expectations for this team. The Spurs are a mediocre team with a good shot at the playoffs and possibly a few wins in the first round. Nothing more than that.

Are you not entertained?!?!?!

I have to give props to the GOAT coach Greg P. for having this team in the playoffs of the WC with only one consistent defender(White) and even he has injury issues from time to time, and zero all stars. LMA is not a all star this season, he is atrocious defensively, can't protect the rim, just stands and watches people have lay up after lay up. LMA has regressed in every advanced stat. Derozan is more concerned about his depression than bball.
At the same time as big a Pop fan as i am even i think he should retire and we hit the tank road for at least 2 seasons. I would only keep White, Murray, Davis B and thats about it.
