Easiest bracket and opponents, tbh

The Spurs are so bad on the road I find it amusing how most people here think they will beat Denver. Yeah, they got lucky how the seeding turned out, but the propability is still quite slim. They will produce one stinker at home where the threes do not fall, so how will they win two of four road games?

They were bad on the road in regular season but I expect Spurs-playoffs can be a different animal

usually but if we reach the 2nd round, we'd be playing an injured Blazers team or an OKC team we match up well with.
Crazy thought. The first round may be more difficult than the 2nd round.

It is what it is..lower seeds always lose in the 2nd round after upseting 1/2 seeds.its very rare for 8/7 seeds to reach the conference finals..

example: 2010 spurs = after beating the 2nd seed Mavs they just got swept by the suns whom they dominated 3 times before(2005, 2007 and 2008)..


for sure a lot of spurs fans expect spurs to beat the suns that year..lol

I have very little faith in this version of the Spurs. The only thing consistent about them is their inconsistency. IF they decide to play defense like they give a f*ck, they can beat or at least hang with anyone. Nothing surprises me with them. Things are aligned nicely for them to reach the WCF if they play up to their potential. If Houston somehow reaches the WCF, I would actually give the Spurs a chance in that series. Or....they could get swept in the first round.

Bumping this to both own it and have a good laugh after a disheartening loss, tbh...

The only thing I’ll double down on is that it was a choke...

The Suns series in 2010 was lost when Pop decided to go with G. Hill as the starter instead of TP.

Looks like everything aligned for the Spurs to reach the WCF, tbh... Denver is probably happy they made the playoffs, and the whole al ude thing might work out for a game or two, but eventually evens out.

OKC and Portland are probably going long in their series, with the guests being perennial chokers and hopefully westbrook running on fumes by the time we get to face them.

Anything but the Conference finals feels like a choke, IMO.















What? Tim and Manu retired? Oh .

Been very low-key all around, pretty casual these days. I Surprised myself getting angry this series and frustrated 4 how casual I had been this season.

Denver just beat Portland controlling the entire game..Blazers big rotation is a joke now.

Leave to it to the current bunch of losers in silver and black to blow their best opportunity to reach the West Finals in foreseeable future.

Every year - spur fan looks past opponent to the "next" round...

here spur fan is already looking to the WCF -

we never learn

[Amuseddaysleeper]

We would’ve lost to the Blazers as well, don’t fool yourselves

If we couldn’t contain Murray then Lillard would average 60

Our offense and defense were crap
