The Official Meltdown Thread

[Kori Ellis]

People shouldn't expect the Spurs to win many games with Manu/Tony out. I don't know how you can get upset about these last two losses. I can understand getting frustrated with the injuries.

The guys played hard and hung in there, but they are missing ball handlers and penetrators... so don't expect miracles every night. Just pray/hope that Manu/Tony heal quickly and stay healthy.

Mavs started off 2-7 last year. Calm down, girlies.

[DPG21920]

How do you feel about the team's defense with those guys out Kori?

Agreed.

LOL, I couldn't care less if we were 6-4 or 4-6. I am getting tired of these injuries and just hope the Spurs have a fresh start. I don't care about the Mavs owning the Spurs for the next four years if meant the Spurs are going to be a good team for the next decade and a half after those 4.

I bet on those sorry mother ers and they cost me all my vBookie money.

[Findog]

That's something to look forward to, a Mavs season.

Well, they finished 48-25. Didn't the Lakers start out 11-17 during their last le of the Shaq/Kobe era? Seriously, what do you expect when you're missing Manu/Parker?

lol, I stayed away from this one. Can't bring myself to bet against the Spurs, but I could not bet on them.

I am lucky I did not bet on these 3 point chuckers. Man, I wish we had some of the Rocket players. Your team has a bright future.

[Taking it to the Hole]

I guess we know who the bandwagoners are according to this thread. Last time I checked, if your loyal to your team,you stick with them even when they are not playing their best and are hurting. Ahh, must be nice to be a fickle Spurs fan.

Tony and Manu being out is just making matters worse. Delaying any chance of developing some type of chemistry and cohesiveness. Spurs are having a hard time getting an iden y with all the musical chair events going on with the lineup. Seems like its going to be sometime before we find out what this teams potential is. Whats most disappointing is this team seemed to have the most potential on paper and yet is having the most issues and least amount of success of any of the contending teams we have had this era.

[The Franchise]

lol, I stayed away from this one. Can't bring myself to bet against the Spurs, but I could not bet on them.

It seemed like the only person who showed up was Timmy. With Manu and Tony out I expected more of an impact from Jefferson.

[gameFACE]

And the high point of our season:

I knew it!!! It's the ing Holloween Bat Curse.

[bigdave50]

Manu and tony playing for their countries have ed the spurs
RC needs to do something fast. Trades or something

we are slowing sinking

[TDMVPDPOY]

timinator see yah

[mexicanjunior]

Slowly? It is here...just check the standings...

[DesignatedT]

[TDomination]

if there is a god, than tony will play on Saturday, because if he doesn't then the spurs will struggle even against the wizards.

oberto is set to go off

[slayermin]

We need a point guard. Someone like Kirk Hinrich. We have too many shooting guards.

[Chomag]

It's early.

2/3 of the big three are absent.

You don't win les in November.

If this team can't find health and chemistry by January...then i'll have some issues.

Do you realy want our players to burn themselves out right before the playoffs fighting tooth and nail to get a playoff spot because they had to climb out of a huge whole they created at the beginning of the season?

These excuses are for bad teams not contenders.

[jag]

Excuses. Are you saying it is already January for the Nuggets, Lakers, Celtics, Mavs, Magic, Hawks, Cavs? Doesn't seem like it. I don't see the reason why the Mavs are playing so well while the Spurs play like a bunch of losers.

No, but there are certain dynamics with the Spurs that you can't apply in a general way to every other team you mentioned. The Spurs are dealing with early injuries, the Spurs are having difficulty incorporating RJ...etc. Call them excuses if you like, but these variables still exist.

These guys play like and none of them are playing like all-stars. If they are, we should be having a winning record.

I change my mind. I am willing to have Brandon Jennings on the Spurs even if it means losing Parker and taking back Dan Gadzuric.

Again, the Spurs aren't playing well, but it's still early. It would have been nice to see this team mesh from the get-go...but that's just not how it's worked out. They haven't even had much time to play as a complete unit...someone has always been out.

If they are ever going to build chemistry, then it appears it's going to take a little time. If they can't develop any chemistry then you should expect to see these same problems after the all-star break. That's just the way it is.

Considering it's still early, i'll reserve my meltdown for a later time, if ever.
