    Minimize the turnovers. Be more aggressive, which will result in more free throws. If I remember correctly, you wanted the Spurs to tank, so they could get in the lottery right Mex. Jr.?
    Absolutely...a little late for that now though. We could have drafted someone to help us make a legit run next year instead of sneaking in as a 7th seed and hoping for every other franchise player in the West to have injuries to give us a chance to advance.

    We were down 12 with 2 minutes to go in the game...losing by 6 after the dogs got called off is not very comforting but feel free to pacify yourself with it.

    You didn't answer any of my questions though...typical homerism BS at it's finest.
    Imagine finding Spur homers on a Spurs fan website. Go figure.

    Well, I think the Spurs still have the talent to win the series, but I don't see them winning it all this year. They don't have enough big men to match up with the Mavs or Lakers.

    Let me ask you this.
    What good does it do you to just write off your own team and root for them to lose?

    Why are you even a fan? yeah, I will continue to believe in the Spurs until they are officially eliminated. I am a Spurs fan, and I see no point in making yourself miserable in thinking that the Spurs have no shot..

    Just believe.

    Weren't these same "realists" saying that this team wouldn't make the playoffs? Weren't these realists saying we wouldn't win 50 games? You are not a realist, you are simply a "fan" rooting for your team to lose. Pathetic..

    Oh and..

    lol realist

    I stopped rooting for them to lose when they locked their playoff spot...

    I'm a fan that wants to see them legitimately compete for a le and this team as currently constructed is not doing it. The starting point to correct this would be the ability to draft someone that could contribute next year. If that means losing games now to have a chance next year, so be it.

    Sorry I can't just "believe" because homers on this board tell me to and threaten to tear up my Spurs "true fan" card. I call it like I see it and this team just doesn't seem to be able to advance to me right now. It would be nice to be wrong but I'm not going to blindly follow them off the cliff and chastise others that see otherwise. You root how you want to root though...I'm not the fan police.

    how many Game 1 Round 1's had the Spurs lost? did you hang yourself each time that happened?
    Apparently not!

    That's not how what works? Lottery picks don't have a higher chance of making your team better? What league are you following?

    unless you draft Tim's knees, Parker's ankles and some luck there's not much you're picking up to move these guys up the rankings.

    These same "realists" were pointing out the problems in December that they continue to have now (rebounding, poor play from Mason, Jefferson, Bogans, small ball, etc.). The only difference was we were being responded with "It's only (insert month here) up until the very end when it was obvious this team had dramatically underachieved. Has this team lived up to your expectations? Would winning 1 or 2 games in this first round make this a successful year for you?

    You are not a fan, you are a blind homer that sees nothing but silver linings in a team not capable of competing for a le.

    "true fan"

    You don't think anyone in the draft could help extend and take pressure off this team next year? Seriously? Plus, you think this first round exit is going to help Tim's knees or Parker's ankles? What good is it doing...honesty...

    Eh, they lost the playoff opener in 2003, 2005, and 2007. We won the le those years. So we'll see what happens.

    there's some luck involved, you can pick up amazing talent in any round.

    Plus, you think this first round exit is going to help Tim's knees or Parker's ankles? What good is it doing...honesty...
    rest can't hurt

    I'm just concerned about winning this series. This team obviously isn't complete enough to win a le, but who cares? We've got 4 les, we're playing with house money here.
    Idiot.

    that's what I'm getting at.

    Is this year like those championship years, in your opinion? Or, is this the year that losing Game 1 is a problem?

    yep, but the next series ended very badly if I recall correctly.

    I can't really answer that question until I see how they play Game 2. If they can take away HCA, then I could see them winning.

    winning what? the series, or the whole thing? I only ask because I remember a time when all of us took for granted that the whole thing was the Spurs to lose.

    If Spurs can get through this series, I guarantee they make it to the conference finals and give the Lakers all they can ask for. IMO

    Have to get through this one first though starting Wednesday.
