    Getting way ahead of myself here, but I'm cracked out on coffee and putting off studying for finals so extending things and looking at the schedule over the next month...

    Washington (they won't have Beal)
    LAC
    Indiana (their offense is pretty dependent on PG, and he'll have Kawhi on him)
    @Minnesota
    Denver (b2b)
    Minnesota
    Phoenix
    Houston
    @Milwaukee
    Utah (Gobert might still be out)
    New York
    @Brooklyn
    @Pistons (b2b)
    Cleveland (will be their 5th road game of a 6-game road trip)

    Let's say we lose to the Clippers, lose the Christmas game in Houston (this will probably happen because we're the Spurs), lose to Cleveland, and then lose one other random game somewhere in there. We could certainly win some of those games, but for the sake of this let's just assume we don't. That would put us at 31-9 over the first 40 games. Pretty damn solid, especially considering I expected us to start off slow trying to get Aldridge integrated

    That's the point ..although i don't think we'll lose all big games..but we need the pad the record before the schedule makes a tough turn in the second part of January..I would like to put more distance between us and the Thunder in case an injury befalls us late (you know Kawhi out of couple of weeks for some nagging stuff could be see us go 2-4 ..etc..)..Looking at how things turned out early , i would be tad disappointed i we miss on top 2 seed in the West (+ HC over potential meeting with Cavs)..

    Job done this team hasn't messed up a lot this season..i would argue only the Pelicans/Toronto are the two games we didn't show up to..

    Having said that,we need to step up our D again as we head for road games..last 3 games have left a lot to be desired..

    We won by 19,8,and 14 points, pretty much right on our season differential, and against better comp. Perhaps our expectations are too high?
