The Warriors are not a threat to the Spurs

[Rain Man]

Yup this is a troll I called it earlier. Whatsup Lakers troll.

I am most definitely not a Laker troll. If there is a team that I truly hate it would be the Lakers. Which is why I bought in with the Spurs and their made not bought promise. I could not stand the Lakers or cHeat for what they did. Then what do the Spurs do? They go out and get, what they believe to be, the equivalent of a franchise player. The Warriors on the other hand have been putting this team together for quite some time. A truly made team. A team that holds each other in high regard and truly cares for one another and it shows in their play. They recognize their leader and fully commit their loyalty to him because it means committing to the team.

Open your heart, brother.

Lakerfan you are welcome to join as well. Just do what is right and denounce the team that is full of pride, selfishness and greed.

You are a troll. A lakerfan pretending not be a troll how clever they are like a 100 incarnations of this type of troll .

[Arcadian]

Interesting analogy.

Even if the Warriors are better than the Mavs and Suns of the last decade, the Spurs are still more experienced. Remember, the Warriors look up to the Spurs, not the other way around.

I agree, there have been a number of laker trolls. I, however, am not one of them. I know that it is hard to believe, brother. I didn't want to admit it at first either. The reality is we will either convert and believe or be forced to live with heartache and despair.

Duncan being out killed that game. They still lose but not by 30.. We embarrassed ourselves..

We're going to have to put Green and Kawhi (whoever's not guarding Steph guards Barnes) on Steph and hide Parker on Klay Thompson. Unfortunately that could bite us in the ass. My only real worry is hiding Parker/Patty on defense. Patty SHOULD be able to stay with Barbosa.

Don't play either. Kawhi on Curry, Manu at Klay, and Green at Barnes.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

If the Spurs could allow Amare to score 38 ppg and still win a series, the same can be said for GS. Let Curry have his and shut down everyone else. This is exactly the strategy that the Spurs will use against GS in the playoffs.

Problem is Amare only scored 2's and we won a lot of those by only a few points or so. Change a lot of those to 3's and we give up an additional 10 ppg to Curry and lose by about 5 instead of winning by about 5 tbh.

Play Anderson/Simmons at backup PG?

[Kawhitstorm]

The best version of the Suns was the 2009-10 team when they actually played respectable defense but they got overwhelmed by the MVPau/Odumb/Bynum frontline.

My point exactly from earlier. A lot different when a guy is putting up 110 (Stat) than 120 (Curry) points per 100 possessions.

disagree, think their best iteration was the first one (04-05) because of the sheer explosive talent and shooting/scoring in that stacked starting lineup. Amaré was never the same after the first knee injury, he was still very good just a couple steps slower and not as dominant near the rim after 2005. That team didn't have much of a bench or defense though.


Sarver screwed the pooch by trading JJ for Diaw and Q-Rich for Kurt Thomas. I think they were good enough to win the championship with that original lineup, and they could have had Raja Bell and Tim Thomas for cheap regardless.

this... imagine a Curry 3 for every electrifying STAT dunk in 2005. Suns would've taken it, it's not like STAT ever played defense anyways

Amare actually became a complete offensive player in 2009-10 after he added a Blake-ish mid-range shots. Besides, Q-Rich was a in' gunner who was no better than Marcus Thornton. In 2010 they had Grant Hill/Robin Lopez who were very good defenders & Channing Frye was the best stretch 5 in the league. Besides, Dudley was a decent 3 & D guy along w/ Jason Richardson playing out of his mind in the playoffs. Dragic was also a decent backup for Nash which was something they never had during his MVP years.

They were basically a Ron Artest putback at the buzzer away from going to the Finals after they stomped the Spurs as bad as any team during the Big 3 era.

Definitely the worst Spurs team in the big 3 era.

I just believe home court is a huge factor. Think about it, both teams are undefeated at home. There's a reason for that. I mean, all we can do is wait until March and everyone will see. Timmy will hopefully not garner a DNP, and the screaming lady will carry us to victory.

That 2010 Spurs squad bounced by the 2nd seed Mavs who went on the win the Chip w/ the same core after adding Chandler (actually Caron Butler was injured in 2011). That was also George Hills coming out party & Jefferson was actually decent unlike 2011. There wasn't much change b/w the 2009-10 & 2010-11 Spurs personnel wise either besides Gary Neal (Tony just missed a bunch of game in 2009-10)

Say what you want about the Spurs but the 2009-10 Suns were the best version of the 6 second or less squads.

[dbestpro]

Playoffs are always more physical, as the teams get away with more aggressive defense. If that continues, I would not be surprised if the Warriors get bounced by a team like Memphis, should they get it going at the right time. There are no foregone conclusions. That is why they still play the game.

Spurs haven't yet played OKC/Worriers/Raptors/Bulls at home.

For the Worriers, it's the match-up that have mattered more-so than home-court based on the Clippers, Raptors, Bucks, Nuggets, Pistons, Pacers & Mavs games. They eventually pulled out wins against those teams at home in the 4th quarter but they either lost or won a close game on the road.
