29 games left - what record do the Spurs end up with

[spurs1990]

Okay so 7 games left and all but officially Spurs are locked into 2nd seed.

I didn't think they'd sweep the tough five game home stand, and only had one WTF loss (Charlotte), so they're ahead of my prediction of 66-16.

Here's how I see the season playing out (admittedly a drinking-the-koolaid leaning assessment)

4/2 Toronto - expecting a win due to everyone playing, reaction to the earlier L, and probably last home game they'll want to take seriously; Win Record (64-12)
4/5 @Utah - Jazz in heated battle for the POs. I see LMA & Leonard playing which gives us a decent shot at winning; team will be relatively fresh; Win (65-12)
4/7 @GS - assured L similar to the last road gm vs OK. Expect Aldridge/Leonard to rest here. Loss (65-13)
4/8 @Den - Thuggets currently hold 11th worst record and only 2 Ls from being 7th worst. A tanking game with the big 2 playing for SA means a win (66-13)
4/10 GS - Sitting on 39-0 at home. GS would have already broken the Bulls record the night before. GS rests, but who for Spurs?. 50/50 gm w/ odds to home team (67-13)
4/12 OK - Nothing to play for seeding wise for OKc, BUT they would love to be the one in forty and one, but believe Spurs won't rest entirely. 50/50 odds to home team (68-13)
4/13 @Dal - Mavs have the toughest remaining gms of the three 37-38 teams in 7-9th place. If the POs are truly on the line for them, it's a L. (68-14)

Accolades if this plays out:

• 1st (would get to 41 one day before GS) team EVER to go undefeated at home
• 1st (likely along w/ GS) team EVER to go entire season without consecutive losses
• 7th team in HISTORY to win at least 68 games in a season (along with GS)

Sets up an extremely monumental event with 74-8 GS team playing a 68-14 Spurs team in the playoffs, teams with the 1st and 7th best records of all time!

That would be 142 regular season wins between two teams playing each other. If that series goes 7 games, it will be considered one of the all-time epic playoff series. If one team manages to win in 5 games, they would have to be considered one of the great teams of all time.

Probably THE greatest if in 5, tbh. It probably won't happen though

Actually, OKC has something to play for seeding wise: They are a half game behind the Cavs for HCA in the Finals.

Lol...if they get through the Spurs AND Warriors without HC, they don't need it against the Cavs.

LeBron owns Durant so they would need ThudeRefs.
