    Pop will do everything he can to toss this game tonight. He does not like anything to distract in the playoffs including an undefeated home court season.
    They're playing in OKC tho

    The Charlotte loss ended any notion that the Spurs would keep gunning for the 1 seed. The OKC game tonight is being thrown for rest, and Pop will only continue to rest key players down the stretch. With GS openly admitting they want 73, and Pop letting off the gas, I think they'll go 40-1 at best.
    Warriors can have there 73 wins....Spurs will be fine with another Championship...

    538 has 41-0 at 45%

    93% New Orleans
    86% Toronto
    69% Golden State
    82% Oklahoma City
    Good find. I have to admit that'd be a tough gauntlet even if we were playing all our players. I wonder if they factored that in?

    I'm hoping we win vs. GS so we can watch SaltyKC play Durant and Westbrook when they should be resting

    GS and Dallas left.
    GS and OKC*

    Anyways, I brought this up in another topic, but that last home game vs. OKC might not be as difficult as you'd expect. That's OKC's last game of the season, and they'll be on the 2nd night of a b2b. Considering they'll already have the 3 seed locked up at that point, there's a good chance they won't be playing everyone.

    It's going to come down to the Golden State game. Unfortunately I think Iguodala will be back by then, and GS will be gunning for a record of their own...so it's going to be a really tough game even if Pop does decide to play everyone. I just hope he actually gives them a shot as opposed to sitting a bunch of guys and basically throwing the game away.

    Who gives a ?

    We are probably resting tons of guys for at least 2 of those games. Probably vs OKC and Worriers. Nothing to prove there.

    Well probably go for the win over NOLA and call it a season.
    Pop didn't phone in the Toronto game.

    Manu said 41-0 isn't important to them; but I don't much believe it, tbh.
    Kyle Anderson gave an interview in Sirius XM stating the same.

    In an interview with Sirius XM NBA Radio, Kyle Anderson flat out said the team isn't worried about going undefeated or not.
    We don't talk about it or talk about the streak or the record or anything like that. We just want to be playing the type of basketball we're playing when it comes close to playoff time. We don't talk about it or think about it.
    It's not something we're reaching for.

    Talk is cheap. If Pop has his starters out there in the 4th quarters of the Warriors and Thunder games, they're going for it.

    That's a script. All these ers say the same thing as if they had been brainwashed. Specially Danny, who's Pop's muppet. It is humanly impossible to not think about it.

    Patty Mills saying the same thing on Espn San Antonio. Wish I could post it but I don't know how to link it. I found it in soundcloud. They probably talk more to the media about it than among themselves.

    He said they want to win every game. A record doesn't make it more important than it should already be.

    Spurs are like the Patriots. They run a tight ship when it comes to dealing with the media. All the players got the memo to downplay 41-0.

    They sure did play that Raptors game 'til the very end. Pop could had rested people and just take the L if it came down to it. It'll be interesting to see what happens if they lose @ Warriors. Whether or not they were actually playing for home court or actually want that record. If it's the former, he might shut down some people during the home stand against the Ws and Thunder. Or their priorities might change and just go for the record if enough of the players want it. Who knows. That's why he's CIA Pop.
