Need to see how FA ends before making any definitive predictions, but right now I wouldn't be surprised if they find themselves the 6/7 seed. Lot of holes on the roster right now.
4 seed behind warrior houston methlahoma

2 or 3. They're still going to drill most teams partly because the league is terrible right now.
Presuming relative health for everyone, 2nd or 3rd mainly due to Leonard and continuity. More importantly, I now see the ceiling as 2nd round. Think Rockets are clear favorites and Thunder are slight ones.
6th or 7th
3-4 losses (depending on the schedule) to GS, HOU, OKC, MIN
They'll split with the Pelicans as per par
They'll lose 3-4 times to the Clippers bc Doc & Son > Pop & Mills
Lose twice to the Cavs
Pop will over-rest Kawhi for injury and PPG dropping purposes
Parker is out till Feb, so that's 10 L's at least
49-33 at best
44-38 at worst
Will wait until training camp to make a prediction. No one knows what Manu will do and we're on the SECOND DAY of free agency. I want to say somewhere between 3-5, but it's too early to say.
Anybody willing to back it up with $, tbh? 1.5 to 1 that Spurs don't finish worse than 3rd and 2 to 1 that they don't finish worse than 4th..
no I am not. I don't gamble.
but I was pessimistic on seeding this year bc:
1. I would rather Spurs prioritize development. It's clear their remaining players of the old big 3 are now injured/old or retired, and LMA is not a Spur in sprit, may even be gone after this season, so they need to play the young guys and develop. Find a gem there or flip someone for an asset. Whatever they do, they have to develop those guys. If they mess up a game or two, so be it. I will probably be disappointed in this bc Pop will go back to playing the old veterans...
2. If Manu retires I think it will definitely affect the Spurs, or even let's say he comes back but is DONE... like really Done, he should have retired DONE, let's play the young guys and bench Manu Done. The old man was still pulling off games from the bench after the Spurs slow starts due to LMA shooting bricks. Spurs will miss that and NO JSimms is no subs ution for that.
3. Have to give it to some other teams who improved and will get up to play the Spurs.
I think 3rd at worst, but the offseason is still young and many things can happen both good and bad until then.
I'll consider monetary bets in October. No sooner.
Exactly.
Not dissimilar to David Robinson's prime years.
3rd or 4th
Pretty much what I've been saying. My vote as a 3rd-5th seed was mostly pessimistic, but a 2nd seed and a 2nd round exit seems likely.
3 or 4 I think, but 2 is possible if Houston doesn't gel.
We'll see.
It's hilarious how everybody thinks the Timberwolves are suddenly a top four team.
They're anywhere from a 6th seed to missing the playoffs altogether.
I think Denver has the potential to be better than Minny.
As for the Spurs, I'm thinking 3rd seed.
2 seed
Curry or Durant sprain an ankle then we might be #1.
