    I think the Spurs can beat any team out there 4 times. Whether or not the Spurs beat themselves is the iffy part.

    For the Mavs, the Suns are by far the biggest threat. Assuming a healthy Nash, it is essential that the Mavs stick with Avery's defensive strategies to make sure that the Suns earn every point they score. Like the Juggernaut of Marvel Comics lore, should the Suns be allowed any momentum, they cannot be stopped.

    I agree,i think we wil be able to turn it up in the playoffs. We are a veteren team that is already proven. I think were similair to how the Lakers were in 2001 and 2002 where they were very good in the regular season ,maybe 55 wins,but not over 60,but had the ability to turn it on in the playoffs.
    You're smoking something really good if you think the Spurs are anywhere near the capability of pulling that off.

    The Spurs being a veteran team is part of the problem. Aside from the big three, other players such as Bowen, Horry, and Finley are past their primes. I don't see the playoffs being so kind to the Spurs.

    As a Mavs fan, I am going to say the Spurs will give the Mavs the most trouble. The Suns are starting to find out what its like to play teams that are over 500 and are falling back to earth. Also the riding hard of their top six players for 2/3's of the season (To this point) to keep up with the Mavs is starting to take its toll on their health. They will run out of gas again this year .. they learned nothing from last years quotes from Nash and Marion "Man, I'm tired"

    The Rockets will always have two questions with them 1) Are they healthy. 2) Can there star players win a playoff series. If those answers are yes, they would be the most dangerous to ANY TEAM.

    Its of note that the Rockets and the Spurs are in a dead heat for the 4-5 match-up in the first round ... Not good .... At least for the two teams, it is good for the fans.

    The Jazz are sort of a Mavs-lite type of team (Scoring at every position and a big that can hit the three) They are looking like the third seed right now would be wise to keep that seed to avoid the Rockets in the First round.

    I don't think that the Spurs can beat any of these three teams. I don't think that they will drop to lower then the Fifth seed, so to avoid a dangerous Rockets team, they have to climb up into the third slot, from there their chances of meeting the Mavs in the second round become much better.

    I think the Mavs should be more afraid of a healthy Rockets team. And I think the Jazz would give them a tough series as well. Mavs can easily beat the Suns, IMO.


    For the Spurs, I don't think they have a prayer's chance to beat any of the top teams in the West: Mavs, Jazz, Rockets (if healthy), Suns (yes, I think even the Suns could beat this current team) Lakers may even take them to 7 games.

    Mavs are the scariest team in the league right now. In the East, Heat are looking scary.
    Mavs are their

    if the playoffs were to start now:

    i don't think the rockets will EVER be healthy, so i don't fear them, (but if they are, then we're goners). Yao may be back but TMac's back will always be a suspect. it does always seem to flare up at the worst possible time for them

    the jazz are brutally physical, they'll kill us on the boards especially when boozer is back. we don't have the legs to outrun them either so we're doomed to jazz.

    As for the LA, bring them on! I think we can beat the out of Kobe's nincompoops. We''ll just have to allow Kobe average 50 on us and shut down the others. At least we'll get the series in 6.

    For the Mavs, at the style and intensity we're playing, compared to theirs, I think we'll be really lucky to reach game 5.

    Brand new to the board. I have been a Spurs fan since 1994/1995 when we beat the Lakers 4-2 in the 2nd round of the playoffs. Look forward to getting to know everyone here.

    I wanted to know which team do you fear the most in the playoffs? Is there a team or teams you feel match up very well with us.

    1. Suns
    2. Mavericks
    3 Jazz
    4 Rockets
    5 Lakers

    Id go with the Mavericks and Lakers.
    Ah, the 1995 team. That should have been our first le.

    Right now, don't think the Spurs would beat any of the West playoff teams, and only the bottom 3 or 4 playoff seeds in the East.

    It's more a question of, whom ought the Spurs NOT fear?

    The top 4 in the west, plus Miami if Riley takes the helm again.
    Houston doesn't worry me. The Jazz shouldn't, but they really seem to have our number (the Memo effect? I dunno). I don't see anybody but Miami stopping us in the East, but if we get to the finals, it's gonna be tough.

    I don't fear any team. I'm not going to deny that Dallas is playing better. But until they get over the hump they really aren't doing anything different this year than they have in past years. If last years Heat can beat Dallas so can this years Spurs. The Suns? Maybe.

    1. Suns
    2. Anyone else. The west is so deep that any team can get hot in the playoffs and be a threat.

    none.

    But for motivation they should watch the new Rocky. And pay attention to this quote, "But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done."

    It's a good quote. I don't want them to end up like that though!! ( I have to admit he looks good for being 60 years old)
