    I like it when we start to fly under the radar. Who cares who the best team in the West is now? I don't and I think most Spur fans don't either. Its about who comes out of the West that counts. That be us!

    Just look at the teams the Lakers have beat. Nuff said.

    If the teams the Lakers have beat are so bad then why does SAS struggle to beat them and in many cases need 4th quarter heroics from Ginobli just to win? Shouldn't SAS be blowing them out by double digits too if they are the best team in the league?

    I think the national media types have forgotten how good the Spurs are offensively when they're clicking on all cylinders. They started 17-3 while putting on offensive clinics. When Tony really shakes off the rust, the Spurs will be right there among the best offensive teams in the league... especially with Duncan cranks it up for the playoffs (he's operating at about 80% right now). This in addition to the fact that the Spurs are always the best defensive team in the post-season.

    This is one of those statements that can go either way. I agree that when all of the big three are on it can be a very high powered offense, one of the best in the league. On the other hand, I agree with Dazed and Confused that most of the time you usually have a close game when playing the Spurs.

    Regarding the Lakers, not only can the starting 5 put up points, but when they go to the bench there are so many other guys that can put up numbers as well

    Don't you get it? History has shown that is a good omen for the Spurs.... I'll take it.

    As can K. Thomas, Finley, Stoudamire and a guy named Barry coming back for playoffs.

    Spurs are better than the Lakers and the gap is much more than the inane media knows as all they do is watch the LAL show.

    Skip Bayless has been jockeying the Spurs for at least two years now. I don't always agree with his takes and he isn't always right (Patriots).

    But at least there is one national media guy in Bristol that's bought into the Spurs other than the chuckster. What I do find funny is that as the Spurs become more relevant, the media people that ignored the Spurs, usually get details wrong when they finally try to talk Spurs Basketball. And most of the time, they just regurgitate the takes of ASS Smith.

    But Skip usually gets everything right as if he reads this board.

    And last I heard the Spurs were the defending Champs so it all goes through San Antonio, not L.A.
