**J.T.** · 03-03-2008

Philly is playing well but overlooked since Boston is next so it's a trap game, Denver and Phoenix are fighting for their lives whereas Spurs are fighting for a seed. Denver and Phoenix also matchup well with the Spurs.

Dallas played well enough that last game that they might have won if they were at home. I think they want revenge...should be a great game.

I know the Spurs lost to Seattle when they had Phoenix next, so I can see where you're coming from, but I don't think the Spurs will fall for trap games during the stretch run. They always play their best ball after the All-Star break, they have a nice streak going now, and I don't see any reason for them to lose to Philadelphia. They have too much experience and wins are at a premium in the west right now.

Agree with your take on Dallas though. Spurs-Mavs is always a 48 minute game though. They beat us pretty good on their court early in the season, maybe we want revenge for that?

Anyway, I guess give me a ticket for the 12-3 bandwagon too.

**ForeignFan** · 03-03-2008

11-4 hopefully

**urunobili** · 03-03-2008

10-5

**SouthernFried** · 03-03-2008

How, and who, determines these schedules? This one is seriously tuff.

He obviously isn't aware of SPAM.

12-3 seems like the logical answer at this point.

**easjer** · 03-03-2008

Could we get a vBookie on this?

I'm going with 11-4.

Sterns final attempt to at least get the Lakers the nbr one seed.

Dallas now in nbr seven, and in danger of falling out if they don't do something quick. A loss at Utah tonight will demoralize them. Maybe beyond repair.

**thousandth** · 03-03-2008

5 back to back in the next fifteen?

**WildcardManu** · 03-03-2008

I only care that they stomp Boston to the ground now that TP is back in the lineup. Other than that, my prediction is that the Spurs go on a tear through these 15 games crushing the opposition just to show how serious they are this time of year every year even if it's an even year, but a leap year.

This is a tough schedule. Four back to backs. The next four games come over five days and that includes a game at Denver on the second night of the first back to back. After the Nets again on Tuesday and the Pacers on Thursday the Spurs have a nasty seven game stretch of Denver (twice), @Phoenix, @New Orleans, @Detroit, @Philadelphia, and Boston. Then after a reprieve against the Bulls and Kings they are @Dallas and @Orlando.

However, they won their last three games and I wouldn't have been surprised to have seen them drop any of those. The Mavs are always a war. The Bucks always seem to hang a loss on the Spurs at Milwaukee regardless of their personnel and the second night of a back to back against the new look Nets with the early start and their talent could easily have been a loss.

We're about to find out what this team is made of.

Denver twice in 4 days, both coming after a B2B.

Someone certainly did them a favor

**theroc5** · 03-03-2008

14-1...loose to minny

**Holt's Cat** · 03-03-2008

Fri 07 @ Denver
Sun 09 @ Phoenix
Mon 10 vs Denver
Wed 12 @ New Orleans
Fri 14 @ Detroit
Sat 15 @ Philadelphia
Mon 17 vs Boston

Yup, homerism clouds judgement.

10-5 would not be bad.

I say 11-4.

**Martin R** · 03-03-2008

Tue 04 vs New Jersey - WIN
Ownage.
It's enough to throw out the Spurs t-shirt on the floor to beat this guys.

Thu 06 vs Indiana - WIN
I think this is THE most difficult game result prediction. Spurs may be thinking on Denver...

Fri 07 @ Denver - WIN
Tough but possible.

Sun 09 @ Phoenix - WIN
These are not the Suns of the first part of the season. They are more vulnerable and slower than before.

Mon 10 vs Denver - LOSS
Worn out.

Wed 12 @ New Orleans - LOSS
Tough game with an "incident" turning the result against SA.

Fri 14 @ Detroit - LOSS

Sat 15 @ Philadelphia - WIN

Mon 17 vs Boston - WIN

Thu 20 @ Chicago - WIN

Fri 21 vs Sacramento - LOSS

Sun 23 @ Dallas - LOSS

Tue 25 @ Orlando - WIN

Wed 26 vs LA Clippers - WIN

Fri 28 vs Minnesota - WIN

Spurs will go 10-5.

And in the mean time the Mavs get 9 of the next 10 at home starting on Wednesday.

Don't look now but this Divisional race is not over.

**Southwest Texas Fan** · 03-03-2008

I wonder what the NBA was thinking when they made that schedule. Anyway I say 12-3.
