Would the Spurs lose in the Finals...

[coopdogg3]

I'm much more scared of the Lakers than I am of anybody in the East. If only for the coaching match-ups. If Spurs make it to the Finals (again, this is very premature at this point), I would expect a Spurs triumph.

IF the Spurs make the finals (VERY GOOD chance they will) they wont lose. Flip Saunders isnt beating Pop in a 7 game series. He will himself out of fear by just being in the finals. No Larry Brown there to play those chess basketball games with Pop. Spurs in 5-6 games with the series being so much less dramatic than it was in 05.

If the spurs can make it to the finals they will win the championship.
The lakers will be their toughest opponent.

The Celtics will be thier toughest opponent....believe me i tried and failed in NBA2K8 on PS3.....

Don't forget that Parker was out for that game. If he had played, the outcome would probably have been different. I guess we'll find out on St. Patrick's Day...

Garnett was out for that game as well, so it is tough to use that one as a measuring stick...

Wrong the LAL are just a streaking team like the Kings or Hornets were RELAX about them!

True Tougher opponents in playoffs.

1) Mavs = play em better
2) Jazz = better than the Lakers on defense and Jazz not bedrocks of a soft team, i.e. Odom (mentally) and Gasol (physically).
3) Pistons

No one else can threaten the Spurs. Boston? A mirage. More afraid of Cavs if they get on a run as they have the most unstoppable player in the game in James right now and quietly got better.

[QUOTE=Xtremesteven]okay, i was thinking today that NO ONE in the West can beat the Spurs in a 7 game series. Not the Mavericks, Suns, or Lakers. Mavericks got rid of the 2 guys that beat the Spurs seemingly single handedly. The Suns are just out of whack. And Lakers are too young and too soft (except Bryant and Fisher).

Okay Sir, put down that crack pipe and step away from the table........

I still believe that Mavs and Jazz toughest outs for SA in a 7 game series, Suns would be tough, LA easier soley due to experience and defensive softness, and Pistons or Cavs tough from East BUT ALL GO DOWN!
Spurs roll on to #5 - this team will be inspired in the playoffs and play defense like no one else can!

The spurs that lost to Boston isn't the Championship spurs we have known and loved. So don't worry about Boston, although they're having a great season , the same won't happen in the playoffs.

Garnett wasn't playing in that game either.

premature thread

That's the message I try to send everyone.

Only "time" will tell.
