    Well tonight was a good start. I loved what I saw in TJ Ford and Danny Green brought to the court. They also did some good things in clutch time. RJ's been amazing lately. Hopefully they can continue this trend and bring it so that we won't miss Manu that much.

    LOL after one damn game you are? LOL at once again too, you argued with me over and over last year about Bonner and you just lost that one all over bro! This could be good yes, but if Danny Green steps up every night or Anderson! Can they though? I hope so for our sakes, but right now time will tell and you are not right yes. You surely are not a genius by any means yet just chill with that there.

    There's no greater satisfaction that when I read:

    Nah man, not yet. It's only been one game and it was against the Warriors, who are still not really a playoff team. Good start though, let's see if it can keep happening.

    LOL he ignores me from the Bonner crap last year, no responses or real logic so he ignores me. Like I said Genius one game against the Warriors does not make you a genius.

    You can always rebuild. Rebuilding usually doesn't work. The majority of NBA teams have been rebuilding for decades and never won a single championship.

    Hang on for dear life.
    Bingo

    The Sixers have been rebuilding since Allen Iverson left. They aren't winning a championship any time soon. Championships are bought.

    Which ones did the Spurs buy? The Bulls?

    "I would be careful to go too far in that direction," Popovich said. "I think this will require veterans like Duncan and Parker and (Richard) Jefferson to step up their games. I wouldn't say you put it all on Kawhi Leonard and...what's the other guy's name?"

    No, its a catastrophe. The Spurs have no shot at the le anymore. Duncan will enter less rested and Manu will struggle with the shot after the return.

    I was optimistic with the progress of Blair, Splitter and the rookies, but overcoming the injury of the teams best player will be hard to overcome.

    Rather have a rusty Manu than a Manu with no legs. If the Spurs can win 65-70% of there games without Manu then this could absolutely be a good thing. Duncan shouldn't be anymore worn down then he would be with Manu in the lineup. I don't see Pop pushing the panic button and all of a sudden playing Duncan longer than he wants.

    Well, Pop has already been quoted saying Duncan (with Parker and Jefferson) need to step up. He may play the same, but doing more effort on offense.

    What does not kill me, makes me stronger.
    If the Spurs can survive Manu's injury, it could (arguably) be seen to have benefitted them as much or more than it hurt them. But no one would have wished for this development except maybe that Nietzsche guy (as quoted by G. Gordon Liddy holding his hand over a fire).

    The Spurs need to stop drafting and stashing talent overseas that never helps the team. Then when that talent eventually gets here they either trade him (Scola) for a bag of peanuts or decide he's not good enough (Mahinmi).
    Mahinmi's no big loss though. Spurs invested a lot of time into him and he was never anything more than an injury-prone big with little BBIQ. The Scola trade's still the dumbest move this franchise has ever made though. There's a good chance we could have won a fifth ring in 2008 or 2009 if we kept him.

    I would,t go as far and say it's a good thing, I would however say it's not as bad as it looks, Manu twiited he will back ion 6 weeks, that means he will about 24 games when he comes back in mid Feb. Feb 18 Clipper game. If we simply win 40 % (10 games) of the next 24 games , we would have a record of 15 and 15 (.500) with 36 games to go.

    I think we will even have a better record than .500 when he returns. Mainly because of how out of shape most of the NBA teams are early in the season. Just look at how bad the Mavs look.

    The spurs will win most of their home games and lose most of their road games. That is how the season is playing out early on.

    Just wait until they gone on the road for a few games.

    Everyone is excited about last nights game but it again was mostly hitting wide open 3 point shots. They shot worse from 2 point range than 3 point range. That is not good. The open looks won't be there in the playoffs.

    No you are not.

    How does Manu's injury have anything to do with the last two wins?

    They would have won those games regardless because early on this year it looks like home teams with some rest not in a back to back situation will have a big advantage. Spurs are 4-0 at home and 0-2 on the road.

    Spurs have one of the weakest frontlines in the NBA.
    There is no shot for a le.

    The Only way this Is A Positive, Is It will give Neal, Anderson, Leonard, and Now even Green More Minutes To See What kind Of Talent we really Have. I think Neal Is Somewhat Proven...... But those Other 3 Now Have a Opportunity to show what They Can do.
    But Losing Manu Is Not A Good thing, He is The Teams Best player.

    Don't bother with this dude as he will probably up this after a win all year long! He seems more into himself seeing his sig and tooting his own horn saying I told you so than the good of the team and what this injury really will do long term (Less wins without Manu no doubt). He is not around whe he is wrong though, argued Bonner over and over to me last year until the last month or so and then dissapeared as Bonners shot did.

    Yea, cause miami's frontline is so dominant right? The team everyone is picking to win the le...

    Wake up guys. Were primed for a run this year. I cant wait to look like a genius once again while we make a run in the playoffs this year. We arent le favorites, but we can still do it.
