Living by that 3. Probably will die by it in the next game against a good team.

Mid, virtually all of the 3's (while a fluky percentage) were good shots within the rhythm of the offense. Also, have you not been watching them play this year? They are far less reliant on the three ball to win games this year. It's not even close, nor fair to say they live and die by the 3 - at least not like in the past few years.

I know. I was just being snarky.

Leonard is a beast.

I think the main reason the Spurs lost their last 4 on the road was because Timmy can't carry a defense that long without an elite perimeter defender with him at his age.

still not late for the mavs to tank the season get a lottery pick, use whatever capspace and sign some FA...

[Trainwreck2100]

classy ing spurs were trying to honor Dirk's return by winning by 41 points (Dirk's number) But the Mavs had to unclass it right at the end

[irishock]

Only guy worth getting is Wiggins and we're not going to drop to the first pick.

[Latarian Milton]

you just saw what an awful team the spurs can be when they go out in full strength. it's still regular season though and there still exists the question as to whehter they're gonna survive in the playoffs with the current bigs rotation tbh

I think the Mavs sneak in as the #7 or #8 seed, and SA is definitely #1 or #2. Spurs have 3 series wins vs Dallas' 2.

Spurs could only pray for a perfect matchup. But Lakers loom as 7th or 8th seed not that should scare any Spur fans we suck right now.

They won't beat Grizz, Okc or Heat with this team but they should be favored over everyone else even Clips but that would be a great series if flops are called fairly.

Ouch.... now I think it's time for Cuban to admit he was a complete dumb for trashing a championship team because he was fraidy scared of the new CBA...

Naw, he wanted a return on his investment. Win the ring, reap the regular season ticket and bandwagon apparel money the following years. It costs too much to pay for rings. Mark is a business man, he gave the Mavs fan the old okie doke.

Lakers fans still overrating the Grizzlies, I see. I understand they gifted you Gasol, and thus, two les, but Lakers fans really need to stop hyping up the Grizzlies like they're the reincarnation of the '99 Spurs ("ooh, their frontline is so big and imposing. No one can hang with them down on the block.")

Grizz caught lightning in the bottle the year they upset the Spurs, which was a much different team than the current Spurs. It's foolish to believe the outcome of that series will have any significance toward a prediction in future playoff matchup. It's like Spurs fans telling Clippers fans they have no chance because the Spurs swept them last year.

Maybe you are right. We shall see ... Gay is the key.

[Clipper Nation]

The Grizzlies ARE pretty overrated, tbh... Rudy Gay will chuck them out of the playoffs and their thug cheapshotting ways will do nothing but give the real contenders some more motivation....

They only lack a closer, they have indeed the best frontline and the best defense, not sure what your point is, hopefully it has nothing to do with the regular season record the Spurs have vs the Grizz the past year playing mostly a Zbo-less team.
