Yeah the East/West disparity is sick. A 26-37 EC team is in line to make the playoffs.It's a shame that the Nuggets can't make the playoffs with a 37-26
Good win, cuz I hate seeing this Nuggets team win.

Spurs basically played three playoff games in four nights.
I agree with you that we haven't played great, but I think that's Denver drawing that out of us. They know where to attack us now, and we tend to play down to their level.
Unless the help D improves significantly, I think every game against the Nugs will be a coin toss. They have the bigs to throw at TD, their bench has finally learned to play, and otherwise average guys like Carter and Najera seem to step up against us.
Sure, if we find Juggernaut form we'll beat the Nuggets, but I'd hate to see them in the 1st round because that will be their third chance in a row to down us and they REALLY want it.
Remeber, we got very lucky on the calls tonight. Great win, but it was by no means convincing.
Denver will get at least 3 wins in the playoffs this year
True, and a good point.
And the next 4 teams are all very good, so right now is a big test for us.
Exactly. TP drew a charge on AI. Also there were several possessions in the 4th quarter where TP locked down AI and made him take tough fadeaway jumpers.
I didn't watch the whole game but it looked like the quality of shots that were taken by both teams down the stretch is what decided the match. KMart took a fading hook. JR took a contested 3 in the elbow and of course TP forced some tough shots and misses from AI
You contrast that with spurs: tp makes a driving layup, tp drives and dishes to a wide open Thomas. TD/Manu makes some FTs.
GAME
I didn't say no one believed.
I said this kind of game separates the bandwagon fans from the true fans.
I was addressing the ones who were saying things like "This team is done."
I said they should have some faith.
We all at this team when they play below their ability.
The true fans stick around after they play bad, after they lose, and after they win.
By the time the playoffs roll around, it's gonna be like the Spurs just finished a playoff run.
This all reminds of '99. It seemed like every game, the last two months of the regular season, meant something.
It was the jerseys
Spurs win 11 straight
Then switch and lose both games in new unis
Los Spurs los sucked
The Spurs won with the Los jerseys against the Pacers...
Who da the pacers????Auction of those mofo jersies
I hated the los jerseys. They're crap. And who knows if the Spurs even like them outside of Manu/Oberto.
Nice win for us though. TP really needs to step up his game. Manu and Timmy cant go on playing like this every night.
and of course Timmy for 90%FT.
Manu has a thigh contusion according to ESPN game notes.
Looks like he isn't gonna be Supermanu for a while.
Oh no...Does that mean he'll miss games?
that's not good news to me.
Manu says he's fine but we'll see how it affects him. Also it seemed like he got hit in the mouth pretty good tonight too.

After the game, he said the injury was not serious.
"The thigh is good," he said. "One of the many you get all season long. It was higher (on the thigh), and when you get hit like that, it really hurts the first five minutes to 10 minutes. Then it kind of starts loosening up. You stretch a little bit, and it's fine."
I thought Manu wears pads these days because of all those thigh contusions he's had in the past? Did he stop wearing them?
how soon can Brent play after the re-signing?
