    I'm sure the 2010 Celtics thought the same thing.

    I truly believe that the spurs can come back to the finals and ironically go against the heat.. I don't know why, call me a homer, but i know in my heart that the drive for 5 is not over.... It'll happen spurs fans.. I know its asking much, but.... Have faith.
    same here....the only thing though is waiting for awhile....wish it was already the new season.....also idk if the heat will be back in the fianls...in my opinion the heat won't win another le in along time.....

    The Spurs were one rebound away in Game 6...
    But it wasn't just an unlucky bounce that lost that game. Pop benched the hall of famer, ffs. Manu threw 8 unforced turnovers. It's over.

    Bonner will be gone for sure, right? That would be a good start to the offseason.

    True, but Spurs needed perimeter defense that possession as well. It was a gamble that didn't pay off well at all.

    I definitely want to take a look at Oden. I was looking at him all season trying to find any info on his recovery. Spurs need to take a risk.

    Will they be back? Don't see a good reason why they would be.

    MANU - I don't think he's even worth the MLE at this point. Too broken down, can't be depended on anymore. Maybe a 3/10 deal with the third year with a 1m partial guarantee. Any more and there won't be enough room left to improve the team.

    Splitter - Goodbye. If he can't make an 8-man rotation in the finals for more than 5 minutes, he can't be worth paying. Not more than the MLE, , not the MLE. And I loved Splitter, knew how wrong he was being used his rookie year. But he can't play for Pop. Sign&Trade or renounce, because he can't play here. I'd rather see Baynes foul out in 15 minutes than have Splitter benched by Pop.

    Neal - GOODBYE GOODBYE. He gave up just as many and usually more than he got. He's not worth it at all. I'd rather the Spurs overpay Re than take Neal back. Or some other workout invite scrub.

    I don't think Tim Duncan makes the Finals again.

    I'm not being fatalistic, I'm just giving my honest appraisal.
    We're going to get better next year.

    and i dont think any team in the west will become better than us, tbh.

    If Spurs stand pat, they will still be a very good team and makes the playoffs with a 50+ win season. If they want to be more than that, they will need to be active this summer.

    I originally thought that if they lost it would be too hard to try again but now feel that their is a good chance they could make it back. I hope its with Manu but maybe he should stop playing for Argentina every year. Other NBA players like to take a rest in the off season so they can like REST THEIR ING BODIES!!!! Just a suggestion, not an expert.

    I want to thank all of the comments both negative and positive this post season. I was too wrapped up in the games to feel like I'd add anything to the posts but I'll tell you this - I'm bummed. This team will be back to compete but the finals? I don't know. I was at the 5th game- I flew in from L.A. and Manu turned back the clock. But going forward and because they blew that opportunity...I'm not so sure. I will always be a fan but man, they were so close...

    Looking forward to the offseason and the Spurs Thinktank to get over my heartbreak.

    Spurs are the best organization in sports. They build through the draft, not through collusion. They will be very good for a long time. Miami will blow up when James leaves and will look like Dallas or Phoenix.

    Damn straight the Spurs will be back, and it's the beginning of the Kawhi "Quiet Monster" Leonard era. I know I'm looking forward to every second!

    Last offseason, I wasn't confident that the Spurs could sustain a championship level team. I know everyone has written this team off again (for like the 7th offseason in a row, literally) but I'm actually more optimistic than I was a year ago.

    Main reason: Kawhi Leonard's wide open potential. I don't know how good he can become but he he could develop into a great player. It's within the realm of possibilities. , he was there at times during this playoff run at only 21 years old.

    Green didn't respond well to the Heat's defensive adjustment on him but he's legitimately a top 10-15 starting shooting guard. Sure, he's a specialist but he's really damn useful when he's able to stay within his role.

    I'm going to stop counting out Duncan. Maybe he finally slows down next season. But maybe he doesn't. He looked better this year than any of the previous five or so seasons.

    Bring back Ginobili and work him into a more specialized role. He's not capable of being a main distributor any longer but he's still damn valuable. As a fourth or fifth best player on your team, Ginobili is gold.

    Parker has gotten better and better and better. There's a chance he finally stops getting better but with advancements in his basketball IQ and ability to manage games, he should stay elite for a couple more years.

    Diaw is a solid role player. Joseph has very nice potential and could blossom if given a full season as the backup point guard. Splitter at a reasonable price is worth bringing back and is a proven, high-quality regular season player. Neal at a reasonable price would also be worth bringing back, especially if the Spurs believe his late season unevenness was due to his chronic foot injury.

    The Spurs also have some roster and salary cap flexibility. If they can add even one more dependable piece, have Leonard and Green continue progressing as players, and the Big 3 avoid any drastic cliff falls, this team can get back here next season.

    Write these guys off at your own peril. I believe it's a strong possibility that the Spurs can put together another great playoff push next season.
    I am in complete agreement! I think this rugged run will help the Spurs not only beat OKC, but also make darn sure they lock up home court advantage!

    all you Brian Downey Spurs Fans that had one foot in the bucket. Ride or die. And I died with my team tonight.

    Yeah, I was wrong. But I am proud of these guys. They gave it all they had. Spurs were the better team. Miami just had home court.

    San Antonio, rise up and let's keep supporting the Spurs. We will rebuild this !

    Bull they're not even better than us. We lost game 6 they did not win it. And what the is up with Pop and Manu. I'm really starting to wonder if someone really did kidnap one of their kids.

    Spurs are ALWAYS a threat. This team always brings it all out. I expect them to come out again next year, win 50+ in regular season yet again, and compete for another ring. Where it stands right now, this team is in good shape. A few minor tweaks over the off-season and some hard work will get us back in the game and ready to compete again.

    They won't be back next season unless they make some tough decisions. We need a new sixth man. We have to decrease Manu's role or lose him altogether. Also limit what you are going to offer Tiago (6-7 mil). We have cap space for the first time in a long time. Hopefully the Spurs good run will make a player want to come here. I think the nucleus of Parker, Leonard, and Duncan is solid for one more year. I think everyone knows Duncan is gone after next year and we'll use that money to pay Leonard. Heat will lose next year. I don't even think they'll be in the finals. Chicago or Indy will take them out.
