Well, you tried to reason with these trolls, as did I, and look where it got you, same as with me.
It is hard to resist feeding them but that is exactly what trolls want you to do, they bait, and the best thing to do with ignorant people that have no desire to change their ignorant ways is to just laugh at them, especially since they stubbornly refuse to see reason or wisdom, foreign concepts to them.

I love how Benefactor's post references kids under 30, and the high school kid clearly 'likes' the comment that goes against Benefactor's

Not even trying to with you, real talk...you're the most trollable poster on the site. It makes it worse for you in how whiny your posts can come off in context. If I was a friend, I'd tell you to grow some balls.

Is your name TGY? No!
Wasn't even talking about you, yet you choose to bash me again?

I'm talking to you and you obviously read my post. Instead of dancing around the issue like an immature little kid, take my mother ing advice.

So you want to start it up again with me?
Dancing around the issue?
Read your post?
What the are you talking about?
I have no issue with you, but if you escalate things again, I can certainly make one.
If you have an issue with someone, take it up with them and leave me out of it!
I've kept my end up and not bashed you or skull, but we can get it back on if you want,

You really want to spar with me again after I demasculanized you? All I did was offer advice because I'm nice. Don't make this about me, it's about you and your vulnerable tendencies to be a whiny pussy online.

championship or bust

Exactly. In fact this season, or postseason I should say, should be about taking no prisoners by steamrolling to an NBA le. By that I mean not caring about the Spurs winning certain playoff games filled with controversy (whether it's by blown calls or no calls in crunch time or Horry-esque hits on other teams' players or so on) and just win the LOB BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. I don't care who says the Spurs don't deserve it as long as they win it period. Almost everybody in America hates the Spurs anyway, so to with them.

NO MERCY.

[xmas1997]

I don't spar with cretins, it's unfair to take advantage of eunuchs.
Apparently you didn't get enough the first time.
You were a fool then, and you'll be made a fool again.
Once a fool, always a fool.
You know who the real trolls are on here, yet you turn a blind eye to them, and follow their party line hook line and sinker.
I thought you once told me you were your own man. So am I.
Then did you all of a sudden decide to bash me, when I wasn't even referring to you?
Do you have a guilt complex or something?
We had an uneasy truce, but now you want to break it?

Once again the Spurs should be under the radar.

I don't think there's an 'outlook' for the 2012-13 season...it's over...we lost...time to turn the page.


What I do expect/hope is that the Spurs will play with the knowledge and confidence that they can absolutely make it back to the Finals, and absolutely win it all this year. My thought is that the West has gotten a little weaker. I think the Clippers will be tougher, and Houston might be better. Golden State will be on par with last season, same for Memphis, but we'll see a little decline from OKC. The Lakers and Mavs could be the spoilers if either of those teams gets going towards the end of the year. You know LA will go after a player or two mid-stream if they're not where they want to be by mid-season, and Dallas was injury plagued last year, and I always feel they're tough with Dirk no matter how much Cuban tries to mess that team up.

It's going to boil down to who's healthy and who's not at year-end, but if SA can go through next post season at full strength...a GIANT if, then I'd say our chances of winning it all are as good as anyone else's.

I think Miami might get beat in the Eastern PO this year...not sure why, just a feeling.

I agree with you. As for the good health part, it boils down to luck. They all say you have to not only be a really good basketball team, but also really lucky that your key players stay healthy.

Son, I'm giving you advice. You either take it or ignore it. You seem to want to fight it. I wonder why.

Good luck such as the luck of last year (ideal matchups, Westbrick going down,etc) are hard to come by. Not going to be easy to get back.

I agree. Good luck definitely extends beyond just having your own players healthy at the right time.
I thought our luck was with us in the finals when the announcers kept saying Wade was hurt. But then TP got hurt, and Wade played beyond himself.
Oh well, luck is a fickle mistress.

Too bad the Popsuckers and Manu s deny this. They say that we still would have beaten the Lakers and Thunder had Kobe and Westbrook been healthy which I agree BUT sweeping the Lakers and Memphis is what allowed our team to be healthy during the NBA Finals. Of course all that did no good because that TOSB of Manu was well rested and healthy and he still played like .

Just making sure you didn't mean Unix. Ha.

[tmtcsc]

I guess I'm in the minority when it comes to the Thunder. Playing them without Westbrick would have made things easier but I believed if both teams were healthy and played their best, the Spurs still would have come out on top. This year, the Thunder are going to be minus their 3rd scoring threat with Martin gone. They have clearly taken a step back. The Spurs remain the better TEAM. Barring injuries, we win the le in 2013-2014.

We lost Gary Neal and replaced him with Bellinelli and replaced Blair with Penderchangedhisname. I still think we could use a veteran pg to back-up Tony but perhaps Joseph, DeColo and Mills can fill the void.

As for the rest of the West:

Golden State added a nice piece with A.I., but they gave up some quality role players in the process. I think they took a step back as far as chemistry goes. It will take a while to get it going.

Houston added Howard but he's a cry-baby and perennial loser. They too will need time to gel.

The Clippers may have improved their coaching but will it be enough to make Deandre Jordan and Griffith better? I don't think so.

Memphis lost their coach against most of the players' wishes. As much as I disliked watching that pimp-suit wearing fool pace the sidelines, he was a good leader. They re-signed Allen and added Mike Miller but he's not the answer. They still lack a perimeter player who can create his own shot. They took a step back.

[hyhy]

My look on the season is the biggest pain a man has ever experience, dissepointment that kill your soul and that make you miserable forever with no chance to get even a little, the last season was the most dark experience god could create and hurt a human being...

Common sense and Logic says you should kill yourself.
