not really, i just wanna know who has the sig about spurs fans each having their own personal ledge from which to jump, at their chosen time.
manu foulin' dirk hurt, but i def hadnt jumped yet
Correct me if I'm wrong...but didn't both of Jordan's 3 peat teams perform worse in the regular season with each succesive year? I believe they did.
So did the Rockets.
So did the Lakers.
In fact every repeat champion since about 1990 has performed worse in the regular season the following year.
Link to the official website for Kleenex?
It wasn't a must win game, if you read what I said, I said it was a game the Spurs SHOULD have won hands down.
When you've lost 3 in a row, dropped down to the 6th seed from the 1st seed in a matter of days, have only 16 games left in the regular season, went up 23 points in the first quarter, were playing in front of your home crowd, I'd say the Spurs should have won the game instead of collapsing as they did in the 2nd half. Every game matters right now in the tough Western Conference.
This is an exercise in irony, right?
This game was a must win because the spurs are about 2 games out of the ing lotter y.
How ing important is that? Some of you guys ing kill me sometimes with your dumbass stupidity.
False...the only one that matters to the Spurs is the one that eliminates them from the playoffs, and you won't see that game happen.
I want the eighth seed...I want Houston in the first round. freaking yeah...why wouldn't you want that?
Let the Mavs, Suns and Lakers beat the crap out of each other....Spurs have some old scores that need to be settled.
Boston is looking very, very impressive. The Cassell signing may just be the thing that takes them over the top.
The Heat being the biggest one right there. Not much le experience on that squad and they gave nobody the impression they were contenders all year and then come playoff time, they were pretty fantastic, although Dallas did choke in the finals.
You were clearly being facetious. Don't play coy. I've heard the same bull a million times from Spurs fans. It's the "go to" response whenever a Mavs fan interjects a legitimate opinion.
It's amazing what the Spurs have done over the past 10 years, but if you think their accomplishments make you personally more of an expert on "championship" basketball than any other hardcore NBA fan, you are sadly mistaken.
Huh? If he played against Vaughn everynight then maybe... btw, that was dumb ing move...
I got sick of watching Cassell score 12 straight points on Vaughn before Pop finally ing did something.
Not me?..? (the you rambling about)
You feel like it is a MUST win in the moment but it was NOT. The thing about the west is the Spurs could win 3 of the next 4 and if they get some help move up like 3 spots. It is that crazy right now.
2004 Playoffs vs LAL
Well, you did post something positive about the Spurs in a Spurs forum.
Whott, are you Nostradamus now and can see in the future? How the heck do you know that the Rockets will get or keep the first seed?
Spurs need to win as many games as they can to get a top 4 seed. It's asking way too much for a Spurs team that's sub-par on the road this year especially, to win 3 straight playoff series on the road without HCA. What's more, even if they get Houston and beat them in the first round, do you think they'll be able to beat a team like the Jazz, or a healthy Lakers team, or even the Mavs playing this way?
whatever....
Agreed... but in less harsh words maybe hahahaha
It's a sad day when Sequ agress with me....
Bottom line...when Pop wants to start winning games, he'll stop playing small down the stretch of games. Pop wants them with a chip on their shoulder and this team has no doubts it can win a championship.
I will however celebrate Finley grabbing some pine.
I'm not sure Pop truly thinks Finley is an answer. Once Barry comes back, Finley looks like the obvious choice in far as who is going to have their minutes cut. Pop is currently using Finley as the shooter to spread the floor ... which is a role that Barry should be able to handle if Finley can't.
Between Finley and Barry, the Spurs only need one of them to show up in the playoffs. If they both fizzle out, then the Spurs will be in trouble. But I think chances are that one of them will have enough juice come playoff time.
Horry looked pretty good out there today. Yeah, he's had his worst regular season by far but he has a good tendency to put that behind him and play well in the playoffs. Horry's regular season stats never really are comparable to his playoff stats. He's one player who you can truly say the season starts anew for him once the bright lights start shining.
But yeah, if he's done, the Spurs have Oberto and Thomas. This year, for once, the Spurs can survive if Horry lays an egg. Both Oberto and Thomas are trustworthy enough to close out a playoff game. In the past, it's been Horry or bust. Even last year, Oberto didn't prove himself until the Jazz series.
The Spurs need rest, that's all.
Bull . Pure BS.
Ironically, this is a year you need HCA. Reason being that with all 8 teams in the West matched as evenly as they are, there is a much likelihood of any given series going 7 games, which is when the HCA actually comes into play...
Winning 3 straight series on the road is going to be tough for anyone. And it's actually 4 because BOS sure looks likely to come out of the East. Cassell might have just clinched them a ring.
i dont know who has the sig or why im ramblin' . i just dont think its time to doubt the spurs yet . the loss hurt bad but i owe the spurs too many good times to doubt them .
