I know I believe, I have since the first dismantling of the Lakers. Last night just reinforced the obvious.
Didn't you call the Lakeshow contenders?

Yes, they still are. They very well could get to the WCF
I pray this everyday.
I'm an original spurs pessimist..but dude.....I'm starting to believe....
Can't believe I just said I believe.....
"Indeed, sir - the last ride of Wyatt Earp and His Immortals". Somebody needs to make a good Photoshop out of this:
u cant start to see it in the players eyes- they believe
I think our advantage is chuck Barkley believes in the Spurs. Last year, he predicted Spurs, Lakers & The Heat to fall. I'm sure there were other teams but I tried to tune him out after Grizzlies beat us.
Last year they started off hot and slowly sputtered to a first round exit. This year, they started off so-so, and are now (hopefully) hitting that next gear for the Playoffs. You can bet your ass I Believe...

Damn that's sweet
Let's get this.
OK, so let me get this straight......Dallas and the Lakers were tougher opponents for the Thunder because they had "playoff experience and championship moxey!" Ha!
The Lakers were the defending champs last year and got swept, same for the Mavs this year. Those weren't the same teams that won the chip! Their record says so and their performance on the floor farther validates that. They lost close games that a "championship" squad would've at least won a few of those games. What the Rockets did with the, "Never underestimate the heart of a champion!" was the exception not the rule! You play crappy in the regular season, you're a crappy team. That's why it's an upset when a good team gets beat by a lower seed, except for a 4-5 matchup.
According to this logic, teams shouldn't play for a better seed to get favorable matchups, the NBA should take the eight teams and do a "seeding lottery!" The Suns had veterans and experience when they went to Utah for that playoff spot and Utah won that game! How's that for your argument?
We blew teams out in the regular season.....We did it in the playoffs! The Thunder play close games because they're jumpshooters and they haven't figured out, (or can't), blow teams outta the building! We can!!!!
This is gonna be a pretty good series. Not because they've played close games and we haven't, it's because these are the two best teams in the West! Spurs in five!!!
Let's do this . 8 more wins.
^Better to say 1 more win, 8 times.
At the risk of being a naysayer, I think it's still possible that the Spurs lose a game this postseason. I'd hate to see that happen, honestly. Other than that, I BELIEVE!!!!!!!
I see no reason to believe this is a "last stand". I think Tim can play at a very high level for at least another year or to. Think about Kareem and The Mailman who played at a high level all the way through their 30's.
Tony JUST turned 30 and likely has a couple years before he begins to show any noticeable signs of age. Manu's role will likely diminish with each passing year, but he'll still be a big asset for a couple more years.
I don't think we'll see a huge drop off over the next year or two in the performance of the big-3. To whatever small degree that trio does decline next year & the year after, the Spurs will need commensurate improvement from their younger talent, which is not an unreasonable expectation.
