Chris Broussard "Spurs won't make The Playoffs"

[Leetonidas]

I agree. As long as Murray comes back and plays decently and White continues to improve, Spurs have a pretty deep roster. Spurs have go 12 deep at least imo. Our real problem is our 1 and 2 are soft and play an archaic style and some of the guys who should be the 11th and 12th men are the 6th or 8th (Mills/Belinelli)

Most teams will have a slow start?

Actually yes: last year after 18 games, the 8th seed in the west was 10-8, now it is 8-9.

Although I guess your -right- point was I was mistaken thinking that because many teams changed a lot during the summer '' Most of them will have a slow and/or complicated start so it is reasonable to expect several wins for SA off the gate. That will probably be enough to secure once again a PO spot.''

Clearly it wasn't the case. Others are trying to take some advantage of the situation (see Suns now 8th), not the Spurs.

They were a 7th seed due to a load of injuries and a completely new roster.


but yeah they’re so why bother watching.

Ok, and now what's the excuse for the Spurs being the 13th seed?

imagine being so bad that chris brousard finally gets something right.

the annual spurs won't make the POs take... it would not be an offseason without tbh..

One of these latest years they were bound to be right.

I am positive about the Spurs making the playoffs unless injuries decimate them but injuries can decimate anybody.

They may not have the highest ceiling, but also don't have the lowest currently and can even surprise some media that doesn't really follow them bc they have some promising less hyped up talent bc Pop hides them in the Gleague for a time and they need to get over themselves first etc. They add depth this season which helps win games in the regular season. I truly don't think they will miss the playoffs, what happens afterwards tho, that's the question.

Now, should they miss the playoffs, they need to reexamine that LMA-Demar core tbh.

Well, gulp!
I was way too positive it turns out.
But even in there I said if they did miss the playoffs they need to re-examine their core.

Whats amazing is that without really knowing how the season would turn out, I referenced Pop hiding youngins in the Gleague. If only I had known to what degree.

Our record for the last 10 games is the 3rd worst in the whole NBA.

Our record for the last 10 games is the 3rd worst in the whole NBA.

Spurs are 1-9 over their last 10 games. So is Atlanta. They are tied for worst 10-game streaks in the league.

Hard to say what it will take to make the playoffs in the West this season. It's hard to even think about .500, when the team is 1-9 in their last 10 games.
