    Pop's not that worried about...


    You see he's been here 4 times before, and playing perfect down the stretch of the regular season didn't do to help his team repeat 3 other times.


    Pop knows it.
    Duncan knows it.
    Tony knows it.
    Manu knows it.
    Horry knows it.


    You can't not know that after experiencing it 3 times....no matter how hard you try.
    Hey you forget to finish your first sentence, it stopped at about....

    Have you watched Championship DVDs of the Spurs? Listen to how Manu talks and Tony and them. They doubt. They worry.

    Why?

    Because SA plays with heart and they play personal. Every game is a must win and they play for glory, not money or ESPN highlights.

    You should know that man.

    Spurs lose and a topic like Spurs are fine is okay.

    Manu takes 2 ill advised shots in the last minute and his smells like roses around here.

    Nice.

    Not to defend whottt but I'd say Spurs fans have the advantage in trying to predict which Spurs teams are contenders and which Sprus teams will be exposed in the playoffs. As Spurs fans, we've seen many examples of both.

    Saying Spurs fans aren't qualified to offer up their opinion on this subject based on four successes and many more failures is a bit arrogant on your part. We've all seen this movie many times ... we are just trying to figure out how this one will end.
    He didn't say that.

    You're more than qualified. I absolutely never said otherwise. Trust me, I support your right to voice your opinion on here just as much as anyone.

    My point is that I'm just as qualified, as is anyone else who has watched the last decade of playoffs in their entirety.

    I think you are being overly optimistic. Your initial post was infused with a tone of trying to convince yourself that things will be just fine.

    As whott did, your only retort to my assertion there was that I "didn't know" championship ball cause I'm a Mavs fan. Sorry dude, but that's bull . I probably know just as much about the Spurs as you do, and that's not a knock on your knowledge, but a reminder that there are plenty of non-Spurs fans who know the Spurs, and championship basketball, very well.

    Is the season over?

    Are you saying they won't make the playoffs?

    It's Manu...ever see him play?

    Why laugh at that? I know you on here, you're more intelligent than that. That was a nonsensical strawman-esque retort on his part. Come on.

    They also didn't repeat...it's different this time.



    This is the first team to return basically it's entire championship.

    This thread is the life and blood of Spurstalk and it's an instant classic and in my favs now because we have hit a new high and low in all due respect with some folks today.

    LOL, yeah you say the same tired ass to anyone who calls you out on your stupid bull . You must have the record for "Most useless negative threads in the history of the board" 17,000 posts and about 10 of them were worth reading.

    Yeah 30 pts, a loss and Parker and Duncan wondering if he remembers how the spurs won in 2007.

    Getting it is not being too excited about or down on the Spurs' postseason prospects during the regular season.

    For the sixth time, I'll ask you to point out which lines in the original post you are speaking about specifically. Quit Dirking* around and answer the question.

    Thanks.

    Brutalis...after you get laid for the first time you'll understand better...there's nothing like the first time.


    Basically all previous Spurs championship teams have been rebuilt and started over from scratch, even Pop did this at the philosophical level...they performed similarly in the regular season, but they were more injury prone and underperformed in the post season.


    For once, they are actually playing like a team that remembers it won a championship last season...these games just aren't as big of a deal as they were last season.


    And it's not too hard to look at the past performance of repeat champions and see similar performances.


    Fact.




    For once this team remembers it's a champion...and that'll show up when it comes time to win the championship.


    And no matter how much you meltdown over it...this aint that time.

    Don't get me wrong. I will probably argue you in any other thread.

    But you have owned the table in this thread and you got props for that from me. I have learned that more Spur fans than I thought, have some kind of arrogant.. chip on the shoulder.. invincible thing going on and it pisses me off to no end.

    Maybe us getting owned by the good teams this year, the rotations, never ending problems every year in rebounding the damn ball.. maybe this is the scared, punch to the face SA needs to wake up.

    We can be beat, and we will be beat. Reality check for the 23094928374th time folks.

    I believe. But at the same time deal with the facts people.

    That has nothing to do with nothing.

    It's 2008, March 18th here. Live for today, not tomorrow, not last year.

    Like beating a dead horse saying, or, apples and oranges..

    I'll go ahead and apologize to you for my remarks earlier in the other thread. You're an alright guy.

    I'm sure timvp and whottt are too, but you're absolutely right that this whole thing reeks of unbridled arrogance.

    I don't think anyone in the Spurs organization is happy and content with what's going on right now whottt. You might, but I am quite in sure they aren't. So keep on with your optimism if that makes you happy. this don't work for me.

    Well what does work for you??? Believing they are dead when the season is not over yet. If the playoffs started today they are in, why give up when they still have a chance???

    I don't find many parts of Principia Mathematica very funny.

    And it wasn't "nonsensical strawman-esque", it was more "ad hominem Groucho-esque".

    Agree to disagree. It had nothing to do with anything and didn't accurately reflect the point of my position. That's a strawman.

    Like the reference, but just don't see why you'd think that was funny.
