You got that right Budkin!

Game 7 is anything but a given.
agree.....just wish the spurs had won tonight for rest for the 2nd round![]()
Also refs helped them big time tonight! Bogus BS calls for them all night!
Don't question the coach of the century.
Hey look on the bright side, We have Jeff Ayres
Who gives a about moral defeats? Win game 7. Enjoy the couple days of rest and win game 1 against whoever you play. For all the talk about how mentally soft some of our players are, they don't hold a candle next to many of us on this board. Leave the tears (hopefully of joy) once the playoffs are actually over, not before a game 7.
It's the playoffs. The West is loaded. Look at the other series.
Seriously. People need to go rub one out or something. Jesus.
In case you aren't aware, Duncan is 38 years old and Manu is a couple months away from being 37...oh and Parker's dealing with various "maladies" so a couple days of rest does jack against a young, fast, and highly-athletic 2nd round team. It's not something to gloss over.
If we won and Portland wins game 1 would have been Sunday anyways.
No kidding. This board acts like a playoff loss is the end of the world. We played for home court advantage throughout the regular season for this very reason. If we lose a game 7 at home, that certainly sucks, but a game 6 loss at Dallas is not the end of the world. You'd think that most Spurs fans would be immune to adversity after 6.
So in your opinion we have no chance to get through the rest of the playoffs anyway so what does one more game matter?
How about we cross that bridge when we come to it. Come to think of it, Duncan was 37, and Manu was a couple moths away from being 36 last year against a "young, fast, and highly-athletic 2nd round team" last season and we still found a way to beat the Warriors.
I'm not glossing over anything, just not ing and moaning over a loss on the road. Let's go win game 7.
Sure, the Thunder will play a crippled Grizzlies team without one of their best players in Game 7 AT home. The Clippers look inspired to win as much as they can in the face of Sterling's antics and will likely blow out a crippled Warriors team in Game 7 AT home. And then you have a 4 vs. 5 matchup that is always tough but this time, the winner will be a faster, younger, and more athletic team whom we have had trouble against. We were the only team facing a team we had won 10 games in a row against and now we're facing them in a Game 7 at a basketball court where the Mavs blew us the out in Game 2. It simply should not have gone to this point. Oh and we have a well-do ented history of playing poorly in day games, which we'll have to do on Sunday.
Game 1: Dallas was up 10 in the 4th. They just choked it.
Game 2: Legit win.
Game 3: Carter 3.
Game 4: Ellis choked the game tying lay-up that would've forced OT.
You can make a case that they should've swept us. This series really could go either way.
No, I'm not saying we don't have a chance but we've made things that much harder against us. I thought our margin for error was HUGE but it's turned out not to be the case. We need to take advantage of any chance to rest our aging core.
Well, then, you might as well not even watch. Good grief.
I really don't know what the to say....
Don't watch then.
No, to lose in Round 1 vs. and 8 seed a year after being within seconds of a Championship le would be inexcusable and the fact that it's gone 7 is alarming, that's all.
If we lose..we lose no other lost will hurt more than gm 6....tbh...spurs leave it all on the court....
Again, I'm not giving up, just listing the huge obstacles in front of us, which we can't just gloss over.
