We were up 20 in Game 1, up 17 in Game 5, won Game 3, got screwed in Game 4...we outplayed the Lakers last year in the playoffs, they just happened to get the right calls at the right times. I'm not concerned about the Lakers at all.
Looking at this team and the other teams in the West makes me think that you guys can win it all this year. The West just doesn't seem to be very good this year, teams like Houston and Utah are plagued with injuries. The Hornets Suck (F The Hornets), Portland is a upcoming team but they still need more time in my honest opinion. Denver, Dallas and Phoenix are very inconsistent and sometimes they seem to be in disarray. This Spurs team has it all, the mental toughness is there, You have Good coaching by Pop. Tim, Tony and Manu always are able to step up their games in big moments. The Challenge to me is the Lakeshow, can you guys beat the Lakeshow in a 7 game series? I honestly don't know, many Spurs fans seem to be confident that with a healthy Manu they can beat the Lakers.
If everyone can stay healthy and you can get good contributions from your key role players- Finley, Hill, Mason, Bonner, Thomas, you should be able to win versus the Lakeshow. It wont be easy of course but I think it is highly possible, the players have to all try to consistently get better during the Reg Season and when the playoffs come around kick some tail. Good Luck!

That was without Bynum.
If he is out again this year, the Spurs have a slight chance to beat them.
we also got screwed by the scheduling.
We are still a piece away IMO. We still need another defencive big to complete our defencive lock down.
That being said though. Without one we still have a small shot but we would have to be banking on either the Spurs playing a perfect game our that certain opponents play a bad game.
Any team can say oh we were up 10-20 at some point in the game. Basketball is a game of runs. It doesn't mean anything that the Spurs were up big after 1 quarter or 2 quarters. They couldn't sustain that effort for the entire game and therefore lost.
No way pathetic homers...Houston takes the western conference this year...the chemistry between Yao, Artest and McGrady is matched by none...of course my Suns could still take it if Amare finally shows the league how much of a defensive genius he really is

Healthy Bynum=Lakers win in 6
Non-Healthy/No Bynum=Spurs win in 7
With or without Bynum..the Lakers still win hands down...
Dumbass!
Just look at last year outcome!
Yeah, with the Spurs age and difficuties in back to backs, Stern is going to experiment with back to backs in the Western Conference Finals.
Do you guys even watch the lakers play? Odom plays so much better starting w.o Bynum. Lakers actually look awesome without bynum, ball movement looks better odom is crashing the boards, and picking up easy points, which translates into him being more aggressive, he has been getting 15+ rebounds, and looks unstoppable. I can wait for bynum to come back and kill some chemistry.
this is actually a bad sign in the playoffs. means lakers turned it on and killed us whenever they wanted.
But this year is totally different. Spurs are hungrier and we have better role players. Not to mention we will hopefully be healthier and not coming from that brutal series vs. NO. We still need to improve on D and maybe a missing piece to put us over the Lakers though
You won't get past the Lakers...Stupid !
On second thought...maybe the spurms will beat the Lakers...Stupid !

Will the Suns get past the regualr season?
no the lakers have way to much depth. we are one ing piece away it can't be stated enough.
Give me a break about the scheduling thing.
It's the playoffs.
On the Pro side: It's an odd year!
On the Con side: It will be odder still if the Spurs do it with no front-court defender other than Duncan.
Who was the front-court defender with Duncan in 2007?On the Pro side: It's an odd year!
On the Con side: It will be odder still if the Spurs do it with no front-court defender other than Duncan.
