The laker legacy. Spurs should strive for legendary status.
Do the Spurs even have one? I remember the glory days of Spurs VS Lakers.
But now I don't see anyone out there that can be a real nemesis,
can you?
Thanks

Mavericks
Suns
Pistons
None of these storylines are nearly as rich as the rivalry with the Lakers was, but that took quite a few seasons to develop. The only one of those teams that we have a real history with is the Mavericks, and I see this season ing things up even more along I-35 with the Pop/Avery and the NVE/MF factors thrown into the mix.
Houston and Miami might be able to juice up a rivalry, too, depending on what they do this season. The games against the Rockets were big tickets last year, and anywhere Shaq goes, a rivalry is sure to follow.
Maybe it will be anyone who knocks off the Spurs in the first round of the playoffs?
This just in: Dan Rather's on crack again.
Any team that MOUSE is behind!
Houston could be a very tough team this year.
Houston will be a bunch of badasses, i assure you that
Badasses?
Yao isnt that bad
tmac and stromile are going to be great together
They're good I just wouldn't use the word badass to describe them.
They look like a team of giant nerds. Yao looks like he's about to pull out his calculator and TMac looks like Urkle
I would say the Suns since we have met them twice in the playoffs the last 3 years, but until a western team other than the lakers beats the Spurs in the playoffs, its going be hard to call them a rival
Yao is supposed to have bulked up some over the offseason (wouldn't be hard). If he can play a bit tougher, that combined with their FA signings should make them a much more dangerous team.
Already got tickets to the Houston preseasoner. Finally get to see how big Yao looks in person.
That's one storyline that I'm really interested to see how it will pan out this year. Houston looks like a strong team on paper. We'll see if they can do anything with it.
Pacers.
Houston games are always tough, and we've never beaten them in the playoffs.
Steve Urkle? or Stephon UrKel
looks can be deceiving, they'll be very good this year
Miami. Because of Shaq and his 'guarantees.' Also because they're the anti-SA: trying to build a championship through 'stars', not hard work.
I do like Flash, though.
It will be Dallas , since you stole thier Billy Ocean.
Well, I would love for a revival of the Rockets rivalry, especially since that would be four games a year, two of which I might be able to attend! If the Pistons could maintain their team for a few years to come that would be great, but I don't think that Flip will be able to hold that team together like Larry. If Denver can develop some of their talent a little better maybe they could fill that billing.
Nope, a nemesis has to be someone who can actually beat you.
I see Dallas I see Houston
Indy and Detroit from the East
But I do not think that the Suns will be that strong. They lost the run ang gunners. What do U think D'Antoni will do with his last years system?
Detroit will be good enough woith their players but the coach will be eaten by the Wallaces
Indy with Granger and Jasikavicius (won't be great but good and thats might be it). Artest coming to the lineup even better than the last year. Jermaine best PF in Easter Konference if healthy will be a great danger.
The spurs alwayes had trouble playing against the Pacers...
dallas will have AJ for whole season (he is still learning the job but he has got tyhe potential to be a real good coach) They have got a great mix of players I see them in the secon spot in the West
The third belong to Rockets. JVG - all I need to say.

Pssssst! you may want to stop doing your homework long enough to ask your dad if he remembers what was the score the last time Spurs played the Mighty Mavericks,
Then again he may throw someting at you, so make sure your behind something before you ask him,
And be ready to have a pissed off father the rest of the week
McGrady and Yao is to much for San Antonio You may want to pick another team.
