We could beat the Warriors healthy, but we weren't healthy enough to beat them this year. At least getting beaten in the first round has given us a couple months extra rest, much needed after 3 deep playoff runs with the same group.
Too bad we had to draw the Clips first...![]()

Never again will the media / league office hope the Spurs fall out of the playoffs early. Three game sweep - Houston might as well not even show up for game four.
I'm more annoyed that we lost to a team that couldn't even close out on a 3-1 lead against the lolckets
It was partially that Blake Griffin started to wear down, and the Clippers bench sucked. They played great against the Spurs and made a lot of shots. Teams change from one round to the next, and it's all about match-ups.
Yep, this was the year to make it to the conference finals...and then the Knicks/Irving/Pelicans/Swaggy P happened.
!!!!!!!!!!!
We weren't beating this Warriors team, tbh..
A Porky vs Curry matchup would have been extremely embarrassing for the Spurs franchise, tbh..
Agreed. We would be getting our asses kicked too.
We would have lost. Heck we struggled to beat them in 2013, and that was with home court, and they were injured (both Curry and Thompson).
They would have beaten the Spurs, maybe in 7, but the heartbreak woulda been worse.
Im glad we got bounced early, gives the guys two extra months to rest. Go win it in 2016, maybe.
lol "should"
No it shouldnt be the SPurms, the SPurms lost in the 1st round
If the Spurms were good enough to be in the WCF they would be there
gots
Thompson was hurt?no, he's just a playoff choker fortunate to have Curry..
We would of lost to them the way we played this year.
Series would of gone to six though...
^^^^^^ This, they looked good out there until they pulled that crap. We out choked the choking ass Clippers, that is what bothers me the most. When they were up 3-1 I said yeah they are legit and no shame in losing to them this year, then they turn into the playoff chokers they are the next series.
Sure, we would've lost to the Warriors. But is there any team in the NBA that would've had a better shot at beating them than us? Remember that the Spurs, at their peak this season, beat them by 30.
Spurs own thr warriors. Curry rarely if ever goes off on the Spurs. He shoots a lower percentage and takes fewer shots against the Spurs.
It's all about matchups. Fortunately for them, they got to avoid us this yr. Like in 07, you can say we lucked out not having to face the Mavs again....
They should have thanked the Clippers for taking the Spurs out in the first round like the Spurs thanked the Warriors in '07.
Once the Spurs got eliminated, Warriors got comfortable because aside from Tony Allen, nobody was touching Steph Curry. The Spurs elimination made every team breath a huge sigh of relief, even though we had Porker on the team
WTF
the Spurms weren't good enough to win the 1st round
"should, would, if "
Spurs Fans![]()
No more tortillas, please.
Honestly whoever wins the championship would have no chance at beating the 2014 Spurs, but the 2015 Spurs weren't near as good, injuries and a lack of motivation did this team in.
