Scraping by teams lately or losing altogether, and nobody reliable outside of Kawhi. Can't get past the second round if this version of LMA is your second best player on paper.

One of those win-win threads for such a poster. They go all the way you are happy. They lose, you feel like you are smart and intelligent. Never really understand this.
Just telling it like it is, can't guard opposing guards in a conference full of them for crap.
Stop being such a got OP. It's one game
Lamarcus just came back from a health scare and the team is missing 2/3 of their point guard rotation. Bunch of bunnies missed. Portland playing for its playoff lives. Spurs played better tonight than the Warriors did last night, but opposite results.
This has been the trend all season, this team has some serious flaws. Kawhi has been bailing us out, but outside of him you can't count on anyone to consistently show up. Kawhi and a bunch of spare parts isn't going to cut it.
Maybe. To me it'll go either way, or they win big or they lose big and early...
They missed about 10 layups. About 10 unforced to. They be alright.
Is this the knee-jerk reaction thread of the night, tbh?
This and the game thread.
We are supposed to go 82-0 or we're a first round exit/pretender.
This team is a 2nd round exit, shocked at how many Spurs fans think they can beat the Rockets in 5 (not you, but others).
Houston will sweep us if we are lucky enough to get past the first round. Needed that 1 seed to have any chance of doing anything this playoffs...They it away tonight.
Meh, lost to a desperate regular season try hard team that needs the 8th seed. If anything I'm not sold on Aldridge even more than ever. He just reeks too much of small time player and now he's past his prime.
Your are telling it from your typical suicide perspective. It's been the same story for you the last several years. Whenever the spurs lose "They are garbage". When they win you jump back on the bandwagon. Just have to say your coping mechanism with losing is re ed. Go get some Prozac.
All jokes aside, the Spurs are completely dead in the backcourt, and Danny only showing up on one side of the ball is going to kill us. LMA is trash and Gasol and Lee are the only bright spots during this stretch.
We'll beat the Rockets but not the Clippers or Cavs.
Most people haven't been fooled by them all season, so exposed isn't the right word. But yeah, they're not get good as their record or point differential and I have no confidence in them being an elite team (Warriors, Cavaliers, Rockets and I'm still including Cavaliers) and aren't even overly confident in them beating the Thunder or Grizzlies.
This season is different, while I think the gap was always bigger between the Warriors/Spurs last year than people realized, this year's team is probably the second worst of the decade for the Spurs after 2011.
Spurs don't need to be crucified because of that, but it is very difficult to have faith in a team that scrapes by and relies on one player to carry the load all the time. Spurs have absolutely no margin for error.
I think they'll beat Memphis, and OKC could go 6 games. But this team just can't step on an opposing team's throat and put the game away. I also think they are a layup drill far too often.
Let's see what happens, but I agree with you.
Insofar that they rely on LMA, there's the exposure.
But what other choice do they have? The Spurs are counting on LMA being a reliable contributor, and he doesn't have the stuff.
I think it's pretty obvious that the team doesn't believe he can get it done, but hey, keep pounding the rock.
One game after LMA's heart scare -- definitely blow up the team.
It's funny how spurs have a great record vs the top teams but the losses to inferior compe ion (something spurs have always done) elicits all thesecond round fodder
talk tbh
