the Jazz??? not gunna happen.
I would like to see the Utah Jazz make it, and hopefully win it all. They are a hard nosed team, with some great players. The Lakers are looking good as well. Kobe is incredible to watch.

Have the Mavs played the Jazz yet?
If not Spurs then Golden State or New Orleans.
The Mavs will win it all if the Spurs fail to reach the Finals.
That's what they said last year, but Mavericks choked it away. Heat didn't win based on talent but how they played in the final four games.
Anyway, I think that Utah could make it all the way but it'd be another "fluke surprise team" scenario.
If the Spurs don't make the Fianls, Pop should be fired.
Too much talent and a closing window are not a good combination for an underachieving coach.
Other than Phil Jackson or Pat Riley or an improving AJ, who's better than Pop? Seriously. You can complain about the lack of decent shot-blocking or poor shooting so far from some of the key bench players, but coaches have to learn what they have and what combinations are going to work. The best time to find that out is early. The season is young.
Think.
If dallas make the finals they will win it all, they did choke last year but they are more experienced this time around and have a better team than last season. Not just by who they added in the off-season but quite a few players like harris and howard got better. mainly howard.
adding guys like
Johnson
Croshere
George
Buckner
were very good moves, nothing huge but added good role players.
dallas will beat whoever comes out of the east. Only detroit could give them problems IMO.
I agree. If the Spurs for some crazy reason don't make it to the Finals, I think Mavs have a better chance of winning it all this season. The East is looking a little weaker again, compared to the West. Miami is way too unhealthy, and I'm not sure Wade will have it in him to carry the team to another championship after playing straight through the summer. Magic are looking great, but they're a little young and inexperienced. Pistons are good, but their bench is too weak and I'm still not sold on Flip Saunders. Cavs and Bulls (if they get their act together) are really the only teams I can see making it to the Finals and having a chance to beat whoever comes out of the West.
Either way, it's waaaaaaaaay too early in the season to be guessing and underestimating the Spurs. I stil have my money on them
then I could care less about anyone else.
nah, if the spurs dont make it, it'll be the Bulls vs. Blazers, a classic
stupid mavs are chokers!
Likely or not, I'd want the Clippers to represent the West.
If the spurs don't go, the mavs go, and vice versa
if the mavs do make it this year, I think they win it because of what they learned from last year.
But if neither teams make it, I'd like to see Melo take a shot at the le.
They wont make it unless AJ quits or we dont stay healthy. The west comes down to the Mavs then everybody else!!
I can't believe fans are already speculating on the Spurs demise. It's like people can't wait to jump ship.
if the spurs dont win it all, im lookin for a new team to barry for in the future
lol, you sound like my ten year old nephew, he didn't even wait to see what happens this season with the spurs, he jumped ship to the rockets before the season started, which is weird since nash has been his favorite player ever since leaving the mavericks...i'm just waiting for him to jump back to being a spurs fan once he realizes they will probably play the mavs in the playoffs
that's asking a lot.
Win or lose... ring or not... the Spurs will always be my team.... Im kind of looking forward to the day when we are rebuilding so all the drama queens and suicide watch people leave this board for another team.
We may not have back-to-back but, and correct me if Im wrong, arent we the only team brought in from the ABA to ever win a le... never mind 3?
Interesting thread. I wouldn't think any hardcore Spurs fan would ever want the Utah Jazz to win a le.
I'd want the Clippers to win if the Spurs couldn't.
the way the clippers playin lately, they will be lucky to even make the playoffs...
I didn't say they'd make the playoffs or have a chance at the le. I just said they are the only team that I'd want to win a le, other than the Spurs.
