    ... against the Top 4/5 in each conference, the probable playoff teams that really count in measuring quality.

    EC: Det, Orl, Chi, Cle

    WC: Dal, Phx, Uta, LAL, Hou

    ... the Spurs are: 4 - 5

    And we haven't played Det, yet.

    At best, Spurs can beat Jazz next week, and finish Nov/Dec 5 - 5.

    Given how tough the West is, the Spurs need to get a lot tougher.

    Last night, the Spurs didn't have an off night, (aka, "so what?").
    The Rockets knocked the Spurs off their feet, esp a lackadaisical Tim, and on their butts. It Tim would only gets as mad at his own play as he gets at the refs.

    And against these teams :
    Pistons : 6-1
    Magic : 4-2
    Bulls : 1-6
    Cavs : 1-4
    Mavs : 4-4
    Spurs : 4-5
    Suns : 2-5
    Jazz : 7-2
    Lakers : 6-4
    Rockets : 4-6

    So with what "really count in measuring quality" : The WCF should be Lakers against Jazz ?

    "The WCF should be Lakers against Jazz"

    strange logic there.

    If the Spurs and fans want to consider themselves, with evidence, to be better than or best of the the best, they need win more than the lose when playing the top teams.

    If the Spurs were 60-22 (0.733) against all teams ( a great season), I'd be happy if they were just 45 - 37 (0.549) against the top 4/5 teams in each conference.

    iow, 5-4 now instead of 4-5.

    No big deal now (as horribly/easily as Rox beat us), but losing to Jazz @ATT next week drops us to 4 - 6. I hope Tim bothers to show up and give some energetic, compe ive leadership.

    Yeah I also remember you posting some about downloading "We are the champions" on itunes after you guys were up 2-0 in the finals. But then you dropped four games to a very old heat team.

    Cheers indeed!

    The original point is accurate and not easily dismissed: SA is feasting on avg teams, struggling against the good ones. This is not a good sign, obviously.
    The recent losses against LA and Houston showed that SA is no longer a team that can shut off the paint at will. We're actually a team that is, position for position, not that tall and definitely not beefy. There is actually no burly rebounder/defender. Tim's pretty strong but he's a finesse player, Francisco's light, Oberto 's not a mixer. Everybody on the perimeter is light, also. Makes you wish for the days of DRob's one-man zone.
    OK, Yao's going to have his way against most players. But Bonzi out-muscled us, as did Odom, and lots of other guys. We just don't have anything like that old Twin Towers defense any more, not even close.
    We need size and strength inside. EDIT: this lack shows in our rebounding numbers as well.

    I also remember hearing mav fans saying last year's championship was over after a 2-0 game lead. Then you choked it away. That's why therapists make big money

    Man that was a great consolation prize after losing the way we did against the Mavs. I couldn't believe I was jumping up and down because the Heat just won it all.

    that and the post completely ignores the heat of last year and their atrocious record against the better teams. maybe it got better at the end of the year, but that's not what i remember. they stunk, particularly at the same time that the spurs are at now, and couldn't beat a contender team to save their lives. just goes to show you that maybe the season isn't as keen a predictor as it might seem.

    He's referring to this season not past seasons..

    Quit living in the past,

    This numbers are this season numbers.
    As an example and since you're a Mavs' fan : for Mavs, it's Mavs record this year against top teams.
    Mavs have 4 losses : Spurs, Rockets, Pistons, Jazz.
    and Mavs have 4 wins : Suns, Bulls, Spurs, Lakers.

    Check if you spelled it right.


    The funny thing.
    Spurs lost in 2nd round but have no other excuse (the fans) then the Mavs choke


    Pathetic, don't you think?
