Inside the Numbers: It's not over yet

F it. I give up.

Let's get this thing done.

Spurs win the championship. You're bwned timvp. In your face.

Inappropriate Smear.

I have to confess one more time that I was very sure this sucky team was not getting past the second round. Duncan sucked, Oberto was a joke, the Spurs didn't try hard, the Spurs had no back up point guard, the Spurs wouldn't make a big trade.

Yet here they are again winning a le on what still feels to me like a patchwork team. Oberto's not a starting center on a championship team to me, but he is playing very good within the framework of this team. Jacque Vaughn gets away with being on a NBA court for however many minutes Pop wants to dangle the game in front of the other team. Pop also keeps playing with fire by squeezing every minute of rest for Tim Duncan. Manu has been beaten down to the point where he only has his magic powers every once in awhile. Bowen continues to age, but like Stockton and Malone on the Jazz, strangely improves.

The team to me was never really that good, but I'm starting to find out, I really don't know that much about Pop and the Spurs. I thought they had to make a trade.

Still, I'd like to see some progression in the off season.

Welcome to the world of CIA Pop. Plus it's an odd year.

Yeah, it would be nice to package the low first and high second round draft choice (+Beno ) to move up in the draft or trade for someone (ha!). Some young athleticism would be good to have.

It's all over but the number of the game. No way we lose four in a row to the CAVS.

I don't care if its a sweep, but it would be nice to get this trash series over.

Well, it's an old cliche, but "Never underestimate the heart of a Champion" must surely come to mind with the way this team has gone about their business this year. It's more like they have "willed" their way to this point. I have maintained all along that they are all pissed for letting one get away last year, and that has kept them focused on this year. To think, they could be going for a 3peat right now. That one foul looms larger than ever.
