I think the MIN, PHO and LAL games will be the toughest. Especially Minny since it's the end of a back-to-back.

The Spurs will now face a tough part of the schedule. They only face 2 opponenets with losing records going into the game with Golden State at home (tonight). Those 2 opponents are Golden State and a tough and improving Boston Celtics.
Is this a bellwether part of the schedule for the Spurs? Forecast their 10-game record.

Since it is still just the first half of the season, I'll say Spurs go 7-3. .700
There may be a sleeper in there, even though 6 are at the SBC Center.
9-1
They really shouldn't do worse than 7-3 (but they might). 7-3 is my prediction, but I'm hoping for 8-2 or better.
suns only scare me
but duncan still owns amare
tp should do better on nash this year
the spurs need to do a better job at defending the 3 against suns
and hopefully q richardson is off that night

8 - 2, but with crappy performances like last night, and the Spurs' habit this season of completely non-playing offense and defense for one fatal quarter, 7 - 3 is more likely.

I'll take my shot and say that they just loose in Portland.
suns have no bench
it is going to catch up to them
their backup point is the only person that can do something off the bench
I think the spurs can beat them
Sat 12/18 Golden State W
Wed 12/22 @ Orlando
Thu 12/23 Minnesota will go 1-1 in these two, which one I do not know
Sun 12/26 Boston W
Tue 12/28 Phoenix W
Thu 12/30 @ Portland
Fri 12/31 @ L.A. Clippers - will go 1-1 again
Sun 1/2 @ Sacramento W blowout for SA
Tue 1/4 L.A. Lakers W blowout again
Thu 1/6 Indiana W blowout
A 8-2 record is good.

jim they play in az the 21 of jan I am going to be getting tickets soon
Bring it on Beatches!!
8-2...I'm calling it!
8-2
10-0
9-1
I like your optimism, Kori
8-2. I think they will lose in Orlando, and I also think they will lose to either Minn. or Pho. although I can see them beating both of them but then dropping a game on the road. I think the 2 losses will come on the road.
8-2
I had not seen Kori's prediction but I agree also:
Out on a limb hard = 10 and 0 as it has been a long time when Spurs were not in a game at end and it is about time for Horry, Barry and Rasho to upgrade.
This team could win them all easily and worst case = 8 and 2.
MadDoc
6-4
