    For some reason I can't put my finger on, I can't wait for this season to tip off. Four championships is pretty nice but I see another one out there. This is a great opportunity to get it.

    Perhaps it's because this roster is so sleek. Got rid of Beno Udrih and his uninspired play. Added a perfect Spur in Ime Udoka. Also added a couple exciting young players in Darius Washington and Ian Mahinmi.

    The biggest opponent is health. This roster is pretty old but if the Spurs can ward off the aging process for eight months, I like their chances.

    For some reason I am very excited about this season as well. I think its the whole "can they repeat" thing that has me excited. I want to see how Udoka and Bowen play together when the Spurs face someone like the Mavs or Suns.

    Yeah very much so. More than last year for some reason.

    You know what I would love to see is the Spurs go "Ape Sh*t Patriots" on everyone this season. Just give a big ol F.U. to the media and the league.

    I'm just excited to finally start the season. In all their le runs, Spurs have the best chance this time of repeating. Partially because their core players seem to have gotten better with age and mostly because it seems that last season especially they have begun to separate themselves from the many wanna-be's in the league.

    I also have a strange feel that Ginobili is going be even better than 2005 Ginobili this season....and that tells me all

    Good point by 1Parker1. This is the first time that Manu is going to start the fresh. He did not play any summer ball and that should help out a lot. In the past Manu always seemed to have an injury early in the season. I hope the rest this summer changes that.

    my whole body got hard when Tim mentioned repeat at the celebration. i don't know about you guys, but that said a lot about his intentions. his extension that he signed just added to that.

    On the contrary, this is the least compelling REGULAR season for me in a long while. I'd have to say unless DW gets some PT, not really sure what we're getting thats different from last year with the entire roster intact and a year older and probably slower.

    I'm counting the days until May with this squad. Regular season will be a snooze fest.

    If pre-season is any indication, there is no reason that we can't break the even-year curse.

    I'm also more excited than usual.

    This team is experienced, a word I prefer over "old", they seem to be hungry for the repeat rather than content as defending Champions.

    I like the little I've been able to gleam from training camp and interviews.
    They know how hard this season will be with the "target" on their backs.
    I expect a little "snooze fest." I expect to lose games that we should win.
    But come March I expect this team to be more than ready. Physically. Mentally.

    And Duncan will lead his team again through the playoffs to the Championship.

    Never been excited like that about a new season.

    The feeling is so good.

    The challenge so big.

    Everything is in place for a great scenario with ups and downs, pleasures and pains.

    The reward will be somptuous.

    Let's start the show.


    Come on! GO SPURS GO!!!

    Oh, God, yes. More excited than the last couple of seasons (though the last minute events with Beno and Tim and DWash have me really geared up). I'm so ready to get this started.

    I have a REALLY good feeling about this season. The way I see it, we've got a fantastic shot to repeat. We're only going to get better, barring injuries. And the upside is that if it doesn't happen - well, , of course not, it's an even year!

    Bring.It.On.
