cant agree with you on that one..i watch all the games..if its a game we are gonna blow a team out in, i watch for the individual performance (manu) or to see the new guys (ian and washington) do good..
Not because Spurs would be a boring team as many claim.
I love to watch them...
They are simply TOO GOOD. If they loose they usually just did not put in enough effort...
With other words...only games that would really mean something now in terms of being really interesting are:
a ) phoenix (beating the out of them)
b ) boston (to see how we match against them and of they are for real...)
c ) PLAYOFFS (Spurs fan good times)
Funny thing is that after every Spurs game i am most interested in Washingtons and Ian's stats
Imagine Spurs being in the east... it would be simply sad. But things are simply not compe ive enough despite being in by far the strongest division and in a much stronger conference...
I swear... sometimes i just wish Spurs going on a 3 game loosing streak just to feel alive again
25 coaches and teams out there who cant put any decent resistance!!!

sweeping our way to the ring
and these are the clowns i want our to beat on the way
mavs, suns, rockets, boston
, this is the time to really get into the games. A team this deep and good doesnt come along often and if you dont live in SA you should find whatever ways possible to watch some games.
I can never get enough of the Spurs winning games! I love watching our machinery grind down the inefficient and poorly organised...
The guys already look like they are in post All Star form. And so damn deep.
This is going to be a fun season for Spurs fans despite all the dire predictions made by many when Scola and Butler were sent down I10.
I so feel the same way! Watching those other teams against our boys reminds me of the team in "Rebound"!
i think we'll be dominant till repeat party... it looks it'll be that way if Manu keeps this up... i love him playing just 18 min and getting 21 points and i love TD measuring his pace AS EVER... Horry will get his 8th almost without seeing the floor...
Really, they are boring, old and dirty. oh! i'm onNot because Spurs would be a boring team as many claim.

They are a good old wine! And far from boring to watch... Ginobili is imo one of the most fun players in the NBA to watch play!
BUT... they are so damn dominant year after year that there is not much at stake before playoffs
In prior years, I lived and died with every Spurs reg season win or loss, and I noticed that Lakers fans seemed bored with the regular season, well, now I have become a Laker like fan. I do not really care if the Spurs lose regular season games...all that matters is the playoffs.
The Spurs need to just finish in top 4 in the Western Conference so they get HCA in rd one, after that all that matters is the playoffs and winning ring number 5.
I am bored too.
I cant help myself being a little bored... anyone else?
Try to put your balls in the microwave, for sure is sth hot
I'm with you. I can't go with that line of thinking either. I watch ALL the games, too. Overall, I watch the way the team gets out in transition, half-court offensive sets, defensive rotations. fundamentals (boxing out, holding positions), rebounding. It's a great delight watching the marquee player(s) from the other team. Of course, watching Bowen attempt to shut down the opponent's best perimeter scorer is always a treat.
It's also fun watching the "game within the game". Is there trash talk going on? Are the Spurs frustrating their opponent to the point where they're taking "cheap shots"? The usual banter that takes place at the FT line. The coaching maneuvers and subs ution patterns.
I admit it's somewhat difficult to remain interested during a blowout, but there are so many other things to concentrate on. However, there are lots of other things to keep a Spurs fan interested.
i wouldn't say i'm bored...but i am surprisingly calm when watching games versus prior years. i don't run the gamut of emotions when we're down versus a team. and when lost against houston, i was like...oh well. in years past, i think i would have blown a gasket.
i like this feeling of serenity. but come playoff time, i'll be a bundle of exposed nerves again
Go Spurs

That's it exactly! My emotions don't flucuate as much until there is a big game against a major contender (DAL, PHX, DET and now BOS).i wouldn't say i'm bored...but i am surprisingly calm when watching games versus prior years. i don't run the gamut of emotions when we're down versus a team. and when lost against houston, i was like...oh well. in years past, i think i would have blown a gasket.

The Spurs do operate with a machine-like precision that is almost flawless in execution. They DO make it look easy at times.
I expect the Spurs to again lead the league in that all-important statistic of point differntial. Some experts call that stat the TRUE indicator of a potential NBA championship team. In most every year, the statistical league leader has won the NBA championship a surprising number of times.
Of course, the Spurs lead the league in that category last year. For the record, the Boston Celtics are leading the NBA in that category to date = +16.60.

Darn, Spurs fans are spoiled ! Well, it's their favorite team's fault, for being so good, precise, and deadly.
The next few games will be a pretty decent test, whether they're really THAT dominant.

You're a Spurs fan. How could you not be bored?
BTW, kudos to your Blazers for knocking off the Mavs on Sat night.You're a Spurs fan. How could you not be bored?
They looked pretty good - even without Oden.
You guys will be very, very scary next year.
Not really. When it's the regular season you want to see the new guys play as much as possible. I want to see just how much we have improved by bringing these guys in.
As good as Boston looks, I'd say a meeting with them in the Finals is in the cards, provided both teams stay healthy.
Detroit is 2nd and we're 3rd, if I remember right. But we're also allowing the 2nd fewest PPG in the league this year. Our trademark defense appears to be getting back into the swing of things.
It's OK to dream.
I realize we're putting the "cart before the proverbial horse", but a meeting between those two teams would be SWEET! Probably as good or better than the 2005 NBA Finals versus Pistons.
I love them blowing out teams by the end of the 3rd and getting to watch an entire 4th qtr of the reserves.
Last time I was really exicted for a regular season game was in 2003-2004 Nov. 11 Spurs vs Lakers (Fab 4). Timmy and Tony were out and we went into overtime against them with Manu and the reserves leading the way.
Also, that double OT game in 2005 against the Suns.
We aren't even 10 games in yet. The games coming up this week (LA, Dallas, Houston) should be good.
