Nope they just need Pop's annual soft speech routine.
It's a legitimate question. Perhaps their window of opportunity is now closed? They had a nice run after all. They won 2 legitimate championships over a 9 year span. Not bad.![]()

I hope this stretch shows the value of smallball.
for a legitimate re
spurs are done, put the fork in them, the first half of the regular season is the sole determinant of the franchise's future
It's a little early to say they are done. They are definitely not playing what I would call Spurs Basketball, but I would never say they are done. It's a long season and there is no need to panic after only 34 games. It's not like we are in last place. We will get it done and our team will come together at the right time. If you are a true Spurs fan, you know how to ride the ups and downs of the season and know that in the end, our team will rise to the top.
off and go die in a hole.
I thought you were better than cheap asterisk shots.![]()
It's January. Let's talk in April
You know, Karma is going to with you tlong.
The only legitimate question posed in this thread is whether or not tlong has officially become a garden variety troll.
is oden done? he hasn't played a single NBA game yet and he's already deep fried to a crisp.
the one that you stick the butt into the ground.![]()
I need to start bookmarking these threads and bumping them after the Spurs are holding up another Larry O' Brien Trophy.
It already did. Isn't Oden like 500 pounds now?
Thank you.
I don't know what's worse tonight, the trolls or the Spurs fans heading for the ledge.
This team does this every year. They go through stretches of playing horribly.
Then comes the RRT, and no matter what the win/loss record is on the trip, they come out a team on the same page.
Then comes SPAM.
By the Playoffs they're playing some of the best ball in the league.
I think because they play so well at the end of the season that it's easy to forget how rough the road is to get there.
I believe in this team. I believe they, especially Duncan, want the repeat.
And I believe they can get there.
There will be more losses. There will be games they play horribly.
But when it matters they will be focused, driven, and heading for the Finals.
I thought they were "done" about this time last year?
amen to that.
You would blow David Stern repeatedly if he could somehow bestow one of those "illegitmate" championships on your FAILBlazers, Tbong.
probably. I'm giving up.
Seriously.
No really, I am.
You don't watch them much, do you. We have SPAM every year, when they come to life, but before that, we have the dreaded January Collywobbles. It happens EVERY ING YEAR. You're excused for not knowing about it, not being a Spurs fan, but the ledge jumpers should know better.
The annual tradition lives on
it seems as though the spurs are done.....we all heard it tonight......pops has only one thing left on his mind....the only thing rotting his mind and team away.....
thank you budweiser, you king of beers you, thank you
Glad to see I'm not the only one not headed for the shower rod.
It's like I said in the Game Blog, these games should be like a rite of passage to Spurs fans at this point. Anybody who has been following this team through the Duncan Era should know and be used to this.
Sure, it sucks to watch them play bad. It's never satisfying to watch your team lose games.
But this is how teams figure things out. This is where the forging happens. A little humility can go a long way in this League, and there has never been a Spurs Championship Squad that wasn't humbled at least a couple times. Teams don't get better by never facing adversity; they just don't know how to react when they are forced to. (Ask the 06-07 Mavericks)
If anything, this is the fuel Pop has been waiting for. We, as fans, should be glad that our yearly routine is as consistent as it is. Not to mention the results it has yielded.
Until someone has this team facing elimination and up against it, I tend not to worry too much. And that hasn't treated me TOO bad over the last ten years.
