Wow tough schedule on road at end - This is a tough call, will Spurs play hard throughout vs. the Washingtons and the like? If they keep their strong play could sweep strong teams and make a statement (Suns, Sac x 2 - with one home game, and Dallas).
Most likely, they will lose 1 of those by a close margin probably to Sacremento = they always give Spurs some trouble. They will lose 1 more to a athletic team (either Clipps or Washington) that they should beat if had to bet on it. Predict they blowout win over Houston especially as Pop lets Spurs play. Will beat Suns but that game will be much closer. Team they most need to beat is Dallas to lock up head to head tie breaker as Dallas as played strong to stay 3 back in loss column followed by Suns as want to stay in their rearview mirror coming up fast!
Prediction 11-2 (10 and 2 rest of way)

12-1 loss to Phoenix in Phoenix.
THey will want revenge, plus the Spurs will be due for a bad game by then.
The way the Spurs are playing, they shouldn't drop any of those games.
12-1
Go Spurs
& I was accused of being a homer on last 10 game post = but you all may be right & I hope actually you are that predicted 12 or 13 wins.
Anything 11 & 2 and/or better will be uva month and I do agree that 12 and 1 or even 13 and 0 is possible.
Most importantly, is the timing of wins = beating Suns, Dallas and Sonics would be huge.

If I were Pop, I'd make it the "January challenge", something to focus on, to chase PHX for NBA best record. None of this "it's just another game" BS. Winning is so much more fun, esp when the wins are difficult and instructive. Spurs know how to win, have all the tools for wining it all. They need to focus how not to lose, how to find a way to win when a loss is bearing down on them.
Lets all pray your right... We haven't had a streak like a couple we had last year...like the 14+ streak after the -4 one.... It was early in the season, but somehow we got a better record now..
scratch that.
The thing that would get us all those wins would be if TIM DUNCAN....gets his minutes for the second half of the season... atleast 3 minutes more than average.. That would be huge for his stats, teamates, and Pop.
pop wouldn't have to worry, teamates don't have to do as much work, and he would feel more confident in attacking like he used to.
Overall I think Spurs will go 11-2 if they continue this way.
11-2
That would put us @ 39-9
Not bad!

12-1. I think Seattle will be San Antonio's Milwaukee this year - they can't out shoot jump shooting teams. But Seattle will fall to 4 or 5 in the playoffs and be out in the first round, never to face the Spurs, who will be 1 or 2, so it won't matter.

12-1. They lose to Seattle again.
I believe debating more about this that motivated Spurs sweep both games (barely over Suns, but Sonics with a statement game) on road but lose 1-2 others games somewhere along the way. Biggest game actually of all is vs. Dallas on Friday - must win!
MadDoc
Why must win over Dallas?
Because Dallas is right on SA's ass and they are hot hot hot lately, that is why.
Since Jason Terry was put in starting lineup at the PG, Dallas has been unbeatable, that is why.
10-3
