This game reperesents a two game swing in the standings between the Spurs/Lakers since the Spurs already lead 2-1 head to head and the Lakers have the better conference record. I'm already looking forward to it!
The defending Champs going up against the hot young Lakers
Sunday April 13, 2008 the two best teams in the NBA will meet.
If both teams are healthy and the race for home court is still close, O what a game it will be.

Dallas and Phoenix are no longer a concern for the Spurs. The biggest concern for the Spurs in the west is the Lakers.
This is real close to the end of the season though. Depending on how things shake out as far as seeding, this could be a snoozefest while starters rest for playoffs.
So the Lakers are playing the Pistons?
no, stupid. they're playing the spurs.
get your head out of kobe's butt crack and read.
I want to agree but the way both teams are playing right now its going to be close leading up to the end of the regular season.
Sunday Sunday Sunday....
Monster Truck Rally!
Doubt Laker rest their players. They have guys coming back from injury they need to incorporate back into the line up. I think it's going to be a tight by then. Dog fight all the way.
somebody doesn't get the joke
The only joke in these parts is you and your flaming Lakers. Not much comprehension needed......
dude.
can i get a first and last name of the chick in your signature?
please?

Its building up to be a good one on 04-13-08 the Spurs and L.A are even, and trust me both team wants home court advantage. It looks like Pop is still playing with the line up, and Andrew Bynum will just be trying to get back in the mix for L.A So look forward for a good one.
No, on the contrary, I think Houston and Boston are the two best teams in the NBA. Detroit, San Antonio, and LA square up the top 5 (in no order between these three)
Paloma Fiuza. Her nickname is Pops.
Houston has the weakest schedule in the west, and Boston has no experience.
where were you when the rockets has the toughest schedule from Nov to Jan?
I talked about this game months ago some people said this late in the season it would mean nothing, but trust me on 04-13-08 it will be a taste of the playoffs. Both teams want Home Court Advantage.
Nobody's resting any starters tomorrow, nothing's decided in the West. Of course there will be bragging rights as well. You might say Bragging rights mean nothing but the reality is it's the difference between "We can beat you" versus "we have a chance at beating you".
Let's also not forget:
Lakers can still drop as low as #3
Spurs can still drop as low as #6
Great game tomorrow, hope you're all hyped up.
ps. Did I hear "Houston" and "Detroit" as the best teams in the NBA? Detroit is way overrated this year. Detroit is good but they're no better than the West top 7 teams. T-Mac ... yes it's going to happen again this year.

Impossible to say how Pop will coach it. I would think he has had enough of blowouts by WC teams. Or he could be completely in "don't care" mode.
Spurs are playing for HCA at least in rounds 1 and 2, and perhaps in WC Finals.
If Den can beat both HOU and MEM @DEN, all 8 WC teams will have won 50 games.
Amazing.
Has any other season achieved that?
Would a 1st round matchup with the Jazz w/ HCA be the most optimal matchup for the Spurs? If so we could be seeing the Spurs in full out tank mode Sunday.
honestfoot is the worst poster in ST history.
Not even a contest Lakers by 27
