6-1. If they lose, I think it will either be to Washington, because it's a back to back, or to Seattle - but I hope they don't lose this one. They have to figure out a way to stop Seattle.
(seeding, info, vs. Spurs W-L, Natl. TV)

Jan
Mon 31 @ Seattle (WC #3, 0-2)

if so,that would be perfect
but maybe i can't see any of them if unlucky..
What's a roat trip? Are you fantasizing about a road trip with a goat or something?
6-1
"What's a roat trip? "
it's when your fingers burp.
I fixed it but not sure editing the subject after posting really works.
7-0
5-2
6-1 in my mind but I could see a L at Washington, or Seattle. My outside concern is Miami. I think the Spurs may end up 5-2 as well. I wouldnt mind being suprised.
Please!!!
We are not finished with our Jan prediction contest, which it looks like I will win....as usual.
Jim remember, I was the first to predict 10-3!
hmm,6-1,maybe it will be to Miami or Washington
You did not get dibs on that prediction...more than one person can pick it you know.
You must be a genius too, btw.
Yea I knowYou did not get dibs on that prediction...more than one person can pick it you know.
YEA!You must be a genius too, btw.
6-1. New Jersey will be the third game in four nights, and they will be gassed.
I think they'll handle Miami as long as T-Mass doesn't get into foul trouble.
They really need to beat Seattle for once.
4 and 3 on road trip. 20 or more threads on why the SPURS won't win the le or how many trades we have make. yada,yada,yada. After every lost.
SPURS 2005 CHAMPS
I'd love to go for a 7-0, but those back-to-backs are . I think a 6-1 would be a successful road trip. Maybe a loss to Miami; without Hughes, I don't think the Wizards will touch us.
Hey, Jimbo, start your own thread about Jan, or re-fresh the original Jan predict thread.
If we Beat Sonics at Home 7-0
If not 5-2
Even though the games are pretty spread out on this trip, it's the first time that the Rodeo Road Trip is entirely before the All-Star break. There's usually some games before and some games after, so the players get a big break. I think they'll go 6-1.
Theri road record to date...about .600 would indicate 4-3, however with more time in between games, maybe 5-2, 6-1.
The Spurs road record against top teams:
@ L.A. Lakers W 105 - 96
@ Seattle L 94 - 113
@ Memphis L 90 - 93
@ Dallas W 107 - 89
@ Houston L 80 - 81
@ Orlando L 87 - 93
@ Sacramento L 81 - 86
@ Houston L 67 - 73
@ Phoneix W 128 - 123
@ Sacramento W 103 - 73
=========================
4 - 6 on the road against top teams.
Opportunities to fix it up:
Mon 31 @ Seattle
Thu 3 @ L.A. Lakers
Wed 9 @ Washington
Sun 13 @ Miami
It would so sweet to go up to 8 - 6 against seeded teams.

7-0 is my pick. I think they are sick of losing to what is proving to be a chimera of a team: Seattle.
Kori - There is actually going to be a 4 day break in there. They play LA on Thursday the 3rd, and will probably fly back after the game, giving them F,S,S,M to rest or practice, before flying out to Charlotte for a night game on Tuesday the 8th to play the East coast leg of the trip. They should be well rested for that 3 games in 4 nights stretch.There's usually some games before and some games after, so the players get a big break.
Yeah I know about the 4 day break, and of course they'll come home. But the "normal" break is about 7 days. There's a difference.
Doesn't Pop hate too many days off? the guys getta out rythym, get rusty and dusty. Remember the long delays last season in the playoffs?
