|
|
They've won 9 in a row and have killed legit contenders in Houston, Memphis and GS. Kinda reminds me of the Seahawks last season. Defending champs, started slow, questions about whether they were still in the race, and then went on a run at the end.
Do you see them coming out of the west? _________________ A banana is killed every time a terrible thread or post is made. Save the bananas. Stop creating terrible posts!

I don't condone injuries or wishing something bad happening to players. but if something happens to the spurs players to affect the winning dynamic of that team than I would feel sorry for that player and wish him to recover as quickly as possible but I would not feel bad for the Spurs team as a whole.
(bleep) them!!! I hope they get eliminated in the first round |

If it comes down to the clippers or the rockets vs the spurs in the playoffs than I would root for the clippers or the rockets of it comes down to Cleveland and spurs in the finals than I will root for lebron. Sorry. I cannot stand that San Antonio team. I want them eliminated for good |

The Spurs play basketball the right way. I find it hard to dislike them. It sure beats Lebron winning it all again and hearing Lebron being called the GOAT again. |

rather hear LeBron be called GOAT than San Antonio raising a sixth banner. I don't give a rats ass how they play basketball... it makes me real happy when they lose and that's it |

I like the Spurs style. Each player maximizes their talent on both ends. There are more than a few teams with more talent but SA competes because they play together and they play hard and composed. Its the way I like to see basketball played. I was never a fan of the super star ball hogging style. Oh and Duncan is my favorite player outside the Laker players. |

yeah I get it they have good players.... Hell I even want Kawahi Leonard a Laker.... but the whole team in general winning a sixth title Manu, Tim, Bonner Duncan..... just sickens me.... I hope they lose in the playoffs but before they go out I hope the lakers next season meet them in the playoffs again and beat them |

Unfort, Spurs are the top contender to put down the Cavs. Warriors would have the HCA, but I wouldn't trust them as much. Can't picture Grizzlies pulling it off, though it would be awesome if they did. The rest of the West is decimated. _________________ Smrek 2, Nevitt 1, Barkley 0 |

A successful off season would be sours losing in the playoffs and for them not matching Leonard Max contract offer by a different team. |

Right now I only see three teams emerging from the western conference. Warriors, Clippers and Spurs. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

The Spurs truly are a team of role players. And TD is my favorite player period. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

I have a feeling that some or all of the old guys will break down during what will be a grueling playoff run in the stacked Western Conference. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

I'm sure there's some kind of black magic involved with this Spurs team. Or a pact with the devil.
There's no other explanation. |
