What's wrong with the Spurs?

Looks like the Spurs are gone drop another one to the Thunder again this year. They been down the whole game tonight. The Spurs seem to always lose bad when I bet them. I guess the Spurs don't get up for any of the top teams. Now they are 0-6 against top teams.

Kawhi out is big and Green has regressed...only a matter of time before Marco replaces him in the starting lineup. Against the top teams this yr they are only good for about a qtr and half...not worth betting on this team until they get some consistency

How about the Warriors and Suns are average teams and OKC is an elite team?

2nd blowout lost this week for the Spurs. This team doesn't get up for any important games. 0-6 against top teams speaks volumes about this teams lack of motivation to compete with the top teams. Most of the 6 loses were not even competive games.

Looks like age is catching up with them too. Got outrun by the younger teams.

their style of play is superb against teams who dont have superstars, high energy players. OKC, MIA, LAC, IND and maybe HOU are teams they wont have a winning record against this year. Guys like KD can score 3 3's in a row and thats a 9 point run. SAS play too academically sometimes to keep up the running pace.

That's Pops system to get to the play-offs.

They don't mind losing to elite teams, beat the crap out of the middling and mediocre teams.
A win/loss ratio of 5-1, they're on pace to a 66-16 or 67-15 regular season record, more than
enough to get them to the play-offs.

Pops will rest his starters once in a while, it's more important for him to keep his starters healthy
than having the home court advantage for the play-offs, and we all know they can win on the road.

He absorbs all that he can from those losses, make adjustments to try beat them in case they get to
play them where it matters.

Pops one smart dude...

Spurs are fine. OKC is outta their league... that the prob.

Outside of Leonard....there is nobody on the Spurs who can guard Westbrook and Durant..absolutely nobody....not for 48 minutes...Ibaka can go toe to toe with Duncan...home court or away...they are simply outmatched against OKC...its that simple....
