#39Surprising stat about the Spurs so far: They are 7-9 so far vs. teams currently ranked in the Sagarin Top 10, and 25-1 against the rest of the league!Comment -

They sit so many players, don't go 100% all year. Start watching them the last few weeks of the season. That's when they start playing hard.Comment -

#41I wouldn't quite write off the Spurs quite yet, but I do think their window is closing fast. They've been shit this year against elite teams, but they have had quite a few injuries (surprisingly to their younger plays: Green, Splitter, and now Leonard). A fully healthy Spurs team can play with anyone in a 7 game series, but it does look like this will be OKC's year if they can stay healthy.Comment -

#42They are especially 1-8 against the other teams in the West's top 5 (1-5 at home), the only win coming against a Paul-less Clippers.Comment -

Plus, its a long season. If you recall last year they limped down the stretch even when they had a chance for home court.
The west is tough, its always tough. But when it comes to a 7 game loser go home series the Spurs know what they are doing.Comment -

#46NOT the same team with Leonard out. He may be thought of has their 4th or even 5th best player but to me he is their best player.Comment -

#49Last year was the final run. They gave a hell of an effort and would have won if not for the miraculous 3 by Ray Allen but their ship has sailed.
I give Popovich, Duncan, Parker, Ginobili and the whole crew a ton of credit for lasting as long as they did. They probably should have burned out long before 2014 but it's clear to me that the run is over for these guys.
Detractors and trolls will come in here with "best record in the NBA" crap but all of that is meaningless. Pretty sure they had the best record in the league 3 years ago before getting their asses handed to them by the 8 seed Grizzlies in the first round. They might go and win 60 games again this year but it doesn't really matter. They have shown plenty of signs that the rest of the contenders have caught up. The younger, more athletic Thunder, Clippers, Blazers, Rockets, and Warriors will all prove to be too much in a 7 game series.
It's been a while since the Spurs could hang their hats on their defense but these days they can't stop anyone. That's what happens when you are too old/slow to close out and help on D.
San Antonio could win a round this year but that's it. I'll bump this thread down the road.
in their last 10 games they have lost to OKC, Portland, Miami, and Houston
0-4 against these playoff teams.. they have no chance

Spurs played one of their worst games in a long time. It happens. In 2 of the spurs four finals runs they had a split in the first round. They had a split in the 2nd round last year. Nothing new here. Did Dallas come up with some über plan to beat the Spurs? No. They made shots and the Spurs beat themselves with lazy pases that led to 29 Dallas points and 12 missed FT's. They'll be fine.Comment -

What was I gonna say? "I still think Spurs won't get past the second round guys!!"
You're missing the point here. San Antonio isn't as good as people think they are. Tonight was a glimpse of that.Comment -

#58You are way off here pal
Way off
Spurs can be down 3-0 in a series to Dallas and will still win 4 in a row, I hope you realize this?
No one in the West will beat SA
I don't like these dumb stats that oh they didn't beat good teams in the reg season
Wasn't Miami 1-10 against like .500 teams in the year everyone on this site said they wouldn't get passed Boston or Chicago in the East? Yeah....Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -

#66The rockets fukked you. Spurs have had no opposition so far.
Mavs were 1 stop and 1 score away from going up 3-1 on them too.
This thread cannot be judged until the WCF even though "literally" it lost.Comment -

They have not faced another top 4 seed yet. Portland stink. I said they were frauds from day 1 when people were crowning them as a possible WCF winner.Comment -

I'm not saying Spurs will or won't win I couldn't care less just beating the mavs and blazers is hardly an achievement.Comment -

#70You play who is in front of you...they're about to sweep pretty easily. I guess the Heat beating a 7 and now probably a 6 (though that's still a series) is hardly an achievement. I don't get the logic but we shall see. Think they win it all, myself. Earning the one seed means you don't play the best right away.Comment
