I do hope that Orlando remember that the Spurs don't quit.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.-John 3:16

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

I could see that happening, AB is younger and bigger. Hopefully they keep it a fair fight, no brass knuckles and so.

Some perspective: Reading Spurs reddit and in this thread and the last one they were citing us as a hopeful rebuild in a short amount of years (at least this one lol, don't look at our Vuc years). Same with the Detroit game in a podcast I was listening to, where the host asked what went wrong since their rebuild and ours started at the same time and said we have an identity of defense while they're just running aronud out there.

It's easy to get down on our FO but the team is still talented, hopefully they come out wanting to make a statement and don't let them have a huge comeback again.

Truth be told, he is rarely in the corner any more. Sometimes on the break he might run there not to stand in the way of his team mates, but if it turns into half court possession, he quickly slides to dunker spot.

It's easy if you lack perspective. I personally don't get it. Smart posters saying we need a move in order to take the next step... Like, what? We got our core, our next step happens when they take it. Or smart posters saying we aren't making moves to improve. We have 5 lotto picks, their maturation is a move to improve. Just really silly stuff

For example - this posession: Markelle as dunker, WCJ in the corner.
