I can bet my left but that Durant will again get the benefit of the doubt and the blame will be on westy and brooks. Not Durant.

Also...

We cant afford those "off games" from LeBron against the Spurs this year. Like yesterday (yea he was GOAT level in the 4th, but we were all complaining about him through the first 3 Qrts) and like those first 3 games against San Antonio last year.

He's gotta do what he did to OKC. 28/10/7

I think he can do it too. Shooting a better % as well. The good thing is DWADE seems to back.. and I'll take a chance on our superstars for the 3 peat..

They're just better at everything and look like a real team against a team tha comes down and chucks the ball. I honestly think this Spurs team is better than any team the Bulls beat in their 6 title run. '92 Blazers and '96 Sonics were very good teams, but I would take this Spurs team against them. '91 Lakers, '93 Suns, and the Jazz teams would have no chance against this team.

This shows just what we had to do last year to win a title when all again could say was we beat a washed up old Spurs team.

This reminds me of 90's Bulls & Jazz era.

Heat more like the Bulls going for the 3peat while this Spurs team looking like Jazz on steroids. You can compare Malone & Stockton to Timmy & Parker as one of the greatest duo of all time.

I know! KD and Westbrook are going for the NBA record for the most negative points on the court combined!!

They are currently at -60!!!! That's gotta be the world record, right? :wink:

Best duo in the NBA woohoo!

Hope our team remains focused for Saturday and not look ahead.... the Spurs are a dangerous team but hopefully it doesn't distract the Heat...

Seriously, this guy could take any team from the D league and whip the lot of them into an NBA playoff team in one season. THATS how brilliant this man is.


People say that Phil Jackson is the GOAT coach, I personally dont see how ANYONE could put him over Pop. I know Phil has rings but he had the benefit of having arguably the best basketball player of all time for 6 of those rings, then a prime Shaq/Kobe tandem for 3 more, then Kobe/prime Gasol for 2 more.


Pop is about to drag an 80 year old corpse of Tim Duncan, a wrong side of 30 Tony Parker, a shell of Manu Ginobli, and a bunch of glorified role players into the Finals for the second year in a row, a team whos core trio was deemed to be "too old", "washed up", and "over and done with" as far back as 2008.

Who else could do that? Who elses SYSTEM is that god damn good? Doesnt matter the personnel, just plug and play and BAM, instant title contenders.

Seriously, how many times have you asked yourself, when are the Spurs EVER gonna get old and just die off already??
