    It really doesn't make much sense.

    Even with a healthy Kawahi, the Rockets would smash the Spurs.

    Pop won (as usual). He spoke and Kawhi listened.

    Lucky for the Spurs, and bad luck for everyone else if he's back to "himself" by the playoffs. My brother-in-law in SA will be thrilled. He's been losing sleep over this.

    So would we now want SA in the 3 spot so they can play GS in round two?

    Pop ALWAYS knows what he is doing. He says he would be surprised if Kawhi played at all this season. The media starts blaming Kawhi for not wanting to come back.

    Less than a week later Kawhi is back to working out and could end up playing in March.

    Here in H-Town, we don't care about seedings. It's pick your poison for the 2nd round. Would you rather play OKC or SA in the 2nd round?

    Honestly the real win or loss will be at the next contract negotiations
    When Kawhi is a free agent next . . . . . . . His uncle or him or who ever
    may try to leave . .. . or at the very least make him pay through them nose

    I don't care about seeding for who we play, but i definitely would like GS to have a tough road before playing us

    Of Course. . . but I think the Spurs have gotten a little use to getting discounts

    Don't matter who we play or who they play. It's the WC and whether its OKC or SA, it's gonna be a tough road to the WCF for all teams.

    Disagree. If they have a cake walk to us, it would be a problem.

    If they were to play OKC in round one (which is where it sits today) and SA in round two, that would be ideal
