the lakers were idiots for giving kobe his contract, not kobe accepting it. anyway, they needed a name signing to appease whoever paid them a billion for their broadcast rights.
Don't even bother watching then. Good for Spurs getting LMA. He negates the Splitter/Baynes lost and then some. But for some reason, the Spurs still do not scare me. I think we win the SW again.
It's worth a guaranteed top four seed. To me, that is jack. Call me crazy but I am still not afraid of the Spurs. I'm confident in our team. The only spur that makes me nervous is Aldridge (flashbacks to latest Blazers series...yikes).
yup this is the year that the spurs finally fall off. too many miles on their tires. and i don't really think that LMA is that great of a player. i wouldn't be surprised to see the spurs as a 7th or 8th seed. and getting swept or lose 4 to 1 in the playoffs.
and to ad to my post. i will say it will be the warriors, grizzlies, thunder, and rockets as the top 4 seeds if relatively healthy.
Let me backtrack just a bit, I just found this article: http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on...d-playoff-teams-regardless-of-division-winner Still though, Spurs ain't ****, and division winner is a moral victory! Haha
Seriously I cant believe some of you guys not respecting the spurs.... They are the clear favorites to win it all. Their GM and front staff is better than any GM and front staff and are always ahead, but miles. My wife is a spurs fan and I quite frankly I am jealous of how great her team is and will be for years to come. Handles, you need to get a handle on reality. Fear them. They are legit and everyone else is trying to catch up to them.
I was so wrong about us but at least I wasn't wrong about the Spurs. LMA definitely should have stayed in Portland. I wonder how the Spurs rebuild around him and Leonard? I'd have rather played with lillard and McCollum, but hindsight is hindsight.
Maybe McCollum doesn't emerge with Aldridge there? Not enough shots to go around for all three of them.
I think Duncan (and maybe Manu) is going to retire, so they'll probably sign a center (i'd say Pau). Pau LMA Leonard Green Parker still a very good lineup, but no Duncan is and will be huge...Parker will continue to decline so...yeah, i think they will still be a very good team, but probably not a championship team.
hindsight lurkers FTW Spurs looked good in the regular season as always of course you are gonna go with the younger team with the younger stars Good bye, Duncan and Obi Wan GinoBody
Amazingly enough, the Spurs will advance only one game further in the playoffs than the Blazers. Who would've predicted that at the beginning of the season?
I don't know...maybe the Thunder...i don't think so but we'll see...the Spurs though, even with Pau they'll still be old...Pau, Parker are like 36/35...LMA is going to be 31 in a couple of months...they probably won't be a top 3/4 team next season...
