    I blame HEB for SA's success getting players on sweet contracts. Spend some time there watching local TV and you'll see what I mean!

    Na

    I'm not mesmerized by SA

    They have won a lot because of the draft not through signing marquee players.

    Gordon Hayward is not walking through those doors in SA

    SA is still the 2nd best team in the west until proven otherwise. with a healthy KL, they competed with the best team in the league. how many years have people said they've getting old, fallen off....

    Spurs got screwed for once.

    Next summer LMA, Green and Gay can all opt out, and it'll be Kawhi last year with his current contract...interesting situation.

    Lol.... They signed the wrong Gasol. Was supposed to be the younger brother.

    Could not even get Paul, so had to settle for Pau.

    Lol, who cares? The Rockets competed with Golden State in 2015 far more than the Spurs in 2017, but in the end they weren't close.

    The Spurs aren't close.

    Wow. That's a lot for an old Gasol. He was good last year but I don't know about $16mil for 3 more years.

    Awful contract for the Spurs. Might be worst in team history.

    Ok? And the point of this was? Nothing wrong with my view of prove it first. Especially when the alternative is just debating on opinion and speculation on who is better

    Lmao yeah because that Warriors team was the same as this year's. Don't let your hate get in the way of your logic.

    It was nice of him to remember to dribble towards the end.
