    People, don't wet yourselves just quite yet. I have no big news or information that will give you great hope, but you have to realize something: We've only just begun. This is a team with key injuries, new starters, and new important bench players. It would be foolish to make trades, give up on players, or fire our coach this early in the season,...so why are so many fans calling for it? Let's be reasonable here guys, any major move at this point in the season would make no sense. This season isn't a waste or a loss, it's just a slow start. The worst case scenario is obviously bad, but the best case scenario is still a possibility too. So change your pants, wipe your tears, and keep your chin up.

    Agreed, it's not all lost, and we have just begun the season.

    And I'm not a skeptic--we're still going to go to he playoffs, and we're still going to make it past the first round. HOWEVER, I do have to point out two things.

    1. When (if ;) ) Sura returns, all you Sura haters will realize how much he means to this team and how much he adds.

    2. My biggest problem with this team is that if you take away our best player, TMac, we're NOT a good team. I know some of you may say, "But he's our best player; that's expected." Well, I disagree, especially when we have someone with Yao's caliber on this team. We should at least be able to play well, and still win some games. True, TMac was only out 3 games, but during those 3 games, we looked like CRAP. Everyone looked completely lost. Rest assured, the championship teams could make it a few games without their best player and, because they are such good players together (like Detroit), they'll still will 50% of their games.

    So I'm not giving up on this team, or counting them out, or crapping on individuals, etc. I AM pointing out some glaring problems that, without being addressed, will end up biting us in the butt. I'm also NOT suggesting we make trades or freak out; maybe the better chemistry and flow will come.

    *pushes Rocket_Boy_34 aside*

    Don't listen to this madman! Flee you fools! Abandon ship! Leave the rats to their watery grave! It's not too late to become a Spurs fan! There's still room on the bandwagon!

    Why, does T-Mac have a twin sister who is also strong in the way of the force?
