    The spurs still won 60 games.

    The Spurs will have more games won next season than the Rockets. Bump this thread next year.

    I have a couple bumpable post from last year and ended up being right. Too many people underestimate the Spurs year after year. Brown lost it talking big smack yet will end up like an idiot after this year. Just as sam fisher does every year.

    The only way you could bump this thread is if this verse actually win the west.

    Delusional.
    you act like you get some kind of award for having more wins than the Rockets.

    When we beat the Spurs we actually went on to win a championship. We actually did something. We didn't go on to get our ass swept 2 seconds later.

    Lmao so the spurs and rocket meet once after 20 years and you make it like some kind of triumph that the spurs didn't win the championship after defeating the rockets. So irrelevant. You make it sound like they met every year. News flash they didnt. Your logic stinks. Theres no talking basketball with you. My point stands. Bump this thread after the playoffs next year.

    Spurs loading up with iso players:
    LMa, Kawhi now Gay.

    Spurs in TD era were known for complicated offenses executed to perfection, last year they were Iso iso iso and more iso and this year looks no different. How low have the mighty fallen?

    What does Spurs beating Rox have anything to do with it? Rox were nothing last year, with the way Anderson choked up and the rest of the 3 pt shooters shot blanks if they were against any other Western team besides OKC they would have lost in the first round. Maybe if Spurs didn't get their asses handed to them by GSW you would have a point.

    Thats like saying WCF Rox beat Clippers so they were amazing amd are now contenders.

    Has plenty to do with it if you're trying to disregard the Spurs especially based on nothing credible

    Yeah you're saying the Spurs got there ass handed to them by gsw. Nvm the fact that they lost their best player and when they had him they were very much in the game. That's actually what happened. Not these if this and that scenarios people are making up

    Exactly. No one cares how amazing the rockets came back against the clippers was outside of houston. You dont get a trophy for appearing in the conference finals. At least make some noise.

    Well Anderson also choked, shot 28% (worse actually vs Spurs) and Nene got injured. If none of these things happen Rox were very much in the game against Spurs.

    Thats also actually what happened so I dunno why you think Spurs are pretty good for beating the Rox. Plus father time are against the Spurs Parker, Manu and Gasol will be worse now than last year. And LMA has been exposed as a diva who cares more about touches than winning.

    And Kawhi got limited minutes AND rests off AND still got injured. He is pretty good but he is fragile AF. I've hear of players who are healthy but become injury prone but never heard of injury prone players who become healthy, the trend is these old men and Kawhi will become more injury prone over time. At least Harden lead the league in minutes played when he got injured, Kawhi has been the most coddled and cared for superstar last year and he still got injured.

    Anderson actually didn't choke vs the Spurs overall but yeah he's an easy scapegoat. That narrative is pretty stupid and he wasn't the reason the rockets lost. So No that's actually not what happened

    Also something ridiculous these people judging the Spurs based off mainly what happened against one of the greatest teams in the history of the league. Same story year after year. Like I said until proven otherwise they're still one of the top teams in this league.

    Yeah well the Spurs are about to sign a guy that's going to show the world any day now that he is on Durtant's level.

    What do you mean Anderson didn't choke against the Spurs?
    http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/a/anderry01/gamelog/2017/
    Ryan Anderson FGs
    Game 1: 4-12
    Game 2: 7-9
    Game 3: 0-4
    Game 4: 5-11

    Game 5: 7-11
    Game 6: 0-5
    Total: 23-52 44.2% FG, pathetic FG for a shooter who gives you nothing on D and reb.

    I know you are Anderson's biggest fan on the board but you can't deny reality lol. You keep saying that's not what happened well what exactly happened? You mean to say Anderson shooting 28% from 3 in the playoff is not choking when he shot 40% in the regular season? Anderson is the single biggest weak link in the playoffs last year just about everyone abused him that's why he got relegated to the bench and when he did play he couldn't make a shot. This isn't the type of performance you expect from an 18M guy, at least not if you want to win a ring. It's not just that though what bugs me is his low amount of FGs, even when he shot lights out he only took 9 shots. This means the benefit you get from a hot Anderson is limited because he won't win you the game, and then if he is cold he hurts you because sucks on D and sucks on rebounding so its like all downside limited upside. Anderson is a specialized shooter, he should be taking 3s as soon as he gets the ball instead of acting like a decoy, maybe after he shot 0-5 if he kept shooting he would've made his next 3 shots, 3-8 still bad but not as bad as 0-5.

    Yall in here crying about Rudy if he joins the Spurs. Sounds like the Warriors could come in and steal him if Iggy leaves them.

    It's pretty simple. He played bad in 1 game in the Spurs series. Game 1 the Spurs got blown out. However he still got 40% from 3 that game. So it wasn't even that terrible. Game 3 was the only dud. Game 6 was well documented what happened. So yeah he wasn't the reason the rockets lost to the Spurs. You're looking at his fg% when in reality he primarily shoots 3's so of course it's going to be in that range. Which isn't even bad btw. So it's actually not pathetic. Would you like him a few mil less? Of course. But yeah again easy scapegoat but far from the reason we lost to the Spurs.

    Pretty you're surprised you're in that boat of the average person blaming that series Just on him. I would of thought you actually watched that entire series and understood all that happened but I've seen stranger things on this board I guess
