Wow this went south in a hurry.

Pretty much sums up why I'm willing to wager my Basketball-Other posting ability.

Mass, you're being counter-intuitive. if the Lakers lose to the Spurs, and I just leave because I have to for the bet, who's going to be here to be called a dick-licking retard?

What a shocker....Simple runs his mouth and someone calls him on it and he is too big of a coward. In other news, the sky is blue.

so you look at how they are playing versus other teams as. of. late. which is what I said.


using your own logic, you should be a little worried about the lakers.

but then i'm sure they don't care about any of the games they are playing right now.

who said i'm not worried about the lakers?

actually...im more interested to see how they respond vs portland and the thunder.

the lakers are not a classic case of a team peaking too early. the spurs are.

Doesn't Kobe just have one more ring than Timmy? Simplesimon acts like the Spurs are choke artists.

Hmmm...Lakers have lost 3 in a row of which 2 were at home. Not to mention, 2 of the 3 losses were to non-play-off teams. I guess they are on a roll.

No kidding.....how does this moron not see this? Guy is completely freaking oblivious and is a troll that exists solely to make comments abou the Spurs and pimp the Lakers even though that clown hasn't stepped foot inside of Staples.

You'd be incorrect as usual, ass munch. I've been going to Spurs games since I was 6 years old. My grandparents used to have season tickets in Hemisfair Arena.

From the Spurs report:

"The Spurs, with more than a little help from the Los Angeles Lakers, have gone and sucked all the drama out of the final week of the season, securing the Western Conference’s No. 1 seed with three games to spare. Express-News staff writer Jeff McDonald examines what it all means:

How important is the top seed anyway?

In a way, Gregg Popovich’s lukewarm stock answer to that question — “you wouldn’t turn it down” — is on point. The top seed and accompanying home-court edge doesn’t guarantee a championship, but it can’t hurt either. Under Popovich, the Spurs have been a No. 1 seed on four other occasions, winning titles in 1999 and 2003. In 2001, they lost to the second-seeded Lakers in the conference finals. In 2006, after winning a club-record 63 games in the regular season, they lost in the second round to fourth-seeded Dallas.

How hard do the Spurs now push for the NBA’s top overall record?

Not very. The Spurs are a game ahead of Chicago in the loss column for that honor, but it’s probably not worth exhausting themselves over. The advantage only comes into play if both teams meet in the NBA Finals, in which case the team with the best record gets to play Games 6 and 7 on its home court.

I bought tickets to see Tim Duncan play over the final three games. Can I get a refund?

Good luck with that. The biggest question facing Popovich now is how much rest to give his starters, particularly those north of age 30. History shows with seeding locked up, Popovich is likely to rest Duncan, Manu Ginobili, Antonio McDyess and others before the start of the playoffs. But the Spurs are also just now getting over a six-game losing streak, and would like to build positive momentum heading into the postseason. Too much time off could be just as detrimental as too little.

What’s the best and worst first-round matchup for the Spurs?

Of the three teams capable of winding up eighth, New Orleans represents the easiest draw, especially with perennial Spurs killer David West out with a knee injury. The Spurs should be able to handle Memphis, the team currently in eighth place, but would likely come out of that series battered and bruised by the rugged Grizzlies. Portland, the only team to win a season series over the Spurs, remains the apocalypse scenario."
