Its all over: The San Antonio Spurs are officially DONE.

[robert_shaww]

Don't really think its a jinx. They're really really done. Kawhi needs off season surgery. It's over

Its over. Yes.

Didn't OP make this same thread last year?

No i didnt. Last year was different. This year we could miss the playoffs for the first time in decades...

Will you leave forever if we don't?

Please say yes.

If I had a nickel for every time someone said that since 2007...

You'd have 5 cents.

I will leave forever (ever)

[Spurs5Rings2014]

I will leave forever (ever)

I think you've made a thread saying this last season, now that I think about it.



Well, there goes that.

[robert_shaww]

The spurs wont win 50+ wins this season. Any bet? Im 100% sure about this.

[Myth]

When was the last time the Spurs didn't pick up the pace after the all-star game?

[rmt]

Spurs probably won't win 50 games this year which is a shame since the streak will be broken, but the important thing is to make the playoffs and be healthy. So far, they've beaten MEM, HOU, LAC and POR with major players missing. The biggest fear is health and then OKC. They haven't played CHI yet and DAL (with Carlisle is always questionable). Doesn't look like CLE has it together yet should SAS meet them in the Finals.

You're always "100% sure" about things that turn out to be wrong. But anyway, regarding 50 wins and playoffs, it all depends on health. The Spurs have had a terrible run and they are on pace to win 49 games with these players out so far:

Patty Mills - Missed 31 games
Tiago Splitter - Missed 22 games
Tony Parker - Missed 11 games
Kawhi Leonard - Missed 10 games
Marco Belinelli - Missed 8 games
Tim Duncan - Missed 5 games (rest)
Manu Ginobili - Missed 5 games (rest)

If you told me we'd lose Kawhi for a third of the time, Parker for a third of the time, Tiago for 2/3 of the time, and Mills for the whole time and still be in the playoff picture and on pace to win 49 games in one of the toughest Western Conferences of all time, I would probably take it.

Dont get it??? Wow. Have you watch spurs games? They have lost 6 out of 8. They are probably ine of the worst defensive teams in the league. YOU dont get it if you think they have any chance of playing the 2nd round of the 2015 playoffs

They are not one of the worst defensive teams in the league - they are one of the best. 8th in Defensive Rating and 11th in opponents pts/game. This is with Leonard and Splitter missing significant number of games. Duncan and Green have been holding down the fort defensively.

Same thing for D-Wade.
