Spurs could miss the playoffs this year

[retaxis]

not saying they will however the west is very tough and the spurs have to fight hard every game to remain in the running. They cant expect to rest their starters as much as before because their bench will be exposed by the better teams. The west this year have teams which unlike previous years were gelling/growing like the trailblazers, pelicans, rockets, clippers etc are now in their primes to make a run for the whole show. Even other teams like the mavs, okc, Memphis and the suns are playing very well and aiming to upset in the playoffs. Top 8 teams in the west are all very good and the spurs have to take the regular season very seriously to even make it to the playoffs this year and that might be more difficult with the old legs

Spurs are a team built for the playoffs not the regular season grind. Someone want to let us know how old Tim, parker and Gino is?

All of the teams you listed getting better, except one, made the Playoffs last year.

Fail thread.

They are not willing 50 games this season for sure & will lose early in the playoffs.

sad but true.

I grasp your premise but this is the San Antonio Spurs we're talking about here. Their track record and quality roster dictate otherwise. They'll be there come April...

Best offense =/= exciting offense

Exactly what is.

Gortat compared to it to Mozart. A sophisticated man he is.

The Constantinoples said the same thing about their wall just before the ottomans tore it down
