2015-16 NBA Western Conference OFFICIAL THREAD

Parker doesn't think Popovich will rest Spurs' starters against Warriors

 

[Wishbone]

I wish the Spurs had never tanked that game to the Thunder.

They took a loss on purpose that could make a difference now

Spurs were not beating OKC regardless. I think they are winless against the Thunder this year.

They aren't. The Thunder had to play in San Antonio on March 12th. The Spurs are undefeated at home.

I think they are winless against the Thunder this year.

Other than the win versus them on March 12th at home, they are winless versus the Thunder.

Yes, there was no guaranteeing a win. SA struggles to win in OKC.

The SPURS probably lose that game anyway.

But sitting Kawahi, Duncan, Parker, Ginobili, Diaw, Green, and Aldridge probably did not help the effort.

I hope Kobe trains him this off-season. Wiggins is a poorman-LeBron, has no outside shooting, and not as versatile as LeBron.

Very talented, but unless he can make jump shots consistently his potential will be limited somewhat. Of course it's only year 2 and he's 21, he has time to improve.

This is a lie

Dr. Kobe will prescribe 1000 shots per day. It's what he tells all young guys who approach him for advice about improving their scoring.

Warriors will probably most likely get the 1 seed but they gotta pull their heads out and see the light now

 

[Hambombs]

Just realized how possible the #1 seed is for the Spurs. Not likely... but much more possible than I thought.

Spurs should play to win tomorrow.

If Spurs win tomorrow and Grizzlies (fighting for playoff position) manage to beat Warriors in Memphis... the Spurs-Warriors game on Sunday becomes game for the #1 seed.

probably not going to happen warriors probably go 2-2 at the worst probably 3-1

 

[LAD]

Barnes lol
View attachment 103415

My goodness...I am still mad at him about that last shot. Who doesn't pass to the best shooter on the floor-in the league from that range when he's standing right next to you?!?!?!?!?!

But, he kinda redeemed himself last night-even though they still lost.

 

[LAD]

Yep crazy. If James/Wade were making excuses/taking credit away from their opponent anytime they were defeated, they would have been so criticized. One thing about the Heat in the big 3 era they weren't big on excuses. Pretty much always gave opponents credit for beating them.

This Warriors team can't even give teams credit for beating them in the regular season.....Imagine if a team beat them 4 out of 7 in the playoffs.

If? That's exactly what they did in that series and what made it worse for them was they got beat shortly after. Typical you would give the Heat a pass for that back then & then hate on Dray & Klay no matter what they say to the media after a loss.

 

[Hambombs]

Just win tomorrow! I like our chances tomorrow if we come out focused.

 

[LAD]

Yes, especially given the fact they've yet to lose back to back games this season. I'm hoping for the best.

 

[Mecca]

Towns is so damn good

Swear to God if I had to build a franchise today, I'd take him over Anthony Davis for 2 reasons:

1. Contract

2. Health

Davis is well on his way to Mr. Glass status.

He is crazy good. But, how does it help you if he's always getting hurt?

If Houston doesn't make the playoffs, they have to be the joke of the year.

If they give Howard a max deal, they are the joke of the decade.

 

[CodeBreaker]

Without Diaw, Spurs won't win tomorrow.

 

[bksballer89]

71-70 Houston leads heading to the 4th
