DEAR NASH

I think the biggest trade the Spurs ever made(as long as I have been following them) was for Dennis Rodman. They never make blockbuster deals.

they dont make blockbuster deals but imo that is why they have had their core players for so long thus their dynasty.

If they have a healthy Parker, Duncan, and Ginobili I think they can beat anybody. I am not saying they will, but they are capable.

Well its gonna be tough for them for sure with so many good teams around them getting better the odds of a repeat are slim to none for the Spurs.

Of course it helped their dynasty when David Robinson got injured in 96.

Basically the West is wide open. Just about every playoff team has a shot at the Finals.

never really thought of the Spurs as a dynasty....last basketball teams I thought of in those terms were the Lakers and the Bulls.

I would be very upset to see that happen lol.

 

[Bannister]

I don't think Boston will sail through the East. I think Detroit can hang with them.

Ok so say Boston wins 4-2....post western matchup are gonna go 6 games easy in every round.....the west is gonna be spent by the time they reach the finals.

Yup, every other team in the NBA wishes they made that move.

One thing is for sure though, the Playoffs this year will be competetive and fun to watch!

Considering what the Lakers had to "give up" for Gasol, of course everybody wishes they had made that move.

Totally. But I also think that it's foolish for laker fans or anyone else for that matter to think that the championship is already theirs. The lakers are going to have to go to war just like the other top 8 teams in the west.

Who said that?

There is still tons of basketball to be played and I'm not gonna pull a 'Patriot's Fan' and act like we got it in the bag already.
