OT: Will the Spurs make the playoffs?

[KingSpeed]

I hope they win today but if they don't, they'll be only two games ahead of the surging Suns. Plus, the Thunder are obviously making a push. Maybe this is the season that the Spurs finally fall off? Not saying they won't make the playoffs as I never said the Rockets would miss the playoffs despite what MM says. I'm just asking a question to start discussion. Merry Christmas.

 

[magnifier661]

I think I will never count them out because they've proved me wrong for like the last 5 years.

They signed a contract in blood with blood. I don't know how else to explain it

Pop made a shadow baby with the red witch? Burned a few kings to R'hllor the red God, mayhaps.

The western conference is dark and full of terrors.

 

[H.C.]

The Spurs had their issues with the west as well last year until later in the season.

Yes they will make the playoffs.

Hahaha yeah!

Yes they will make the playoffs.

I seem to remember one year being like 10 or so games under .500 then won 20 in a row. My past has been a blur, so I could be making it all up

 

[Natebishop3]

All they need to do is get IN the playoffs and they become a threat immediately. That's why pop rests his guys so much. The goal is to get to the post season. After that they go full Spurs mode.

I was mocked, and accused of mocking for starting this same thread a couple weeks ago. Let's see how this goes.

Where is BNM with his claims of mockery and unjust?

I have a genuine question for you MM, actually two questions.

1) Do you think Eric creates those threads to troll?

2) Do you create your threads to troll?

You're making it up. Spurs have never been 10 games under .500 on Duncan's watch.

Agreed

A couple weeks ago, San Antonio was 13-4.

Since you started your thread, SA has gone 5-8 with losses to rivals Portland, Memphis, Dallas, and OKC. I think the question is legitimate now.

Also, can you make a "will Golden State make the playoffs?" thread?

Yes, a "Will Golden State make the playoffs?" thread would be most helpful.

Depending on your definition of trolling, yes to both questions

And the Rockets were 9-3 when their thread was started

Sly said all these threads would be merged into one, so a GS thread would be futile. I would at least hope one with the EXACT same question would be merged......or was it just my threads that would be merged into one?

I respect that you NEED to make this thread about you. I don't fault a raccoon when he gets into my garbage, either. It's just instinct.

But seriously, get over it. Get over yourself, too. YOU are the only hindrance you have to enjoyment. YOU are the only thing standing in your own way here.

Physician, heal thy self.

It's the same thread that I was mocked and chastised for. Just wondering what the difference is? No one answers, instead, they turn it on me. Just like I turned it on Eric and got ridiculed for it. So at this point. Seriously, what's the difference?

Do you realize that you are really the only problem child still left on the forum? You're the only person going out of your way to create drama?

I know the real reason but I can't say it in public. It would be too raw.

But the second most real reason is time. Now is the right time to talk about this subject. Yeah yeah the Houston thread, whatever (their SOS and MOV at the time were really bad, so there was a bit of a reason to talk then about them). Now we can talk about San Antonio.

But we both know the real reason; I won't embarrass you in public over it.

I can see how it would look that way, but look at from my point of view.

I started this exact same thread three weeks ago, after they had a bad loss and was both mocked and called out for mocking in the same thread.

How is this thread any different than mine? Is it because the OP didn't see the signs as early? Is it because it needed to be later in the year before starting it? If so was the Rockets thread that was started truly an asinine thread as was pointed out because it had only been 12 games and they were 9-3 missing 3 starters?

Strength of schedule was thrown in my face in the Rockets thread, yet SA has a better strength of schedule than both Houston and Portland.

It was said I was making this about me, but I was making about the other thread, and the other poster decided to make it about me.

I mean don't you see it? I get blasted for starting the same thread a few weeks earlier, and can either sit here and say nothing, or get blasted again when someone else starts the same thread.

Where is the consistency?

Please tell me when it's ok to start threads about certain teams and not others? Are there only certain posters who are allowed to start them? You tell me the rules, and I'll follow them. Rockets ok after 12 games, but SA not ok until now? Are there the same restrictions on players?

I like turtles though so it's okay

 

[BlazerCaravan]

How about this: when a team has gone through a sustained rough patch (say 10-15 games of sub-.400 ball) and their position in the playoff picture is now in the lower half, trending downward, you may start a thread questioning their ability to make it to the playoffs.

Likewise, if a teams is playing .700 ball or better for 10-15 games, and they have moved up in the standings to the top half of the playoff picture, you may ask if that team is "for real".

Example: SAS is 5-18 through 13, and we may indeed wonder if they will make the playoffs. POR is 10-3 in their last 13, and we might indeed wonder if they are "for real".

so, to keep it on topic...

they looked pedesterian today. i'd say a 5-7 seed.

Turtles have long penises

Turtles have long penises

As an Asian man, this must frustrate you.

On a more serious not, don't you wonder how that turtle got aroused in the first place? Did the guy holding it rub him off or something?

 

[tlongII]

I have heard that turtle penis is a delicacy in some Asian cultures.

Yes it's common for men to use the tip of their tongue. Less work for breeders

It has to ejaculate first
