The spurs have no chance to beat the heat

[SacJB Shady]

They can't even beat Miami Without lebron and wade. The heat are twice as good and the spurs might even lose to the lakers while the warriors can make the 2nd round.

dont underestimate popovich. he could have the bobcats fighting for 8th seed

It's Already over. As lebron wins 4 in a row it will make everything the spurs ever did child play.

I bet LeBron would love to sweep San Antonio just for vindication.

******ger detected.

The Thunder have the best chance. The Spurs really don't imo. The fact that they really lost to the Heat without Bron/Wade was just...:facepalm

Though you have to admit, that Heat lineup without is still relatively solid.

He can

[Haymaker]

It all depends on Tony Parker. If the Heat shut down Parker like they did to Rose, it's over for SA. If Parker find ways to pass or score through double teams, I like the Spurs chances.

[SilkkTheShocker]

Miami would honestly destroy them.

[Raymone]

I'd like to know how anyone plans on beating a team with the greatest SF of all-time on it, in his prime.

[215Philly]

The fact that you brought up iverson means he's relevant.

Spurs will easily beat Heat if they meet. Cant believe people are using the "Their 2nd string team beat them" argument Well, the truth is that Spurs werent motivated, and they would defo been more up for it if it was against the regular Heat team.

[Wonder Bread Kid]

I know he's a troll but people believe that kind of stuff. In those cases, it's best to just respond with: The Heat could barely beat a Spurs team playing without their 6 best players.

When Knicks beat the Heat earlier this season without Anthony, Stoudemire, Shumpert(?), Heat fans said they were coasting:oldlol: But then they praise their win in San Antonio and celebrates like its a championship:facepalm

[All Net]

Nobody is expected to beat them..

[Quintilianus]

I think it all comes down to parker's and manu's health. If they're healthy, they're at least equal to heat.

either way, it would certainly be a good series - that's for sure.

No, actually they aren't. They are a regular season juggernaut, thats all. It would take no more than 5 games for Miami to beat them.

[SilkkTheShocker]

:oldlol:

Agreed. I can't believe people are buying into the Spurs hype again.

[Quintilianus]

Spurs have the best coach in basketball right now, by far.
They have the best bigman in Duncan, who should be DPOY.
They have a legitimate MVP candidate Parker.
They have one of the craftiest players in the league in Manu.
They have a lot of experience.
They have great role players.

And didn't they lead 2-0 last year in the WCF before the most obnoxious reffing in recent NBA history?
There's two things that can stop spurs - health and david stern.

I'm a Heat fan and I have to agree the last part. There's no way Stern/Silver is going to let San Antonio have another title in the foreseeable future

Still hoping for a Spurs - Heat matchup in the finals though

[willds09]

Here we go with tha overrated ass heat again:facepalm

[Psycho]

The Spurs almost beat a full strength Heat team earlier in the season without Parker, Duncan, or Ginobili. Reactionary much? :confusedshrug:

We get it. Heat are great, no one can beat them. Satisfied?

[LilEddyCurry]

Miami is going to be champions unless they choke or are hampered by injuries.

[Boomerang]

Even if Wade and Bosh are injured, Heat will still beat the spurs.

[DaSeba5]

What do you mean no chance? Of course they have a chance.

LeBrick fans showing no respect to the team that killed their hero in 2007:facepalm

[Suguru101]

I believe that the Spurs can beat Miami, though I don't really think they will pull it off.

However, if the Spurs are to beat Miami, it won't be because of Duncan and Splitter dominating inside, it will be because of their passing and 3 point shooting.

You probably won't beat Miami playing one on one, be it with Durant and Westbrook trying to score from the perimeter.... or Duncan and Splitter trying to dominate their individual match ups in the post.

If the Heat get out of the east, I think they are winning it all.

Yep, OKC beat a Spurs team who had won 20 in a row 4 straight times mostly because of bad officiating. OKC changing their defensive gameplan, OKC role players stepping up once the series got back to OKC, and OKC's stars (most notably Durant's epic 4th quarter in game 5 where he scored 16 straight points in the 4th quarter) stepping up had almost nothing to do with it.

[tazb]

No one has a chance to beat Miami 4 times out of 7.

[schism206]

This. Spurs will get tossed earlier than expected, as usual. Nothing against the Spurs, but this has been happening for the past 2-3 years, regular season awesomeness, then lose to a younger, more athletic team. I know there were sometimes injuries to account for, but last year was no injury excuse if I remember correctly. I don't see any reason to think differently with their big 3 being another year older, and question marks about Ginobli and Parker's ability to be at least 80%. I'm amazed though at how Duncan has been so durable.

[DaSeba5]

The Spurs keep losing in the playoffs because they are more of an offensive team, and can't get the stops when they need them like they used to.

They're an improved defensive team this season. Currently ranked 3rd in defensive efficiency.

So sweeping older Spurs with Wade, Bosh, and Allen somehow makes up for getting swept by them when he was in Cleveland? Not exactly.

yeah i think it does. lebron was still a kid back then. now he is a grown man. 2011 to dallas is another story but as far as 2007 is concerned, lebron was still young and can be excused for that same as durant last year

[RagaZ]

At least Durant won a game.

I think in the Finals, it's possible, but I am one of the people who is not drinking the Spurs koolaid. Who knows if they are going to even be healthy going down the stretch.

It'll be a huge feat for them to make the Finals even in a kind of open West.

Dude they are not equal to miami in anyway.

If spurs has any chance to beat miami it wont be because they are equal it will be because of Pop.I am not sure thats gonna happen.Miami unlike previous years plays as a unit even with ball dominating superstars wade and lebron.If they continue to stay unselfish good luck.Injuries to big3 might be the only hope.

Forget the Spurs, they're boring as fuq. Lakers will dispose of them. I wanna see the Knicks play the Heat. Now that'll be a good series. Something tells me the rivalry between Melo and Bron starts this post season, and we're in for a surprise.

[poido123]

Even though Duncan had a few injuries this year, it has allowed him to play less games and will be fresh for the playoffs. He looks better than last year surprisingly, they should take care of all the west teams, OKC got worse and if they go to the finals, I guarantee that the Spurs will throw everything at the Heat and win. The 3 champions Ginobili, parker and Duncan will hit big shots in a close series and Pop will outcoach Spo and make him look stupid. Well that's the way I see it, unless of course there's an upset in the east.

[jzek]

I think they do. Poppovich is so much better than Spo it will come down to Pop outcoaching Spo even though the latter has the better team, better players, with the best player in the game. I pick the Spurs in 7 (yes, the outcoaching will come out on Game 7 and cost the Heat a title).

Melo and Lebron always had a rivalry, is just that they never met in the playoffs until last year and Melo's team was not on par due to injuries and experience. Melo tend to score more than Lebron most of the time. Lebron can't stop him.
