What's the Excuse This Year if Spurs Lose?

[SilkkTheShocker]

They were getting pimped hard the same way they were in 2011, 2012, and 2013. I know it's sacrilegious to ever call out the Spurs on ISH. But let's not get it twisted. If they lose this series, it's going to be an epic choke. Don't give me the same age excuse. And how anything the Spurs do now is just "icing on the cake". The majority of this board was picked them to win it all.

[houston]

they too old when they lose


they a smart veteran team when they win lol

[zoom17]

Nobody cares if the spurs lose. Excuses are not needed

Exactly. They should be praised at all times. But when they **** up it gets swept under the rug

[SilkkTheShocker]

lost 8 in a row in OKC:confusedshrug:

Patriots of the NBA.

But the Spurs never cheated and have a legit top 10 player of all time as thier anchor. How does your comparison work at all?

They went to Game 7 of the NBA Finals against the defending champs in 2013.

How the **** is that getting pimped hard?

Anyway. No excuse. They choke like 2011 and 2012, and it's no excuse at all.

I agree with this scumbag for the first time ever.

[MC Gusto]

Series was rigged for the Thunder. :confusedshrug:

[The-Legend-24]

Nikkas are nothing but chokers. Wouldn't surprise me if they got backdoor swept again.

[stephanieg]

We should be watching Spurs and Grizzlies right now.

Why do you keep making this same thread?

[DonDadda59]

Why do you keep making this same thread?

Because he somehow convinced himself that everyone thinks the AARP all stars are an all time great team and that every person here picked them to win the finals... even though clearly neither is true.

Why do you keep making this same thread?Because he lacks imagination

[reppy]

Probably something about how the other team was better.

:confusedshrug:

That's usually why people lose, right?

he is right, most had them winning the championship after game 2.

[ImKobe]

Westbrook & KD are better than anyone on the spurs?

in cast you didnt know, basketball is a team sport

in cast you didnt know, basketball is a team sport

When Westbrook goes off for 40/10/5/5 & KD goes for 31/5/5/3, no one's beating OKC.

if your team plays good defense, there wont be any ''goes off''.

The annual "Silk hates all other teams/players and will let everyone know" threads. :facepalm

Spurs Choke? I'd say it's a match up issue more than a choke job. Ibaka plays and spurs have big problems getting in the paint.

They match up better with Miami, because they can sag off LeBron and make him shoot jump shots all series. Can't do that with Durant.

They also have no answer for Westbrook. Too quick and damaging.

Showing your lack of knowledge silk, let's not forget spurs also have some very old players. They have plenty of excuses.

[Lebron23]

They haven't won a championship in 7 years, and the media and ish overrated their performance in the playoffs. They always pick them to win the nba championship because of the veteran experience. They had one of the biggest choking job in recent memory. They choked worst than the Heat in 2011..

:facepalm :hammerhead:
You expected OKC winning?

[Kiddlovesnets]

There will be no excuse needed since they will not lose this year.
:rolleyes:

Before the series started I had the Spurs winning 4-2, which could still possibly happen. But I realize that the Spurs' core is ancient and they have trouble dealing with athletic teams like the Thunder. They are are very flawed, but good enough to win it all.

But they most definitely aren't an all time great team by any stretch of the imagination, as the OP has claimed over and over again that people have labeled them... even though no one anywhere said anything that ridiculous. And before the season started, a minuscule percentage of 'experts' and the general population had them even reaching the finals.

He was the one after game 2 spewing this nonsense after the Spurs wiped out OKC w/o their third best player and defensive anchor by 35. Just overreaction based on his man love agenda.

[Ancient Legend]

Old, slow, unathletic, not really an excuse.

[Graviton]

[Graviton]
