so its safe to say that luol is finished for the season also

even though i havent heard anyone say that from the organization.

I remember Michael dribbling at the top of the key. Everybody knew to just get the hell out of his way. - Steve Kerr

I am not sure we were holding him a secret weapon anyway.

Just as a better option to Tim Thomas or Kirk backing up Salmons at the three. Losing Ginobili actually means something.

Everything I post is speculation. I have no insider information nor ideas deemed concrete enough by those who are self-elected to regulate post content.

Actually, if you look at their schedule, they have games left against 3 teams directly below them so they could drop 3-5 spots!

So hopefully the more games the Spurs lose = the higher draft pick we get!

Thought the same thing.

I could easily see one or two more spots. 3 or 4 with so few games left is stretching it.

x-San Antonio—-49——27——.645——12 ½
Houston————49——28——.636——13
x-Portland———48——28——.632——13 ½
New Orleans——47——29——.618——14 ½
x-Utah—————47——30——.610——15

Viva la nuance! Reading comprehension rules!!!

And in this neck of the woods, 1 or 2 spots is somewhat meaningless....

you guys are forgetting that it's the lesser of the spurs and nuggets pick

and denver is lookin pretty good right now. it’s not sa’s pick unconditionally.

On Behalf of Sue, Wjb, majoyenrac, Bullshooter and all the other Hinrich fans...Ill keep the Hinrich Hope coming...There will be light!

I certainly did.

In my best Clay Davis voice, “Sheeeeeeeeeeet.”

That makes me less of a fan of Denver’s recent resurgence.

Don't worry, they'll fall apart in the playoffs.

I have confidence in J.R. Smith’s team-wrecking abilities.

And how does that help the Bulls "high" pick ?

The Game chose him !

I'm liking Denver and even Houstons chances even better

Of course the Jazz but if they don’t get in the top 4 then I dunno about them unless they get matched up with Houston or New Orleans some how. But I think the Rockets aren’t looking bad.

Sad day for NBA

I was looking foward to a healthy Spurs Lakers West Conference finals all year. Last year it wasn’t all it could be with Manu injured and Bynum out.

Picking up Ginobli for my fantasy team and then forgetting about it and leaving him in for thirty games sure paid off.

…

Joakim Noah: Better than you.

You could just see

He wasn’t the old Manu in Sunday’s game….just looked slow all night and was pretty ineffective (Though still smart with the bball), seemed off in the timing of his shot too.

3-31-09: The date when the last relative Vinny supporter knows he NEEDS to be canned. Fire Vinny, Fire Bickerstaff, hire a new head coach and keep Del Harris as the head assistant. Jerry, a player with Rose's skills and upside don't come around often.
