Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
Spurs would eat us alive. It's the teams that lack the discipline to hammer it down low that we do well against. We need that 7 seed. I think we could at least win two games against OKC. Against the Spurs, I just don't like our chances to win more than 1.
Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
I don't care if we get 7th or 8th seed. It's all about the experience. The chances of moving on are slim either way.

This isn't meant as a rebuttal, but if you want some Sun fan goosebumps, go rewatch this clip of Dragic whipping out his dragon and breathing fire all over the Spurs in the 2010 playoffs. One of the great Suns moments of all time.

Yeah, I remember when watching it live it was such an incredible and mind blowing experience.

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
I totally thought that was our year...remember all the articles about 76 and '93 that were coming out then, about the exact 17 year intervals, and how we would be defeating all our greatest rivals enroute to a '76 rematch, and after the Spurs series, it felt so destined;

Spurs up by 12 on Mavs with 4 to go

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
@paulcoro: Tony Parker (back) sits out but SA wins at DAL (48-32), putting PHX (47-31) in 7th by % points. #SunsAtMavs is Saturday. MEM (46-32) is 9th.
Go Suns!

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
According to Spurfan, Coach Pop is likely to sit at least 2 of the Spurs' Big 3. Duncan and Parker most likely to sit. Manu may or may not play.
Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
elaborate: the last time the spurs were destroyed in the playoffs was in 2010. and the last time the spurs were crushed in the 2014 regular season was from the hands of the suns.JeffreyLee wrote:SDC wrote:the suns were the last team to destroy the spurs.Big Jake Little Jake wrote:Spurs would eat us alive.

The way Patty Mills is playin, they wont miss parker too much.
Now Duncan on the other hand...that would be huge.

They are 9-2 without Parker.
He makes a difference, obviously, but They would still be favored with us if Duncan plays
