So are the Spurs legit contenders?

IMO, I think there pretty legit despite Timmy and Manu not fully healed. Tony has shown some tremendous improvement and hopefully it'll pay off in the playoffs. I think we are gonna go to the finals, but I think Dallas and Detroit is gonna give us the most . So what do yall think?

o yeah, this was not intended to be a " in about the spurs" thread either

I think the Spurs will climb out of the West, but I don't wanna touch that Detroit series. Too far into the future and I really don't have a feeling about it yet.

I think the Kings are getting some much due credit for how they've played since Artest's acquisition, but on the other hand, I think they might be a bit too confident heading into a seven gamer against the defending champ and deepest roster in Spurs history. The Spurs will finish the Kings in max six games. And playing a playoff game at Arco will not rattle the Spurs. I think the Spurs have proven time and again in the playoffs that they can get it done on the road in any venue.

As for Dallas, yeah, that could be a seven game series, but I still think they should get it done in six. Phoenix in five, I guess. We'll see...

Returning to Detroit, assuming both the Spurs and Pistons make it to the Finals, I think you could expect the Spurs to come out swinging, jumping on the opportunitly to redeem those early season losses. I think the Spurs know they weren't clicking, they weren't entirely healthy, and I think that opening a Finals series on the road will have them ready.

All in all, I also think it'll be San Antonio-Detroit in the Finals.

Honestly, the team is obvious a contender because of their record and the fact that they are deeper than last season's championship team. But, honestly, I'm more focused on Sacramento to care about the long run.
