bulls and cavs are gonna finish with a similar record to us when its all said and done
thats why you cant make comments like this 30 games into da season.
its typical overeaction. all i see in this group.

i never said sacromento is out of our league. you literally made that up from scratch. i said they are still in the playoff mix. you and other people in this group were just biggin up our victory over them da other day because they beat a few good teams before they played us:laff:

this is what happens when you have an agenda, you cant keep up with your own bullshyt.

and yes, the santonio spurs are out of our fukking league. 13-18 start doesnt take away 20 straight playoff apperances:why::snoop:
1) Stop trying to predict the future. We don't know who's gonna be where at the end of the season. The Spurs could have a similar record to us at the end of the season too. Which leads me to my second point

2) WHAT HAPPENS AT THE END OF THE SEASON DOESN'T MATTER WHEN TEAMS ARE IN THE MIDST OF BAD STRETCHES. Do you know why I brought up that the Kings had just won a stretch of good games? Because it meant that that team we were about to face would be a tougher victory than the Golden States and the Atlanta's of the league. Unless we're talking about title contenders, as you've already mentioned, any team can lose. And if a team is strolling in with confidence, they are tougher to bear than say a team that is on a 7-8 games losing streak. Or a team that has up to that point lost more games than it's won. The Spurs eventually becoming a playoff team doesn't matter for THIS conversation because the Knicks played them when they were a bad team. Capiche?

3) Golden State has been to 3 straight Finals but our victory over them doesn't impress you right? Do you expect to beat the Lakers since they were a bad team last year? Since when does what happened before the season matter when a team has a bad record 30+ games into the season. Since when does what we see on the court 30 games in (bad shooting, too many mid-range shots, poor defense) become irrelevant?

Here's what matters. The Spurs haven't had a winning streak larger than 2 since their 3 game winning streak to start the season. They are a bad defensive team. They don't shoot the 3 enough and their losing streak was only 2 games better than the Knicks. Are they better than the Knicks? Yes. Will they end up with a better record than the Knicks at the end of the season? Most likely. Are they completely out of our class up until this point of the season? Absolutely not. The Knicks can and should be able to pick up a win off of teams like the Spurs. Not blow them out or win every game...just pick up a win

explain to me how losing to da spurs the first game of the season counts as losing to a non playoff team (they started 3-0 and made da playoffs 20 years straight before that).
