I'd say that 72 is definitely possible now. It means winning 50 more out of 60. Not likely maybe, but definitely possible.

As a Spurs fan, I'm hoping the good guys in silver and black can throw a spike strip in front of the runaway Warriors.

Why does everything need a label? It would depend on the circumstances. Shit happens sometimes and very inferior teams occasionally win 7 game series. Think back to the 2007 Mavs losing to a very flawed GSW team because Baron Davis and a few other Warriors had out of body experiences. Next round, they were back to being the shitty Warriors but it was too late for MVP Dirk and his Mavs.Da Stars. wrote:And what happens if they do no win it all? Greatest choke job in sports.

I really think that the Spurs are the only legitimate threat. Sometimes shit happens (see my post above) but I really don't see it this year.americaninfidel wrote:As a hoops fan, I'm enjoying it as well.vcsgrizzfan wrote:As a hoops fan, I'm enjoying it.

You have a great point. But greatness in sports is defined by championships.vcsgrizzfan wrote:Why does everything need a label? It would depend on the circumstances.

To be in the conversation for greatest team ever, you absolutely have to win the ring. That's a definite. I'm just saying it wouldn't necessarily be a choke job if they lost.

I think they've got a shot. With Leonard and Green, they've got the perimeter defenders to at least harass Curry/Thompson. They can match the Warriors' depth. They've got the edge in coaching. And this year they've gone throwback, grind-it-out defense-first ball. Big frontcourt. We shall see.vcsgrizzfan wrote:I really think that the Spurs are the only legitimate threat.
