Never count out San Antonio Spurs
For all the other great teams in the Western Conference, the Spurs the boring, old, staid Spurs stood atop the conference going into Thursday night play having won 11 straight despite a tumultuous season.
Manu Ginobili been out, Tim Duncan been out, Gregg Popovich has been out and all the Spurs do is win. San Antonio is in the top five in offensive and defensive efficiency. They are terrific at home (222) and as timehardened a veteran crew as there is in the league. And there have been reports this week that they among the leading teams trying to get Al Jefferson away from the Utah Jazz,[url=http://www.sport.fr/sponsoring/uggpascher.html]ugg pas cher[/url], which would a perfect addition for a championship run.
The next week or two will be telling, though. The Spurs are on their annual extended road trip nine games as a rodeo takes over their home arena. To think they stumble as the trip continues is to discount the resolve of the Spurs, which is an annual mistake too many fans make.
LAKER SOAP OPERA: Kobe Bryant notsogently chides Dwight Howard ( don have time for it to heal, we need urgency, Bryant said of Howard shoulder injury), Pau Gasol is lost for about six weeks with a foot injury, Steve Nash weighs in on Howard ( think everyone has got to play through some pain in this league and, of course, Howard who returned to the starting lineup Thursday night has one last word: his opinion, that's it," he said of Bryant. not a doctor. I'm not a doctor. That's his opinion. They been the story of the year. Oh, and Nash turned 39 years old on Thursday.
DUNKIN ROSS: Terrence Ross, he of the astonishing athleticism, was officially added to the NBA allstar weekend dunk contest Thursday night. Ross, James White of the New York Knicks and Gerald Green of the Indiana Pacers will represent the Eastern Conference against defending champion Jeremy Evans of the Utah Jazz, Denver Kenneth Faried and Eric Bledsoe of the Los Angeles Clippers. |
