Numero Uno: Spurs Clinch Top Spot in West
Posted on 7 Apr 2011 by Chris Aquillino.
Yes, things got a little iffy there for a while. No, I was never worried (just kidding). After dropping 4 starters (like flies, I tell you, flies!), the San Antonio Spurs have come back at full strength — winning their last three, and finally clinching the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. After the Lakers made a solid push for numero uno (winning 17 of their first 18 games af...

Back On Track: Spurs’ End Longest Drought in Duncan Era
Posted on 5 Apr 2011 by Chris Aquillino.
A blowout win after a losing streak can always pick up a team's morale. Especially when it's the longest streak of one's career. Never in the Tim Duncan era had the San Antonio Spurs lost 6 consecutive games (that's insane) until this past week. That streak, as quickly as it was started (and as shoddy as it might be — Duncan didn't play in almost all of the losses) is now over with ...

Four is the New Loneliest Number
Posted on 30 Mar 2011 by Chris Aquillino.
I wish that I had something interesting or important to write after our boys (yes, those San Antonio Spurs — the team with the NBA's best record) had just lost their fourth straight game. I don't. This was not a statement game, or a trap game for the Spurs. It wasn't a game that matters for seeding or playoff match-ups. Monday night's game at home versus a hot Portland Trailblazer...

Another One Bites the Dust: Ginobili Exits Early As Spurs Drop 3rd Straight
Posted on 28 Mar 2011 by Chris Aquillino.
With word swirling that Tim Duncan's ankle injury might be slightly more serious than originally let on (via “sources” of NBA Today podcast host Ryen Russillo), the San Antonio Spurs' back-up bigs were bullied and beaten down last night by the Grizzlies' two-man in-the-paint combo of Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph. For the first team to win 50 games this year, it's not time to panic...

Heat Cool Spurs/Crush Children
Posted on 14 Mar 2011 by Chris Aquillino.
So the second part of that headline is not true. Whatever. Just 10 days after the Spurs took Miami off the Elementary School Punishment Wall and stole their milk money, LeBron, D-Wade and Predator from the movie “Predator” returned the favor. There wasn't a whole lot to discuss until about halfway through the 3rd quarter — when San Antonio made that patented 3rd-quarter ...

Men At Work: Parker clocks in as Spurs take down Desperate Detroit
Posted on 10 Mar 2011 by Chris Aquillino.
Wednesday night was just another day at the office for the team with the NBA's best record. I mean that is if your office day usually includes multiple hall-of-famers, some patented Euro-steppin' and punching your ticket to the playoffs with almost a quarter of the season left to go. Yes, we all saw the Lakers take down those San Antonio Spurs on Sunday like the Mexican Army took down the A...
