The young team will have a tough time keeping pace this season, but is on the right track for future success.</div> <div align="center">Source </div> Behind the Sonics who lost like half of their team? and the Celtics and Wizards. I would put us somewhere near the top fifteen probably around 11-12 not 17. No respect, but oh well they will just have to shock everyone like they did last year.
I agree that 17 is too low. I would put them 14 th in that list, above the 3 teams right in front of them (Phily, Boston and Golden State). 12 is a bit of a stretch i think. Seattle had a better record last year, and the Wizards beat us in the Play offs, so i'll give these teams the benefit of the doubt...for now. But they're certainly not that much better than the Bulls.
wizards beat us when we didn't have curry or deng, and they lost replaces hughes with butler which i certainly view as a downgrade

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting I-Miss-MJ:</div><div class="quote_post">I think San Antonio are certain to win it again.</div> I do feel as though the Spurs are the dynasty of our generation. I know the Lakers won those titles a couple of years ago, and did make it to the finals against the Pistons, but they have fallen so far from where they once stood so I don?t consider them the dynasty we will remember this era for, but the Spurs have been at it since 1999 and they have been doing it without the flash, egos, and media attention which is one of the main reasons we under value them, but when we sit down with our children when we are mad old, and think about what it was like back in the day the Spurs will be the team we best remember. I hope the Spurs win the title this year or the Rockets anyone besides the Heat I will be happy. Though I?m a huge Shaquille fan that organization has just gone about winning a title the wrong way in my opinion they are like the New York Yankees of basketball they have their huge fan base because of their stars, and talent, but for all those looking in from the outside they have done this in such a short period of time that it seems kind of cheap all because of Shaquille. I won?t be upset should they win the title, but I am not going to cheer them on.
i just think the spurs need to get a few back to back titles before they are a dynasty, i know they have 3 titles but they are a few years apart
