Game Thread Spurs (53-18) @ Heat (38-33) (Mon 3/23/2026) [6:00PM CDT]

Hope we get to the WCF tbh. I think we have at least 40% chance vs OKC.

I say 70% even without HCA. Have more faith. If anything we're the 2001 Lakers and they're the 2001 Spurs. They're scared of us and we have the dominant big man.

 

[spursistan]

Yeah if OKC doesn't lose in Boston to the Celtics on Wednesday then the #1 seed is probably out of reach for us.

They have three tough home games in a row, against NY, DET, LAL, and they could still lose at LAC or DEN too, but our schedule isn't exactly cake either, though it's easier than OKC's.

Yeah that's the game i'v penciled in if we are going to have any kind of suspense left for the Top seed race especially with Spurs having what should be 3 straight gimmies vs Memphis, Bucks and Bulls next .

Hopefully. Hard to beat a champion’s swagger tbh.

But yah, in any series, always good to have the best player in the court. And we do tbh.

I’ll give us a 50% chance. We match up very well. My concerns are obviously their experience and SGA just getting so many free throws because the referees can’t stop calling his goddamn flops. I hope players and coaches in the media as the playoffs start really call that bullshit out.

Hope so tbh. SGA’s game sans the fts is like the perfect playoff player. Godly midrange plus 3 pt shooting. He’s like an offensively better Kawhi which is actually crazy to say in the first place.

Castle, Fox, Harper all have to have a really good series..

 

[MannyIG]

30 point lead after 3, exactly the cushion we need to endure heavy Bench Vanilla minutes in the 4th. Olynyk-Biyombo -17 in 9 minutes coming

Bench vanilla is diabolical lmao

 

[Correct Crusader]

Houston drops another game, this time to the bulls. Even with KD dropping 40 and Sengun 33 they can't win, lmao

 

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I'd still favor OKC over us, but Boston and NY in the finals would be very rough

Still, what an incredible season

 

[MannyIG]

I won’t believe were favored in a series with OKC until we beat them. The regular season games don’t mean much imo so we’ll see. I think we have a real chance but can’t imagine the case to say we’re favored

What would be a better mirror of this generation of spurs than a championship against the Knicks

Part of me wishes we could have had one more game against them during this last stretch now they’re back to a big win streak and added McCain.

We’ll find out in the playoffs one way or another!

Bench vanilla is diabolical lmao

finally someone noticed, thank you Manny

 

[Mugen]

Bulls choked away a big lead and looks like they are going to lose

Never underestimate the heart of a bus rider like KD tbh

 

[ChrisC21209]

Man what a season! Enjoy it boys! Soak it in, it’s been a long time!

 

[Ice009]

Great win on the road by the Spurs. The only slight complaint I have is the third stringers. They seem to let teams cut into leads in such small amounts of time/minutes.

Hope so tbh. SGA’s game sans the fts is like the perfect playoff player. Godly midrange plus 3 pt shooting. He’s like an offensively better Kawhi which is actually crazy to say in the first place.

Clippers could have paired him with Kawhi, but Kawhi screwed that up and the Clippers screwed up too by trading for PG at Kawhi's request.

As for SGA, hopefully in the playoffs they don't call so many of those touch fouls/foul baiting fouls for him.

 

[Fireball]

Rarely seen such a dominant game against a well coached team. Complete annihilation

Here I was expecting a L but the Spurs dominated that game. 22 - 2 record is no joke.

I know we're gonna have some silliness on here when the playoffs start and fans ready to throw our players and Mitch under the bus the moment they struggle or have to face adversity but it's really hard for me to hate anyone on this team. Proud of the boys regardless of where they finish in the playoffs.

Disgusting highlights.

His trajectory is looking like top 10 player in the NBA in a few years.
