Default Are the Spurs done?

I know they have not played a game at home and they were down 0-2 to the Hornets too, but man they just did not show up in the playoffs last night and good teams just don't do that. I hit the lakers last night and may do it again in San Antonio if they are getting points. I think the Spurs may win one more, but they look done.

I think LA steals 1 in SA...there will be no extra rest between any of these games which IMO helped the Spurs out a ton by having the extra days off before game 7 with NO.

Spurs just look depleted late in the game and cannot keep up with the Lakers...Sure they only shot 30% compared to over 50% by the Lakers but losing by 30 points when you had 16 more shot opportunities is not exactly the kind of performance the Spurs needed before heading home. Especially after blowing game 1.

I agree and if the Lakers get one in S.A. it is O-V-E-R

Well, I certainly agree that the Lakers look like the superior team at this point. Yet, I just want to remind you of something: the Spurs have experience coming back with their backs against the wall. Remember that they were down 2 games to none against New Orleans last round. It should be interesting to see what they can do on their home floor.

I like the Lakers in seven in this series. Neither of these teams seems like they will be able to play well enough to pull out the road win. At the beginning of the series, I took San Antonio +220 to win the series. I doubt they pull it off, but there was too much value to pass that up. As I saw it, the Spurs have too much playoff experience and have proved their doubters wrong too many times to question their ability to compete in this series. Still, I see the Lakers prevailing.
