That's not my point. I just think it's a little ridiculous some posters here are trying to justify the Spurs record with "luck". That wreaks of jealously and resentment. Look, I hate the Spurs, but lets give credit where credit is due. That team is very very good and looks like the best in the West.

For me, I have never said that they're a bad team and they're just lucky. They have a cast of characters that work together very well and play a high level of basketball. What I have basically said they have been very fortunate to avoid injures which is true. What other elite team can say they have been free of injuries or circumstances that have caused major players to miss major time?

I don't think the two are exclusive. They are probably the best team in the West right now. They have, IMO, the best coach in the NBA. But they've still been lucky. They have an old core that hasn't missed any time due to injuries and they've faced several good teams missing top players.

Also, they got to play the T-Wolves like 19 times already.

The Wolves phenomenon is analogous to certain college basketball players who I swear play like 7 years. Kyle Singler has been playing at Duke for at least 6.

I feel the same way about Kalin Lucas at Mich State.

I've said the same exact thing to my Spurs buddies down here...

The Spurs have great regular season depth:

Jefferson
Duncan
Blair
Parker
Manu
George Hill
Bonner
Gary Neal
McDyess

They've also managed to avoid, major catastrophic injuries this year. so guys like Chris Quinn and Udoka can remain in their end of bench roles. After that, they still have Tiago Splitter in their hip pocket. Their big 3 are averaging 29-31-32 minutes this season. Playoffs start today, they probably take all the marbles, but they don't and April is a long ways away.

Udoka was waived weeks ago, but I get your point.

Tim Duncan just left to locker room with what appears to be a left knee injury.

He was seen going to the floor and clutching his knee.

Honestly he is the 1 player on Spurs I don't like to see hurt, I know he whines but I have to respect the guy for how unselfish he is and maximizing all of his talents

Apparently he's alright now, seen doing warmups before the second half begins.
