ESPN Daily Dime: Legler is a Moran

Seriously, he changes his playoff forecast to have the Spurs miss the playoffs entirely after two impressive victories, and a very ugly loss for his #8 team.

Also, Tim Varner(box #8) talks about ginger's big night.

He writes this disclaimer though.

Still, we’ve learned not to write the final book on them until spring.

This writer is more definitive:

I see this team’s championship window as closed.

He’s definitively wrong. To quote Spurs fan Dirk Nowitzki:

They’ll be all right. I never worry about the Spurs." By the time the playoffs start, they’ll be ready. All this right now doesn’t matter. They’ll be right there.

Man, that middle guy sure don’t like him some Spurs. I think Tim stole his lunch money in school or something.

Their bench is unimpressive, and beyond Manu Ginobli, George Hill, and DeJuan Blair, you’d have a hard time convincing me that there is even one player on their bench that would make the Lakers, Celtics, Magic, or even the Nuggets 12 man roster.

Pretty brutal.
One thing I know is that you don’t win a championship in November (and it is hard to lose one then as well).

Not to try and Defend Legler, but it seems that he will periodically be rewriting his opinion on who will make it to the postseason, merely based upon their regular season record, up to that point.

( Either that or surely he jests about San Antonio missing the post season )

...Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is forty five.

Yeah, I think it’s more like who’s playing well now. Except that he says, who will make the playoffs. Weird. Can’t wait to for the Nets to win four straight. Would he then say they’ll make the postseason?
