Can we beat the Mavs and Spurs back to back?
- Thread starter kingkung
- Start date
At this point, I just hope we don't limp into the playoffs like last year. Seattle really killed us that first round. Now is the time to start gaining some confidence , building some momentum and storm into the playoffs. One thing, if we do end up playing the Spurs, and we beat them.... what a confidence booster that would be for the team. They could take on the world after a feat like that.
ANYTHING is possible.
I do prefer to believe in miracles, so I wanted to choose yes. However, at this point, given how we have been playing, I decided to choose NO.
We have the ability, but we also need to have faith and guts. We have yet to go a REAL run that shows we have have all three at the same time.
It would be GREAT if we were to accomplish a 2-0 win with the Mavs and Spurs. 1-1 is very possible, but 0-2 is just as likely. Wouldn't winning BOTH be AMAZING?????
It COULD happen. . . .
See, I told you that I like to believe in miracles!!!

The Kings are playing like Jekyll and Hyde. That alone should indicate that they will not play well enough against the West's top 2 teams and beat them both. Also, the Kings ability to win the second game of a back to back...especially on the road...is dismal at best.
I picked NO and thought it was an easy decision. I would be thrilled if we could go into Dallas and beat the Mavs. I hate Cuban and Dirk. But, even if we do beat the Mavs, we will not then follow it up with a win in San Antonio.

the answer is, of course, no. everybody should be voting "no." it's just not gonna happen. now, if by some miracle the kings did win both games, having voted "no," everybody could be surprised at our team's resilience and everybody could get their hopes up for the playoffs. delusion is much more fun when everybody's in on it.

If you are so convinced that it is indeed impossible, offer up some wagering odds and see who bites. Afterall, if the answer to the original question should be yes, then it follows that it is simply a matter of probability.
There must be some odds that Nowitski, Duncan, and Ginobili will all break their legs tomorrow.
