“Down 3-1, we know it’s really hard to come back. But we’re going to try. Of course, we still believe in ourselves. We’re going to have a shot. As always the next game is THE game.”
–Manu Ginobili
A lot of Spurs fans have given up on the chances of the Spurs winning tonight in Los Angeles, let alone winning three straight against the Lakers. Blogger Matthew Powell has thrown in the towel over at PtR, and frankly, I don’t blame him. He writes, “This has been a long season for me, for you, for the Spurs. It’s not over. But it’s time to say goodbye.”
Matthew, it’s not time to say goodbye. Not yet. Even if the Spurs lose tonight, and I don’t think that they will, it won’t be time to say goodbye. Not yet.
I know it’s unlikely that the Spurs will win the next three games, but it’s not impossible. It can be done.
We still believe.
