They might, but this year the Spurs are not like last year. The Spurs will win in 7 games series despite the so and so calls from the refs because Spurs are better this year. Granted Spurs continue this great start of the season. Who knows perhaps OKC will go not be eliminated by Memphis in a previous round.

Yes very true. It is still to early like I mentioned at the top of the page.
Spurs did not run away with the League yet. What I like is not only that Spurs have the best road wins in the League which is not enough to beat teams who have BIGS that could give the Spurs some fits. I am liking the Spurs coming back to being a Good Defensive Team which was so missed in last few years since they won the title in 07.
I just posted the article from Spurs Nation

After Monday’s play, they ranked fifth, allowing opponents to make just 43.2 percent of their shots. Only Oklahoma City, second in field-goal percentage defense at 42.6 percent, has a greater differential in points scored and allowed (plus-9.53 per game), than do the Spurs, who have a differential of plus-8.64 points per game.
