Video: Stephen A. Smith has issues with Spurs atop power rankings
 

If you hear a person start a conversation by buttering you up, then you better be aware because the conversation is going to take a 180 degree turn in a heartbeat after that phrase is finished.

After hearing this tirade, I got to thinking that ESPN's Stephen A Smith does have some valid points about the San Antonio Spurs' 2012 playoff run.

Yeah. But Stephen A Smith is a clown...!

Spurs may be atop the power rankings but that doesn't necessarily make them the best team or favorite to be the champion.

1 San Antonio (38-11)

The Spurs remember last year's playoff run more than Smith ever will. They know what they don't want to repeat.

And I got issues with Stephen A Smith. Every time he opens his mouth, we need to turn the A/C up to flush out all the hot air.

:lol

SAS is a jackass of the nth degree - Spurs not in his top 5 contenders!! And the Clips win it all with KG wow - no wonder Skip just humors that idiot!
