TheyвЂ™re 11th in defensive efficiency at 104.5 and 18th on offense at 105.8. And maybe two of their three wins are against the Magic, but they also got one in the home of the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks.ДЇurthermore, according to advanced stats, (if youвЂ™re into that sort of thing), the Spurs are a middle-of-the-pack - even slightly above average - team that that should be fighting to make the playoffs if everything holds. Five of their six losses have been to should-be playoff teams, and their only truly вЂњbadвЂќ loss was to a shorthanded Indiana Pacers squad who, when healthy, should also be better than their current record indicates. The Spurs can relate in some aspects - they are also one of the younger teams in the league, have been in limbo since their franchise player forced his way out, and lack any stars - but unlike the Magic, the Spurs (now 3-6) have something resembling a plan and are better than their record indicates. They have no franchise player, have been in limbo since Dwight Howard forced his way out nine years ago, and no clear direction going forward. The Magic are a young, depleted team with the youngest starting line-up in NBA history.

However, for two of the seven worst teams in the league record-wise, they could hardly be further apart. The Spurs entered their second game of the season against the Orlando Magic with similar records of 2-6 and 2-7.
