S.A. vs OKC...

[Wish4svts]

Jazz and Dallas ended up with the same record...clips and lakers only won 1 more game than the Clips...Clips had winning record vs OKC....


Come on game one!

Probably wasn't much tougher but it was tougher. Mavs were better than the jazz despite the same record. Either way they are both great teams and hopefully will be a great series and not blowouts like most other series in the west so far.

Fast breaks are the key for OKC, you know Duncans ass can't run anymore

Obviously haven't watched a Spurs game this year.

Yeah Duncan definitely has a little more pep in his step this year. Not a young Duncan of course but also not the old, worn down Duncan of the last couple years either.

I dont think the West was bad at all this year.

The Mavs / Clippers / Memphis / Lakers are better than majority of the teams in the east besides Chicago (with rose) and Miami.

Its just that SA & OKC are dominating. Pacers couldnt beat a 2 man team with no bench at all. Sixers and the Celtics are playing really bad basketball.

I do hope Celtics close out, ECF are set for Monday at 7pm. Hopefully Bosh is out and Garnett has a field day. Who really wants to see the Sixers in the ECF?

He's lost 25lbs from last season. That's helped him alot.

[LS WHAT ??]

Spurs in 4

Hopefully Parkers comments about Westbrook make him want to hog the ball more, if Westbrook keeps the ball that's less points for KD. Durant won't be stopped but if Westbrook can be slowed the Spurs will take it. Spurs in 6/7.

I think SA will pull this one out in 6. Since the MAVS are out I'm pulling for them to win. I dislike Westbrook and wade. Those 2 players still talk down on the MAVS even though we thrashed them last year.

Spurs take game 1.

OKC was winning towards the end and they started missing shots.

Like I said before. Sooner or later those jump shots will stop falling and when that happens bye bye OKC. I will say it was a closer game then I thought it would be.

What? Look at the scoring per quarter, the only off time we had scoring was the start. Where we fell apart was defensively in the 4th. The Thunder shot a better % from 3 pt. and free throw and just barely got outshot in field goals. If we had a better start shooting and the defense held in the 4th it would have ended in our favor for sure. Thats why there are 7 possible games and not 1 though. I will agree with you though that we did not drive the lane as much as we should have....

OKC almost never drives the lane. They live and die by the jump shot. Also Manu finally came out of the slump he had been in for the last 2 series. This means trouble for OKC.

[Juiced4v]

Spurs played a horrible game with a season high 17 turnovers...they only showed up in the 4th but that is all it took!

GO SPURS 1-0
