I agree.
Both teams are scarry but I think the Clips are a slightly tougher matchup for the Spurs especially if Blake contributes. The second round in the west will be very interesting.
I also don't like playing teams that have role players that can go off like JJ and Crawford.
gosh Crawford was such a joke last year (in the playoffs)

Agree. The Clippers have too many scoring options for me to be comfortable playing them. Let GS and the Clippers fight it out, we've beaten a better Thunder team.
LAC/GSW is also a pretty heated rivalry. Dubs have had the Clips' number, but LA is well equipped to give 'em hell for a series.
I think LAC can give GS the best shot as well. LAC is really coming on late and I think the Spurs are much better suited for OKC then previous years with the addition of Aldridge.
The second round should be very exciting this year assuming 1-4 move on.

Best shot out of LAC and OKC, I should clarify..

The starting five players on both teams are fairly evenly matched, though totally different in styles. However, the GS bench is head and shoulders better than the Clippers'. I don't see how the Clippers could win more than a game or two (and two is a stretch). Their bench is just too ****ty.
Be interesting to see how well Blake Griffin in by rd 2.
Also, LAC/Doc will have no problem spending the entire game every game knocking Curry on his ass as hard as humanly possible. This could especially lead to Draymond Green ejections for standing up for SC.

I'm not calling for LAC to upset the Clips or anything. I think 2 wins against GS would definitely be their ceiling. Would be shocked if it went 7.
I'm just saying LAC has the pieces to make GS work for their 4 wins. Hope that's how it turns out, anyways.

Yeah I phrased that weird, my bad lol

So Timmy has won 151 career playoff games, 10 short of Derek Fisher. Here's hoping that he captures the record in the 3rd playoff series and shatters it after winning his 6th ring!! Go Spurs Go!!!

If you go to the game Sun night, watch for my two sons and a nephew competing in some type of halftime basketball shootout (sounds like it will probably be a game of knockout). Unfortunately, my oldest son who is the best shooter has a cast on his shooting hand from a broken thumb.
Couple of my least favorite players. Randolf and barnes
Boring series.
KAWHI DPOY!!!

Older son won the knockout contest! Younger son, who was the youngest competitor, finished fifth. There were five kids and five adults in the contest. For winning, my son got an official NBA Spurs basketball signed by Ice. Pretty sweet.

Anyone know why Simmons isn't dressed out tonight?

Miller is dressed, end of the bench rotating in.
This is the least entertaining Playoffs ever so far. I'm guessing it's going to ratchet up to 11 next round, but this is brutal.

Huge gap between 1-4 and 5-8 this year. Second round is going to be excellent.

That's cool. Looked like they had fun!
Spurs have actually not played great in this series yet, at least on the offensive end. They haven't quite gotten into the same groove they got into late in the season before Pop started resting guys.
Where does everyone get their spurs gear? I want to upgrade and I'm tired of the local Academy selection. I feel like all their shirts are beef T material and from the mid nineties. I'm also not a jersey or jersey number T guy.
TIA
GSG!

We should ask this guy
And completely unlreated, but had to post.
quote:Was thinking the same thing last night. We aren't executing well. Last night you could see both teams putting out subpar effort and looking disinterested from the second quarter on. The positive Ive seen is Martin getting extra minutes and starting to look better. He's making a few shots and seems to be bonding with his teammates on the court from their demeanor.

This series is a huge waste of time and both teams know it. I wish Green would shoot 10 3s a game to try to find some type of rhythm. Just come down the court and let it rip.
So looks like los espurs are about to lose Scott Layden to the T-wolves. Couple of holes in the front office now...any good candidates? I kinda wonder about Monty Williams. r/nba seems to think he'll not return to OKC out of grief/etc. so maybe Pop could bring him home and show him some front office ropes.
