I don't see how the Warriors can beat OKC in the first round anymore

[No..Money..Mo..Problems]

With OKC's new additions, Super Sabo and Kevin Durant getting to take as much time off as he wants to get healthy I can't see the Warriors beating the Thunder. Not only that but I think they will lose in 6 games or less.
The Warriors have some serious flaws they are severely undersized and they turn the ball over at a high rate and if you make it a half court game they struggle to score.

Forget okc, my man issue with the warriors is the fact that they don't get to the free throw line at all. 3s aren't going to come easy in the playoffs with double and triple teams. Force them to play half court basketball they will crumble imo.

Ya that's what I've been thinking to there offense turns into dust when the game is slowed down. OKC has a lot of depth at the center and forward position now guys like Kanter and Mcgary can give them production near the basket they didn't have before. Before it was just Perk sitting near the basket and Ibaka floating to the 3 point line now they actually have guys with good hands who can finish near the basket. Westbrook drives are now automatic if you don't double he dunks on you or goes to the line if you double Kanter/Mcgary get a layup.

Two teams heading in opposite directions is what I'm observing. What are you looking at sunshine?

Bulls and hawks showed the nba the blueprint.. Kanter and Ibaka aka gonna take turns training lil man draymond and then there's russ

 

[Steezy]

They seem to be pretenders

The softest 1 seed since the 11' Spurs.

That was cold but kinda true. They remind me of the 07 Mavs a little bit more though.

You don't become the #1 seed in the west by accident. If Klay had any kind of game today this thread doesn't exist.

That's true but the Warriors have some serious flaws and OKC added more depth they in for a world of hurt if they think they can just show up and say we the number one seed. I trust the Hawks defense and offense more than I trust the Dubs right now and the Hawks play in a shytty conference where there only competition is the Cavs.

The Hawks can go far. I don't fear OKC though. They're good but so is every other team in the playoffs. No easy way out.

OKC has always been the favorite against GS though.. OKC is the favorite against anyone actually. GS has home court though, probably the best home court in the league, and when they have played OKC they made it tough for them. They have a shot, but I'll still take OKC in 7, if Russ and Durant are healthy.
