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

No I just think ur an idiot for making reactionary threads off a 2nd game of a back to back after a 65-49 deficit 2nd half comeback just the night before

So by observing OKC playing better and making trades that improve there team I'm just making a reaction thread now.
Lets just pretend like the 76ers and Timberwolves didn't take them down to the wire.
Lets just pretend like they didn't lose to the Pacers, Cavs and Nets.
Lets just pretend like the Celtics didn't give them that work and had them trailing by 26 before the Celtics did there customary 4th quarter choke job.
Lets just keep pretending like the Warriors aren't showing serious flaws right now.

The thunder aren't a good half court team either though. I'd still trust the warriors will hit from 3 at at least a decent clip even in the playoffs, and they are also one of the top defensive teams.

The difference is we get to the free throw line at much higher then league average in the half court. I deleted the other shyt you said because it made no sense. We aren't even the same team as last year let alone earlier this season.

the biggest concern if im a GS fan is who can you dump the ball inside to when the shots aren't there?

I wouldn't trust Bogut:patrice:

Playoffs are all about matchups..

Gs just has this Phoenix Suns "feel" about them...

I would have tried to break David Lee into the lineup...

Draymond Green is going to get bullied in the half court game
They're really good defensively on the perimeter , it'll save them some. They're going to get killed on the boards in the playoffs

will steph have the energy/firepower to chase:youngsabo:and still score enough to win in a 7 game series?

On paper, okc is the better team...

Scotty Brooks should get fired on the court if a fully healthy OKC team were to lose to GS in a 7 game series

It can go either way really. Westbrook has to keep his head and not get caught up with trying to outdo Steph curry. I don't understand why he just goes nuts and shoots 35+ shots sometimes. They are so much better when he distributes the ball. He does everything so easily I don't understand why he just doesn't do it every game.

This series will be epic regardless. Who knows if we will ever see these two teams matched up in the playoffs ever again.
It's gonna come down to free throws vs 3 point shooting. OKC is gonna put the warriors in foul trouble. At least the warriors are extremely deep at most positions. It's going to be a great series. Could easily be a WCF series in the first round :wow:.

OP is right like a turn on red, lemme throw you busters on some game.

If playoffs started today in the WEST:

1. Warriors
2. Grizzlies
3. Rockets
4. Trailblazers
5. Clippers
6. Mavericks
7. Spurs
8. Thunder

Warriors v. Thunder
Grizzlies v. Spurs
Rockets v. Mavericks
Trailblazers v. Clippers

Thunder victory
Spurs victory
Rockets victory
Clippers victory

If R2 is Thunder v. Spurs; Thunder will be victorious.
If R2 is Thunder v. Rockets/Clippers; Thunder will be victorious
If R2 is Spurs v. Rockets/Clippers; Spurs will be victorious.

Then if be end all, R3 = Thunder v. Spurs; Thunder taken it with passion, word to GOATbrook.

Heard it here first.

Out of the WEST, the 3 teams with possible chances to reach the finals are AS FOLLOWS:

1. Thunder [highest]
2. Spurs
3. Grizzlies
4. Warriors [lowest]

Throw the other 4 teams in the bushes, they aint got a chance.

Heard it here first, :sas1:

Speights is one of the best offensive bigs in the league....along w/being a HUGE black hole

As long as the Warriors have home court i wouldnt worry about OKC that much....i still think of Durant as a guy who struggles under pressure.

For all this supposed fear the top seed in the west should have,what has OKC ever done since 2011 ? They had ONE run and got completely exposed in the finals...

This season the Thunder is not the team id be concerned about playing...
