Just Parlayin: Warriors vs. Thunder on TNT Game thread 3/3/16

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Both teams are different this year compared to last year...

You can't sit and tell me that Steph is playing at the same level he played last year; he's playing well above and beyond.

Golden State only blew out the Thunder once last season. Their first win was against a heavily depleted Thunder squad (which they only managed to beat by 5 points lol) and the other game KD had to leave because of an injury,

Warriors are obviously better than the Thunder this year but do you honestly believe that a healthy Thunder team wouldn't have challenged the Warriors last year?

I've seen OKC get bounced by worse teams.

I fukk with you but that's some bullshyt right there

Most of the teams that have beaten OKC in the playoffs went on to win in the finals (Lakers, Mavs, Spurs, Miami)

The only team "terrible" team that has beaten them in the playoffs has been the Grizzlies, and they won primarily because of Beverly injuring Westbrook

Like I said, I've seen the thunder lose to worse teams in the playoffs than last years Warriors. The last 5 years all I heard about was ppl saying what OKC is gonna do.

I was told the Warriors were lucky they didn't have to see the Thunder last year. Did The Coli lie to me again?

Warriors have beaten OKC all season this season, but the last game went to OT, on an (imo) questionable foul call. It was a foul, but refs never call those shyts, unless its GS apparently lol.

Anyway, the point is, the shyt was close as fukk. If miraculous buzzer beaters is what it takes to beat OKC, then uh..... I'd say OKC is a legitimate threat to GS.

As for last season, I'd have to go back and check, don't even remember the Warriors vs Thunder head to head record.

'12 Miami and '14 Spurs were good teams dude

'11 Mavs are underrated too. Dirk was unstoppable

Don't sell any of those teams short because their record was worse than Golden State's last year, they all would've given them fits in one way or another.

You can also say Golden State hasn't faced any teams of the same caliber as the Thunder have faced over the last 5 years, it works both ways.

Just give us the 3rd seed already

 

[Millions]

i done picked OKC the first two times

OKC and Clippers aren't beating the Spurs or the Warriors

Regardless of if the Clippers get the 3rd seed, both teams have to go against SAS/GSW with home-field advantage. Can't see either of them getting past the second round

 

[Originalgangsta317]

As long as OKC keep the ball out of bum ass Dieon Waiters hands they might have a chance.

He actually played good last time they faced the Warriors

Nah we're coming out of the west this year. I'd just rather have an epic WCF win against the warriors than against the spurs.

That's exactly why it's so funny reading this section sometimes and seeing how quickly some folks jump ship. Had OKC taken better care of the ball or had KD called time on that last possession in the 4th, I'm willing to bet there would be several cats saying GS got exposed, etc.
