Hard to say. No one's beating the Spurs if they're clicking and playing defense like this.

Portland was the best offensive team in the NBA this year and they are struggling to score.

You need to have a guy who can drop 40 to beat spurs

Kd
Bron

Who on clips can do that?

Pretty much. You can't out strategize San Antonio. If you look at the Blazers right now, they're a team that won all season by hitting tough jumpers and using a lot of motion offense. Spurs eat teams like that alive. Blake got better so if the Spurs try and force Blake to beat them like they did two years ago, it might bite them this, but I don't even think the Clippers win this series against OKC.

If they do, Spurs are gonna waltz into the finals. Spurs are just on another level as far as their depth goes. Clippers still lack an elite wing like KD or Bron. Chris Paul can't do what he did in game one every night, he just can't.

OKC is gonna beat Los Angeles, and then they're going to beat the Spurs. Durant eats the Spurs alive. They can't cook up a strategy to stop him.

We haven't forgotten about your "OKC will sweep the Spurs" thread. :ufdup: I have that under my watched threads.

Clippers, yes. Thunder.... not sure.

The thing about the Spurs is that they are super deep. Don't think OKC can take them my man

Yeah OKC's athleticism and the favoritism of the officials makes them the favorites
They would need herculean performances from KD and :youngsabo: the whole series, which they are capable of.

Memphis gave the blueprint on how you play them...control the pace and keep them out of transition...make KD and :youngsabo: play "Whose turn is it?" 1-on-1 ball. The problem is the Spurs push the ball and play up tempo just like OKC likes to, and OKC has an advantage in pure speed and athleticism. I still like the Spurs though. They wouldn't even have won in 2012 without Harden, and this Spurs team is better than 2012. I'm looking for :youngsabo: to brick away games in the 4th and them just not having enough scoring options to keep up with the Spurs depth.

Clips might need another year under Doc before they beast and DJ needs to learn some offensive moves like Blake has. I can see OKC beating Spurs but not the Clippers.

Don't matter in the end because if either the Clips or OKC were to win, they'd just get murdered by the Heat.

They gonna need more than that, plus Kawhi is one of the better defenders on KD too. It's gonna be extremely hard for the Thunder to beat SA.
