I think so and I think it won't even come down to how well the big 3 plays. If we can get continued development from Leonard and Splitter, I think we can make it out the west against LA. Whoever the Lakers (assuming we meet them at some point in the playoffs) match on TP is going to get roasted I tell you that much

Who? I don't know this team you're talking about. I kinda ignore those bottom-feeding non-factor teams.

If the spurs are healthy I think they have a good shot to win the west. Clippers going to be a problem this year tho.

I do think we are the best team in the west and iI actually like our matchup with the Heat. Duncan with Bosh guarding him for 7 games???? :heh:

I don't agree with a premise of ur thread (that we passed OKC cause Harden left. I feel we only lost to OKC last year b/c Ibaka played out of his mind offensively. He will never in life play that well again)

Hell we could have and should've won the West last year. nikkas would be insane to think a team that came 2 wins away from going to the Finals isnt capable of winning the West this year.

Bosh is a good defender against small 4s where he can use his length and quickness to his advantage. I have watched Duncan nad Bosh go head to head during their careers and on thing is clear: Duncan bullies Bosh on the block. He has killed Bosh so much that they have had to put a bigger body on Duncan to keep him from the rim. Cause Bron or Battier aint gonna cover Duncan, this will prevent the Heat from going to their highly effective small lineup.

Spurs getting to the WCF and were 2 games from the finals are only a good regular season team now? So winning those 10 PLAYOFF games didn't happen?

Good regular season team? :rudy: They came within two games of the finals last year. And the team that beat them took a step backwards. You seem defensive and threatened.

Bosh has done work on Duncan every time they have matched up since he joined Miami. :manny:

I hear what you're saying.. but can TD cover Bosh at this point in his career?

Dap for the flabby and sick/Al Roker comments.

Parker has shown some good clutch ability in the first two games. Duncan playin like he 26 instead of 36.
