The System vs. The Servant: The Official San Antonio Spurs vs. OKC Thunder Playoff Thread

Can kawhi get some damn help from anybody

Pop need to let go of that big 3 shyt knew he would do that play for Parker

Why put out west then bench Duncan

Kawhi needs to demand the ball. As does Aldridge.

With the whistles being called in the final minute, Leonard would have gotten two FTs

Durant played good defense and Westbrook denied a back door entry pass.

Come on, pop at least given them a shot

Cant do any worse than Slo-Mo.

MAN Duncan can't even handle steven adams this is worse then ewing on the magic and dream on the raptors

pop has to make him the 12th man. He can't play anymore unless someone get's in foul trouble.

Pop probably needs to go small with leonard at the 4 and LA at the 5 and play fast to try to change the tempo of the series.

He HAS to make a lineup change for game 6. If i see duncan in the starting lineup i'll go insane.

I would start that boban kid.

Also miller should get some of mills minutes, he isn't a shooter but atleast he can do other things on the court.

No more of Pop managing minutes either. Sugar Cane and LMA have to play 42+ minutes and also one has to be on the court at all times like what OKC does with kevin and russy.

Shorten that rotation as well

start boban and just play west, miller, boris and manu off the bench

Sabo continue the legacy of Kobe and destroy the spurs

These guys r on Kobes path toward Spurs

2-1

Fukk it. Might as well toss Boban out there. He can't do any worse than Timmy. Give Simmons some burn, too.

Gotta hope LMA regains his suddenly M.I.A. stroke. He was favoring that finger more last night, but I can't help but since he kept doin it after a missed, open J.

Kawhi's our soldier. No beef.

Only reason West should see any playing time is if Boris or another "big" gets into foul trouble. Tony needs to get back to facilitator-mode since his shot has fallen the fukk off. Layups only, you French fakkit.

Maybe some situational shyt for Duncan.

Steven Adams is the real MVP. Dude has been playing amazing basketball

No doubt. Shyt's become so stagnant.

We destroyed the Warriors on the boardw this season actually . Lost every game because of our bench getting blown out

I definitely remember the 1st quarters being pretty competitive (or the Thunder leading) before a huge drop off with the bench. I don't recall how much ibaka/adams/kanter were bullying bogut/green/speights/ezeli but if they were getting them bad there, i stand corrected. Tho i still see GS putting up a better effort on that end than Aldridge and the geriatrics have in key moments here; maybe not the overall rebounding total but at least not so borderline pathetic + better in the 50/50 ball situations

notice what they all have in common too.

dog

its like he thought he had 30 pts and had been balling all night. the nikka stunk up the court all game and then turns into a mental midget at the end

as a spur fan, this shyt is frustrating to watch. we're supposed to be the veteran team but we stay making rookie mistakes at the end of games. i really wish we would have kept cory joseph over patty mills. i know a lot of nikkas like patty, but cojo was always better imo.

Its no excuse breh i dont get it either Leonard was aggresive going to the rim he should had the ball those last possesions

Obviously they HAVE to win thursday its a tall fukking task but I have faith

I think its BS that he couldn't even make the 2nd All-Defensive team
