    In two games so far, we haven't played our best and we're still up 2-0. We played a horrible game 2 and still found a way to win. Ryan Anderson is a combined 0-11 3FG in both games. Can you imagine this team when we start playing to our potential and really start clicking? :eek:

    The numbers are clear, Playoff Beverley is amazing. Playoff Lou appears to finally be more like regular season Lou. With multiple creators in addition to Harden now (Gordon and Lou), playoff Beverley really emerging as a threat on both sides of the ball (his floater is like Rafer on steroids), and Ryan Anderson due to come into form, I can see us giving Golden State a LOT of problems. Don't forget Durant is injured too. We may even have Dekker's hustle by then. Also, one testicle Nene will destroy Zaza/JaVale down low. I like our chances.

    How about we talk about winning 2 more against OKC first... Then maybe we can talk about the Spurs.

    GS? We haven't even gotten past OKC securely. Much less even tallking about San Antonio, which will be at least a 6 game series at minimum unless we dont show up.

    You guys get way too ahead of yourselves.

    The Spurs are in trouble when the refs stop ROOKING the Grizzlies. That series will go at least 6 games. We'll have some nice rest before the I-10 showdown. We'll dispose of them just like we did in 1995. By the way, can you believe this will be the first time we've played the Spurs in the playoffs since 1995??? It's pretty nuts how two historically successful franchises in the same conference haven't been matched up in the playoffs in 22 years.

    Reeko! :/

    We have a chance bro. Just need to not think about them. We have to win 2 more vs OKC and then try to win an uphill battle vs spurs.

    A lot of ground to cover before they are worth thinking about

    @DonKnock, add this man to your list of doubters.
    @FTW Rockets FTW is at 24 hour fitness working on his shot right now because i lit him UP the last time we played. @Pen15clubber is helping him train by rebounding all his bricks and feeding them back to him!

    I want to believe that we could beat GS in a series, I really do. I agree tho, it's too early to start thinking about them.

    There is a 35% chance that this might be the real Bruce Bowen...

    We'll make it interesting in a couple games until the 4th q. Hard to overcome 4 all stars, the refs, the NBA . then Prob get blown out twice. Harden breaks his playoff turnover record and the threes don't fall.

    4-1 GSW
