    Winner of this series could get the Warriors minus curry or the Blazers.

    I said OKC in 7, but it could go either way.

    Leonard - KD matchup is going to be so good. If Westbrook plays under control and makes smart decisions, SA better watch out.

    before leonard, the thunder could overwhelm the spurs with athleticism and the spurs just had execution and poise to battle back with (well, and a lot of talent). but now leonard can neutralize kd. and he won't even have to do much if kd plays like he did against dallas. he forced too much and wasn't as on target as he usually is. he'll need to be better to even out the fact he's going against kawhi to give okc a chance.

    maybe okc can just maul them on the boards. apparently they outrebounded them by 10 a game in the regular season matchup. but i don't see okc winning. spurs in 5.

    > Game was like 2, 3, 4 years ago?
    > Looked like KD fell down, and there wasn't a lot of time remaining
    > I did say "if." lol

    tbh, Cube's comment is probably still going to be doing damage. WB thinking he can go hero mode is asking the spurs to sweep.

    Barkley said, "When I go to Oklahoma, I'm going get some big ole steaks, when I get to San Antonio, I'll get some big ole women"

    I'm rooting for the Thunder. I hate the Spurs and am sick and tired of that team. Plus I love the idea of neither the 73-win Warriors nor the 67-win Spurs winning the title this season.

    Why? Seems like a strange stance to take, without context.
