Give me OKC. Let's see what they've got. Lately they've been winning close games against bad teams and losing badly to good teams. Total fool's gold that the media is buying. I want us to be the team that flattens their hopes.
I'm a little scared of SA and Utah and Por . The only thing I don't trust about our team is the coach . I think those three coaches are better or equal to MDA Stotts has made POR into a good defensive team despite having Lillard and CJ . Snyder has been pretty good early in his career . Pop is goat .
Honestly, none of these teams and definitely not scared at all but if we are choosing then Jazz cause their D and maybe Thunder if their big 4 are on.
im honestly not worried about the nuggets because they have no superstar. they have talent but no real stars IMO....so all those jumpers most likely wont be falling in the playoffs. the thunder are still the team i dont want simply because of star power. they will be a better playoffs team than regular season team simply because the rotations will be shortened and their awful bench players will have less time to get abused.
Not seeing much in regards to the Pels but I would say them for first round. Davis, with all of his team record terribleness during his tenure has the talent to put a team on his back and win a series. Mirotic and Holiday are no jokes either. Their schedule is also not that easy, they could drop to that 7/8 seed.
the blazers, thunder, and spurs are all very good at home. i think we can beat them all in a series, but i'd rather avoid going to game 6 or 7. better to advance quickly and get some rest days.
The only team I really don’t want to see in the first round is the Warriors as that means something horrible happened.
Why isnt there a none of the above choice? No one gives a hoot about these teams. They dont stand a chance against a healthy rockets team. NEXTTTTTTT
As far as, like, beating us... None. If we're talking about a tough matchup that could be a long series, I think its the Pelicans and Thunder.
Pelicans. These guys always go off against us. They all become all time great shooters and scorers when we play them. Etwan Moore just scores like crazy as does Darius Miller. Plus they are starting to get it with Davis finally playing like a alpha male.Mirotic has given them a lot of versatility on offense with his ability to spread the floor. If they had Cousins they would be a nightmare
Blazers with that backcourt tandem to go with Nurkic they can go off on anyone. It took some Harden brilliance for us to comeback from 17 down in the last quarter in Portland in December to win and the Blazers are playing a lot better now!
