    For all the dancing Cameron Payne does on the bench, he's not a good player at all....

    Clearly Lin wasn't guarding Lamarcus well enough.

    Like how 78-104, 94-121, 81-114 didn't happen. Sure dubs are younger so they don't stay focused as much. Result... same.

    Yeah, we lucked out to face one of the juggernauts who lost their best player...and still pretty much got destroyed.

    If you already didn't know, Thunder's window is closing fast. They didn't anticipate Spurs reloading with Aldridge or Kawhi being that good and GS being that good as well. I really wonder what would have happened if they kept Harden

    What the 1st game, and the success of the Spurs, the Warriors, tells the world that basketball is a team sports, the collection of individual players doesn't mean winning the game.

    From 2 years ago. Before Durant basically missed all of last year. Interesting read about championship Windows.

    Spurs are amazing, just every single year it's them old fellas and the new silent killer Kahwi + Aldridge just puts them over the top. They will be champs I reckon. This is why I didn't want that 7th seed.

    Man, who was the delusional poster on here that told me the spurs were too old and wouldn't even make the playoffs this year.

    Gonna do some digging, I think we had a bet going too lmao

    Look, Spurs also possibly make mistakes.

    But they have a great coach Pop who could make adjustments.
