    The Thunder are good now, damn.

    I now do think that it would be better for us if they stayed in the 4/5 side of the bracket. Id rather play twolves or spurs in the 2nd round.

    OKC will be the 3 seed soon enough. That's a nightmare scenario for Houston.

    Id prefer SAS or minnie but I think we can handle OKC if we are healthy.

    They are the only team where I would give no sympathy for a big injury. Amazing how they are usually the only team that doesnt get injured every year.

    I guess steph and iggy weren’t 100% in 2016

    OKC is slowly creeping towards that 3rd spot. I’d prefer that they stayed 4th or 5th and the Spurs stayed 3rd. If Kawhi was healthy and playing at his usual MVP level then that would be a different story, but I can’t see him coming back and having superstar level impact this year.

    Roberson being out would make Harden’s life easier in a potential series tho, and no, I don’t think OKC would beat us in a series, it’s just that they’d be tougher to beat than the Spurs team we’re seeing right now and Minny who’s main guys like Wiggins and Towns have no playoff experience and are flawed players that can be taken advantage of in a series

    Half the season gone, and I still don't know how the Celtics do it.

    They win by cranking up the defense, usually in the 2nd half. This is what makes up for the bricklaying. Also, Kyrie might be the best closer in the NBA.

    Their margin for error is much smaller than their W/L record indicates.

    They don't have much chance to reach the NBA Finals unless they make a trade that perks up their offense. They work too hard to score.
