    Spurs are the only elite team we beat twice this season.

    OKC 0-2
    LAC 0-2

    Blazers (borderline elite) 1-1

    I'd rather face Blazers and Spurs. Clippers best players are at our 2 worst positions. So is Blazers, but I just think they are a lot less athletic.

    In a 7 game series we may not even beat the dallas mavericks... coaching matters, defense matters, running plays with real offensive sets matter, making free throws matters this team is strickly just for entertainment right now. We have some popular players not a championship team right now.

    Spurs all day and every day. These clips have always given us problems. With OKC, we can only compete with them until Durant gets motivated to win, which happens a lot more often than not

    I'd say better than OKC. I'd rather play the Clippers though.

    Doesn't really matter. We're not gonna make it to the second round.

    Every year, people start threads underestimating the Spurs based on their regular season play. Every year, Spurs turn it up in playoffs and dominate. Stop sleeping on the Spurs.

    Talking about the playoffs!? LOL!

    Wouldn't pick the Rockets in a seven-game series against the other current six playoff teams, with the exception of maybe Phoenix.
