Call your shot! The Wolves and Spurs are currently tied for the 3rd seed (1-24-2018) with the Spurs trending down and the Wolves trending up. Kawhi's latest injury setback seems to spell trouble for the machine down in San Antonio. Meanwhile, the Thunder have slowly crept up from a team that looked like it could fall out of the playoffs entirely to now sitting just two games back in the loss column of the 3rd seed. Then of course, our Rockets sit comfortably (for now) in the 2 seed. Who ya got?
I say Wolves, but the more realistic scenario is the Spurs. Wolves always seem to do well early in the season and then disappear, but this is obviously a muchhhhhh improved team with a good coach.
They have 5 guys averaging 34 minutes or more a night. He basically run an 8 man rotation and in blowouts moves it to 10 guys.
would love to meet tpups in the 2nd round. aside from butler, they have dumb players and will be lucky to win more than a game against us. but i think kawhi comes back after all-star break and sperms go on a run to finish the season.
Between SA, MIN, OKC, we gonna first round matchup will be sexy. Then that winner likely has to go against the Warriors?!?!
