Thunder/Spurs is gonna be so fun to watch. Spurs havent lost. OKC has lost once, but they have been "battle-tested" more than the Spurs. Could that hurt the Spurs? They have been dominant.

The Eastern Conference has been so crazy and random. I still think its gonna be Heat/Celtics in the ECF.

IMO the Spurs take this. They have been the best team in basketball this year.

The 2 advantages I see for them are their 3pt shooting, and Pops has the coaching edge over Brooks.

What should scare them the most is how good Westbrook has been in the playoffs. His scoring has been consistent, and hes doing a much better job not turning the ball over.

I didn't see much in the first series, but the Lakers are perpetually bad at defending scoring point guards. I don't hate the Thunder or anything, I just think the Spurs are a level ahead.

But they play the game for a reason. Whoever wins this series aught to be NBA champ.

I'm sorry, but I think the Spurs are going to win it all (and to be honest, I wouldn't mind if it played out that way. Anyone but the Heat). There's nobody more experienced, they have just as much skill, they have a more versatile and talented bench, and they have the best coach in the league. It'll be the Thunder's time soon, and they're getting close, but they're still a little too young to compete with Popovich and the Spurs.

That was an awesome game. Neither team had a double-digit lead. Spurs execution in the 2nd half (cut down on the turnovers) was brilliant.

Ehh, I hope you are wrong. But I'm w/ you that anyone but the Heat is who I want to win. Except if the Thunder lose again this year and the Spurs become champs, I'll be pissed more than usual b/c it would be teh 3rd year in a row that OKC lost to the eventual NBA champs. Enough, man.
