I just have a feeling like the Spurs can beat the Warriors. They always seem to go unnoticed and then magically win yet another championship.

That's the only team I give a good shot to beat them. And I mean a really good shot.

I like Steve Kerr a lot. I just don't see him out coaching Pop. The Spurs don't have an answer for Steph. But the Warriors have no answer for Aldridge and Leonard either.

True story

Spurs looked so dominate today.

 

[Spencerdl]

Well, the Warriors win without Curry. No surprise there.

 

[Spencerdl]

WOW. The Spurs just scored 43 points in the first quarter (New NBA Playoff record). They came to play

 

[WeAreAllUnique]

The Spurs are a superior team.

The Spurs are a superior team.

Yes. I agree

 

[WeAreAllUnique]

Yes. I agree

Helps when you aren't missing any shots either. Haven't seen Danny Green shoot like this in two years.

Gold State came out really strong today.

Gold State came out really strong today.

Yes indeed.

I guess since everyone is chasing Golden State now, no one wants their big men to play big anymore.

The game has moved away from the center position being the focal point (at least offensively). Everyone wants to shoot 3's these days. The style of play today is all about offense from the back court and defense from the bigs. Unless there's a mismatch in the paint or an offensive rebound, point guards rarely pass the ball to the bigs.

I hate it.

Yeah, i don't hate it, but I do prefer the old school style where the bigs were the focal point.

Wow, OKC eliminated the Spurs. I didn't see that coming. Congrats OKC.

Neither did I but I gotta say, I'm excited for OKC-GS in the West Finals. Curry and Westbrook are my 2 favorite guys to watch right now!

The Warriors vs Thunder series should be a great one. I'm looking forward to watching it. I'm still going with the defending champs to take the series.

YES, I also think it's going to be a GREAT series. I like the Warriors all the way...again

For some reason, so long as the Warriors are playing the way they are, the East will just be there to have an opponent!
