How would Thunder/Spurs series went if Westbrook was healthy?

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Who'd have won? Or would the Griz still have advanced?

[HemisfairArena]

Spurs sweep so Thunder fans should feel fortunate. We would have done to them what we did to the Grizz. Payback is a bitch.

[maverick1948]

Spurs in 5.

[DesignatedT]

Who knows, who cares.

[TheGreatYacht]

I think the Spurs would have beat a healthy OKC just because this year's team is a much better defensive team and also because OKC doesn't have Harden anymore. The Spurs team for this year was the 2nd or 3rd best defensive team in the NBA I think.

[ViceCity84]

Spurs in 6
Thunder beating us last year was a fluke-evidenced by shellacking they received from Heat in finals
Heat beating us-not fluky-they''re that good

[spurraider21]

Spurs in 4

Heat beating us-not fluky-they''re that goodThe refs cost us Game 6 and prevented us from playing a Game 7 at our own home. I guess it was urgent for $tern and ref$ to make sure that the Thunder and Heat reached the NBA Finals. Just ask Pacers and Celtics fans. The refs screwed their teams too.

I think Memphis still would've played us in the conference finals.

Tbh, the Thunder neutered themselves with the Harden trade.

[CGD]

Don't think It would have mattered if they had Westbrook or not this year. Presti out smarted himself. Lol Lamb. Presti best pray that the 12th pick in this weak ass draft was worth it!

[SpurSpurSpurs]

Small market team that doesn't want to be over the tax? Not surprised with the trade

Spurs in 5 if they've met.

This.

But they beat the Grizz in 6.

Yet they kept Ibaka and Porkins :lol

Yet they kept Ibaka and Porkins :lol

It was delussional for them to think that having Ibaka and Perkins for defense is much better than having a player off the bench that can wreck havoc. Presti had to choose. Defense or offense?

Presti! :toast

:lol

Presti, the dumbest of the dumb tbh.

:lol at "defense" too since Tough guy congo and belly porkins got exposed by Zach and Marc which were exposed by a 37 year old Timmy

Well to be fair, 2012 West finals was Presti's counter argument about their bigs. But still, one of the dumbest trades in the past decade.

Kevin Martin! :lol

Not all teams can buy their way to a ring. There's no money in it.

Spurs would have killed them in 5. Last year OKC's two greatest weapons against the Spurs were the refs and James Harden. James Harden is gone and I doubt even Stern would have the balls to go that blatant with the officiating between those two teams for the second year in a row.

Westbrook, even healthy, has always played poorly against the Spurs. Yeah, he's had a decent game or two, but by and large he doesn't play us well. With no Harden out there and Westbrook never killing us, we would've dominated. Kevin Martin was never going to make much of a difference.

This year at least..let's see what they are able to do with the extra pick..

[JRHernandez88]

I honestly felt that we were the only team that could realistically beat Miami, but couldn't get past OKC. The stars aligned for us this year... :lobt:

[mercos]

This year's Spurs team would have beaten the 2012 or 2013 Thunder. Better defense + no more Hack-A-Splitter = no chance for the Thunder.

[HemisfairArena]

This year's Spurs team would have beaten the 2012 or 2013 Thunder. Better defense + no more Hack-A-Splitter = no chance for the Thunder.

And no Harden.

[elmanutres]

i was confident we would still beat them. I think what killed the spurs last year was that we peaked far too early in the playoffs and the thunder revved up as soon as we ran out of gas. plus the thunder had a guy named james harden. and lastly, we were screwed in game 6. we could've gone to 7 games last year but the league said otherwise. But after harden left, i knew we would win the west. I think we could've won in 6. course now that westbrook is hurt, thunder fans want to put a asterisk on us and say we were lucky westbrick was hurt. :bang

[BillMc]

This year's Spurs team would have beaten the 2012 or 2013 Thunder. Better defense + no more Hack-A-Splitter = no chance for the Thunder.

I agree.

[Prime Time]

Are you kidding? Green splashing buckets' and Leonard playing a much more all-around presence, And the fact OKC was mainly a jumpshooting team this year, Would have been Spurs in 5.

[dg7md]

Losing Harden did them in more than Westbrook, it seems like that entire team has lost a lot of what made them so great and unstoppable.

However, Harden is more easily replaceable than Westbrook, but I still don't think the Thunder would have posed a serious threat this year to us regardless.
