I think it will be an easier series.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
You mean Mavs are going to crush the Blazers?
Spurs aren't winning this game today. There's still 1 quarter left to play. You just KNOW the Spurs will choke away this lead.

The Splitter/Aldridge matchup is key. If Splitter can play Dirk this well, I expect the same on LaMarcus.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
Lmao yea right, it's gonna be blazers in 5

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
Spurs needed a wake up call in the first round for them to get ready for the rest of the playoffs. I think this series against the Mavs was good for them. Especially seeing how they played to end the season.
Spurs over Blazers in 6 games.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
No bench on Portland like Dallas.
Carter,Blair, Harris killed us during the series.
Similar players, worse coach.
Spurs in 5.

I barely know you, tbh.
But go ahead, start threads like these and then jump off cliff whenever the Spurs are down. You're going to be doing that in the Portland series too.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
I have to say this is another 7 game series (if spurs are lucky)
if it goes less than 7 IMO the Blazers got this. Spurs have a 45% chance to prevail in this series.
series is a toss up. Spurs in 7 due to experience and home court

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
This is a series in which Green can play heavy minutes on Lillard, since the other guards in Portland's rotation are Williams and Matthews. So long as Pop does that, puts Leonard on Batum and uses Splitter and Diaw on Aldridge, they should be fine. However, I have a sickening feeling that Pop will revert back to his previous mentality. He may end up using Leonard on Lillard, Green on Batum (two matchups in Portland's favor) and play Beli and Mills a lot of minutes again. There's no one on Portland who can guard the Big Three, which is why I consider this to be an easier series. But if Pop limits his defenders in place of glass cannons, this could get ugly.

If it goes 7, no way we lose. It took LeBron to play crazy good to beat us IN MIAMI.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
Forget the easy series talk.
Spurs in 6 or 7.
-
Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
I just hope that we win and hit a meaningless three in Batum's face in the last game of the series.
-
Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
Spurs in 5 or 7. If the series end in 6, it's the Blazers winning.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
You guys are completely underrating the Trailblazers. They're playing awesome ball right now, and the Spurs will need to play better basketball to beat them in a series than they played against the Mavs.

And you seem to be underrating the Spurs just us much.
Spurs in 6.

Did you watch Game 7? If the Spurs play anything remotely close to how they played today, they will smash the Blazers.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
Damien Lillard is going to feast on us, we have never been able to guard him. They have essentially a bigger, lankier, more dependable jump shooting Kawhi. And LA can guard Duncan better than anyone the Mavs have, and let's not forget how ridiculous LA plays against us.

Green has been great on Lillard whenever he's been on him. The problem is that Pop doesn't like going to that matchup very often. Batum is a big guard more than he's a small forward. I don't think he and Leonard are very similar. I want LA to guard Duncan. Aldridge is a younger Dirk. The Spurs are better equipped to defend him than any team in the league.
I have no idea how people can think Portland's a matchup problem. Can they win? Sure. But they don't look better on paper at all.
-
Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
Blazers will be a tougher opponent than the mavs.
:lol @ they have the same players that the mavs without the bench.
This team is full of young leg, they have great 4th quarter players mainly Batum / Lillard
spurs will need to play with same kind of focus and intensity than during game 7

pretty accurate, Though Robinson and Williams are solid. The foreign legion should have much better series against Portland
-
Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
There's a key difference between Dallas and Portland. If Lillard=Ellis and Aldridge=Dirk, Dallas had the advantage of letting Ellis play off the ball. He was able to be a secondary creator. Lillard is both the primary perimeter creator and primary scorer. It should be much easier to shut down Lillard than Ellis because Portland can't just swing the ball and run essentially the same play with another guard. Portland is going to live or die by what Lillard can do against whomever the Spurs put on him.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
It depends on which TP we get.
-
Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
I think this first round struggle against Dallas is just what the Spurs needed, a little tune up. Tony looked fine so hopefully the ankle won't be an issue going forward.

Re: Spurs are going to crush the blazers
Every series from here on out will go 7. You should have that expectation from the outset. This Blazers team is REALLY good.
