I'm not worried about OKC.The Spurs and Miami will win these two series. I think the bball gods have arranged for this rematch ever since last June.
This will be the highest rated Finals in recent history.
This time, the Spurs will prevail..

:lobt2:
Another sign that this will be a 100% lock matchup :
Miami became the first team in history to win a post season series against a team that had swept them in the regular season. Previously teams were 25-0 in winning a series against a team who they had beaten 4-0 is reg season
Spurs will be the 2nd team to do this.
Fuck okc. I'm looking forward for this Finals rematch.
Weren't you the one bitching at someone else to "not count our eggs before they hatch" when he assumed that OKC would make it to the WCF as the spurs oppoonent :lmao
I think if you polled every Spurs fan, given the choice between playing a Pacers team or a Heat team, even though, Spurs would have almost a lock win against the Pacers, most fans would still want to play the Heat.Quote:

One series at a time.
Your not worried about OKC but you should be.

All I can look at is the 0-4 season record and the 2-10 record over the last two seasons. Post-Harden seasons. That and the fact that the league has now been given the two conference finals series it wanted all along, and they can still put Durant back into the Finals to start billing up that KD-LBJ rematch. Sure, a Spurs-Heat rematch sounds sexy to us, and perhaps to those casual fans who really enjoyed last season's thrilling series, but the NBA stands to do a lot better with OKC in the Finals. The Spurs will have to play flawlessly.
OKC would get swept.

Eh....it's too early for this thread. Granted if we win the first 2 games in this series, then this thread will be more fitting.
Even then, we can't possibly feel comfortable with a 2-0 lead after what happened in 2012. I won't feel comfortable unless it's 3-0.Quote:

Especially without Ibaka. The series would be an old fashioned flat out schooling of the Thunder and their one one one offense.Quote:

Another omen that this is happening:
Last time that the 4 top seeds met in Conf Finals was 2005. Spurs won their 3rd ring against Detroit.:lobt2:
Only caveat, is both Detroit and SA were 2 seeds. So hope Miami and OKC don't repeat that history.:nope
The Spurs will be the 2014 NBA Champions. Book it.

Tonight, we will see for ourselves how destiny influences this impending, inevitable rematch Finals between our beloved Spurs and the Heat.
The Spurs look shaken, and down after those two beat downs at the hands of the Thunder, but they are not out. The Spurs will play their best game of the playoffs tonight to snatch control of this series.
I believe in destiny.
come on, who's with me!!!!????
Let's get some positive feedback in here.
I think we regain control tonight. Probably a close game but home cooking will pull us through. Hopefully the refs just let the two teams play because the whistles in OKC games always favor them.
Spurs play with Pride and Power tonight and take back the lead. I feel pretty positive about it.Quote:

I need Heat to lose game 6 somehow, because when Spurs win game 7 on Monday, they only get 2 days before Finals, and Miami will get 4 days off.
It seems like Finals are early this year. Last year Spurs got 10 days off after WCFs, and in 07, they got 8 days off.
Fuck what the heat do spurs got enough to worry about with okc
Halfway there.
Tonight, the Spurs polish off the Thunder, don their WCF Champions hats, and celebrate for a short time. After landing back in San Antonio the Spurs will forget their series win and start focusing on their long awaited rematch with the team that temporarily borrowed what should have been theirs last June, the Larry O'Brien Trophy.

I won't stop watching bball, but the refs do make some tick tack fouls at times that can change the flow of the game, most will agree there. When we lose though I don't solely blame the refs at all, unless it is one unbelievable call at the end to decide it, then I get upset.Quote:

I agree it is not all the refs fault when we lose though, I never like to blame them and maybe said it one time or so after an obvious game.Quote:

OK has had our number. I feel more confident now playing Miami than I did before the OK matchup. Hopefully, that's a good thing...lol
Ditto, I've been telling all my buddies that if Spurs get to Finals, they are winning it. That is a lock, or damn close to it, barring injury to one of our key players.Quote:

There's no way in hell we lose to them again. Just Not happening.
Another coincidence, both Miami and Spurs had teams score on them in conference finals with 0.1 on clock and out of bounds play.Quote:

Well done!
True fans were all secretly thinking the same.
But few admitted it.
Last year was just too heart breaking.
Bball became meaningless.
I had to go off b-ball for almost the entire season up to the okc series...
Believe is back!
If a little late.
Better late than never.
