On to the 2nd Rd: Spurs/OKC

I have to agree with Jimmy. He looks checked out, not broken down. He has a reduced role in the offense and does not seem content to be DeAndre Jordan (nor should he be since he worked so hard on his offensive game). I have no doubt he will have his best stretch vs SA. He loves playing SA.

But the fact that SOMETIMES he is as active as ever tells me that it's more mental than physical.

He's got a ten year old daughter. Sure he could have fathered her at sixteen, but its another indication that he might be older than we know.

Coaching/system/(lack off) also has to do a lot with the players performance. But yeah, I get what you're saying.

That's the optimistic version if Manu is not turnobili. Him and Boris is the best Spurs lineup but it depnds how manu will play. Also - you can post up Manu as well but of course not as easy as TP - Pop will decide with what we can live there.

We just need to get in the way of Westbrook's pre-game dance for four games and call him a superstar any chance we get.

Either 7:30pm or 8:30pm CDT depending on whether or not there is a Game 7 in the BOS-ATL series.
