I really don't want that. I want OKC preserved for your in' ass.
Which team can give Methlahoma a stiffer challenge in the 2nd round, tbh?..

clippers probably, monkeyball won't fear ibaka in the paint at the very least but i'd still put my $ on the north dallas team over monkeyball tbh. WCF featuring spurs & north dallas thunder is gonna be epic imho
Neither tbh, but if I had to pick I'd prolly go with the Clippers, unless the Grizz suddenly find their 2011 groove.
Clips.
Playoff Chris Paul is scary. Only reason he didn't carve up the Spurs was because he was banged up.
Both teams are easy work at the moment. Give us the Spurs already partner.
@ methlahoma
same thoughts here. Clippers would be a better challenge, but OKC beats either of 'em anyway
The Clippers wouldn't be an easy clean at that point. Frankly, they're on the cusp. Billups changes them, settles them, transforms them.
He'll take them with him.
Clipps. Memphis can't score enough to realistically give them a shot tbh.
He's averaging 20 points and 10 assists in his playoff career, which is surprising, because GNSF insist he's a playoff choker and thatElite PG Tony Parker
is better because he dominated B

n in the Finals once....
We're talking about who would be more of a challenge or who would give any challenge? I don't think there is an answer to the latter, but to the former I'd like to see Memphis, always loved the playoff rivalry we got going with them.
Clippers are a top 4 offense and a top 8 defense...much more balanced than the Grizzlies(#17 offense, #2 defense) BUT they're worse than OKC at both ends of the court(OKC is #1 offense, #4 defense).
Obvious answer has to be the Clippers...but neither team has a chance against OKC. Clippers will at least take one or two games from them - I don't think the Grizzlies have enough firepower to win a single game in a potential 2nd round series with the Thunder.
CP3 is solid, but he has the talent around him to not need to be a prolific scorer. As he goes they go, and that's not conducive to winning a ring. He's savvy as well, reminds me of a younger Billups except Billups was a chucker. Paul seems to pick his spots.
I actually srsly think the Clippers can rattle this OKC team... I know, Vinny, yada yada yada... but if they come out on a high note from the Memphis series, watch out
Funny how some think Grizz if they'd find their 2011 form would challenge today's OKC. Heck, the younger inexperienced 2011 OKC beat 2011 Grizzlies what makes you think 2011 Grizz will beat today's OKC? As for the question, Clippers.
memphis has no chance whatsover, they have no real offense.
Culburn has been extra ornery lately. I wonder what's wrong...
I think that stems from the '08 playoffs where Paul deferred to Jannero Pargo in the 4th quarter of game 7 against the Spurs.
...Pau lost his 13th consecutive playoff game without Kobe.
Yeah, and Parker had to be bailed out by Speedy Claxton in '03.... Parker's lucky to have had Pop, prime Manu, prime Timmy, Horry, Bowen, etc.... put CP3 on those Spurs teams and I'm convinced you repeat at least once....
The Clippers would stand the better chance. Memphis plays better defense and would be more physical, but ultimately they can't score to keep up with OKC. L.A. at least has the talent to keep the games tight.
No arguments from me there.
Though this mother er has never done a ing thing except look good not doing it.
He's a living, breathing example of symbolism over substance.
