You people are amazing. Like a national NBA analyst is going to deliberately pick a team he doesn't actually believe is going to win the series, purely just to spite a completely indifferent Tony Parker.
Get. F*cking. Real.
Oh no! Someone picked AGAINST the Spurs!
Damn, chill the out. It's sad how one mans opinion can make another person so butthurt

"OKC can sweep the Spurs! They already beat two former champs. Just one more to go!"
loooooooooool
espn predictions are now 8:4 (SA:OKC). and just for the record, brent barry actually picked spurs to win on nba tv.
OKC has all the pieces to win a couple of rings in the next 5 years.. With all the hype on Lebron Durant may be the guy collecting the chips..
Not yet though..![]()
If you guys do beat us it would help the summer go better if you won it all...
Yeah, I'm pretty sure everyone agrees that the offseason will suck less as long as the winner of this series takes care of business in the finals.![]()
I think he is just giving his honest opinion although I don't agree it. The Thunder are playing good basketball right now as well...this is going to be a good series. I see it the other way around though with the Spurs winning in six.
We here on Spurstalk spend a lot of time in an environment where the Spurs are heavily discussed and probably get a little more credit than they deserve. Barry is in the same situation at ESPN/ABC for the Lakers and the Thunder. Seriously, give the guy a break.
lol who gives a fuk what he says it's only his opinion
Well, if the Thunder win, I hope they crush the Heat in the Finals. I just hope OKC fans won't be too obnoxious about it.
I never asked anyone before until now but who is the chick in your sig
Not surprising. He's been bashing and against SA for a couple years. even if the Spurs were undefeated all season with all 20+ blowouts, he'd still pick OKC.
I just tune out what Jon Barry has to say about SA since it's always biased. Just like I don't listen to what Skip Bayless has to say about 90% of the stuff he talks about since his opinion never changes no matter what information is given to him.
Well, his brother actually picked the Spurs (though somewhat reluctantly)

If your butt hurt by JBs pick, decide to create a thread about it. You deserve to be insulted imo. /thread
Someone is gonna over pay for Ibaka. When he's gone the defense of this team will collapse and it will affect this team greatly.
Depends on how Spur-like the Thunder really turn out to be. Lots of Spurs have taken less to stay with the team. It's possible Ibaka will do the same there.
JB has good taste. It better go 6 cause if it goes 7, the Spurs will win.
Seriously guys, a 5-page thread on Jon Barry's opinion? It's Jon Barry... Ugh.
Barry knows Spurs are better team,but doesn't have it in his heart to pick them.
Tony Parker needs to porked him.
