NBA: Which WC first round matchups would you most like to see?

[SupremeGuy]

Holy , the Mavs have a chance to make the playoffs? Haven't found them relevant in two years. That'd be a great warmup for the Spurs, tbh.

[Jacob1983]

My Mavs are the last team to beat the Heat in the playoffs. Spurs pussied out against them in the Finals but not my Mavs. I love that.

[elmanutres]

Spurs would beat Portland. OKC would murder the Spurs.

idk dude. Portland scares me. Portland has consistently kicked our asses the past couple years even when they sucked ass. And I'm not saying going against okc will be easy. You are talking about a potential 7 game series were we are both closely even or them sweeping us. We ain't sweeping okc that's for sure. Back in 2012 i said to myself the spurs are done cause they had a spurs killer in harden in their team. He's the guy that killed the spurs that series. But when he left, all it meant was that okc became beatable. Like i said, I can only hope Portland's lack of playoff experience get s to them. If i know that will happen for sure then yea i'll go against portland. But we won't know until it really happens.

I want to see my Mavs play the Blazers in the first round. I think out of the Spurs, Thunder, and Blazers, my Mavs would have the best shot of an upset against the Blazers. The Blazers are pretenders.

I'd love to see that, too, but Old Man Duncan could be wearing Depends and drinking Metamucil and he'd still dominate our frontline.

Yeah Spurs should win, but I still want to see TP getting exposed

[sook]

Memphis, OKC, and LAC I want no part of. LAC would be the most preferrable out of all of them but still..

[ezau]

Why would Spurs fan want any part of OKC this year?

True. Spurs should stay away from OKC until the WCF, tbh. In a perfect world, the Spurs should play against Dallas (first round), Memphis (second round), and OKC (WCF). Of course, it would even be better if another team takes down OKC in the earlier rounds, but I just don't see it.

[Leon Black]

Houston vs Dallas
GS vs SA (GSW wins in 5)

[Kamnik]

Those are all great matchups and I would watch all of them. East is pointless until conference finals as always

Basically this... East is boring beyond measure in regular season and also in the playoffs until the conference finals.

In the west... top 10 teams all play good (watchable) basketball.

[JohnnyMax]

LAC vs Dal - They seem to hate eachother
LAC vs Mem - Rematch
LAC vs Golden State - They hate eachother from regular season meetings

OKC vs Spurs - Every Spurs fans nightmare. Reggie Jackson is the new Spurs killer.
OKC vs Hou - Chimp vs Beverley
OKC vs LAC - Spear chucker vs Griffin

Spurs vs Portland - someone mentioned these guys own you
Spurs vs Golden State - Rematch
Spurs vs Miami - I know its not Western conference but I would love to see this rematch

Lol @ people thinking the Spurs are going to lose to any of the teams. We will not be denied this year tbh The big three's first finals loss is just going to light a fire under then. The role players too, even Mills, who was on the bench. They were so close, I don't see them going down, barring injury.

[Rogue]

Guest team dropping to #5 is bad news for teams on the lower half of playoff table (since the guest team is "clearly" the easiest potential opponent among the top 4 teams (if not all 8 playoff teams), but the good news is their place has been ceded to the Lockets, rather than Mavs or Monkeyball.

I'm happy with the current standings anyway, and I wish the regular season will end this way so in the first round alone we'll be able to post this gif at least 4 times (if not in a row)

I fear it like the plague, but, not quite as much as rabies.

[Trainwreck2100]

Clipps vs Memphis is always hilarious
