While I think the Cippers are a better match-up for us, there's part of me that wants OKC just so games don't start at 10pm (I'm getting old, I guess).
We'd have a fair fight against the Clippers. OKC is the ref-coddled stain of the league.
We probably match up better with the Clippers, but at this stage, you gotta beat anybody that's in front of you... I've said all season that if the Spurs are playing like last year, I like our chances against OKC... The last 4 games have been encouraging in that regard...

thinking the Clips ever had a chance in this series
mfs swear on their life the refs don't cheat for the thunder.
I'd make fun of you but everyone already s on you in the club . I kind of just feel bad for you. Tbh.
The Spurs would walk through LAC playing at their current levels, tbh. That'd be nice, since they'd have a date with Miami waiting for them again, but it's going to be OKC. I know that the regular season doesn't really mean anything in the playoffs (again, let's look at the Spurs being 10-0 against the Mavs before Game 2 and having a record against Portland before Games 1-3) but OKC's record against SA is the most discouraging of the three. SpurPadre brings up a good point - Jackson was offloaded after 2012 and he was pretty big for the Spurs in that 2012 WCF series. Where do his points and intangibles come from? Mills and Marco? Will either of those two really step up in a series where their shots are being chased frantically by OKC's athleticism? SJax could bury a clutch 3 even if you attached a car battery to his balls.
OKC's favorite thing in the world is donkey stomping the Spurs, and they're built to do it. Athletic shot blockers to disrupt Duncan and Splitter (who are never, ever as aggressive down low as Griffin and Jordan are), a parasite of a turnover creator in Westbrook, and a sniper of a clutch shooter in Durant, who also sells fouls to refs like he's at a farmer's market. The Spurs' game plan hasn't worked against OKC in two seasons, even with Harden gone. OKC chases shooters off the line, mauls post players, and disrupts passing lanes with their speed. Splitter isn't fast enough or good enough to avoid foul trouble to keep up with Durant, and Leonard can only do so much on him, which leaves Westbrook pretty much free to do all the monkey he pounds his chest over like the Neanderthal he is.
The Spurs can beat OKC, but they haven't looked capable of really doing it since 2012, imo.
this is gold coming from the moron who got called the out for making the tiest, Manu fest of a postgame grades thread in existence
going to lose to Dallas
So what did you with the cats?
It would be nice to get revenge on two teams in the same season.
Today I called maintenance to fix my closet door that continued to fall off in my ty apartment. In doing so, I accidentally slipped out that I had two pet cats. I woke up from a nap to see that I received a default on my lease stating I need to get rid of my cats or else I would receive a fee.
This apartment has been horrible. It's nice and right by campus, however, there has been multiple issues with the apartment. I also have no interest in removing my cats from the premises. I can pay a fee of $300 and keep ONE cat, but that seems not likely because these two cats are related and they cannot be separated.
I am pondering not paying the fine and getting evicted. I am a college student; therefore I am broke and cannot afford to pay all these stupid ass fees and continue paying rent. I am sure I'm not the only one that has been through this, so I need advice on the best possible option and/or what I should do or if I'm not making the 'smart' decision.
If you guys need any more information, I will be happy to give it to you.
My favorite part of that Clipper win was . . .
Westbrook hopping around like barefoot on hot cement after he missed that last three.
Just move out. Find another place, you will get used to the new place.
spurs got a better chance beating the clippers than okc
but this clippers team isnt mentally weak like the past clippers team in the past couple of years
Damn that was a good game against OK VS CLIPPS>> Happy it will be a 7 game series now.
Not only is the Clippers matchup much, much easier, but I'd love for the Spurs to be the team that eliminates that piece of Tom Rivers, tbh..
As a minority, I'd be very proud(from a hoops perspective) if my favourite team eliminated Tom Rivers, it would be the 2nd best outcome behind winning the championship..
Still unconvinced it will go 7. OKC has looked like the best team. They had a bad collapse but The Clippers were getting hammered early and often. They were down 12 but it felt more like 25. The Thunder were scoring every other possession while the Clippers were scoring on about 1/3 of theirs.
The Clippers need more help on the wing defensively to really become a le contender. They will probably lose game 5 in OKC and game 6 is a toss up.
