I agree the Spurs got HCA will adjust just in case KD goes off again, which I don't see happening. Spurs were outplaying OKC for three quarters and know what it takes to win in either arena. They will be fine tbh
And, don't get me wrong. I still think The Spurs are favored in a best of 3 with HCA, but I won't be surprised to see OKC get a 14-0 free-throw advantage again in the first quarter like in game two to keep them "in it". Then all it takes is a little bad luck, godmode Westbrook or Durant, or a cold-Aldridge...and o upset.
HCA is no panacea.
Hyperextension in the second half. I think he missed all his shots after that.
TBH, all the Durant free agency talk is all crap. If anyone knows Durant and his story, they should know he's about as loyal as they come. He's not going anywhere but OKC. I guess it will give us something to talk about though.
Kanter hit Kawhi's knee when he was falling to the floor in the 4th quarter, since then he looked like .
Use some of your personal energy and grit to open up a bottle of Drain-O and consume it. That is all.
I know what you mean, if KD plays like this 2 more games, all bets are off... but the reality is that generally we get better production at home from our guys and the whistle is normally more friendly...
Not a guarantee, but I much rather have HCA than not, and the Spurs have shown to be pretty stellar at home this season. No reason to doubt they'll continue to be.
I never understood the "Spurs in 5" predictions. This series always had at least 6 written all over it and the Spurs losing 1 at home probably clinches 7, though I actually like their chances of winning a second on the road now far more than I did before the series.
This feel like a repeat of '08, only the big three (and a few others, of course) are now the old guys. They'll probably gut this one out, but go into the Conference Finals dead legged and lose in 5.
I hope they all get going man, we need a big game from them in game 5 or else it will be another down to the wire anyone can win type of game.
I didn't say he was their star. You attempted to bring up strength of opponent. The opponent wasn't at full strength. Bogut is a formidable big. OKC bigs are killing us. Duncan is in decline, and we don't have much in the way of bigs behind him. That's a pretty relevant set of cir stances. Add to that, OKC, again, has beaten us, so what our record is against the teams that can't beat us at home is just that. The record against the teams that can't beat us at home. OKC can beat us. These are not just random trials. Opponent matters.So Bogut is the Dubs star now?
Not saying we're better than the Dubs, but we definitely have beat every other team at home all season long. 40 games is not a fluke.
Something about "I guess that's why they play the games". We'll just have to wait. They just can't make it easy on us viewers.
But *you* brought up "Milwaukee in February" like we were beating crappy teams. We beat the Thunder 3 times at home this season.
And yeah, how well you've played against the entire league does matter. OKC isn't really that great of a team when you look at the NBA as a whole. I'm not sure they're better than the Cavs, and obviously they're not better than the Dubs. They're certainly a top 5 team, but IMO, they have no shot at a championship (even if they beat us and advance).
without that game 2 collapster , this would be over
Beiber and Junior up theyre sound like a bunch of whiny gots. Your parents must be so proud.
The Spurs have looked like in all games except for 1. Game 3 felt more like the Thunder lost it than the Spurs won it. Not sure where all this false confidence is coming from.
This of course Amuseddaysleeper is overreacting like he has all season. Durant will come down to earth, and OKC will be screwed if that happens.
Without a gritty game 3 win, the Spurs would be on the verge of being eliminated.
Perspective is a .
Westbrook is like Kobe. He can't sustain the passing version of himself for more than one game.
He eventually turns back into the hulk and hurts even the ones he loves.
True. I did bring up Milwuakee. (I just pulled it outta my ass. I don't know they played M in F, just using random scrub stat padding home win team.) That doesn't mean the Dubs victory was as telling as some may think.
I think it's also fairly well accepted that the West was weaker than usual this year. And, while it's true that there are only a few contenders every year, I think it's more so this year. Maybe not. But, a 67 and 72 win season team in the same season might be some evidence of that.
I hope you're right, and we beat them both times at home, as our record implies they should. I will be glad to have worried about these things unnecessarily.
Westbrick is a straight up loser. He was arguing with his teammates like a little and he picked up a second T in this series tonight. F'in .
It's a best out of three series with Spurs playing two games at home, and have outplayed OKC throughout most of the series tbh, and Spurs have the ability to play even better. Calm down
And, I didn't say we couldn't beat them. Only that they can beat us. They have, even if they stole/were handed one.
If he has a Tony type game & OKC gets blownout in Gm 5 then he's going to go full chuck mode in Gm 6.
Pretty muchIt's a best out of three series with Spurs playing two games at home, and have outplayed OKC throughout most of the series tbh, and Spurs have the ability to play even better. Calm down
Ballooned-assed got posters advocating for others to get bolded in desperate hopes that they'll get bolded themselves. ing low life imbeciles
