how big of a deficit will the spurs face in game 3?

[td4mvp3]

seems like heading back to okc will at the very least give the thunder a boost and they'll come out hot. how hot, do you suppose?

I'm not sure the home court will be that much of a difference for OKC, other than an energy boost. The Spurs have yet to play a complete game in this series, maybe game 3 is the game to fire on all cylinders for four quarters?

[SpursRock20]

Spurs will start off slow, Ginobili will come in and slow the bleeding, and it will be a grind it out style of game the rest of the way with the Spurs pulling it off with a Leonard dunk from the half court line a la Michael Jordan from Space Jam.

Probably get down 10 early, the Thunder stretch that out to 16, and then it settles into a back-and-forth affair. Spurs either squeeze it out in the last minute or lose by 5-ish.

[spursfan1000]

I'd say okc will get a 16 point lead early 1st half but spurs will go into half down by around 10..spurs by 3

[eyeh8u]

so many debbie downers on the spurs boards, they go to a 6-0 lead, then green/kawhi hit a three, duncan 2, parker 2 points plus foul. score 8-6 spurs, thunder never retake the lead.

[ginobilized]

Thunder will not lead by more than 22.
The precedent has been set to comeback from that deficit.

Bring it on, OKC!

Whatever happens will only add to the legend of the 2012 Spurs.

Wow, that's a lot of 3 pointers to make up with.

[DJB]

I'm predicting an overtime game.

Spurs will win this, no matter the details.

Ken Mauer in Miami.....spurs may sweep this thing.

[Spurs and Mavs fan]

If the Spurs lead 58-40 at the half, then, a deficit of -18 points.

What are this weeks lotto numbers??

[OZWIN]

Spurs will lose game three although I want them to win...but they will win this series in six games.

To answer your question...the Thunder are going to come out ready to go and OKC has a pretty loud building...going with OKC in game three.

Nonetheless...the Spurs are looking to continue to win and keep the streak going so you never know.

Unless Brooks changes his starting line up by sitting Perkins I don't think the Spurs will start off slow. I think the first quarter will be close for the first 6 to 8 minutes.

[Twisted_Dawg]

OKC will be "gifted" 40-45 FTs so it will be difficult to overcome.
