Clippers or OKC

[DAF86]

What happened? Don't feel like spinning tonight?

[Kawhitstorm]

C'mon Kawhitstorm, let me hear the excuses for tonight's game. I know your irrational need of trying to convince yourself you can't ever be wrong won't dissapoint.

Let me know the last time Randy Foye outscored Danny/Tim or Waiters outscored WestBrick in a playoff game. #Fluke

I ing hope so. Either way, the case was already proven.

[DAF86]

Great ing call dumbasses. Great ing call

I knew this team were frauds all season and that the Thunder were far closer to them than most thought, but they should still be embarrassed.

I guess the five championships, accomplished mostly without superior talent has blinded the masses, but this is the worst big game home team, in terms of teams of their caliber, ever.

It took me about 5 seconds to realize they weren't winning this game and I never wavered despite the fools gold lead.

This guy spending all season long writing walls of words to come up with imaginary scenarios that explained how a matchup with OKC would be a piece of cake.

[DAF86]

In before " but the flukes ", " but the chokes "

Props to WestBrick for making clutch shots while Porker choked.

I was WRONG about Softridge, dude is a ass loser. We are arguing about nothing anyways, the journey would have ended in the WCF which ever path they took.

[kobyz]

Spurs just can't beat the same team in a series two times in a row...

Aldridge had 2 monster games, 1 good game and 2 so-so games (he still got about 20 pts in both games. It's not like he completely dissapeared) that should have been enough to have already won the series, or be ahead, if the matchup would have been as easy as you thought it would be.

Why does DAF keep bumping this? The real story is Spurs would have lost to either team with this pathetic showing.

[Robz4000]

Spurs would've been eviscerated by the Clippers tbh; if Pop got outcoached this badly by Scottie Donovan, Uncle Tom Rivers would've done worse.

Basically, if the Spurs can't guard OKC's PnR then good luck stopping Cp3/Blake (assuming they were healthy) along w/ DeAndre rolling to the rim & pounding the offensive glass. They also had a dependable third scorer in Re & Rivers/Crawford/Aldrich would have feasted on Patty/Manu/D-Worst.

The Clippers with all their players would have waxed san Antonio in 5.

First off, I said OKC would BETTER matchup than the Cripples not a in' cakewalk. (I only said it would be a 5 game series after the ass whoopin' that took place in Gm 1 which came as a surprise)

Second, Tim being crippled has had a HUGE impact on the series. (If you told me D-Worst would be playing as many minutes as Tim then I would have had second thoughts)

Justice will be served in the WCF!

Exactly. DAF bumping this like it means anything. If the Blazers beat the Clippers at full strength (assuming Paul and Blake never went down), then I could agree they were a fluke and that OKC is a scarier matchup. Spurs have beaten themselves more in this series than OKC has figured them out. The Clippers would have just beaten the Spurs.

They aren't.

No, they wouldn't have lost to the ing Clippers. There was absolutely no chance of that happening.

[Kawhitstorm]

They aren't.

The 2013 Grizz would be a terrible matchup w/ the current frontline rotation.

Said the same thing about this mediocre Thunder team, yet here we are.

Nothing of what you say is remotely close to being true, and I will list the reason why one last time. Take notes please, so you won't keep repeating the same re ed after I'm done.

Reasons why the Clippers weren't a tougher second round matchup than the Thunder:

1-First of all and most obvious one: Clippers are not in the ing second round. Yeah, I know that the premise is to supposse they would have been healthy BUT, when was the last time the Clippers got healthy to the second round of the playoffs? Yeah, that's right: never.

2-The Thunder are a better team than the Clippers. They had a better record, a way better pts differential, more depth and better players.

3-Star power. KD and Westbrook are guys that can single-handedly win a game or two by themselves. Paul and Griffin aren't really capable of doing that.

4-Mental strength. OKC, thanks to KD and Westbrook, are compe ive monsters. The Clippers, and its stars, have always proved to be mental midgets.

5-Revenge factor. OKC has that over the Spurs, the Spurs had that over the Clippers. The human mind is probably the most powerful thing in the World, and you are kidding yourselves if you think this doesn't play a factor. There was absolutely no way that Pop, Tim, Manu, Tony and Kawhi would have let themselves lose against the ing Clippers for the second time in a row.
