Thread: 2012 NBA Western Conference Finals - Thunder vs. Spurs

    Picking San Antonio in this series 4-2. If we play our best, 4-3. I just can't see us winning it, unless we hit 55% of our shots and our defense stifles them for a season low fg %. Don't misinterpret this post. Love my Thunder but the Spurs are our meat grinder! I sincerely hope I'm wrong cause whoever wins this series, I firmly believe will be the team to win it all.

    With regard to the article, Haters Gonna Hate. Dude can't even spell Lakers correctly....hypocrite.

    Thank you! I will miss Stan! Best coach Magic ever had! I will not miss Otis however! Looking forward to the new coach and general manager search!

    The good fortune of going up against the hottest team in the league, veteran and well coached...Yikes

    Would be a little more optimistic if we had home court advantage but unfortunately we don't. I think Spurs in 6 sounds about right

    Hey, I'm new here but I'm a long-time NBA fan - Spurs are just monstrous right now. They've gone from a stifling defensive team to such an exciting offensive team, and the bench is as deep as anyones in the league including OKC. The d on both sides is good, but ultimately it looks like the experience from the Spurs will be the difference maker. OKC has grown up from last year though, so this is going to be an exciting series 4 - 2 to the Spurs.

    I've been hearing that Shaq may become y'alls new GM; how do you feel about that?

    Agree with both of you. We'll probably give them the toughest round in the playoffs but we'll still fall just a little short, again. Hope I'm wrong though.

    Spurs in five or seven. Don't see us losing an elimination game at home.

    4-3 Thunder.
    All games decided by under 9 points.
    Thunder seems turnover immune after game 1.
    And oh yeah, blue unicorns in row five, every game.

    Back to reality.
    Spurs in five, dagnabit

    I'm either going insane or I had a premonition! Had several re-occurring dreams the last couple of nights that the Thunder would be up 3-0 before anything is said. Probably insane, but it would be awesome!

    I don't know about that but we sure need to win one of these first two games away.

    I had a dream today that Spurs-Thunder game was tied 96-96 and Kevin Durant hit the 2 pointer buzzer beater game winner with 1.5 seconds left and won 98-96 and what do you know, the Thunder scored 98 points today! Pretty crazy!

    That was a pretty easy call to make at about the time you posted this lol

    Folded down the stretch like the Mavs and Lakers did against us...Didn't run into great defense just couldn't hit anything...Oh well no one should be too surprised with the outcome

    Here is my take. We didn't play 'bad' but we didn't have a break out game by anyone. Other then that one stretch where we couldn't buy a basket, we played good. They had a really good game by Ginaboli (However it is spelled). I think the two teams are so evenly matched that each game will go to which ever team has a player that steps up and has a really good, break out, game.

    Ginobli definitely was the 6th man last night. We can't let them have another 39 point quarter ever. Do that and even with a dry spell, we beat 'em.

    As bad OKC played on offense (Westbrook and Harden) and going 4 minutes without scoring in the 4th quarter AND giving up 39 points in the 4th, we only lost by 3 pts. If Durant and Westbrook don't miss 2 dunks we win by one.

    And if Harden doesn't hit that meaningless three at the last second, we lose by six. So what?

    I am just saying the Thunder were competitive and if everyone just plays an average game (based on seasonal averages) OKC has a good chance to win tonight. It isn't like OKC got blown out and has no hope of winning the series.

    Can we win tonight? Sure, I guess so. But the Spurs have lost four times in their last 37 games. Do you really think we're gonna beat them in four out of the next six? Honestly?

    We will have to play some of the best basketball of the season to win this series. San Antonio is a damn good team and can win on any floor. Are we out of it? Not at all, but we have our work cut out for us.

    That 4th quarter has been more the norm than the first three quarters for SA during their streak.
