Strike 3,947 Posted April 16, 2016 This will probably be my only post, that was one of the worst 2 on 1 breaks i have ever seen. The one where they took a missed 3? Yeah that was pathetic. Gotta get a layup or a foul there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strike 3,947 Posted April 16, 2016 It's gonna be hard to stop the Warriors. It's theirs to lose this year I think the only thing that stops them is injuries to key players. Might only be Curry. They might be able to lost any other single player, inluding Klay Thompson, and still win it all. They're that good. But the loss of Curry or multiple other players could be a problem. Absent that, I don't see how they lose. They're too good, too versatile, and too deep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Absent that, I don't see how they lose. They're too good, too versatile, and too deep. They are. Their bench is TOO deep for really anyone to give them trouble. The only team I could think that might give them trouble is the Spurs cause of their coach and their play style. Then again I am biased cause I lived heir for 7 years but I do love the way that program is run Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vince44 202 Posted April 17, 2016 I am not gonna start watching till the West Semifinals in a few weeks. Warriors vs Clippers and Spurs vs Thunder is when the playoffs start for me. The Cavs will cruise to the Finals once again and not break a sweat along the way which is gonna be boring. The first round matchups are just flat out ugly this year and there is no damn reason in the West Conf they should be best of seven cause none of them are gonna go past a Game 5. It just opens up a greater chance for an injury and screwing up the good matchups coming up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mungwater 588 Posted April 18, 2016 I don't want them to go out in the first round. Maybe Curry will tweak his ankle even more and more...

cbfalcon 824 Posted April 18, 2016 Omg - talk about a slaughter house. My Mavs are completely helpless against the Thunder. It's sad to see this happen to Dirk. And now we are without Deron Williams and Barea. Ugh. I'm not even hoping for a competitive series, as I assume OKC wins in 5. But I would like to see competitive games, simply because it's always a privilege to watch playoff-crunchtime Dirk in action. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Honcho 4,009 Posted April 19, 2016 You want to see them lose to GS in the WCF? I just hope Memphis can keep it within 17 tonight. I'd wouldn't make that bet. Since Pop sat players in 3 of the 4 games, not enough info IMO to definitely make GS anything but a slight favorite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted April 19, 2016 This is exactly why I don't book real bets - how in the fock did we pull that shiat off? I'm not sure what the line was, guessing double digits - I would of laid it on the Thunder. I heard OKC was favored by 14, and that in terms of point spread, it was the biggest playoff upset in 20 years. Now had I actually looked beforehand and seen Dallas as a 14 point underdog, I'd have bet the house on them. (I know, easy to say now). Dallas is too well coached and has too many prideful veterans to not respond well after that game 1 humiliation. And while I didn't know the following stat until today, I have watched a ton of Mavs games this year and would have a guessed something close to it: After 20 point losses this year, Dallas is 6-1...................But none of this is to say I thought the Mavs would take game 2. I just knew it would be a more competitive game, before the Thunder won by 5-7 points. That game was as fun as it gets. I was into every second of it, and on the edge of my seat with stress and excitement the entire 4th quarter. Now the logical side of me says OKC will come out determined and win a tough game 3, then have an easier time in game 4, before wrapping it up at home...................But the illogical fan in me has seen the stats that show Dallas as possibly the best "clutch" team in the playoffs (shocking, I know), and OKC as the worst. Now at home, if Dallas can keep it close until the last 5 minutes, whose to say they don't win a game 3. Then maybe the Thunder start squabbling, KD starts thinking about his next team, Russ gets mad, Waiters decides he needs to take over, and who know? Edit to add: GS is obviously the best playoff team in the clutch. But somehow Dallas is #2, while the Thunder are last. So if Dallas can just make these games close, you never know. http://www.todaysfastbreak.com/nba-west/clutch-monkey-mocks-thunder-stunning-game-2-loss/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

parrot 789 Posted April 22, 2016 Well at least GS didn't sweep thru out to the title. Good gawd, all the new, overnight Warriors fans would have been insufferable. Not because Houston didn't do everything they could to give the game away; "Hmmm, 1 point lead and 1 second left...
