April 14, 201610 yr Only the Spurs can put together the 4th greatest season in NBA history, record wise, and go under the radar like they have.
April 14, 201610 yr Really strange to have two historically dominant teams in the NBA at the same time. I don't see anyone that can beat the Warriors or the Spurs over a seven game series apart from each other. It'll be a fun playoff.
April 14, 201610 yr If I had to pick a third team that could win a title, I go with OKC. Nothing shocking there, but I do think they have an legitimate shot of pulling off an upset.

Gonna be hard to go through both the Spurs and Warriors for OKC. An eastern conference team would only have to beat one. I like the Spurs to win it all. They have something they haven't shown yet for OKC, they always do.
April 14, 201610 yr Author I am still not counting out the fighting LeBrons. You got to get there first, and their path should be smoother.
April 14, 201610 yr I am still not counting out the fighting LeBrons. You got to get there first, and their path should be smoother. If they can get there, maybe. I really worry about Miami. That would be the type of matchup LeBron might have a meltdown against. I think he's past that, but how can you tell? I believe that he would rather see GS as the Spurs, given their history. However, the Spurs may be significantly more tired by that point, if OKC can give them a series, because I think most see the Spurs having to really go to war to beat GS. Cleveland found some success against GS last year and can replicate some of that, however, what they needed in terms of offense will likely kill them defensively as Irving is bad defensively, and Love would defend better by simply getting out of the way and hoping his man trips over his own feet.
April 14, 201610 yr I've thought all along that the Spurs would win the West...watching the Warriors a little more the last month, I'm not sure. I think the Warriors will win over Spurs in 5 or 6 games.
April 14, 201610 yr I'll be shocked if the Spurs can beat the Warriors in 7 games. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the Spurs not even make the Western Conference Finals. I don't think it is a lock for them.
April 14, 201610 yr As someone mentioned earlier, the #2 or the #3 team in the west will (probably) have to win against the #3/#2, then against GS. Tough road to hoe.
April 15, 201610 yr As someone mentioned earlier, the #2 or the #3 team in the west will (probably) have to win against the #3/#2, then against GS. Tough road to hoe. Yes it is. I can see Portland pushing someone to 6 games as well. I don't think Dallas or Houston will offer much resistance to anyone they face.
April 15, 201610 yr Yes it is. I can see Portland pushing someone to 6 games as well. I don't think Dallas or Houston will offer much resistance to anyone they face. Not sure if the Blazers can take LAC six due to the bigs. DJ averaged sixteen boards in 4 games. #DFS
