Spurs and Thunder

51-48 at halftime. I recommend loading a fresh bowl and watching the second half of this preview of the Western Conference Finals. Mariners opening day gets three pages worth of responses, but no one cares about a great NBA game?

I am watching it on mute and sipping a cab that drinks like a Merlot while my stoner housemate takes bong rips and blasts EDM in preparation for Coachella.

Craving Star Wars gummy snacks...Appears second hand weed smoke is becoming an issue...great basketball though.

Just like the Heat-Pacers game it's still regular season. Like you said they are headed towards a WCF and I plan on watching every second of that.

Impressive 2nd half by the Thunder though. Good for their confidence. Spurs 19 game win streak snapped.

That series is one I don't have a handle on. One hand OKC will have the two best players on the court(I think Westbrook is better than Parker but we could be splitting hairs) while the Spurs have the coaching advantage and better overall roster.

I do think OKC was very lucky to beat the Spurs two years ago(Ibaka and Perkins were like 18-20 combined in game 5 or something crazy like that). Harden was the big X factor in that series as the Spurs couldn't guard him at all.

I really like the Spurs over them. As for the East the Pacers might not even make the ECF the way they been playing. I think they'll struggled if they have to face the Nets or Chicago in the second round.

I could see Indiana getting taken to 7, but still have a hard time seeing Chicago or NJ beating them.

Don't understimate the Noah. A winner is a winner.

You're probably right. I don't know what is wrong with them but last year they didn't look very good winning only 49 games and gave Miami everything they had.

Underrated player. Great defender, rebounder, passer, motor, and has an improved offensive game. One of my favorite players in the league.

I dont think Noah is underrated. Everyone knows he is a beast by now.
