#2 Spurs vs #3 Thunder - 2016 Western Semifinals - Who Ya Got?

[xavieronly1]

How many wide open shots did Spurs miss in the last 5 mins? They made great defensive play to force turnover, but they couldn't drop a bucket.

[slugger22]

So obvious it almost seems rigged. Still the Spurs did not execute down the stretch.

LOL

Typically, fans notice the calls that don't go THEIR team's way.

I've done it, and so are you.

[spurs50fan]

Still opposed to playing Boban? How can it be any worse? Another blown 4th Qtr lead. Rebound #s were atrocious yet they were still close.

Despite what calls were/were not made, the Spurs are getting worked over. ISO ball is their game, of course they are better at it. Not to mention Pop is getting out coached by a rookie.

[hairyangryfella]

Credit where credit is due - OKC wouldn't have won this without Westbrook's performance. Well done son.

Hate seeing KD turn the ball over so much.

[devo]

Barkley just called out Dwight Howard on the postgame show LOL

[mfw13]

That was one ugly game....neither team looked anywhere near good enough to beat the Warriors, especially now that Curry is back.

Durant & Westbrook = 13 turnovers

Aldridge, Duncan, & Parker = 28% shooting

[Rip67vdub]

Congrats OKC fans on the win. 1 more and we'll see you in the WCF.

[tristan20]

Westbrook isn't a superstar LOL

Just turning it on vs the SPURS

[Kingchrispaul]

Don't mess with Texas, wow OKC forgot that memo. Congrats to Thunder I picked Spurs in 5 for this series. Still think Spurs win, but amazing game by Westbrook.

[Nyfancam01]

WESTBROOK is a bad man...

Can he shine in game 6 and end this???

[spurs50fan]

Gotta deal with 2 top 5 mvp candidates........

Pop needs to figure something out. No reason this team should be falling apart in the 4th

[pennywise]

Spurs in game 7. That's all I have to say.

[imbluestreak23]

why the hell does Westbrook dress like a damn homless man.

Have some class bruh. Geesh, miss the days of seeing MJ ARRIVE in suits, and LEAVE in suits.

[xavieronly1]

I wonder if Spurs still has "x-factor" to carry them. Manu was used to be that guy.

[The Admiral]

No Spurs No...please win it in 7! Can't believe we let another 4th quarter lead slip! If anyone can pull this one out of the mire it is Coach Pop but he seriously needs to reconsider his personnel changes and utilise more of his bench when the starters games start going south.

[tristan20]

Man GSW are so lucky to have these two titans battle it out

Spurs got to start giving minutes to Boban instead of West & Diaw. I know they can spread the floor nicely but you need a guy that can rebound and have an interior presence. Just by having him on the floor will make the opposition think twice before driving to the basket.

I was thinking the same thing! I'm all about the progression and the "new age" and realize that times change and all.

But these days the NBA is filled with immature kids.

Durant is playing with his cell phone, picking his nose, has his hands all around his mouth for some reason, and is wearing a backpack like he's ready to go to school?!

Westbrook is always dressed like he's a 16-year-old girl DYING for attention. The thirstiness of RW is incredible.

Both guys look like they're grumpy and scared and just weird. Staring at the table and their hands, no emotion or class.

I understand they can be tired, and these press conferences get boring ... but have some damn self respect and pride show through by your actions and words for once, and not your expensive 'attire'. Also, I get not everyone is a born public-speaker ... but these guys have been doing this for over 5 years now! You'd think they'd show some level of comfort and respect for the situation...

[/end old man rant]

[spurs50fan]

Well at least no one stepped out of bounds before Kawhi not-fouled RW. Could use some of the absolutist views about the rules right about now. Won't hold my breath though lol

[DUCKanay]

Had Spurs in 6. Does this series just show that the Thunder are underrated, SAS is overrated, or a mixture of both?

+1. Thank you. Just a straight up blown call this time. No explaining it.

He can also wear down the interior players and take up space on offense. Right now I would take his potential offense over anything West/Duncan/Diaw are giving. The rebounding numbers were pathetic yet they keep trotting these guys out there making Adams look like Olajuwon. We have game film of what he can do against this lineup. It's George Hill all over again. Too stubborn or loyal to pull the trigger.

I think its all about match ups (Thunder match up well with Spurs) It seems as though the only two teams Spurs have trouble with are Thunder and Clippers. I think they would be just about favorite against any other team, they match up well with Warriors, Cavs etc.
