OFFICIAL: Warriors (1) vs. Spurs (2) WCF Thread

[Durantula]

Seems like Kerr won't return for this series

[WaiverWire]

Kinda depends on health of Kawhi Leonard, and what % efficacy he will be at.

[JustinVerlander07]

Warriors sweep.

If LMA/Pau can play deep in the paint offensively, we'll see how it goes. There is a flaw to expose despite having 4 All-Stars. Just gotta expose it.

agree with above, however the whole spurs team showed they can play really good team defense last night.
If they can keep the defense like that for the whole series, it will be a tight matchup.

Go Spurs Go!

Warriors in 3.

They crushed Utah, on the road, in a game where Klay, Steph and Draymond had a grand total of 6 baskets. Six!

Durant played great and GSW won by 11.

Last year they would have lost by 11-15.

I really like the Spurs but they have no chance. This isn't a one-man band like Harden and you pray Capela and Anderson play well. And Lou gets hot off the bench. And Nene stays healthy.

Another one! I love it!


And I can't wait for everyone to overreact when the Warriors win game 1 just like everyone overreacted when the Rockets won game 1 and were shouting "Rockets in 5!". How did that series end? Oh yeah, Spurs in 6 in a blowout win on the road.

No, the Rockets aren't the Warriors. Well, the Jazz aren't the Spurs.

Win or lose, Spurs are gonna put up a fight. I've got Spurs in 6 but at the very least, they'll win 2 games in this series.

Want the Spurs but the Warriors will win the series regardless of how I voted and what I think of their dumba$$ 'Dubs' nickname.

Haha this

Spurs in 6

Hey bud, we sure missed you in the Cavs Raptors thread going on and on about how bad the Cavs defense was. Do you think you might come back for the ECF thread to bash the Cavs or are you just going to troll around in the Warriors thread???

That depends on how many Cavs fans come in here and start chirping.

Don't worry about us there will be more than enough Warrior fans to get the job done

[elee712]

We should eliminate Warrior Fans and Warrior Haters from these polls to get more of an unbiased opinion. Looking at who's voting for who, all the members who constantly bash the Warriors picked the Spurs and I'm sure all of the Warriors fans picked the Warriors to win the series.

It's more of a poll for who do you WANT to win the series rather than who do you THINK will win.

I agree with all of this but that will never happen.

I want the Spurs to win but picked Warriors in 5. Just glad it's not the Rockets otherwise it would be another sweep.

[drobfan8]

I'm the opposite.

On paper GS should roll us 4-1.

But I've picked SA in 6.

We'll see. I think SA will either get wiped quickly or we'll grind out a win.

The Cavs defense is not good.

But I didn't watch a minute of any game, I've been working during all of them so I just decided not to comment instead, hopefully that is ok with you. I know how sensitive you are, and how you were hiding through most of the regular season as your team put on a display of pathetic defense and mediocre Basketball.

I despise the Warriors and picked them to win in 6. I also wouldn't be surprised if they take it in 5. I'm just sitting here patiently waiting for the only series to matter in these entire playoffs.

[drobfan8]

It's 5:30am here in Aus, I hope the Spurs don't let us down and lay a turd.

Would love to see a good, intense game.

[cdub6238]

man..where was this attacking LMA at last series?

i guess the Warriors didnt learn from the run n gun Rockets that you cant miss bad shots against the Spurs

[pennywise]

Haha, where are all those "no chance"-ers now?

[teamterrellowen]

Aldridge looking good. Spurs spanked the Warriors in that 1st qtr.

[Devi8or]

Spurs can win this series on the shoulders of LMA and gasol down low. GS has no answer for big men who can actually play

[drobfan8]

Easy now, 1 quarter means absolutely zero.

I'll celebrate if we get to 4 wins.

Dubs are excellent in this type of situation.

[persona]

Very uncharacteristic of the warriors top three to miss free throws early.
Warriors should make their signature run and get right back in the game.

I disagree. That kind of dominance means a lot when literally everyone is giving you absolutely zero chance to win this series. Many saying Warriors in 5.

I'm not celebrating, but it means something.

AND it cracks me up that so many people just thought the Spurs would get trounced and here they are putting on a clinic. Shouldn't be surprising to anyone who actually watched the Spurs throughout the season.

[TWard]

Wow. This has definitely been surprising thus far but this game is faaaaaaaaaaaaaar from over.
